Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of low-voltage power distribution, and in particular to a rotatable contact device of a circuit breaker and a low-voltage circuit breaker. Background Art

[0002] Circuit breakers are an important part of power distribution equipment, mainly used in industrial low-voltage power systems to connect and disconnect currents in power grid circuits and protect lines and power equipment from overload, undervoltage, short circuit, single-phase grounding and other faults. Circuit breakers are divided into high-voltage circuit breakers and low-voltage circuit breakers according to their scope of use. Low-voltage circuit breakers are also called automatic switches, commonly known as air switches, which also refer to low-voltage circuit breakers. They are electrical appliances that have both manual switch functions and can automatically perform loss of voltage, undervoltage, overload, and short-circuit protection.

[0003] A rotatable contact device is usually provided in a low-voltage circuit breaker to ensure the stability of the contact resistance when the low-voltage circuit breaker is working normally. However, most rotatable contact devices are not flexible enough, resulting in the risk of jamming when the circuit breaker is in the opening and closing states.

[0004] For example, Fig.11 The present invention is a schematic structural diagram of a rotatable contact device in the prior art, which includes a first bracket 23, a second bracket 24, a first moving contact 26, a second moving contact 27, a spring 29, a spring seat 20 and a shaft 28. The first moving contact 26 and the second moving contact 27 are rotatably embedded in a groove 231 of the first bracket 23 and a groove 241 of the second bracket 24 through the shaft 28. The outer sides of the first bracket 23 and the second bracket 24 are respectively equipped with a spring 29 and a spring seat 20, and then the first bracket 23 and the second bracket 24 are integrally embedded in the groove at the end of the shaft 28. The pressure of the spring 29 acts on the outer sides of the first bracket 23 and the second bracket 24, so that there is contact pressure between the first bracket 23 and the first moving contact 26, and between the second bracket 24 and the second moving contact 27.

[0005] The defects of the rotatable contact device 10 in the prior art are as follows: the pressure of the spring 29 acts on the outer sides of the first bracket 23 and the second bracket 24. Since the first bracket 23 and the second bracket 24 have a certain rigidity and there is an assembly gap between the first bracket 23 and the first moving contact 26 and between the second bracket 24 and the second moving contact 27, the action force of the spring 29 must first overcome the reaction force formed by the slight deformation of the first bracket 23 and the second bracket 24 due to the assembly gap, and then there is contact pressure between the first bracket 23 and the first moving contact 26 and between the second bracket 24 and the second moving contact 27. Due to the reaction force of the first bracket 23 and the second bracket 24, the contact pressure between the first bracket 23 and the first moving contact 26 and between the second bracket 24 and the second moving contact 27 is unstable, which affects the stability of the contact resistance. In addition, there is a large area of ​​contact between the first bracket 23 and the first moving contact 26 and between the second bracket 24 and the second moving contact 27, and the friction resistance is large. In severe cases, the circuit breaker cannot be closed and the circuit breaker fails. Summary of the invention

[0025] An embodiment of the present invention provides a rotatable contact device for a circuit breaker, comprising a moving contact 1 having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end is provided with a rotation center hole 11, and the second end is provided with a moving contact point; two brackets 2 are provided, and a positioning column for the rotation center hole 11 to be sleeved is provided between the opposite surfaces of the two brackets 2, and the first end forms a clearance fit with the opposite surfaces of the two brackets 2; and a clamping mechanism 4 is used to apply pressure to the first end.

[0026] Specifically, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the first end of the moving contact 1 is an end along the negative direction of the X-axis, the second end of the moving contact 1 is an end along the positive direction of the X-axis, the two brackets 2 are arranged along the Y-axis direction, and the two brackets 2 are arranged parallel to each other, the opposite surfaces of the two brackets 2 refer to the surfaces of the two brackets 2 facing each other respectively, and the two brackets 2 are fixedly installed at corresponding positions in the low-voltage circuit breaker housing. When the low-voltage circuit breaker is in a closed state, the moving contact on the second end of the moving contact 1 contacts the static contact on the static contact 100 in the low-voltage circuit breaker housing, and the current passes through the static contact 100, the moving contact 1 and the two brackets 2 in sequence, and then is connected to the external circuit through the wiring terminals on the release 200. When the current is overloaded, the release 200 triggers the operating mechanism 400 to perform an action, and the moving contact 1 rotates to separate the moving contact from the static contact. At the same time, the arc generated enters the arc extinguishing chamber 300 to extinguish the arc, completing the breaking operation.

