When the moving contact descends and contacts the static contact, electrical connection is achieved. When the moving contact rises and separates from the static contact, electrical disconnection is achieved. This is a well-known technology in the art. For example, refer to the vacuum arc chamber structure in the CN219553512U patent. The lower end of the main shaft body 108 is connected to the moving contact in the vacuum arc chamber 3.

[0025] like Figures 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, two spring retaining rings 103 are sleeved on the middle part of the main shaft body 108, and the two spring retaining rings 103 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the limit platform 109, the upper end of the upper energy storage spring 102 is against the upper limit retaining ring 101, and the lower end is against the spring retaining ring 103 on the corresponding side, the upper end of the lower energy storage spring 104 is against the spring retaining ring 103 on the corresponding side, and the lower end is against the lower limit retaining ring 105.

[0026] like Figures 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper limit retaining ring 101 is fixedly mounted on the main shaft body 108 via an upper pin shaft 1011 , and the lower limit retaining ring 105 is fixedly mounted on the main shaft body 108 via a lower pin shaft 1051 .

[0027] like Figures 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, a threaded section is provided at the upper end of the main shaft body 108 and is threadedly fixedly connected to the lower end of the lifting shaft 401 .

[0028] like Figures 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, an overtravel adjustment rod 107 and an overtravel spring 106 are provided at the lower end of the main shaft body 108, wherein the overtravel spring 106 is arranged between the lower limit retaining ring 105 and the upper end of the overtravel adjustment rod 107, and the lower end of the overtravel adjustment rod 107 is provided with a threaded section which is threadedly fixedly connected to the upper end rod of the moving contact in the vacuum arc extinguishing chamber 3.

[0029] like Figures 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, a long installation hole is provided at the lower end of the main shaft body 108, and the overtravel adjustment rod 107 is installed on the main shaft body 108 through an adjustment rod pin shaft 1071, and the adjustment rod pin shaft 1071 passes through the long installation hole.

[0030] The working principle of the utility model is:

[0031] When the utility model only relies on the permanent magnet mechanism 4 for automatic operation, when the vacuum interrupter 3 is closed, the closing coil 404 is energized, and the direction of the electromagnetic field generated by the current is opposite to that of the closing yoke 407. At this time, the armature 402 is driven to drive the lifting shaft 401 to move downward. The closing coil 404 is energized for a short set time, as long as the lifting shaft 401 can be ensured to be in place, and then the power is cut off. After the power is cut off, the armature 402 is kept in place by the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 403, and the lifting shaft 401 moves downward, and the moving contact on the upper side of the vacuum interrupter 3 is driven downward by the main shaft body 108 to contact the vacuum interrupter 3. The static contact on the lower side of the arc chamber 3 is in contact to achieve electrical connection. When the vacuum arc chamber 3 is opened, the opening coil 405 is energized to generate magnetic force, and the direction of the electromagnetic field generated by the current is opposite to that of the opening yoke 406. At this time, the armature 402 is driven to drive the lifting shaft 401 to move upward. Similarly, the opening coil 405 is only energized for a short time, and then the power is cut off. After the lifting shaft 401 rises to its position, the armature 402 is held in position by the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 403, and the lifting shaft 401 moves upward to drive the moving contact on the upper side of the vacuum arc chamber 3 to separate from the static contact on the lower side through the main shaft body 108 to disconnect the electrical connection. The permanent magnet mechanism 4 is a well-known technology in the art, for example, the bistable permanent magnet mechanism in the CN117650026 B patent can be used.

[0032] and Figures 2-3As shown, the utility model can also realize manual operation by adding structures such as the opening and closing handle 2 and the opening and closing drive shaft 1. When the lifting shaft 401 in the permanent magnet mechanism 4 is in the opening position and its coil cannot be automatically operated or other situations that require manual operation due to power failure or other reasons, the operator uses the insulating rod to pull down the opening and closing handle 2, and the opening and closing handle 2 drives the opening and closing pin shaft 203 to move downward through the handle connecting rod 201 and the shift fork 202. The downward movement of the opening and closing pin shaft 203 drives the limit platform 109 to move downward to compress the lower energy storage spring 104 to store energy. When the opening and closing pin shaft 203 abuts against the lower end of the limit long hole 1081, the lower energy storage spring 104 After the energy storage is completed, the opening and closing handle 2 continues to be pulled down. At this time, the main shaft body 108 is driven to move downward to close the vacuum arc chamber 3, wherein the lower end of the main shaft body 108 drives the moving contact in the vacuum arc chamber 3 to move downward and contact with the static contact, and the upper end of the main shaft body 108 drives the lifting shaft 401 and the armature 402 in the permanent magnet mechanism 4 to move downward to the closing position. In this way, when the operator releases the opening and closing handle 2, the lifting shaft 401 together with the main shaft body 108 on the lower side can still maintain the closing position under the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 403. At the same time, the limit platform 109 drives the opening and closing pin shaft 203 to rise and return to its original position under the drive of the lower energy storage spring 104, thereby driving the opening and closing handle 2 to return to its original position. The manual opening process is the opposite of the above. When the lifting shaft 401 in the permanent magnet mechanism 4 is in the closing position and the coil cannot be automatically operated due to power failure or other reasons, the operator uses the insulating rod to push up the opening and closing handle 2, thereby moving the opening and closing pin shaft 203 upward to drive the limit platform 109 to compress the upper energy storage spring 102. When the opening and closing pin shaft 203 is against the uppermost end of the limit long hole 1081, continuing to push up the opening and closing handle 2 will drive the main shaft body 108 to move upward. At this time, the main shaft body 108 drives the moving contact in the vacuum arc chamber 3 at the lower end to move up and separate from the static contact to achieve opening. At the same time, the main shaft body 108 drives the upper lifting shaft 401 to drive the armature 402 to rise to the opening position. In this way, after releasing the opening and closing handle 2, the lifting shaft 401 together with the main shaft body 108 on the lower side can be kept in the opening position by the magnetic force of the permanent magnet 403, and the opening and closing handle 2 is driven to return to its original position by the upper energy storage spring 102.

[0033] In addition, Figures 2-3As shown, a floating overtravel adjustment rod 107 and an overtravel spring 106 are provided at the lower end of the main shaft body 108. The overtravel adjustment rod 107 and the overtravel spring 106 are used to ensure the lifting range of the main shaft body 108, so that it can not only ensure that the moving contact at the lower end is in contact or separation with the static contact, but also ensure that the lifting shaft 401 at the upper end together with the armature 402 can move to the opening or closing position in the permanent magnet mechanism 4, thereby not affecting the subsequent automatic control of the permanent magnet mechanism 3. The adjustment rod pin 1071 at the upper end of the overtravel adjustment rod 107 can float within a certain range along the mounting long hole at the lower end of the main shaft body 108, and at the same time, the lower limit retaining ring 105 cooperates with the compression overtravel spring 106 to ensure that the main shaft body 108 can be reset to the set position.

[0034] like Figure 5 As shown, an application example of the utility model is a new type of outdoor pole-mounted switch, wherein the vacuum arc chamber 3 is arranged in the vacuum arc chamber cavity 5 on the switch, and the opening and closing drive shaft 1, the permanent magnet mechanism 4, etc. are concentrated in the opening and closing mechanism cavity at the upper end of the switch, the opening and closing handle 2 is arranged on the outer side of the upper end of the switch, and the other end of the handle connecting rod 201 passes through the upper end of the switch and is connected to an indicator needle 204 to cooperate with the state of the opening and closing marking indicating device on the switch.
