Abstract

A run/test position indicator device of a vacuum circuit breaker includes: a position indication cam installed between a girder, a fixed body, and a main body of a carriage, a moving body, and rotating at a certain angle according to a change in the space between the girder and the main body of the carriage; and an indication member, to which the position indication cam is rotatably coupled, having a mark symbol to allow the position indication cam to indicate a run and test position of a main body of circuit breaker.

Claims (25)

1. A run/test position indicator device of a vacuum circuit breaker, the device comprising:

a position indication cam installed between a girder, a fixed body, and a main body of a carriage, a moving body, and rotating at a certain angle according to a change in the space between the girder and the main body of the carriage; and

an indication member, to which the position indication cam is rotatably coupled, having a mark symbol to allow the position indication cam to indicate a run and test position of a main body of circuit breaker;

wherein the position indication cam is configured to be rotated in units of certain intervals along a lengthwise direction; and

wherein the position indication cam comprises a guiding unit for constraining a rotation by the main body of the carriage.

2. The run/test position indicator device of claim 1 , wherein the guiding unit comprises:

a plurality of first guiding units formed along a lengthwise direction of the position indication cam; and

one or more second guiding units formed between the first guiding units and slopingly connecting the first guiding units such that they have a phase difference.

3. The run/test position indicator device of claim 2 , wherein a cam holder is coupled with the main body of the carriage, in which the guiding unit of the position indication cam is inserted to allow the position indication cam to be slidably rotated.

4. The run/test position indicator device of claim 3 , wherein the cam holder comprises a sliding part formed in a penetrating manner to allow the position indication cam to be inserted and slid.

5. The run/test position indicator device of claim 4 , wherein a restraining part is formed on an inner circumferential surface of the sliding part and coupled with the guiding unit of the position indication cam to restrain a rotation.

6. The run/test position indicator device of claim 3 , wherein the cam holder comprises a fixed part hook-coupled to the main body of the carriage.

7. The run/test position indicator device of claim 6 , wherein the fixed part includes a plurality of fixed pieces divided along a circumferential direction.

8. The run/test position indicator device of claim 7 , wherein a stopping protrusion is formed on an outer circumferential surface of each of the fixed pieces.

9. The run/test position indicator device of claim 1 , wherein the position indication cam has such as length that both ends thereof are maintained to be in a state of being coupled between the girder and the main body of the carriage even when the girder and the main body of the carriage reach a position at which they are completely separated.

10. The run/test position indicator device of claim 9 , wherein the position indication cam includes a plurality of fixed protrusions formed at certain intervals so that the position indication cam can be constrained in a lengthwise direction.

11. The run/test position indicator device of claim 10 , wherein the fixed protrusions are formed to be tightly attached to facing surfaces of a front plate and a rear plate provided at the girder at a region where the fixed protrusions are inserted into the girder.

12. The run/test position indicator device of claim 9 , wherein the position indication cam comprises an indication part formed on the surface of an end portion exposed from a front surface of the girder to allow a current location of the circuit breaker to be recognized.

13. A run/test position indicator device of a vacuum circuit breaker, the device comprising:

a position indication cam installed between a girder, a fixed body, and a main body of a carriage, a moving body, and rotating at a certain angle according to a change in the space between the girder and the main body of the carriage; and

an indication member, to which the position indication cam is rotatably coupled, having a mark symbol to allow the position indication cam to indicate a run and test position of a main body of circuit breaker;

wherein the position indication cam has such as length that both ends thereof are maintained to be in a state of being coupled between the girder and the main body of the carriage even when the girder and the main body of the carriage reach a position at which they are completely separated.

14. The run/test position indicator device of claim 13 , wherein the position indication cam includes a plurality of fixed protrusions formed at certain intervals so that the position indication cam can be constrained in a lengthwise direction.

15. The run/test position indicator device of claim 14 , wherein the fixed protrusions are formed to be tightly attached to facing surfaces of a front plate and a rear plate provided at the girder at a region where the fixed protrusions are inserted into the girder.

16. The run/test position indicator device of claim 13 , wherein the position indication cam comprises an indication part formed on the surface of an end portion exposed from a front surface of the girder to allow a current location of the circuit breaker to be recognized.
