Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to an electromagnetic contactor that opens and closes a main circuit. [Background technology]

[0002] A known conventional electromagnetic contactor is a device that includes a contact mechanism in which a pair of fixed contacts with fixed contacts and a long movable contactor that can be attached to and detached from each of the fixed contacts of the pair of fixed contacts are housed in a storage case made of an insulating material, an electromagnet unit that drives the movable contactor in the direction in which the movable contactor of the contact mechanism attaches to and detaches from the pair of fixed contacts, and a rotation regulating section that regulates the rotation of the movable contactor when it attaches to and detaches from the pair of fixed contacts.

[0003] The rotation restricting portion is composed of four metal sliding guides that are arranged in two pairs, spaced apart in the longitudinal direction of the movable contactor and sandwiching the movable contactor from the lateral direction, and extend in the direction in which the movable contactor moves back and forth. When the movable contactor moves in the contact and separation direction, the four sliding guides come into contact with the lateral sides of the movable contactor, restricting its rotation and preventing poor conductivity when opening and closing the main circuit, thereby improving reliability.

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Patent Publication No. 2021-118111 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] However, the electromagnetic contactor of Patent Document 1 has four metal sliding guides arranged near the movable contact, which makes it easy for the insulation between the contacts of the movable contact to deteriorate. Also, the arc generated by the opening operation of the movable contact is likely to short-circuit to the sliding guides, which causes problems in terms of breaking performance.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention aims to provide an electromagnetic contactor that regulates the rotation of the movable contactor to avoid poor conductivity when opening and closing the main circuit, thereby improving reliability, while also resolving the problems of reduced insulation between the contacts of the movable contactor and reduced interrupting performance. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, an electromagnetic contactor according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises a pair of fixed contacts having fixed contacts, a long movable contactor having a pair of movable contacts that can be brought into contact with and separated from the fixed contacts of the pair of fixed contacts, and an electromagnet unit that drives a movable plunger connected to the movable contactor via a movable contactor support portion, thereby driving the movable contactor in an advancing / retreating direction so as to bring it into contact with and separate from the pair of fixed contacts, and a rotation regulating portion is disposed near the movable contactor support portion to regulate rotation of the movable contactor as it moves into and out of contact with the pair of fixed contacts. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] According to the electromagnetic contactor of the present invention, a rotation restriction section that restricts the rotation of the movable contact as it moves back and forth is located near the movable contact support section that connects the movable contact and the movable plunger, which is located at a position separated from the contacts of a pair of fixed contacts and movable contacts.By restricting the rotation of the movable contact, poor conductivity when opening and closing the main circuit is avoided, improving reliability, while also preventing a decrease in insulation between the contacts of the movable contact and a decrease in interrupting performance.

[First embodiment]

[0011] An electromagnetic contactor according to a first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, the electromagnetic contactor 1 of this embodiment includes a contact mechanism 2 and an electromagnet unit 3 that drives a movable contact of the contact mechanism 2, which will be described later. The contact mechanism 2 and the electromagnet unit 3 are housed in a sealed state in the same space within a storage case 6. The storage case 6 is composed of a resin upper case 4 and a resin lower case 5 joined to the upper case 4. Arc-extinguishing gas is sealed into the storage case 6 through a gas inlet pipe 7. After the arc-extinguishing gas is sealed into the storage case 6, the gas inlet pipe 7 is cut in the middle and the opening is closed. The upper case 4 of the storage case 6 is provided with an attachment portion 8 for attaching to another member.

