Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a moving contact assembly of a molded case circuit breaker. Background Art

[0002] Traditional circuit breakers usually include a moving contact assembly, which includes a contact support member and at least one moving contact arranged on the contact support member. The moving contact and the contact support member are rotatably connected. By driving the contact support member to rotate, all moving contacts can be driven to move synchronously at the same time. A torsion spring is usually arranged between the moving contact and the contact support member. The torsion spring provides a certain elastic force for the moving contact, so that all moving contacts in the circuit breaker frame can maintain a good conductive contact effect with the static contact. During the use of the existing moving contact assembly, it is found that due to the frequent movement of the moving contact, the internal torsion spring is easily damaged or offset under the long-term action of impact and vibration, so that the torsion spring is unbalanced when the moving contact moves, and it is easy to swing slightly left and right, affecting the flatness and stability during contact. In view of this problem, the existing moving contact assembly is improved and optimized. Utility Model Content
