Front face for electrical protective equipment and electrical protective device

Abstract

Front face for an electrical protective device and electrical protective device The invention relates to a front face (2) for an electrical protective device comprising: a front wall (3), an access door (5) mounted rotatably relative to said front wall (3) by a hinge sub-assembly (6) comprising a first pivot joint to allow a first rotational movement about a first axis of rotation (A1), and a second pivot joint to allow a second rotational movement of the access door (5) relative to the front wall (3) about a second axis of rotation (A2), the first axis of rotation (A1) and the second axis of rotation (A2) are parallel to each other and separated by a distance (d) in a plane (P) characterized in that said hinge sub-assembly (6) comprises a movable link portion (9), the first pivot joint connects the front wall (3) and the movable link portion (9),The second pivot joint connects the movable link portion (9) and the access door (5). The front wall (3) includes a receiving housing (10) to receive at least part of the movable link portion (9). In the closed position (PF) of the access door (5), the plane (P) is parallel to an external face (3') of the front wall (3) and is contained within the receiving housing (10). In the maximum open position of the access door (5), the plane (P) is perpendicular to the external face (3') of the front wall (3). Figure to be published with the abbreviation: Fig. 10.
