DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

Hereinafter, a solid insulated disconnection switch and a solid insulated switchgear using the same will be explained in more detail.

FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing an assembled state of a disconnection switch according to a first embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 6A is a plan view showing the disconnection switch of FIG. 5, FIG. 6B is a section view showing an opened state of the disconnection switch of FIG. 6A taken along line ‘II-II’of FIG. 6A, and FIG. 7 is a section view showing a closed state of the disconnection switch of FIG. 6B.

As shown in FIGS. 5 to 7, the switchgear for receiving/distributing electric power includes three disconnection switches 100 disposed in parallel with each other in correspondence with a three-phase AC(Alternating Current) circuit.

The disconnection switch 100 includes a base frame 11 having a body portion for division-connecting an electric load, a stationary contactor 31 connected to a electric power source(not shown), a movable contactor 21 linearly movable to a position contacting to the stationary contactor 31 or a position separated from the stationary contactor 31, an insulating shaft 41 which transmits a driving force to the movable contactor 21, an insulating spacer 51 which provides an insulating distance between the movable contactor 21 and the stationary contactor 31 in an opened state, a driving source assembly which provides a rotating power source, and a power transferring assembly 71 which transmits the rotating power from the driving source assembly 61 to the insulating shaft 41.

As shown in FIG. 7, the base frame 11 includes a load connection portion having a load connection conductor for transmitting a current supplied form the stationary contactor 31 to a electric load(not shown) in a closed state. The load connection portion has a protruding connection portion 13 having a convex shape and inserted into one load side conductor thus to be electrically connected thereto, and a concave connection portion 15 having a concave shape and inserted into another load side conductor thus to be electrically connected thereto. The load connection portion is implemented as a frame having a cavity tunneled in one direction, and is formed of an insulating solid material.

The movable contactor 21 separated from the stationary contactor 31 is disposed in the cavity of the base frame 11. More concretely, a base frame conductor 19 having the cavity is fixed to an inner circumferential surface of the base frame 11 so as to be electrically connected to the load connection portion composed of the protruding connection portion 13 and the concave connection portion 15. A load side movable conductor 25 of the movable contactor 21 is slidably disposed in the cavity of the base frame conductor 19 in a longitudinal direction (horizontally) in a state of being electrically connected to the base frame conductor 19. The load side movable conductor 25 performs a slidable motion in the cavity of the base frame conductor 19. However, the base frame conductor 19 and the load side movable conductor 25 are electrically connected to each other by a sliding contact between an inner circumferential surface of the base frame conductor 19 and a load side band contact 28 (refer to FIG. 9) installed to surround an outer circumference of one end of the load side movable conductor 25. The band contact 28 is a commercial product available as a trademark “Multi Band” on the market. The term “band contact” is abbreviation for LA-CU Multilam Contact Band manufactured by Multi-Contact AG in Germany. The band contact is implemented by connecting a plurality of thin copper contact plates between two long-extended stainless strips. The band contact, which has high electric conductivity, high abrasion resistance, and high heat resistance, recently has been started to use as industrial electrical contact material for electrical connection or breaking operation.

As shown in FIG. 6B, the movable contactor 21 is disposed in the base frame 11 in an opened state that the movable contactor 21 is separated from the stationary contactor 31. However, in a closed state, the movable contactor 21 moves towards the stationary contactor 31 to come in contact with a fixed contact 33, thereby forming a circuit which supplies a current to an external load. Over the circuit, the current flows from a power supply to the external load, through the main bus, a main bus connection portion 81 (refer to FIG. 8), the fixed contact 33, the movable contactor 21, and the base frame conductor 19 of the base frame 11. The movable contactor 21 will be explained with reference to FIG. 9.

In FIG. 7, the stationary contactor 31 is disposed at one end of the disconnection switch 11 in a longitudinal direction, and is connected to the main bus connection portion 81. The stationary contactor 31 is electrically connected to the movable contactor 21 by contacting thereto in a closed state, and has a ‘U’-shaped section. The movable contactor 21 is inserted into the ‘U’-shaped portion thus to slidably contact and to be conducted. One end of the insulating shaft 41 is rotatably supported at the ‘U’-shaped portion of the stationary contactor 31 by is rotation supporting means such as a bearing.

