Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of low-voltage electrical technology, specifically relating to a dual-position locking and unlocking mechanism for a switch device operating system, which is particularly suitable for dual-power automatic transfer switches. Background Technology
[0002] Automatic transfer switches (ATS) are widely used in modern power transmission and distribution systems, especially in hospitals, intelligent buildings, data centers, power plants, banks, and critical infrastructure where continuous power supply is crucial. During operation, the reliability and stability of the ATS directly affect the continuous power output of the transmission and distribution lines. There are two types of ATS: two-position and three-position. Two-position ATSs switch between two states: the primary power supply is closed (while the backup power supply is open) and the backup power supply is closed (while the primary power supply is open), ensuring continuous, stable, and reliable power output. Three-position ATSs, in addition to achieving the two-position operation, can simultaneously have both the primary and backup power supplies open (i.e., double-open state) and lock the open state.
[0003] The operating system, as a core component of a dual-power automatic transfer switch, provides the kinetic energy for position switching and, through its output, drives the contact system of the automatic transfer switch to switch the closing position between the normal power supply and the standby power supply. Specifically, the operating system of a two-position automatic transfer switch has two states, corresponding to the normal power supply closed position and the standby power supply closed position, respectively. The operating system of a three-position automatic transfer switch has three states, corresponding to the normal power supply closed position, the standby power supply closed position, and the double open position, respectively.
[0004] However, existing three-position automatic transfer switches have locking mechanisms for the normal operating side, the standby side, and the dual-position side, and these locking mechanisms do not interfere with each other. This can easily lead to situations where only one position is locked, while the other is not, resulting in misoperation and safety accidents. Furthermore, existing dual-power automatic transfer switches have a dual-spindle structure, which cannot meet the requirement of same-side wiring. Another issue is that existing dual-power automatic transfer switches require manual operation for closing and opening, which can be problematic if the manual operation is too small, making it impossible to complete the action, while excessive manual operation can easily damage the switch. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing dual-power automatic transfer switch operating systems by providing a dual-position locking and unlocking mechanism for the switch operating system. This mechanism enables stable switching between three states: the primary power supply is closed (while the backup power supply is open), the backup power supply is closed (while the primary power supply is open), and both the primary and backup power supplies are open (i.e., dual-open). After the three position transitions are completed and the switch remains in the final position, corresponding locking devices lock the corresponding positions. The locking devices for each position are interconnected to prevent malfunctions and ensure that manual closing and opening are independent of human intervention. The entire dual-power automatic transfer switch operating system features a modular component layout, a compact structure, convenient and quick installation and maintenance, easy operation, and high reliability.

[0064] In this embodiment, when the backup power supply is in the closed state, the position states of each component are as follows: (see attached diagram) Figure 16 As shown, the standby side flip limit linkage shaft A101' is located at the bottom end of the arc-shaped long slot 103', and the flip lever A1' is at its maximum clockwise rotation angle position. The iron core B01' of the electromagnet B' on the standby side is in the retracted state. Since the flip levers A1 and A1' are simultaneously linked with the slide plate 2, the flip limit linkage shaft A101 is located at the upper part of the arc-shaped long slot 103, the commonly used side flip lever A1 is at its maximum clockwise rotation angle position, and the iron core B01 of the electromagnet B on the commonly used side is in the extended state.

Under the action of the spring force of indicator return spring E2, its indicator linkage part E102 is limited by the flip-limit linkage shaft A101, causing indicator E1 to display the open state as shown in the attached figure. Figure 17 As shown.
