Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of leakage protection, in particular to a disconnect plug and a circuit breaker. Background Art
[0002] At present, when users are using electrical equipment, if the electrical equipment sends leakage, in its electrical circuit, there must be a part of the current that does not flow back to the transformer from the live wire through the neutral wire, but flows into the earth through the ground wire or "conductors" such as the human body, forming a "branch" outside the main circuit, thus causing the phenomenon of "leakage".

[0031] At present, when users are using electrical equipment, if the electrical equipment has leakage, in its electrical circuit, there will inevitably be a part of the current that does not flow back to the transformer from the live wire through the neutral wire, but flows into the earth through the ground wire or "conductors" such as the human body, forming a "branch" outside the main circuit, thus causing the phenomenon of "leakage". When this part of the current flows into the earth through the user, it causes the user to be electrocuted, thereby endangering the user's life safety. At this time, leakage is generally avoided by using a circuit breaker. If leakage occurs, the power supply of the electrical equipment will be automatically cut off before the leakage current reaches the current amount that can harm the human body, so as to protect the user's personal safety.
[0032] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, a circuit breaker plug 001 is provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, and the circuit breaker plug 001 includes a first circuit board 100, a circuit breaker assembly, a second circuit board 105, and a pin 170. The circuit breaker assembly is located on the first circuit board 100, and includes a bracket 110, a telescopic member 120, a connecting member 130, and a transmission member 140. The bracket 110 is located on the first circuit board 100, and the connecting member 130 is rotatably connected to the bracket 110. The connecting member 130 is located between the telescopic member 120 and the transmission member 140. One end of the connecting member 130 is engaged with the telescopic member 120, and the other end of the connecting member 130 is in contact with the end face of the transmission member 140. The transmission member 140 is rotatably connected to the bracket 110, and a moving contact 150 is also provided on the transmission member 140. The second circuit board 105 can be located on a side of the bracket 110 away from the first circuit board 100, and a static contact 160 corresponding to the moving contact 150 is provided on a side of the second circuit board 105 close to the first circuit board 100. The pin 170 may be located on a side of the second circuit board 105 away from the first circuit board 100 .
[0033] According to the circuit breaker plug 001 provided by the present disclosure, its pin 170 is used to connect the socket. When the electrical circuit in the electrical device works normally, the telescopic member 120 is shortened. Since the telescopic member 120 and the transmission member 140 are connected to the bracket 110 by rotation, and the transmission member 140 is driven to rotate in the same direction, the moving contact 150 and the static contact 160 are attracted to each other; when the electrical circuit has leakage, the telescopic member 120 is extended, driving the connecting member 130 and the transmission member 140 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the moving contact 150 and the static contact 160 are disconnected, thereby disconnecting the electrical connection between the pin 170 and the socket, so as to disconnect the electrical circuit and avoid the leakage current affecting the personal safety of the user. In addition, the circuit breaker in the present disclosure is small in size, and the structure is relatively simple and compact, which can easily achieve the protection function of leakage current, thereby reducing the production cost.
[0034] The following is a detailed description of the various components of the disconnect plug 001 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0035] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the bracket 110 is provided with a first through hole 240 and a second through hole 250, the second through hole 250 is located on the side of the first through hole 240 away from the first circuit board 100, the connecting member 130 is rotatably connected to the bracket 110 through the first through hole 240, and the transmission member 140 is rotatably connected to the bracket 110 through the second through hole 250.
[0036] Optionally, the telescopic member 120 includes a piston rod 180 and a piston chamber 190 slidably matched with the piston rod 180. The piston rod 180 can be extended or shortened in the piston chamber 190.
[0037] For example, the material of the piston rod 180 is metal. Specifically, the material of the piston rod 180 can be a magnetic metal material, such as iron, cobalt, nickel, etc.
[0038] For example, a coil 200 may be provided in the piston chamber 190. When the pin 170 is inserted into the socket, the coil 200 is energized, thereby generating magnetic force. Since the piston rod 180 is made of magnetic material, the piston rod 180 moves toward the coil 200 to shorten the piston rod 180. When the piston rod 180 shortens, the telescopic member 120 and the transmission member 140 are rotatably connected with the bracket 110, and the transmission member 140 is driven to rotate in the same direction, so that the moving contact 150 and the static contact 160 are attracted to each other. When leakage current is generated in the electrical circuit, the coil 200 loses power, the coil 200 loses magnetic attraction, and the piston rod 180 stops moving toward the coil 200. The moving contact 150 is disconnected from the static contact 160 due to gravity, thereby disconnecting the electrical connection between the pin 170 and the socket, so as to disconnect the electrical circuit and prevent leakage current from affecting the personal safety of the user.
