Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of power switch equipment, and in particular relates to a bidirectional synchronous high-efficiency composite gear transmission mechanism for an isolating switch. Background Art

[0002] In traditional disconnect switches, rack-and-pinion transmissions typically use a single pinion driving a single rack to achieve unidirectional motion. Bidirectional transmission requires the addition of an additional reverse gear set or reversing mechanism, resulting in a complex, bulky structure and low transmission efficiency. Existing dual-rack synchronous reverse transmissions often employ a dual-gear top-to-top meshing design, which presents problems such as cumulative meshing backlash errors and significant energy loss. Furthermore, under high loads, the transmission design is prone to rack deflection due to uneven friction, compromising motion accuracy. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art, the present invention provides a bidirectional synchronous and efficient composite gear transmission mechanism for an isolating switch.

[0005] The main drive gear is a double-module gear with an elliptical involute tooth profile.

[0006] The working surfaces of the upper rack and the lower rack are both composed of a high-strength meshing section and a flexible buffer section.

[0007] The back sides of the upper rack and the lower rack are provided with cross roller guide rails.

[0008] Disc spring groups are provided at the ends of the upper rack and the lower rack.

[0009] A guide sleeve is respectively provided outside the left movable conductive rod and the right movable conductive rod.

[0010] A bearing is installed on the transmission shaft, and a fixing plate is installed between the bearing and the housing.

[0011] A conductor is installed on the shell.

[0012] Shielding covers are respectively installed at both ends of the shell.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: a single gear can drive the movement of the symmetrical racks on both sides, thereby realizing the opening and closing actions of the contacts; the structure is simple and compact, the reliability is high, and it has the advantages of high modularity and convenient and quick installation and debugging.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The accompanying drawings illustrate a specific embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment comprises a housing 1, on which is mounted a transmission shaft 2 connected to a main drive gear 3. The main drive gear 3 is meshed with an upper rack 4 and a lower rack 5 at its upper and lower sides, respectively. The upper rack 4 is connected to a left movable conductive rod 7 via a left insulating pull rod 6, and the lower rack 5 is connected to a right movable conductive rod 9 via a right insulating pull rod 8. The left movable conductive rod 7 and the right movable conductive rod 9 are each connected to a stationary contact 11 via a conductive contact finger 10. The left movable conductive rod 7 and the right movable conductive rod 9 are each connected to a movable contact 12.

[0017] The main drive gear 3 is dual-module and features an elliptical involute tooth profile. The working surfaces of the upper and lower racks 4 and 5 are composed of a high-strength meshing section 13 and a flexible buffer section 14. Cross-roller guides 15 are located on the backs of the upper and lower racks 4 and 5. Disc spring assemblies 16 are located at the ends of the upper and lower racks 4 and 5.

[0018] A guide sleeve 17 is provided on the outside of the left moving conductive rod 7 and the right moving conductive rod 9. A bearing 18 is installed on the transmission shaft 2, and a fixing plate 19 is installed between the bearing 18 and the housing 1. A conductor 20 is installed on the housing 1. Shielding covers 21 are installed at both ends of the housing 1.

[0019] The present invention utilizes a bidirectional, synchronous, and efficient composite gear transmission mechanism for disconnectors. It employs a composite gear topology. The main drive gear (3) features a dual-module design with an elliptical involute tooth profile, meshing with a bilaterally symmetrical stepped rack. The rack's working surface is divided into a high-strength meshing section (13) and a flexible buffer section (14). A cross-roller guide (15) is integrated into the rack's back. A bidirectional, self-compensating synchronization system is also implemented, and a disc spring assembly (16) is installed at the rack's end to dynamically absorb the impact energy of the rack's synchronous operation.

[0020] The motor rotates the drive shaft 2, which in turn drives the main drive gear 3 clockwise. This drives the upper rack 4 to the right and the lower rack 5 to the left, separating the moving contact 12 from the stationary contact 11, thereby opening the circuit breaker. The drive shaft 2 rotates the main drive gear 3 counterclockwise, driving the upper rack 4 to the left and the lower rack 5 to the right. This connects the moving contact 12 and the stationary contact 11 via the conductive contact fingers 10, thereby closing the circuit breaker.
