  • Circuit breaker mechanism equipped with an energy storage device with a damping stop
    Patent number: 5571255
    Abstract: The energy storage device of a toggle mechanism comprises a telescopic link equipped with a damping stop designed to absorb the excess energy of a main closing spring after the closing dead point of the toggle has been passed, and before the end of travel of the drive lever. This results in a better mechanical endurance of the mechanism.
