Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for efficiently manufacturing a body structure block by welding long extruded hollow shape members. A plurality of support beds (10) are arranged along the longitudinal direction of the long works. Each support bed (10) is composed of six supporting units (30) capable of being moved along the width direction (Y) of the body structure block, and clamp units (40,50) disposed at left and right ends thereof. The supporting units (30) support the butted portions (joints) of seven works. Both ends of the work are clamped by the clamp units (40,50). The support units (30) and the clamp units (40,50) are equipped with expansion devices (34), through which the heights for supporting the works mounted thereon are adjusted. Adjacent supporting units (30) are coupled via coupling units (60), and the inclination angle of each supporting unit (30) can be controlled by the expansion of the coupling units (60). Thus, the heights and inclination angles of supporting units (30) supporting the works can be controlled, facilitating manufacture of the body structure block. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A high-voltage loadbreak switch operates submersed in a dielectric fluid and may be configured to switch one or more phases of power using one or more phase switches. Each phase switch may include first and second stationary contacts. The first stationary contact may be connected to a phase of a high-voltage power source. Each phase switch also may include a non-stationary contact. The non-stationary contact may be placed in a first position to electrically couple the first stationary contact to the second stationary contact, and in a second position to decouple the first stationary contact and the second stationary contact. The region of motion of the first non-stationary contact between the first position and the second position includes an arcing region. The high-voltage loadbreak switch uses a fluid circulation mechanism to improve circulation of the dielectric fluid through the arcing region. To suppress arcing between different phases, a non-conductive baffle may separate different phase switches when more than one phase switch is used. A non-conductive baffle also may separate a phase from ground to prevent phase-to-ground arcing.
