Additionally. the synthetic resin body includes two inverted U-shaped extensions having an aperture on each side of the vacuum circuit interrupter housing.

3 Claims, 2 Drawing Figures VACUUM CIRCUIT INTERRUP'IER The invention relates to a vacuum circuit interrupter comprising a hermetically sealed housing, which is evacuated and including two contact members. One contact member is immovably mounted and supported by a stationary contact rod, which extends in sealed relationship out of the housing through an electric insulator. The other contact member is movable towards and from the stationary contact member and is supported by an axially movable contact rod, which extends out of the housing in sealed relationship by means of an electric insulator and a bellows. A coil is arranged around the housing and is coaxial with respect to the contact rods. One of the ends being electrically series connected to one of the contact rods, so that the current flow through the coil generates a magnetic longitudinal field at the two contact members. Such apparatus is known from the British patent specification l.258.0l 5.
The known vacuum circuit interrupter comprises a coil which is wound around the housing and is connected in series with the circuit of the vacuum interrupter. If the circuit interrupter has to be switched off, the axially movable contact member is withdrawn from the stationary contact member whereby an electric arc is formed between both contact members. The electric current, which has to be interrupted, flows through the coil and it generates a magnetic longitudinal field at the two contact. The magnetic field is substantially parallel to the arc to be interrupted and acts to keep the arc voltage low whereby the energy released in the circuit interrupter and converted into heat is restricted. Thereby the temperature of the interrupting parts is kept at a low level, so that contact erosion is reduced and the size of the contact members can be kept small. Furthermore the pressure of the gases which are released by the electric arc and which are bound to the surface of the metal parts will remain at a lower level at reduced temperature. Thereby a more favorable ratio is obtained between the volume of the circuit interrupter and its interrupting capacity.
The present invention has for its object to so arrange the coil around the housing of the vacuum circuit interrupter, that it will be suitable to function as the primary winding of a number of current transformers, which are present anyway for measuring and protecting purposes. Thereby the magnet coil will have a double function.
For this purpose the invention provides an apparatus of the type referred to above, which is characterized in that the coil is embedded in a solid insulating material and also forms the primary winding of one or more current transformers. 1
According to a further dev lopment the vacuum circuit interrupter together with he coil is completely embedded in synthetic resin, the synthetic resin body being provided with two plug connections, which are connected to the free contact rod and the free end of the coil respectively, by conductors extending in the synthetic resin body.
The synthetic resin body has two inverted U-shaped extensions, in which the turns of the coil are embedded and in the windows whereof the ring cores of the current transformers together with the secondary windings mounted thereon are accomodated.
The vacuum circuit interrupter according to present invention together with the current transformers forms a switching apparatus, which is very compact, completely protected from accidental contacts, safe in operation and maintenance free and can easily be included in completely insulated high voltage switching installations.
The invention will now further be explained in reference to the drawing, in which:
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal cross section of an interrupting apparatus according to present invention, and
FIG. 2 is a plan view of the vacuum circuit interrupter according to FIG. I, in which the bus bar system is omitted.
The vacuum circuit interrupter according to present invention mainly comprises a synthetic resin body 1, in which the vacuum circuit interrupter 2 and the coil 3 are embedded. As it appears from FIG. I the coil 3 consists of two turns, the number of turns being dependent on the necessary longitudinal magnetic field between the contact members 5, 6 and on the field intensity which is necessary for the current transformers. The vacuum circuit interrupter 2 comprises the housing 4, in which a vacuum is drawn, and the contact members 5, 6 disposed in said housing. The stationary contact member 5 is secured to the end of the stationary contact rod 7, which extends out of the housing 4 in a vacuum tight fashion through the electric insulator 8. The movable contact member 6 is secured to the end of the movable contact rod 9, passing through a second insulator l0 and sealed onto the housing 4 by means of a bellows, which is disposed in said insulator l0 and is not visible on the drawing. Movable contact rod 9 is coupled to the driving mechanism ll, which is sealed to the synthetic resin body 1 by means of a rubber bellows l2. Said rubber sealing 12 serves to achieve an electric sealing between the movable contact rod 9 and the synthetic resin body 1.
The synthetic resin body 1 is provided with the plug connectors 14, 15, of which plug connection 14 is connected to the stationary contact rod 7, and the other plug connection 15 is connected to the free end of the coil 3. Coil 3 with its other end is electrically connected to the movable contact rod 9 through the current collecting contact 16. In the present case the stationary contact rod 7 is connected to a bus bar system 17, whereas the free end of the coil 3 is connected to an electric cable 18.
Referring to FIG. 2, the synthetic resin body 1 is provided with two inverted U-shaped extensions 19, 20, defining the windows 21, 22, respectively. The turns of the coil 3 are embedded in the inverted U-shaped extensions l9 and 20. Four current transformers 23-26 are arranged in windows 21, 22 and the turns of the coil 3 constitute the primary winding of the current transformers. The current transformers 23-26 are ringcore transformers, which can be opened. Reference numbers 27-30 illustrate the bridging connections of the secondary windings of the current transformers.
Between the insulator 10 and the current collecting contact 16 is mounted an insulating ring member 32, which is also embedded in the synthetic resin body 1.
The synthetic resin body 1 has a reduced size, so that the spacing between the two plug connectors 14 and I5 is also small. In order to achieve the necessary voltage strength the synthetic resin body 1 at the plug connectors l4, 15 has a cylindrical shape and the cylindrical parts are provided with rubber sleeves 33 and 34 respectively, as is known from the German patent specification l.180.447, in order to establish an electrically sealed connection with the insulation of the bus bar 17 and the cable plug 35.
