  • the second portion 512 is free to rotate independently of the first portion 511 , and this allows the fourth electric conductor 12 to pass over the second portion 512 of the first actuating member 51 and activate the movement of a second actuating member 52 (described below) in order to return the disconnecting apparatus 10 from the open configuration (see figure 6E) to the closed configuration (see figure 6I).
  • the second member 52 is moved to simultaneously move also the shaped member 6 to allow the pin 8 to traverse the first section 71 of the path 7, i.e. to allow the pin 8 to be released from the second abutment wall 74 of the second section 72 of the path 7.
  • the handling means 5 comprise a second actuating member 52 preferably mechanically connected to the support structure 1 and/or the shaped member 6 and is configured to move the shaped member 6 along the axis Y substantially transverse to the axis X, to associate the pin 8 with one between the first wall 73 and the second abutment wall 74 of the sliding path 7.
  • the second organ 52 is preferably configured to allow the pin 8 to free itself from the abutment wall 74 and to return the second movable conductor 4 to its abutment position against the first fixed conductor 3.
  • the second organ 52 is configured to allow the pin 8 to free itself from the second abutment wall 74, being able to slide along the axis X in the first section 71 of the sliding path 7.
  • the first elastic means can be defined by the second actuating member 52, in particular made of an elastic material, such as spring steel, or a plastic material, such as a polymer, in particular a thermosetting or thermoplastic polymer.
  • the second actuating member 52 comprises a third end 521 preferably rotatably coupled to the support structure 1 , and a fourth end 522 shaped to be intercepted by the fourth movable conductor 12 during its movement from the open configuration to the closed configuration.
  • the rotation of the fourth movable conductor 12 is such as to actuate the rotation of the second actuating member 52.
  • the fourth conductor 12 actuates a substantially rectilinear movement of the shaped member 6 parallel to the axis Y, such that the pin 8 is disengaged from the second abutment wall 74.
  • the movement of the shaped member 6 parallel to the axis Y is performed in such a way as to bring the pin 8 at the first section 71 of the path 7 to allow the stroke of the pin 8 and thus the closure of the second movable conductor 4 in contact with the first fixed conductor 3.
  • the second actuating member 52 is preferably made of an insulating material, e.g. a polymer, in particular a thermosetting or thermoplastic polymer.
  • the second member 52 may also be made of metal material suitably electrically insulated from the supporting structure 1.
  • the disconnecting apparatus is particularly advantageous in that: is compact and space-saving; is secure and functionally completely reliable, as it can unambiguously indicate the state it is in (open or closed); is cost-effective or at least economically competitive and competitive with commercially available disconnecting apparatuses; is simple to realize; is mechanically rigid and resistant; is industrially feasible with traditional manufacturing systems and known construction techniques; is directly applicable to electric circuits or electric networks without the need for costly and complex preparation and/or adaptation; presents an alternative and/or improved configuration, both in constructional and functional terms, compared to known traditional solutions;
