TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to a circuit breaker, in particular to a leakage protection actuator and a spliced circuit breaker. BACKGROUND
[0002] The circuit breaker is generally composed of a contact system, an arc extinguishing system, an actuator and a tripping device. When leakage or short circuit occurs in an external line, the tripping device acts to push the tripping part in the actuator, and through the cooperation of the actuator, the moving and static contacts are separated from each other, so that the circuit breaker is tripped. The tripping device commonly used in the circuit breaker is divided into an electronic tripping device and an electromagnetic tripping device. The electronic tripping device is mainly used for leakage protection of the circuit breaker, while the electromagnetic tripping device can only be used for short circuit protection of the circuit breaker. However, the electronic tripping device needs to be used in cooperation with an auxiliary power supply and a line board, thus increasing the overall size of the leakage protection mechanism and reducing the applicability of the circuit breaker.
[0003] The reason why the electromagnetic tripping device cannot be used as the leakage protection mechanism of the circuit breaker mainly consists of two aspects. On the one hand, the tripping force generated by the electromagnetic tripping device under the action of the leakage current is small, so it is difficult to directly push the external actuator to act, thus failing to realize stable disconnection of the circuit breaker. On the other hand, the electromagnetic tripping device lacks a reset spring compared with the electronic tripping device, so that the electromagnetic tripping device needs to be reset externally after being pushed out, which is difficult to reset, so it cannot be directly used for leakage protection of the circuit breaker. Therefore, a leakage protection mechanism suitable for the electromagnetic tripping device is needed, so as to effectively improve the applicability of the circuit breaker and reduce the production cost.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] The present application will be further described below in combination with the drawings and examples, but it is not taken as the basis for limiting the present application.
[0029] Example. The leakage protection actuator is constituted as shown in Figure 1 including a resetting piece 8, a lock buckle 7, a jump buckle 5 and an executing piece 6 connected in sequence, the jump buckle 5 is connected with a handle 3 in the middle, the handle 3 is externally connected with a resetting piece spring 13, and one side of the resetting piece spring 13 is in close contact with the resetting piece 8.

[0031] The handle spring 9 is arranged between the handle 3 and the base 2, and provides the handle 3 with a pre-tightening force in the counterclockwise direction (the rotating direction in the embodiment, and the view direction is used as the reference direction), the execution member spring 10 is arranged between the execution member 6 and the base 2, and provides the execution member 6 with a pre-tightening force in the clockwise direction, and the lock catch spring 11 is arranged between the lock catch 7 and the base 2, and provides the lock catch 7 with a pre-tightening force in the clockwise direction. Figure 4
[0032] The linkage rod 601 is arranged on the execution member 6 and is eccentric to the mounting shaft of the execution member 6, and the jump catch 5 is rotatably connected to the linkage rod 601 at one end, and the jump catch spring 12 which cooperates with the base 2 is arranged on the jump catch 5.
[0033] The handle 3 is connected to the jump catch 5 through the connecting rod 4, and the connecting rod 4 and the jump catch 5 are left with a gap at the connection position, and the connection position of the connecting rod 4 and the jump catch 5 is located on the side away from the rotating shaft center of the execution member 6.
[0034] The push plate 801 is arranged on the reset member 8, and the transmission plate 701 is arranged on the lock catch 7, and the push plate 801 and the transmission plate 701 are mutually attached.
[0035] The pressing block 301 which cooperates with the reset member spring 13 is arranged on the handle 3.
[0036] The step groove 702 is arranged on one side of the lock catch 7, and the buckling block 501 is arranged on the end of the jump catch 5 away from the execution member 6, and the buckling block 501 and the step groove 702 are mutually buckled.
[0037] The connecting shaft which is rotatably connected to the base 2 is arranged in the middle of the lock catch 7, and the end of the connecting shaft extends to the outside through the reset member 8, and the limiting groove 802 which cooperates with the connecting shaft is arranged on the reset member 8.
[0038] The arc-shaped hole which cooperates with the tripping member is arranged on one side of the base 2, and the tripping member extends to the side of the execution member 6 through the arc-shaped hole.
