20140360984 | GAS INSULATED SWITCHGEAR - Compact lightweight gas insulated switchgear which assures sufficient electrode fixing strength equivalent to the fixing strength given by brazing and is structurally simple and enables efficient arc rotation with low operating energy. In the switchgear, a movable arcing contact is located on a movable element, opposite to a fixed arcing contact and electrically connected to, or disconnected from, the fixed arcing contact as the movable element moves. The movable arcing contact includes, in order from its tip opposite to the fixed arcing contact, a first electrode as a convex hollow coaxial cylindrical electrode, hollow coaxial cylindrical first spacer, and second electrode as a hollow coaxial cylindrical electrode and has electric conduction means to connect the first and second electrodes electrically through the first spacer. The first and second electrodes are fixed through the first spacer by a fixing member having higher resistivity than the first and second electrodes. | 12-11-2014 |
20150043121 | Circuit Breaker and Circuit Breaker Operating Method - The invention is intended to provide a circuit breaker or a circuit breaker operating method enabling a current interruption action to be performed efficiently. A circuit breaker is characterized in that includes a fixed contact and a movable contact that comes in and goes out of contact with the fixed contact; a main circuit conductor that is electrically connected to the fixed contact and the movable contact; an operating mechanism including a mover configured by concatenating permanent magnets or magnetic materials alternately having opposite N and S magnetic polarities along the direction of motion axis of the movable contact and magnetic poles disposed to face the N and S magnetic polarities of the mover and wound with windings; a current detector that detects a current flowing through the main circuit conductor; and a control device that varies the amount of a current to be supplied to the windings of the magnetic poles, depending on a current value detected by the current detector. | 02-12-2015 |
20150054524 | Partial Discharge Measurement Device and Method - A partial discharge measurement device according to the present invention includes a frequency separation unit for separating a partial discharge signal which occurs in an apparatus under diagnosis and is detected by a sensor into the partial discharge signal and a main circuit voltage phase signal, an arithmetic device which receives the partial discharge signal and the main circuit voltage phase signal separated by the frequency separation unit and calculates a partial discharge signal synchronized with a main circuit voltage based on the partial discharge signal and the main circuit voltage phase signal, a power supply device for extracting a voltage obtained by dividing the main circuit voltage and supplying a power supply voltage to the arithmetic device, and a control unit for issuing an instruction for powering on or off at least the arithmetic device to the power supply device. | 02-26-2015 |
