DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0033] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0034] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a small leakage circuit breaker, including a circuit breaker body 1 and a leakage protection mechanism 2 installed on one side of the circuit breaker body 1, the leakage protection mechanism 2 includes a leakage indicator column 3, a first spring 4, a lock 5, a push rod 6, a second spring 7, an electromagnet 8, and a leakage detection control circuit board 9.
[0035] Specifically, as shown in Figure Figure 1 and 2 As shown, a leakage indication hole 10 is provided on the housing of the leakage protection mechanism 2, and a leakage indication guide block 11 corresponding to the position of the leakage indication hole 10 is provided inside the leakage protection mechanism 2. Two leakage indication guide blocks 11 are provided, one on the left and one on the right, located on both sides of the leakage indication column 3. A leakage indication guide groove for accommodating the leakage indication column 3 to slide freely is formed between the two leakage indication guide blocks 11. The two leakage indication guide blocks 11 form guide limits from both sides of the leakage indication column 3, and the leakage indication column 3 slides The leakage indicator column 3 is movably installed in the leakage indication guide groove, and one end can extend out of the leakage protection mechanism 2 from the leakage indication hole 10. The leakage indication hole 10 and the leakage indication guide block 11 guide the movement of the leakage indication column 3. At the same time, the leakage indication hole 10 is also used to observe the position of the leakage indication column 3; a boss limit 31 is provided at the upper end of the leakage indication column 3, and a convex step 32 is provided in the middle for installing the first spring 4. A leakage indication column hook 33 is provided at one end of the leakage indication column 3 located inside the leakage protection mechanism 2, which is used to clamp the lock buckle 5.
[0036] When the push rod 6 is in the first position, the lock hook 52 is hooked and connected with the leakage indicator column hook 33;
[0037] When the push rod 6 is in the second position, the lock hook 52 is separated from the leakage indicator column hook 33 .
[0038] In the above embodiment, the leakage indication column 3 can slide along the leakage indication hole 10 and the leakage indication guide block 11 under the action of external force.
[0039] In the above embodiment, the structure of the lock buckle 5 is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 (a) is a front view of the lock 5. Figure 6 (b) is a back view of the lock buckle 5; the lock buckle hook 52 at one end of the lock buckle 5 can be inserted into the leakage indicator column hook 33 at the end of the leakage indicator column 3, so that the leakage indicator column 3 cannot move to the outside of the leakage protection mechanism 2, and the other end is in contact with the push rod 6. When the leakage indicator column hook 3 is detached from the lock buckle 5, one end of the leakage indicator column 3 is exposed from the leakage indication hole 10 on the outer shell of the leakage protection mechanism 2.
[0040] In the above embodiment, the outer end surface of the lock hook 52 is a smooth arc surface. When the lock hook 52 is disengaged from the leakage indicator column hook 33, the leakage indicator column hook 33 is ejected toward the leakage indicator hole 10 by the elastic force of the first spring 4. At this time, when resetting is required, the leakage indicator column 3 is pressed, and the outer end surface of the leakage indicator column hook 33 contacts the outer end surface of the lock hook 52. Since the outer end surface of the lock hook 52 is an arc surface, the leakage indicator column hook 33 can be easily inserted into the inner side of the lock hook 52 to complete the hook connection and achieve resetting.
[0041] In the above embodiment, the lock buckle 5 is provided with a positioning hole 51 for the positioning shaft to pass through, and the bottom surface is provided with a groove 53 for installing the torsion spring 13. The torsion force of the torsion spring 13 makes the lock buckle tend to rotate clockwise.
[0042] In the above embodiment, the structure of the push rod 6 is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 (a) is a front view of the push rod 6, Figure 7 (b) is a left view of the push rod 6; the push rod 6 is installed inside the leakage protection mechanism 2 and slides in the push rod guide groove 12 under the action of the second spring 7. A push rod boss 61 is provided on one side of one end of the push rod, which is connected to the main body boss 14 in the leakage protection mechanism 2 by the second spring 7, and the other side is connected to the electromagnet 8, and the other end is in contact with the lock 5.
[0043] In the above embodiment, the leakage indication guide block 11 can prevent the leakage indication column 3 from deflecting, thereby improving the reliability of the movement of the leakage indication device.
[0044] In the above embodiment, the push rod 6 can slide in the push rod guide groove 12 under the thrust of the second spring 7. The push rod guide groove 12 can prevent the push rod 6 from deflecting, thereby improving the reliability of the movement of the push rod device.
[0045] In the above embodiment, the arc isolation wall 15 is used to protect the leakage detection control circuit board 9 from being damaged by the arc.
[0046] In the above embodiment, the function of the electromagnet 8 is to drive the electromagnet 8 to operate and disconnect the circuit breaker when the leakage detection control circuit board 9 detects the existence of leakage current in the circuit.
[0047] In the above embodiment, the leakage detection control circuit board 9 is used to detect whether there is leakage in the circuit.
[0048] The working principle of the embodiment of the utility model:
[0049] Under normal circumstances, the lock hook 52 at the end of the lock buckle 5 is inserted into the leakage indicator column hook 33 at one end of the leakage indicator column 3. When a leakage fault occurs in the circuit breaker, the electromagnet 8 moves to the right under the drive of the leakage detection control circuit board 9, and the push rod 6 slides to the right along the push rod guide groove 12 under the thrust of the second spring 7. The other end of the push rod pushes the lock, overcomes the torsion spring force at the bottom of the lock buckle 5, and makes the lock buckle 5 rotate counterclockwise around the axis, so that the lock hook 52 of the lock buckle 5 is separated from the leakage indicator column hook 33 at the end of the leakage indicator column 3. Then, the leakage indicator column 3 moves toward the outside of the leakage protection mechanism 2 along the leakage indication hole 10 and the leakage indication guide block 11 under the elastic force of the first spring 4 until the leakage indicator column 3 moves to the position of the boss limit 31 and the leakage indication hole 10 of the leakage protection mechanism 2. At this time, it is possible to judge whether the cause of the circuit breaker tripping is a leakage fault by inspecting the position of the leakage indicator column 3. After the fault is eliminated, the leakage indicator column 3 only needs to be pressed down, the lock hook 52 is locked into the leakage indicator column hook 33, and the push rod 6 is automatically reset under the action of the reset spring of the electromagnet 8 and the lock torsion spring 13, and the circuit breaker can be used again.
