The isolating operating shaft 2 and the grounding operating shaft 3 are respectively connected with the coupling 8 through a first crank-link mechanism 6 and a second crank-link mechanism 7. The interlocking push plate 9 is used to trigger the first interlocking mechanism 16 to block the isolating operation hole or trigger the second interlocking mechanism 17 to block the grounding operation hole. The isolating operation hole is used to insert an operation handle and rotate the isolating operating shaft 2 through the operation handle, and the grounding operation hole is used to insert an operation handle and rotate the grounding operating shaft 3 through the operation handle. Compared with the existing operating mechanism, the disconnector and the earthing switch in this embodiment have their own operation holes and the output shaft is omitted, which is beneficial to simplifying the structure and realizing the miniaturization of the spring operating mechanism.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 , in this embodiment, the mechanism bent plate 1 is a sheet metal part with a U-shaped cross section. Mechanism covers 10 are arranged on both sides of the U-shaped opening of the sheet metal. The isolating operating shaft 2 and the grounding operating shaft 3 are respectively arranged at the upper part and the lower part of the mechanism bent plate 1. Rotation limiting pins 11 are arranged on both the isolating operating shaft 2 and the grounding operating shaft 3. Limiting blocks 12 matching with the rotation limiting pins 11 are arranged on the mechanism bent plate 1 and in the rotation directions of the isolating operating shaft 2 and the grounding operating shaft 3.

[0022] Please refer to Figure 2, the separating and combining spring assembly 4 includes a guiding assembly 41 and a separating and combining spring 42. The guiding assembly 41 includes a guiding rod and a guiding sleeve. The separating and combining spring 42 is sleeved on the outer wall of the guiding assembly 41. Spring push pins 43 are arranged at both ends of the guiding assembly 41. A spring push plate 44 is hinged to the spring push pin 43. The guiding assembly 41 is fixed to the isolating operating shaft 2 and the grounding operating shaft 3 respectively through the spring push plate 44.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 3 , the first crank-link mechanism 6 includes an isolating crank arm plate 61 fixed to the end of the isolating operating shaft 2 away from the isolating operating hole and an isolating link 62. One end of the isolating link 62 is provided with a first arc-shaped chute, and the other end is connected to the coupling 8. The isolating crank arm plate 61 is connected to the first arc-shaped chute through a connecting pin.

[0024] The second crank-link mechanism 7 includes a grounding crank arm plate 71 fixed to the end of the grounding operating shaft 3 away from the grounding operating hole and a grounding link 72. One end of the grounding link 72 is provided with a second arc-shaped chute, and the other end is connected to the coupling 8. The grounding crank arm plate 71 is connected to the second arc-shaped chute through a connecting pin.

[0025] The coupling 8 includes a stainless steel shaft 81 and a triangular dial plate 82 welded together. The upper corner of the triangular dial plate 82 is hinged to the isolating link 62, and the lower corner of the triangular dial plate 82 is hinged to the grounding link 72. A copper sleeve is sleeved on the outer wall of the stainless steel shaft 81. A Y-shaped sealing ring is arranged between the copper sleeve and the stainless steel shaft 81. One end of the stainless steel shaft 81 is connected to the main shaft of the three-position switch through a first hexagonal hole 83, and the other end is connected to the first interlocking rod 5 through a second hexagonal hole.

[0026] A microswitch pressing block 13 is arranged on the first interlocking rod 5. A microswitch supporting plate 14 is arranged on the mechanism bending plate 1. Three microswitches 15 distributed around the microswitch pressing block 13 are arranged on the microswitch supporting plate 14. When the spring operating mechanism switches among the three positions of connection, isolation and grounding, the first interlocking rod 5 drives the microswitch pressing block 13 to trigger the three microswitches 15 respectively. The three microswitches 15 send out signals respectively to cut off the power supply of the motor, realizing electrical interlocking.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1Or 4, the interlocking push plate 9 is fixed to one end of the first interlocking rod 5 away from the coupling 8. The first interlocking mechanism 16 and the second interlocking mechanism 17 are respectively opposite to the upper and lower parts of the interlocking push plate 9, and the first interlocking mechanism 16 and the second interlocking mechanism 17 have the same structure. The first interlocking mechanism 16 includes an interlocking plate 161 and an interlocking support plate 162. Two guide pins 163 are arranged on the interlocking support plate 162. A chute matching the guide pins 163 is arranged on the interlocking plate 161. The interlocking plate 161 is installed on the interlocking support plate 162, and a return spring 164 is connected between the interlocking plate 161 and the interlocking support plate 162. The interlocking support plate 162 is installed on the mechanism bent plate 1.

[0028] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 , when the three-position switch needs to perform an isolating closing operation, insert the operating handle into the isolating operation hole. Drive the isolating operation shaft 2 to rotate counterclockwise through the operating handle. On the one hand, the isolating operation shaft 2 drives the coupling 8 to rotate synchronously counterclockwise through the first crank-link mechanism 6. On the other hand, it drives the grounding operation shaft 3 to rotate clockwise through the opening and closing spring assembly 4, so as to realize the isolating closing operation. When rotating the isolating operation shaft 2, the coupling 8 drives the interlocking push plate 9 to rotate counterclockwise through the first interlocking rod 5. The interlocking push plate 9 pushes the interlocking plate of the second interlocking mechanism 17 to block the grounding operation hole. At this time, the operating handle cannot be inserted into the grounding operation hole, which can avoid misoperation. At this time, perform an isolating opening by rotating the isolating operation shaft 2 in the reverse direction. The interlocking push plate 9 resets, and the interlocking plate of the second interlocking mechanism 17 resets under the pulling force of the return spring. At this time, the operating handle can be inserted into the grounding operation hole to perform a grounding closing operation.

[0030] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. As long as it achieves the technical effects of the present invention by the same means, it should fall within the protection scope of the present invention. Within the protection scope of the present invention, various modifications and changes can be made to its technical solutions and / or implementation manners.
