Definitions
- the invention relates to a switching shaft for actuating switching contacts of a multi-pole electrical circuit breaker with levers made of die-cast which project from a central shaft shaft intended for a rotatable bearing for connecting the switching shaft to the switching contacts and to an energy store actuating the switching contacts.
- the invention further relates to a method for producing such a control shaft.
- a switching shaft of the type mentioned is by
- the above object is achieved in that the shaft shaft is formed by a section of a tubular semi-finished product made of a metal which has a higher melting point than the levers projecting from the shaft shaft, and in that the levers are fastened to the shaft shaft.
- the invention combines the advantages of control shafts which are produced from prefabricated individual parts by soldering or welding and those which are produced as die-cast parts according to the aforementioned DE 197 27 853 Cl.
- control shafts with any required length and with any required number of levers can be manufactured inexpensively.
- the advantageous properties of the new selector shaft are related to the fact that die-cast parts of smaller size can be produced than is the case according to the aforementioned DE 197 27 853 Cl. Among other things, this significantly reduces the effort for quality assurance.
- Relatively short switching shafts such as are required for circuit breakers with a normal number of poles and with a low to medium rated current, can be constructed according to one embodiment of the invention in such a way that all levers are formed by a coherent die-cast body, with sections enclosing the shaft shaft between the levers of the die-cast body are arranged.
- each lever it may be more advantageous to design each lever as a unit with concentric extensions adjoining on both sides. Exposed sections of the tubular semi-finished product can be present between the levers.
- An expedient method for producing switching shafts of the type described above comprises the following steps: provision of a shaft from a tubular semi-finished product,
- Figure 1 shows a switching shaft for a low-voltage circuit breaker in a longitudinal section.
- FIG. 2 shows an end view of the selector shaft according to FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 shows, in a representation corresponding to FIG. 1, a further exemplary embodiment of a switching shaft for a four-pole circuit breaker.
- FIG. 4 The process sequence in the manufacture of a selector shaft according to the invention is illustrated in FIG. 4.
- the selector shaft 1 has an inner shaft shaft 2, which is formed by a section of a tubular semi-finished product made of steel. Along its entire length, this shaft shaft 2 is enclosed by a coherent die-cast body 3, the lever 4, which projects approximately radially from the selector shaft 1 and has a contour which can be seen in FIGS. 1 and 2. Between the total of three levers there are the shaft shaft 2, jacket-like enclosing sections 5 of the die-cast body 3. The levers 4 have a through opening 6 near their outer end for receiving a hinge pin or bearing pin. These openings can be made in the die-cast body during manufacture of the selector shaft 1 3 be molded.
- the switching shaft 10 shown as a further example in FIG. 3 is provided for a four-pole circuit breaker.
- the selector shaft 10 contains a tubular shaft shaft 11.
- the shaft shaft 11 is not enclosed over its entire length by a die-cast body. Rather, levers 12 together with axially adjoining concentric extensions 13 form separate die-cast bodies 14 and 15. Three die-cast bodies 14 each have a lever 12 and the individual die-cast body 15 has two such levers.
- the amount of power to be transmitted can obviously be this or some other distribution and
- Design of the die-cast body can be provided. Exposed sections 15 of the shaft shaft 11 are present between the individual die-cast bodies 14.
- the method according to FIG. 4 begins with the
- a shaft shaft 11 which is formed by a section of an externally galvanized steel tube, as has already been explained.
- the shaft shaft 11 is placed in a split mold 20, only half of which is shown. Depending on the desired procedure, the
- Mold 20 dimensioned for individual or for all provided levers of the control shaft. After the mold 20 has been closed, a die-cast zinc material is introduced (arrow 21, only a storage vessel 22 is indicated instead of a complex technical foundry system). After adequate cooling, the switching shaft 10, which in this case is only partially completed, is removed from the casting mold 20. By successively inserting the control shaft 10 into the mold 20, the other die-cast body 14 can be attached to the shaft. Due to the galvanized surface of the