The insulating shaft 41 is formed of a reinforced plastic having desirable insulation and abrasion resistance. The insulating shaft 41 serves as a dynamic power transferring unit for moving the movable contactor 21 to a position to contact the stationary contactor 31 or a position to be separated from the stationary contactor 31. As one method for moving the movable contactor 21 to a position to contact the stationary contactor 31 or a position to be separated from the stationary contactor 31, the insulating shaft 41 having a thread portion 43 to enable a dynamic power transmission, having a long surface insulating distance, and having a short actual straight length was adopted in the present invention. A thread portion 43 is formed at the insulating shaft 41, and a corresponding thread portion is also formed at an inner circumferential surface of the movable contactor 21. Accordingly, the insulating shaft 41 is rotated by receiving power from the driving source assembly 61, and thus the movable contactor 21 is linearly movable along the thread portion 43 of the insulating shaft 41 (refer to FIG. 9). To this end, the insulating shaft 41 is disposed in passing through the movable contactor 21 and the base frame 11. One end of the insulating shaft 41 is rotatably supported by the stationary contactor 31, and another end of the insulating shaft 41 is connected to the power transferring assembly 71.

The insulating spacer 51 is disposed between the base frame 11 and the stationary contactor 31 so that the movable contactor 21 and the stationary contactor 31 can obtain a sufficient space and a sufficient surface insulating distance in an opened state.

The insulating spacer 51 is provided with a cavity therein to allow the movable contactor 21 to move through. A concave-protruding portion 57 having a 1S plurality of concave and protruding portions is disposed at an inner circumferential surface of the insulating spacer 51 that defines the cavity, thereby increasing a surface insulating distance. Owing to the concave-protruding portion 57, an insulating distance needed is obtained, and each length of the insulating spacer 51 and the disconnection switch 100 can be decreased.

The driving source assembly 61 is disposed at an opposite end to the end where the stationary contactor 31 is positioned, and provides driving power to rotate the insulating shaft 41. As the insulating shaft 41 is rotated, the movable contactor 21 linearly moves to a position to contact the stationary contactor 31 or to a position to be separated from the stationary contactor 31. The driving source assembly 61 will be explained in more detail with reference to FIG. 12A to 12B.

The power transferring assembly 71 is inserted between the driving source assembly 61 and the base frame 11, thereby transmitting power generated from the driving source assembly 61 to the insulating shaft 41. Also, the power transferring assembly 71 insulates an opposite opening to an opening of the base frame 11 that is disposed towards the stationary contactor 31. The power transferring assembly 71 will be explained in more detail with reference to FIGS. 10A-10C and 11A-11B.

A enclosure enclosing the base frame 11, the stationary contactor 31, the insulating shaft 41, the insulating spacer 51, and the power transferring assembly 71 are all made of an insulating solid material. The internal components requiring the electrical connection are made of a metallic conductor, such as the load connection portion inside the base frame 11, the load side band contact 28 on the movable contactor 21, a fixed contact side band contact 27, a load side movable conductor 25, a fixed contact side movable conductor 23, and the fixed contact 33. The disconnection switch of the present invention may be formed of an insulating solid material such as an engineering plastic, polymer, and epoxy. In the present invention, the disconnection switch is formed of epoxy having high insulation and mechanical strength, but not limited to the epoxy. Since the thread portion 43 has to be formed on the outer surface of the insulating shaft 41, the insulating shaft 41 is preferably formed of a reinforced plastic having better plasticity and insulation than the epoxy.

The driving source assembly 61, the power transferring assembly 71, the base frame 11, the insulating spacer 51, and-the stationary contactor 31 are linearly and sequentially disposed, which make it possible for the movable contactor 21 to be linearly movable to a position to contact the fixed contact or to a position to be separated from the stationary contactor.

The above linear arrangement of the components may reduce the space occupied by the disconnection switch, compared to the arrangement of the parts of the disconnection switch according to the related art, as shown in FIG. 1A and 1B, where the main bus 201 and the contacts 220 and 230 are disposed in a crossing manner in upper and lower positions. The reduction in the size of the disconnection switch enables the reduction in the radius of a pipeline-structured container in which the disconnection switch is installed. Accordingly, an installation space and manufacturing cost for the switchgear are decreased.