[0066] As attached Figure 17As shown, the line connecting the rotation centers of the commonly used side flip-limit linkage shaft A101 and the commonly used side rotation linkage shaft C1 is located above the rotation center O of the commonly used side rotating lever C, and the line connecting the rotation centers of the spare side flip-limit linkage shaft A101' and the spare side rotation linkage shaft C1' is located below the rotation center O' of the spare side rotating lever C'. At this time, the rotating lever C is subjected to the spring force of the main spring D and receives a counterclockwise torque, and the rotating lever C' is subjected to the spring force of the main spring D' and receives a counterclockwise torque. The normal line a of the contact surface between the linkage limiting part 301a0101 in the commonly used side linkage slot 301a01 on the mounting bushing 301 and the commonly used side rotation linkage shaft C1 points to the rotation center O of the commonly used side rotating lever C. In this embodiment, the electromagnet B on the commonly used side and the electromagnet on the spare side... With a longer stroke, the commonly used side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101 is located at the upper top of the arc-shaped long slot 103 on the commonly used side, and the spare side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101' is located at the lower top of the arc-shaped long slot 103' on the spare side, thus achieving limitation. Simultaneously, the strokes of the commonly used side's electromagnet B and the spare side's electromagnet B' can also be used to directly limit the positions of the commonly used side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101 and the spare side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101'. Specifically, the strokes of the commonly used side's electromagnet B and the spare side's electromagnet B' are designed to be relatively short, and their corresponding iron cores B01' and B01 can only move to their lowest point before stopping, thereby achieving the purpose of limiting the positions of the corresponding commonly used side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101 and the spare side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101'. Under the combined action of the rotating levers C and C', as shown in the attached... Figure 18 As shown, the mounting sleeve 301 is located at its maximum clockwise rotation position (i.e., the standby power supply closed position). The double-position linkage part 301b of the mounting sleeve 301 is located inside the waist-shaped limiting hole F101 on the limiting plate F1, and the unlocking limiting shaft linkage part F102 on the limiting plate F1 is located to the left of the unlocking limiting shaft F502; the iron core F501 of the unlocking electromagnet F5 is in the extended state. The double-position linkage part 301b is a columnar protrusion on the outer circumference of the mounting sleeve 301, and the unlocking limiting shaft linkage part F102 is a boss in the hole on the limiting plate F1. Due to the spring force of the toggle lever 4's return springs 4a and 4a', the right side of the sliding plate linkage part 401 of the toggle lever 4 contacts the driven shaft 2b on the sliding plate 2 as shown in the attached figure. Figure 19 As shown, in this embodiment, the sliding plate linkage part 401 is a horizontal hole.
[0067] As attached Figure 19As shown, due to the reset action of the unlocking lever return spring F3, the flipping limit linkage shaft A101 of the unlocking lever F2 is located at the leftmost position of the unlocking waist-shaped elongated hole one F201, and the unlocking limit shaft F502 is located at the rightmost position of the unlocking waist-shaped elongated hole two F202; due to the reset action of the unlocking lever return spring F3', the flipping limit linkage shaft A101' of the unlocking lever F2' is located at the rightmost position of the unlocking waist-shaped elongated hole one F201', and the unlocking limit shaft F502 is located at the rightmost position of its unlocking waist-shaped elongated hole two F202'.
[0068] When the standby power supply switches from the closed position to the open position: Rotate lever 4 counterclockwise. Lever 4 then moves slide plate 2 from right to left. Slide plate 2, in turn, moves flip levers A1 and A1' counterclockwise simultaneously. Alternatively, energize electromagnet B on the normal power supply side, causing core B01 to retract, which in turn pulls lever A3 and moves flip lever A1 counterclockwise. During this rotation, flip lever A1, via slide plate 2, moves flip lever A1' counterclockwise as well. (See attached diagram) Figure 20 As shown.
[0069] When the flip lever A1 rotates until the line connecting the rotation centers of the flip limit linkage shaft A101 and the rotation linkage shaft C1 passes through the rotation center O of the corresponding rotating lever C, the flip lever A1' also rotates until the line connecting the flip limit linkage shaft A101' and the rotation linkage shaft C1' passes through the rotation center O' of the rotating lever C'. The main spring D on the normally used side does not generate a rotational torque on the corresponding rotating lever C, thus placing the corresponding rotating lever C in a dead position. Similarly, the main spring D' on the spare side does not generate a rotational torque on the corresponding rotating lever C', thus placing the corresponding rotating lever C' in a dead position. (See attached diagram) Figure 21 As shown.
[0070] As attached Figure 22 As shown, the flip levers A1 and A1' continue to rotate counterclockwise until they reach their positions. At this point, the line connecting the rotation centers of the flip limit linkage shaft A101 and the rotation linkage shaft C1 is below the rotation center O of the rotating lever C, and the line connecting the flip limit linkage shaft A101' and the rotation linkage shaft C1' is above the rotation center O' of the rotating lever C'. The rotating lever C is subjected to the spring force of the main spring D and a clockwise torque, while the rotating lever C' is subjected to the spring force of the main spring D' and a clockwise torque. Clockwise torque; the rotating lever C rotates clockwise, causing the rotating linkage shaft C1 to slide inside the linkage slot 301a01, and the rotating lever C' rotates clockwise, causing the rotating linkage shaft C'1 to slide inside the linkage slot 301a01'. During the sliding process, the rotating linkage shaft C and the rotating linkage shaft C' are linked to the mounting sleeve 301 to rotate counterclockwise. The counterclockwise rotation of the mounting sleeve 301 is linked to the output shaft 302 to also output counterclockwise rotation, thereby tripping the backup power supply.
