  • Patent number: 11478965
    Abstract: The invention relates to a mould for moulding a component with one or more inserts, the mould comprising a mould body for defining in part the shape of the component, and at least one insert holder for holding an insert within the mould body. Each insert holder is movably supported such it can move relative to the mould body in a direction of shrinkage of the component, and wherein the mould further comprises a biasing means to bias each insert holder to a first position relative to the mould body. The invention also relates to a method of moulding.

  • Patent number: 9484729
    Abstract: An insulating support (20) for insulating an electrical conductor contained in aligned casing portions (34, 35), is held in a housing (39) defined by the flanges (36, 37) for joining the casing portions (34, 35) together, the flanges presenting contact faces (38) around the periphery (24) of the support (20). A single sealing gasket (41) is sufficient to prevent the atmosphere in the casing leaking to the outside, and that simplifies assembly of the electrical equipment, while at the same time protecting the support (20) from the outside. For application to medium- and high-voltage electrical equipment.

  • Patent number: 8173927
    Abstract: To control a switch apparatus having two interrupters, such as a busbar disconnector and a grounding disconnector, there is provided a rotary control shaft arranged away from, and at right angles to, the planes of straight line motion of the movable contacts, at least one disk cam fastened to the control shaft and having two distinct internal cam grooves, and two pairs of levers hinged to each other. One of the levers has one end hinged at a fixed point while its other end is hinged to the other lever, which is itself hinged to one of the movable contacts, a spigot being located between the two ends of each of the levers that has one end hinged at a fixed point, the spigot being engaged in one of the cam grooves so as to constitute a cam follower.