FIG. 8 is a exploded perspective view showing a base frame, an insulating spacer, and a fixed contact of FIG. 6B.

Referring to FIG. 8, an insulating plate 91 for electrically insulating each component of the disconnection switch has an opened center thus not to serve as an obstacle when the movable contactor 21 moves. The insulating plate 91 is formed of an insulating solid material like other parts such as the base frame. The insulating plate 91 has to have higher flexibility and tightness than the other parts, though its mechanical strength is lower, thereby insulating each part from each other by preventing a current leakage to a gap therebetween. In the present invention, the insulating plate 91 is formed of a silicon resin. However, the material of the insulating plate 91 is not limited to the silicon resin.

When the power transferring assembly 71, the base frame 11, the insulating spacer 51, and the stationary contactor 31 are to be connected to each other, the insulating plate 91 is inserted therebetween. The insulating plate 91 has a curved shape so as to obtain a long surface insulating distance. Each contact surface of the power transferring assembly 71, the base frame 11, the insulating spacer 51, and the stationary contactor 31 to the insulating plate also is also formed to have a curved shape.

The insertion of the insulating plate 91 between the base frame 11 and the insulating spacer 51, for example, will be explained with reference to FIG. 8.

The insulating plate 91 has a ‘V’-shaped protruding or curved portion (a ‘V’-shaped concave portion when viewed in a rear direction) so as to increase a surface insulating distance. A ‘V’-shaped connection groove 18 is disposed at a contact surface 17 of the base frame 11, and a ring-shaped protrusion adhered to the concave portion of the insulating plate 91 is disposed at a corresponding contact surface of the insulating spacer 51 (refer to FIG. 7).

Accordingly, the insulating plate 91 inserted between the base frame 11 and the insulating spacer 51 completely blocks a gap therebetween, thereby preventing a current leakage through the gap. The base frame 11 and the insulting spacer 51 may be coupled to each other by welding, or by combining a nut hole provided on the contact surface 17 to a bolt hole 55 provided on a connecting plate 53.

Each configuration and operation of the movable contactor and the insulating shaft will be explained in more detail with reference to FIG. 9.

As shown in FIG. 9, the movable contactor 21 includes a fixed contact side movable conductor 23 and a load side movable conductor 25.

A thread portion is formed at an inner circumferential surface of the fixed contact side movable conductor 23, thereby being engaged with the thread portion 43 formed on the outer surface of the insulating shaft 41 inserted into the fixed contact side movable conductor 23. The fixed contact side band contact 27 is provided along an outer surface of one end of the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 which, when in the connected state, is connected to the fixed contact 33. A guide slot 24 is formed on an outer circumferential surface of the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 in a longitudinal direction.

The load side movable conductor 25 has an inner diameter larger than an outer diameter of the fixed contact side movable conductor 23, thereby allowing the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 to be inserted thereinto or drawn therefrom. The protruding connection portion 13 is electrically connected to the base frame conductor 19. The load side band contact 28 electrically connected to the base frame conductor 19 by contact is provided along an outer surface of one end of the load side movable conductor 25.

The load side band contact 28 is always electrically connected to the base frame conductor 19 irrespective of a position change of the movable contactor 21. That is, even if the load side movable conductor 25 is moved to a position for closing the circuit, the load side band contact 28 of the load side movable conductor 25 performs a sliding motion with a contact state to the base frame conductor 19.

A rotation preventing slot 29 is disposed on an outer circumferential surface of the load side movable conductor 25 in a longitudinal direction. A rotation preventing pin (not shown) protruding from an inner circumferential surface of the base frame conductor 19 (refer to FIG. 7) is inserted into the rotation preventing slot 29, thereby allowing the load side movable conductor 25 to be linearly-moved in a longitudinal direction with preventing a rotation. By the rotation preventing pin and the rotation preventing slot 29, the load side movable conductor 25 is allowed to be linearly-movable but is prevented from being rotated. Also, by the guide slot 24 formed at the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 and a guide pin 26 formed at the load side movable conductor 25, the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 is allowed to be linearly-movable, without being rotated.

