  • Device and method for switching medium and/or high voltages with a specific drive characteristic
    Patent number: 10886076
    Abstract: A device for switching medium and/or high voltages has a spring-loaded drive for driving a kinematic chain. At least one energy storage spring and at least one damping element for generating a drive movement with specific drive characteristics are included. The at least one damping element is an active damping element. The damping is actively determined during switching or it is predetermined, in particular depending on environmental variables and/or the type of switching situation, by changing the settings of the at least one damping element.
