The embodiments disclosed this time can be considered to be illustrative in all aspects and not restrictive. The scope of the present invention is not limited by the description of the following embodiments, but is only shown by the scope of the claims, and includes all modifications with the same meaning as the scope of the claims and within the scope of the claims.

[0033] The structure of a monostable permanent magnet type fast-breaking high-voltage vacuum circuit breaker of the present invention is described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 3 The front cross-sectional, left and top structural schematic diagrams of a monostable permanent magnet type fast-breaking high-voltage vacuum circuit breaker embodiment of the present invention are shown, including at least one set of permanent magnet operating mechanism 2, insulating rod unit 3 and arc extinguishing chamber unit 4 installed on a fixed support plate 1. The permanent magnet operating mechanism 2, insulating rod unit 3 and arc extinguishing chamber unit 4 of this embodiment are arranged in three groups. The permanent magnet operating mechanism 2, insulating rod unit 3 and arc extinguishing chamber unit 4 of each group are connected from top to bottom.

[0035] The permanent magnetic operating mechanism 2 includes a first support 5 mounted on a fixed support plate 1, the first support 5 includes two horizontal support plates spaced apart at upper and lower positions, the two horizontal support plates are respectively fixed to the fixed support plate 1 by bolts, an annular outer magnetic yoke 6 is mounted on the first support 5, and the two horizontal support plates clamp the upper and lower ends of the outer magnetic yoke 6. The inner cavity of the outer magnetic yoke 6 is equipped with a coil 7, a static iron core 8 and a permanent magnet 9, wherein the coil is arranged in the middle of the inner cavity wall of the outer magnetic yoke 6, the static iron core 8 is located at the lower part of the inner cavity of the outer magnetic yoke 6, and the permanent magnet 9 is arranged between the inner cavity wall of the outer magnetic yoke 6 and the outer wall of the static iron core 8.

[0036] A moving iron core 10 is inserted into the inner cavity of the coil 7 and the inner cavity of the outer magnetic yoke 6, and the moving iron core 10 can slide up and down along the inner cavity of the coil 7 and the inner cavity of the outer magnetic yoke 6. A moving iron core pressing block 11 is connected to the upper part of the moving iron core 10, and the outer edge of the moving iron core pressing block 11 is close to the upper wall of the inner cavity of the outer magnetic yoke 6. An annular boss 12 is provided in the middle of the inner cavity of the outer magnetic yoke 6, and the moving iron core pressing block 11 is located above the annular boss 12. The coil 7 is provided below the annular boss 12, and the coil 7 is located between the inner wall of the outer magnetic yoke 6 and the moving iron core pressing block 11. The above-mentioned outer magnetic yoke 6, moving iron core 10, moving iron core pressing block 11 and static iron core 8 are all made of excellent magnetic conductive materials. In this embodiment, electrical pure iron is preferably used as the material of the above components. A trip spring 13 is installed between the moving iron core pressing block 11 and the lower horizontal support plate of the first support 5 . The moving iron core pressing block 11 can slide downward along with the moving iron core 10 , thereby compressing the trip spring 13 .

[0037] The insulating rod unit 3 includes an insulating rod 14. The lower end of the moving iron core 10 passes through the outer yoke 6 and is connected to the upper end of the insulating rod 14. The lower end of the insulating rod 14 is connected to the moving contact 15 of the arc extinguishing chamber unit 4. An insert 16 is provided at the lower end of the insulating rod 14. An insulating rod spring 19, a bolt 18 and a bottom cover 17 are assembled in the inner cavity of the insert 16. The bottom cover 17 and the insert 16 are engaged together by threads, and the lower end of the insulating rod spring 19 abuts against the bottom cover 17.

[0038] The overtravel s of the circuit breaker is 2-2.5 mm, and the travel s satisfies the formula: s = 1 / 2*at2, a = f / m; where a is acceleration; t is time; f is the pressure on the spring; and m is the mass of all moving objects driven by the moving iron core 10. When s decreases, t also decreases.

[0039] The arc extinguishing chamber unit 4 includes an arc extinguishing chamber 20 and a moving contact 15 and a stationary contact end 21 arranged in the inner cavity of the arc extinguishing chamber 20.

[0040] During use, when the circuit breaker of the present invention is closed, the coil 7 of the permanent magnetic operating mechanism 2 is energized, and the moving iron core 10 and the moving iron core pressing block 11 drive the insulating pull rod unit 3 to move downward under the action of the electromagnetic force, compressing the opening spring 13, and at the same time driving the moving contact 15 and the static contact 21 of the arc extinguishing chamber unit 4 to close and continue to compress the insulating pull rod spring 19 to complete the closing. At this time, the magnetic force generated by the permanent magnet 9 keeps the moving iron core 10 and the moving iron core pressing block 11 in the closed position; when the circuit breaker of the present invention is opened, the coil 7 of the permanent magnetic operating mechanism 2 is energized with reverse current, and the moving iron core 10 and the moving iron core pressing block 11 overcome the permanent magnetic force under the action of the electromagnetic force. Under the joint action of the opening spring 13 and the insulating pull rod spring 19, the moving iron core 10, the moving iron core pressing block 11, and the insulating pull rod unit 3 move upward to complete the opening. After adopting the above design scheme, the opening time of the circuit breaker of the present invention is between 4.2-4.8ms, which fully meets the design requirements.

[0041] The opening time is the time from when the opening coil receives the signal to when the moving contact 15 and the static contact 21 of the arc extinguishing chamber unit 4 are completely separated. The main factors affecting the opening time in the present invention are the insulating pull rod spring 19, the opening spring 13, the coil 7, the power supply voltage, the outer magnetic yoke 6, the moving iron core 10, the moving iron core block 11 and the static iron core 8. By making the outer magnetic yoke 6, the moving iron core 10, the moving iron core block 11 and the static iron core 8 all of which are made of high-quality magnetic conductive materials, they are stable and reliable in use, without the risk of demagnetization, and the opening speed is improved, and the opening time is reduced; in use, by increasing the initial pressure of the insulating pull rod spring 19 and the opening spring 13, the pressure f between the moving contact 15 and the static contact 21 is increased, the acceleration a can be increased, and thus the time opening time t can be reduced; the present invention designs the initial pressures of the insulating pull rod spring 19 and the opening spring 13 to be 1900N and 800N respectively. The weight of each component of the moving part of the moving iron core 10 of the present invention is reduced as much as possible; the controller output voltage (380V) is increased, and a suitable coil wire diameter is selected to increase the coil ampere-turns.

[0042] The monostable permanent magnet type fast-breaking high-voltage vacuum circuit breaker of the present invention is designed through the above-mentioned comprehensive design, by increasing the initial pressure of the insulating pull rod spring 19 and the opening spring 13, reasonable coil wire diameter and ampere-turns, such as using an electromagnetic coil with a wire diameter of 0.3 and a number of turns of 980, using electrical pure iron for the outer magnetic yoke 6, the moving iron core 10, the moving iron core block 11 and the static iron core 8, and reasonably setting the operation pulse duration and the controller power supply voltage, such as the operation pulse duration of 100ms and the controller power supply voltage of 380V, the circuit breaker body opening time is controlled within 5ms, and fast opening is achieved. The present invention is different from the existing circuit breaker design based on soft magnetic technology, which simply increases the force value of the opening spring and the insulating pull rod spring. The present invention can achieve fast opening while taking into account reliability and mechanical life through the above-mentioned design.

[0043] The above-described embodiments are merely descriptions of preferred implementations of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present invention by ordinary engineering and technical personnel in the field shall fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
