GEORGE CARTRIDGE FUSE PULL-OUT SWITCH 2 Sheets-Sheet 2 Filed March 22, 1962 United States Patent 3,292,738 (JAR'IRIDGE FUSE PULL-GUT SWITCH Meivin .I. George, Lexington, Ky assignorto Square 1) Company, Park Ridge, Ilh, a corporation of Michigan Filed Mar. 22, 1962;, Ser. No. 131,529 8 Claims. (@I. ass-133 This invention relates to fusible units including fuse blocks and pull-out type cartridge fuse holders receivable therein.
In certain former constructions, contact jaws provided in the fuse blocks were adapted to receive contact blade extensions of fuse clips on the fuse holder in such a manner that the pressure between a cartridge fuse and its fuse clips actually decreased upon insertion of the fuse holder in the fuse block. In certain other former constructions, pressure between a cartridge fuse and its fuse clips increased upon insertion of the fuse holder in the fuse block, but the increase in pressure was limited by engagement of one portion of each fuse clip with another portion thereof. In a fusible unit constructed in accordance with the present invention, the pressure between a fuse and its fuse clips increases upon insertion of the fuse holder in the fuse block, and the increase in pressure is not limited by engagement of one portion of each fuse clip with another portion thereof. Thus, a better electrical connection between a fuse and its fuse clips is made than formerly.
An object of the invention is to provide an improved fusible unit.
Another object is to provide a cartridge fuse pull-out unit wherein improved electrical connections are made between the fuses and the fusible unit.
. Yet another object is to provide a more compact fusible unit adapted to accommodate twice the number of fuses accommodated by former fusible units of the same size.
A further object is to provide a cartridge fuse pull-out unit wherein the fuse block is provided with an improved arrangement of live and dead pockets for the fuse holder to plug into in on and off positions, respectively.
Still another object is to provide an improved'duplex cartridge fuse pull-out unit having a fuse block adapted to be plugged into an electrical panelboard and having a pair of fuse holders each adapted to hold two cartridge fuses for respective connection to opposite sides of a load connected directly across two power lines.
Other objects will appear when the following specification is considered along with the accompanying drawings in which:

FIGURE 8 is a sectional view taken substantially along line 8-8 of FIGURE 7 but omitting the line terminal clips and including a fuse holder; and
FIGURE 9 is a sectional view of a fuse holder as shown in FIGURE 8, but removed from the fuse block.
A fusible unit constructed in accordance with the invention may include a fuse block or base assembly 10 3,202,738: Patented Aug. 24-, 1965 and a pair of identical generally rectangular fuse holders or cover assemblies 12, 12 removably received in the fuse block It) as shown in FIGURES 1 and 3. The fuse block is molded of an insulating material and is provided with a pair of generally rectangular recesses 14, 14 (FIG- URES 4 and 7) opening to the front thereof and separated by a dividing wall 15. The walls defining each recess 14 are suitably grooved to slidably receive an insulating barrier 16 parallel to the wall 15 and bisecting the respective recess. The barriers 16 are formed of a material having high dielectric strength.
Each fuse holder 12 has two pairs of fuse clips 20, 20 secured to an inner side thereof in a rectangularly spaced arrangement as by screws 21 (FIGURE 9), and a handle 22 pivotally mounted on an outer or front side thereof. The fuse holders 12, 12 are adapted to be received in the recesses 14, 14, respectively, each fuse holder being provided on the inner side thereof with a central longitudinally extending groove 24 (FIGURE 9) adapted to receive one of the barriers 16 between adjacent pairs of the fuse clips 29, 20. Each fuse holder 12 is thus adapted to carry two cartridge fuses 25, 25 respectively in the pairs of fuse clips 26, 20. The outer jaw of each fuse clip 20 is provided with a contact blade extension 25.
For a purpose to be later described, on each fuse holder 12 the spacing of the fuse clips 26 2d of each pair longitudinally of the fuse holder is such that if the fuse holder is considered to be formed of four quarters sections extending consecutively lengthwise thereof, the clips 2t), 26 may be roughly considered to be secured to the first and third quarter sections.
A mounting clip 29 is secured by a screw 36 to the rear or inner side of the fuse block 10 adjacent one end, and adjacent the other end a pair of identical line terminal clips 31 and 32 are provided, the clips 31 and 32 being adapted to receive a pair of panelboa-rd branch bus bars or connectors (not shown) fed respectively by a pair of power supply lines.
