A fifth tension spring 51 is provided between the sixth pin shaft 49 and the swing hook 43.,

[0025] Referring Figure 2 As shown, it is a partial structural schematic diagram of the present invention in a normal state. At this time, the first latch 32 of the release cam 5 is latched with the latch 30, and the upper end of the release cam 5 abuts against the actuating reed of the second microswitch 14 to keep the second microswitch 14 in an open state. At the same time, under the action of the third tension spring 47, the stop hook 10 causes the column 12 to abut against the actuating reed of the first microswitch 11 to keep the first microswitch 11 in an open state.

[0026] Referring Figure 3 As shown, it is a partial structural schematic diagram of the present invention in a fault (overload, open phase, leakage) tripping state. From Figure 2 state to Figure 3 state, when a fault (overload, open phase, leakage) occurs in the equipment, the release 24 trips, causing the push rod 35 to move leftward to push the latch 30 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby causing the first latch 32 to disengage from the latch 30. At the same time, the upper end of the release cam 5 disengages from the second microswitch 14, and the second microswitch 14 disconnects to release a tripping signal. At the same time, the release cam 5 pushes the electromagnetic pressure plate 37 downward.

[0027] Referring Figure 4 As shown, it is a partial structural schematic diagram of the present invention in a short - circuit fault tripping state. From Figure 2 state to Figure 4 state, since the wire passes through the opening groove 41, when a short - circuit occurs in the equipment, a large current passes through the wire, causing the armature 44 and the magnet to attract each other. The armature 44 drives the swing hook 43 to rotate clockwise, and the swing hook 43 drives the swing arm 31 and the latch 30 to rotate counterclockwise, causing the latch 30 to disengage from the first latch 32. The release cam 5 rotates counterclockwise under the torque of the first tension spring 26. The upper end of the release cam 5 disengages from the second microswitch 14, and the second microswitch 14 disconnects to release a tripping signal. At the same time, the release cam 5 pushes the electromagnetic pressure plate 37 downward.

[0028] Referring Figure 5 As shown, it is a partial structural schematic diagram of the present invention in a manually - disconnected state. From Figure 2The state transitions to Figure 5 When in the state, rotate the handle shaft 4 clockwise to drive the linkage block 8 to rotate clockwise. The linkage block 8 cooperates with the rotating shaft 19 to make the stop hook 10 rotate clockwise, so that the column 12 disengages from the first microswitch 11, and the first microswitch 11 controls the energization of the electromagnetic system.

[0029] Refer to Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, it is a partial structural schematic diagram of the invention in the re-latching state after tripping. From Figure 3 or Figure 4 When transitioning to Figure 6 the state, rotate the handle shaft 4 counterclockwise to drive the protrusion 6 to rotate counterclockwise. The protrusion 6 pushes the tripping cam 5 to rotate clockwise. The protrusion 46 of the tripping cam 5 pushes the push rod 35 to move to the right to reset and store energy. The latch 30 and the swing arm 31 rotate clockwise to reset under the torsion of the second tension spring 38. At the same time, the first latch 32 of the tripping cam 5 engages with the latch 30. The swing arm 31 rotates clockwise to reset under the action of the fourth tension spring 50. The swing hook 43 rotates counterclockwise to reset under the action of the fifth tension spring 51, so that the armature 44 disengages from the magnetic yoke 42.

[0030] Refer to Figure 7 As shown, the outer circle of the linkage block 8 or the first arc-shaped convex block 16 can abut against the bracket 15. The second arc-shaped convex block 17 of the linkage block 8 can abut against the rotating shaft 19. The bracket 15 abuts against three parts of the linkage block 8, representing three positions of the stop hook 10. And a spring 18 is provided between the bracket 15 and the stop hook 10 to ensure that the bracket 15 can firmly abut against the outer circle of the linkage block 8 or the first arc-shaped convex block 16 or the second arc-shaped convex block 17, making the action of the stop hook 10 more accurate and stable.

[0031] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features.
