DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0022] Embodiment 1, refer to Figure 1-Figure 10A low-voltage circuit breaker comprises a circuit breaker body 1, a terminal 12 and a guide rail 13. A movable buckle 11 is arranged at the rear side of the circuit breaker body 1. The circuit breaker body 1 is slidably engaged with the guide rail 13 through the movable buckle 11. An installation cavity 10 is arranged inside the circuit breaker body 1. A wiring port for inserting the terminal 12 is arranged on the side wall of the circuit breaker body 1. The wiring port is communicated with the installation cavity 10. A conductive spring 62 and a conductive terminal 61 are arranged in the installation cavity 10. The conductive spring 62 is fixedly installed in the installation cavity 10. The conductive terminal 61 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the installation cavity 10. The conductive terminal 61 is matched with the terminal 12 to ensure that when the terminal 12 is inserted into the wiring port of the circuit breaker body 1, it can form good electrical contact with the conductive terminal 61. The conductive terminal 61 and the conductive spring 62 are electrically conductive. The conductive spring 62 has certain elasticity and conductivity. When the conductive terminal 61 contacts the conductive spring 62, the elasticity of the spring can ensure that the two maintain a good contact pressure, thereby ensuring the reliability of the electrical connection. The conductive spring 62 is electrically connected to the fixed contact of the circuit breaker body 1. The fixed contact is an important component inside the circuit breaker body 1. It is connected to the main circuit of the circuit breaker body 1 and plays a role in connecting or disconnecting the circuit. When the conductive spring 62 is well connected to the fixed contact, the entire circuit forms a path, and the current can pass freely. When the external circuit is connected to the conductive terminal 61 through the wiring terminal 12, the current can flow through the main circuit of the circuit breaker body 1 through the conductive terminal 61, the conductive spring 62 and the fixed contact, thereby realizing the circuit connection or disconnection function, and also includes: Limiting clamping assembly: The limiting clamping assembly is arranged inside and outside the installation cavity 10, and the limiting clamping assembly is used to connect the circuit breaker body 1 and the wiring terminal 12, and can control the power-on state of the circuit breaker body 1; Blocking component: The blocking component is arranged outside the circuit breaker body 1, and blocks the wiring port according to the state of the limit clamping component; Clamping assembly: The clamping assembly is arranged in the blocking assembly, and the clamping assembly is used to clamp and fix the wiring terminals 12 of different specifications.
[0023] Furthermore, a lever 111 is fixedly installed in the groove at the lower end of the movable buckle 11, and the front end of the lever 111 extends beyond the front side of the circuit breaker body 1. By pressing the lever 111, the movable buckle 11 can be unlocked to disconnect it from the guide rail 13. It can be operated even in a small space, which is more convenient than the prior art.
[0024] The limiting clamping assembly includes a pull rod 2, a pull plate 21, a limiting pin 22, a connecting bolt 23, a positioning plate 5, a push plate 51 and a movable block 6. The positioning plate 5 is fixedly arranged inside the installation cavity 10, and the push plate 51 is slidably connected to the installation cavity 10. The positioning plate 5 and the push plate 51 are cooperatively arranged. The rear end of the connecting bolt 23 is fixedly connected to the limiting ring 231. After the connecting bolt 23 passes through the positioning plate 5, it is clamped with the push plate 51 through the limiting ring 231. The positioning plate 5 and the push plate 51 are elastically connected by a spring 52. The positioning plate 5 is provided with a mounting hole 521 for the spring 52 to pass through, and the spring 52 is sleeved on the outer side of the connecting bolt 23.
[0025] One end of the pull plate 21 is sleeved on the front end of the connecting bolt 23, and the other end is rotatably connected with the pull rod 2 through the limit pin 22. A slot for the pull plate 21 to pass through is provided on the circuit breaker body 1. The end of the pull plate 21 extends beyond the front side of the circuit breaker body 1. By pulling the pull rod 2, the position of the connecting bolt 23 can be adjusted through the pull plate 21, and then the position of the push plate 51 can be adjusted.
[0026] It should be noted that, since the pull rod 2 and the pull plate 21 are rotatably connected via the limit pin 22 , by applying force at different points, one can choose to pull the push plate 51 on one side or pull the push plates 51 on both sides at the same time.
