[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of low-voltage electrical appliances, and particularly to a circuit breaker state indication structure. Background Art
[0002] Low-voltage circuit breakers usually have three states, namely closing, opening, and free tripping. In the design of the existing state indication structures for closing, opening, and free tripping of circuit breakers, one is to set two micro switches above the mechanism rotating shaft of the low-voltage circuit breaker to respectively indicate the closing and opening states of the circuit breaker, and set a micro switch at the tripping link of the low-voltage circuit breaker to indicate whether the low-voltage circuit breaker trips. This greatly occupies the space of the auxiliary contacts and alarm contacts of the low-voltage circuit breaker. Since the space inside the low-voltage circuit breaker is extremely limited, if the existing low-voltage circuit breaker is used to set three micro switches to achieve the indication of the three states of closing, opening, and tripping, but if the auxiliary contacts and alarm contacts are required to implement related functions, the requirements cannot be met due to space limitations.

[0043] The following further describes the specific implementation manners of the circuit breaker state indication structure of the present invention in conjunction with the Figures 1 to 23 embodiments given. The circuit breaker state indication structure of the present invention is not limited to the description of the following embodiments.
[0044] For example Figures 1 - 8As shown in the figure, the circuit breaker status indication structure of the present invention includes an upper cover assembly 91, a handle 92, a base 93, a moving contact 94, a static contact 95, a housing 4, a circuit board 3, a first microswitch 1, and a second microswitch 2. The upper cover assembly 91 is buckled on the base 93, and an operation through-hole is provided on the upper cover assembly 91. On the top surface of the upper cover assembly 91, a tripping mark 911, a trip mark 912, and a closing mark 913 are sequentially provided on one side of the operation through-hole. One end of the handle 92 is swingably installed in the base 93, and the other end passes through the operation through-hole of the upper cover assembly 91 and extends outside the circuit breaker for operation. One end of the moving contact 94 is a swinging end 941 that cooperates with the static contact 95, and the other end is a mounting end 942. The mounting end 942 of the moving contact 94 is rotatably installed on the rotating shaft 96 of the base 93. The handle 92 is drivingly connected to the moving contact 94 and can drive the swinging end 941 of the moving contact 94 to disconnect or close with the static contact 95, realizing the tripping or closing of the circuit breaker. It should be noted that the realization of the handle 92 driving the moving contact 94 to achieve the tripping and closing of the circuit breaker is a prior art.
[0045] As Figures 9 - 10 shown, the housing 4 is installed in the base 93. The housing 4 is provided with a mounting groove 401 for installing the circuit board 3. A support platform 409 for supporting the circuit board 3 is provided in the mounting groove 401 of the housing 4. A buckle 408 is provided on the side wall of the mounting groove 401. The circuit board 3 is located between the support platform 409 and the buckle 408. The circuit board 3 is placed on the support platform 409, and the buckle 408 buckles the circuit board 3. As Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 shown, the moving contact 94 is located below the handle 92. The circuit board 3 is installed in the mounting groove 401 of the housing 4 and is located between the handle 92 and the moving contact 94. As Figures 11 - 12 shown, the first microswitch 1 is installed on the top surface of the circuit board 3 and is located below the handle 92. The second microswitch 2 is installed on the bottom surface of the circuit board 3 and is located above the moving contact 94.
