[0030] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and in conjunction with the drawings.

[0031] The specific structure is shown in Figures 1 to 10 .

[0032] The embodiment provides an arc extinguishing structure of a contact system, the arc extinguishing structure comprising: an arc extinguishing chamber 1, a moving arc initiation piece 2, a first gas generating piece 3 and a second gas generating piece 4, the contact system comprising a short moving contact 5 and a stationary contact; the arc extinguishing chamber 1 is provided with a plurality of arc extinguishing fins 6 arranged in sequence, the arc extinguishing fin 6 comprises a base 7 and a pair of spaced legs 8 located on both sides of the base 7, the first gas generating piece 3 and the second gas generating piece 4 are respectively covered on the pair of legs 8 of all the arc extinguishing fins 6; the moving arc initiation piece 2 comprises at least one first moving arc initiation plate 9, along the length direction of the first moving arc initiation plate 9, the first moving arc initiation plate 9 comprises a first end portion 10 located at one end of the first moving arc initiation plate 9, a first arc initiation portion 11 located at the other end of the first moving arc initiation plate 9 and a first intermediate connecting portion 12 located between the two ends of the first moving arc initiation plate 9, the first end portion 10 is located at one end of the arc extinguishing chamber 1 along the arrangement direction of the arc extinguishing fin 6, and corresponds to the base 7, the first arc initiation portion 11 is V-shaped and comprises a first segment 13 and a second segment 14, the first segment 13 is connected with the first intermediate connecting portion 12, and the second segment 14 corresponds to the short moving contact 5 and is matched with the short moving contact 5; along the width direction of the first moving arc initiation plate 9, the width of the first end portion 10 and the width of the second segment 14 are both greater than the width of the first intermediate connecting portion 12.

[0033] In the embodiment, when only one first moving arc initiation plate 9 is provided, the first intermediate connecting portion 12 is located between the first gas generating piece 3 and the second gas generating piece 4, and the second segment 14 is located outside the first gas generating piece 3 and the second gas generating piece 4. Since the width of the first intermediate connecting portion 12 is contracted relative to the first end portion 10 and the second segment 14, the current density can be increased, the arc root magnetic blowing force can be strengthened, the moving arc root can be transferred conveniently, and the gas space between the arc extinguishing fin 6 is increased to form a backflow air channel to avoid airflow rebound and vortex; since the width of the second segment 14 is greater than the width of the first intermediate connecting portion 12, when the short moving contact 5 is arced at both sides in the width direction, the arc moving arc root can be smoothly transferred to the first moving arc initiation plate 9 on the second segment 14 with a larger width, so as to prevent continuous burning at the edges of the short moving contact 5 in the width direction. Since the first arc initiation portion 11 is V-shaped, the current flow direction is opposite, which is beneficial to increase the local magnetic field strength of the moving arc root and accelerate the arc transfer.

[0034] It should be noted that the arc-extinguishing grid sheet 6 can also only include the base 7, at this time the first gas generating member 3 and the second gas generating member 4 are located on both sides of the base 7 respectively.

[0035] In this embodiment, the width of the first end portion 10 can also be not greater than the width of the first intermediate connecting portion 12, which is specifically determined according to actual needs.

[0036] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the moving arc guiding member 2 further includes a second moving arc guiding plate 22, and the contact system further includes a long moving contact 15, which is located at the middle of the short moving contact 5 and protrudes from the short moving contact 5; along the length direction of the second moving arc guiding plate 22, the second moving arc guiding plate 22 includes a second end portion located at one end of the second moving arc guiding plate 22, a second arc guiding portion 16 located at the other end of the second moving arc guiding plate 22, and a second intermediate connecting portion 17 located between the two ends of the second moving arc guiding plate 22, the second end portion is located at one end of the arc-extinguishing chamber 1 along the arrangement direction of the arc-extinguishing grid sheet 6, and corresponds to the base 7, the second arc guiding portion 16 is bent towards or away from the stationary contact relative to the second intermediate connecting portion 17 and corresponds to and cooperates with the long moving contact 15.

[0037] Because the conventional arc-extinguishing chamber 1 with a long contact sheet (also known as an arc contact, i.e., the long moving contact 15 of the present application) in the prior art, when designing the contact system, it is deliberately designed to be short contact sheet (i.e., the short moving contact 5 of the present application) first separation, long contact sheet after separation logic (i.e., the short contact sheet and the long contact sheet exist when opening time difference), the purpose is that the contact only on the long contact sheet when opening arc. However, the actual design deviation leads to the opening time difference of the short contact sheet and the long contact sheet being too small, and as the client voltage increases, the short contact sheet will arc, the conventional arc guiding structure cannot arc, resulting in the arc cannot enter the arc-extinguishing chamber 1, and the breaking fails.

[0038] In this embodiment, in view of the problems existing in the prior art described above, the moving arc guiding member 2 is designed to further include a second moving arc guiding plate 22, the first moving arc guiding plate 9 and the second moving arc guiding plate 22 guide the arc for the short moving contact 5 and the long moving contact 15 respectively, and because the first moving arc guiding plate 9 cooperates with the short moving contact 5 to effectively guide the arc into the arc-extinguishing chamber 1, the breaking effect can be effectively guaranteed.

