A gas-insulated switchgear device comprising a first casing housing: at least a first terminal for input/output connection; a disconnector unit comprising at least a first fixed contact operatively coupled to said first terminal and a corresponding first movable contact which can be electrically connected/disconnected with said first fixed contact, during operation of the disconnector unit; a circuit breaker unit electrically connected to said disconnector unit and comprising at least a couple of interruption contacts which can be actuated, during operation of said circuit breaker unit, between a circuit breaker closed position where they are electrically coupled and a circuit breaker open position where they are electrically separated; actuating means for operating said disconnector unit and said circuit breaker unit; a second casing operatively coupled with said actuating means, which houses said interruption contacts and on the outer surface of which at least said first movable contact is mounted; characterized in that said second casing is pivotally mounted inside said first casing so as to rotate said first movable contact during operation of said disconnector unit, said couple of interruption contacts being operatively coupled to said actuating means so as to be kept electrically coupled in said circuit breaker closed position and substantially still relative to each other during rotation of said second casing.

Gas-insulated switchgear device

A gas-insulated switchgear device which has a first bushing which accommodates a first terminal, a second bushing which accommodates a second terminal, a first enclosure which contains an interruption unit, and at least one first disconnection unit which has a first fixed contact electrically connected to the interruption unit and a second fixed contact at ground voltage, a first moving contact which is electrically connected to the first terminal and can be coupled to the first and second fixed contacts, the moving contact being fixed to a rotary operating element and rotating rigidly therewith, the fixed contacts that can be coupled to the moving contact lying on the rotation plane of the moving contact.

An actuation and control device for opening and/or closing high- and medium-voltage circuit breakers having at least one fixed contact and at least one moving contact, comprising actuation means which are operatively connected to the moving contact and supply the energy for performing the opening/closure movement, the particularity of which consists of the fact that the actuation means comprise a servomotor, an electronic control and power supply unit, and elements for transmitting motion, and that the actuation means and/or the coupling between the fixed contact and the moving contact are such as to achieve a desired speed of the moving contact at the instant in which it separates from the fixed contact.
