Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electrical equipment - medium and low voltage switch technology, and mainly relates to an assembly tooling for a circuit breaker vacuum interrupter chamber. Background Technology
[0002] Vacuum circuit breakers are mainstream products in the field of high-voltage switchgear for power distribution systems. The arc-extinguishing chamber is one of the core components of a vacuum circuit breaker. The installation of the arc-extinguishing chamber along with the upper and lower supports is a crucial step in the assembly process of a vacuum circuit breaker. The proper installation of the arc-extinguishing chamber directly affects the overall performance stability of the circuit breaker. After installation, the arc-extinguishing chamber must meet the requirements that the lower support can move vertically in a plane parallel to the plane of the upper support, and that the flexible connection is not affected by external torsional forces during the vertical movement of the lower support.
[0003] The traditional installation method does not use installation clamps. The upper bracket is assembled with the arc-extinguishing chamber, the lower bracket is inserted into the upper part of the arc-extinguishing chamber, and the conductive clamp is fastened to the end of the arc-extinguishing chamber. Then, the flexible connection is fastened to the lower bracket by the installer's vision and experience.
[0004] Traditional installation methods do not use installation clamps. The upper bracket is assembled with the arc-extinguishing chamber, the lower bracket is inserted into the upper part of the arc-extinguishing chamber, and the conductive clamp is fastened to the end of the arc-extinguishing chamber. Then, the flexible connection is tightened to the lower bracket by the installer's vision and experience. Because the arc-extinguishing chamber and the upper and lower brackets are not positioned with clamps during installation, this installation method makes it difficult to ensure the parallelism of the plane on which the upper and lower brackets are located after the arc-extinguishing chamber is installed, and the free movement of the lower bracket under the influence of external torsional forces on the flexible connection. As a result, the overall performance stability of the circuit breaker is not high.
[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a tooling for assembling the vacuum interrupter of a circuit breaker to solve the problems of cumbersome steps and inconvenient positioning in traditional installation methods. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the problems in the prior art, this utility model provides an assembly fixture for a circuit breaker vacuum interrupter.

[0029] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0030] like Figs. 1-7As shown, a circuit breaker vacuum interrupter assembly fixture includes a base plate 1 and a positioning bracket 2 disposed on the base plate 1. The positioning bracket 2 is provided with a flexible connection clamping assembly and an interrupter clamping assembly.
[0031] The surface of the base plate 1 is provided with a positioning groove for positioning and limiting the arc-extinguishing chamber, ensuring the relative position and installation accuracy; the positioning bracket 2 is vertically fixed on one side of the base plate 1, and its cross-section is U-shaped, with the opening of the U-shape facing the positioning groove of the base plate 1. The bottom of the positioning bracket 2 is provided with a bracket base 2-1, and the positioning bracket 2 is fixed to the base plate 1 by screws. The top of the positioning bracket 2 is provided with a bracket top plate 2-2, and the bracket top plate 2-2 is provided with a threaded hole for connecting with the flexible connection clamping assembly.
[0032] The flexible connection clamping assembly is adjustablely disposed on the upper side of the positioning bracket 2, and includes a positioning plate 3 and a positioning rod 4. The positioning plate 3 and the positioning rod 4 are movably connected, and the positioning rod 4 is rotatably disposed on the top of the positioning bracket 2.
[0033] Specifically, the positioning plate 3 includes a fixing plate 3-1 and a claw 3-2. The fixing plate 3-1 is provided with a fixing plate positioning hole for connecting and fixing with the positioning rod 4. The opening of the claw 3-2 corresponds to the direction of the positioning groove of the base plate 1 and is used to fix the flexible connection 11. A bearing is provided on the lower side of the fixing plate positioning hole.
[0034] The positioning rod 4 has a hexagonal stern head at the top and an external thread at the bottom. The positioning rod 4 passes through the positioning hole of the fixing plate and is threaded to the top plate 2-2 of the bracket. The positioning rod 4 is screwed in and out of the positioning bracket 2 to control the height of the positioning plate 3. Washers and retaining rings are set between the hexagonal stern head and the positioning plate 3. The positioning rod 4 and the positioning plate 3 are fixed by a combination of bearings, washers, and retaining rings. The purpose of setting bearings is to allow the positioning plate 3 and the positioning rod 4 to maintain a direct connection while allowing relative rotation. Compared with the threaded connection, its rotation angle is more free and flexible. The purpose is to ensure that the opening angle of the pawl 3-2 remains unchanged when the two move relative to each other. The hexagonal stern head is convenient for quickly adjusting the height of the positioning plate with an electric gun or finely adjusting the height of the positioning plate with an open-end wrench.