[0012] The contact mechanism 2 comprises a pair of fixed contacts 11, 12 (hereinafter referred to as the first fixed contact 11 and the second fixed contact 12) fixed to the upper case 4 by insert molding, and a movable contact 13 that can be brought into contact with and separated from the first fixed contact 11 and the second fixed contact 12. The first fixed contact 11 and the second fixed contact 12 are made of a conductive metal material and fixed at a predetermined distance in the left-right direction to the upper case 4. The first fixed contact 11 on the left side has a fixed contact 11a formed on its lower end surface, and the second fixed contact 12 on the right side has a fixed contact 12a formed on its lower end surface. The movable contactor 13 is a conductive plate made of conductive metal and extending long in the left-right direction, and is supported by a contact support 14, a contact spring 15, and a spring retainer 16 connected to a movable plunger 21 (described later) of the electromagnet unit 3. The contact support 14, the contact spring 15, and the spring retainer 16 correspond to the movable contactor support portion in the present invention. A movable contact 13a that contacts the fixed contact 11a of the first fixed contact 11 on the left side is formed on the upper surface of the left end of the movable contact 13, and a movable contact 13b that contacts the fixed contact 12a of the second fixed contact 12 on the right side is formed on the upper surface of the right end of the movable contact 13. The lower part of the contact support 14 is fixed to the upper end of the movable plunger 21, and a pair of legs 16b of a spring presser 16 that has a top plate 16a and a pair of legs 16b extending downward from both ends of the top plate 16a is fixed to the upper part of the contact support 14. The movable contact 13 is arranged to penetrate between the top plate 16a of the spring presser 16 and the contact support 14 in the left-right direction, and is sandwiched between the top plate 16a of the spring presser 16 and the contact spring 15 in a state where it is constantly biased upward by the contact spring 15 that is arranged between the movable contact 13 and the contact support 14, thereby supporting the movable contact 13.

[0013] As shown in Figure 1, the electromagnet unit 3 includes a movable plunger 21, an armature 22, a spool 24, an excitation coil 25, an excitation yoke 31, an auxiliary yoke 32, a permanent magnet 33, and a return spring 34, and is located below the contact mechanism 2 inside the storage case 6. The movable plunger 21 is a round shaft-shaped member made of a magnetic material and extending in the vertical direction. An armature 22 made of a disk-shaped magnetic material with a diameter larger than that of the movable plunger 21 is fixed to the lower end of the movable plunger 21. The contact support 14 fixed to the upper end of the movable plunger 21 moves upward as the movable plunger 21 moves upward, and moves downward as the movable plunger 21 moves downward. The movable contactor 13 moves upward as the contact support 14 moves upward, and moves downward as the contact support 14 moves downward. A cylindrical sliding collar 26 is disposed below the outer periphery of the movable plunger 21, and a cylindrical plunger ring 27 is disposed above it. The excitation yoke 31 includes a U-shaped upper yoke body 35 with an opening facing downward, and a lower yoke body 36 that is connected to the upper yoke body 35 and closes the opening of the upper yoke body 35. Movable plunger through-holes 37a and 37b, through which the movable plunger 21 passes, are formed in an upper plate 35a of the upper yoke body 35 and the lower yoke body 36.

[0014] The upward movement of the movable plunger 21 is restricted by the armature 22 abutting against the lower periphery of the movable plunger through-hole 37b of the lower yoke body 31b, and the downward movement of the movable plunger 21 is restricted by the armature 22 abutting against the upper surface of the auxiliary yoke 32. The spool 24 is a cylindrical member extending in the vertical direction and surrounding the outer periphery of the movable plunger 21. An excitation coil 25 for driving the movable plunger 21 is wound around the outer periphery of the spool 24. This excitation coil 25 is electrically connected to a terminal 38. The permanent magnet 33 is an annular member and is installed below the lower yoke body 36 of the excitation yoke 31 and around the armature 22 of the movable plunger 21. An annular plate-shaped auxiliary yoke 32 made of a magnetic material is installed below the permanent magnet 33. The permanent magnet 33 is attached to the lower surface of the lower yoke body 36, and the auxiliary yoke 32 is installed in a state of being attached to the lower surface of the permanent magnet 33. The return spring 34 is installed between the lower end surface of the sliding collar 26 and the armature 22 fixed to the movable plunger 21 so as to surround the movable plunger 21, and separates the movable contactor 13 from the first fixed contactor 11 and the second fixed contactor 12 when the excitation state of the excitation coil 25 is released.