As shown in FIG. 6B, in an opened state that the load side movable conductor 25 and the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 stay within the base frame 11, when the insulating shaft 41 is rotated in one direction, the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 is linearly-moved towards the fixed contact 33. When the guide pin 26 is engaged to an end wall (not shown) of the guide slot 24 adjacent to the load side movable conductor 25, the load side movable conductor 25 is pulled out by the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 with a maximum state (refer to FIG. 7). Then, as the insulating shaft 41 is rotated in one direction, the load side movable conductor 25 starts to linearly move towards the fixed contact 33 by the fixed contact side movable conductor 23. The load side movable conductor 25 continues to linearly move until the rotation preventing pin of the base frame conductor 19 meets an left end wall of the rotating preventing slot 29.

Herein, the fixed contact side band contact 27 fixed to the end of the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 comes in contact with the fixed contact 33, thereby forming a closed circuit (refer to FIG. 7).

In the connected state, when the insulating shaft 41 is rotated in another direction, the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 is linearly moved towards a direction apart from the fixed contact 33 thus to be inserted into the load side movable conductor 25. Then, if the guide pin 26 is stopped at the end 24′ of the fixed contact side band contact 27 of the guide slot 24 as the insulating shaft 41 is continuously rotated, the load side movable conductor 25 moves towards the base frame 11 by the guide pin 26. Accordingly, as shown in FIG. 6B, the load side movable conductor 25 is positioned in the base frame 11. Herein, the fixed contact side band contact 27 is separated from the fixed contact 33 with a sufficient space and surface insulating distance, thereby forming an opened circuit.

Differently from the double-structured configuration that the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 and the load side movable conductor 25 are separately disposed from each other, the fixed contact side movable conductor 23 and the load side movable conductor 25 may be implemented as a single body. That is, the movable contactor 21 is implemented as a hollow cylindrical body, and a band contact is fixed to outer circumferential surfaces of both ends. A thread portion corresponding to the thread portion 43 of the insulating shaft 41 is formed at an inner circumferential surface of the movable contactor 21. Also, the rotation preventing slot 29 for inserting the rotation preventing pin protruding from the base frame conductor 19 is formed at an outer circumferential surface of the movable contactor 21. Irrespective of the rotation of the insulating shaft 41, the movable contactor 21 performs only a linear reciprocation thus to allow to open and close the circuit. The one-structured movable contactor 21 has more simplified structure than the double-structured movable contactor 21. However, the one-structured movable contactor 21 requires the insulating spacer 51 to have a long length so as to obtain a suitable insulating distance, and causes an entire length of the disconnection switch 100 to be increased.

Accordingly, it is preferable to implement the double-structured movable contactor 21 rather than the one-structured movable contactor 21 in order to minimize the disconnection switch. Even though the double-structured movable contactor 21 was explained in the present invention, a multi-structured type movable contactor 21 having three or more structures can be implemented in order to more decrease the length of the disconnection switch 100.

For instance, when the movable contactor 21 is implemented as a three-structured one, a medium conductor (not shown) inserted into the load side movable conductor 25 is available as a cavity for inserting the fixed contact side movable conductor 23. Herein, a slot such as the guide slot 24 for inserting the guide pin 26, and a pin such as the guide pin 26 have to be formed at the medium conductor. A multi-structured movable contactor 21 having four or more structures for inserting a necessary number of medium conductors can be implemented.

A configuration and operation of the insulated power transferring assembly 71 will be explained in more detail with reference to FIGS. 10A-10C and to 11A-11B.

As shown, the power transferring assembly 71 has a structure in which one or more power transferring units 71′ are assembled to each other according to a rated voltage required of the switchgear within which the disconnection switch is installed.

The power transferring unit 71′ includes one or more rotators 75 disposed between the driving source assembly and the insulating shaft and rotated by power generated from the driving source assembly, for rotating the insulating shaft, a pair of insulating housings 73 formed of an insulating solid material, for rotatably supporting the rotator 75, and an insulating plate 91 disposed between the one pair of insulating housings 73. The insulating plate 91 has an opening 93 at a center thereof, and has a concave portion 92 so as to increase a surface insulating distance.

