Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A switching device has an encapsulation housing and lashing points. The lashing points are arranged in such a manner that a center of gravity of the switching device lies below the lashing points in a lashing direction.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A switchgear, comprising: an enclosure housing; and a plurality of anchoring points disposed on said enclosure housing, said anchoring points being arranged such that a center of gravity of the switchgear is located below said anchoring points in an anchoring direction, said anchoring points projecting externally of said housing for mounting the switchgear to a mounting structure disposed lateral to said housing. 2. The switchgear according to claim 1 , wherein said enclosure housing has a flange and said anchoring points project beyond a circumference of said flange. 3. The switchgear according to claim 2 , wherein said anchoring points are arranged axially offset with respect to said flange. 4. The switchgear according to claim 1 , further comprising add-on parts laterally supported on said enclosure housing, between two said anchoring points. 5. The switchgear according to claim 4 , wherein said add-on parts are arranged laterally on said enclosure housing on opposite sides of said enclosure housing, in each case between said two anchoring points. 6. The switchgear according to claim 5 , wherein said add-on parts extend beyond anchoring points in the anchoring direction. 7. The switchgear according to claim 1 , further comprising add-on parts arranged laterally on said enclosure housing on opposite sides of said enclosure housing, in each case between two said anchoring points. 8. The switchgear according to claim 7 , wherein said add-on parts extend beyond anchoring points in the anchoring direction. 9. The switchgear according to claim 2 , wherein said flange forms an end-face termination of said enclosure housing above a mounting surface. 10. A switchgear, comprising: an enclosure housing having a flange; and a plurality of anchoring points disposed on said enclosure housing, said anchoring points being arranged such that a center of gravity of the switchgear is located below said anchoring points in an anchoring direction, said anchoring points project beyond a circumference of said flange, said flange being closed by a gear cover. 11. The switchgear according to claim 2 , further comprising a drive device for mutually relatively movable switching contacts of the switchgear supported on said flange. 12. A switchgear, comprising: an enclosure housing; and a plurality of anchoring points disposed on said enclosure housing, said anchoring points being arranged such that a center of gravity of the switchgear is located below said anchoring points in an anchoring direction, said enclosure housing being a pressurized vessel. 13. The switchgear according to claim 2 , wherein said flange circumferentially surrounds an opening of said housing. 14. The switchgear according to claim 13 , wherein said anchoring points project externally of said housing from said flange. 15. The switchgear according to claim 13 , further comprising a gear cover fastened to said flange for fluidically sealing said opening of said housing. 16. The switchgear according to claim 1 , further comprising a gear cover fastened to said housing for fluidically sealing an opening of said housing. 17. The switchgear according to claim 10 , wherein said enclosure housing is a pressurized vessel. 18. The switchgear according to claim 10 , further wherein said gear cover is fastened to said housing for fluidically sealing an opening of said housing.
