Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of circuit breakers, and in particular to a circuit breaker with a power connection and a communication connection structure. Background Art

[0002] Miniature circuit breakers are terminal equipment for power distribution lines. They are small in size and modular. They are mainly used to protect lines and are widely used in power distribution in homes, office buildings, communication base stations, and rural outdoor areas. At present, when traditional miniature circuit breakers, miniature automatic reclosing circuit breakers, and IoT miniature circuit breakers are installed in distribution boxes, they are usually installed in a row to connect power or communication between products. The power or communication connection methods on the market are to use a pin header to directly insert between products or to use a thimble to install on plastic parts. These connection methods are very inconvenient when installing and disassembling products. The method of connecting with a pin header is to insert the pin header into one of the products first during installation, and then place the other product side by side, and then insert the pin header. The installation method using a thimble is to remove the original plastic cover on the circuit breaker during installation, and then cover the plastic part with the thimble. The plastic part with the thimble must be removed during disassembly. These two methods are complicated to connect and inconvenient to install. Summary of the invention

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: a circuit breaker with a power connection and a communication connection structure, comprising a circuit breaker body, characterized in that a connection structure for connecting two adjacent circuit breakers is provided in the circuit breaker body, the connection structure comprises a female row unit and a pin row unit, the female row unit comprises a circuit board and a first female row and a second female row installed on the circuit board, the first female row and the second female row are arranged at both ends of the circuit board, the pin row unit is arranged between the two female rows, the pin row unit comprises a plurality of pins arranged side by side, the circuit breaker body is provided with a driving member for driving the pins to extend or retract the circuit breaker body, the circuit breaker body is provided with a plurality of first through holes for the pins to extend corresponding to the first female row position and a plurality of second through holes for the pins to extend corresponding to the second female row position.

[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, the first row of mother and the second row of mother are arranged on the circuit board, and the pin row is connected to the first row of mother so that the pin row and the first row of mother are conductive. When it is necessary to connect two adjacent circuit breakers, the driving member drives the pin row in one of the circuit breakers to extend out of the circuit breaker body through the first through hole, and then penetrate into the circuit breaker body through the second through hole on the other circuit breaker body, so that the pin row is connected to the second row of mother in the other circuit breaker body, thereby realizing the power connection and communication connection of the two adjacent circuit breakers. When the two adjacent circuit breakers need to be disconnected, the driving member will drive the pin row to retract from the second through hole on the other circuit breaker body. At this time, the two adjacent circuit breakers are disconnected, and when the driving member is driven again, the pin row will retract into the circuit breaker body. It is more convenient to connect in this way, so that the circuit breaker is easy to disassemble and install during installation.

When the driving member drives the pin row to slide, the pin row first extends from the third through hole, and then extends from the first through hole to extend out of the circuit breaker body. The pin row extending out of the circuit breaker body will penetrate into another circuit breaker body, and will pass through the fourth through hole in the other circuit breaker body to be connected to the second conductive sheet arranged in the fourth through hole, thereby realizing the power connection and communication connection of two adjacent circuit breakers. This connection structure has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and is easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0009] With the above further arrangement, the structure is simple and easy to install. The arrangement of the extension end can prevent the pin header from detaching. The fixed seat and the driving member cooperate to drive the pin header to slide in the third through hole, thereby driving the pin header to extend or retract into the circuit breaker body.

[0010] The present invention is further configured as follows: the driving member includes a driving plate, a driving block arranged on the outer side of the driving plate, and a connecting seat arranged on the inner side of the driving plate, the connecting seat includes a first connecting column and a second connecting column arranged side by side, and the two connecting columns are spaced apart to form a fixing area for fixing the fixing seat.

The first and second rows of female connectors 32 and 33 are arranged at both ends of the circuit board 31. The row of pins 41 is connected to the first row of female connectors 32 so that the row of pins 41 and the first row of female connectors 32 are conductive. When two adjacent circuit breakers need to be connected, the driving member 5 drives the row of pins 41 in the first circuit breaker body 1 to extend out of the circuit breaker body 1 through the first through hole 11, and then penetrate into the second through hole on the second circuit breaker body 1, so that the row of pins 41 is connected to the second row of female connectors 33 in the second circuit breaker body 1, thereby realizing the power connection and communication connection of the two adjacent circuit breakers. When the two adjacent circuit breakers need to be disconnected, the driving member 5 will drive the row of pins 41 to retract from the second through hole in the second circuit breaker body 1. At this time, the two adjacent circuit breakers are disconnected. When the driving member 5 is driven again, the row of pins 41 will retract into the first circuit breaker body 1. It is more convenient to connect in this way, so that the circuit breaker can be easily disassembled and installed during installation.

