Application: Dropout recloser (Patent ID: US20240170946A1)
The patent filed by S&C Electric Co. describes a dropout recloser that can disconnect from a cutout after a predetermined number of fault interrupting operations, providing sectionalization with a visible gap. The device includes fault interrupting components, a drop out mechanism, and a controller, with the drop out mechanism potentially featuring a bi-stable actuator and motion limiting structures. The recloser can operate in various modes or sequences.
The device for interrupting electricity flow in a circuit is designed to be mounted in a cutout and includes a housing, post contact, trunnion contact, and a dropout mechanism. The dropout mechanism allows the device to release from the cutout by changing the position of the post contact and trunnion contact, enabling the device to rotate within the hinge contact. The method for releasing the device involves changing the relative position of the contacts and rotating the device to disconnect it from the circuit, with options for translating the housing, actuating the dropout mechanism, and sealing the mechanism within the device.