[0027] The outer wall of the push plate 51 is fixedly connected with an upper rack 7, and the side wall of the movable block 6 is fixedly connected with a lower rack 71. The upper rack 7 and the lower rack 71 are arranged on the same side, and a gear 72 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the mounting cavity 10 facing the upper rack 7. The upper rack 7 and the gear 72, as well as the lower rack 71 and the gear 72 are all meshedly connected. When the push plate 51 moves, the upper rack 7 moves accordingly. Driven by the gear 72, the lower rack 71 and the upper rack 7 move toward each other. The movement of the lower rack 71 will drive the movable block 6 to move. The conductive terminal 61 is fixedly set on the movable block 6, and the conductive terminal 61 will move with the movable block 6.
[0028] It should be noted that, in the initial state, the side wall of the conductive terminal 61 is in contact with the conductive spring 62, and at this time, the connecting terminal 12 is in contact with the conductive terminal 61 under the action of the push plate 51 (refer to 5 and Fig. 9 ), at this time, the internal circuit of the circuit breaker is connected, and when the pull rod 2 is pulled, the wiring terminal 12 can enter and exit the installation cavity 10 through the wiring port, and at this time, there is a gap between the side wall of the conductive terminal 61 and the conductive spring 62 (refer to Figure 7 and Fig.10 ), at this time the internal circuit of the circuit breaker is disconnected.
[0029] In this embodiment, in the initial state (circuit connected), the conductive terminal 61 is in contact with the conductive spring 62: in the initial state, the side wall of the conductive terminal 61 is in close contact with the conductive spring 62. Since the conductive spring 62 has certain elasticity and conductivity, this contact ensures a good electrical connection between the two. At this time, the spring 52 applies a forward thrust to the push plate 51, and this thrust helps to maintain the contact between the push plate 51 and the terminal 12, as well as the contact between the conductive terminal 61 and the conductive spring 62.
[0030] Pull the pull rod 2 (circuit disconnected): When the user pulls the pull rod 2, the pull rod 2 is engaged with the pull plate 21 through the rotation of the limit pin 22, so that the pull plate 21 moves accordingly. The movement of the pull plate 21 will drive the connecting bolt 23 and the push plate 51 to move together. The movement of the push plate 51 will compress the spring 52 and change the position of the push plate 51 in the installation cavity 10. This movement process will release the thrust of the push plate 51 on the terminal 12, allowing the terminal 12 to enter and exit the installation cavity 10 through the wiring port when needed.
[0031] When the push plate 51 moves, the upper rack 7 will also move accordingly. The movement of the upper rack 7 drives the lower rack 71 and the upper rack 7 to move toward each other through the transmission of the gear 72. The movement of the lower rack 71 will drive the movable block 6 to move, and the conductive terminal 61 is fixedly arranged on the movable block 6. Therefore, the conductive terminal 61 will also move with the movable block 6. As the conductive terminal 61 moves, the contact between its side wall and the conductive spring 62 is broken, and a gap is generated between the two. This gap causes the circuit to be disconnected, and the current can no longer flow through the main circuit of the circuit breaker body 1 through the conductive terminal 61, the conductive spring 62 and the fixed contact.
[0032] When the circuit breaker needs to be replaced, after disconnecting the power supply, the wiring terminal 12 can be unlocked by pulling the pull rod 2. After pulling out the wiring terminal 12, the pull rod 2 is released, and then the movable buckle 11 can be unlocked by pressing the lever 111 to disconnect it from the guide rail 13. The old circuit breaker is removed from the guide rail 13, and a new circuit breaker is installed. By pulling the pull rod 2, the new wiring terminal 12 is inserted into the wiring port of the circuit breaker body 1, and then the pull rod 2 is released. At this time, with the cooperation of the spring 52, the gear 72 and the rack (upper rack 7 and lower rack 71), the wiring terminal 12 can be limited by the conductive terminal 61 and the push plate 51, so that the circuit breaker can be quickly replaced.
[0033] By pulling the pull rod 2 and pressing the lever 111, the terminal 12 and the movable buckle 11 can be quickly unlocked to realize the rapid replacement of the circuit breaker, which changes the wiring method of the existing circuit breaker. There is no need to remove the bolts, and the replacement can be easily completed even in a small space in the cabinet. At the same time, during the wiring process, the contact state between the conductive terminal 61 and the conductive spring 62 can also be changed, which ensures that the internal circuit is in a disconnected state before the new circuit breaker is installed and the circuit connection is re-established, further enhancing the safety of the operation.
[0034] Example 2, refer to Figure 4-Figure 10 The blocking assembly includes a sliding block 3 and a fixed baffle 4. The lower side wall of the sliding block 3 is fixedly connected with a connecting plate 31. The sliding block 3 is fixedly connected to the upper side wall of the push plate 51 through the connecting plate 31. When the push plate 51 moves, the sliding block 3 will move accordingly under the drive of the connecting plate 31. The fixed baffle 4 is fixedly connected to the circuit breaker body 1 and is arranged around the wiring port.
