[0036] Example 1

[0037] This embodiment provides a mounting structure for a molded case circuit breaker, as shown in the attached Figure 2-5 As shown, the molded case circuit breaker is installed on the drawer body 11, and one side of the drawer body 11 is a rear cover plate 111, which is used to form an input and output electrical connection effect with external connection components, and the other side of the drawer body 11 is a front cover plate 112, and the front cover plate 112 and the rear cover plate 111 are located at the front side of the drawer body 11, and the other is located at the rear side of the drawer body 11. The front cover plate 112 is specifically a panel, and the handle cooperates with the operating mechanism on one side of the panel to form the opening and closing operation of the molded case circuit breaker. This is the prior art, so it is not described in detail in this embodiment. The rear cover plate 111 of the drawer body 11 is provided with a wiring terminal 113.

[0038] The mounting structure includes:

[0039] The circuit breaker body 12 is provided with a first terminal 121 and a second terminal 122; the circuit breaker body 12 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the first terminal 121 and the second terminal 122 are respectively located on two short side walls. That is, one is formed in front and one is behind, and the short side wall and the rear cover 111 are arranged in parallel. The first terminal 121 extends to the outside through the rear cover 111 of the drawer body 11, and the part of the first terminal 121 extending to the outside is provided with a quick plug assembly, and the quick plug assembly here realizes the electrical connection effect through plug-in matching. Compared with the electrical connection method of bolt connection, the electrical connection effect can be realized without tools. Here, the number of phase lines of the first terminal 121 is consistent with the number of phase lines of the second terminal 122, which can be adjusted according to actual needs. The second terminal 122 is electrically connected to the terminal 113 through the conductive bar 13. Here, a certain creepage gap is provided between two adjacent conductive bars 13 to prevent creepage. An insulating sleeve may be provided on the conductive bar 13 to improve the insulation level between the two adjacent conductive bars 13 .

[0040] With this structural arrangement, the first terminal 121 of the circuit breaker body 12 partially extends to the outside of the drawer body 11, and an electrical connection effect is formed through the quick connector assembly, making it easier to connect the entire drawer-type switch cabinet to the outside, eliminating the wiring process and making coordination more convenient.

[0041] Specifically, as attached Figure 2 As shown, the circuit breaker body 12 is provided with a fixing portion 14, and the fixing portion 14 abuts against the inner wall of the drawer body 11, specifically against the inner wall of the rear cover plate 111 of the drawer body 11. The setting of the fixing portion 14 forms a limit fixing effect, so that the connection and fixation between the circuit breaker body 12 and the drawer body 11 is more stable. The number of the fixing portions 14 can be selected according to actual needs, and can be one or two or three or four. In this embodiment, only four fixing portions 14 are described as an example, and the four fixing portions 14 are grouped in pairs, one group of which is arranged at the two ends of the top surface of the circuit breaker body 12, and the other group is arranged at the two ends of the bottom surface of the circuit breaker body 12. In addition, the circuit breaker body 12 can also be installed with the rear cover plate 111 in a snap-on manner, and can also be installed with the rear cover plate 111 in a spring-leaf manner.

[0042] Specifically, the bolt passes through the drawer body 11 and is connected to the fixing portion 14. The bolt fixing method further improves the fixing strength between the two and prevents the circuit breaker body 12 from shaking during the plug-in and pull-out matching process. Here, the bolt can pass through the rear cover plate 111 from the outside of the rear cover plate 111 to connect and fix with the fixing portion 14, or the bolt can pass through the fixing portion 14 and the rear cover plate 111 to form a fixation.

[0043] Specifically, as attached Figure 3-5As shown, the quick connector assembly includes at least two groups of connectors 15, and an insulating partition 16 is provided between two adjacent groups of connectors 15. The provision of the insulating partition 16 forms an insulating isolation effect. In this embodiment, the number of connectors 15 is three, so the number of insulating partitions 16 is two, and the two insulating partitions 16 are connected and fixed to the first terminal 121 to form an insulating isolation effect.

[0044] Specifically, the connectors 15 are staggered in distribution. The staggered distribution increases the creepage distance and further improves the overall insulation isolation effect. In this embodiment, there are three connectors 15, so a stepped distribution structure is formed, that is, the first connector 15 is placed in the lowest position, the second connector 15 is placed in the middle position, and the third connector 15 is placed in the highest position, and each connector 15 is not located in the same column.

[0045] Specifically, as attached Figure 5 As shown, the connector 15 is provided with a clamping cavity 151, and the clamping cavity 151 is provided with a clamping opening 152. The setting of the clamping opening 152 allows the external connection component to pass through the clamping opening 152 and enter the clamping cavity 151, thereby improving the electrical connection effect. In this embodiment, the clamping opening 152 is located at the front end of the clamping cavity 151, and the size of the clamping opening 152 is smaller than the size of the clamping cavity 151, thereby forming a shrinking effect. In addition, the elastic clamping effect of the clamping cavity 151 can also be increased by structures such as a retaining spring.

[0046] Specifically, as attached Figure 5 As shown, the clamping cavity 151 is provided with a raised portion 153 near the clamping opening 152. Here, there are two raised portions 153, which are symmetrically arranged and raised toward the opposite raised portion 153 to form a further clamping effect. The arrangement of the raised portion 153 increases the contact area between the connector 15 and the external connection component, improves the overall clamping and fixing effect, and thus improves the stability of the overall electrical connection.

[0047] Specifically, as attached Figure 4 As shown, the first terminal 121 is provided with a chamber 17. In this embodiment, there are three chambers 17, which are arranged from left to right, and the insulating partition 16 is accommodated between two adjacent chambers 17. The first connector 15 is accommodated at the lowest position of the leftmost chamber 17, the second connector 15 is accommodated at the middle position of the middle chamber 17, and the third connector 15 is located at the highest position of the rightmost chamber 17. The connectors 15 are accommodated in the chambers 17 respectively. In simple terms, part of the connector 15 is located in the chamber 17, and the rest of the connector 15 extends outward. The provision of the chamber 17 further improves the fixing effect of the connector 15, and at the same time forms an insulating isolation, so that the external connection part can better form a matching effect with the first terminal 121.

[0048] Specifically, the conductive bar 13 is bolted or welded to the connection terminal 113. Bolt connection or welding connection both achieves an electrical connection effect, making the electrical connection more stable.

[0049] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. The obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the invention of the utility model.