[0015] Fig. 2 shows the internal structure of the electromagnetic contactor 1 excluding the upper case 4 (first fixed contactor 11, second fixed contactor 12) and the lower case 5. Fig. 3 shows the internal structure of Fig. 2 from above, and Fig. 4 shows a cross section of the internal structure shown in Fig. 2. 2 and 3, the contact support 14 of this embodiment is a resin member formed in a substantially rectangular shape when viewed from above. As shown in Fig. 4, the upper end of the movable plunger 21 is fixed to the lower part of the contact support 14 by insert molding, and the lower ends of the pair of legs 16b of the spring presser 16 are fixed to the upper part of the contact support 14 by insert molding. The movable contactor 13 is sandwiched between the top plate 16a of the spring presser 16 and the contact spring 15 while penetrating in the left-right direction, and is arranged with a small gap between its front-rear side and the pair of legs 16b of the spring presser 16.

[0016] 3, a sliding member 40 made of a non-magnetic metal plate is fixed to the side of the contact support 14 by insert molding. The sliding member 40 is formed by bending a strip-shaped metal body into a U-shape and includes a pair of opposing sliding portions 40a, 40b and a connecting portion 40c that connects the pair of sliding portions 40a, 40b. The pair of sliding portions 40a, 40b are fixed to the side surfaces of the contact support 14 facing the front-rear direction, and the connecting portion 40c is fixed to the side surface of the contact support 14 facing the right direction.

[0017] As shown in FIG. 2, a rotation restricting member 41 made of a non-magnetic metal plate is fixed to the upper plate 35a of the upper yoke body 35 that constitutes the excitation yoke 31 of the electromagnet unit 3. This rotation restricting member 41 includes a pair of fixing portions 42 that are spaced apart in the left-right direction and fixed to the upper plate 35a by crimping, and a pair of flat rotation restricting portions 43a, 43b that connect to the front-rear edges of the pair of fixing portions 42 and rise upward. As shown in FIG. 4, a through-hole 41a through which the plunger ring 27 is inserted is formed in the center of the rotation restricting member 41. The pair of rotation restricting portions 43a, 43b face a pair of sliding portions 40a, 40b of a sliding member 40 that is fixed to the side of the contact support 14, as shown in FIG.

[0018] Next, the operation of the electromagnetic contactor 1 of the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. Now, assume that the exciting coil 25 of the electromagnet unit 3 is in a non-excited state, and the electromagnet unit 3 is in a released state where it is not generating an exciting force that moves the movable plunger 21 upward. In this released state, the movable plunger 21 is urged downward by the return spring 34, and the armature 22 is attracted to the auxiliary yoke 32 by the action of the permanent magnet 33. Therefore, the movable contactor 13 connected to the movable plunger 21 is spaced downward a predetermined distance from the first fixed contactor 11 and the second fixed contactor 12. Therefore, the current path between the first fixed contactor 11 and the second fixed contactor 12 is interrupted (the contact mechanism 2 is in an open state). When current is applied to the exciting coil 25 of the electromagnet unit 3 from this open state of the contact mechanism 2, an exciting force is generated in the electromagnet unit 3, which pushes the movable plunger 21 upward against the attractive force of the permanent magnet 33 to the auxiliary yoke 32 and the biasing force of the return spring 34, and the armature 22 is attracted to the lower surface of the lower yoke body 36 of the exciting yoke 31. As the movable plunger 21 moves upward in this way, the movable contactor 13 connected to the movable plunger 21 also moves upward, and both contacts 13a, 13b of the movable contactor 13 come into contact with the fixed contact 11a of the first fixed contactor 11 and the fixed contact 12a of the second fixed contactor 12 with the contact pressure of the contact spring 15, and the current path between the first fixed contactor 11 and the second fixed contactor 12 is brought into a conducting state (closed state of the contact mechanism 2). When the energization of the excitation coil 25 of the electromagnet unit 3 is stopped from the closed state of the contact mechanism 2, the excitation force that moves the movable plunger 21 upward in the electromagnet unit 3 disappears, and the movable plunger 21 moves downward due to the biasing force of the return spring 34, and the armature 22 is attracted to the auxiliary yoke 32 by the action of the permanent magnet 33. When the movable plunger 21 moves downward, the movable contactor 13 connected to the movable plunger 21 moves downward away from the first fixed contactor 11 and the second fixed contactor 12, entering an opening start state.

