138 ELECTROMECHANICAL SWITCHING DEVICE AND ARRANGEMENT WITH SEVERAL SUCH DEVICES PCT/DE9501089 1995-08-17 WO9607192A3 1996-05-30 POHL FRITZ; JAEHNER WILFRIED
Switching devices may have means for contactlessly detecting their position. According to the invention, to recognise the switching position there are magnetic field sensors arranged at a suitable point inside and/or outside the device housing. Position-dependent magnetic fields are measured in particular to detect the on-off switched position, overcurrent triggering and contact welding. The magnetic field of the flowing current is detected, however, to detect short-circuit triggering. Differential Hall effect sensors (10, 30, 40) and Reed contacts (20) are used for these purposes. In an advantageous development of the main patent, there is a sound sensor (130) to detect switching noise, the signal of which is evaluated together with the overcurrent triggering signal to detect short-circuit triggering.
