    摘要: Device for making and/or breaking a current including a pair of permanent contacts (3, 4), at least one of the contacts (3, 4) being movable. At least one permanent contact (3, 4) including a main portion (3.1, 4.1) having a free end and an end protection portion (3.2, 4.2) secured to the free end of the main portion (3.1, 4.1), designed to be in mechanical and electrical contact with the other permanent contact (4, 3) only during an operation for opening or closing the pair. The end protection portion (3.2, 4.2) is made of a single transition metal having a melting temperature that is strictly higher than that of the main portion (3.1, 4.1) to which it is secured, or of an oxide or carbide of such a metal, or even of zinc oxide. For application in particular to high- or medium-voltage circuit breakers.

    摘要: A contact material for a vacuum interrupter includes: (a) from 25 to 70% by volume of a highly conductive component selected from the group consisting of Ag, Cu and combinations thereof, and (b) from 30 to 75% by volume of an arc-proof component comprising a carbide of an element selected from the group consisting of Ti, Zr, Hf, V, Nb, Ta, Cr, Mo, W and combinations thereof, wherein the average grain size of the said arc-proof component is from 0.3 to 3 micrometers and the average grain distance of the arc-proof component is within the range of 0.1 to 1 micrometer. Contacts for a vacuum interrupter obtained from the contact material have improved wear resistance, large current interruption characteristic, wear resistance, and chopping characteristic, and low temperature rise characteristic.

    摘要: A layer of refractory metal or metal compound powder and a layer of low temperature melting metal or metal alloy powder are arranged together in the cavity of a compacting die and consolidated together to form an integrated two-layer compact which is thereafter heated above said low temperature but below the refractory powder''s sintering temperature to cause the pores of the compact''s refractory portion to be impregnated with the low temperature melting component while leaving an excess thereof forming a thin layer on the refractory portion. Because the two layers of the compact are consolidated together so that the compact may be moved safely without the layers separating during the heating, the use of a continuous furnace for the heating is commercially practical, and because the refractory portion is not sintered, the finished product''s dimensions can be accurately predetermined by the compacting die cavity dimensions. By heating the compact with its low temperature melting end down and resting as a refractory carrier surface having a plurality of depressions beneath this end, said layer is formed with a smooth exposed surface suitable for soldering or welding to a supporting metal part. Thus, a finished electric contact, for example, may be produced by the two steps of compacting and heating only, having a thick contact layer resistant to arc burning and contact welding trouble and a thin support layer that is solderable or weldable to a metal support or operating element.

    摘要: A silver base electrical contact material is described which contains uniformly in a silver matrix dispersed particles of nickel, nickel oxide, and at least one additive selected from the group consisting of vanadium, manganese, chromium, thallium, titanium, cobalt, and tungsten carbide. The contact material contains 1.3 to 24.8 wt % of nickel, 0.2 to 4.7 wt % of nickel oxide, 0.05 to 3 wt % of the additive, and balance silver. A superior silver base contact material having excellent welding and wear resistances is obtained by adding the metals and the metal carbide to a silver-nickel-nickel oxide contact material.
