Patent ID: 6865072

Claim:
A metal-enclosed switchgear comprising: a vacuum-valve breaker; an insulator tube; a disconnector; a movable electrode rod; a stationary electrode rod; a bus-side conductor; and a metallic enclosure accommodating said vacuum-valve breaker, said insulator tube, and said disconnector, wherein said insulator tube is fixed at a first end, in an axial direction, to said metallic enclosure, said insulator tube having, near a second end, in the axial direction, a bus line fixing portion for supporting said bus-side conductor in an insulated fashion, said vacuum-valve breaker is fixed inside said insulator tube, said vacuum-valve breaker having at first and second ends in the axial direction, said movable electrode rod and said stationary electrode rod, respectively, and said disconnector includes: a blade support member electrically connected to said movable electrode rod by a connecting conductor and fixed to a peripheral part of said insulator tube; a bus line terminal fixed and connected to said bus-side conductor; and a blade swingably attached to said blade support member at a first end such that a second end of said blade can be brought into contact with and separated from said bus line terminal, whereby said blade is part of a disconnecting device.
