Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of circuit breakers, and in particular to a circuit breaker with remote local switching and reclosing functions. Background Technology

[0002] To ensure the stable operation of the power grid, circuit breaker assemblies generally need to have reclosing and remote / local switching functions. Currently, these functions are mainly implemented through two methods: The first method involves adjusting the controller's interface to set the corresponding functions. However, this method requires personnel to climb to open the controller's cover, making the operation cumbersome and unsafe, as the controller is typically installed at a high location. The second method involves adding a reclosing module and a remote / local device to the circuit breaker body. This requires on-site personnel to pull down the reclosing handle and the remote / local handle using an insulated rod.

[0003] The second approach corresponds to a circuit breaker such as the one disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent No. CN214956680U, which is a primary and secondary integrated pole-mounted circuit breaker. It includes a housing assembly formed by a chassis, with a fixed pole on the housing assembly and an operating mechanism module inside. The circuit breaker also includes a remote-to-local switching module and a reclosing activation / deactivation module. The remote-to-local switching module includes a switching shaft extending outwards from the housing assembly. A torsion spring is fitted onto the switching shaft to provide a reset force, allowing the switching shaft to remain in a remote state. A switching crank arm is also connected to the switching shaft to drive the corresponding microswitch. The switching crank arm is connected to an elastic holding component to overcome the reset force on the switching shaft, keeping the remote-to-local switching module in a local state. When the circuit breaker is running, if it is necessary to switch between remote and local operating modes, the activation / deactivation operating handle is swung by an insulated operating rod, triggering the remote-to-local switching microswitch connected to the controller. The controller switches between local and remote operating modes based on the state of the remote-to-local switching microswitch. If reclosing is required, the reclosing operation handle is swung by the insulated operating rod, triggering the reclosing switching micro switch connected to the controller. The controller switches between local and remote operation modes according to the state of the reclosing micro switch.

[0004] Currently, the operating mechanism modules within circuit breakers are generally mature products on the market and can be directly purchased. However, if a reclosing activation / deactivation module and a remote / local switching device are required, the operating mechanism module needs to be customized due to the integrated design of most components of the remote / local device with the operating mechanism module, resulting in higher costs. Furthermore, if any component of the remote / local device malfunctions, the entire operating mechanism module must be removed for replacement, leading to a significant workload. After the operating mechanism module is reinstalled in the circuit breaker housing, the circuit breaker's mechanical characteristic parameters need to be readjusted, greatly increasing the workload of assembly and inspection personnel, reducing troubleshooting efficiency, increasing power outage time, and impacting customer satisfaction. Therefore, designing a circuit breaker with reclosing activation / deactivation and remote / local switching functions that reduces the workload of assembly and inspection personnel is of great significance. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a circuit breaker with remote local switching and reclosing enable / disable functions.

[0016] The beneficial effect of the above-mentioned further defined technical solution is that it can facilitate the installation of the support spring.

[0017] As a further defined technical solution: the spring seat is formed by a flange structure provided on the guide rod.

The side of the engagement / disengagement module mounting plate facing away from the inner wall of the housing assembly is provided with an engagement / disengagement action micro switch corresponding to the engagement / disengagement switch trigger arm on the engagement / disengagement crank arm, and is also provided with a limit pin corresponding to the positioning arm on the engagement / disengagement crank arm, which is used to limit the forward and reverse extreme rotation positions of the engagement / disengagement shaft.

[0024] The beneficial effect of the aforementioned further defined technical solution is that the reclosing activation and deactivation module can be integrated through the activation and deactivation module mounting plate, which facilitates disassembly and maintenance.

[0045] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to embodiments.

