PLUG-IN CIRCUIT BREAKER
20230012081 · 2023-01-12 ·

A plug-in circuit breaker that includes a housing, an operating mechanism and a button mechanism which has a closing position and an opening position. The circuit breaker further includes a locking member and a linkage member arranged inside the housing. The linkage member is provided with an abutting protruding stand. The locking member is provided with a locking protruding stand. When the button mechanism is in the closing position, the abutting protruding stand of the linkage member extends out of the housing and is limited by the button mechanism at an extension position, so that it cannot retract into the housing. When the button mechanism is in the opening position, the linkage member retracts into the housing, the locking protruding stand of the locking member extends out of the housing, and the locking protruding stand of the locking member can be pushed back into the housing.

Pole actuation booster mechanism

A pole actuation booster mechanism for a four-poles low voltage circuit breaker, which includes: a first operating member adapted to be operatively connected to the operating shaft of the circuit breaker and moving together with said shaft during its rotation from an open position to a closed position, and vice-versa, of said circuit breaker over a range of movement having a first, a second and a third portion of movement, the first operating member having a first operating end; an operating assembly including at least an elastic element operatively connected to a lever, the first operating member being disengaged from said operating assembly during the first portion of its movement and engaged with the lever during the second and third portions of its movement. During a closing operation of the circuit breaker the first operating member moves first along the first portion of movement driven by the operating shaft and disengaged from the operating assembly, then moves along the second portion of movement driven by the operating shaft and engaged with the lever and transmitting energy to the operating assembly; and finally moves along the third portion of movement driven by the lever and transmitting energy to the operating shaft.

DAMPER AND LATCHING ASSEMBLIES FOR ELECTRICAL SWITCHING DEVICES

An electrical switching device, such as a high-speed switching device, has a damper and latching assembly. The assembly is configured to dampen the movement of a moving contact of the switching device as the moving contact translates from its closed position to its open position. The assembly also is configured to restrain the moving contact in its open position. The assembly stores at least some of the energy associated with the damping process, and uses the stored energy to assist in the release of the moving contact during the subsequent re-closing of the switching device.
