Circuit breakers incorporating reset lockout mechanisms

A reset lockout mechanism for a circuit breaker includes a linkage, a rocker, an armature, a solenoid, and a plunger. The linkage is positioned to move between an open position and a closed position. The rocker is selectively engageable with the linkage. The armature is selectively engageable with the rocker. The plunger is supported by the solenoid and operatively coupled to the armature. The plunger is movable between a first position and a second position.

Solenoid valve

A solenoid valve includes: a movable iron core; a molded solenoid body disposed outside the movable iron core in a radial direction; a solenoid case that accommodates the movable iron core and the molded solenoid body; and a stationary iron core disposed radially inside the molded solenoid body, and generates a magnetic force between the movable iron core and the stationary iron core when a coil is energized, the stationary iron core including a thin portion circumferentially formed and thinned in a circumferential direction, and a flange portion formed at a first axial end of the stationary iron core to extend outward in the radial direction.

Current dependent bi-directional force solenoid

A solenoid valve having current dependent bi-directional force includes a stator with a channel. An armature is in the stator channel. The armature is movable in a first and second direction. A projection extends from the stator into the channel. When a low current is applied, a flux is generated such that it jumps from the projection to the armature and back to the stator. Thus, the armature is pulled in the first direction. As the current is increased, the projection becomes magnetically saturated and the additional flux as a result of increased current jumps from the stator, at a thinned portion, to the armature then back to the stator. This moves the armature in the second direction, opposite to the first direction.

ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY FOR AN ELECTROMAGNETICALLY ACTUATABLE VALVE

An actuator arrangement for an electromagnetically actuatable valve comprises a housing having a first wall, and a second wall situated opposite the first wall, a solenoid armature, with first and second axial armature end surfaces facing toward the first and second housing walls respectively, movable along an axis between a first position, where the first end surface makes contact with the first wall, and a second position, where the first end surface is away from the first wall. A damping element of an elastomer material extends from the second end surface toward the second wall and contacts the second wall in the first and second positions of the solenoid armature, A stop element of an elastomer material extends from the second end surface toward the second wall and, in the first position, is away from the second wall and, in the second position, contacts the second wall.

Solenoid supervisory system
