Abstract: A low-voltage circuit breaker includes at least one switching-on catch for initiating a switching-on process, and at least one insertion mechanism, which has an insertion shaft, for insertion of the circuit breaker into the withdrawable frame, or for removal of the circuit breaker from the withdrawable frame. The low-voltage circuit breaker further includes at least one power-transmitting system, connected to the insertion shaft, and connectable to the switching-on catch such that the switching-on catch can be moved to an activated state from a deactivated state at a defined unloading position of the movement, and can be moved to a deactivated state from an activated state at a defined reset position in the movement.

Abstract: The invention relates to a contact arrangement for a vacuum switch tube for low-voltage power switches. The aim of the invention is to reduce the contact force required to control short circuit currents. To this end, a twin-contact contact arrangement is used wherein every contact comprises a plurality of separate individual contacts having a defined spring rate. At least one of the contact bodies (4) is configured as a two-layer spiral contact with a lower layer consisting of a highly elastic material and an upper layer (7) consisting of a highly electroconductive material. A contact coat (9) consisting of a contact material is provided on the upper layer in the outer zone of every contact arm (10).

Abstract: A retrofittable earthling device includes a first contact arranged on the switching device and a second contact arranged on the module frame by way of a contact carrier. They are adjacently spring-mounted, during the movement of the switching device from its point of separation into its operating position. In order to relieve the contact carrier, in one such device, of electrodynamic effects and thus to make the same easy to assemble, the contact carrier includes a first partial region for connecting an earthing device, and a second partial region which can be connected to the second contact, in addition to a contact strip connecting the two partial regions. The first partial region can be connected to the module frame in a fixed manner and the second partial region is held on the rear wall of the module frame, with transversal play in relation to the direction of movement of the switching device.

Abstract: A headlight for motor vehicles is produced so that it has a light source emitting light rays, a reflector which forms by reflection from the light rays emitted by the light source a light beam which is dispersed in horizontal planes and extends substantially parallel in vertical planes. The reflector has an optical axis, the light source is arranged so that its longitudinal axis extends parallel to the optical axis of the reflector. The reflector has an apex region which is formed so that the light emitted from the light source is reflected by the apex region as light rays converging in horizontal longitudinal planes which produce great images of the light source in lateral edge regions of a measuring screen arranged in front of the reflector.

Abstract: An illuminating device for motor vehicles has a plurality of light sources formed as semiconductor light sources, each of the semiconductor light sources emitting light of only one color and light colors emitted by different semiconductor light sources are different. The semiconductor light sources include several semiconductor light sources which emit light of a same color. The semiconductor light sources are distributed so that the lights emitted by all semiconductor light sources produce a light of a uniform color which exits the illuminating device.

Abstract: The headlight has a one-piece reflector which includes an upper reflector portion with a light source for making a low beam, a lower reflector portion with another light source for making a fog light beam and a laterally positioned reflector portion for making a high beam. The lower reflector portion has a surface area which is comparatively small relative to the upper reflector portion. The light emitted from the other light source is reflected by the lower reflector portion in rays nearly parallel in a vertical longitudinal plane or inclined gently downward in the propagation direction. In the horizontal longitudinal plane light rays reflected from positions on the peak region of the lower reflector portion converge more as the distance of the position from the optic axis increases, light rays reflected from positions on the central region converge less as the distance of the position from the optic axis increases and light rays reflected from the edge region are nearly parallel.
