Abstract: A trip device for a circuit breaker includes: a crossbar rotatably installed to perform the trigger function; and bimetal that is curved upon the occurrence of an abnormal current and presses and rotates the crossbar by means of a gap adjustment member. The crossbar is movable in the direction of a rotating shaft of the crossbar, and the gap adjustment member is attached to and detached from either the crossbar or the bimetal at varying angles so that a contact surface is parallel or at an angle to the direction of movement of the crossbar.
Abstract: A switch device capable of increasing the operation speed at the time of reversion of contacts, thereby suppressing generation of arcs, and capable of increasing the contact pressure between the contacts, thereby reducing the bouncing of the contacts. A first rotor plate and a second rotor plate are operatively coupled with each other with a torsion coil spring and when the first rotor plate is rotated, a reversing force from the torsion coil spring causes the contact driving part to engage with or disengage from the contact plate.
Abstract: This invention is related to an auto tripping key switch, comprising a switch housing being formed with at least one guide groove and one slideway at an inner side thereof; a first contact plate and a second contact plate that are fastened to the switch housing, the first contact plate being provided with a first contact and the second contact being connected to a deformable bi-metallic strip provided with a second contact that opposes to and is spaced from the first contact at an appropriate distance. This invention further comprises a key that is provided with a first protrusion engaging the guide groove within the switch housing such that the key is only slidable along the guide groove, the key having an inner serrate edge; and a cylindrical insulative housing that is slidable in the switch housing and has an end being formed with a serrate edge matching the serrate edge of the key so as to subject rotation of the cylindrical insulative housing when the key is being pushed.
Abstract: This invention is related to an auto tripping multi-state key switch, comprising a switch housing being formed with at least one guide groove and one slideway at an inner side thereof; a first contact strip and a second contact strip both fastened to the switch housing, the first contact strip including a first contact and the second contact strip including a second contact; a bi-metallic strip having thereon a third contact and being connected to a connection plate include thereon a fourth contact; a key being provided with at least one first protrusion thereon for engaging the guide groove within the switch housing, the key having an end that is formed with a serrated edge; a rotary housing being provided with at least one second protrusion thereon for engaging the guide groove and the slideway allowing sliding movement of the rotary housing within the switch housing, the rotary housing having a top end being formed with a serrated edge that cooperates with the serrated edge at the bottom of the key, and th
