Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of low-voltage switch cabinets, in particular to a unit positioning device of a movable drawer unit and a movable drawer unit assembly. Background Art

[0002] The movable drawer unit of the low-voltage switchgear includes a fixed part and a movable part. The movable part is connected to the main circuit by moving its position. After the unit is placed in the unit room, the unit locking mechanism on both sides of the fixed part of the unit locks the unit in the unit room through the unit locking plate 16. However, in order to ensure that the unit locking plate 16 can be lifted up and unlocked normally, the unit locking plates 16 on both sides of the fixed part and the locking holes 17 on the unit room layer plate have a front-to-back matching gap of 1mm that cannot be reduced.

[0003] Due to this front-to-back clearance, the main circuit insertion resistance generated during the process of pushing the movable component into the connection position will cause the unit as a whole to move forward by 1.0 mm, causing the unit locking plate 16 to squeeze the end face of the locking hole 17 on the layer plate. Due to the large squeezing force, as the number of operations increases, the end face will have slight notches and burrs, further increasing the front-to-back clearance.

[0004] At the same time, this front-to-back clearance will also cause the connection depth of the main circuit connector to be reduced by 1mm when the unit enters the connection position.

[0005] In addition, when the movable part exits the connection position, the fixed part will move backward and produce a loud abnormal noise (i.e., a jumping sound). The production of this abnormal noise is related to the poor propulsion connection of the unit and the large amount of movement of the fixed part. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is that the front-to-back matching clearance between the unit locking plate of the existing movable drawer unit and the locking hole on the unit chamber layer plate is too large, resulting in large movement and loud abnormal noise when the unit is withdrawn from the connection position.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0034] like Figures 1 to 14 As shown, a unit positioning device of a movable drawer unit includes a locking member 1, a driving member 2 and a positioning hole 4 on a unit chamber layer plate 3. The locking member 1 can be slidably installed on the fixed part 5 of the movable drawer unit up and down. The rear part of the driving member 2 is fixed to the movable part 6 of the movable drawer unit, which is used to make the driving member 2 move forward and backward with the movable part 6. There is a sliding groove driving structure between the driving member 2 and the locking member 1, which is used to drive the locking member 1 to slide up and down when the driving member 2 moves forward and backward with the movable part 6. In the process of the movable part 6 moving from the separation position to the connection position, the driving member 2 drives the locking member 1 downward to insert into the positioning hole 4 through the sliding groove driving structure, which is used to position the movable drawer unit. The sliding groove driving mechanism includes a driving groove 7 and a driving pin 8 embedded in the driving groove 7. The sliding groove driving mechanism generates a driving effect by the relative movement of the driving groove 7 and the driving pin 8.

[0035] The locking member 1 is a rod-shaped member, the driving member 2 is a plate member, and the fitting clearance between the locking member 1 and the positioning hole 4 is designed to be 0.1 mm. The corresponding forward and backward movement of the unit is reduced to 0.2 mm.

[0036] The driving chute 7 of the chute type driving structure is located on the driving member 2, and the driving pin 8 is provided on the locking member 1. Of course, it is not excluded that a chute plate is provided on the locking member 1, the driving chute 7 is located on the chute plate, and the driving pin 8 is provided on the driving member 2.

[0037] The locking member 1 is slidably mounted on the fixed part 5 of the movable drawer unit through the lower guide hole on the push interlock base plate 9 of the fixed part 5 and the upper guide hole on the cover plate 10 covering the push interlock base plate 9, and the locking member 1 passes through the upper guide hole and the lower guide hole.

[0038] The unit positioning device of the movable drawer unit also includes an auxiliary guide bracket 11 and a guide sleeve 12. The auxiliary guide bracket 11 is mounted on the cover plate 10 and has an auxiliary guide hole. The upper end of the locking member 1 passes through the auxiliary guide hole to provide auxiliary guidance for the locking member 1 above the cover plate 10. The guide sleeve 12 is mounted on the push-interlock base plate 9 of the fixed portion 5. The locking member 1 and the driving member 2 are both embedded in the guide structure of the guide sleeve 12 for movement and guidance.

[0039] This solution requires that the locking member 1 has been inserted into the positioning hole 4 when the main circuit connector of the movable part 6 begins to be plugged in and connected.

