AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing thermal trip current-limiting circuit breakers are prone to accidental tripping under external vibration, affecting the normal operation of the equipment.

Method used

A current-limiting circuit breaker was designed, which includes a thermal trip rod and a sliding rail structure to ensure that the thermal trip rod does not contact the tripping mechanism when the circuit breaker vibrates. The movement of the thermal trip rod is restricted by the sliding rail, and the tripping mechanism is triggered only when the bimetallic strip is thermally deformed.

Benefits of technology

This effectively avoids the circuit breaker from tripping accidentally due to vibration, improves its seismic performance, and ensures that the circuit breaker operates normally in a vibrating environment.
