DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following embodiments are combined with the accompanying drawings to further illustrate the specific implementation of the handle assembly of the rotary isolating switch and the rotary isolating switch of the present invention. The handle assembly of the rotary isolating switch and the rotary isolating switch of the present invention are not limited to the description of the following embodiments.

[0027] The rotary isolating switch of this embodiment includes an operating mechanism and at least one switch unit. The operating mechanism and the switch unit are arranged in a stacked manner. The operating mechanism is connected to the switch unit to drive the switch unit to be turned on or off. The switch unit includes a switch unit housing and a contact system and an arc extinguishing system arranged in the switch unit housing and used in conjunction with each other. The contact system includes a moving contact mechanism pivotally arranged on the housing of the conductive device and a static contact cooperating with the moving contact mechanism. One end of the operating mechanism is connected to the moving contact mechanism of the switch unit as a driving end, so that the moving contact mechanism and the static contact are closed or disconnected to realize the closing or opening of the rotary isolating switch. The moving contact mechanisms of adjacent switch units are connected in a driving manner. The switch unit is used to control the power supply to the load. The other end of the operating mechanism extends out of the housing of the operating mechanism as an operating end to drive the operating mechanism to operate.

[0028] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the rotary isolating switch of this embodiment also includes a handle assembly. The handle 1 of the handle assembly is connected to the operating end of the operating mechanism. Usually, the rotary isolating switch is placed in a cabinet for use. The operating end of the operating mechanism extends out of the cabinet, and the mounting position of the handle assembly is arranged at the outer wall of the cabinet corresponding to the operating end of the operating mechanism. The handle assembly of this embodiment includes a base 2 and a handle 1 pivotally arranged on the base 2. The handle 1 rotates to open or close the rotary isolating switch. The handle 1 is provided with a rotation limit portion 11. The base 2 is provided with an opening limiting portion 21 and a closing limiting portion 22 for cooperating with the rotation limit portion 11 to limit the rotation angle of the handle 1. The rotation limit portion 11 of the handle 1 is limited to rotate between the opening limiting portion 21 and the closing limiting portion 22, so that the handle 1 is limited to rotate between the opening position and the closing position. Preferably, the rotatable angle of the handle 1 is within 110°. Of course, the rotatable angle of the handle 1 can also be in other angle ranges. As Figure 3As shown, during the rotation process of the handle 1, when the rotation limit portion 11 of the handle 1 rotates clockwise to the opening limit portion 21, the handle 1 is limited to the opening position, and the handle 1 can no longer continue to rotate clockwise, and the rotary isolating switch completes the opening; when the rotation limit portion 11 of the handle 1 rotates counterclockwise to the closing limit portion 22, the handle 1 is limited to the closing position, and the handle 1 can no longer continue to rotate counterclockwise, and the rotary isolating switch completes the opening. The handle assembly and the rotary isolating switch of the rotary isolating switch of this embodiment limit the handle 1 to the opening position and the closing position through the rotation limit portion 11 of the handle 1 respectively cooperating with the opening limit portion 21 and the closing limit portion 22 of the base 2, and the foolproof limit design is simple to operate. It only needs to turn the handle 1 to the opening direction or the closing direction to the bottom, which effectively controls the rotation angle of the handle, prevents the handle from rotating excessively or insufficiently, and improves the reliability of the contact between the moving and static contacts.

[0029] like Figure 3-5 As shown, the matching structure between the rotation limiting part 11 and the opening limiting part 21 and the closing limiting part 22 of this embodiment, the rotation limiting part 11 is a protruding structure integrally provided on the handle 1, and the base 2 is provided with a limiting notch 25 corresponding to the rotation limiting part 11, and the limiting notch 25 has two opposite side walls, which are used as the opening limiting part 21 and the closing limiting part 22. The rotation angle limiting structure of the handle 1 is formed by the cooperation of the protruding rotation limiting part 11 and the two opposite side walls of the limiting notch 25, which has a simple structure, so that the rotation angle of the handle 1 can be effectively and reliably controlled, and the rotation limiting part 11 on the handle 1 and the limiting part on the base 2 are both integrally designed, so as to avoid the problem of the inability to reliably control the rotation angle of the handle 1 caused by the installation problem of the limiting part, reduce parts, and facilitate installation.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the specific structure of the handle 1 of this embodiment is that the handle 1 is an integrally formed structure, including a handle 12 and a handle shaft 13. The handle 12 is a straight-line hollow shell structure. One end of the handle shaft 13 is connected to the inner wall of the hollow shell of the handle 12.