[0071] As attached Figure 23 As shown, during the counterclockwise rotation of lever 4, the unlocking lever contact part 403 is linked to the unlocking lever driven part F203 of unlocking lever F2, and overcomes the spring force of unlocking lever return spring F3, causing the flipping limit linkage shaft A101 to slide within the unlocking oblong hole F201 of unlocking lever F2, and simultaneously causing the unlocking limit shaft F502 to slide within the unlocking oblong hole F202 of unlocking lever F2. As a result, unlocking lever F2 slides away from the center of the operating system. After the counterclockwise rotation of lever 4 is completed, lever 4 is released, and it performs a clockwise reset operation under the action of lever return spring 4a'. Its unlocking lever contact part 403 disengages from the unlocking lever driven part F203 of unlocking lever F2, and unlocking lever F2 resets towards the center of the operating system under the action of unlocking lever return spring F3. Finally, the unlocking lever driven part F203 is located below the unlocking lever contact part 403 of lever 4, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 24 As shown.
[0072] When the mounting bushing 301 rotates counterclockwise, its double-position linkage part 301b actuates the oblong limiting hole F101 on the limiting plate F1, causing the limiting plate F1 to rotate counterclockwise. During the counterclockwise rotation of the limiting plate F1, its unlocking limiting shaft linkage part F102 is limited by the unlocking limiting shaft F502 (at this time, the unlocking limiting shaft linkage part F102 is located to the left of the unlocking limiting shaft F502). After the limiting plate F1 is limited, the oblong limiting hole F101 also passes through the double-position linkage part 301b in reverse. 1b limits the counterclockwise rotation of the mounting sleeve 301; at this time, the line connecting the rotation centers of the flip-limit linkage shaft A101 and the rotation linkage shaft C1 is still below the rotation center O of the rotating lever C, and the line connecting the flip-limit linkage shaft A101' and the rotation linkage shaft C1' is still above the rotation center O' of the rotating lever C'. The rotating lever C is subjected to the spring force of the main spring D and a clockwise torque, and the rotating lever C' is subjected to the spring force of the main spring D' and a clockwise torque as shown in the attached figure. Figure 25a and 25b As shown;
[0073] After the mounting sleeve 301 is unlocked by the limit plate F1 and the limit shaft F502 is limited, the operating system is in a state where neither the backup power supply nor the normal power supply is connected. This state is the dual-position state of the dual power automatic transfer switch.
[0074] When switching from the dual-position state to the standby power supply connection: In this state, the electromagnet B' on the standby side is energized, causing its core B01' to retract, or the lever 4 is rotated clockwise while the flip levers A1 and A1' rotate clockwise; after rotation, the line connecting the rotation centers of the flip limit linkage shaft A101 and the rotation linkage shaft C1 is above the rotation center O of the rotation lever C, and the line connecting the flip limit linkage shaft A101' and the rotation linkage shaft C1' is below the rotation center O' of the rotation lever C'. The rotation levers C and C', due to the counterclockwise torque, rotate counterclockwise simultaneously. They rotate clockwise through the linkage shafts C1 and C1', which in turn drive the mounting sleeve 301, thus achieving the standby power supply connection of the operating system (see attached figure). Figure 19 As shown.
[0075] When this embodiment transitions from the dual-position state to the normal power supply closing state: In the dual-position state, the limit plate F1 is limited by the unlocking limit shaft F502. Energizing the unlocking electromagnet F5 causes its core F501 to retract. The core F501 then moves the unlocking limit shaft F502 downwards within the waist-shaped vertical slot 110. During this movement, the unlocking limit shaft F502 disengages from the unlocking limit shaft linkage part F102 of the limit plate F1, releasing the lock on the limit plate F1. Simultaneously, the limit plate F1 also releases the lock on the dual-position linkage part 301b of the mounting sleeve 301. Under the action of the main springs D,D', the rotating levers C,C' rotate the mounting sleeve 301 counterclockwise, thereby driving the output shaft 302 to rotate counterclockwise, thus closing the normal power supply as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 26 and 27 As shown.