[0039] The spliced circuit breaker using the leakage protection actuator includes a cover 14, a bus 15 is provided inside the cover 14, a multi-pole circuit breaker 16 is connected to one side of the bus 15, and a magnetic ring assembly 1 and a leakage protection actuator are connected to each other on the other side of the bus 15. The ejection end of the magnetic ring assembly 1 is located at the bottom upper end of the reset member 8. The magnetic ring assembly 1 can use a conventional electronic release or an electromagnetic release; the tripping part of the multi-pole circuit breaker 16 extends into the leakage protection actuator, and the multi-pole circuit breaker 16 is a conventional circuit breaker with a tripping mechanism.
[0040] The present invention's operating principle: The leakage protection actuator is connected to the magnetic ring assembly 1 and then mounted on the housing 14 on one side of a multi-pole circuit breaker 16. The multi-pole circuit breaker 16 is then spliced to the housing 14 via a busbar 15, thereby electrically connecting the leakage protection actuator and the multi-pole circuit breaker 16. Simultaneously, a tripping member in the multi-pole circuit breaker 16 extends through the base 2 into an arc-shaped hole on one side of the actuator 6. This allows the actuator 6 to rotate clockwise, driving the tripping member to actuate and disconnect the circuit breaker.
[0041] When leakage occurs in the external circuit, the magnetic ring assembly 1 moves toward the reset member 8 ( Figure 4 The handle 3 is pushed out vertically downward (in the direction of the middle arrow), causing the reset member 8 to rotate counterclockwise under the pushing effect; since the handle 3 is in the closed position at this time, the pressure block 301 can press the reset member spring 13 and the reset member 8 to be in a separated state, thereby not hindering the rotation of the reset member 8. After the reset member 8 rotates, the push plate 801 at the upper end drives the lock 7 to move counterclockwise through the transmission plate 701, causing the step groove 702 to disengage from the engagement state with the snap block 501 and separate from each other. After the snap block 501 is tripped, the limit in the clockwise direction is lost, causing the tripping buckle 5 to release the limit on the actuator 6, so that the elastic force generated by the actuator spring 10 can directly drive the actuator 6 to move clockwise and drive the tripping member to operate, thereby realizing the disconnection of the circuit breaker.
[0042] After the circuit breaker is disconnected, the handle 3 is moved counterclockwise under the action of the handle spring 9 to complete the tripping action, thereby driving the connecting rod 4 to first tilt downward and push the jump buckle 5 towards the actuator 6, so that the jump buckle 5 is rotated to the position with the actuator 6, and then the jump buckle 5 is pulled back in the subsequent rotation process, so that the jump buckle 5 is moved upward and downward, when the jump buckle 5 is moved to the top position away from the buckling block 501, the jump buckle spring 12 can be in close contact with the base 2 and limit one end of the jump buckle 5, so that the jump buckle 5 can be moved counterclockwise under the action of the pullback at one end of the buckling block 501, so that the buckling block 501 can be squeezed to open the lock 7 and re-enter the stepped groove 702 under the action of the elastic force, and the lock 7 is squeezed to open, and then the lock spring 11 is reset to rebound, so that the stepped groove 702 and the buckling block 501 are in the buckling state again. At the same time, when the handle 3 rotates counterclockwise, the pressing block 301 will be released from the pressing of the reset part spring 13, so that the reset part spring 13 can contact the reset part 8 after rebounding and drive the reset part 8 to rotate clockwise, so that the bottom of the reset part 8 can push the magnetic ring assembly 1 back to the reset position after clockwise rotation, thereby resetting the magnetic ring assembly 1. Through the above steps, the invention can respectively realize the pushing open of the tripping device and the external reset of the tripping device, so that the magnetic ring assembly 1 of the invention can be applied to the electromagnetic tripping device, thereby effectively reducing the size and cost of the leakage protection execution mechanism.
[0043] When the circuit breaker is manually closed and reset, the handle 3 is moved clockwise under the action of external driving, thereby driving the connecting rod 4 to tilt downward and push the jump buckle 5 towards the actuator 6. After the jump buckle 5 is pushed, the buckling block 501 at one end cannot move due to the buckling limitation of the stepped groove 702, so that the rotating connection end of the jump buckle 5 moves downward along the counterclockwise rotation direction of the actuator 6, thereby driving the actuator 6 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the actuator 6 is reset and the actuator spring 10 is reset to the pre-tightening state. After the handle 3 is rotated to the closed position, the pressing block 301 re-presses the reset part spring 13 to separate from the reset part 8 and leave a gap, so that the reset part 8 is restored to the free swing state, thereby achieving the reset effect.