[0039] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the second arc guiding portion 16 is V-shaped and includes a third segment 18 and a fourth segment 19, the third segment 18 is connected with the second intermediate connecting portion 17, and the fourth segment 19 corresponds to and cooperates with the long moving contact 15. It is beneficial to increase the local magnetic field strength of the moving arc root and accelerate the arc transfer.

[0040] In an optional technical solution of this embodiment, the moving arc guiding member 2 includes two first moving arc guiding plates 9 and one second moving arc guiding plate 22, and the second moving arc guiding plate 22 is located between the two first moving arc guiding plates 9. It is compact and occupies small space. Figure 6As shown, the first arc striking part 11 of the two first arc striking plates 9 is V-shaped and the V-shaped opening faces away from the static contact, and the second arc striking part 16 is V-shaped and the V-shaped opening faces the static contact. Preferably, the second arc striking part 16 is V-shaped and the V-shaped opening faces away from the static contact.

[0041] In an optional technical solution of the embodiment, the first end part 10 of the two first arc striking plates 9 is connected or integrally formed; and / or the second section 14 of the two first arc striking plates 9 is connected or integrally formed at the end away from the first section 13. This facilitates manufacturing and improves the arc striking effect.

[0042] In an optional technical solution of the embodiment, the second end part of the second arc striking plate 22 is connected or integrally formed with the first end part 10 of at least one of the two first arc striking plates 9.

[0043] In the embodiment, the second end part of the second arc striking plate 22 can be connected or integrally formed with the first end part 10 of any one of the two first arc striking plates 9. Preferably, the second end part of the second arc striking plate 22 is connected or integrally formed with the first end part 10 of the two first arc striking plates 9, which facilitates manufacturing and improves the overall arc striking effect. In addition, the second section 14 of the two first arc striking plates 9 is connected or integrally formed at the end away from the first section 13, and the first arc striking plate 9 and the second arc striking plate 22 form an integrated arc striking member 2.

[0044] In an optional technical solution of the embodiment, the short movable contact 5 includes at least two short movable contact pieces, and preferably the width of the second section 14 of the arc striking member 2 is greater than the width of the short movable contact 5. Figure 2 As shown, the first arc striking part 11 is V-shaped and the V-shaped opening faces away from the static contact.

[0045] In the embodiment, when the arc striking member 2 includes one first arc striking plate 9, the width of the second section 14 of the arc striking plate is greater than the width of the short movable contact 5; when the arc striking member 2 includes two first arc striking plates 9, the width of the second section 14 of the two arc striking plates is greater than the width of the short movable contact 5, which effectively ensures the arc striking effect.

[0046] In the embodiment, the long movable contact 15 includes at least one long movable contact piece, and the width of the second arc striking plate 22 is greater than or equal to the width of the long movable contact 15, which effectively ensures the arc striking effect.

[0047] Preferably, the number of short movable contact pieces on each side of the long movable contact 15 is greater than the number of long movable contact pieces. Increasing the number of short movable contact pieces increases the current carrying capacity of the contact system. At the same time, when the arc is struck on both sides of the short movable contact 5 in the width direction, the arc root can be smoothly transferred to the first arc striking plate 9 on the second section 14 with a larger width, preventing continuous burning at the edges of the short movable contact 5 in the width direction.

[0048] As shown,Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the first moving arc-initiating plate 9 is located outside the first gas-generating element 3 and the second gas-generating element 4, and the second arc-initiating part 16 of the second moving arc-initiating plate 22 is located between the first gas-generating element 3 and the second gas-generating element 4. A narrow slit is formed between the first gas-generating element 3 and the second gas-generating element 4 to accelerate the entry of the arc of the long moving contact 15 into the arc-extinguishing chamber.

[0049] Furthermore, such as Figure 11 As shown, two partitions 23 are provided on both sides of the second moving arc-inducing plate 22, forming a narrow slit between the two partitions 23. The two partitions 23 form a narrow slit between the first gas-generating component 3 and the second gas-generating component 4, respectively. The first intermediate connecting parts 12 of the two first moving arc-inducing plates 9 are located in the two narrow slits, respectively, and the second section 14 is located outside the first gas-generating component 3 and the second gas-generating component 4.

[0050] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, a static arc-inducing element 20 is also included. One end of the static arc-inducing element 20 is located at the other end of the arc-extinguishing chamber 1 along the arrangement direction of the arc-extinguishing grid plates 6. The minimum distance between the moving arc-inducing element 2 and the static arc-inducing element 20 is greater than the maximum opening distance of the contact system. When there is an arc voltage drop, a second breakdown point will be formed, far away from the silver point of the contact, to avoid severe contact erosion.

[0051] In the optional technical solution of this embodiment, the first gas generating element 3 is provided with a chamfer 21 on the side near the short-moving contact; and / or the second gas generating element 4 is provided with a chamfer 21 on the side near the short-moving contact.

[0052] In this embodiment, the chamfer 21 can form a narrow channel in the gas generating area, which is beneficial to increase the gas blowing effect and accelerate the transfer and extinguishing of the electric arc. At the same time, the chamfer 21 structure is designed to match the structure of the first moving arc-initiating plate 9, which is beneficial to the transfer of the arc root of the edge arc to the arc extinguishing chamber 1.
