Patent number: 11634932Abstract: A locking system for an enclosure, including a control bracket mounted to a door of the enclosure and configured to slide in a longitudinal direction along a guide rod running through a pin bracket of the control bracket. The control bracket further includes a latching pin to secure the door of the enclosure. A handle mechanism has a push rod that causes the control bracket to slide along the longitudinal direction, also causing the latching pin to move into a position that secures the door.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2019Date of Patent: April 25, 2023Assignee: EATON INTELLIGENT POWER LIMITEDInventors: James Darryl Robinson, Russell Irvin Boyce, Christopher Harris Bridges

Patent number: 10833491Abstract: An apparatus includes a cell pan that supports a circuit breaker within a switchgear cell, and a lift pan that carries a circuit breaker outside of the switchgear cell. The lift pan has a track for a roller on the circuit breaker. The apparatus further includes an extension rail that interconnects the lift pan with the cell pan in an aligned position. With the lift pan in aligned position, the track on the lift pan can receive the roller upon horizontal draw-out movement of the circuit breaker from the cell pan. A latch on the extension rail has a blocking position in which it blocks the roller from rolling outward off the cell pan, and has a non-blocking position in which it does not block the roller from rolling outward off the cell pan. The latch automatically moves from the blocking position to the non-blocking position under the influence of the lift pan upon movement of the lift pan into the aligned position.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2019Date of Patent: November 10, 2020Assignee: Eaton Intelligent Power LimitedInventor: James Darryl Robinson

Patent number: 9246318Abstract: An adjustable wireway assembly for use in an electrical enclosure includes a panel structured to form a portion of the electrical enclosure, the panel having a first aperture defined therein. The assembly further includes a plate member selectively coupled to the panel about a portion of the first aperture in at least one of a first position and a second position in a manner that blocks at least a portion of the first aperture and thereby defines a second aperture formed from a portion of the first aperture. When coupled in the first position, the second aperture is of a first area and when coupled in the second position, the second aperture is of a second area different than the first area.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2014Date of Patent: January 26, 2016Assignee: EATON CORPORATIONInventors: Matthew Ryan Hussey, Jeffrey Scott Kuykendall, James Darryl Robinson, Mitchell Dean Fretwell, Michael Howard Abrahamsen, Daniel Garett Sims, Michael Davis Pearce