As the rotator 75 passes through the opening 93 of the insulating plate 91, both surfaces of the rotator 75 face the insulating housings 73. As shown in FIG. 8C, the rotator 75 has a circle shape. A protruding axis region is formed on one central side of the rotator 75, and an axis-receiving region is formed on anther central side of the rotator 75. The protruding axis region and the axis-receiving region are fitted to each other to assemble the two rotators.

A clearance is generated between the rotator 75 and the insulating housing 73, thereby rotating the rotator 75. In the present invention, approximately 1 mm of clearance is implemented. An O-ring 77 is disposed between the rotator 75 and the insulating housing 73 thus to maintain the clearance. Accordingly, the rotator 75 can be easily rotated between the one pair of insulating housings 73 in a state that a frictional force is minimized.

Since the rotator 75 has the protruding axis region and the axis-receiving region on each center of both surfaces thereof, a surface insulating distance thereof is increased. If the two rotators 75 are assembled by coupling the protruding axis region and the axis-receiving region to each other, the surface insulating distance is increased two times. The rotator 75 serves to transfer the dynamic power generated from the driving source assembly 61 to the insulating shaft 41, and serves to provide a sufficient surface insulating distance to secure an electrical insulation between the driving source assembly 61 and the base frame 11. According to experiments of the present invention, the switchgear with the rated voltage of 24 kV or 25.8 kV needs five rotators 75 to guarantee the insulation. Herein, six insulating housings 73 and five insulating plates 91 are necessary as well. That is, three power transferring units 71′ are assembled to one another (Refer to FIG. 10C). A protruding portion 74 and the concave portion 92 are disposed at both surfaces of the power transferring unit 71′. Accordingly, when the power transferring units 71′ are coupled to each other, a coupled volume is minimized and a surface insulating distance is sufficiently obtained. The protruding portion 74 and the concave portion 92 may be applied by having various protruding or concave degrees (the number of protruding and concave portions).

Accordingly, the present invention is not limited to the drawing.

The size of the power transferring assembly 71 can be reduced by the configuration of the power transferring unit 71′, thereby reducing the entire size of the disconnection switch.

A connection method may be variously implemented between the rotators 75, between the rotator 75 and a main rotation axis 63 of the driving source assembly 61, and between the rotator 75 and the insulating shaft 71. As one method, a protruding portion is formed at one side of the power transferring assembly 71, and a concave portion for inserting the protruding portion is formed at another side of the, power transferring assembly 71.

As shown in FIGS. 11A and 11B, a protruding axis region 76 of the rotator 75 and the insulating shaft 71 have a hexagonal section, respectively. Also, a connection hole 63′ having a hexagonal section is formed at an axis-receiving region (not shown, refer to FIG. 10C) of an opposite surface to a surface of the rotator 75 where the protruding axis region 76, and at the end of the main rotation axis 63.

A configuration and operation of the driving source assembly 61 of the disconnection switch 100 will be explained with reference to FIGS. 12A and 12B.

Referring to FIGS. 12A and 12B, three disconnection switches 100 are disposed in parallel in correspondence with a three-phases (R, S, T) of AC circuit The driving source assembly 61 includes three main rotation gears 64, two auxiliary gears 65, and a driving motor 68 for supplying power.

The main rotation gears 64 are respectively coupled to the main rotation axis 63 connected to the protruding axis region 76 of the rotator 75. The auxiliary gear 65 is engaged between the main rotation gears 64 so as to allow the three main rotation gears 64 to have the same rotation direction (refer to FIG. 12B).

A driving gear 67 rotates a connection gear 66 by receiving power from the driving motor 68, and the connection gear 66 is disposed on the same axis as one of the auxiliary gears 65.

The disconnection switch according to the present invention is covered with an insulating solid material except for the driving source assembly differently from the conventional art. It is possible to reduce the size of the disconnection switch by largely lengthening the surface insulating distance, even if a linear length of the insulating solid material is made short.