[0027] It should be noted that the closed state of the low-voltage circuit breaker refers to the state when the moving contact and the static contact are in contact, the open state of the low-voltage circuit breaker refers to the state when the moving contact and the static contact are separated, the closing process of the low-voltage circuit breaker refers to the transition from the open state to the closed state, and the opening process of the low-voltage circuit breaker refers to the transition from the closed state to the open state.

[0028] In this optional embodiment, when the low-voltage circuit breaker is in the closed state, the moving contact on the second end of the moving contact 1 abuts against the static contact on the static contact 100. At this time, the static contact can apply a pressure F1 to the second end of the moving contact 1. At the same time, the clamping mechanism 4 can apply a pressure F2 to the first end of the moving contact 1. From the balance of forces, it can be seen that the combined force of the pressure F1 and the pressure F2 is a pressure F3. The pressure F3 can be converted into a force on the first end of the moving contact 1. The force is converted into a force of the rotating center hole 11 on the positioning column, thereby increasing the friction resistance between the inner wall of the rotating center hole 11 and the outer peripheral surface of the positioning column, so that the moving contact 1 and the two supports are in contact. The bracket 2 can be in reliable contact, which improves the stability of the moving contact and the static contact when they are in contact, and thus improves the stability of the low-voltage circuit breaker in the closed state. When the current overload causes the low-voltage circuit breaker to change from the closed state to the open state, the moving contact 1 rotates to separate the moving contact from the static contact, and because there is a clearance fit between the first end and the opposing surfaces of the two brackets 2, the rotating center hole 11 on the first end can rotate around the positioning column, so that the position of the opposing surfaces of the two brackets 2 does not have friction on the moving contact 1, and thus the moving contact 1 can rotate flexibly. Therefore, there is no problem of sticking of the moving contact 1 during the opening and closing process of the low-voltage circuit breaker, thereby improving the safety of the low-voltage circuit breaker.

[0029] Furthermore, the rotatable contact device of the circuit breaker also includes a rotating shell 5 and a rotating member 6. The positioning column includes two columnar bosses 21 abutting against each other. The two columnar bosses 21 are respectively arranged on opposite surfaces of the two brackets 2. The rotating shell 5 is rotatably connected to the positioning column through the rotating member 6. An open groove 51 is provided on one side of the rotating shell 5. The first end is arranged in the rotating shell 5, and the second end extends from the open groove 51.

[0030] In this optional embodiment, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the rotating shell 5 is configured as a shell structure with an inner cavity structure, and the rotating member 6 can be a rotating shaft. By setting a through hole at the center of the cylindrical boss 21, the opposite end surfaces of the two cylindrical bosses 21 abut against each other to form a positioning column with an axis along the Y-axis direction, so that the formed positioning column has an axial hole for being sleeved on the rotating member 6, and the rotating shell 5 is connected to the operating mechanism 400, so that the rotating shell 5 can rotate with the rotating member 6 as the center when the operating mechanism 400 performs an action, so as to Figure 1 For example, when the current is overloaded, the operating mechanism 400 executes the action, driving the rotating shell 5 to rotate counterclockwise with the rotating part 6 as the center, so that the open groove 51 of the rotating shell 5 supports the moving contact 1, and the second end of the moving contact 1 rotates counterclockwise with the positioning column on the first end as the center, thereby separating the moving contact from the static contact, and the positioning column and the rotating part 6 are coaxially arranged, so that the rotation process of the rotating shell 5 and the moving contact 1 does not interfere with each other, thereby improving the smoothness of the moving contact 1 during the opening and closing process.

[0031] Optionally, protrusions 511 are provided on the opposite surfaces of the opening groove 51, and a slot for the moving contact 1 to pass through is formed between the opposite surfaces of the two protrusions 511. A blocking portion 512 is provided on the bottom surface of the opening groove 51. When the moving contact abuts against the static contact, there is a distance between the blocking portion 512 and the moving contact 1.

[0032] In this optional embodiment, combined with Figure 7 As shown, the two protrusions 511 are integrally formed on the opposite surfaces of the opening groove 51, and the blocking portion 512 is also integrally formed on the bottom surface of the opening groove 51. The blocking portion 512 can support the moving contact 1, so that the moving contact 1 completes the rotation and disconnecting operation, and makes the distance between the two side surfaces of the slot slightly larger than the thickness of the moving contact 1. In other words, the two side surfaces of the moving contact 1, that is, the two side surfaces of the moving contact 1 along the Y-axis direction, do not contact the corresponding side surfaces of the slot, so that there is no friction resistance between the moving contact 1 and the rotating shell 5, so that the moving contact 1 can rotate more flexibly, and when the moving contact abuts the static contact, that is, when the low-voltage circuit breaker is in the closed state, there is a distance between the blocking portion 512 and the moving contact 1, so that the moving contact 1 has an overtravel, so that the moving contact 1 and the static contact 100 are in reliable contact.

