Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of low-voltage electrical appliances, in particular to a housing of a circuit breaker and a DC circuit breaker. Background Art
[0002] There is a critical disconnect current or small current in the DC power system. Since DC does not have the characteristic of zero current like AC, the arc is not easy to extinguish.
[0003] An arc extinguishing channel is usually provided in the shell of a DC circuit breaker. One end of the arc extinguishing channel is arranged in the contact area of the contact and the other end is adjacent to the arc extinguishing component. Since the arc is not easy to extinguish in the DC power system, it is easy to cause the shell to burn. In some cases, if the creepage distance is not enough, it may even cause the product to arc or burn directly.
[0004] like Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the shell is composed of a base and a cover body, the arc extinguishing channel is usually composed of arc isolation plates forming the top wall and the bottom wall, and the side walls are usually composed of convex ribs on the base and the cover body, and at the position where the arc extinguishing channel is adjacent to the arc extinguishing component installation area, the base and the cover body are respectively provided with arc isolation plate limiting ribs 211 for limiting the arc isolation plate, however, the arc isolation plate limiting rib 211 is located in the arc striking channel and adjacent to the arc extinguishing component, and therefore, the arc isolation plate limiting rib 211 is easily severely burned.
[0005] In addition, since the arc isolation plate needs to be positioned, in order to adapt to the positioning structure, the size of the arc isolation plate is subject to design restrictions, resulting in the creepage distance of the arc extinguishing channel being relatively limited.

[0050] The following is a further description of the specific implementation of the circuit breaker of the present utility model in conjunction with the embodiments given in the accompanying drawings. The circuit breaker of the present utility model is not limited to the description of the following embodiments.
[0051] The specific implementation scheme of the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0052] A DC circuit breaker generally includes a housing, a contact system, an arc extinguishing assembly, a release and an operating mechanism. The contact system is generally composed of a moving contact and a static contact. The contact and disengagement of the moving contact and the static contact are controlled by the operating mechanism. The release is used to drive the operating mechanism to trip in time when an abnormality occurs in the circuit system, thereby disconnecting the moving contact and the static contact. The arc extinguishing assembly is usually an arc extinguishing chamber, which is used to extinguish the arc generated when the moving contact and the static contact are disconnected.
[0053] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figures 4 and 7, a housing of a circuit breaker of this embodiment is applied to the above-mentioned DC circuit breaker, and the housing includes: a base 110, a cover 120, a first arc isolation plate 130 and a second arc isolation plate 140. The base 110 and the cover 120 are relatively buckled to form a circuit breaker cavity. The first arc isolation plate 130 and the second arc isolation plate 140 are relatively spaced and located between the base 110 and the cover 120. The base 110, the first arc isolation plate 130, the second arc isolation plate 140 and the cover 120 are sequentially arranged in the thickness direction of the circuit breaker. The shell is provided with an arc extinguishing component installation position 150 and an arc extinguishing channel 160, and the arc extinguishing channel 160 is arranged adjacent to the arc extinguishing component installation position 150; the arc extinguishing component is installed in the arc extinguishing component installation position 150, and the first arc isolation plate 130 and the second arc isolation plate 140 are relatively spaced apart to respectively form the bottom wall and the top wall of the arc extinguishing channel 160; the base 110 and / or the cover body 120 are provided with convex ribs to form the side walls of the arc extinguishing channel 160, and of course, the convex ribs forming the side walls can also be formed by convex ribs on a single-sided base 110 or a single-sided cover body 120.
