20110147183 | TRIPPING ASSEMBLY FOR SWITCHING DEVICE - A tripping assembly is provided for a switching device. The tripping assembly includes: a body part, a tripping axle configured to turn between a trip position and a tensioned position in relation to the body part; a tripping frame configured to turn between a trip position and a tensioned position in relation to the body part and whose turning axis is substantially parallel with the turning axis of the tripping axle; at least one tripping spring which has an non-tensioned state and a tensioned state and which is functionally connected to the tripping axle and to the tripping frame; a frame spring which has a non-tensioned state and a tensioned state and which is functionally connected between the body part and the tripping frame; and a connecting member which is arranged to functionally connect the tripping axle and the tripping frame both in the final stage of a tensioning event and in the initial stage of a tripping event. In the tripping event: (i) both the frame spring and the at least one tripping spring are configured to transfer from the tensioned state to the non-tensioned state, thus releasing energy needed for the tripping event to the tripping assembly; and (ii) the tripping frame and the tripping axle are configured to turn from their tensioned positions to their trip positions, and while doing so, to turn to opposite directions with respect to one another. | 06-23-2011 |
20110147184 | CONTROLLER UNIT FOR SWITCHING DEVICE - Exemplary embodiments are directed to a controller unit for a switching device. The controller unit includes a body part and an operating axle, which is turnable between a closed position and an open position in relation to the body part and is functionally connectable to contacts of the switching device to change respective states of the contacts between the closed position and the open position. The controller also includes a control axle that is turned by a user between an off-position and an on-position in relation to the body part and is functionally connected to turn the operating axle. A tripping assembly is functionally connected to the operating axle such that the tripping event of the tripping assembly turns the operating axle from the closed position to the open position. Connecting means selectably connect the control axle to the tripping assembly. | 06-23-2011 |
20110147185 | CONTROLLER UNIT FOR SWITCHING DEVICE - Exemplary embodiments are directed to a controller unit for a switching device. The controller unit includes a body part and an operating axle. The operating axle is connected to contacts of the switching device to adjust a respective state of the contacts between a closed position and an open position. A control axle includes a first axle part and a second axle part, the first axle part is arranged to be turned by a user, and the second axle part is functionally connected to the operating axle to turn it between the open position and the closed position. A tripping assembly is functionally connected to the operating axle to turn the operating axle from the closed position to the open position. The controller unit also includes connecting means for functionally connecting a first axle part to one of a tripping assembly and a second axle part. | 06-23-2011 |
