Christian Bach

Title: Christian Bach and Electrical Switching Innovations.

Introduction

Christian Bach is an inventor based in Seyssins, France, whose patent work focuses on mechanisms for electrical switching devices with separable contacts. His inventions address how a switching device’s control lever is restrained during operation to help prevent unwanted rebound.

Latest Patents

Bach’s listed patent portfolio includes 2 patents, with the following inventions among his latest work.

Anti-rebounding lever within a switching device

This invention describes an electrical switching device with fixed and mobile contacts, a rotatable control lever, and an anti-rebounding lever. When the control lever reaches its second position, the anti-rebounding lever moves into an opened-out position and engages a stop, helping prevent the control lever from leaving that position.

Electrical switching unit with separable contacts

This invention features an anti-bounce lever mounted on the control lever and a fixed bearing around the lever. As the control lever rotates, a contact portion of the anti-bounce lever moves along the bearing’s edge. A cam-shaped guiding portion on that edge pushes the lever into its deployed position, where it cooperates with an abutment to restrain the control lever.

Career Highlights

Bach’s patent work centers on mechanical features that support reliable operation in electrical switching equipment. The described designs use coordinated levers, bearings, cams, and stops to control movement and limit rebound.

Collaborations

Bach is associated with Schneider Electric Industries SAS. His listed coworker is Javier Herreros.

Conclusion

Christian Bach’s inventions address rebound control in electrical switching devices through carefully coordinated mechanical components, contributing to the development of switching technology.