[0046] Embodiment 1 of the circuit breaker with remote local switching and reclosing enable / disable functions in this invention:

[0047] like Figure 1 river Figure 2 As shown, the circuit breaker with remote local switching and reclosing enable / disable functions includes a housing assembly 10. A solid-sealed pole 20 is mounted on the top of the housing assembly 10, and an operating mechanism module 30 is provided inside the housing assembly 10. A remote local indicator 13 and a reclosing enable / disable indicator 14 are provided on the outer side of the front sidewall 11 of the housing assembly 10. The solid-sealed pole 20 and the operating mechanism module 30 can both adopt the structure of the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

[0048] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 The circuit breaker also includes a remote-to-local switching module 40 and a reclosing enable / disable module 50. All components of the remote-to-local switching module 40 are mounted on the housing assembly 10, and are physically independent of the operating mechanism module 30; furthermore, all components of the remote-to-local switching module 40 are mounted on the housing assembly 10, and are physically independent of the operating mechanism module 30. The assembly structure of the remote-to-local switching module 40 and the reclosing enable / disable module 50 will be described in detail below.

[0049] The remote-to-local switching module 40 is used to switch between remote control and local control modes. When a line fault requires maintenance, the circuit breaker is manually tripped and in local mode. It can only be operated manually on-site and cannot be operated remotely from the backend to prevent accidental closing of the circuit breaker due to misoperation from the backend, which could cause an electric shock. Figure 3 , Figure 4 The remote-to-local switching module 40 is mounted on the front side wall 11 of the housing assembly 10, located on the left side of the front side wall 11. It includes a switching shaft 41 that passes through the front side wall 11 of the housing assembly 10. The outer end of the switching shaft 41 is connected to a switching operation handle 43, and the inner end is connected to a switching crank arm 44 for driving the corresponding micro switch. The switching crank arm 44 is connected to an elastic holding component for local holding. The remote-to-local switching module 40 also includes a switching action micro switch 45. The switching action micro switch 45 is fixed to a corresponding fixing stud 18 provided on the front side wall 11 of the housing assembly 10 through a support seat 411 formed by a Z-shaped bending plate. It is connected to the controller of the circuit breaker and is used to transmit switching signals to the controller.

[0050] like Figure 5 , Figure 6The switching shaft 41 of the remote-to-local switching module 40 passes through the switching shaft copper sleeve 42, which is fixed to the mounting hole on the front side wall 11 of the housing assembly 10, enabling the rotational assembly of the switching shaft 41. A torsion spring 46 is fitted on the switching shaft 41, with its two ends respectively adapted to the switching crank arm 44 and the housing assembly 10, providing a reset force to the switching shaft and keeping it in the remote state. Figure 7 The switching crank arm 44 is equipped with a switching switch trigger arm 441, a remote / local limit arm 442, and a holding arm 443. The switching switch trigger arm 441 is equipped with a switching switch trigger rod 445, which is perpendicular to the plane of the switching switch trigger arm 441 and is used to trigger the switching action micro switch 45 when the switching crank arm 44 and the switching shaft 41 swing to their respective positions; simultaneously, if... Figure 12 The switching trigger lever 445 also constitutes a tripping trigger lever, used to trigger the tripping release plate 31 on the operating mechanism module when the circuit breaker is manually tripped or switched to local state, so that the closing hold on the operating mechanism module is released, realizing the tripping action of the circuit breaker. The remote local limit arm 442 is used to limit the extreme swing positions of the switching crank arm 44 and the switching shaft 41, corresponding to the switching action limit pin 15 provided on the inner side of the front wall 11 of the housing assembly 10. Figure 4 , Figure 12 The remote local limit arm 442 is equipped with a closing trigger rod 446, which is perpendicular to the plane where the switching trigger arm 441 is located. When the circuit breaker is manually closed, released from local state, and switched to remote state, the closing trip plate 32 on the operating mechanism module is triggered, and the opening hold trip plate on the operating mechanism module is tripped, thus realizing the closing action of the circuit breaker. Both the opening trip plate 31 and the closing trip plate 32 are connected to corresponding rotating shafts on the operating mechanism module 30 to drive the corresponding rotating shafts to rotate. Manual opening and closing via the rotation of the corresponding rotating shafts is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. The operating mechanism module 30 is also equipped with an opening electromagnet 33 and a closing electromagnet 34 for automatic opening and closing operations. The output end of the opening electromagnet 33 corresponds to the opening trip plate 31, and the closing electromagnet 34 corresponds to the electric trip plate 35. The electric trip plate 35 and the closing trip plate 32 are fixed on the same rotating shaft and can both drive the rotating shaft to rotate.

