Embodiment Construction

[0008] figure 2 Components of circuit breaker 100 with integrated contact receptacles are depicted. The circuit breaker 100 includes a housing 102 and separable contacts 104 ( figure 2 shown in ). In the illustrated embodiment, the separable contacts include a first contact 106 fixed within a housing 102 , and a second contact 108 that is movable. In this way, at least one of the first contact 106 and the second contact 108 can move relative to the other, and in this case, the second contact 108 can move relative to the first contact 106 to open and close. The contacts 104 are separable.

[0009] The circuit breaker 100 also includes a trip mechanism 112 ( figure 2 ), the trip mechanism 112 operably connects at least one of the first and second contacts 106 , 108 to selectively open the separable contacts 104 . The first terminal member 114 is electrically connected to the first contact 106 and the second terminal member 116 is connected to the second contact 108 .

Abstract

A circuit breaker includes a housing, separable contacts, a trip mechanism, a first terminal member, and a second terminal member. The separable contacts are received in the housing and include a first contact and a second contact. At least one of the contacts is moveable with respect to the other to open and close the separable contacts. The trip mechanism can include a bimetal strip and selectively open the separable contacts. The first terminal member includes a first socket configured to receive a pin located on an associated bus structure. The first terminal member is electrically connected with the first contact. The second terminal member includes a second socket configured to receive another pin located on the associated bus structure. The second terminal can contact the bimetal strip and is electrically connected with the second contact. The first and second sockets can be received in the housing.

Description

Background technique [0001] Circuit breakers used in aircraft electrical systems provide overcurrent protection and also function as switches that switch equipment on and off. In this type of circuit breaker, the push-pull handle on the circuit breaker is moved outward from the inward position to open the corresponding load circuit. In overload or fault conditions, this action can be manual or automatic. When the push-pull handle is moved inward from the outward position, the load circuit is re-energized. [0002] Referring to FIG. 1 , one type of circuit breaker used in aircraft electrical systems is a plug-in circuit breaker 10 . The plug-in circuit breaker 10 includes a push-pull handle 12 similar to that described above. The aircraft electrical system includes a bus structure 14 on which a plurality of pins 16 (only two are shown in FIG. 1 ) are provided. The known plug-in circuit breaker 10 includes two sockets 18 each receiving a corresponding pin 16 provided on the ...