[0040] At the same time, because the locking member 1 inserted into the positioning hole 4 is subjected to significant force in the forward and backward directions when the main circuit connector is initially plugged in, the front section of the drive slot 7 is designed to be a straight section. When the main circuit connector of the movable portion 6 is initially plugged in, the drive pin 8 has already entered this straight section, and the locking member 1 has already been inserted into the positioning hole 4. This design prevents the locking member 1 from continuing to insert downward despite being subjected to significant force.

[0041] Therefore, in this embodiment, if Figures 7-9 As shown, the drive chute 7 is a three-section chute, divided from front to back into a first straight section 7-1, a second straight section 7-3, and an inclined section 7-2. The first straight section 7-1 and the second straight section 7-3 are arranged vertically, with the first straight section 7-1 located below the second straight section 7-3. The inclined section 7-2 is located between the first and second straight sections 7-1 and 7-3, connecting them together. When the movable portion 6 is advanced to the test position, the drive pin 8 is located in the middle of the inclined section 7-2. At this point, the drive pin 8 has already driven the locking member 1 into the positioning hole 4, thereby positioning the fixed portion 5.

[0042] To ensure uniform force is applied to the locking member 1, it is positioned adjacent to the propulsion mechanism of the fixed portion 5. Because there is no mounting location on the left side of the propulsion mechanism of the fixed portion 5 in this embodiment, the locking member 1 is positioned adjacent to the right side of the propulsion mechanism. The propulsion mechanism includes a propulsion screw 13 and a nut. The propulsion screw 13 of the propulsion mechanism is mounted on the fixed portion, and the nut is mounted on a screed plate 15 of the movable portion 6. The screed plate 15 is part of the base plate of the movable portion. The movable portion includes the base plate, which is divided into two parts: the front screed plate 15 and the rear base plate. The screed plate 15 is used to mount the nut.

[0043] like Figures 11-14As shown, a movable drawer unit assembly includes a movable drawer unit, a unit chamber 14 and the above-mentioned unit positioning device of the movable drawer unit.

[0044] The movable drawer unit includes a fixed part 5 and a movable part 6. The fixed part 5 includes a push-in interlocking substrate 9 and a slide bracket 18 on both sides of the push-in interlocking substrate 9. A cover plate 10 is installed on the push-in interlocking substrate 9. The fixed part 5 is connected to the movable part 6 through the slide bracket 18 so as to be movably moved forward and backward. The movable part 6 includes a bottom plate, which is divided into two parts, namely a front silk motherboard 15 and a rear bottom plate. The fixed part 5 and the silk motherboard 15 constitute a unit split assembly of the movable drawer unit.

[0045] The three-position operation process of the movable drawer unit in this embodiment is as follows:

[0046] Separation position: The movable drawer unit is inserted into the unit chamber 14, and the locking head of the unit locking plate 16 of the unit locking mechanism is inserted into the locking hole 17 on the unit chamber layer plate 3, locking the movable drawer unit. The movable part 6 of the movable drawer unit is in the separation position, and the locking member 1 is in the initial high position, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 shown.

[0047] Separate to the test position and push: Use the crank handle to shake the screw rod 13 to push the movable part 6 to move. When the movable part 6 is pushed to the test position, the locking member 1 has been inserted into the positioning hole 4 under the drive of the driving member 2. Figure 8 shown.

[0048] Test to push to the connection position: Use the crank handle to push the screw rod 13 to push the movable part 6 to the connection position. During the pushing process, when the main circuit connector of the movable part 6 begins to be plugged in and connected, the driving pin 8 has entered the first straight section 7-1, and the locking member 1 is no longer inserted downward. Figure 9 shown.

[0049] Pull out the movable drawer unit: reverse the above steps and move the movable part 6 to the separation position. When it reaches the separation position, the locking member 1 has been pulled out of the positioning hole 4. Then, by lifting the handle of the unit locking mechanism, the unit locking plate 16 is lifted up, and the locking head of the unit locking plate 16 is disengaged from the locking hole 17 of the unit chamber 14, unlocking the movable drawer unit, and the movable drawer unit can be pulled out of the unit chamber 14.
