Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrical control and protection technology, specifically to a waterproof pole-mounted circuit breaker. Background Technology
[0002] Waterproof pole-mounted circuit breakers are key devices in power distribution networks used for automatic opening and closing, fault isolation, and system protection. Their intelligent control modules often integrate power electronics technology, using metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) and insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs) chips or modules as core switching devices. These power semiconductor components are widely used in the control power supply, drive circuits, and communication modules of circuit breakers to achieve efficient energy conversion and precise control. Therefore, the manufacturing technology of power electronic devices such as MOSFETs and IGBTs plays a crucial role in improving the intelligence level and reliability of pole-mounted circuit breakers. The authors have formed a close technological and industrial link in the modern power equipment manufacturing and intelligent power distribution system construction. The application number is CN202120718695.2, which proposes a moisture-proof molded case circuit breaker. It can realize the installation of a moisture-proof shell on the outside of the molded case circuit breaker. The wire passage of the moisture-proof shell is equipped with a sealing plug to prevent moisture from entering directly from the wire passage. The vent is filled with a coarse-pore sponge sheet to filter moisture. A humidity sensor is installed to monitor the internal humidity. The removable activated carbon mesh installed on both sides of the molded case circuit breaker body can absorb moisture inside the moisture-proof shell, which has a moisture-proof function and can better maintain normal operation in humid environments.
[0003] However, current circuit breakers cannot simultaneously address both sealing and waterproofing as well as internal and external heat dissipation. They cannot effectively reuse the heat generated during operation. Not only is their heat dissipation poor, easily leading to overheating and aging, but their waterproofing is also insufficient, providing only basic protection. In humid weather, condensation can easily occur, causing moisture intrusion and affecting the insulation shielding effect of the circuit breaker during operation, thus compromising its effectiveness.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are: the present invention has a scientific and reasonable structure and is safe and convenient to use;
[0027] 1. Equipped with a residual heat dehumidification mechanism, which, in conjunction with the outer casing, sealing box, and arc-extinguishing cylinder, forms a double-sealing and triple-protection structure, effectively ensuring the stability of SF6 gas. Combined with the casing, conduction valve, impeller, turbine, through-hole, shaft, gas inlet pipe, gas delivery pipe, flow guide box, and return pipe, it can construct a traction pressurization structure, synchronously converting and utilizing the heat dissipated by the stationary and moving contacts during operation. This fully ensures the pressure sufficiency and stability of SF6 gas during operation, improving the reliability and effectiveness of arc extinguishing, significantly enhancing the insulation and shielding effect of SF6 gas, making the circuit breaker more stable during operation, effectively reducing the circuit breaker's failure rate, and promoting the circulation of SF6 gas to achieve dynamic arc extinguishing, improving the timeliness and effectiveness of arc extinguishing, and significantly increasing arc extinguishing efficiency and effect.
[0028] By combining coils, ducts, absorbent cotton, air ducts, I-shaped slot plates, plug plates, rotating plates, clamping columns, air inlet pipes, exhaust pipes, flow limiting valves, air guide seats, and filter boxes, a waste heat utilization structure can be formed. Combined with the guiding effect of the traction and pressurization structure, this structure promotes heat exchange between the inside and outside of the heat exchanger. While ensuring sealing, it significantly improves the heat exchange efficiency during circuit breaker operation, making the temperature more stable and enhancing the safety and reliability of the circuit breaker. It also fully utilizes the circuit breaker's performance, reducing the thermal aging process and effectively extending its service life. Furthermore, it fully utilizes the waste heat dissipated during circuit breaker operation, effectively reducing the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the outer casing, lowering the probability of condensation on the surface of the pole-mounted circuit breaker, and allowing hot air to blow onto the circuit breaker surface. This promotes the evaporation of moisture from the circuit breaker surface and improves the dryness of the space outside the circuit breaker, achieving dual moisture-proofing and dehumidification, and significantly improving the waterproof effect.