[0046] The handle 92 and the moving contact 94 are respectively cooperated with the first microswitch 1 and the second microswitch 2, and the closing, opening and tripping states of the low-voltage circuit breaker are judged by the combination of the contact states of the two groups of microswitches. When opening, the handle 92 triggers the first microswitch 1 and the moving contact 94 does not trigger the second microswitch 2; when closing, the handle 92 does not trigger the first microswitch 1 and the moving contact 94 triggers the second microswitch 2; when tripping, the handle 92 does not trigger the first microswitch 1 and the moving contact 94 does not trigger the second microswitch 2 either; or when opening, the handle 92 does not trigger the first microswitch 1 and the moving contact 94 triggers the second microswitch 2; when closing, the handle 92 triggers the first microswitch 1 and the moving contact 94 does not trigger the second microswitch 2; when tripping, the handle 92 does not trigger the first microswitch 1 and the moving contact 94 does not trigger the second microswitch 2 either. The circuit breaker state indication structure of the present invention judges the closing, opening and tripping states of the low-voltage circuit breaker by the combination of the contact states of the two groups of microswitches. One group is to switch the state of the microswitch through the handle 92, and the other group is to switch the state of the microswitch through the moving contact 94, reducing one group of microswitches, saving occupied space and cost, and at the same time having a simple and reasonable layout, avoiding interfering with the addition of other parts.
[0047] Such as Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8In a preferred embodiment shown, the first micro switch 1 has a first push rod 101 for switching the normally open contact and the normally closed contact of the first micro switch 1, and the second micro switch 2 has a second push rod 201 for switching the normally open contact and the normally closed contact of the second micro switch 2. The handle 92 is provided with a first triggering portion 922 corresponding to the first push rod 101. When the circuit breaker is opened, the first triggering portion 922 of the handle 92 drives the first push rod 101 to achieve the conversion of the contact state of the first micro switch 1. When the circuit breaker is closed, the handle 92 does not trigger the first micro switch 1. The moving contact 94 is provided with a second triggering portion 943 corresponding to the second push rod 201. When the circuit breaker is closed, the second triggering portion 943 of the moving contact 94 drives the second push rod 201 to achieve the conversion of the contact state of the second micro switch 2. When the circuit breaker is opened, the second micro switch 2 is not triggered. When tripping, the operating mechanism trips and drives the moving contact to separate from the static contact, and the moving contact 94 does not trigger the second micro switch 2. At this time, the handle 92 swings to the trip mark 912, and the first micro switch 1 is not triggered. The first micro switch 1 and the second micro switch 2 both have three pins, namely a common terminal, a normally closed point, and a normally open point. The push rod action of the micro switch can convert the normally open contact and the normally closed contact of the micro switch, which can be realized by the prior art. The circuit breaker state indication structure of the present invention judges the three states of closing, opening and tripping of the low-voltage circuit breaker by combining two groups of micro switch contact states. One group is to push the push rod to switch the state of the micro switch by the closing position of the handle 92, and the other group is to push the push rod to switch the state of the micro switch by the moving contact 94. A group of micro switches is reduced, which saves space and costs. At the same time, the layout is simple and reasonable, avoiding interference with the addition of other parts. The two groups of micro switches are integrated on a circuit board 3 to simplify the structure, save space and simplify the connection method.
[0048] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the first triggering portion 922 of the handle 92 is drivingly connected to the first push rod 101 of the first micro switch 1 through the first lever 5. Figure 15 As shown, the first lever 5 is an integrally formed structure, including a first toggle portion 501, a first connection portion 502, a first mounting portion 503 and a first linkage portion 504 which are connected in sequence. The first mounting portion 503 is a cylinder having a first axial hole 505. The first lever 5 is sleeved on the first mounting shaft 402 of the housing 4 through the first mounting portion 503 to realize rotational mounting on the housing 4. The first connection portion 502 and the first linkage portion 504 are connected to both sides of the outer wall of the first mounting portion 503. The side surfaces of the first connection portion 502 and the first linkage portion 504 are flush with the end surfaces of the first mounting portion 503. One end of the first toggle portion 501 is vertically connected to one side surface of the first connection portion 502. Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8As shown, the first toggle portion 501 at one end of the first toggle lever 5 passes through the first through hole 404 of the housing 4 and presses on the first push rod 101 of the first micro switch 1, and the first linkage portion 504 at the other end of the first toggle lever 5 is arranged corresponding to the first trigger portion 922 of the handle 92.