Since main components are assembled to each other, an entire assembly is simplified. Furthermore, since an insulating solid material is used instead of SF6 gas Which is the main culprit increasing the atmosphere temperature, an eco-friendly characteristic is enhanced. Since the SF6 gas is not used, a gas pressure need not be checked and an additional operation to gas supply to compensate for gas leakage, or the like is not required thus to save the maintenance cost.

When the disconnection switch is useful in adopting a double main buses, it has an excellent compatibility.

That is, in the conventional art, two disconnection switches are disposed in parallel with each other to use the double main buses. The two disconnection switches are connected to each other by a connection pipe in which gas is contained, thereby requiring an additional operation.

However, in the disconnection switch of the present invention, an additional component such as the connection pipe is not required. Furthermore, since an entire size of the disconnection switch is decreased, the disconnection switch may be disposed in upper and lower directions not in parallel.

Hereinafter, a switchgear using the disconnection switch according to the present invention will be explained.

FIG. 13A is a sectional view showing the main unit according to the present invention, and FIG. 13B is a circuit view showing the main unit according the present invention.

A main unit of the switchgear according to the present invention will be explained with reference to FIGS. 13A and 13B.

As shown in FIG. 13A, the main unit of the switchgear includes a first main bus connection portion 81-1 to which one power side first main bus is connected; a second main bus connection portion 81-2 to which another power side second main bus is connected; a first disconnection switch 100-1 electrically connected to the first main bus connection portion 81-1 or separated from the first main bus connection portion 81-1; a second disconnection switch 100-2 electrically connected to the second main bus connection portion 81-2 or separated from the second main bus connection portion 81-2; a first earth switch 110-1 for electrically connecting the first disconnection switch 100-1 and the second disconnection switch 100-2 to each other, and switching to a position to ground and to a position to be separated from the earth; a first circuit breaker 101-1 electrically connected to the second disconnect switch 100-2, for connecting or breaking a conducting path from the second disconnection switch 100-2; a driving mechanism 103-1 for driving the first circuit breaker 101-1 to a position to connect or break the conducting path; and a cable socket 104-1 electrically connected to the first circuit breaker 101-1, and having a socket portion electrically connected to a load side cable 105.

When the switchgear is used for a three-phase AC, parts of the switchgear are disposed in three parallel groups so as to correspond to a three-phase AC main bus and a three-phase AC load cable.

The conductive connecting part is implemented as a solid-insulated casing having no vacuum interrupter therein, but having a conductor portion therein. An outer surface of the conductor portion is molded by a solid-insulating material such as epoxy. If the conductor portion is formed of a conductor having the physically same size and shape as a vacuum interrupter, as to the solid-insulated casing, a mold for the solid-insulated casing of the conductor portion can also be used as the one for the solid-insulated casing of the circuit breaker, so it is possible that the conductive connecting part substituted for the circuit breaker can be produced as standardized part having the same physical shape and size as the circuit breaker.

Referring to FIG. 17A, although the twelfth main bus connection portion 81-12 and the fourteenth main bus connection portion 81-14 are shown as separated from each other for facilitation of depiction, actually they are always electrically connected to each other by a connecting conductor such as a bus bar (not shown).

Referring to FIG. 17A, a component connected to a lower portion of the sixth disconnection switch 110-6 is a conductive connecting part 101a not a circuit breaker. The conductive connecting part 101a is implemented as a solid-insulated casing having no vacuum interrupter therein, but having a conductor portion therein. An outer surface of the conductor portion is molded by a solid-insulating material such as epoxy. If the conductor portion is formed of a conductor having the physically same size and shape as a vacuum interrupter, a mold for the solid-insulated casing of the conductor portion can also be used as the one for the solid-insulated casing of the circuit breaker, so it is possible that the conductive connecting part substituted for the circuit breaker can be produced as standardized part having the same physical shape and size as the circuit breaker. Accordingly, the conductive connecting part 101a can be rapidly manufactured with a low cost, and the tie unit and the solid-insulated switchgear can be simply manufactured.

The connector 102 aforementioned in the main unit connected to a lower portion of the conductive connecting part 101a has no further connecting component at a lower side thereof. Accordingly, the connector 102 is covered by an insulating cover 11C for insulating the connector 102 from another component.

