Abstract: A transfer machine comprising a conveyor for conveying workpieces to stations and numerically controlled machine tools disposed at their respective stations. These machine tools are controlled by sequence controllers, which are connected with their respective numerical controllers. All the programs for machining operations are stored in each numerical controller. When some station is in trouble, the normal machine tool disposed at a station adjacent to the station in trouble is caused to execute the program originally assigned to the station in trouble, as well as the program assigned to the normal station itself.

Abstract: A protrusion is formed downstream of the throat of an insulating nozzle of a gas-insulated circuit breaker of puffer type. Quenching gas, after collision with the protrusion, is blown against an arc generated between a fixed arcing contact and a moving arcing contact in the opening process of the gas-insulated circuit breaker. As a result, a pressure drop at or near the forward end (Q) of the fixed arcing contact can be prevented thereby to improve the insulation strength in the opening process.

Abstract: An electromagnetic puffer type gas circuit breaker comprises two opposing puffer type gas circuit breaking units mounted on midway support means, actuating means for driving the circuit breaking units, an electromagnetic actuating unit drivingly coupled to the actuating means, and current transfer mechanism for transferring and applying the interrupting current to the electromagnetic actuating unit during a circuit breaking operation. The current transfer mechanism is located, in operative connection to the actuating means, at a point above the midway support means and in a spaced relation to the electromagnetic actuating unit. The contact surface area of the current-conducting path portion leading to the transfer mechanism is a fraction of that of another current-conducting path portion for the passage of most of the rated current. These features provide ease of inspection and replacement of the current transfer mechanism and reduces the operating force requirement of the breaker.

Abstract: A puffer type gas circuit breaker comprises a first and a second arcing electrodes movable relative to each other, an insulating nozzle surrounding the second arcing electrode, a puffer device for introducing an arc-suppressing gas into the insulating nozzle to puff out the arc produced between the two arcing electrodes when the breaker is in motion for circuit breaking, and a movable shield device for relieving the concentration of an electric field at the front end of the first arcing electrode during the breaker motion for circuit breaking. When the breaker is closed and the circuit made, the movable shield device surrounds the first arcing electrode and insulating nozzle, with a predetermined gap between itself and the insulating nozzle opposite thereto, and is kept at the same potential as the first arcing electrode. The circuit breaker further includes a device for maintaining the predetermined gap and the same potential at least in the early stage of the breaker motion for current breaking.