The first trigger portion 922 is a convex structure arranged at the end of the guide portion 921; the first micro switch 1 is located at the lower side of the handle 92, the first toggle lever 5 is located directly above the first micro switch 1, and the first linkage portion 504 of the first toggle lever 5 is on the motion track of the first trigger portion 922.
[0049] like Figures 13 - 14 As shown, a first torsion spring 6 for resetting the first lever 5 is provided between the first lever 5 and the housing 4. The structure of the first torsion spring 6 is as shown in FIG. Figure 16 The spring body of the first torsion spring 6 is sleeved on the first mounting shaft 402 , the first U-shaped pin 601 at one end of the first torsion spring 6 is buckled on the first connecting portion 502 , and the first straight pin 602 at the other end is snapped into the first limiting groove 403 of the housing 4 .
[0050] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the second triggering portion 943 of the moving contact 94 is drivingly connected to the second push rod 201 of the second micro switch 2 through the second lever 7. Figure 19 As shown, the second lever 7 is an integrally formed structure, including a second toggle portion 701, a second connection portion 702, a second mounting portion 703 and a second linkage portion 704 connected in sequence. The second mounting portion 703 is a cylinder having a second axial hole 705. The second lever 7 is sleeved on the second mounting shaft 405 of the housing 4 through the second mounting portion 703 to realize rotational mounting on the housing 4. The second connection portion 702 and the second linkage portion 704 are connected to both sides of the outer wall of the second mounting portion 703. The side surfaces of the second connection portion 702 and the second linkage portion 704 are flush with the end surfaces of the second mounting portion 703. The second toggle portion 701 is connected to the end of the second connection portion 702, and the two sides of the second toggle portion 701 protrude from the two sides of the second connection portion 702. Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, the second moving part 701 at one end of the second lever 7 passes through the second through hole 407 of the housing 4 and is pressed on the second push rod 201, and the second linkage part 704 at the other end of the second lever 7 is arranged corresponding to the second trigger part 943 of the moving contact 94. The second trigger part 943 is a protruding structure arranged on the top surface of the mounting end 942, and the second linkage part 704 of the second lever 7 abuts against the mounting end 942 of the moving contact 94 and is located between the second trigger part 943 and the swing end 941.
[0051] like Figure 13, Figure 17 and Figure 18 As shown, a second torsion spring 8 for resetting the second lever 7 is provided between the second lever 7 and the housing 4. The structure of the second torsion spring 8 is as shown in FIG. Figure 20 The spring body of the second torsion spring 8 is sleeved on the second mounting shaft 405 , the second U-shaped pin 801 at one end of the second torsion spring 8 is buckled on the second connecting portion 702 , and the second straight pin 802 at the other end is snapped into the second limiting groove 406 of the housing 4 .
[0052] The working process of the circuit breaker status indication structure of the present invention is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the handle 92 is swung until the trip mark 912 is aligned, and the circuit breaker trips. Figure 4 As shown, the first trigger portion 922 of the handle 92 does not touch the first linkage portion 504 of the first lever 5, and the first toggle portion 501 of the first lever 5 keeps pressing the first push rod 101 of the first micro switch 1, so that the contact state of the first micro switch 1 remains unchanged; the moving contact 94 is disconnected from the static contact 95, and the second trigger portion 943 of the moving contact 94 does not touch the second linkage portion 704 of the second lever 7, and the second toggle portion 701 of the second lever 7 keeps pressing the second push rod 201 of the second micro switch 2, so that the contact state of the second micro switch 2 remains unchanged.
