Description

[0002] Low-voltage switches are one of the most widely used and important electrical equipment in low-voltage power distribution systems. There are many types of them. Among them, air switches are mainly used for manual circuit breaking and have short-circuit and overload protection functions; AC contactors and other electrical appliances can form an electrical control system with an arc extinguishing chamber, which can provide overload protection but not short-circuit protection; knife switches can only disconnect small load currents. The most commonly used are knife isolating switches, which have obvious disconnection points and are also manually operated. There are also some that combine knife isolating switches with fuses or combine them into one.

[0003] In the existing field of low-voltage switch protection technology, the low-voltage switch is usually directly installed in the electrical cabinet, and there is no protective device on the outer end of the low-voltage switch. When the door of the electrical cabinet is open, external factors can easily damage the low-voltage switch, causing huge losses and posing certain safety hazards. At the same time, heat is easily accumulated around the low-voltage switch and cannot be quickly discharged. Over time, the internal temperature of the low-voltage switch will suddenly increase, affecting the performance of the low-voltage switch. In severe cases, the low-voltage switch will be damaged. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0026] Reference Figure 1-Figure 6 A low-voltage switch with a protective mechanism comprises a base plate 1 for mounting a low-voltage switch 2, a first drive motor 3 is fixedly mounted on one side of the base plate 1, a drive bevel gear 4 is matched with the output end of the first drive motor 3, two sets of center shafts 14 are rotatably mounted on one side of the base plate 1, and driven bevel gears 15 meshingly connected with the drive bevel gear 4 are fixedly mounted on the opposite ends of the two sets of center shafts 14, the transmission efficiency between the gears is high, and the application range is wide, and the service life is long. A support block 5 is welded on one side of the base plate 1, and a screw rod 6 matched with the support block 5 is fixedly mounted on the drive bevel gear 4.

[0027] A protective cover 7 for protecting the low-voltage switch 2 is slidably installed on the other side of the base plate 1, and a threaded plate 8 matched with the screw rod 6 is fixedly installed on the protective cover 7. The screw rod 6 and the threaded plate 8 have relatively little wear during transmission, thereby extending the service life of the components and reducing the frequency and cost of maintenance and replacement of components. The transmission relationship between the two has good self-locking performance and will not fall due to gravity. The movement is stable, and the rubber pad at the contact plate 11 can achieve a noise reduction effect. The first drive motor 3, the screw rod 6 and the threaded plate 8 are on the same vertical horizontal line.

[0028] A contact plate 11 is fixedly installed on the other side of the base plate 1, and a rubber cushion is fixedly installed on the contact plate 11. The rubber cushion is a highly elastic polymer material with reversible deformation. It is elastic and can be deformed under the action of external force. It can return to its original state after the external force is removed, which can play a shock-absorbing role. It can not only reduce the noise generated, but also protect the contact surface between the contact plate 11 and the protective cover 7, thereby improving the service life of parts. A cooling fan 12 is installed on the contact plate 11, and a filter plate 13 is slidably mounted on the contact plate 11. A connecting mechanism for fixing the filter plate 13 is provided on the contact plate 11.

[0029] The connecting mechanism includes a support cylinder 16 welded on the contact plate 11, and a pressing cylinder 17 is slidably installed in the support cylinder 16. The pressing cylinder 17 can only slide in the support cylinder 16 in the up and down directions and will not rotate. Two groups of contact blocks 18 are welded in the pressing cylinder 17. The two groups of contact blocks 18 are ladder-shaped structures with opposite directions. A support column 19 is welded on the contact plate 11, and a connecting column 20 is slidably installed in the support column 19. In order to improve the smoothness of the sliding of the wedge block 21 in the connecting column 20, lubricating oil can be added between the two before the combination, which can also reduce wear and extend the service life of the parts. The pressing cylinder 17 is concentrically arranged with the connecting column 20, and the support column 19 and A wedge block 21 that contacts the resistance block 18 is slidably installed in the connecting column 20. The contact surfaces of the wedge block 21 and the resistance block 18 are relatively flat to reduce the friction between the two and improve the smoothness of movement. If necessary, lubricating oil can be added between the two. The wedge block 21 is a Z-shaped structure. A strong spring 22 is connected between the connecting column 20 and the pressing cylinder 17. The strong spring 22 is a mechanical part that uses elasticity to work. It is made of elastic material and deforms under the action of external force. It returns to its original state after the external force is removed. The strong spring 22 here always has an upward extension force to reset the connecting column 20, so that the connection between the filter plate 13 and the resistance plate 11 is more secure.

