[0002] As an important component of low-voltage electrical appliances, the performance indicators of molded case circuit breakers can constrain the development of an industry. As the application of molded case circuit breakers continues to expand, new requirements have been put forward for their design. For example, the requirements for fast disconnection of small currents are widely used in the fields of petrochemicals and new energy. In the traditional layout of the release, the U-shaped design of the static iron core has only one magnetic circuit, and the magnetic force acting part between the inlet and outlet ends is in a straight row. When the current passing through the conductor is small, the magnetic field is weak and the magnetic lines of force are sparsely distributed, which makes it impossible to generate enough suction to drive the armature and the iron core to close. Summary of the invention

[0009] Preferably, the serpentine turning portion of the conductor is stacked in multiple layers.
[0010] Preferably, the connection portion between the serpentine turning portion of the conductor and the conductor mounting portion is located on the side of the armature.
[0011] Preferably, the end surfaces of the wing portion and the spacer portion of the static iron core are on the same horizontal plane.

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0025] The present embodiment provides a technical solution: the present solution discloses a magnetizing tripping structure for a circuit breaker, comprising a static iron core 1, a conductor 2 and an armature 3, wherein the static iron core 1 is provided with a bottom surface 13 and two wings 11 bent in the same direction, wherein the conductor 2 comprises an inlet terminal 21, a magnetic force action portion, a connecting portion 25, a mounting portion 24 and an outlet terminal 22 according to the direction of current flow, wherein the current enters from the inlet terminal 21 and exits from the outlet terminal 22, wherein the magnetic force action portion of the conductor 2 is located between the wings of the static iron core 1, and when the conductor 2 passes current, the armature 3 is subjected to the action of electromagnetic attraction and rotates counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 31, thereby causing the armature 3 and the static iron core 1 to be in contact with each other. The end face 14 of the wing 11 is closed to achieve the purpose of line disconnection. In one embodiment, the magnetic force acting part of the conductor 2 is provided with a serpentine turning part 23 that turns once. The serpentine travel direction is parallel to the mainstream direction of the current, that is, the line from the upper left outlet terminal 21 to the mounting part 24. A spacer 12 is provided between the two wings 11 of the static iron core 1. At this time, the cross section of the static iron core 1 forms an E shape. The spacer 12 passes through the gap between the serpentine turning parts 23 of the conductor 2 so that the position of its end face 14 corresponds to the position of the end face 14 of the wing 11. In this embodiment, the end faces 14 of the wing 11 and the spacer 12 are on the same horizontal plane. Of course, the serpentine travel direction can also be perpendicular to the mainstream direction of the tripping structure current or other equivalent directions.
[0026] Since a spacer 12 is added between the wings 11 of the static iron core 1 in this example, the cross-section of the static iron core 1 is irregular. Although it can be made by other processes such as powder metallurgy, in order to reduce the difficulty of processing, the static iron core 1 can be a split structure. The wings of the split static iron core 1 are close to each other to form the spacer 12. The cross-section of the split structure of each static iron core 1 is U-shaped, and the difficulty of processing is greatly reduced. In the embodiment of the present application where the serpentine turning part 23 is a one-time turning, the number of the split structures of the static iron core 1 is two.
[0027] When the serpentine turning portion 23 turns more than once, in order to control the lateral space, the serpentine turning portion 23 of the conductor 2 can also be stacked in multiple layers. For example, in the embodiment shown in the drawings, the serpentine turning portion 23 that turns three times is stacked in two layers.
[0028] When the serpentine turning part 23 turns an odd number of times, for example, the connection part 25 between the serpentine turning part 23 of the conductor 2 and the conductor 2 mounting part 24 is located on the side of the armature 3. When it turns an even number of times, it can be directly connected through the bottom.
[0029] A screw fixing hole is provided on the serpentine turning portion 23 of the conductor 2, and a screw fixing hole is also provided on the corresponding position of the bottom surface 13 of the static iron core 1. The static iron core 1 is fixedly connected to the conductor 2 using fasteners through the corresponding screw fixing holes. In one embodiment, the screw fixing hole provided on the serpentine turning portion 23 of the conductor 2 is configured for each serpentine edge, and a screw fixing hole is also provided on the split structure of each static iron core 1.
[0030] Based on the same inventive concept, the present application also discloses a circuit breaker, which may be a molded case circuit breaker. The circuit breaker includes a release assembly, and the release assembly includes the above-mentioned magnetizing release structure for the circuit breaker.
