[0036] Embodiment 1

[0037] This embodiment elaborates in detail a recloser and circuit breaker with a positioning structure, and illustrates the technical solution with reference numerals. As Figures 1 to 6 shown, the recloser includes a recloser housing 10, an operating mechanism 20 and a positioning mechanism 30. In the closing and opening operations of traditional reclosers and circuit breakers, it is necessary to adjust the opening distance and synchronism through an adjusting screw many times, which has the problems of long debugging time and easy errors.

[0038] In this embodiment, three pole columns 12 are provided at the top of the recloser housing 10, and each component is fixed inside the recloser housing 10 through a mounting plate 11. Among them, the mounting plate 11 is welded or assembled through fasteners on the top surface inside the recloser housing 10. The operating mechanism 20 includes a cross bar 21, a power component 22, a telescopic rod 221 and a link assembly 222. The cross bar 21 can move left and right inside the recloser housing 10, and the two ends thereof are provided with first convex shafts 211. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first convex shaft 211 is a columnar pin structure, that is, through holes are provided at both ends of the cross bar 21, and the first convex shaft 211 is inserted into the through holes and then connected to the positioning mechanism 30. The power component 22 is a permanent magnet, and driving the telescopic rod 221 can drive the link assembly 222 to act, so that the cross bar 21 moves left and right to realize closing and opening. In addition, the operating mechanism 20 is also provided with a manual closing and opening mechanism 23, and the user can control the position of the cross bar 21 through manual operation or automatic drive, that is, the operating mechanism 20 also includes a manual closing and opening mechanism 23.

[0039] The positioning mechanism 30 is located at both ends of the cross bar 21 and is composed of a main body 31, an adjusting rod 32, a second convex shaft 321 and a connecting plate 33. The main body 31 is a hollow structure and is fixed on the mounting plate 11 through fasteners. A horizontal slot 311 and an inclined slot 312 are provided at the lower end thereof. It should be noted that the lower end is the end far from the mounting plate 11, and the upper end is the end connected to the mounting plate 11. The main body 31 has left and right side walls and a connecting wall connecting the two side walls. The horizontal slots 311 are respectively arranged oppositely on the two side walls, and a gap for the cross bar 21 to move is provided between the two side walls.

[0040] Both ends of the first convex shaft 211 are arranged in the two transverse grooves 311 and can slide in the inclined groove 312, that is, both ends of the cross bar 21 are respectively located in the gaps of the two main bodies 31. The adjusting rod 32 is connected to one end of the connecting plate 33 through the second convex shaft 321, and the other end of the connecting plate 33 is connected to the cross bar 21 through the first convex shaft 211 to achieve linkage. In this embodiment, the end of the adjusting rod 32 has a connecting thread, and the adjusting rod 32 is connected to the pole column 12 through the connecting thread. That is, a thread groove is provided in the pole column 12 for installing the adjusting rod 32. When the adjusting rod 32 moves up and down, the relative position of the cross bar 21 can be correspondingly adjusted, so as to achieve precise calibration of the working state.

[0041] The transverse groove 311 includes an end point a3111 and an end point b3112, corresponding to the closing and opening positions respectively. Refer to Figure 4 As shown, at this time, the recloser is in the closing position, the second convex shaft 321 of the adjusting rod 32 is located at the end point a3111, and correspondingly, the end point b3112 is located at the adjacent position of the transverse groove 311 and the inclined groove 312, that is, the intersection of the plane and the inclined plane. When the second convex shaft 321 is located at the end point b3112, the recloser is in the opening position.

[0042] In the opening state, the cross bar 21 moves to the right so that the first convex shaft 211 is located at the end point a3111 of the transverse groove 311. At this time, the connecting rod assembly 222 is in the extended state. When opening is required, the power member 22 drives the telescopic rod 221 to contract, driving the cross bar 21 to move to the left. The first convex shaft 211 slides along the transverse groove 311 to the end point b3112.

[0043] The inclined groove 312 is arranged obliquely upward. If the first convex shaft 211 enters the inclined groove 312, its contact surface 3121 abuts against the first convex shaft 211. Due to the slope design of the inclined groove 312, the cross bar 21 needs to overcome friction when moving, ensuring that the recloser cannot be closed again through the operating mechanism 20. That is, if the cross bar 21 is accidentally displaced due to external force or the adjustment is not in place due to assembly problems, causing the first convex shaft 211 to enter the inclined groove 312, the inclined structure of the inclined groove 312 can prevent the first convex shaft 211 from directly sliding back into the transverse groove 311, avoiding damage caused by forced closing of the vacuum tube in an uncalibrated state.

[0044] Traditional reclosers need to adjust the opening distance and synchronization multiple times through adjusting screws after assembly, which is time-consuming and error-prone. This embodiment solves this problem through a pre-adjustment mechanism. An adjusting screw 6 is provided at the connection between the adjusting rod 32 and the pole column 12. During the assembly stage, by rotating the adjusting screw 6, the second convex shaft 321 moves up and down in the connection groove 313, so as to adjust the initial position of the cross bar 21. The cross bar 21 drives the pin 2 to slide in the notch of the support 3, and the notch is designed with a downward slope. When the pin 2 moves to the edge of the notch, it indicates that the opening is in place and the opening distance meets the standard. The three-phase pole columns 12 can be pre-adjusted synchronously in this way to ensure the consistency of the actions of each phase, saving the later disassembly and adjustment steps.

[0045] The manual opening and closing mechanism 23 and the power component 22 are both controlled to act through the cross bar 21. When the first convex shaft 211 is located in the inclined groove 312 (opening state), the frictional force between the inclined groove 312 and the first convex shaft 211 is greater than the driving force. This design prevents the accidental movement of the cross bar 21 during misoperation or abnormal power, ensuring the stability of the opening state. In addition, the hollow structure of the main body 31 provides guidance for the cross bar 21, avoiding the misalignment of the pole column 12 caused by deviation.

[0046] This solution can also be applied to a circuit breaker, which includes all the positioning structures of the above-mentioned recloser. During the opening process of the circuit breaker, the movement trajectory of the cross bar 21 is precisely controlled by the inclined groove 312, and with the pre-commissioning function of the adjusting rod 32, the action reliability is significantly improved.

[0047] In this embodiment, by integrating the positioning mechanism 30, the pre-commissioning mechanism and the anti-misoperation design, the problems of cumbersome debugging and easily damaged vacuum tubes of traditional reclosers are completely solved. The coordinated action of the adjusting rod 32 and the inclined groove 312 not only realizes precise positioning but also improves the durability of the equipment. In addition, the dual-mode design of manual and automatic drive enhances the operation flexibility. This solution can be widely applied in the power system, providing technical support for the efficient operation and maintenance of reclosers and circuit breakers.

[0048] The above-described embodiments are only descriptions of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the concept and scope of the present invention. Without departing from the design concept of the present invention, various modifications and improvements made by those of ordinary skill in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
