Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of disconnect switches, and in particular to a contact component and a disconnect switch. Background Art
[0002] In the field of power switchgear, dynamic and thermal stability is one of the important indicators to measure the performance of equipment. The so-called dynamic thermal stability refers to the performance of switchgear when it withstands the rated peak withstand current and the rated short-time withstand current. When a short-circuit fault occurs in the power system, due to the difference in the action time of the relay protection device, the switchgear needs to withstand a huge short-circuit current within the specified rated short-circuit duration and maintain normal operation without abnormal conditions. Under the action of the short-circuit impact current, a strong electrodynamic force will be generated at the moving and static contact parts of the disconnect switch of the switchgear, thus causing a repulsive force. If the equipment cannot effectively resist this repulsive force, the moving and static contacts may separate, and then a breakdown arc will be generated, resulting in contact ablation or welding, and finally the opening function of the switchgear will fail. Therefore, good dynamic and thermal stability performance is crucial for ensuring the safe and reliable operation of switchgear.
[0003] In the design of switchgear, the core of achieving dynamic and thermal stability lies in resisting the electrodynamic force generated by the short-circuit current. This usually needs to be achieved by increasing the pressure between the moving and static contacts. However, too high contact pressure will cause greater mechanical wear during the closing process of the disconnect switch, thus significantly reducing the service life of the disconnect switch.

[0033] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the specific embodiments and the drawings.
[0034] The terms used in the present invention are those general terms that are currently widely used in the art in consideration of the functions of the present invention. However, these terms may vary according to the intention of those of ordinary skill in the art, precedents, or new technologies in the art. In addition, specific terms may be selected by the applicant, and in this case, their detailed meanings will be described in the detailed description of the present invention. Therefore, the terms used in the specification should not be construed as simple names, but based on the meanings of the terms and the overall description of the present invention.
[0035] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 , this embodiment provides a contact component, including,
[0036] A contact member 1, the contact member 1 includes a static contact 11, a moving contact blade body 12, and a driving shaft 13. The moving contact blade body 12 is arranged outside the driving shaft 13. The driving shaft 13 is used to adjust the contact between the moving contact blade body 12 and the static contact 11. The static contact 11 is arranged in a T shape;
[0037] A triggering member 2, the triggering member 2 is composed of a shaft body 21 and a pressing rod 22. The pressing rod 22 is installed outside the shaft body 21 through a bolt. The shaft body 21 is arranged outside the driving shaft 13;
[0038] A pressing member 3, the pressing member 3 includes two connecting rods 31, a pressing block 32 installed outside the two connecting rods 31 through a round hole, and a wedge block 33 installed outside the two groups of connecting rods 31 through a cavity. The two connecting rods 31 are installed at one end of the moving contact blade body 12.
[0039] When the driving shaft 13 rotates counterclockwise, it will drive the moving contact blade body 12 to rotate synchronously until the moving contact blade body 12 contacts the static contact 11. On the contrary, when the driving shaft 13 rotates clockwise, it will drive the moving contact blade body 12 to separate from the static contact 11.
[0040] As an embodiment provided in the present application, as Figures 2 to 8 , the moving contact blade body 12 is composed of a blade shaft 121 and two groups of triggering blade heads 122. Positioning holes 123 are opened on both sides of the blade shaft 121. The two groups of triggering blade heads 122 are installed outside the blade shaft 121 through bolts.
[0041] The driving shaft 13 includes a circular shaft 131, a groove 132 opened on the outside of the circular shaft 131, and a torsion spring 133 arranged on the outside of the circular shaft 131;
[0042] Among them, one end of the torsion spring 133 is fixedly connected inside the positioning hole 123, and the other end is arranged inside the groove 132.
[0043] Two groups of triggering members 2 are arranged, and the two groups of triggering members 2 are respectively located at both ends of the circular shaft 131. The shaft body 21 is installed outside the circular shaft 131 through keyway fit;
[0044] Among them, the tool shaft 121 is installed outside the circular shaft 131 through keyway fit.
[0045] When the circular shaft 131 is driven to rotate counterclockwise, the circular shaft 131 drives the pressure rod 22 to rotate synchronously through the shaft body 21. At the same time, since the torsion spring 133 abuts against the groove 132 of the circular shaft 131, the circular shaft 131 will transmit power through the torsion spring 133, thereby driving the tool shaft 121 to rotate, and finally causing the trigger tool head 122 at one end of the tool shaft 121 to rotate until the trigger tool head 122 is in full contact with the static contact 11.
