Title: Joerg Kusserow: Innovator in Vacuum Interrupter Technology
Introduction
Joerg Kusserow is a notable inventor based in Neuenhagen, Germany. He has made significant contributions to the field of electrical engineering, particularly in the development of vacuum interrupters. With a total of 3 patents to his name, Kusserow's work has had a substantial impact on medium- and high-voltage applications.
Latest Patents
Kusserow's latest patents include a method for opening the contact gap of a vacuum interrupter. The aim of this invention is to improve the breaking ability of vacuum interrupters in the medium- and high-voltage range. This is achieved by moving the contact pieces, which may be displaced relative to each other, with a relatively high speed during the first phase of the separation process. This phase continues until about one-half to two-thirds of the ultimate separation is reached. The contact pieces are then brought to the final separation with a relatively low speed during the second phase. Another significant patent is for a vacuum interrupter chamber with a ring-shaped insulator. This new vacuum switching chamber is designed for power breakers in the low-voltage range and is distinguished by its compact form, small physical height, and high switching capacity. Its enclosure includes a plate-like power current connection, a cylindrical wall part that surrounds flat spiral contacts, an annular insulator, and a membrane disk with a centrally arranged power current supply bolt.
