专利摘要:
An improved low voltage vacuum switch is detailed which is operable to interrupt high D.C. continuous currents at voltages below the arc potential. An improved arc shield is provided which ensures that the switch can withstand significant D.C. overvoltages across the contacts when the switch is in the open position, even after repeated switch operation. The arc shield means comprises spaced-apart generally conic shield extending in parallel relationship from opposed ends of the switch with substantial overlap of the conic shields. These conic shields are disposed at an angle relative to the switch axis and minimize the chance for vaporized contact material to reach and condense upon the switch insulator body portion.

I
The invention relates to low voltage vacuum switches that are commonly used in electrical chemical process equipment as short circuits for selectively bypassing a separate series-connected electrolytic cell. Many such electrolytic cells are connected in series to a DC power source that provides a current of several thousand amperes with a total power voltage of about 400 V DC.
The closest in technical essence to the present invention is a vacuum short circuit of electric circuits of direct current, comprising an annular body made of insulating material, to the ends of which two flexible corrugated diaphragms with central holes are attached, in which cylindrical contacts with current leads are attached, however, after switching on the short circuits The contact material precipitates the arc’s annular shield, resulting in a drop in resistance along
ceramic insulating housing and under certain conditions, it is not possible the breakdown of the vacuum short circuit. This can cause damage to it.
The purpose of the invention is to increase the reliability of the shorting switch while at the same time increasing its service life.

The goal is achieved by the fact that a vacuum short circuitor of electric circuits of direct current, containing an annular body of insulating material, to the ends of which are attached two flexible corrugated diaphragms with centrifugal openings in which cylindrical contacts with current leads are attached,
20 is provided with a screen located inside the case between the lateral sides of the cylindrical contacts and the annular case, the screen is made in the form of two truncated cones. Different heights, arranged concentrically so that their sides are parallel between the frame and form an acute angle with the longitudinal axis of the short bushing cone smaller base
30 | connected to one of the cylindrical
contacts, which is the anode, and the outer truncated cone of a large base is connected to the end of the ring body.
A short circuit breaker can be provided with a disc-shaped annular screen, which is located inside the case between the corrugated diaphragm and the large base of the inner truncated cone, while a cylindrical contact is located in the opening of the annular screen, which is the cathode.
Figures 1 and 2 depict embodiments of a short-cut, section.
The vacuum shorting device contains an annular insulating body 1 ,; which is preferably made of ceramic. A pair of cylindrical contacts 2 and 3 with current leads 4 and
5 and a pair of flexible annular corrugated diaphragms b and 7 with an annular body 1 form a short-circuit housing. The inner surface of the corresponding part of the diaphragm 6 and 7 is soldered with hard solder to the corresponding cylindrical contacts 2 and 3, which pass through the diaphragm. On each end surface 8 and 9 of the annular body 1, a metallized surface is provided, and the outer surface of the diaphragm parts
6 and 7 soldered with hard solder
to these metallized surfaces 8 and 9. The current leads 4 and 5 are fixed at the respective ends of the cylindrical contacts 2 and 3 to provide an electrical connection of the short circuit to the electrical buses. These buses allow a short-circuit to shunt the electrolytic cell, in parallel to which a short-circuit connector is connected.
The screen is made in the form of two truncated cones - different heights. The inner cone 10 and outer cone 11 are concentrically located inside the switch. The inner cone 10 has a leg of the support 12, which is connected and supported by one cylindrical contact 3. The cone 10 extends from this leg of the support 12 at an acute angle to the switch axis towards the opposite flexible diaphragm 6. The angle between the leg of the support 12 and the conical screen is L0 °, so that the conical screen is located at an angle of 30 relative to the axis of the switch.
The outer cone 11 has a leg of the support 13, which is connected to the metallized surface 8 on the end surface of the annular insulator. The outer cone 11 is located parallel to the inner cone 10, but in the opposite direction to the flexible diaphragm 7.
In parallel, the spaced inner and outer conical screens substantially overlap in length and thereby provide an S-shaped path between the arc contacts and the annular insulating body.
The evaporating contact material is sprayed out from the arc between the contacts when they open and, as shown in FIG. 1, are deflected when the inner cone 10 of the screen 10 is pushed towards the flexible diaphragm 6. The contact material that does not condense on the diaphragm 6 has a tendency condensation on the conical screens and will deviate from the opposite diaphragm 7 before it can reach the inner surface of the annular insulator to condense on it.
The inner and outer cones 10 and 11 of the screen are predominantly metal elements that have a thermal expansion characteristic consistent with the solder connection of the leg of the support 13 to the metallized end of the surface of the ring insulator. Of metals, iron-nickel with high concentration is of particular advantage for the manufacture of the screen. nickel (42-46%).
In the open position, the distance between the ends of the arc-forming surface of the cylindrical contacts is about 0.32 cm. The gap between the conductive parts of the switch, which are connected to the O from the positive sides of the switch, exceeds 0.32 cm and is usually 0.47 see. Thus, the conical shields are parallel but displaced toward this distance. The ends of the respective conical screens are likewise displaced from the opposite portions of the diaphragms 6 and 7 in a similar manner by the same size. These gaps provide an exception to the arc path through the switch. I
The switch structure shown in Fig. 2 is basically the same as that of Fig. 1, with the addition of a disc-shaped annular screen 14. The annular screen 14 is connected and supported by a cylindrical contact 2, which is opposite to contact 3, from which the inner cone of the screen extends. The screen 14 is protective for the diaphragm 6, from which it is displaced by a small distance. The evaporating contact material, directed by the inner cone 10 of the screen, will collide with the screen: 14 rather than with the flexible diaphragm 6, and condense on the screen 14. For a conventional compact short circuit with a short axial length, the inner conical screen will be shortened so that to make room and space for
screen 14. The conical shape of the percutaneous parts that form the arc screen makes these parts structurally rigid, which ensures the maintenance of the correct position and position in space during high-temperature production processes.
The inner cone 10 of the shield is connected to a cylindrical contact, which is an anode. The sprayed contact material is sprayed mainly from contact with the most positive potential, i.e. from the anode switch as a result of the electron bombardment of this contact.
The connected inner cone of the screen should be in the immediate vicinity of the 6 m source spraying material as the condensation surface.
For newer short-circuits, the resistance of the insulating body is in the order of 1 MΩ. For short-circuit shapers with an annular arc screen, after 50 switchings, the resistance of the ring insulator may be from several hundred to several thousand ohms.
The proposed shorting device will operate several hundred times at very high currents, and the resistance of the ring insulator will be maintained at about 1 MΩ. A breakdown will not occur even when the voltage of 400 V is applied to the short circuit.