[0024] In this embodiment, the first female row 32 includes a plurality of first conductive sheets 321 and a first mounting seat 322 for mounting the first conductive sheets 321. The first mounting seat 322 is correspondingly provided with a plurality of third through holes 3221. One end of each first conductive sheet 321 extends into the corresponding third through hole 3221, and the other end is set against the circuit board 31. The second female row 33 includes a plurality of second conductive sheets 331 and a second mounting seat 332 for mounting the second conductive sheets 331. The second mounting seat 332 is correspondingly provided with a plurality of fourth through holes 3321. One end of each second conductive sheet 331 extends into the corresponding fourth through hole 3321, and the other end is set against the circuit board 31. Each fourth through hole 3321 is coaxially arranged with the second through hole. One end of each row of pins 41 is linked with the driving member 5 for coupling. The first conductive sheet 321 is connected to the second conductive sheet 321, and the other end is in contact with the first conductive sheet 321 and is slidably arranged in the third through hole 3221. Each third through hole 3221 is coaxially arranged with the first through hole 11. The row pin 41 is in contact with the first conductive sheet 321 so that the row pin 41 is connected with the first conductive sheet 321. When the driving member 5 drives the row pin 41 to slide, the row pin 41 first extends from the third through hole 3221, and then extends from the first through hole 11 to extend out of the circuit breaker body 1. The row pin 41 extending out of the circuit breaker body 1 will pass through the second through hole into another circuit breaker body 1, and will pass through the fourth through hole 3321 in the other circuit breaker body 1, and be connected with the second conductive sheet 331 arranged in the fourth through hole 3321, so as to realize the power connection and communication connection of the two adjacent circuit breakers. This connection structure is simple in structure, easy to operate, and easy to disassemble and assemble.

[0025] In this embodiment, the pin row unit 4 also includes a fixed seat 42, and a fifth through hole 421 is provided on the fixed seat 42. One end of the pin row 41 passes through the fifth through hole 421 and extends into the third through hole 3221. The other end of the pin row 41 extends toward the driving member 5 to form an extended end 411, and the fixed seat 42 is linked with the driving member 5. The connection structure is simple and easy to install. The setting of the extended end 411 can prevent the pin row 41 from being separated from the fixed seat 42. The fixed seat 42 is linked with the driving member 5 to facilitate the pin row 41 to be slidably set in the third through hole 3221, thereby driving the pin row 41 to extend or retract the circuit breaker body 1. Furthermore, in order to facilitate the sliding of the drive pin 41, the drive member 5 includes a drive plate 51, a drive block 52 arranged on the outer side of the drive plate 51, and a connecting seat 53 arranged on the inner side of the drive plate 52. The connecting seat 53 includes a first connecting column 531 and a second connecting column 532 arranged side by side. The two connecting columns are spaced apart to form a fixing area 54 for fixing the fixing seat 42. During installation, the fixing seat 42 will be stuck in the fixing area 54, and the other end of the pin 41 will pass between two adjacent first connecting columns 531, so that it is convenient to drive the pin 41 to extend or retract the circuit breaker body 1. This connection is more convenient, the structure is simpler, and the installation is convenient. Of course, other connection methods can also be used to connect the driving member 5 and the needle unit 4. In this connection method, the needle unit 4 includes a needle 41, which is arranged in a long strip shape. A slot is arranged on the driving plate 51, and a card block is correspondingly arranged on both sides of the end of the needle 41 away from the third through hole 3221. The card block is arranged in the corresponding card slot and can also realize the connection between the needle 41 and the driving plate 51, so that the needle 41 can be driven to slide out or retract into the shell 1. Of course, other methods can also be used, not limited to these two methods, as long as the driving member 5 can drive the needle 41 to slide.
