ABSTRACT:
In a telescopic switch between a step-up transformer and a generator, axially spaced sets of three alignment mechanisms each are disposed in a housing. Each mechanism includes puck secured to an insulator secured in turn to a fixed conductor, an inner ring and a base plate. The puck is threaded into an opening through the inner ring and has an axis of rotation relative to the inner ring opening offset from the axis of rotation of the inner ring relative to the base plate. By screw threading the puck relative to the inner ring, radial adjustment of an attached conductor is provided. By rotating the inner ring, the eccentrically mounted puck carrying the insulator and fixed conductor is rotated about the geometric axis of the opening in which the inner ring rotates for displacing the fixed conductor laterally.