[0039] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the connecting member 130 includes a U-shaped groove 210 and a first protrusion 220 disposed at one end of the U-shaped groove 210, and a second protrusion 230 is disposed at one end of the piston rod 180 away from the piston chamber 190, and the diameter of the second protrusion 230 is greater than the notch width of the U-shaped groove 210. Specifically, the piston rod 180 can pass through the U-shaped groove 210, and the second protrusion 230 can be engaged with the side of the U-shaped groove 210, so that the piston rod 180 is engaged with the U-shaped groove 210 and does not fall off.
[0040] Optionally, the first protrusion 220 is provided with a first convex block 260 corresponding to the first through hole 240, the extension direction of the first convex block 260 is the same as the axial direction of the first through hole 240, and the diameter of the first convex block 260 is the same as the diameter of the first through hole 240. When the first convex block 260 is inserted into the first through hole 240, the connecting member 130 is rotated relative to the bracket 110.
[0041] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the transmission member 140 includes a contact frame and a contact arm 290, the contact arm 290 is fixed on the contact frame, one end of the contact arm 290 is provided with a moving contact 150, the contact frame includes a first contact frame 270 and a second contact frame 280 which are perpendicular to each other, the first contact frame 270 is provided with a second protrusion 300 corresponding to the second through hole 250, the extension direction of the second protrusion 300 is the same as the axial direction of the second through hole 250, the diameter of the second protrusion 300 is the same as the diameter of the second through hole 250, and the side of the second contact frame 280 close to the first circuit board 100 contacts the connector 130. When the second protrusion 300 is inserted into the second through hole 250, the transmission member 140 can be rotated relative to the bracket 110.
[0042] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the disconnect plug 001 further includes an elastic member 310, and a third protrusion 320 is further provided on the bracket 110. The third protrusion 320 is located on the side of the second through hole 250 close to the first circuit board 100. One end of the elastic member 310 is connected to the third protrusion 320, and the other end is connected to the first contact frame 270. Specifically, when the pin 170 is inserted into the socket, the coil 200 is energized, thereby generating magnetic force. Since the piston rod 180 is a magnetic material, the piston rod 180 moves in the direction of the coil 200, driving the connecting member 130 and the transmission member 140 to rotate. Since one end of the elastic member 310 is fixed and the other end is connected to the first contact frame 270 of the transmission member 140, the elastic member 310 is bent to store elastic potential energy. When leakage current is generated in the electrical circuit, the coil 200 loses power, the coil 200 loses magnetic attraction, and the piston rod 180 stops moving in the direction of the coil 200. At this time, the elastic member 310 releases its elastic potential energy, driving the transmission member 140 to move in the opposite direction to disconnect the moving contact 150 from the static contact 160, thereby disconnecting the electrical connection between the pin 170 and the socket, thereby disconnecting the electrical circuit and preventing leakage current from affecting the personal safety of the user.
[0043] Optionally, the elastic member 310 is a spring, and the length extension direction of the spring is the same as the length extension direction of the first contact frame 270. It can be understood that the spring is vertically arranged and is not in a compressed or extended state.
[0044] The present disclosure also provides a circuit breaker, such as Figure 3 As shown, the circuit breaker includes a base 330, a cover 340 and the above-mentioned circuit breaker plug 001. The base 330 and the cover 340 are detachably matched. When the base 330 and the cover 340 are closed, there is a receiving cavity. The circuit breaker plug 001 is located in the receiving cavity, and the pins 170 of the circuit breaker plug 001 are exposed on the end surface of the base 330.
[0045] It should be understood that the present disclosure does not limit its application to the detailed structure and arrangement of the components proposed in this specification. The circuit breaker plug 001 and the circuit breaker of the present disclosure can have other embodiments and can be implemented and executed in a variety of ways. The aforementioned deformation forms and modified forms fall within the scope of the present disclosure. It should be understood that the present disclosure disclosed and defined in this specification extends to all alternative combinations of two or more individual features mentioned or evident in the text and / or the drawings. All these different combinations constitute multiple alternative aspects of the present disclosure. The embodiments of the circuit breaker plug 001 and the circuit breaker of this specification illustrate the best known methods for implementing the present disclosure and will enable those skilled in the art to utilize the present disclosure.