A conductor portion and a mold casing portion are connected between the conductive connecting part 101a and the sixth earth switch 110-6. The conductor portion includes a conductive concave connector (not shown), and a conductive protruding connector (not shown) connected to the conductive concave connector.

The more detail construction of ninth disconnection switch 100-9, the tenth disconnection switch 100-10, the fifth earth switch 110-5, and the sixth earth switch 110-6 can be referred to the above mentioned detail description about the disconnection switch 100 of the present invention with reference to FIGS. 3 to 10B, so the detail description will be omitted for avoiding repetition.

Since the fourth disconnection switch 101-4 and the fourth driving mechanism 103-4 are aforementioned in the main unit, detail explanation thereof will be omitted for avoiding repetition.

Referring to FIG. 16B, the right DS/ES represents the ninth disconnection switch 100-9 and the fifth earth switch 110-5 each connected to the second main bus, the left DS/ES represents the tenth disconnection switch 100-10 and the sixth earth switch 110-6 each connected to the first main bus, and the CB represents the fourth circuit breaker 101-4.

The tie unit that may be included in the solid-insulated switchgear according to the present invention serves to electrically connect the first main bus and the second main bus to each other. Operation for connecting or separating the first and second main buses to or from each other will be explained.

The movable contactors(refer to numeral 21 of FIG. 13A) inside the fifth earth switch 110-5 and the sixth earth switch 110-6 are separated from the fixed contacts(refer to numeral 33a of FIG. 13A) to a position of connecting a circuit. The ninth disconnection switch 100-9 is operated so that the movable contactor (refer to 21 of FIG., 13A) can contact the fixed contact (refer to numeral 33 of FIG. 13A), thereby being electrically connected to the second main bus. The fourth circuit breaker 101-4 is operated so that the movable contact contacts the fixed contact. Accordingly, the first main bus and the second main bus are electrically connected to each other.

On the other hand, if the movable contact of the ninth disconnection switch 100-9 or the tenth disconnection switch 100-10 is separated from the fixed contact, or if the movable contact of the fourth circuit breaker 101-4 is separated from the fixed contact, the first main bus and the second main bus are separated from each other.

Operation of the tie unit, that is, operating the disconnection switch to a position for conducting or breaking the circuit, operating the earth switch to a connecting or grounding position, and operating the circuit breaker to a position for breaking the circuit were aforementioned in the main unit, and thus its detail explanation will be omitted.

FIG. 18 is a perspective view showing the switchgear comprised of one main unit, one feeder unit, one measuring unit, two section units, and one tie unit according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 18, the reason why the measuring unit is as wide as the section unit or the tie unit is because the disconnection switch for the first main bus and the disconnection switch for the second main bus are not disposed in upper and lower direction shown as in FIG. 15A but are disposed horizontally that is, in right and left direction.

As aforementioned, the solid-insulated disconnection switch according to the present invention is formed of an insulating solid material. Accordingly, a surface insulating distance is increased even if a straight length of the insulating solid material is made short. Also, since main parts are produced as assemblies, the solid-insulated disconnection switch can be simplified and minimized. The solid-insulated disconnection switch can have high compatibility and reliability, and an eco-friendly characteristic is enhanced.

The solid-insulated switchgear using the solid-insulated disconnection switch can have an eco-friendly characteristic and a small size by solid-insulating each unit, a disconnection switches and earth switch constituting each unit.

In the solid-insulated switchgear according to the present invention, each unit and each part constituting each unit are standardized so as to be interchangeable to each other, thereby implementing a simple manufacture.

Furthermore, the solid-insulated switchgear can be manufactured according to an installation environment and a user's various demands, and can have an enhanced maintenance/repair characteristic.

As the present invention may be embodied in several forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof, it should also be understood that the above-described embodiments are not limited by any of the details of the foregoing description, unless otherwise specified, but rather should be construed broadly within its spirit and scope as defined in the appended claims, and therefore all changes and modifications that fall within the metes and bounds of the claims, or equivalents of such metes and bounds are therefore intended to be embraced by the appended claims.
