Claims. 01. 2oo 5o) My invention relates particularly to enclosed or safety switches.
One object is to provide a construction in which the box or receptacle may be locked or sealed with the circuit either open or closed or alternatively in which the actuating handle may be locked either in the 0115 or on position or in which the,cover may be released while the circuit is closed.
Another object is to provide a structure in which the switch contact mechanism is entirely disconnected from the exterior actuating handle when the cover is opened.
Another object is to provide a structure in which the switch may be operated independently of the outer handle when the cover is open.
Another object is to provide a structure by which the handle will be automatically returned to its proper relative position upon closing the cover whether the circuit is open or closed.
Another object is to provide a box and actu- 'ating mechanism which can receive a complete circuit breaker or switch.
Fig. l is a front view of a switch involving one form of my invention, part of the cover being broken away and the parts being shown in the open circuit or ofi position.
Fig. 2 is a side view and partial section on the plane of the line 2-2 of Fig. 1, parts of the actuating mechanism being shown in dotted lines in the closed circuit or "on position.
Fig. 3 is a front view of the construction showing the box cover opened.
Fig. 4 is a transverse sectional view on the plane of the line l4 of Fig. 2 looking upwardly and showing in dotted lines a padlock for holding the cover closed.
Fig. 5 is a longitudinal sectional view on the plane of the line 5-5 'of Fig. 1 showing the parts in full lines in the closed circuit or on position and showing the interlocking latch in dotted lines in the upper part of the figure in the position which it occupies when retracted to permit opening of the cover while the circuit is closed and showing in dotted lines in the bottom of the figure the position of the actuating slide when the actuating handle is locked in the OE position.
Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the interlocking parts and therelease device.
Fig. 7 is a transverse section on the plane of the line 1-1 of Fig. 1 showing the actuating handle padlocked or sealed in the of! position in which position the cover is locked closed and cannot be opened.
The box ID has a cover I l hinged at l2. The cover may be locked or sealed in a closed position by the padlock or sealing device applied to the lugs l4 and IS. A pair of these lugs is pro vided at the top and bottom for added security. The padlock I6 is shown in Fig. 4 and a screw IS in Fig. 1 for holding the cover closed and yet permitting the switch to be operated.
The switch unit or circuit breaker I! may be of any suitable form or construction and provided with a handle or lever l8 for direct operation of the switch. In constructions of this character the switch unit per se is complete and self contained and may be mounted upon a platform or sub-base l9.
In the form shown a yoke constitutes an auxiliary interior actuator pivoted at 2| and 22 and engages the outer end of the handle or switch lever Hi. This yoke has a projecting stud 23 by means of which it is actuated through the medium of the actuating mechanism carried by the cover. This actuating mechanism includes the handle 24 having a hub at 25 near the center of the cover. On the inside of the cover is an arm 26 which is secured to the inner end of the hub 25 of the handle 24. A plate 21 is carried by the cover, guided between studs or rollers 28, 28. This plate is connected to the arm 26 by means of a roller and slot carried by the parts. In this case the roller 29 is carried by the arm 26 and the slot 30 is formed in the plate 21.
The plate 21 has a flange 3| with a notch 32 for engaging the stud 23. When the cover is closed the switch is actuated by swinging the exterior handle 24 from left to right or vice versa. This swinging movement rotates the hub of the handle and through the instrumentality of the roller 29 and slot 30 moves the plate 21 with its flange 3| up and down so as to move the yoke 20 and throw the switch on" or off as the case may be.
It will be understood that the switch mechanism may be of any suitable type including the quick make and break type of circuit breaker involving the use of quick make and break mechanism (not shown). It is customary in such mechanisms for the handle It! to have a certain lost motion spring connection with the movable switch members so that the handle may be moved to a limited extent without actuating the switch mechanism.
The flange 3| of the plate 21 preferably has inclined walls 33 and 34 leading to the notch 32 so that when the cover is being closed the external handle 24 and the yoke 20 will be brought indle, the handle will be automatically moved to its proper position corresponding to the position of the switch.
The flange 3| is also provided with a shoulder or projection 35 adapted to interlock with the stationary stop 36 carried by the inside of the box. This interlock occurs only when the handle 24 is moved to the position shown in Fig. 7 which is somewhat to the left of the normal of? or open circuit position. The handle may be padlocked or sealed in this extreme off position by means of a padlock 31 or other suitable device as shown in Fig. 7.
The cover is provided with a projection 38 which extends outwardly a distance which leaves only slight clearance for the swinging of the handle 24 so that when the padlock or sealing device 31 embraces the handle it prevents the handle from swinging across the projection 38 thus looking the handle in the position shown in full lines in Fig. '7 or in the position shown in dotted lines at the right.
When the handle is in this full line position it is impossible to open the box because of the interlocking of the shoulder 35 with the stop 36. In the upper part of the box is another latch 39 which is hinged to the wall of the box and biased by a spring 40 against the stop 4|. The flange 3| of the plate 21 has a shoulder 42 adapted to slide underneath the stop 39 when the handle 24 is moved to the on position as shown in dotted lines in Figs. 1 and 2 and in full lines in Fig. 5. The handle 24 may be locked in this position in a manner similar to that shown in Fig. '7.
The latch 39, however, may be readily retracted by means of a retracting arm 43 which is hinged to the cover and biased by spring 44 into a position just beneath the stop 39. This arm may be actuated in any suitable manner from outside the box for instance by means of an externally extending hub 45 which is rigidly connected with the arm 43 and which can be rotated with the retracting arm by means of a key 48 so as to unlock or release the cover when the circuit is "on" and thus permit inspection of the switch and the entire interior of the box without interrupting the service.
The flange 3| is preferably provided with an inclined surface 46 for engaging the lower side of the stop 39 so that if it is attempted to close the cover while the handle 24 and connected parts are in the on" position the latch will be automatically moved out of the way without damaging the mechanism. The flange 3| is also preferably provided with another incline 41 for engaging the stop 36 so that if it is attempted to close the cover with the handle 24 and attached parts in the extreme off position the plate 21 will be automatically raised without damaging the mechanism.
