121 Electric switch with an actuator US14622285 2015-02-13 US09613765B2 2017-04-04 Martin Koepsell
An electric switch has a housing with an upper surface through which a actuating plunger extends at a position close to a side surface. The actuating plunger is arranged to operate a switching element disposed inside the housing. An actuating lever is fixed to the side surface adjacent the plunger such that the actuating lever extends over and beyond the upper surface of the housing. A stop for the actuating plunger is arranged inside the housing. With this switch the actuating travel is extended solely in relation to the switch. Furthermore a long over-travel exists following switching, wherein any forces which might occur through improper use in relation to the switch do not cause any damaging effects to the switching element.

Further, a first reinforcement portion is formed on the top surface of the lever member, excluding an object abutment portion with which the object to be detected is to be abutted, and a second reinforcement portion is formed on the bottom surface of the lever member, excluding a plunger abutment portion
133 ELECTROMAGNETIC MECHANISM AND MANUAL SWITCHGEAR OF ELECTROMAGNETIC MECHANISM US13575226 2011-03-14 US20120306601A1 2012-12-06 Taehyun Kim
With a switchgear provided with an electromagnetic mechanism of the invention, a bolt rod is disposed for an opening spring whose load acts over an entire movable range of a moving core so as to receive a load of the opening spring in an expanding direction by the bolt rod. A load of the opening spring in the expanding direction is thus received by the bolt rod. The opening spring is compressed and expanded by rotating the bolt rod to be moved by the screw structure. Hence, in a case where maintenance is performed while maintaining a contact at an intermediate position between an opening position and a closing position, it becomes possible to perform a manual opening and closing operation at a lower speed than a de-energization operation while holding the contact at the intermediate position between the opening position and the closing position.