[0035] Furthermore, a groove is provided on one side of the sliding block 3 facing the wiring port to fix the wiring terminal 12. The cross section of the fixed baffle 4 is U-shaped, and the side wall of the sliding block 3 is slidably fitted with the inner wall of the fixed baffle 4. The sliding block 3 and the fixed baffle 4 in the initial state cooperate to press the wiring terminal 12 on both sides (refer to Fig. 9 ), at this time, under the action of the spring 52, the connection port can be blocked by the cooperation of the sliding block 3 and the fixed baffle 4, reducing the probability of water vapor entering. At the same time, the upper end of the terminal 12 can be limited on both sides to avoid the terminal 12 from shaking easily when adjusting the position of the circuit breaker. The gap between the sliding block 3 and the fixed baffle 4 when the pull rod 2 is pulled is sufficient for the terminal 12 to pass through (refer to Fig.10 ), ensuring that the wiring terminal 12 can be smoothly inserted into the mounting cavity 10 at this time.
[0036] In this embodiment, when the push plate 51 moves inside the circuit breaker, the sliding block 3 will move accordingly, and the fixed baffle 4 is fixedly connected to the circuit breaker body 1 and is arranged around the wiring port to form a protective frame.
[0037] Initial state (refer to Fig. 9), in the initial state, the sliding block 3 and the fixed baffle 4 are tightly matched to jointly press the terminal 12 on both sides. This pressing not only helps to fix the terminal 12, but also prevents the terminal 12 from shaking or falling off when adjusting the position of the circuit breaker or performing other maintenance activities. The shaking terminal 12 may cause poor electrical connection or damage, thereby affecting the normal operation of the circuit breaker. At the same time, it also forms an effective blockage, reducing the risk of external factors such as water vapor entering the wiring port. This blocking mechanism is essential for protecting the internal electrical connection of the circuit breaker and preventing corrosion. Contaminants such as water vapor and dust may cause poor electrical connection or short circuit, thereby affecting the performance and reliability of the circuit breaker. At the same time, it can also prevent staff from accidentally touching it, reducing the risk of electric shock. A groove is provided on the side of the sliding block 3 facing the wiring port. The shape and size of the groove match the terminal 12, ensuring that the terminal 12 can be stably fixed when inserted.
[0038] When the lever 2 is pulled (refer to Fig.10 ), when the user needs to insert or unplug the terminal 12, the pull rod 2 is pulled, and this action drives the push plate 51 (and the sliding block 3 connected thereto) to move. As the sliding block 3 moves, the gap between it and the fixed baffle 4 will gradually increase. This gap is large enough for the terminal 12 to pass through, thereby allowing the user to smoothly insert the terminal 12 into the installation cavity 10 or unplug it therefrom.
[0039] In this process, due to the action of the spring 52, the push plate 51 (and the sliding block 3) will try to return to the initial position after moving. However, since the pull rod 2 is still being pulled, they will remain in a temporary position. Once the terminal 12 is inserted or pulled out, the user can release the pull rod 2. At this time, the spring 52 will push the push plate 51 (and the sliding block 3) back to the initial position, and form a tight fit with the fixed baffle 4 again to block the wiring port.
[0040] In summary, the design of the blocking component not only helps prevent poor electrical connection or damage caused by shaking or falling off of the terminal 12, but also reduces the impact of external factors on the wiring port, while also preventing electric shock and improving the overall safety of the circuit breaker.
[0041] Example 3, refer to Figure 5-Figure 15The clamping assembly includes an airbag 8, a fixed slider 41 fixedly connected to the end of the fixed baffle 4 facing the sliding block 3, a sliding cavity 32, an air guide tube 81 and an air storage cavity 9 arranged inside the sliding block 3, a placement groove is arranged inside the groove on the sliding block 3, and the airbag 8 is fixedly arranged in the placement groove, and a sliding groove 33 matching the fixed slider 41 is opened on the side wall of the sliding block 3, and a sealing plug 91 is installed on the fixed slider 41 located inside the sliding cavity 32, one end of the air guide tube 81 passes through the side wall of the sliding block 3 and the airbag 8, and the other end passes through the side wall of the fixed slider 41 and the sealing plug 91, and the sealing plug 91 is far away from the airbag 8. 1 has two accordion covers 92 fixedly connected to the side wall thereof, the ends of the accordion covers 92 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding block 3, the accordion covers 92 are located on the outside of the port of the air guide tube 81, the air storage chamber 9 is surrounded by the sealing plug 91, the two accordion covers 92 and the inner wall of the sliding block 3, when the sliding block 3 moves with the push plate 51, since the positions of the fixed slider 41 and the sealing plug 91 are fixed, the space inside the air storage chamber 9 will also change at this time, specifically, the accordion covers 92 in the initial state are in a compressed state, and the internal space of the air storage chamber 9 is small, when the pull rod 2 is pulled, the accordion covers 92 are in an extended state, and the internal space of the air storage chamber 9 is large.
