    Abstract: A door for an arc-resistant compartment includes an opening there-through. Flap structure includes a flap member coupled to the door and movable between an opened position permitting air to pass through the opening, and a closed position covering the opening. Spring structure is engaged with the flap member to bias the flap member to the closed position. Handle structure is coupled to the flap member and extends through the door for moving the flap member to the opened position against the bias of the spring structure. Retaining structure provides a retaining force on the flap member to retain the flap member in the open position, against the bias of the spring structure. During an arcing event in the compartment, pressure within the compartment together with the bias of the spring structure overcomes the retaining force to automatically move the flap member to the closed position.

    Abstract translation: 防弧隔间的门包括一个开口。 翼片结构包括联接到门并可在允许空气通过开口的打开位置和覆盖开口的关闭位置之间移动的翼片构件。 弹簧结构与翼片构件接合以将翼片构件偏压到关闭位置。 手柄结构联接到挡板构件并延伸穿过门,以抵抗弹簧结构的偏压将挡板构件移动到打开位置。 保持结构在挡板构件上提供保持力,以抵抗弹簧结构的偏压将挡板构件保持在打开位置。 在室内的电弧事件期间,隔室内的压力以及弹簧结构的偏压克服了保持力,以将挡板元件自动移动到关闭位置。

    Abstract: A switchgear enclosure includes a first circuit breaker compartment having an opening therein defining a first air outlet. A second circuit breaker compartment is adjacent to and vertically below the first circuit breaker compartment. A first door is associated with the first circuit breaker compartment and a second door is associated with the second circuit breaker compartment, with each door having an opening therein defining a door air inlet. A main bus compartment is adjacent to at least the second circuit breaker compartment and has an opening therein defining a second air outlet. An air passage fluidly connects the second circuit breaker compartment with the main bus compartment so that air entering through the door air inlet of the second door can flow into the main bus compartment via the air passage and flow out of the second air outlet.
