Abstract

A switching device arrangement has an encapsulation housing and also a drive device. The drive device is supported on the encapsulation housing. The drive device is arranged at a distance from the encapsulation housing via a spacer device. A receiving space is delimited by the spacer device.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A switchgear assembly, comprising:
an encapsulating housing;
a drive device and a kinematic chain connected to said drive device for transmitting a movement of said drive device into an interior of said encapsulating housing; and
a spacer device mounting said drive device to said encapsulating housing, said spacer device forming a receiving space between said drive device and said encapsulating housing;
said encapsulating housing including a bulging wall formed with a flange surface, and said spacer device being mounted on and enclosing said bulging wall.

2. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein a portion of said kinematic chain is arranged in said receiving space.

3. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said kinematic chain is configured in said receiving space to convert a movement to be transmitted from a rotational movement into a translational movement, or vice versa.

4. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said kinematic chain is divided in said receiving space into a plurality of branches, or vice versa.

5. . The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said kinematic chain includes a yoke body.

6. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said encapsulating housing is formed with a cover and said spacer device is arranged on said cover.

7. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said spacer device is disposed so that the movement is introduced in a fluid-tight manner into the interior of said encapsulating housing.

8. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said spacer device is annular.

9. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , which comprises an adapter assembly connecting said drive device and said spacer device to one another.

10. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the interior of said encapsulating housing is filled with an electrically insulating fluid.

11. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said encapsulating housing is formed with a flange surface and wherein a phase conductor is supported on said flange surface in an electrically insulating fashion.

12. The switchgear assembly according to claim 11 , which comprises a circuit breaker unit disposed in the interior of said encapsulating housing, said phase conductor forming a part of said circuit breaker unit.

13. The switchgear assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said bulging wall is formed with multiple flange surfaces that are oriented substantially parallel to one another.

14. The switchgear assembly according to claim 13 , wherein said multiple flange surfaces are formed to lie within a common plane.

15. A switchgear assembly, comprising:
an encapsulating housing;
a drive device and a kinematic chain connected to said drive device for transmitting a movement of said drive device into an interior of said encapsulating housing;
a spacer device mounting said drive device to said encapsulating housing, said spacer device forming a receiving space between said drive device and said encapsulating housing a plurality of bellows for fluid-tightly sealing said receiving space relative to said interior of said encapsulating housing; and
wherein said kinematic chain reaches through said receiving space and into the interior of said encapsulated housing, and said interior of said encapsulating housing is fluid-tightly separated from said receiving space.

16. The switchgear assembly according to claim 15 , wherein said encapsulating housing includes a bulging wall and said spacer device is mounted on said bulging wall.

17. The switchgear assembly according to claim 16 , wherein said bulging wall is formed with a flange surface.

18. The switchgear assembly according to claim 16 , wherein said bulging wall is formed with multiple flange surfaces that are oriented substantially parallel to one another.

19. The switchgear assembly according to claim 18 , wherein said multiple flange surfaces are formed to lie within a common plane.

20. The switchgear assembly according to claim 15 , wherein said bulging wall is formed with at least one flange surface.

21. The switchgear assembly according to claim 15 , wherein said bulging wall is formed with multiple flange surfaces and said bellows are mounted on said flange surfaces.

22. The switchgear assembly according to claim 21 , wherein said multiple flange surfaces are formed to lie within a common plane.