[0054] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 2 , 5As shown in , 6, the first arc isolation plate 130 is provided with a first convex edge 131 extending in the thickness direction at the position where it abuts against the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150, and a first limiting step 111 is provided in the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150 in the base 110 at a position corresponding to the first convex edge 131 for abutting against the first convex edge 131. After the arc extinguishing assembly is installed to the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150, the first convex edge 131 abuts against the arc extinguishing assembly; the second arc isolation plate 140 is provided with a second convex edge 141 extending in the thickness direction at the position where it abuts against the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150, and a second limiting step 121 is provided in the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150 in the cover body 120 at a position corresponding to the second convex edge 141 for abutting against the second convex edge 141. After the arc extinguishing assembly is installed to the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150, the second convex edge 141 abuts against the arc extinguishing assembly. In this way, the first arc isolation plate 130 and the second arc isolation plate 140 can be directly abutted against the arc extinguishing assembly by extending the structure at this position, and there is no shell structure between the two, thereby avoiding the problem of the shell structure being burned in the arc extinguishing channel and further protecting the safety of the shell.
[0055] In this embodiment, ribs are provided on the base 110 and / or the cover body 120 to form the upper side wall and the lower side wall of the arc extinguishing channel 160. In this embodiment, the upper side wall is respectively composed of a third rib 117 on the base 110 and a fourth rib 127 on the cover body 120, and a notch leading to the outside of the shell is provided below the contact installation area corresponding to the lower side wall. The notch leads to the outside of the shell, so that during the electrical life test, the arc is led downward to avoid the arc stagnation between the moving and static contacts, which may cause serious burning of the moving and static contacts.
[0056] Furthermore, the lower side wall includes a first convex rib 112 disposed on the base 110 and a second convex rib 122 disposed on the cover 120 , and the notch includes a first notch 118 disposed on the first convex rib 112 and a second notch 128 disposed on the second convex rib 122 .
[0057] In this embodiment, convex ribs are provided on the base 110 and the cover 120 to form an upper side wall of the arc extinguishing channel 160 , and the upper side wall includes a third convex rib 117 on the base 110 and a fourth convex rib 127 on the cover 120 .
[0058] Furthermore, a first limiting step 111 is provided at a position corresponding to the first flange 131 at an edge within the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150 of the base 110 for abutting the first flange 131, and a height of the first limiting step 111 is smaller than a height of the first flange 131; a second limiting step 121 is provided at a position corresponding to the second flange 141 at an edge within the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150 of the cover body 120 for abutting the second flange 141, and a height of the second limiting step 121 is smaller than a height of the second flange 141. The first limiting step 111 and the second limiting step 121 are located in the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150. After the arc extinguishing assembly is installed in the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150, the first limiting step 111, the arc extinguishing assembly, and the second limiting step 121 are stacked in the thickness direction of the circuit breaker, that is, the arc extinguishing assembly is provided to shield the first limiting step 111 and the second limiting step 121, and there is no shell structure between the arc extinguishing assembly and the first convex edge 131 and the second convex edge 141. The arc enters the arc extinguishing chamber of the arc extinguishing assembly from the first arc isolation plate 130 and the second arc isolation plate 140, and will not burn the first limiting step 111 and the second limiting step 121, further protecting the safety of the shell; the first limiting step 111 and the second limiting step 121 play a role in positioning the arc extinguishing assembly before safety. Obviously, the first limiting step 111 and the second limiting step 121 may not be provided as needed.
[0059] In this embodiment, a plurality of first limiting ribs 113 arranged in parallel and relatively perpendicular to the first convex edge 131 are further arranged on the first limiting step 111. The ends of the plurality of first limiting ribs 113 are flush with the limiting surface of the first limiting step 111 and abut against the first convex edge 131. The sum of the heights of the first limiting step 111 and the first limiting ribs 113 is less than the height of the first convex edge 131. The plurality of first limiting ribs 113 arranged in parallel can further improve the positioning effect of the first arc isolation plate 130. The height of the first limiting step 111 is relatively low, and the first arc isolation plate 130 is easy to slide out during assembly, so as to prevent the first arc isolation plate 130 from directly squeezing the arc extinguishing assembly. At the same time, the plurality of first limiting ribs 113 arranged in parallel can disperse the stress in the area of the arc extinguishing assembly installation position 150, so as to strengthen the structural strength of the area.