[0029] 2. Equipped with a multi-functional switching mechanism, the switch box, vent, sliding plate, conductive base, and connection rod work together to form a built-in isolating switch structure. Combined with stationary and moving contacts, it can effectively achieve dual switching operations of both the isolating switch and the circuit breaker. This provides dual physical switching and isolation protection during power supply and distribution, effectively improving the reliability of the circuit breaker's switching operation. It also allows the circuit breaker to operate independently without the constraints of an external isolating switch, saving space and enabling more efficient and flexible circuit switching. Furthermore, the synchronous linkage of the temperature lock cylinder, linkage box, vent, and linkage plate allows for rapid physical isolation of the circuit in case of circuit faults or overloads, greatly improving the timeliness and effectiveness of the circuit breaker's operation and making its operation more stable and efficient.
[0030] By using a pressure gauge, connecting pipe, and air nozzle in conjunction, the load pressure threshold of the circuit breaker can be adjusted and limited, allowing for flexible and efficient equivalent limitation of the circuit breaker's effective load range. This enables the circuit breaker to be applied to more types of power supply and distribution work, enhancing its flexibility and adaptability. Combined with the dynamic adjustment functions of the delivery pipe, air box, screw, movable plate, suction pipe, guide valve, pressure gauge, pressure relief valve, and lever, the dual on / off sequence of the circuit breaker can be limited, effectively reducing the technical threshold for operators in opening and closing operations. While fully utilizing the circuit breaker's primary function, it also takes into account the secondary on / off function of the disconnector, significantly improving the convenience, stability, and safety of opening and closing operations during power supply and distribution, making maintenance work safer and more reliable.
[0031] In summary, this circuit breaker can operate reliably under harsh climatic conditions, making secondary use of the residual heat generated during operation. While promoting internal and external heat exchange, it achieves dual moisture protection and dehumidification, effectively preventing moisture from seeping into the interior. This ensures that the circuit breaker will not malfunction in rainy, snowy, or humid environments. At the same time, it can achieve double-layer physical isolation of the circuit, ensuring the reliability of arc extinguishing while simultaneously ensuring the effectiveness of the circuit breaker's switching operation. This makes maintenance and repair work more convenient, safe, and reliable. It solves the problem that in existing technologies, the circuit breaker must be placed inside a cabinet. It can also serve as a waterproof component for circuit breakers of different specifications. Attached Figure Description

[0057] The working principle and usage process of this invention: In actual use, the outer casing 1 of this waterproof pole-mounted circuit breaker needs to be installed and fixed in the designated position using an external bracket. After completing the relevant debugging work, the power supply cable is connected to the terminal 13 on the moving contact 204 side and the power receiving cable is connected to the terminal 13 on the stationary contact 203 side. After completing the wiring installation work, the power supply and distribution work can be put into normal operation after connecting the terminal 13 on both sides. In actual use, the relevant debugging work can also be completed before installing and fixing the outer casing 1 in the designated position, depending on the actual situation.
[0058] In the initial state, the air pressure inside the switch box 302 is greater than the air pressure inside the linkage box 303, and the air pressure inside both the switch box 302 and the linkage box 303 is greater than the air pressure inside the temperature lock cylinder 301. At this time, under the pressure of the air pressure, the sliding plate 305 will provide an elastic support to the conductive base 306, forcing the conductive base 306 to connect with the stationary contact 203 and cooperate with the power connection rod 307 and the conductive sleeve 12, so that the stationary contact 203 is in a conductive state with the corresponding terminal 13. Meanwhile, under the pressure of the air pressure, the linkage plate 308 provides an elastic support to the moving contact 204, forcing the moving contact 204 to abut against the stationary contact 203, so that the terminals 13 on both sides are in a conductive state.