[0053] like Figure 5 As shown, the operating handle 92 is aligned with the opening mark 911, and the circuit breaker is opened. Figure 6 As shown, the first trigger portion 922 of the handle 92 presses the first linkage portion 504 of the first lever 5, driving the first lever 5 to rotate, and the first toggle portion 501 of the first lever 5 no longer presses the first push rod 101 of the first micro switch 1, so that the contact state of the first micro switch 1 is converted, and the normally open contact of the first micro switch 1 is converted into a normally closed contact, and the normally closed contact is converted into a normally open contact; at the same time, the handle 92 drives the moving contact 94 to disconnect from the static contact 95, and the second trigger portion 943 of the moving contact 94 does not touch the second linkage portion 704 of the second lever 7, and the second toggle portion 701 of the second lever 7 keeps pressing the second push rod 201 of the second micro switch 2, so that the contact state of the second micro switch 2 remains unchanged.
[0054] like Figure 7 As shown, the operating handle 92 is aligned with the closing mark 913, and the circuit breaker is closed. Figure 8As shown, the first trigger portion 922 of the handle 92 does not touch the first linkage portion 504 of the first toggle lever 5, and the first toggling portion 501 of the first toggle lever 5 keeps pressing the first push rod 101 of the first microswitch 1, so that the contact state of the first microswitch 1 remains unchanged; at the same time, the handle 92 drives the moving contact 94 to close with the static contact 95, and the second trigger portion 943 of the moving contact 94 pushes up the second linkage portion 704 of the second toggle lever 7, driving the second toggle lever 7 to rotate. The second toggling portion 701 of the second toggle lever 7 no longer presses the second push rod 201 of the second microswitch 2, so that the contact state of the second microswitch 2 is converted. The normally open contact of the second microswitch 2 is converted into a normally closed contact, and the normally closed contact is converted into a normally open contact.
[0055] It should be noted that the circuit breaker state indication structure of the present invention is also provided with a control processing module to receive the signals of the two groups of microswitches, perform logical processing, and then output signals representing the three states of tripping, opening, and closing of the low-voltage circuit breaker to the remote host computer. This is the prior art and will not be elaborated here.
[0056] As Figures 21 - 23 shown, the circuit breaker of the present invention further includes a circuit breaker voltage isolation structure, which includes a circuit board 3, a bracket 901, a push plate 902, a return spring 903, a torsion spring 904, a knob rod 905 and two pins 906. The bracket 901 is installed on the circuit board 3, the push plate 902 is slidably installed on the bracket 901, the return spring 903 is abutted between one end of the bracket 901 and the push plate 902, and the other end of the push plate 902 is matched with the knob rod 905. The knob rod 905 is rotatably installed on the circuit board 3, and the knob rod 905 has a cam 9051, and the cam 9051 has a top abutting surface 9052. The two pins 906 are installed on the circuit board 3, one of the pins 906 is electrically connected to an external circuit through a wire 907, and the other pin 906 is electrically connected to the circuit board 3. The torsion spring 904 is installed on the push plate 902, and the torsion spring 904 has two pins 9041. The two pins 9041 of the torsion spring 904 are abutted on the push plate 902 and can be connected to the two pins 906 in one-to-one correspondence.
[0057] When the cam 9051 of the knob rod 905 does not contact the abutting surface 9052, the two pins 9041 of the torsion spring 904 are not connected to the two pins 906, and the circuit board 3 is not connected to the external circuit; when the knob rod 905 is rotated, the cam 9051 of the knob rod 905 pushes the push plate 902 to slide on the bracket 901. When the cam 9051 of the knob rod 905 rotates to abut against the abutting surface 9052 and contacts the push plate 902, the torsion spring 904 on the push plate 902 moves with the push plate 902 until the two pins 9041 are connected to the two pins 906, realizing the conduction between the circuit board 3 and the external circuit. The circuit breaker voltage isolation structure of the present invention can disconnect the connection between the external circuit and the circuit board through physical isolation, ensuring the safety of the operator during use and testing. It can quickly and accurately disconnect or connect the external circuit and the circuit board, and the operation is simple and convenient; the rotational motion is converted into a translational motion to push the torsion spring to connect with the pin, and the conduction synchronization is good.
