When describing the embodiments of the present invention in detail, for the sake of convenience, the cross-sectional diagrams showing the device structure will not be partially enlarged according to the general scale, and the schematic diagrams are only examples, which should not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, in actual production, the three-dimensional dimensions of length, width and depth should be included.

[0029] Example 1

[0030] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 2 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, provides a circuit breaker life detection device, the device comprising: a driving unit 100, including a driving component 101, and a moving component 102 arranged on the driving component 101;

[0031] The installation unit 200 includes a clamping assembly 201 disposed on the moving assembly 102 .

[0032] Among them, the driving component 101 includes a sleeve 101a, a motor 101b arranged inside the sleeve 101a, a rotating rod 101c arranged at the output end of the motor 101b, a gear 101d arranged at the top of the rotating rod 101c, a top shell 101e rotatingly arranged on the top of the gear 101d, and a buffer pad 101f arranged on the top of the top shell 101e. The rotating rod 101c and the gear 101d are driven by the motor 101b so that they can be close to each other for fixed clamping.

[0033] Furthermore, the moving component 102 includes a moving card strip 102a, a moving block 102b slidably set on the moving card strip 102a, a base 102c set between the moving blocks 102b, a support plate 102d set on the top of the base 102c, and a Z-shaped tooth plate 102e set on one side of the base 102c, and the Z-shaped tooth plate 102e is meshed and connected with the gear 101d. The gear 101d is used to make the Z-shaped tooth plate 102e start to move so that the moving block 102b and the moving card strip 102a are close to the base 102c for clamping, and the driving can continuously adjust the clamping distance to reach a suitable size.

[0034] During use, when the circuit breaker is tested and fixed, the circuit breaker is placed inside the main clamping block 201f, and the bottom motor 101b drives the rotating rod 101c to rotate with the gear 101d, and the gear 101d drives the moving clamping strip 102a to move the moving block 102b closer along the moving clamping strip 102a, and the support plate 102d and the main rod 201a also move closer to fix the circuit breaker inside the main clamping block 201f, and complete the electrical connection with the circuit breaker during the clamping process.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Reference Figure 3 - Figure 4 , which is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that: the clamping assembly 201 includes a main rod 201a, and the main rod 201a is arranged on the support plate 102d, and a fixed block 201b is arranged on the top of the main rod 201a, and the fixing block 201b is used to stably support the entire clamp.

[0037] Furthermore, an electric push rod 201c is provided on one side of the fixed block 201b, and a linkage shaft 201e is provided on the outer diameter of the output end of the electric push rod 201c, which is fixed by the fixed block 201b on the main rod 201a. The linkage shaft 201e is moved by the electric push rod 201c and the switch of the circuit breaker can be detected.

[0038] Furthermore, a main clamping block 201f is provided on one side of the main rod 201a, and a secondary clamping block 201g is slidably provided inside the main clamping block 201f, and the secondary clamping block 201g is slidably connected to the linkage shaft 201e. The circuit breaker can be tightly clamped and fixed through the cooperation of the clamping block 201f and the secondary clamping block 201g.

[0039] Furthermore, a limiting rod 2011 is provided inside the main clamping block 201f, and the limiting rod 2011 is slidably connected to the auxiliary clamping block 201g, so that the main clamping block 201f and the auxiliary clamping block 201g are stabilized when sliding through the limiting rod 2011.

[0040] During use, when the circuit breaker is tested, the electric push rod 201c works to move the linkage shaft 201e so that the auxiliary clamping block 201g moves downward to fix the circuit breaker for secondary fixation. The circuit breaker is fixed while the electrical connection of the circuit breaker is also completed, so that the staff does not need to disassemble the secondary wiring of the circuit breaker or consider accessing the communication network. The circuit breaker can be tested only by the opening and closing control circuit, the protection CT secondary circuit and the current sensor.

[0041] The remaining structures are the same as those of Example 1.

[0042] Example 3

[0043] Reference Figure 1 - Figure 6, which is the third embodiment of the present invention, this embodiment proposes a circuit breaker life detection method based on the first and second embodiments: comprising: a test unit 300, comprising a support component 301 arranged on the driving component 101, a warning light 302 arranged on the support component 301, and a display screen 303 arranged on the support component 301, the warning light 302 can warn of the detection result, and the display screen 303 can display the detection result data.

[0044] Compared with Example 2, further, a current sensor 304 is arranged on the top of the auxiliary clamping block 201g, a trip controller HQ306 and a closing controller TQ307 are arranged on the bottom of the current sensor 304, a transmission line 305 is arranged on the other side of the current sensor 304, and the transmission line 305 is electrically connected to the test unit 300. The closing controller TQ307 and the trip controller HQ306 are quickly connected to the circuit breaker for detection by fixing the circuit breaker with the auxiliary clamping block 201g.

[0045] Among them, the support assembly 301 includes a detection box body 301a, a horizontal frame 301b arranged on the detection box body 301a, a vertical frame 301c arranged on the horizontal frame 301b, and a bottom plate 301d arranged on the top of the vertical frame 301c. The internal support of the equipment is performed by the horizontal frame 301b and the vertical frame 301c inside the detection box body 301a.

[0046] During use, when the circuit breaker is tested, the circuit breaker is placed inside the main clamping block 201f. The main clamping block 201f and the auxiliary clamping block 201g are combined to fix the circuit breaker. When the auxiliary clamping block 201g moves downward, the internal opening controller HQ306 and closing controller TQ307 are clamped into the wire connection of the circuit breaker for quick connection. The current sensor 304 on the top of the auxiliary clamping block 201g is used for detection and induction. 5 The collected data is transmitted to the support component 301 and displayed on the display screen 303. When the current is detected in the control loop inside the circuit breaker, the CT side current measurement is turned on. When the current is a fault current, the equivalent times are calculated by the algorithm and displayed on the LCD display screen 303 after accumulation. Normal load current is not recorded or calculated. The equivalent times can be recorded during inspection. When the equivalent times value reaches the warning state, an alarm can be issued, and then it is recommended to conduct a dynamic resistance test or directly replace the arc contact.