[0076] Alternatively, in the dual-position state, the limiting plate F1 is limited by the unlocking limiting shaft F502. At this time, rotating the lever 4 counterclockwise causes its unlocking lever contact part 403 to press the unlocking lever driven part F203 of the unlocking lever F2. Under the action of the unlocking lever return spring F3, the unlocking lever F2 rotates clockwise around the flipping limiting linkage shaft A101. During the clockwise rotation of the unlocking lever F2, it moves the unlocking limiting shaft F502 downward and slides within the waist-shaped vertical slot 110. During the downward movement of the unlocking limiting shaft F502, its linkage part F102 with the unlocking limiting shaft of the limiting plate F1 releases the lock on the limiting plate F1, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 28 As shown, simultaneously, the limit plate F1 also releases the lock on the double-position linkage part 301b of the mounting sleeve 301. Under the action of the main springs D and D', the rotating levers C and C' drive the mounting sleeve 301 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby driving the output shaft 302 to rotate counterclockwise, realizing the closing of the power supply on the normal side as shown in the attached figure. Figure 28 As shown.
[0077] After the power supply on the normal operating side completes the closing action, the line connecting the rotation centers of the standby side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101' and the standby side's rotary linkage shaft C1' is located above the rotation center of the standby side's rotary lever C', and the line connecting the rotation centers of the normal operating side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101 and the normal operating side's rotary linkage shaft C1 is located below the rotation center of the normal operating side's rotary lever C. The normal line b of the contact surface between the linkage limiting part 301a0101' in the standby side's linkage slot 301a01' on the mounting sleeve 301 and the standby side's rotary linkage shaft C1' points to the rotation center of the standby side's rotary lever C'. At this time, the standby side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101' is located at the upper top of the standby side's arc-shaped long slot 103', and the normal operating side's flip-limit linkage shaft A101 is located at the lower top of the normal operating side's arc-shaped long slot 103, thus achieving a limit. That is, the mounting sleeve 301 is locked in position by the rotary lever C' and cannot be rotated clockwise (see attached). Figure 29 As shown.
[0078] In this embodiment, the indicating state of the indicator is as follows: When the standby power supply is in the closed state: the standby rotating lever C' is at its maximum counterclockwise rotation position under the action of the main spring D', and its indicator linkage part C2' contacts the indicating touch part E101' of the indicator E1', overcoming the spring force of the indicator return spring E2', so that the indicator E1' is at its maximum counterclockwise rotation position, indicating the closed state; at the same time, the rotating lever C on the normal side is at its maximum counterclockwise rotation position under the action of the main spring D, and its indicator linkage part C2 is not in contact with the indicating touch part E101 of the indicator E1. Under the action of the spring force of the indicator return spring E2, the indicator E1 is at its maximum counterclockwise rotation position, and its indicating linkage part E102 is limited by the flip-limit linkage shaft A101, so that the indicator E1 indicates the open state as shown in the attached figure. Figure 30 As shown.
[0079] When the operating system is in the double-open state: the mounting sleeve 301 is restricted to the double-open state. At this time, the indicator linkage part C2' of the rotating lever C' and the indicator touch part E101' of the indicator E1' are not in contact. The spring force of the indicator return spring E2' causes the indicator E1' to display the open state. At the same time, the indicator linkage part C2 of the rotating lever C and the indicator touch part E101 of the indicator E1 are not in contact. Under the spring force of the indicator return spring E2, the indicator E1 displays the open state as shown in the attached figure. Figure 31 As shown.
[0080] When the power supply on the normal operating side is in the closed state: the rotary lever C on the normal operating side is at its maximum clockwise rotation position under the action of the main spring D. Its indicator linkage part C2 is in contact with the indicator touch part E101 of the indicator E1, and overcomes the spring force of the indicator return spring E2, so that the indicator E1 is at its maximum clockwise rotation position, and the indicator E1 shows the closed state; at the same time, the rotary lever C' on the standby side is at its maximum clockwise rotation position under the action of the main spring D'. Its indicator linkage part C2' is not in contact with the indicator touch part E101 of the indicator E1. Under the action of the spring force of the indicator return spring E2', the indicator E1' is at its maximum clockwise rotation position. Its indicator linkage part E102' is limited by the flip limit linkage shaft A101', so that the indicator E1' shows the open state, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 32 As shown.
