A frame for an input and output device with four corners, which has a first leg and a second leg, where a strip is arranged on the first leg, open spaces are arranged in the frame profile to form the four corners such that the strip remains standing in the region of the open space, and a groove is arranged on the second leg, and where a respective corner element is arranged in each of the four corners, and each respective corner element has an element body with a first element leg and a second element leg, and where the first and second element legs are arranged substantially at right angles to one another on the element body and the corner elements are arranged in the open spaces such that the first second element legs are each arranged in the groove of the frame profile.

Frame for an input and output device and method for manufacturing the frame

A lock insert for a cylinder lock is disclosed for locking an electric switch, including a main part with an opening for receiving the cylinder lock. In an embodiment, the inner wall of the opening is designed to at least partially contact an outer wall of the cylinder lock, and in the inner wall at least one slot is formed to allow freedom of radial movement of locking elements in the cylinder lock, the positions of which correspond to a locked position of the cylinder lock.

Lock insert for a cylinder lock

A mounting plate is disclosed for supporting a circuit breaker accessory part. In an embodiment, the mounting plate includes a holding device, configured to hold the mounting plate on a wall of a housing of a circuit breaker and a fastening device, configured to fasten the circuit breaker accessory part to the mounting plate.

Mounting plate

Disclosed is a handle locking device including a first frame, a first hook and a second frame, wherein a second hook is provided on the first frame. The first and second hooks are rotatably installed on the first frame, and the second frame capable of fixing the first hook and the first frame. Since the handle locking device is only be installable on a circuit breaker by mating between the first hook and a first installation part of the circuit breaker and mating between the second hook and a second installation part of the circuit breaker, an operator is prevented from unintentionally setting an 'OFF' position of the handle locking device in an 'ON' position of the circuit breaker during installation. The first hook is rotatably installed on the first frame, so that the handle locking device can be conveniently and rapidly installed on or demounted from the circuit breaker.

Circuit breaker and handle locking device thereof

A locking apparatus is disclosed for an electromechanical switching device having a manual actuation option. Furthermore, such a switching device is also disclosed. A robust, mechanically simple locking apparatus is provided which can be operated without a tool, as well as a correspondingly embodied switching device. The locking apparatus of at least one embodiment includes a combination of few interacting construction elements attuned to one another in terms of structure and function. In this apparatus, a locking element assumes a double function, by, on the one hand, securing the connection of the locking apparatus with the switching device and on the other hand preventing a change in position of the actuation element of the switching device.

Locking apparatus for an electromechanical switching device having a manual actuation option

An apparatus is disclosed for mutual interlocking of two switches, in particular circuit breakers. In at least one embodiment, the apparatus includes two plungers which each engage in one of the two switches and can be moved in the plunger longitudinal direction, wherein, when one switch is being switched on, the plunger which engages in this switch is moved by pivoting of a control disk from its nil-point position to its opening position. In at least one embodiment, the apparatus includes a blocking device which blocks pivoting of the other control disk by moving the plunger to its opening position. In order to achieve a maintenance-free apparatus, in at least one embodiment it is proposed that at least one blocking element of the blocking device is moved by the plunger when this plunger is being moved to its opening position, such that pivoting of the other control disk with respect to the other plunger, which is located in the nil-point position, is blocked.

Apparatus for mutual interlocking of two switches, in particular circuit breakers

An apparatus is disclosed for mutually locking two switches, in particular circuit breakers, with two plungers which move in opposition to one another via a forced mechanical coupling. When one switch opens, one plunger is shifted into its opening position and the other plunger is shifted into its locking position. In order to achieve a maintenance-free apparatus, at least one embodiment of the invention proposes that each plunger has a toothed rack, which meshes with a gearwheel, on which in each case one radial lever is arranged. The levers are connected in articulated fashion to one another via a connecting rod and a stop lever is mounted in rotary fashion on each gearwheel and, when the plungers are located in the zero position, bears in each case against a fixing stop. Furthermore, a driver is located on each gearwheel and bears in each case against a stop face formed on the stop lever, wherein, when a plunger is shifted, in particular when a switch opens, one driver pivots the stop lever towards a spring, while the other driver is removed from the stop face of the stop lever.
