Description

Relay contact combination suitable for inductive and capacitive load

Technical Field

The invention relates to an electric contact material, in particular to a relay contact combination suitable for inductive and capacitive loads.

Background

The Contact (Contact point) is the most important constituent element of the relay, the Contact is widely applied in production and life as the core component of the electronic device, the Contact material is the main factor restricting the performance of the Contact, and the developed and applied electrical Contact material is very important in the developed countries of the world industry.

With the industrial automation and product intellectualization, a large number of motors and L ED lamps are popularized and used, relays are not suitable for inductive and capacitive loads under the condition that the relays are mainly suitable for resistive loads, and electric arcs are generated to ablate contacts and generate adhesion when the contacts of the relays act, so that the relays fail to work, which is a fatal problem of the relays.

When the contacts are connected to a motor or a lamp load, they generate a surge current which is several times or tens of times the steady-state current. When an inductive load such as a motor is disconnected, the contacts generate a reverse voltage of several hundreds to several thousands volts, and an arc discharge phenomenon occurs between the contacts.

Both the surge current and the reverse voltage can cause the contacts to be greatly damaged, causing ablation of the contacts and adhesion.

The measures of increasing the distance between the contacts, prolonging the arc line, increasing the power consumption and the like are adopted, so that a circuit with limited energy consumption is not suitable.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention aims to provide a relay contact combination which can solve the problems of contact adhesion failure and the like in the action process of a relay and can adapt to inductive and capacitive loads by complementing and combining the electronic work function and the performance advantages.

The relay contact combination suitable for inductive and capacitive loads is characterized in that the moving contact material and the fixed contact material of the relay are respectively combined by different composite materials.

The composite material includes but is not limited to AgSnO₂AgCdO, AgZn, AgNi, AgPd, Agw, AgCU and the like.

The combination can select the electric contacts with different electronic energy according to the requirement of the electronic work function to combine the movable contact and the static contact of the relay.

Contact potential difference:

before contact: the electron energy is large when the work function is small, whereas the electron energy is small.

After contact: the state with large electron energy is transited to the position with lower energy, the metal Fermi level is leveled, and a flash electric field is formed to prevent the electrons from further diffusing.

The calculation formula of the work function is as follows:

E＝-E₀+E_x

wherein E is₀Represents the potential of a monovalent electron; e_xRepresenting the kinetic energy of the monovalent electrons.

When a metal material in a vacuum is heated to a sufficiently high temperature, electrons in the metal escape from the metal, known as thermionic emission; the electron emission is different for different metal materials because the electron emission is different.

The movable contact and the static contact of the relay in the prior art are generally made of the same composite material, and different contact materials have different performances and have advantages and disadvantages. AgSnO₂The material is environment-friendly and nontoxic, and hasExcellent fusion welding resistance and arc ablation resistance, high strength and hardness, high contact resistance and quick temperature rise; the AgCdO material has excellent arc erosion resistance, good wear resistance, good fusion welding resistance and low contact resistance, but Cd has certain toxicity and pollution; the AgZn material has the advantages of good electric wear resistance, strong current impact resistance and the like; the AgNi material has low contact resistivity, good arc transfer characteristic, high temperature resistance, no abrasion, oxidation resistance and low price; but has low fusion welding resistance and poor arc ablation resistance under high current.

The invention finds that the contact electric effects of two alloy contacts made of different materials are different through continuous practice, and provides a relay which uses the electric contacts made of different materials to combine a movable contact and a static contact according to the contact electric effects of different metal materials. The combination of the electric contacts is designed according to the principle that the advantages of contact materials in the existing market are mutually exclusive and the contact electric effect of metal and metal is realized, the movable contact and the static contact made of different materials are combined to form a new relay, and experiments repeatedly prove that the application characteristics of the original relay are effectively improved, and a complementary effect and a new contact electric effect are generated; the problem of bonding of the relay is effectively solved, and the service life of the relay under the conditions of inductive and capacitive loads is greatly prolonged. The invention is suitable for various relays, and only different material contacts are selected to be combined according to the use requirements of various relays.

2. The combination of the electric contact with large electronic work function and the electric contact with small work function is selected, and because the test is complicated and the classification is difficult, the electric contact manufacturer is recommended to provide the data of the electronic work function amount of the electric contact.

3. The complementary combination is based on the basic performance advantages and disadvantages of various electrical contacts:

example (c): the same AgNi electric contact is used for the moving and static of a 46F-A-12V/5A relay, the relay is applied to a touch switch of an intelligent household system and is used as a < capacitive load > for switching a lamp switch

The actual lamp load is only a few W to dozens of W of power, the relay bonding failure is often generated in use and cannot work,

aiming at the characteristic that the AgNi electric contact has poor fusion welding resistance under the condition of large current, the AgSn02 electric contact with better arc erosion resistance under the condition of large current is selected to be combined with the AgNi electric contact with < the operating point > and < the still operating point > to generate good effect.

The metal-to-metal contact electrical effect is the work function of metal electrons:
