Sector gear and gas-insulated switchgear having the same
Provided is a sector gear including: a drive gear having a drive part that forms a part of a circle and has a plurality of teeth and a non-drive part that forms a remaining part of the circle and provides a non-contact angle of at least approximately 90 degrees; first and second movers forming a disconnector and a grounded breaking switch, respectively; and first and second driven gears engaged with the drive gear and respectively engaged with the first and second movers and configured to make the first mover or the second mover operate in conjunction with the drive part of the drive gear according to a direction of rotation of the drive gear, wherein an intermediate angle between the first and second movers is between approximately 90-135 degrees. The present invention can reduce the size of the gas-insulated switchgear having the sector gear.
1. A driving gearing for a gas-insulated switchgear, comprising:
a first mover linearly reciprocatable along a first linear axis being slanted with respect to a vertical axis;
a ground breaking switch arranged along the first linear axis being slanted with respect to the vertical axis and contactable to the first mover;
a second mover linearly reciprocatable along a second linear axis being slanted with respect to a horizontal axis, wherein the second linear axis intersects the first linear axis with an internal angle exceeding 90 degrees and less than 135 degrees, wherein the second mover has a first uneven end surface;
a disconnector extended from a main line of the gas-insulated switchgear along the second linear axis being slated with respect to the horizontal axis and having a second uneven end surface which is contactable with the first uneven surface of the second mover;
a first driven gear mated with and driving the first mover;
a second driven gear mated with and driving the second mover; and
a sector gear mated with the first and second driven gears and including i) a driving part having teeth formed on a part of a circumference of the sector gear and ii) a non-driving space having no tooth and occupying a remaining part of the circumference of the sector gear, the occupied remaining part being at least greater than one quarter of a whole circumference of the sector gear,
wherein the sector gear drives the first and second movers at the same time while the driving part is mated with the first and second driven gears, the sector gear drives one of the first and second movers alone while only one of the first and second driven gears is mated with the driving part, wherein the sector gear does not contact with the other one of the first and second driven gears when the driving part is mated with only one of the first and second driven gears.
2. The sector gear as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the first mover includes a first linear rack gear mated with the first driven gear and the second mover includes a second linear rack gear mated with the second driven gear.
3. A gas-insulated switchgear having a driving gearing, the driving gearing comprising:
a first mover linearly reciprocatable along a first linear axis being slanted with respect to a vertical axis;
a ground breaking switch arranged along the first linear axis being slanted with respect to the vertical axis and contactable to the first mover;
a second mover linearly reciprocatable along a second linear axis being slated with respect to a horizontal axis, wherein the second linear axis intersects the first linear axis with an internal angle exceeding 90 degrees and less than 135 degrees, wherein the second mover has a first uneven end surface;
a disconnector extended from a main line of the gas-insulated switchgear along the second linear axis being slated with respect to the horizontal axis and having a second uneven end surface which is contactable with the first uneven surface of the second mover;
a first driven gear mated with and driving the first mover;
a second driven gear mated with and driving the second mover; and
a sector gear mated with the first and second driven gears and including i) a driving part having teeth formed on a part of a circumference of the sector gear and ii) a non-driving space having no tooth and occupying a remaining part of the circumference of the sector gear, the occupied remaining part being at least greater than one quarter of a whole circumference of the sector gear,
wherein the sector gear drives the first and second movers at the same time while the driving part is mated with the first and second driven gears, the sector gear drives one of the first and second movers alone while only one of the first and second driven gears is mated with the driving part, wherein the sector gear does not contact with the other one of the first and second driven gears when the driving part is mated with only one of the first and second driven gears.
4. The gas-insulated switchgear of claim 3 , wherein the first mover includes a first linear rack gear mated with the first driven gear and the second mover includes a second linear rack gear mated with the second driven gear.
