Kontaktaufreißeinrichtung für Schutzschaltgeräte

摘要

The contact breaker (10) breaks a pair of electrical contacts comprising a fixed contact (11) and a movable contact (12). A pretensioned switch lever (17) for the movable contact can be moved into a ready position. To move the switching lever from the ready position in which it is maintained by a holding device (19), a pivotal dislocation is provided to apply an increased breaking force to the moveable contact. The slidable pivot (21) applies an initially high force, which decreases as the switching lever moves the contacts open. The switching lever comprises a first shank (18) which contacts the lever holding device (19), and a second shank (20) which contacts the moveable contact (12).
