Mechanical interlock for switch

A mechanical interlock for a switch gear switch. The mechanical interlock includes a base and a slider. The slider is moveable relative to the base between a first position and a second position. The mechanical interlock is configured to lock the position of the switch when the slider is in the second position.

SWITCH ASSEMBLY AND ELECTRIC DRILL
20220199335 · 2022-06-23 · ·

The disclosure provides a switch assembly and an electric drill. The switch assembly includes a first switch, a button, and a locking mechanism. The button is provided with a pressing part that cooperates with the first switch, so as to trigger the first switch when the button is pressed. The locking mechanism includes a locking member for locking the button and a trigger pivotally mounted and matched with the locking member. When the locking mechanism is locked, the locking member resists the button, so that the button cannot be pressed. When the trigger is rotated, the trigger drives the locking member to move, so that the locking member is misaligned with the button, and the button can be pressed at this time.

Locking system for use with a trigger assembly of an electrical device

A trigger assembly having: a housing with a switch; a trigger; an actuator movable from OFF wherein the switch is operably-opened, towards ON wherein the switch is operably-closed; a lock-on mechanism including a first locking member mounted proximate the trigger and a second locking member mounted proximate the housing; when the actuator is ON, said locking members are movable relative to each other into a locked configuration; a lock-off mechanism including a lock-off member that is movable about a rotation axis between locked-off-position, which restricts movement of the trigger and the actuator is restricted from movement, and non-locked-off-position, which does not restrict movement of the trigger and the actuator member is not restricted from movement; and a shaped-portion disposed proximate the housing that abuts the lock-off member when the trigger is moved towards the housing with the lock-off member in the locked-off-position, whereby the actuator is restricted from movement.

Circuit interrupters with electronically controlled lock out tag out systems and related electrical distribution systems and methods

Circuit breakers with a housing with a line side and a load side and an electronically controlled lock-out lock member coupled to the housing configured to electronically controllably travel between a first position and a second position. In the second position, the lock member is in a lock-out position and prevents the handle from moving to an ON position associated with electrical current conduction and in the first position the lock member is translated to a position that allows the handle to move to the ON position.
