The present disclosure relates to an interlock mechanism for automatically locking and unlocking a lock system of an electrical cabinet based on the state of bolted pressure contact switches housed within the electrical cabinet.

Interlock mechanism for a distribution cabinet

The present disclosure relates to electrical devices housed in a distribution box and, more particularly, to an interlock mechanism for visually indicating whether main contacts operated by the electrical devices are in an open condition or a closed condition.

A electrical pole unit includes an actuator shaft that is rotatable about a switch axis to switch the pole unit between open and closed conditions. The actuator shaft is configured to mate coaxially with another actuator shaft in another pole unit to transmit rotation from one actuator shaft to another without a fastener to interconnect the shafts.

Actuating shaft structure for an electrical switch

A pole unit has an actuator shaft that is rotatable about a switch axis to switch the pole unit between open and closed conditions. A linkage is configured to rotate the actuator shaft in response to movement of the handle pivotally about the orthogonal axis. The linkage includes a panel configured to rotate the actuator shaft upon sliding movement of the panel. The linkage further includes links that are pivotally coupled in series between the handle and the panel to slide the panel in response to pivotal movement of the handle.

Mechanism to operate a switch with a door mounted handle

An electrical switching apparatus includes a first pole unit, a second pole unit, and a busbar assembly interconnecting the first pole unit with the second pole unit in series or in parallel. A first mechanism is configured to switch the first pole unit between its open and closed conditions. A second mechanism is configured to switch the second pole unit between its open and closed conditions. An actuating assembly is configured to actuate the first and second mechanisms to switch the first and second pole units from their open conditions to their closed conditions simultaneously, and to switch the first and second pole units from their closed conditions to their open conditions simultaneously.

Electrical switching mechanism control apparatus

An apparatus includes a switch having alternately open and closed conditions, and a shunt trip mechanism configured to detect and respond to an electrical fault condition. The apparatus further includes an operating mechanism including a spring assembly. The operating mechanism is actuatable manually to deflect the spring assembly into a stressed condition, and is actuatable automatically in response to the shunt trip mechanism to shift the switch into the open condition upon return deflection of the spring assembly from the stressed condition. The spring assembly may include springs connected in parallel.

Electrical switching apparatus with springs and shunt trip mechanism

An apparatus includes a circuit interrupting device installed in a cabinet. The circuit interrupting device has an actuator configured for rotation about a switching axis to switch the device between ON and OFF conditions. The apparatus further includes a front access hub supported for rotation about an axis orthogonal to the switching axis. A handle is coupled to the front access hub to rotate the front access hub about the orthogonal axis. A mechanism interconnects the front access hub with the actuator to rotate the actuator in response to rotation of the front access hub.

Safety switch access arrangement

An electrical switch assembly includes a first contact supported for movement into and out of electrical connection with a second contact. A cam assembly is configured to deflect a spring into a stressed condition, and to move the first contact into electrical connection with the second contact under a bias of the spring upon return deflection of the spring from the stressed condition. A motor has an output member. A linkage interconnects the output member with the cam assembly to deflect the spring into the stressed condition in response to movement of the output member.
