  • Patent number: 6404312
    Abstract: DC electromagnet comprising a magnetic circuit equipped with a yoke and a magnetic core fixed at its ends with vanes and capable of axial displacement. The magnetic core 21 is smooth and the vanes 22,23 are shrink fitted and fixed to the ends of the smooth core. One of the vanes 22 is fixed to the core in a reference position and is then put into contact with the associated flange 25 of yoke 14, and the other vane 23 is shrink fitted and pushed into an adjustable position determined by bringing the yoke 14 into contact with the other flange 26.

  • Patent number: 5825273
    Abstract: Differential thermal tripping device with bimetallic strips for electrical protection appliance such as a circuit breaker. The circuit breaker includes a tripping assembly with two contact strips 30, 40 free to move along the X direction, and for each bimetallic strip, a single adjustment part 15 fixed to a free inclined edge 19 of the bimetallic strip head 13, adjustable along the X direction, in the position obtained after heating of the bimetallic strips for calibration. The assembly 30, 40 may consist of a frame supporting adjustment parts until they are fixed and provided with separable areas 36, 46 to generate two contact strips following cutting.