[0059] Before putting this circuit breaker into power distribution work, check the air pressure inside the switching box 302 and the linkage box 303 according to the reading of the corresponding air pressure gauge 309. If necessary, use an external air filling device to inject air into the switching box 302 and the linkage box 303 through the two connecting pipes 310 to adjust the air pressure inside the switching box 302 and the linkage box 303. When the wiring terminals 13 on both sides are in the conducting state, ensure the stability and effectiveness of the switching adjustment of this circuit breaker.
[0060] After the air pressure inside the switch box 302 and linkage box 303 is regulated, the double-way valve in the pressure relief valve 319 and the flow guide valve 317 is closed. The lever 320 is moved back and forth, and the movable plate 315 is driven to move back and forth inside the air box 313 through the screw 314. After the external air is filtered by the filter box 227, it is drawn into the air box 313 through the suction pipe 316 and the air inlet check valve in the flow guide valve 317. Then, it is sent into each heat lock cylinder 301 through the air supply pipe 212 connected to the air outlet check valve in the flow guide valve 317. Under the guidance of the air guide hole 304, it flows into each switch box 302 and linkage box 303, giving the sliding plate 305 and the linkage plate 308 a reverse thrust.
[0061] When the reverse thrust of the connecting plate 308 is sufficient to overcome the air pressure on its other side, it will drag the moving contact 204 away from the stationary contact 203 under the action of the reverse thrust. When the reverse thrust of the sliding plate 305 is sufficient to overcome the air pressure on its other side, it will drag the conductive base 306 away from the stationary contact 203 under the action of the reverse thrust. Here, the connecting rod 307, the conductive base 306 and the stationary contact 203 are equivalent to forming an isolating switch structure, which can cooperate with the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204 to double isolate the connection between the terminals 13 on both sides.
[0062] By adjusting the air pressure inside the switching box 302 and the linkage box 303 as described above, the air pressure on the other side of the linkage plate 308 is less than the air pressure on the other side of the sliding plate 305. Since the reverse thrust on the linkage plate 308 and the sliding plate 305 is always the same, the reverse thrust will first push the linkage plate 308 to move, disconnecting the connection between the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204, and then push the sliding plate 305 to move, disconnecting the connection between the conductive seat 306 and the stationary contact 203. Conversely, as the reverse thrust gradually decreases, since the air pressure on the other side of the sliding plate 305 is greater than the air pressure on the other side of the linkage plate 308, the sliding plate 305 will reset before the linkage plate 308, thus first connecting the connection between the conductive seat 306 and the stationary contact 203, and then connecting the connection between the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204.
[0063] Similarly, in the subsequent use of this circuit breaker, when it is necessary to disconnect the circuit connection for maintenance, the aforementioned steps can be followed by reciprocating the lever 320 to first disconnect the connection between the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204, and then disconnect the connection between the conductive base 306 and the stationary contact 203, so as to ensure the stable operation of the circuit breaker, ensure the effectiveness of the arc extinguishing operation, and achieve double circuit breaker isolation.
[0064] Similarly, during the subsequent use of the circuit breaker, the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204 will dissipate heat as the power supply is in operation. This heat will act on the air inside the temperature lock cylinder 301, causing the air pressure inside the temperature lock cylinder 301 to rise. Consequently, the connecting plate 308 and the sliding plate 305 will rise due to the reverse thrust. When the power supply is overloaded or other abnormal conditions cause the heat dissipated from the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204 to rise abnormally, the reverse thrust will exceed the critical value. At this time, under the action of the reverse thrust, the connection between the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204 will be disconnected first, and then the connection between the conductive base 306 and the stationary contact 203 will be disconnected, automatically cutting off the circuit.
[0065] During the aforementioned process, the displacement of the sliding plate 305 and the linkage plate 308 will also cause the air pressure on the other side to fluctuate accordingly. By comparing the readings of the air pressure gauges 309 on the switch box 302 and the linkage box 303 with the initial air pressure value, when the readings of each air pressure gauge 309 are greater than the initial value, it can be ensured that the connection between the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204, as well as the connection between the conductive base 306 and the stationary contact 203, is in the open state. Before connecting the power supply cable and the power receiving cable, it should be ensured that the connection between the terminals 13 on both sides is in the open state.