[0033] Furthermore, a first shaft 3 is connected to the first end, the first shaft 3 is parallel to the positioning column, and the pressing mechanism 4 is used to apply pressure to the first shaft 3 .

[0034] In this optional embodiment, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the clamping mechanism 4 can be a spring-type clamping mechanism, a spring-type clamping mechanism, etc., so that pressure can always be applied to the first shaft 3 when the switch is in the opening and closing state.

[0035] Optionally, the clamping mechanism 4 includes a pressing plate 41, a spring 42 and a second shaft 43. A accommodating groove 54 is provided in the rotating shell 5. One end of the spring 42 abuts against the bottom end of the accommodating groove 54. The other end of the spring 42 extends out of the accommodating groove 54 and abuts against one end of the pressing plate 41. The other end of the pressing plate 41 is rotatably connected to the rotating shell 5 through the second shaft 43, and the pressing plate 41 abuts against the first shaft 3.

[0036] In this optional embodiment, combined with Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the two ends of the second shaft 43 are connected to the inner walls of the rotating shell 5 on both sides, and the corresponding end of the pressure plate 41 is integrally formed with a ring portion for the second shaft 43 to pass through. The spring 42 is in a compressed state in a natural state, so that when the switch is closed, the pressure plate 41 can always apply pressure F2 to the first shaft 3, so that the pressure F2 is converted into a force on the first end of the moving contact 1, and then the rotating center hole 11 applies a force to the positioning column, thereby increasing the force between the inner wall of the rotating center hole 11 and the outer peripheral surface of the positioning column, thereby increasing the friction resistance between the inner wall of the rotating center hole 11 and the outer peripheral surface of the positioning column, improving the reliability of the connection between the moving contact 1 and the two brackets 2, and then improving the stability of the moving contact and the static contact on the moving contact 1 when they are abutting in the closed state.

[0037] Furthermore, the bottom end of the accommodating groove 54 and the corresponding surface of the pressing plate 41 are both provided with convex portions, and the two ends of the spring 42 are respectively sleeved on the two convex portions.

[0038] In this optional embodiment, combined with Figure 8 As shown, the two protrusions can be integrally formed at the bottom end of the accommodating groove 54 and the corresponding surface of the pressure plate 41, respectively. By having the two ends of the spring 42 sleeved on the two protrusions, the two ends of the spring 42 can be limited, thereby improving the stability of the spring 42 when rotating with the rotating shell 5.

[0039] Optionally, a third shaft 53 is connected to the rotating shell 5 , the third shaft 53 is parallel to the first shaft 3 , and two ends of the third shaft 53 extend out of two side walls of the rotating shell 5 .

[0040] In this optional embodiment, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the third shaft 53 is provided along the Y-axis direction from the two side walls of the rotating shell 5, and the third shaft 53 is a driving shaft connected to the operating mechanism 400. Figure 1 For example, the execution action of the operating mechanism 400 can be applied to the third shaft 53, causing the rotating shell 5 to rotate counterclockwise to complete the process from closing to opening, and can also cause the rotating shell 5 to rotate clockwise to complete the process from opening to closing. It should be noted that the operating mechanism 400 adopts conventional technical means in this field, which will not be elaborated here.

[0041] Furthermore, a mounting foot 22 is provided at one end of the bracket 2 away from the columnar boss 21 , and the mounting foot 22 is used to be connected to the housing of the circuit breaker.

[0042] In this optional embodiment, combined with Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the mounting foot 22 can be integrally formed at one end of the bracket 2 away from the columnar boss 21, and the mounting foot 22 can be integrally formed or provided with a mounting hole, so that the bracket 2 can be installed inside the housing of the circuit breaker using bolts. In other optional embodiments, the parts of the two brackets 2 close to the mounting feet 22 can be bent toward each other so that they are welded together against each other, thereby integrating the corresponding parts of the two brackets 2 into one, further improving the structural stability of the two brackets 2.

[0043] Optionally, the rotating member 6 includes a fourth shaft 61 and a sleeve 62. Side shell portions 52 are provided on both sides of the rotating shell 5.