The base 2 is provided with a shaft hole 23 that is rotatably matched with the mounting end of the handle shaft 13. The mounting end of the handle shaft 13 is rotatably inserted into the shaft hole 23 of the base 2. The handle 1 of this embodiment also includes two handle wings 14 symmetrically arranged on both radial sides of the handle shaft 13. The handle wings 14 are similar to a semicircular plate structure. The handle 12 is vertically connected to the two handle wings 14 to form a T-shaped structure. The handle wings 14 are parallel to the base 2 and are provided with side flanges 15 protruding toward the base 2 on the circumferential side. One end of the two handle wings 14 is extended and connected through the side flange 15, and the other side is spaced apart. The handle 1 of this embodiment has a simple structure, is easy to shape, and is convenient for rotation operation.

[0031] like Figure 3-5 As shown, a specific embodiment of the matching structure between the rotation limiting part 11 of this embodiment and the opening limiting part 21 and the closing limiting part 22, the rotation shaft hole 23 is provided with a support step 24 for supporting the mounting end of the handle shaft 13, the support step 24 is arranged around the side wall of the shaft hole 23 and is provided with a limiting notch 25, so as to form a relative opening limiting part 21 and closing limiting part 22, the rotation limiting part 11 is a convex structure formed by axial protrusion on the mounting end of the handle shaft 13, the mounting end of the handle shaft 13 is placed on the support step 24 and slidably cooperates with the support step 24, the rotation limiting part 11 is placed in the limiting notch 25 on the support step 24 and slidably cooperates with the support step 24. Preferably, the rotation limiting part 11 is an arc-shaped convex rib structure that slidably cooperates with the side wall of the shaft hole 23. The limiting notch 25 and the rotation limiting portion 11 are concave-convex structures in the axial direction of the handle shaft 13, so that the rotation angle limiting structure of the handle 1 and the rotation structure of the handle 1 will not affect and restrict each other, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the rotation angle limitation of the handle 1.

[0032] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the installation sealing structure of the base 2 of this embodiment, the base 2 is provided with an annular groove surrounding the shaft hole 23 on the side facing the handle assembly installation position, which is used to install the first sealing ring 3, and the annular side wall of the annular groove is provided with a protruding extrusion portion, and the first sealing ring 3 is arranged in the annular groove and is squeezed and limited by the extrusion portion.

The sealing ring is squeezed and limited in the annular groove by the extrusion portion, and by increasing the local friction between the extrusion portion and the sealing ring, the sealing ring can be prevented from falling off at the non-installation time, which is conducive to ensuring the reliability of the overall matching of the handle assembly during transportation and transfer, and improving the sealing between the handle assembly and the cabinet side wall after installation.

[0033] like Figure 1-2As shown, the handle assembly of this embodiment also includes a connecting shaft 4, one end of which is connected to the handle 1, and the other end of the connecting shaft 4 passes through the rotating shaft hole 23 of the base 2, and is used to be linked with the operating end of the operating mechanism. A second sealing ring 5 is arranged between the outer wall of the connecting shaft 4 and the side wall of the rotating shaft hole 23, and an assembly groove for assembling the second sealing ring 5 is opened on the outer wall of the connecting shaft 4 to improve the sealing inside and outside of the rotating shaft hole 23. Furthermore, the handle 1 and the connecting shaft 4 are separately arranged, and the end of the connecting shaft 4 connected to the handle 1 is provided with a first screw hole, and the other end of the connecting shaft 4 is provided with a first accommodating groove 41 for inserting the operating end of the operating mechanism, and the handle 1 is axially provided with a second accommodating groove 16 for accommodating one end of the connecting shaft 4 along the handle shaft 13, and the second accommodating groove 16 is provided with a second screw hole penetrating the handle 1, and the fixing screw 6 fixes the handle 1 to the connecting shaft 4 through the second screw hole and the first screw hole; the end of the connecting shaft 4 provided with the first accommodating groove 41 is radially provided with a connecting hole 42 penetrating the connecting shaft 4 and communicating with the first accommodating groove 41, which is used to be connected to the operating end of the operating mechanism through a connecting piece.
