The utility model discloses an isolating switch operating mechanism and an isolating switch, comprising an operating frame, an operating shaft, a motor, a transmission gear
assembly and a switching fluted disc, the switching fluted disc is in linkage connection with the transmission gear
assembly, the operating shaft is connected with a shaft
coupling turntable, the switching fluted disc is provided with at least one toggle column, and the operating shaft is connected with the shaft
coupling turntable. The shifting column is located on the side, close to the
coupling rotary disc, of the switching fluted disc, a transmission groove is formed in the coupling rotary disc, and the shifting column and the transmission groove are located on the same acting plane. When the shifting column rotates along with the switching fluted disc, the shifting column enters the transmission groove and leaves the transmission groove, and when the shifting column enters the transmission groove and acts on the inner wall of the transmission groove, the shaft coupling
rotating disc is driven to rotate so as to achieve electric switching-off and electric switching-on of the operation shaft. A plane meshing structure of the shifting column and the transmission groove is adopted to replace a traditional complex
clutch assembly, the number of parts is obviously reduced, the
mechanical failure rate is obviously reduced, meanwhile, multi-part transmission accumulative errors are eliminated, and the transmission stability is effectively improved.
