Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of isolating switches and relates to an operating mechanism of an isolating switch. Background Art

[0002] With the introduction of new DC high-voltage disconnectors into the market, high requirements are placed on the closing and opening speeds of disconnectors. The operating mechanism of the disconnector determines the closing and opening speeds of the disconnector. Currently, a hard transmission method is used between the output follower and the input active member of the operating mechanism of the disconnector on the market. For example, CN217588787U discloses an operating mechanism of a disconnector. Figure 4 In the operating mechanism shown in the figure, the a-axis and the b-axis are the rotating axes of the input active member, 200 and 300 are the input active members, when one of them is rotated by the operator, the output follower 300 on the other side will rotate together with the input active member, and the output follower 300 is connected to the contact module, and the rotation speed of the output follower is the closing and opening speed of the disconnector, so the closing and opening speed of the contact depends on the rotation speed of the input active member operated by the operator, which will greatly reduce the arc extinguishing effect when closing and opening. Summary of the invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an operating mechanism for an isolating switch, in which a flexible connection of a spring is adopted between an output follower and an input active member, and the closing speed of the switch depends only on the parameters and structure of the spring, so that the closing and opening speed of the mechanism does not depend on human operation, thereby speeding up the closing and opening speed.

[0004] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0005] An operating mechanism of an isolating switch comprises a housing with a cavity therein, a first rotating transmission member rotatably arranged in the cavity, an input driving member for driving the first rotating transmission member to rotate, a second rotating transmission member rotatably arranged coaxially with the first rotating transmission member, an output driven member drivingly connected to the second rotating transmission member, and a spring assembly;

[0009] When the input driving member drives the first rotating transmission member to rotate forward, the spring assembly is first compressed until the eccentrically arranged end crosses the connection line between the other end and the rotating shaft of the first rotating transmission member, and then the elastic potential energy of the spring assembly is released and pushes the second rotating transmission member to drive the output driven member to rotate reversely together.

[0010] Further, a first V-shaped limiting platform and a second V-shaped limiting platform are arranged in the housing;

[0011] Both sides of the second rotating transmission member with respect to the rotating shaft can be successively abutted against both sides of the first V-shaped limiting platform during the rotation process, so as to be rotationally limited in the cavity;

[0018] Further, the output driven member is a coupling member, and a first circumferential limiting shaft is arranged on one side of the coupling member, and a second circumferential limiting hole adapted to the first circumferential limiting shaft is arranged on the corresponding second rotating transmission member.

[0019] The coupling piece is synchronously rotationally connected to the second rotating transmission piece through the first circumferential limiting shaft and the second circumferential limiting hole.

[0020] As a preferred technical solution, the operating mechanism includes a pair of second rotating transmission pieces arranged in parallel, and each second rotating transmission piece is synchronously rotationally connected with a coupling piece.

[0042] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The following embodiments are implemented on the premise of the above technical solutions of the present invention, and the detailed implementation manners and specific operation processes are given, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0043] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings. Therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings.

[0044] The following will describe in detail some embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings. Without conflict, the following embodiments and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0045] Embodiment:

[0046] An operating mechanism of a disconnector, where the top operating wheel 1 or the side operating wheel 2 is the input driving member, the coupling member 7 is the output driven member, and the coupling member 7 is connected to the external contact module;

[0047] As Figure 1 With Figure 2 shown, the splints 3, the second gears 5, and the spring assemblies 6 are arranged in pairs and centered. The outermost are two splints 3, followed by two second gears 5, and the spring assemblies 6 are in the middle;

[0048] As Figure 3 shown, the spring assembly 6 is composed of a spring bracket 61, a main compression spring 62, a support plate 63, and a second spring shaft 64. The main compression spring 62 is installed between the spring bracket 61 and the support plate 63. The support plate 63 abuts against the second spring shaft 64, and the second spring shaft 64 is installed in the first mounting hole 31 of the splint 3 as Figure Four shown.

[0049] As Figure 4 , Figure 5 With Figure 6 shown, the splint 3 has a second circumferential limiting hole 32, the second gear 5 has a third circumferential limiting hole 53, the rotating shaft 8 has a second circumferential limiting shaft 81 and a second circular shaft surface 82, the coupling member 7 has a circular hole 71 and a first circumferential limiting shaft 72, and the side operating wheel 2 has a first circumferential limiting hole 21 and a first circular shaft surface 22. Among them, the second axial limiting hole and the first axial limiting shaft are matched, the third circumferential limiting hole 53 and the first circumferential limiting hole 21 are matched with the second circumferential limiting shaft 81, the second circular shaft surface 82 is matched with the circular hole 71, and the first circular shaft surface 22 is matched with the part with a smaller diameter in the second circumferential limiting hole 32.

[0050] As Figure 7 shown, the second gear 5 has a second mounting hole 52, the first spring shaft 51 is installed in the second mounting hole 52, the spring bracket 61 abuts against the first spring shaft 51, and the compression force of the main compression spring 62 is applied to the first spring shaft 51 and the second spring shaft 64, and gives opposite torques to the second gear 5 and the splint 3.

[0051] As Figure 9 With Figure 10 shown, the whole mechanism is placed in the housing 9, and the second limiting surface 54 on the second gear 5 and the first limiting surface 33 on the splint 3 respectively abut against the third limiting surface 91 and the fourth limiting surface 92 in the housing 9.

[0052] AsFigure 8 As shown, the top operation wheel 1 is fixedly connected to the first gear 11, and the two can also be regarded as a whole. The slider assembly 4 is composed of a first rack 41 and a second rack 42, which are fixedly connected. The first gear 11 meshes with the first rack 41, and the second rack 42 meshes with the second gear 5.

[0053] As Figure 7 shown, the movement process of the mechanism is as follows:

[0054] When the top operation wheel 1 rotates, it drives the slider assembly 4 to slide to the right. The second rack 42 drives the second gear 5 to rotate clockwise. The second gear 5 drives the second spring shaft 64 to rotate and compress the main compression spring 62. At this time, the main compression spring 62 gives the clamping plate 3 a clockwise torque. Since the first limiting surface 33 of the clamping plate 3 abuts against the third limiting surface 91 of the housing 9, the clamping plate 3 will not rotate clockwise. When the spring assembly 6 passes the dead point, the main compression spring 62 gives the clamping plate 3 a counterclockwise torque, and the clamping plate 3 drives the coupling member 7 to rotate counterclockwise rapidly until the first limiting surface 33 at the other end of the clamping plate 3 abuts against the third limiting surface 91 at the other end of the housing 9 and stops moving.

[0055] It is also possible to directly rotate the rotating shaft 8 by the side operation wheel 2 to drive the second gear 5 to rotate, and the subsequent movement steps are the same as those described above.

[0056] The above description of the embodiments is to enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand and use the invention. It is obvious that those skilled in the art can easily make various modifications to these embodiments and apply the general principles described herein to other embodiments without creative efforts. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and the improvements and modifications made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the present invention should be within the protection scope of the present invention.
