Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of electromechanical technology, and in particular relates to an insulating main contact structure and a contactor. Background Art
[0002] In the application of contactors, since the load switched by the main contacts is generally large, a large amount of contact ablation splashes will be formed under the ablation effect of the arc during the contact breaking process. These contact ablation splashes often adhere to the mounting base surface and the internal control surface around the static contact. This causes the insulation performance between the main contacts of the contactor to decrease in the middle and late stages of its life, reducing the service life of the contactor. Therefore, there is a need for an insulating main contact contact structure that can reduce the impact of contact ablation splashes on the insulation performance of the contactor, so as to increase the service life of the contactor.
[0003] The patent document with the announcement number CN116721896A discloses a high-voltage DC sealed contactor, including an outer shell, a static contact and a moving spring, wherein the static contact and the moving spring are arranged relative to each other, and the static contact is defined as being relatively arranged above the moving spring, and the moving spring is relatively arranged below the static contact, and further includes an insulating cover and an inner frame installed inside the outer shell, wherein the insulating cover is arranged above the inner frame, and a contact chamber is arranged below the inner frame, wherein the moving spring is arranged in the contact chamber, and the static contact passes through the insulating cover and the inner frame so that the lower static contact of the static contact is also arranged in the contact chamber, and a sealing ring is fixedly arranged on the surrounding side of the static contact and between the insulating cover and the inner frame. The contactor isolates the arc extinguishing space in the contact chamber from the metal parts outside the contact chamber, so as to prevent the evaporation generated by the moving spring during the life test or long-term use from splashing into the cavity outside the contact chamber. However, the metal parts are composed of multiple components, not a single component as a whole, which increases the installation time.
[0004] The patent document with the announcement number CN217061924U discloses a high-insulation performance auxiliary contact structure of a DC contactor, including: a shielding shell and an auxiliary static spring sheet, an auxiliary dynamic spring sheet and an auxiliary insulating push rod that can move up and down and are arranged on the shielding shell, the auxiliary insulating push rod can be pushed upward by the dynamic contact assembly in the DC contactor to drive the auxiliary dynamic spring sheet to contact and conduct with the auxiliary static spring sheet to trigger the signal; the auxiliary insulating push rod is provided with an annular concave-convex structure around the periphery to form a creepage path along its outer edge on the concave-convex structure. The high-insulation performance auxiliary contact structure of the DC contactor can increase the creepage distance between the main contact and the auxiliary dynamic spring sheet and the auxiliary static spring sheet, improve its insulation performance, and will not increase the product. The patent adopts a structural method of matching the concave-convex structure to increase the creepage distance, thereby achieving the improvement of the contact insulation performance, rather than setting a blocking structure to achieve the function of reducing the influence of contact erosion splashes on the insulation performance of the contactor.
