A pushbutton, momentary ON switch has a body including a barrel with longitudinally extending internal splines and ways between the splines. A plunger has radially extending lugs in the ways and is longitudinally movable in the barrel. A plurality of longitudinally extending camming teeth on the plunger engage a plurality of longitudinally extending camming teeth on a rotatable ratchet coaxial with the plunger. The ratchet is spring loaded against the plunger. The ratchet has radially extending dogs which fit into the ways when the plunger is retracted and come out of the ends of the ways when the plunger is advanced. A rotatable electrical contact cup connected to the ratchet and electrically connected to an external lead makes or breaks contact with a fixed electrical terminal in the body. The plunger teeth include a leading ramp face and a trailing ramp face wherein the leading ramp face extends a greater distance in the circumferential direction than the trailing ramp face. The asymmetrical teeth permit symmetrical rotation of the ratchet and electrical contacts. In this case, the contacts rotate approximately 22½° in each half of the stroke of the plunger, making contact upon depressing the plunger and breaking contact upon its retraction. Since the plunger teeth each having an apex offset from a centerline of the tooth, they advance the ratchet a sufficient distance that electrical contact between the fixed electrical terminal member and the rotatable electrical contact cup is made substantially simultaneously with a tactile and/or auditory signal from the switch as the plunger advances the ratchet.

An electric circuit breaker (10) has a toggle mechanism (18) having two movable over center joints (3, 4) connected between a push-button (16) and a movable contact mechanism (30). When the push-button is depressed a first link rotates bringing the first movable over center joint (3) across a center position represented by a first imaginary straight line (1) to a stop surface (28). A spring member (36) provides a bias which acts on the second movable over center joint (4) normally maintaining the second movable joint against the stop surface so that with the two movable over center joints biased against the stop surface the movable contact mechanism is moved to a closed contact position when the push-button is depressed. An overload responsive member transfers motion to the second movable over center joint (4) upon the occurrence of a selected overload and moves the second over center joint across a center position represented by a second imaginary straight line (2) allowing the contacts opening spring (34) to move the movable contact mechanism to the open contacts position providing a trip free operation. The circuit breaker can be formed for a single phase or it can be formed for multiphase operation in which additional ganged phases have no toggle mechanism but do have separate ambient temperature compensated trip arms and overload responsive members which operate through the single toggle mechanism.

A circuit breaker drive is disclosed. The circuit breaker drive includes an actuator for assuming a plurality of positions and a lever coupled to the actuator and responsive to the action of the actuator. The circuit breaker drive also includes a cam rotatable about an axis, the cam is juxtaposed proximate the lever, and the lever is operative to rotate the cam about the axis. The circuit breaker drive further includes a rack coupled to the cam and to an operating handle of the mol circuit breaker. Rotation of the cam about the axis drives the rack to move the operating handle.

A rotary push switch has upper and lower housings locked together by protuberances along one housing in locking grooves along the other. A return spring and an actuator are in a carrier within the upper housing together with a push button and a movable terminal. A plurality of fixed terminals are integrally formed with the lower housing and soldering holes are formed through a bottom of the lower housing at positions corresponding to the fixed terminals so that a power line can be connected to the fixed terminals.
摘要:
An actuation and control device for opening and/or closing high- and medium-voltage circuit breakers having at least one fixed contact and at least one moving contact, comprising actuation means which are operatively connected to the moving contact and supply the energy for performing the opening/closure movement, the particularity of which consists of the fact that the actuation means comprise a servomotor, an electronic control and power supply unit, and elements for transmitting motion, and that the actuation means and/or the coupling between the fixed contact and the moving contact are such as to achieve a desired speed of the moving contact at the instant in which it separates from the fixed contact.

A switching device includes two or more switching modules (7, 8, 15) with at least one switch and connection clamps (24), an actuator (16), and a transfer device (39). The transfer device (39) propagates the drive motion initiated by the actuator (16) in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the actuator (16) and transfers the drive motion to at least one switching pin (18, 19) of the switching modules (7, 8, 15). The switching pin (18, 19) is positionable axially at a distance parallel to the axis of the actuator (16).
摘要:
A device for a switching device, in particular for grounding switches for medium-voltage voltage switchgear assemblies, has a grounding device shaft in a stationary switch panel, which grounding device shaft can be operated manually, is connected by means of a drive mechanism, which transmits radial movement, to a drive coupling, which accommodates the radial movements, of the switch panel, and can be moved to the coupled state only in a permissible manner by means of a module shaft which is mounted in a movable switching module such that it can rotate. The locked state is indicated by the axial movement of the module shaft beyond the contour of the switching module. In order to operate the disconnector contact when it is coupled, the switching module is locked to the switch panel by the disconnector shaft.
