Abstract:
A rotating contact supporting shaft for a low-voltage power circuit breaker, whose particularity consists of the fact that it has a modular structure that comprises, along the rotation axis, at least one first and one second supporting module (10, 20), each module being functionally coupled to at least one corresponding moving contact (3) of the circuit breaker and being provided respectively with first and second means (22) for connection to at least one first interconnection module (30); the first interconnection module is interposed between the first and second supporting modules and is provided with third and fourth connection means (31) that are suitable to be coupled respectively to the first and second connection means; the coupling between the first and third connection means and between the second and fourth connection means allows the functional connection between the first and second supporting modules and the direct structural connection of the interconnection module to the first and second supporting modules.
Abstract:
A device for interlocking at least two single- or multipole circuit breakers, of which: - a first circuit breaker, suitable to be fixed to a mounting plate of the first and second circuit breakers; - a second circuit breaker, suitable to be fixed by virtue of fixing means to the first bracket and to be supported thereby; - an interlocking element, provided with a contoured body that is operatively coupled to the second bracket so that it can move with respect to it, the interlocking element being suitable to be rigidly connected to the second bracket, by virtue of locking means, in a chosen position in which it interacts operatively with at least the first opening/closure lever in a condition that corresponds to the opening of the first circuit breaker, preventing its movement and preventing the circuit breakers from being closed simultaneously.
Abstract:
An electric pole for a low-voltage power circuit breaker, comprising: a fixed contact and a movable contact which can be mutually coupled/uncoupled; at least two conducting elements, suitable to electrically connect the movable contact to a power supply grid, the conducting elements being arranged so that the electric currents flowing through them are equally orientated; means for mechanically supporting and actuating the movable contact; and at least one insulating element which is interposed between the conducting elements and is suitable to contrast, by friction with the conducting elements, electrodynamic repulsion forces that are generated between the fixed contact and the movable contact during opening in short-circuit operating conditions.

Abstract:
A supporting base for a low-voltage power circuit breaker of the draw-out or removable type, comprising a substantially parallelepipedal body that has a rear wall, a front wall, two side walls, an upper wall and a lower wall, first and second terminals being provided respectively on the upper and lower walls in order to provide direct or indirect electrical connection to corresponding conductors of a power supply circuit; its particularity consists of the fact that third and fourth terminals are provided on the front wall and are suitable to facilitate electrical coupling to corresponding coupling terminals provided on the circuit breaker, the thrid and fourth electrical terminals being spaced from and electrically connected to, respectively, the first and second terminals.
Abstract:
A low-voltage power circuit breaker, comprising a first casing, which accomodates one or more electric poles and corresponding actuation means, and a second casing, which accommodates means for protecting the circuit breaker, the particularity of the circuit breaker being the fact that the first and second casings comprise direct coupling means which are suitable to connect the first and second casings in a modular manner.