[0035] To better maintain the opening direction of the claw 3-2, retaining rods 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the positioning bracket 2. The upper end of the retaining rod 5 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 3-1, and the lower end of the retaining rod 5 is provided with a reinforcing block. The reinforcing block is used to fill the gap between the retaining rod 5 and the side wall of the positioning bracket 2, ensuring that the retaining rod 5 can always abut against the side wall of the positioning bracket 2 during the adjustment of the positioning rod 4. The retaining rods 5 on both sides maintain the opening angle of the claw 3-2 of the positioning plate 3 unchanged, so that the soft connection clamping assembly can only move up and down in the vertical direction. If it is necessary to adjust the opening angle of the claw 3-2, the retaining rods 5 on both sides can be removed, so that the positioning plate 3 can rotate left and right to change the angle.
[0036] The arc-extinguishing chamber clamping assembly is located in the middle section of the positioning bracket 2, and includes a clamping rod mounting base 6, a clamping rod 7, and a tension spring 8. The clamping rod mounting base 6 is fixedly connected to the positioning bracket 2, the clamping rod 7 is located on both sides of the clamping rod mounting base 6, and the tension spring 8 is located between the clamping rod 7 and the clamping rod mounting base 6 to provide tension when the clamping rod 7 clamps the arc-extinguishing chamber, so as to maintain the clamping state.
[0037] Specifically, the clamp rod mounting base 6 is also U-shaped and is located on the outer side of the middle section of the positioning bracket 2, adapting to the U-shape of the positioning bracket 2. The side wall of the clamp rod mounting base 6 is provided with a support lug 6-1, and the rear end of the corresponding clamp rod 7 is provided with a clamp rod lug 7-1. The two are movably connected by a fixing pin 9. The U-shaped opening of the clamp rod mounting base 6 is symmetrically provided with clamp rod supports 6-2 extending outward, serving as the minimum limit for the clamping opening of the two clamp rods 7. The tension spring 8 is located on the rear side of the clamp rod support 6-2, with one end fixed to the side wall of the clamp rod mounting base 6 and the other end fixed to the clamp rod 7, providing tension for the clamp rod 7. The top end of the clamp rod 7 is provided with a soft pad 7-2, which can be made of rubber, to ensure that the arc-extinguishing chamber is not damaged during clamping.
[0038] The arc-extinguishing chamber clamping assembly can be manually pressed at the rear end of the clamping rod 7 to adjust the opening size of the clamping rod 7 to match the size of the arc-extinguishing chamber for different models of vacuum arc-extinguishing chambers.
[0039] The assembly process of the circuit breaker vacuum interrupter assembly fixture described in this embodiment is as follows:
[0040] First, place the static conductive end of the arc-extinguishing chamber 10 on the groove of the base plate 1. Manually press the rear end of the clamping rod 7 to adjust the opening of the clamping rod 7 so that it clamps the arc-extinguishing chamber 10. Then, place the flexible connection 11 on the claw 3-2 of the positioning plate 3. Adjust the height of the positioning plate 3 by rotating the positioning rod 4 so that the flexible connection 11 contacts the moving conductive end of the arc-extinguishing chamber 10. Then, pass the insulating pull rod 12 through the flexible connection 11 from above and screw it into the arc-extinguishing chamber 10. First, tighten it manually. After the screwing depth is close to meeting the assembly height requirements, use one wrench to hold the clamping position of the arc-extinguishing chamber and another torque wrench to hold the clamping position of the insulating pull rod 12 and tighten it until the torque wrench reaches the tightening torque. This completes the assembly of the circuit breaker vacuum arc-extinguishing chamber.
[0041] The positioning plate 3 positions and limits the flexible connection. The spacing between the claws 3-2 does not exceed the width of the flexible connection, ensuring that the flexible connection will not rotate during the assembly process. The positioning height is controlled at the moving conductive end of the arc-extinguishing chamber. At the same time, the height of the flexible connection clamping assembly is adjustable, so that the overall positioning height of the tooling meets the requirements of the arc-extinguishing chamber assembly. The positioning height of the flexible connection is just in contact with the moving conductive end of the arc-extinguishing chamber, and it is convenient to make fine adjustments to the assembly height of the arc-extinguishing chamber.
[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. However, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