[0051] A guide pin 444 is provided on the retaining arm 443 for fitting with the elastic retaining assembly. The elastic retaining assembly includes an intermediate transmission member 47, a guide rod 48, and a rotating seat 16. The intermediate transmission member 47 is a transmission connecting plate, with its middle part rotatably mounted on a rotating shaft 17 provided on the housing assembly 10 in the length direction; the right end of the intermediate transmission member 47 is provided with a guide elongated hole 49, and the guide pin 444 on the switching crank arm 44 guides and engages with the guide elongated hole 49 and can rotate relative to the guide elongated hole 49, realizing the transmission connection between the intermediate transmission member 47 and the switching crank arm 44. The left end of the intermediate transmission member 47 is hinged to the guide rod 48, and the guide rod 48 is guided and inserted into the guide rod guide seat 410. The guide rod guide seat 410 is a plate-shaped structure with a through-hole guide insertion hole for the end of the guide rod 48 away from the intermediate transmission member 47 to be guided and inserted and pulled out. The guide rod guide seat 410 has hinge shafts on two opposite sides, which are rotatably mounted on a rotating seat 16 on the left side wall 12 of the housing assembly 10. The rotating seat 16 is formed by two vertical plates protruding from the inner side of the left side wall 12 and arranged at intervals. The guide rod guide seat 410 is guided and mounted between the two vertical plates. The guide rod 48 has a flange structure at one end near the intermediate transmission member 47. The flange structure forms a spring seat. A support spring 412 is sleeved on the guide rod 48. The two ends of the support spring 412 are supported on the guide rod guide seat 410 and the spring seat, respectively. When the circuit breaker is switched to the local state, the support spring 412 is in a compressed state, overcoming the reaction force of the torsion spring 46 on the switching shaft 41, and the circuit breaker remains in the local (open) state. When the circuit breaker needs to be closed after maintenance, it is manually closed. At this time, the circuit breaker is released from the local state, the support spring 412 is in a relaxed state, and the switching shaft 41, under the reset force of the torsion spring 46, makes the switching operation handle 43 return to the horizontal state.

[0052] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 The reclosing engagement / disengagement module 50 is also integrally mounted on the front side wall 11 of the housing assembly 10, located on the right side of the front side wall 11. It includes an engagement / disengagement module mounting plate 51 and an engagement / disengagement rotating shaft 52 that penetrates the front side wall 11 of the housing assembly 10. The engagement / disengagement module mounting plate 51 is fixed to a corresponding fixing stud 18 provided on the inner wall of the front side wall 11 of the housing assembly 10. The engagement / disengagement rotating shaft 52 passes through an engagement / disengagement copper sleeve 510, which is fixed to an assembly hole provided on the front side wall 11 of the housing assembly 10, enabling the rotational assembly of the engagement / disengagement rotating shaft 52. An engagement / disengagement operation handle 53 is connected to the outer end of the engagement / disengagement rotating shaft 52, and an engagement / disengagement crank arm 54 is connected to the inner end. Figure 8 , Figure 11 The two ends of the engagement / disengagement operating handle 53 are provided with hooking grooves 531 for the insulated operating rod to be hooked to prevent the insulated operating rod from detaching. The engagement / disengagement crank arm 54 includes an engagement / disengagement switch trigger arm 541, a spring arm 542, and an engagement / disengagement limit arm 543. Figure 10The engagement / disengagement switch trigger arm 541 is equipped with an engagement / disengagement switch trigger rod 544, which is perpendicular to the plane of the engagement / disengagement switch trigger arm 541. This rod is used to trigger the engagement / disengagement microswitch 58 when the engagement / disengagement crank arm 54 and the engagement / disengagement rotating shaft 52 swing into position. The spring arm 542 is equipped with a spring shaft 545, which is perpendicular to the engagement / disengagement crank arm 54. One axial end of the corresponding spring 56 is attached to the spring shaft 545, and the other end is attached to the mounting shaft 55 on the engagement / disengagement module mounting plate 51. Similar to existing structures, the spring 56 allows the crank arm to maintain its position by utilizing a dead point when the relative positions of the spring shaft 545, the mounting shaft 55, and the rotation center of the engagement / disengagement crank arm 54 change. The engagement / disengagement limit arm 543 is used to limit the extreme swing positions of the engagement / disengagement crank arm 54 and the engagement / disengagement shaft 52. It corresponds to the two engagement / disengagement action limit pins 59 set on the engagement / disengagement module mounting plate 51, respectively limiting the reclosing engagement limit position and the reclosing disengagement limit position of the engagement / disengagement crank arm 54. The engagement / disengagement action micro switch 58 in the remote local switching module 40 is directly fixed on the side of the engagement / disengagement module mounting plate 51 facing away from the inner wall of the housing assembly 10, and is connected to the circuit breaker controller to transmit the reclosing engagement / disengagement signal to the controller.

