Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of electrical equipment, and in particular relates to an automatic manual switching structure of a dual power conversion switch. Background Art
[0002] Dual power transfer switch is a widely used terminal appliance. It mainly uses the controller on it to drive the electric operating mechanism to control the action of the switch to connect or disconnect the normal and backup power supplies, thereby ensuring the safety of the power system and the continuity of production. Transfer switch generally has three execution states: normal power closing, backup power closing and double disconnection. In the double disconnection state, the transfer switch cuts off both power supplies at the same time to deal with equipment maintenance or other situations where the power supply needs to be disconnected. In this state, the padlock device of the transfer switch needs to be used to lock the transfer switch in the double disconnection state to prevent other personnel from misoperating due to maintenance, thereby avoiding economic and personnel losses and playing a role in protecting electricity safety.
[0003] At the user's site, when the transfer switch is in manual state, it is necessary to use the operating handle to operate it manually. After use, it will be returned to its original position and cannot be easily taken out. Otherwise, the handle will fall off due to vibration during the switch conversion process, and there is a risk of falling onto the wiring copper busbar and causing a short circuit. Therefore, it is extremely important to place the handle firmly and reliably. Summary of the invention
