  • Resilient clamping device for securing an arc chute cover of a switching device
    Patent number: 4613734
    Abstract: The invention concerns a mounting arrangement for an arc-quenching chute cover upon a base of a switching device. For that purpose it includes resilient clamping elements, such as a quick-release fastener which guides a coil spring and a rubber bushing. The anchoring of the quick-release fastener in the base is achieved by twisting a pin into a widened region. When excess pressures arise inside the arc-quenching chute cover, the rubber bushing is compressed and has a damping effect on the shaft portion of the quick-release fastener passing through it.