A wall 34 defining the inner ends of the recesses 14 is provided with a plurality of rectangular holes 35 and 36 alternately spaced along the longitudinal edges of the recesses. The holes 35 extend completely through the wall 34 and each hole 35 receives one leg 38 of a. substantially L-shaped contact jaw 4i), one of which is shown in perspective in FIGURE 5, the assembled relationship being best shown in FIGURE 8. The holes 36 may extend completely through the Wall 34, except for a hole or pocket designated 36a, which for shielding purposes is closed at its inner end by a thickened portion of the wall 34'. For a purpose to be later described, the spacing of the holes 35, 3d, and 36a is such that if the wall 34 forming the inner ends of the recesses 14 is considered to be formed of four quarter sections extending consecutively lengthwise of the recesses, the holes 35 may be roughly considered to be in the first and third quarter sections, the holes 36 in the second and fourth quarter sections, and the hole 36a in the second quarter section. The first and third quarters of the Wall 34 are provided with thickened portions into which are threaded rom the rear of the wall 34 the shanks of a plurality of self-tappinng screws 42, which extend through legs 39 of the contact jaws 4-0 to secure them in position with the legs 33 thereof in the holes 35.
The screws 42 also secure various conductive straps or connectors in position. Thus, as shown in FIG- URES 7 and 8, in the third quarter of the Wall 34, a strap 43 and a connector 44 electrically connect the two inner contact jaws 4th to the line terminal clip 31, which is secured to the connector 44 by means such as a screw t5, and a generally U-shaped connector 46 and a connector 47 electrically connect the two outer contact jaws 40 to the line terminal clip 32, which is secured to the connector 47 by means such as a'screw 48. Further, as shown in FIGURES 4, 6, and 7, in the first quarter of the wall portion 34, a plurality of conductive straps 49 are secured, the straps 49 extending through a wall 50 of the fuse block and respectively being portions of a plurality of identical load terminals 51, 52, 53, and 54.
The aforementioned spacing of the fuse clips 20 on the fuse holders 12, 12 and of the holes 35, 3:6, and 36a in the wall 34 enables each fuse holder to be received in a recess 14 in either of two positions relative thereto. 'In an on position, the contact blade extensions 26 enter the holes 35 for electrical connection to the legs 38 of the respective contact jaws 40. In a reversed off position, the contact blade extensions 26 enter the holes 36 (one contact blade extension of one fuse holder entering the pocket 36a) and make no electrical connection. The fuse block 1% is provided with on and off indicia adjacent diagonally opposite corners of the recesses 14, as shown in FIGURE 4. When a fuse holder 12 is inserted in a recess, a visual indication of whether it is in off or on position is afforded by the indicia which is left uncovered due to a relieved corner portion of the fuse holder observable at the right thereof in FIGURE 3.
When a fuse holder 12 has a pair of fuses 25 therein and is not in the fuse block it the free end portions of the contact blade extensions 26 of adjacent fuse clips 20 are spaced apart a predetermined distance which is greater than the distance between the legs 38 of the mating contact jaws 40 in the fuse blocks, as shown in exaggerated form in FIGURE 9. When the fuse holder is inserted in the fuse block in an on position, the free end portions of the contact blade extensions are pinched toward each other by engagement with the legs 38 of the contact jaws, as can be seen in a comparison of FIGURES 8 and 9. The pinching of the contact blade extensions 26 toward each other tends to move the outer jaw of each fuse clip 20 toward the inner jaw thereof and establishes better electrical connections between the fuse clips 20 and the fuses 25 than in former constructions. 7 When a fuse holder 12 with a pair of fuses 25 therein is inserted in the on position in the recess 14 adjacent the load terminals 51 and 52, and a load is connected to'the terminals 51 and 52 and the fuse block 10 is energized, an electrical circuit is completed from the line terminal 31 through the connector 44, a first contact jaw 40, a first contact blade extension 26, a first fuse 25, a second contact blade extension 26, a second contact jaw 40, the load terminal 52, the load connected to the terminals 51 and 52, the load terminal 51, a third contact jaw 40, a'third contact blade extension 26, a second fuse 25, afourth contact blade extension 26, a fourth contact jaw 40, the connector 46, and the connector 47 to the line terminal 32. p 7
When a fuse holder 12 with a pair of fuses 25 therein is inserted in the on position in the recess 14 adjacent the load terminals 53 and 54, and a load is connected to theterminals 53 and 54 and the fuse block 10 is energized, an electrical circuit is completed from the line terminal 31thr0ugh the connector 44, the strap 43, a Y
first contact jaw 40, a first contact blade extension 26, a first fuse 25, a second contact blade extension 26, a second contact jaw 40, the'load terminal 53, the load connected to the terminals 53 and 54, the load terminal 54, a third contact jaw 4d, a third contact blade extension '26, a second fuse 25, a fourth contact blade extension 26, a fourth contact jaw 40, and the connector 47 to the line terminal 32.
When a fuse holder 12 with a pair of fuses 25 thereinis inserted in a recess, 14 in the off position, it does not complete an electrical circuit even though a load is connected to the respective load terminals and the fuse block It) is energized, because the contact blade extensions 26 are then in holes 36 and pocket 36a and not in contact with the contact jaws 40.
Various modifications may be made in the structure diclosed without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
