A diverter switch is for an on-load tap-changer. The diverter switch includes: at least one vacuum interrupter; an actuating element, which is mechanically connected at a first end of the vacuum interrupter and has a roller at a second end; and an actuating body having a base body and having at least one cam. The vacuum interrupter is configured to be actuated via the actuating element as a result of the roller moving over the actuating body. At least one part of the cam has a higher strength than the base body.

Load transfer switch for on-load tap changer, and on-load tap changer

A switch includes a diverter contact; a primary fixed contact; and a secondary fixed contact. The switch additionally includes a primary movable contact configured to be pivoted, relative to the diverter contact and the primary fixed contact, about a pivot axis between a first end position and a second end position. In the first end position, the primary movable contact bears by a first contact point against the diverter contact and by a second contact point against the primary fixed contact. The switch further includes a secondary movable contact configured to be pivoted, relative to the diverter contact and the secondary fixed contact, about the pivot axis between a first end position and a second end position. In the first end position the secondary movable contact bears by a third contact point against the diverter contact and by a fourth contact point against the secondary fixed contact.

Load transfer switch for an on-load tap changer and continuous main switch and disconnecting switch for same

An energy accumulator () for or in an on-load tap changer () comprises a motor () with an output shaft () and a load diverter switch () with an input shaft (), comprising

Tap changer, force-storage unit, and controlled-backlash coupling therebetween

An indexing transmission for an on-load tap changer or a tap selector of a tapped transformer has a rotatable cam disk having an outer edge formed with a succession of convex and concave cam formations in regular succession and merging with one another, a crank transmission driving the cam disk, and a drive output disk acted on by the cam disk and having an outer edge. Engagement rollers rotatable on an end face of the drive output disk near the outer edge of the drive output disk roll on the outer edge of the cam disk. A switch shaft is rotationally fixed to the drive output disk such that the cam disk in cooperation with the engagement rollers of the drive output disk triggers a stepped rotation of the switch shaft through a defined step angle.

Indexing gear train for on-load tap changers of step transformers

The invention relates to an on-load tap changer having an energy storage device, by means of which an output shaft is rotatable in spurts. According to the invention, in addition to the actual energy storage spring or the actual energy storage springs, at least one further spring is provided, which absorbs/releases energy after the activation of the energy storage mechanism whereby the torque curve can be optimised.

On-load tap changer with energy storage mechanism

The invention relates to an energy store for a load tap changer with a longitudinally movable lifting carriage and an also longitudinally movable snap-action carriage which follows the movement of the lifting carriage after being triggered and whose longitudinal movement is converted into a rotary movement of an output shaft that actuates the load tap changer. In order to do so, two rolls which are guided in an especially geometrically designed guide rail are disposed on the snap-action carriage. Only one of the two rolls is positively guided in the guide rail during the first part of each movement of the snap-action carriage while the other roll can be moved freely. The second roll that could previously be moved freely is then positively guided during the second part of the movement while the roll which was previously guided can be moved freely. The roll which was initially guided is positively guided once again during the third part of the movement.