[0066] After the cables connecting the power supply and receiving ends are connected, the double-way valves in the pressure relief valve 319 and the flow guide valve 317 are opened. The air inside each heat-locking cylinder 301 flows into the air box 313 through the delivery pipe 312 connected to the double-way valve in the flow guide valve 317, and then flows out through the pressure relief valve 319. This reduces the reverse thrust on the linkage plate 308 and the sliding plate 305. The air pressure inside each heat-locking cylinder 301 can be limited by the reading of the pressure gauge 318. When the reading of the pressure gauge 318 is less than that of the air pressure gauge 309, it can be ensured that the connection of the terminals 13 on both sides is in the conductive state. At this time, the circuit breaker starts to work normally.
[0067] During the normal operation of this circuit breaker, as the power supply is carried out, the heat emitted from the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204 will cause the temperature of the SF6 gas inside the arc-extinguishing cylinder 202 to rise, and the corresponding gas pressure inside the arc-extinguishing cylinder 202 will also rise. Under the action of gas pressure, the SF6 gas will pass through the top conduction valve 205 into the sealing box 201, and then enter the cavity where the turbine 208 is located inside the housing 206 through the gas inlet pipe 211, forcing the turbine 208 to rotate accordingly. The turbine 208 will then drive the impeller 207 to rotate through the rotating shaft 210.
[0068] The impeller 207 pressurizes and pulls the SF6 gas, forcing it to enter the cavity of the impeller 207 inside the housing 206 through the through hole 209. After entering the guide box 213, the pressurized SF6 gas is forced into the guide box 213 through the gas delivery pipe 212. The pressurized SF6 gas then flows back into the bottom cavity of the sealing box 201 through the return pipe 214, and then flows back into each arc-extinguishing cylinder 202 under the conduction of the bottom guide valves 205, forming a complete SF6 gas flow cycle.
[0069] During the aforementioned process, the rotating shaft 210 will also drive the rotating plate 221 to rotate, forcing the I-shaped slot plate 219 to drag the plug plate 220 back and forth inside the air cavity 218 under the drive of the clamping post 222. This forces the external cold air to be filtered by the filter box 227 and then drawn into the air cavity 218 through the air duct 216, the air inlet pipe 223 and the flow limiting valve 225. During the process of the cold air flowing through the air duct 216, it will absorb the heat emitted by the SF6 gas outside the coil 215 and turn it into hot air. The hot air will finally be pressed into the air guide seat 226 through the flow limiting valve 225 and the exhaust pipe 224. After being split twice by the air guide seat 226, it will be sprayed out and evenly blown onto the surface of the outer shell 1.
[0070] During the aforementioned process, the cold air absorbs the heat emitted by the SF6 gas, which can promote the heat dissipation of the SF6 gas during the circulation process. This quickly dissipates the heat emitted by the stationary contact 203 and the moving contact 204 during operation, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the circuit breaker during operation. This ensures the stability of the circuit breaker's operation while maintaining its sealing performance.
[0071] The cold air absorbs the heat emitted by SF6 gas and converts it into hot airflow. After being ejected through the air guide seat 226, it can reduce the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the outer casing 1, and prevent condensation from forming on the surface of the circuit breaker due to excessive air humidity in humid weather. In addition, the blowing of the hot airflow will further promote the evaporation of moisture on the outside of the outer casing 1, which can greatly enhance the dryness of the outside of the outer casing 1 and effectively improve the waterproof effect. As the air flows through the air duct 216, the moisture it carries will be absorbed by the water-absorbing cotton 217, and the heat emitted by SF6 gas will also promote the evaporation of moisture, which can ensure that the hot airflow is always in a dry state, further improving the waterproof performance.
