20110073448 | ARRANGEMENT COMPRISING AT LEAST TWO SEPARATE SWITCH POLE HOUSINGS AND HAVING A JOINING FACILITY FOR JOINING THE SWITCH POLE HOUSINGS AND A MULTI-POLE ELECTRIC SWITCHING DEVICE COMPRISING SUCH AN ARRANGEMENT - An arrangement includes at least two separate switch pole housings and a joining facility for joining the switch pole housings. In at least one embodiment, each of the switch pole housings forms an insulating enclosure of a switching space for receiving a single switch pole of an electric switching device which has a lower wall, an upper wall, two side walls, a rear wall and a front wall and in which at least a first one of the two switch pole housings has on a first one of the side walls, facing the second one of the switch pole housings, at least one recess for receiving at least one joining device of the joining facility. In order to reliably join the switch pole housings to one another whilst maintaining a preferred installation direction extending transversely to the front walls of the switch pole housings, in at least one embodiment the at least one recess forms a first undercut with respect to the first one of the side walls and a first locating surface in parallel with the front wall, the at least one joining device being constructed as contour element in such a manner that it engages behind the first undercut and is braced against the first locating surface, and the contour element having a receiving opening, extending in parallel with the first one of the side walls, for receiving at least one fastening device of the joining facility. | 03-31-2011 |
20120026638 | RELEASE FOR AN ELECTRIC SWITCHING ARRANGEMENT - A release for an electrical switching arrangement is disclosed, which is arranged over the course of a first current path. In at least one embodiment, it includes at least two switching contacts, which are arranged in a housing and are isolated if the current flowing via the switching contacts has exceeded a predetermined threshold value, with an actuating element, which responds, counter to the force of a restraining apparatus, to a pressure which is generated by an arc drawn in the event of electrodynamic recoil of the switching contacts in an isolating zone of the switching contacts, which isolating zone is surrounded by the housing, and which actuates a shutdown mechanism which brings about automatic interruption of the current path, wherein the actuating element has a movable element, which forms a blocking element in a flow channel, which is connected to the isolating zone, which blocking element performs a predetermined control movement at the pressure which is intended to result in shutdown. | 02-02-2012 |
20120073945 | Multipole Electrical Switching Device - A multipole electrical switching device is disclosed with an outer housing in which at least two separate switching pole housings are accommodated. In at least one embodiment, the at least two separate switching pole housings on walls facing towards one another, each have a least one mounting which form a mounting pair assigned to one another. In at least one embodiment, for mechanical connection of the at least two separate switching pole housings, the mounting pair is assigned at least one connection device which engages into the two mountings forming the mounting pair. The two mountings forming the mounting pair, in relation to a dividing joint formed between the two facing walls, each form an undercut, whereby the at least one connecting device engages behind the undercuts and the at least one connecting device is formed in a primary process in one piece on the outer housing. | 03-29-2012 |
20120152704 | Casing Of A Circuit Breaker, In Particular Of A Circuit Breaker For Nominal Currents Above 250A - A casing of a circuit breaker for nominal currents above 250A that enables at least one rigid busbar to be swung in to make contact with at least one switching pole attached in the casing. The casing may include a bottom section that cuboidally includes a rectangular base area and two rectangular side faces connected to the base area and running parallel to one another. Adjacent side faces are connected to one another via at least two stays which are arranged away from the opposing openings, delimited by the side faces, of the cuboidal bottom section, so that a switching pole can be inserted between the stays into the bottom section and so that a rigid busbar can be swung in at one of the two openings in order to make contact with the switching pole, when busbar and bottom section are each premounted, for example in a switching cabinet. | 06-21-2012 |
20120186957 | Electric Switch - An electric switch is disclosed including an at least two-part housing including a first housing part, a second housing part connected to the first housing part and including at least one pole cartridge which is enclosed by the two-part housing and is preassembled in the second housing part. In at least one embodiment, the first housing part is connected to the pole cartridge with the aid of at least one fastening device. | 07-26-2012 |
20120285805 | APPARATUS FOR TRIPPING AN ELECTRICAL SWITCH - An apparatus for tripping an electrical switch is disclosed, which includes a selective tripping device and a power-saving mechanism. The electrical switch can be tripped by the selective tripping device by way of the power-saving mechanism. | 11-15-2012 |
20120314331 | RELEASE FOR AN ELECTRICAL SWITCHING ARRANGEMENT - A selective release with a moving element is disclosed. The moving element is here mounted such that the moving element, in addition to the motion about its swivel axis, is guided in its motion by way of a brace. As a result of this, the moving element is mounted such that the trajectory of the blocking element essentially runs in a plane which extends transversely to the direction of flow of the flow channel. | 12-13-2012 |
20130180838 | SWITCHING APPARATUS FOR AN ELECTRICAL SWITCHING DEVICE - A switching apparatus for an electrical switching device is disclosed, in particular an electrical circuit breaker, for safeguarding at least two poles. A tripping element is included for each pole, supported moveably between a rest position and a tripping position. A common switching frame, movable between a pre-tension position and a switching position, is actively connected for force transmission to frame sections of the at least two tripping elements for the movement of the switching frame into the switching position upon movement of the tripping element into the tripping position. At least one spring element is embodied to apply force to the frame sections of the at least two tripping elements in the direction of the rest position of the at least two tripping elements. | 07-18-2013 |
