| 20090267714 | SWITCH-STATE MONITORING DEVICE - Provision is made for a switch-state monitoring device that not only monitors the state of a switch but also prevents a motor burnout. A switch-state monitoring device for a switch that opens and closes a main circuit by use of a motor is provided with an operating time measuring unit for detecting an operating time for the motor when the switch is opened or closed; a first determination unit for comparing an operating time for the motor detected by the operating time measuring unit with an continuous-operating-capable setting time for the motor and determining whether or not the operating time for the motor has exceeded the continuous-operating-capable setting time; a protection device for halting energization of the motor in the case where, based on an output of the first determination unit, it is determined that the operating time for the motor has exceeded the continuous-operating-capable setting time. | 10-29-2009 |

| 20120146749 | DRIVE SYSTEM FOR OPERATING AN ELECTRIC DEVICE - A drive system is disclosed for operating an electric device. The drive system includes an electric motor having a permanent magnet rotor connectable to the electric device for controlling the operation of it by a limited-angle rotation, the electric motor further including a stator winding. The drive system includes a drive circuit connected to the stator winding. The permanent magnet rotor can be arranged to be aligned to a magnetic field created by the stator winding when supplied with current from the drive circuit, so that a maximum torque can be applied to the rotor and thereby to the movable part within an interval of ±25 degrees around a middle position between two end positions of the limited-angle rotation of the rotor. | 06-14-2012 |

| 20110285483 | REMOTE OPERATION OF A MOTOR CONTROL CENTER SUBUNIT DISCONNECT - A system and method are provided for remotely actuating a subunit disconnect in a motor control center subunit. A motor control center subunit includes a subunit housing configured to fit within a motor control center and a subunit disconnect configured to selectively control a supply power to motor control components of the subunit housing. A control mechanism is attached to the subunit housing to activate and deactivate the subunit disconnect and a remote control device communicates with the control mechanism and is configured to operate the control mechanism to activate and deactivate the subunit disconnect. | 11-24-2011 |
| 20090015358 | Electrical Switching Device Comprising Magnetic Displacement Elements for a Switching Element - Electrical switching device, especially a high-frequency switching device, with at least one oblong electrical switching element, which is arranged with one contact end between two fixed-contact elements spaced a transverse distance from one another and can be moved by two adjustment elements forming a transverse movement drive transversely to a longitudinal direction optionally towards the one or the other fixed-contact element. The adjustment elements are disposed laterally alongside the switching element and can be moved transversely to and from the switching element. In order to improve the transverse movement drive for the switching element, the switching element-comprises magnetic material, wherein the adjustment elements are formed by magnets. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20100026427 | SWITCHING DEVICE - The invention is directed to a switch assembly which can be used in situation in which the switch accommodates the flow of high voltage current. An actuator assembly with moveable contacts is moved by a motor driven armature. The moveable contacts are in electrical engagement with the stationary contacts when the armature is in the first position, and the moveable contacts are spaced from the stationary contacts when the armature is in the second position. By angling the stationary contacts and moveable contacts, the linear motion of the armature causes the moveable contacts to move across the surface of the stationary contacts as the armature approaches the first position. As all of the movements of the assembly are in a direction parallel to the axis of the armature, the assembly can be manufactured and operated reliably in a relatively small space. In addition, the linear movement on the angled contact provides for a positive electrical connection even in adverse environments. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20120206220 | ELECTROMAGNETIC SWITCH DEVICE - In an electromagnetic switch, a magnetic plate, which forms a part of a magnetic circuit, and a bobbin of a second coil are assembled as one body by insert molding. An outer circumferential surface of the magnetic plate is adhered to an inner circumferential surface of a cylindrical frame made of metal. Because a large amount of heat energy generated in the second coil is transmitted to the magnetic plate, this can discharge the heat energy through the magnetic plate to the cylindrical flame. Because a mounting surface of the cylindrical frame is fixed to an end part of a starter housing case, it is possible to easily discharge the heat energy generated in the second coil through the cylindrical frame to the starter housing case. This structure prevents a temperature rise of the second coil and contributes entire-size reduction of the electromagnetic switch. | 08-16-2012 |
| 20120182097 | ELECTRICAL SWITCHING DEVICE - An electrical switching device includes a switch housing and first and second circuit assemblies received in the switch housing. Each of the first and second circuit assemblies include a base terminal and a moveable terminal moveable between an open state and a closed state. The moveable terminal is electrically connected to the base terminal in the closed state. An actuator assembly is received in the switch housing. The actuator assembly includes a motor that has a drive coil generating a magnetic field. First and second pivots are arranged within the magnetic field of the drive coil. The first and second pivots are rotated when the drive coil is operated. First and second actuators are coupled to the first and second pivots and are slidable within the switch housing. The first and second actuators are operatively coupled to the moveable terminals of the first and second circuit assemblies, respectively. The first and second actuators move the moveable terminals between the open and closed states. | 07-19-2012 |

| 20120182098 | ELECTRICAL SWITCHING DEVICE - An electrical switching device includes first and second circuit assemblies. Each of the first and second circuit assemblies includes a base terminal and a moveable terminal movable between an open state and a closed state. The movable terminal is electrically connected to the base terminal in the closed state. An actuator assembly is electromechanically controlled by a motor. The actuator assembly includes a pivot member rotated by the motor that has a post extending outward from a pivot body. An actuator is moved by the pivot member and is movable between a first position and a second position. The actuator is operatively coupled to the moveable terminals of the first and second circuit assemblies. The actuator moves the movable terminals to the closed state as the actuator is moved from the first position to the second position. The actuator has a pocket with a compression spring received in the pocket. The compression spring extends between a first end and a second end. The first end engages the actuator. The second end engages the post. The compression spring provides a force on the actuator to push the movable terminals toward the base terminals. | 07-19-2012 |
