Almost all of them are equipped with traditional spring operating mechanisms. Compared with permanent magnets, spring operating mechanisms have more mechanism parts, require regular lubrication, are prone to rust, have poor reliability, and have large discreteness in opening and closing. When a line fault occurs, the cut-off time is more than 20ms, and the permanent magnet mechanism generally has an action time of no more than 8ms, which reduces the duration of the fault by more than half and has less impact on the line. On the other hand, the unit cabinet width of the national standard environmentally friendly gas cabinet is 420mm, which is the limit that most manufacturers can achieve, resulting in an increase in occupied area.

[0028] The circuit breaker switch unit 5 is arranged inside the assembly bracket 1. The circuit breaker switch unit 5 consists of a switch unit 51 and a circuit breaker unit 52. The switch unit 51 includes an isolating knife 511, an insulating rod 512 and a vacuum arc chamber 513. The circuit breaker unit 52 includes a three-permanent magnetic operating mechanism 521. The three-permanent magnetic operating mechanism 521 is vertically arranged on the lower side of the switch unit 51.

The isolating knife operating mechanism 6 is connected to the isolating knife 511, and the breaking mechanism 7 is connected to the insulating rod 512.

[0029] The vacuum circuit breaker structure is supported by assembling bracket 2, so that the overall structure is arranged compactly, the overall metal materials such as sheet metal are also reduced, the total weight of the cabinet is lighter, and it is convenient for on-site installation and implementation. The three permanent magnet operating mechanism is still used, which has the characteristics of high reliability that the spring structure cannot achieve, maintenance-free, not affected by the external environment and rusting, fast action speed, and short fault duration.