[0030] A gantry 9 is fixedly mounted on the protective cover 7, and rectangular through holes 23 are provided at both ends of the gantry 9. In order to avoid collision between the driven gear 28 and the gantry 9, the movable range of the driven gear 28 is increased by providing the rectangular through holes 23. A second drive motor 10 is fixedly mounted on the gantry 9, and a heat dissipation mechanism for dissipating heat is provided on the protective cover 7.

[0031] The heat dissipation mechanism includes a transmission plate 25 slidably mounted on the protective cover 7, and transmission racks 26 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the transmission plate 25. A transmission gear 27 meshing with the transmission rack 26 is rotatably mounted on the protective cover 7. The two groups of transmission gears 27 are fan-shaped structures. When one group of transmission gears 27 contacts the transmission rack 26, the other group does not contact the transmission rack 26, thereby controlling the transmission plate 25 to make reciprocating motion, and the directions of the tooth grooves of the two groups of transmission gears 27 are opposite. A driven gear 28 rotatably connected to the gantry 9 is fixedly mounted on the transmission gear 27. A driving gear 29 matched with the output end of the second drive motor 10 and meshing with the driven gear 28 is rotatably mounted in the gantry 9. The driving gear 2 The diameter of 9 is larger than the diameter of the driven gear 28. When the driving gear 29 rotates one circle, the driven gear 28 will be pulled to rotate one and a half circles, thereby achieving the effect of energy saving. Three groups of guide plates 24 are rotatably installed on the protective cover 7. The three groups of guide plates 24 are of the same size, and when the transmission plate 25 moves to the maximum limit, the three groups of guide plates 24 will be in a straight line to form a closed partition, and form a closed space with the contact plate 11 of the protective cover 7, which has a dust-proof effect on the low-voltage switch 2. The three groups of guide plates 24 are on the same horizontal line, and the three groups of guide plates 24 are equidistantly distributed on the protective cover 7. A curved groove 30 is provided at the bottom end of the transmission plate 25, and a connecting shaft 31 slidably connected to the curved groove 30 is rotatably installed on the guide plate 24.

[0032] It should be noted that the specific models and specifications of the first drive motor 3 and the second drive motor 10 need to be selected and determined according to the actual specifications of the device, and the specific selection calculation method adopts the existing technology in the field, so it is not repeated here.

[0033] The present invention can be explained by the following operation mode:

[0034] Turn on the first drive motor 3, control the screw rod 6 to rotate clockwise, and then drive the protective cover 7 to slide in the direction of the contact plate 11 through the threaded plate 8, until the protective cover 7 and the contact plate 11 are in contact and connected, and the low-voltage switch 2 is protected. At this time, the driving bevel gear 4 will drive the driven bevel gear 15 to rotate counterclockwise, and then drive the central shaft 14 to rotate, and drive the neighboring protective cover 7 to move through the driven bevel gear 15 on the other side;

[0035] Press the pressing cylinder 17 downward, and the abutment block 18 abuts against the wedge block 21, controlling the wedge block 21 to slide rightward, driving the connecting column 20 to move upward, and assembling the filter plate 13 into the abutment plate 11. Then, release the pressure on the pressing cylinder 17, and pull the connecting column 20 to reset through the strong spring 22, so that the filter plate 13 and the abutment plate 11 are connected;

[0036] The second drive motor 10 is turned on, and the drive gear 29 is controlled to rotate clockwise, thereby driving the two sets of driven gears 28 to rotate counterclockwise, thereby driving the transmission gear 27 to rotate. The two sets of transmission gears 27 are alternated with each other, and the transmission plate 25 is driven to slide back and forth on the protective cover 7 through the transmission rack 26. The connecting shaft 31 is pulled by the curved groove 30 to move, driving the three sets of guide plates 24 to swing back and forth, and the cooling fan 12 is turned on to speed up the circulation of air in the protective cover 7, and disperse the emitted heat through the swing of the guide plate 24.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