[0019] When the movable contactor 13 moves downward due to the open contact state of the contact mechanism 2, both contacts 13a, 13b attempt to rotate in a direction away from the fixed contact 11a of the first fixed contactor 11 and the fixed contact 12a of the second fixed contactor 12. The rotation of the movable contactor 13 is transmitted to the contact support 14 via a pair of legs 16b of the spring retainer 16 located close to the front-rear side of the movable contactor 13. The rotation of the contact support 14 is restricted when a pair of sliding portions 40a, 40b of a sliding member 40 fixed to the side surface of the contact support 14 abuts against a pair of rotation restricting portions 43a, 43b of a rotation restricting member 41 facing the pair of sliding portions 40a, 40b of the sliding member 40 provided on the contact support 14 abuts against and slides against the rotation restricting member 41 provided on the electromagnet unit 3, thereby restricting the rotation of the movable contactor 13. Furthermore, when the movable contactor 13 moves upward due to the closed state of the contact mechanism 2, a pair of sliding portions 40a, 40b of the sliding member 40 provided on the contact support 14 abuts and slides against the rotation restriction member 41 provided on the electromagnet unit 3, thereby restricting the rotation of the movable contactor 13.

[0020] Next, the effects of the electromagnetic contactor 1 of this embodiment will be described. When the movable contactor 13 moves upward and downward, a pair of sliding portions 40a, 40b of the sliding member 40 fixed to the contact support 14 abuts and slides against the rotation restricting portions 43a, 43b of the rotation restricting member 41 fixed to the upper plate 35a of the upper yoke body 35 of the electromagnet unit 3, thereby restricting the rotation of the movable contactor 13. As a result, the electromagnetic contactor 1 of this embodiment avoids poor conductivity between both contacts 13a, 13b of the movable contactor 13 and the fixed contact 11a of the first fixed contactor 11 and the fixed contact 12a of the second fixed contactor 12, thereby ensuring sufficient reliability of the main circuit.

[0021] Furthermore, the sliding member 40 and rotation restricting member 40 that restrict the rotation of the movable contactor 13 are disposed at positions that are sufficiently separated in the vertical direction from the contacts of the movable contactor 13 (contacts 13a, 13b of the movable contactor 13, and fixed contacts 11a of the first fixed contactor 11 and fixed contacts 12a of the second fixed contactor 12), so there is no deterioration in insulation between the contacts of the movable contactor 13. Furthermore, even if an arc is generated by the opening operation of the movable contactor 13, the arc does not short-circuit to the sliding member 40 and rotation restricting member 40 that are sufficiently separated in the vertical direction from the movable contactor 13, so that sufficient breaking performance can be ensured.

[0022] Furthermore, the contact support 14 of this embodiment, which is made of resin, functions as an insulating member that separates the main circuit flowing through the first fixed contactor 11, the second fixed contactor 12, and the movable contactor 13 from the drive circuit flowing through the electromagnet unit 3, thereby providing an electromagnetic contactor 1 that ensures a sufficient insulation distance between the main circuit and the drive circuit. In this embodiment, the sliding member 40 formed by bending a strip-shaped metal body into a U-shape is fixed to the side of the contact support 14, but the same effect can be achieved by fixing the sliding member 40 formed by bending a strip-shaped metal body into a U-shape to the side of the contact support 14.