[0042] It should be noted that the sealing plug 91, the bellows cover 92 and the inner cavity of the sliding block 3 are slidingly sealed to prevent gas leakage. The cross-section of the airbag 8 is U-shaped. When the pull rod 2 is pulled, the airbag 8 is in an unsaturated state, which reduces the friction on the airbag 8. The end of the air guide tube 81 close to the groove is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding block 3, and the end of the air guide tube 81 away from the groove is slidingly sealed to the fixed slider 41 and the sealing plug 91. The end of the air guide tube 81 away from the groove is always inside the air storage chamber 9. The air storage chamber 9 It is connected to the airbag 8 through an air guide tube 81, so when the internal space of the air storage chamber 9 changes, the state of the airbag 8 will also change accordingly. Pull the pull rod 2, the space of the air storage chamber 9 becomes larger, and the airbag 8 shrinks. Release the pull rod 2 and gradually restore the initial state. The space of the air storage chamber 9 becomes smaller, and the airbag 8 swells. The setting of the swollen airbag 8 and the spring 52 can better match the wiring terminals 12 of different specifications, ensure the fixing effect of the wiring terminals 12, and greatly reduce the occurrence of poor electrical connection or damage due to terminal shaking.
[0043] In this embodiment, the initial state: before the circuit breaker is operated, the clamping assembly is in the initial state, at which time the sliding stopper 3 and the fixed stopper 4 are tightly matched to press the connection terminal 12 on both sides.
[0044] The airbag 8 is U-shaped and fixed in the placement groove inside the groove of the sliding block 3. Since the accordion cover 92 is in a compressed state at this time, the internal space of the air storage chamber 9 is small, so the airbag 8 is inflated and bulged, and is in close contact with the terminal 12 to achieve preliminary fixation.
[0045] Pull the pull rod 2: When the user needs to insert or unplug the terminal 12, the pull rod 2 will be pulled. This action will drive the push plate 51 and the sliding block 3 connected thereto to move. Due to the design of the slide groove 33 between the fixed slider 41 and the sliding block 3, and the sliding sealing connection between the sealing plug 91 and the inner cavity of the sliding block 3, when the sliding block 3 moves, the positions of the fixed slider 41 and the sealing plug 91 remain fixed. With the movement of the sliding block 3, the accordion cover 92 gradually extends, and the internal space of the air storage chamber 9 becomes larger. Since the air storage chamber 9 is connected to the air bag 8 through the air guide tube 81, the increase in the internal space of the air storage chamber 9 causes the gas in the air bag 8 to be extracted, and the air bag 8 shrinks.
[0046] As the airbag 8 contracts, the gap between the sliding block 3 and the fixed baffle 4 gradually increases, providing sufficient space for the insertion or removal of the terminal 12. The user can smoothly insert the terminal 12 into the installation cavity 10 or remove it from it without worrying about the operation being affected by the excessive friction resistance of the airbag 8.
[0047] Restore to the initial state: After the operation is completed, release the pull rod 2. At this time, the spring 52 will push the push plate 51 and the sliding block 3 back to the initial position. As the sliding block 3 moves, the accordion cover 92 is gradually compressed, and the internal space of the air storage chamber 9 becomes smaller. Due to the connectivity between the air storage chamber 9 and the airbag 8, the reduction in the internal space of the air storage chamber 9 causes the airbag 8 to be re-inflated and bulged. The bulged airbag 8 works together with the spring 52 to firmly fix the terminal 12 again.
[0048] The clamping assembly can better match the wiring terminals 12 of different specifications through the inflation and contraction of the airbag 8 and the compression and release of the spring 52, thereby ensuring the stable fixation of the wiring terminals 12. The user only needs to pull the pull rod 2 to easily insert or remove the wiring terminals 12 without using additional tools or force. The design of the clamping assembly effectively reduces the risk of poor electrical connection or damage caused by the shaking of the wiring terminals 12, thereby improving the overall safety and reliability of the circuit breaker.