[0046] When the circular shaft 131 rotates counterclockwise until the trigger tool head 122 contacts the static contact 11, the trigger tool head 122 stops rotating due to the restriction of the static contact 11. At this time, when the circular shaft 131 continues to rotate, the torsion spring 133 will be further compressed, while the pressure rod 22 continues to rotate with the drive shaft 301.
[0047] It should be particularly noted that before the trigger tool head 122 moves towards the static contact 11 side, the torsion spring 133 itself has a certain initial pre-torsion force after installation. This pre-torsion force enables the circular shaft 131 to drive the trigger tool head 122 to rotate synchronously through the torsion spring 133 during the rotation process.
[0048] As an embodiment provided in the present application, as Figures 2 to 9 , nuts 311 are threadedly connected to both ends of the two connecting rods 31, a limiting sleeve 312 is provided at the middle ends of the two connecting rods 31, and disc springs 313 are provided outside the two connecting rods 31.
[0049] The pressing block 32 includes a guide groove 321 opened on the inner side of the pressing block 32 and a spring 322 fixedly connected to the inner side of the pressing block 32.
[0050] A slider 331 is fixedly connected to the inclined surface of the wedge block 33. The slider 331 is located inside the guide groove 321 and slides along the inside of the guide groove 321.
[0051] The nuts 311 are used to limit the installation of the pressing block 32 and the wedge block 33 outside the two connecting rods 31. The disc springs 313 are located between the pressing block 32 and the trigger tool head 122, and both ends of the spring 322 are respectively connected to the pressing block 32 and the wedge block 33.
[0052] When the circular shaft 131 continues to rotate by a certain angle, the pressure rod 22 will contact the wedge block 33 and push the wedge block 33 to move along the radial direction of the connecting rod 31. Since the wedge block 33 and the pressing block 32 cooperate with each other through the groove 132 and the slider 331, the pressing block 32 will move along the axial direction of the connecting rod 31 as the wedge block 33 moves, thereby increasing the compression amount of the disc spring 313 and thus increasing the contact pressure between the trigger tool head 122 and the static contact 11.
[0053] During the opening process of the disconnecting switch, the circular shaft 131 rotates clockwise. At this time, the pressure rod 22 and the wedge block 33 are disengaged from contact first. The pressure block 32 moves along the axial direction of the connecting rod 31 under the elastic force of the disc spring 313 until it returns to the initial position. The wedge block 33 moves along the radial direction of the connecting rod 31 under the elastic force of the spring 322 and the acting force of the pressure block 32 until it returns to the initial position. At the same time, the contact pressure between the moving contact head 122 and the static contact 11 will gradually decrease to the initial pressure. As the circular shaft 131 continues to rotate clockwise, the circular shaft 131 drives the moving contact head 122 to rotate through the torsion spring 133, so that it is completely disengaged from the static contact 11.
[0054] Through the above design, the function of the sectional closing of the disconnecting switch can be realized only by the rotation of the circular shaft 131. This design disassembles the traditional single closing action of the disconnecting switch into two independent stages: first is the contact of the moving and static contacts of the disconnecting switch, and then is the pressurization of the contacts. This sectional operation can not only ensure that the switching device obtains sufficient contact pressure during closing, so as to ensure the dynamic and thermal stability, but also significantly reduce the mechanical wear generated during the opening process, thus greatly improving the service life of the disconnecting switch.
[0055] As an embodiment provided in this application, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , a disconnecting switch, including a contact assembly, further includes,
[0056] The mounting member 4 includes two groups of side plates 41 and a rotating shaft 42 rotatably connected to the two groups of side plates 41. One end of the rotating shaft 42 is connected to the driving source;
[0057] The fitting member 5 includes two groups of connecting plates 51 and a mounting plate 52.
[0058] The two groups of connecting plates 51 are installed and connected to the two groups of side plates 41 through bolts. The mounting plate 52 is installed between the two groups of side plates 41 through bolts, and the static contact 11 is installed at the top of the mounting plate 52 through bolts. The circular shaft 131 is installed outside the rotating shaft 42 through a keyway.
[0059] By driving the rotating shaft 42 by the driving source, the rotation of the circular shaft 131 can be realized. At the same time, through the assembly of the side plates 41 and the connecting plates 51, the overall stability of the device can be ensured, and local replacement can be carried out when some components are damaged, so as to reduce the later maintenance cost.
[0060] Finally, it should be pointed out that the methods and devices described in detail above are only embodiments, and those skilled in the art can modify these embodiments in different ways as long as they do not depart from the scope of the present invention.