[0023] [Second embodiment] Next, Fig. 5 shows the internal structure of the electromagnetic contactor of the second embodiment, excluding the upper case 4 (first fixed contact 11, second fixed contact 12) and the lower case 5. Fig. 6 shows the internal structure of Fig. 5 from above, and Fig. 7 shows a cross section of the internal structure shown in Fig. 6. Components that are the same as those in the first embodiment are given the same reference numerals, and descriptions thereof will be omitted. 5 and 6, the member designated by reference numeral 44 is the resin contact support 44 of the second embodiment. As shown in Fig. 7, the lower ends of the pair of legs 16b of the spring retainer 16 are fixed to the upper part of the contact support 44 by insert molding. In addition, a pair of sliding members 45 formed from a non-magnetic metal plate material are fixed to the lower part of the contact support 44 by insert molding. The pair of sliding members 45 are plate materials bent into an L shape and include a connecting portion 46 that extends in the front-rear direction and connects to the upper part of the movable plunger 21, and a sliding portion 47 that rises from the end of the connecting portion 46.

[0024] 5, a rotation restricting member 50 made of a non-magnetic metal plate is fixed to the upper plate 35a of the upper yoke body 35 that constitutes the excitation yoke 31 of the electromagnet unit 3. This rotation restricting member 50 has a fixed portion 52 that is crimped to the upper plate 35a and has a through hole 51 formed therein for inserting the plunger ring 27, and a pair of flat plate-shaped rotation restricting portions 53a and 53b that rise from the edge of the through hole 51. As shown in FIG. 6, the pair of rotation restricting portions 53a and 53b face sliding portions 47 of a pair of sliding members 45 that are fixed to the contact support 44 and the movable plunger 21.

[0025] In the electromagnetic contactor 1 of this embodiment, when the contact mechanism 2 is in the open state and the movable contactor 13 moves downward, if both contacts 13a, 13b attempt to rotate in a direction away from the fixed contact 11a of the first fixed contactor 11 and the fixed contact 12a of the second fixed contactor 12, the rotation of the movable contactor 13 is transmitted to the contact support 44 via a pair of legs 16b of the spring presser 16 that are located close to the front-rear side portions of the movable contactor 13. The sliding portions 47 of the pair of sliding members 45 fixed to the contact support 44 come into contact with the pair of rotation restricting portions 53a, 53b of the rotation restricting member 50 that face the sliding portions 47, thereby restricting the rotation. In this way, when the movable contactor 13 attempts to rotate, the sliding portions 47 of the pair of sliding members 45 fixed to the contact support 44 come into contact with and slide against the pair of rotation restricting portions 53a, 53b of the rotation restricting member 50 fixed to the electromagnet unit 3, thereby restricting the rotation of the movable contactor 13. In addition, when the movable contactor 13 moves upward due to the closed state of the contact mechanism 2, the sliding portions 47 of the pair of sliding members 45 of the contact support 44 abut and slide against the pair of rotation regulating portions 53a, 53b of the rotation regulating member 50, thereby restricting the rotation of the movable contactor 13.

[0026] Therefore, in the electromagnetic contactor 1 of the second embodiment, the rotation of the movable contactor 13 when it moves upward and downward is restricted, thereby avoiding poor conductivity between both contacts 13a, 13b of the movable contactor 13 and the fixed contact 11a of the first fixed contactor 11 and the fixed contact 12a of the second fixed contactor 12, and fully ensuring the reliability of the main circuit. Furthermore, the sliding portions 47 of the pair of sliding members 45 that restrict the rotation of the movable contactor 13 and the pair of rotation restricting portions 53a, 53b are positioned at positions that are sufficiently spaced apart in the vertical direction from the contacts of the movable contactor 13, so that the insulation between the contacts of the movable contactor 13 is not reduced, and even if an arc is generated by the opening operation of the movable contactor 13, the arc does not short-circuit to the sliding portions 47 of the pair of sliding members 45 and the pair of rotation restricting portions 53a, 53b, which are sufficiently spaced apart in the vertical direction from the movable contactor 13, so that interrupting performance can be sufficiently ensured.

[0027] Furthermore, because the connecting portion 46 of the pair of sliding members 45 is connected to the upper portion of the movable plunger 21, the impact force of the sliding portion 47 caused by contact with the pair of rotation restricting portions 53a, 53b can be released to the movable plunger 21. This improves the durability of the resin contact support 44, which is less susceptible to impact force. [Explanation of symbols]
