The temperature rise of drawer-type circuit breakers is higher than that of fixed circuit breakers, and in parallel, the air between the parallel contacts cannot be effectively utilized at the blades and bridge contacts of the body, resulting in a reduction in contact area and heat dissipation metal surface, resulting in the inability to effectively reduce the temperature rise.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0025] This embodiment provides a technical solution: the high-current drawer-type circuit breaker of the utility model comprises a circuit breaker body 1 and a circuit breaker drawer seat 2. Each phase of the circuit breaker body 1 is composed of two groups of body blades 11. This embodiment consists of three phases. Each group of body blades 11 includes two contacts 111 arranged in an aligned manner with a gap in the middle. Each phase of the circuit breaker drawer seat 2 is composed of two groups of outlet rows 21. A row of vertical bridge contacts 22 is installed on the outlet row 21. In the connection position, the body blades 11 are inserted into the bridge contacts 22. Each group of body blades 11 is connected to the bridge contacts 22. Strip short-circuit rows 112 perpendicular to the plug-in direction are installed on the upper and lower sides of the front ends of the two contacts 111 of the knife 11, namely, an upper short-circuit row 112a and a lower short-circuit row 112b. The short-circuit row 112 is in full contact with the upper and lower surfaces of the two contacts 111 and forms a vertical rectangular space 33 between the two contacts 111. The short-circuit row 112 is a first contact area 31 above and below the contacts 111, and the short-circuit row 112 is a second contact area 32 above and below the rectangular space 33. The bridge contact 22 covers the first contact area 31 and the second contact area 32 at the same time.
[0026] In this embodiment, the strip-shaped short-circuit bar 112 is a long rectangle, and the edges may also be changed to an ellipse.
[0027] There are many ways to connect and fix the contact 111 and the short-circuit bar 112, such as using a side spring clip or riveting. In order to facilitate production and installation, this embodiment uses screws and nuts for fixed installation, that is, screw holes are opened at the rear of the front end of the contact 111 that does not affect the plug-in, and screw holes are also opened at the corresponding position of the short-circuit bar 112. The short-circuit bar 112 is fixed to the contact 111 by connecting screws 113 through the screw holes and connecting nuts 114. There are two screw holes on each contact, and the connection direction of the screw holes is perpendicular to the contact plug-in direction. When the short-circuit bar 112 is relatively thick, the nuts can be omitted, and the screw holes on the short-circuit bar 112 can be tapped as threaded holes.
[0028] In order to facilitate the insertion and guidance of the shorting bar 112 into the bridge contact 22 , a chamfer feature 1121 is provided on the outer edge of the outer surface of the shorting bar 112 . The chamfer feature 1121 is a bevel chamfer in this embodiment, and may also be a circular arc chamfer in other embodiments.
[0029] To ensure that the contact 111 is compatible with the bridge contact 22 in size, the bridge contact 22 does not need to be replaced. The front end of the contact 111 is provided with recessed features 1111 for installing the shorting bar 112, so that the size after the shorting bar 112 is installed remains basically the same as before.
[0030] The short circuit row 112 can also be set as an integral whole, for example, connected to each other at the short sides, and clamped onto the contact 111 from the front of the contact 111 by interference fit, or connected to the outer long sides as a whole to reduce the number of parts, or the short sides and the outer long sides can be connected as a whole, with an opening on the inside, and clamped onto the contact 111 from the inside.