[0060] Similarly, for the same reason, a plurality of second limiting ribs 123 are arranged in parallel and relatively perpendicular to the second flange 141 on the second limiting step 121, and the ends of the plurality of second limiting ribs 123 are flush with the limiting surface of the second limiting step 121 and abut against the second flange 141, and the sum of the heights of the second limiting step 121 and the second limiting ribs 123 is less than the height of the second flange 141.
[0061] In this embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the second arc isolation plate 140 is provided with a third convex edge 143 and a fourth convex edge 144 at one side corresponding to the opening end of the arc extinguishing channel 160. Figure 4 As shown, the cover body 120 is provided with a third limiting rib 125 and a fourth limiting rib 124 for limiting the third convex edge 143 and the fourth convex edge 144. Figure 6 As shown, and with Figure 8 In comparison, there is no need to set a limiting rib on the side of the cover body corresponding to the opening end of the arc extinguishing channel to limit the edge of the second arc isolation plate 140. The second arc isolation plate 140 can be limited by the third ridge 143 and the fourth ridge 144 as well as the characteristic ribs (i.e., the third limiting rib 123 and the fourth limiting rib 124) that can be set on the shell itself, thereby increasing the overall structure of the second arc isolation plate 140 and improving the coverage of the second arc isolation plate 140, thereby further increasing the size of the arc extinguishing channel and reducing the chance of the shell being burned.
[0062] In this example, the first arc isolation plate 130 includes a first bottom plate 1300, and the side of the first bottom plate extends toward the base 110 in the thickness direction and is sequentially provided with the first flange 131, the first connecting flange 1301, the fifth flange 135, the second connecting flange 1302, the third connecting flange 1303 and the seventh flange 137, the fifth flange 135 is inclined relative to the first flange 131, the seventh flange 137 is L-shaped and cooperates with the third rib 117, the third connecting flange 1303 is in an arc shape, the first flange 131, the first connecting flange 1301, the fifth flange 135, the second connecting flange 1302, the third connecting flange 1303 and the seventh flange 137 are sequentially connected and surround the side of the first bottom plate 1300 to form a first spacing groove between the first bottom plate 1300 and the base 110. Each convex edge not only positions the first arc isolation plate 130 , but also strengthens the structure of the first arc isolation plate 130 . At the same time, a first spacing groove is formed between the first bottom plate 1300 and the base 110 , further protecting the base.
[0063] Similarly, the second arc isolation plate 140 includes a second base plate 1400, and the side of the second base plate 1400 extends toward the cover body 120 in the thickness direction and is sequentially provided with the second flange 141, the eighth flange 148, the fourth flange 144, the third flange 143, the sixth flange 146 and the fourth connecting flange 1404, the eighth flange 148 is L-shaped and cooperates with the fourth rib 127, the fourth flange 144 and the third flange 143 are L-shaped and correspond to the opening end of the arc extinguishing channel 160 with the arc-shaped third connecting flange 1303, the second flange 141, the eighth flange 148, the fourth flange 144, the third flange 143, the sixth flange 146 and the fourth connecting flange 1404 are sequentially connected and surround the side of the second base plate 1400 to form a second spacing groove between the second base plate 1400 and the cover body 120.
[0064] In this embodiment, the third limiting ribs 123 are arranged in parallel in a plurality, and the fourth limiting ribs 124 are arranged in parallel in a plurality. The method of arranging in parallel in a plurality of ribs can reduce the local stress concentration of the housing and realize the combined effect of positioning and structural reinforcement.

[0066] Furthermore, the second arc isolation plate 140 is also provided with a sixth convex edge 146 at the edge corresponding to the side wall, and the cover body 120 is provided with a sixth limiting rib 126 in the area corresponding to the arc extinguishing channel 160 for positioning the second convex edge 141 and the sixth convex edge 146 from the inside, and the sixth limiting rib 126 is located in the second spacing groove for positioning the second convex edge 141 and the sixth convex edge 146.
