A transfer assembly is for a switching assembly of an electrical enclosure. The switching assembly includes an electrical switching apparatus having an operating handle structured to move from an OFF position to an ON position. The transfer assembly includes a driving handle; a first shaft member coupled to the driving handle; a second shaft member structured to be coupled to the operating handle; and a transmission assembly having a first component and a second component, the first component being coupled to the first shaft member, the second component being coupled to the second shaft member. The transfer assembly is structured to move from a FIRST position to a SECOND position. When the transfer assembly moves from the FIRST position to the SECOND position, the first component drives the second component, thereby causing the second shaft member to move the operating handle from the OFF position to the ON position.

DIN RAIL DEVICE MOUNT ASSEMBLIES, SYSTEMS AND METHODS INCLUDING LOCKING MECHANISMS

A DIN rail device mount system includes a base, a module and a locking mechanism. The base is configured to be mounted on a DIN rail. The base defines a receiver slot. The module is configured to be removably mounted in the receiver slot to form a DIN rail mount assembly. The locking mechanism includes: a lock member having opposed proximal and distal ends and including an integral lock member latch feature on its distal end, wherein the lock member is pivotally connected to the base at its proximal end to pivot between a closed position and an open position; and an integral module latch feature on the module. The DIN rail mount system is selectively positionable in each of: a locked configuration wherein the module is seated in the receiver slot, the lock member is in the closed position, and the lock member latch feature is interlocked with the module latch feature, whereby the lock member secures the module in the receiver slot; and an unlocked configuration wherein the lock member is in the open position, the lock member latch feature is not interlocked with the module latch feature, and the module can be withdrawn from the receiver slot.

REMOTE CONTROL DEVICE FOR AN ELECTRICAL DEVICE IN AN ELECTRICAL ENCLOSURE

A remote control device includes a rotary control member that can be selectively moved between first and second configurations, a transmission system suitable for mechanically linking the rotary member to a control lever of an electrical device. The movement of the rotary control member drives the control lever to move respectively between first and second positions. The rotary control member is to be mounted on a side walls of a housing, the transmission system includes a first pinion, secured in rotation with the rotary control member about a first axis, a second pinion, meshed with the first pinion and rotationally mobile about a second fixed axis at right angles to the first fixed axis and intended to be coupled mechanically with the control lever to move this lever when the second pinion is moved in rotation.

LIGHT SWITCH COVER
20170221650 · 2017-08-03 ·

A light switch cover includes a base portion defining a central opening and including a first base engagement member and a second base engagement member, a cover pivotally coupled to the base portion, a first cover engagement member positioned on the cover, where the first cover engagement member has a complementary shape to the first base engagement member, and where the first cover engagement member is selectively engaged with the first base engagement member when the cover is in the closed position, and a second cover engagement member positioned on the cover, where the second cover engagement member has a complementary shape to the second base engagement member, and where the second cover engagement member is selectively engaged with the second base engagement member when the cover is in the closed position.

INDUSTRIAL CUT-OFF SWITCH FOR VISUAL IDENTIFICATION OF POWER SYSTEM CUT-OFF STATUS
20220238291 · 2022-07-28 ·

Disclosed herein is an industrial cut-off switch for visual identification of power system cut-off status. The industrial cut-off switch includes an enclosure having an accommodation space therein, a handle disposed on an outer surface of the enclosure and having a gripping part extending in one direction, and a switch unit disposed inside the enclosure, and connected to the handle operated to adjust an on/off state of the switch unit.

ROTARY LOCKOUT TAGOUT LATCH SYSTEM

A latch system for an electrical equipment enclosure includes a latch arm receiver adapted to be connected to an associated enclosure door. A latch arm assembly is adapted to be connected in operative engagement with an associated circuit breaker. The latch arm assembly includes a chassis and a latch arm that moves relative to the chassis between: (i) a first arm position; (ii) a second arm position; and (iii) an intermediate arm position between the first arm position and the second arm position. A latch arm spring biases the latch arm toward its first arm position. A handle is rotatably connected to the chassis and operatively connected to the toggle of the circuit breaker. The handle is movable to and between an ON handle position, a TRIP handle position, an OFF handle position, and a RESET handle position. The handle is operatively connected to the latch arm such that the latch arm is positioned in the second arm position when the handle is located in said RESET handle position. The latch arm spring biases the latch arm into one of the first position and the intermediate position when the handle is in any one of said ON handle position, said TRIP handle position, and said OFF handle position. A lockout plunger is connected to the handle to rotate with the handle and is movable between a disengaged position and an engaged position, wherein the lockout plunger prevents movement of the handle from the OFF handle position to the ON handle position when the lockout plunger is in its engaged position

INTERLOCKING MECHANISM FOR A SWITCHING DEVICE
20230133635 · 2023-05-04 ·

An interlocking mechanism for a switching device is provided. The interlocking mechanism includes an interlocking arm having a first end and a second end. The interlocking arm is movable between a first position and a second position. When positioned in the first position, the second end of the interlocking arm forms a releasable contact with switching device blocking operation of the switching device. When positioned in the second position, the second end of the interlocking arm withdraws from the releasable contact with the switching device allowing operation of the switching device. The interlocking mechanism further includes an actuator connected to the interlocking arm. The actuator, in response to receiving actuator signal, moves the interlocking arm between the first position and the second position.

REMOVABLE LAWN MOWER PTO SWITCH COVER
20210262256 · 2021-08-26 ·

Disclosed are apparatus and corresponding and/or associated methodology generally relating to lawn mower security systems and more particularly to providing the ability to safeguard ride-on style lawn mowers against unauthorized cranking of its engine if the mowers have push/pull mower deck or power-takeoff (PTO) switch technology. Per some embodiments, presently disclosed security components may be secured to a PTO or mower deck switch to prevent the ability to position such switch in a disengaged position. Therefore, existing safety and interlock features of the existing ride-on mower otherwise prevent someone from being able to crank the mower, which helps to guard against unauthorized use and/or theft of the equipment.