[0053] The prior art uses a switching action micro switch 45 and an engagement / disengagement action micro switch 58 connected to the controller to achieve remote and local switching and reclosing engagement / disengagement respectively. The Chinese utility model patent with authorization announcement number CN214956680U cited in the background art discloses a primary and secondary integrated pole-mounted circuit breaker that uses the aforementioned switching action micro switch 45 and engagement / disengagement action micro switch 58.

[0054] When the circuit breaker needs to be operated locally, by pulling down the "open" side pull ring of the switching operation handle 43, the remote local switching module 40 is driven to move counterclockwise. The switching crank arm 44 drives the intermediate transmission component 47, and the intermediate transmission component 47 drives the guide rod 48 to move upward. When the support spring 412 returns to its natural state, the upper end of the remote local limit arm 442 of the switching crank arm 44 abuts against the corresponding switching action limit pin 15. At the same time, the switching switch trigger rod 445 on the switching switch trigger arm 441 presses down the trigger plate of the switching action micro switch 45, and the opening and closing points of the switching action micro switch 45 are switched, transmitting the signal to the controller.

[0055] When the circuit breaker needs to be operated remotely, by pulling down the "close" side pull ring of the switching operation handle 43, the remote local switching module 40 is driven to rotate clockwise. The switching crank arm 44 drives the intermediate transmission component 47, which in turn drives the guide rod 48 to move upward. When the support spring 412 returns to its natural state, the lower end of the remote local limit arm 442 of the switching crank arm 44 abuts against the corresponding switching action limit pin 15. At the same time, the switching switch trigger rod 445 on the switching switch trigger arm 441 releases the trigger plate of the switching action micro switch 45, and the opening and closing points of the switching action micro switch 45 are switched, transmitting the signal to the controller.

[0056] When the circuit breaker needs to be deactivated for reclosing, the reclosing operation handle 53 is pulled down to the pull ring on the "reclosing deactivation" side, causing the reclosing operation module 50 to rotate clockwise. Under the tension of the spring 56, the reclosing limit arm 543 of the reclosing crank arm 54 moves to be tangent to the upper reclosing action limit pin 59. At this time, the reclosing switch trigger rod 544 presses down on the trigger plate of the reclosing action micro switch 58, switching the opening and closing points of the reclosing action micro switch 58 and transmitting the signal to the controller.

[0057] When the circuit breaker needs to be deactivated for reclosing, the reclosing operation handle 53 is pulled down to the pull ring on the "reclosing on" side, causing the reclosing operation module 50 to rotate counterclockwise. Under the tension of the spring 56, the reclosing limit arm 543 of the reclosing crank arm 54 moves to tangent to the lower reclosing action limit pin 59. At this time, the reclosing switch trigger rod 544 releases the trigger plate of the reclosing action micro switch 58, switching the opening and closing points of the reclosing action micro switch 58 and transmitting the signal to the controller.

[0058] Embodiment 2 of the circuit breaker with remote local switching and reclosing enable / disable functions in this invention:

[0059] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in Embodiment 1, all components of the remote-to-local switching module and the reclosing activation / deactivation module 50 are mounted on the housing assembly 10, and are physically independent of the operating mechanism module 30. In this embodiment, only the components of the remote-to-local switching module are mounted on the housing assembly 10, and are physically independent of the operating mechanism module 30.
