Before being placed on master unit 11 on the power line 35, the operator should guarantee each fork-shaped plate 15 ' the maintenance bar be positioned at dotted line position shown in Figure 8.This position is the position of opening, because keep not two protuberances 43 of bridge joint and 44 but rotate 180 ° and extend away from protuberance 44 of bar in this position.If keep bar to be among Fig. 8 by the off-position shown in the solid line, then the maintenance bar is up pulled out in the operator's effect that only need revolt spring 60 from groove 45, when groove 45 is left in the bottom surface 62 that keeps bar, the operator makes and keeps bar to rotate 180 ° aiming at groove 45 again up to it, but be positioned at open position this moment, and should keep bar interlock is in place fast in this position.This operation is shown in Fig. 9.
Make hot stick be matched with eyelet 65 then and master unit 11 is elevated on the power line 35.So just, master unit is placed on the power line 35, this moment, protuberance 43 and 44 pairs of landing grounds extended downwards.Then in this position by keeping handling the bar operation as above-mentioned opening that hot stick draws and twist operation, make two to keep bars 48 to rotate 180 ° and forward off-position to.
When each kept bar to rotate, it slided on protuberance 43, was engaged in the groove 45 of protuberance 43 then apace and in the collimation groove 45 of protuberance 44.When keeping bar 48 to be positioned at off-position, just can rotate master unit 11, make it by keep bar and engaging of power line be suspended on power line 35 below.Very big spring bias and the positive engagement between maintenance bar and collimation groove can be guaranteed to keep bar to be maintained in its closed position.
If particularly switch is not installed with hot stick, then do not need to make to keep bar to forward 180 ° fully open position to.Keep bar fully to leave relative protuberance 44 as long as make, then master unit 11 can be placed on the power line, make by aforementioned manner then to keep bar to close to expose power line groove 40.Therefore the position that can obtain to open is shifted out the maintenance bar and is made its position that forwards 90 ° to from groove 45 in this position, keeps bar to meet at right angles along upper surface and its groove 45 of protuberance 43 in this position of 90 °.The spring bias that is produced by helical spring 60 is enough to make and keeps bar to be pressed against remaining on open mode on the protuberance 43 being placed on the power line 35 up to master unit 11, just can keep this moment bar forward off-position to.
In the embodiment shown in fig. 10, protuberance 44 does not have groove 45, replaces to reduce to protrude 44, and the amount of reduction equals the degree of depth of groove 45.Therefore on off-position, maintenance bar 48 is contained in the groove 45 and passes across two spaces between the protuberance, keeps the free end of bar to engage with the upper surface of protuberance 44.Though this is not a preferred embodiment, be sure of that the maintenance bar of this embodiment can be operated satisfactorily, make master unit can remain on the power line 35.
Should be pointed out that helical spring 60 only provides an embodiment of the spring of essential bias effect, as another embodiment, can also use a kind of spring wave liner and that be known as the wave spring that is similar to.
