A spindle drive for generating a rotational motion, in particular a drive for a high-voltage disconnecting switch, includes a drive shaft, at least one sliding block disk being mounted on the drive shaft and having recesses formed therein, two retaining bolts, a carriage in which the retaining bolts are fastened, a single slide nut for moving the carriage, and a drive spindle for moving the retaining bolts into engagement with the recesses. The drive spindle moves the retaining bolts through the slide nut and the carriage.

Spindle drive

A high-voltage switchgear having a fixed and a moving contact member includes a hydraulic drive for operation of the moving contact member having a piston and cylinder configuration with a piston coupled to the moving contact member. A fluid reservoir configuration supplies fluid under pressure to the piston for driving the piston. A compressor unit at ground potential charges the fluid reservoir configuration. Electrically-insulating, pressure-resistant lines respectively connect the compressor unit with the piston and cylinder configuration and with the fluid reservoir configuration. The piston and cylinder configuration and the fluid reservoir configuration are disposed spatially close to and at the same electrical potential as the moving contact member.

Hydraulic drive for a high-voltage switchgear

A hydraulic or pneumatic drive for actuation of a movable switch contact of a medium and/or high-voltage power switch, especially an SF6-gas-insulated high-voltage power switch, includes a drive piston coupled to the movable switch contact. Fluid is delivered under pressure to the drive piston from a fluid reservoir configuration in order to perform one switching cycle having a given number of required switching operations. The fluid reservoir configuration has the given number of mutually separate independently acting storage chambers each having an energy content sufficient for a required switching operation.
