Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of power distribution switches, in particular to an arc-proof power distribution switch. Background Art

[0002] When the switch is disconnected, an arc will be generated between the silver points or contacts. The most obvious appearance characteristics of arc discharge are bright arc columns and electrode spots. The arc is a beam of high-temperature ionized gas. Under the action of external forces, such as airflow, external magnetic field and even the magnetic field generated by the arc itself, it will move rapidly, stretch, and curl to form a very complex shape. Existing distribution switches will generate high-temperature and high-voltage arcs when in use, which will cause serious or even fatal burns to the human body.

[0003] After searching, Chinese patent publication (announcement) number CN220914071U discloses an arc-proof distribution switch, including a shell, a support plate fixedly connected to the outer wall of the shell, a switch box fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support plate, a second wire arranged on the inner wall of the switch box, a first wire arranged on the inner wall of the shell, and a telescopic device arranged on the outer wall of the first wire. By pulling out the pull rod, the top seat of the arc-proof distribution switch will no longer be fixed, and the support spring will no longer be stretched. At this time, the stretching force will be released and rebound immediately, and the support column supported by the top seat will also be released by the second small spring inside, and the top seat will be directly bounced off, so that the top seat can quickly drive the plug head and the power column away from the switch box, and quickly perform the power-off operation, so as to prevent the equipment from being separated in time after the arc is generated, resulting in the arc causing damage to the equipment.

[0004] Although the distribution switch of the above patent can quickly cut off power, it cannot perform arc extinguishing operation well. If the arc extinguishing time is long, it will cause damage to the moving and static contacts of the distribution switch. At the same time, the fault current will also damage the line and the electrical equipment in the line, which is easy to cause safety accidents and cause great losses to users. Therefore, it is necessary to design an arc-proof distribution switch to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

When a fault occurs in the line, the arc generated causes the moving contact 6 to rotate a certain angle, and the arc extinguishing grid 3 works. The arc is evenly divided into multiple short arcs. When the AC current passes through zero, all short arcs will be extinguished. At the same time, the arc extinguishing grid 3 will dissipate heat to achieve the effect of arc extinguishing. The heat dissipated by the arc extinguishing grid 3 and the high-pressure gas generated during arc extinguishing will be discharged to the left side of the distribution switch. Multiple insulating columns 8 will buffer and reduce part of the air pressure to increase the ability to resist arcs and air pressure. The guide plate 9 will guide the reduced gas and discharge it to the outside through multiple exhaust holes 10 on the top to ensure the high efficiency of power extinguishing in the distribution switch.
