A first feature being "below", "below" and "below" a second feature includes that the first feature is directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0050] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and other directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of description and simplified operation, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present invention. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are only used to distinguish in the description and have no special meaning.

[0051] In this embodiment, the term "and / or" is only a description of the association relationship of the associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in the present utility model generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0052] In the embodiments of the present invention, the same reference numerals represent the same components, and for the sake of brevity, detailed descriptions of the same components are omitted in different embodiments.

[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a contact system, including a main contact assembly 1 and an auxiliary contact assembly 2. Both the main contact assembly 1 and the auxiliary contact assembly 2 have an on-off state, and the auxiliary contact assembly 2 can indicate the on-off state of the main contact assembly 1.

[0054] The auxiliary contact assembly 2 includes an auxiliary contact 21, a connecting piece 22 and a switch piece 23, which form a circuit; one end of the connecting piece 22 is conductively connected to the switch piece 23, and the other end forms an elastic clamping portion 221 with a clamping groove 220, and the elastic clamping portion 221 is clamped and elastically abutted with the auxiliary contact 21 through the clamping groove 220; the switch piece 23 is used for synchronous disconnection when the main contact assembly 1 switches the on-off state.

[0055] Specifically, the circuit where the main contact assembly 1 is located is the main circuit, and the auxiliary contact 21, the connecting piece 22 and the switch piece 23 of the auxiliary contact assembly 2 constitute an auxiliary circuit. The on-off state of the main circuit can be determined by the on-off state of the auxiliary circuit, thereby realizing the state monitoring of the DC contactor.

[0056] The contact system provided in the embodiment of the present application can be used in a DC contactor. Since the switch element 23 of the auxiliary contact component 2 can be disconnected synchronously when the main contact component 1 switches the on-off state, the on-off state of the main contact component 1 can be judged with the help of the state of the loop formed by the auxiliary contact component 2, thereby realizing the state monitoring of the DC contactor. By providing an elastic clamping portion 221 with a clamping groove 220 on the connecting piece 22, when assembling the auxiliary contact 21, it is only necessary to clamp one end of the auxiliary contact 21 into the clamping groove 220 of the elastic clamping portion 221. On the one hand, it can reduce the difficulty of assembling the auxiliary contact 21 in the DC contactor, so that the auxiliary contact 21 can be electrically connected to the switch member 23 through the connecting piece 22, thereby forming a circuit indicating the on-off state of the main contact assembly 1. On the other hand, the elastic clamping portion 221 can elastically abut against the auxiliary contact 21 with a certain pressure, ensuring good and reliable conductive contact with the auxiliary contact 21, improving the contact stability, and ensuring that the auxiliary contact assembly 2 can accurately indicate the on-off state of the DC contactor main circuit (formed by the main contact assembly 1).

[0057] In this embodiment, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, two connectors 22 and two auxiliary contacts 21 are provided, and the two connectors 22 are respectively connected to the two ends of the switch 23, and the two auxiliary contacts 21 are correspondingly clamped to the elastic clamping parts 221 of the two connectors 22, and are electrically connected through the conductive member. The two auxiliary contacts 21, the two connectors 22 and the switch 23 constitute an auxiliary circuit, and the conductive member is exemplarily a wire.

[0058] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The elastic clamping portion 221 includes a first elastic piece 2211, a clamping section 2212 and a second elastic piece 2213 which are bent and connected in sequence. The first elastic piece 2211 and the second elastic piece 2213 are arranged opposite to each other, and the distance between the first elastic piece 2211 and the second elastic piece 2213 gradually increases in the direction away from the clamping section 2212. The first elastic piece 2211, the clamping section 2212 and the second elastic piece 2213 are arranged to form the above-mentioned clamping groove 220. The distance between the first elastic piece 2211 and the second elastic piece 2213 gradually increases in the direction away from the clamping section 2212 to form a bell-mouth structure, which facilitates the auxiliary contact 21 to be inserted into the clamping groove 220. The connection between the first elastic piece 2211 and the clamping section 2212, and the connection between the second elastic piece 2213 and the clamping section 2212 elastically abut against the auxiliary contact 21 to ensure good contact with the auxiliary contact 21.

[0059] Furthermore, combined with Figure 5 The engaging section 2212 includes a third spring piece 22121, a fourth spring piece 22122, a fifth spring piece 22123 and a sixth spring piece 22124 which are bent and connected in sequence; the third spring piece 22121 is bent and connected to the first spring piece 2211 and is opposite to the sixth spring piece 22124, the sixth spring piece 22124 is bent and connected to the second spring piece 2213, and the fourth spring piece 22122 and the fifth spring piece 22123 are arranged in a V shape. The third spring piece 22121, the fourth spring piece 22122, the fifth spring piece 22123 and the sixth spring piece 22124 generally form a diamond structure, which is convenient for accommodating the auxiliary contact 21 and is easy to bend and form.

[0060] More specifically, the engaging section 2212 and the first elastic piece 2211 , as well as the engaging section 2212 and the second elastic piece 2213 are connected via a transition arc surface 2214 , which abuts against the auxiliary contact 21 to avoid scratches on the auxiliary contact 21 due to sharp parts.

[0061] In some other embodiments, the engaging section 2212 may also be in a U-shape, a V-shape, or an arc shape, as long as it can accommodate the auxiliary contact 21 .

[0062] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The contact system further comprises an outer cover assembly 4, and the main contact assembly 1 and the auxiliary contact assembly 2 are both mounted in the outer cover assembly 4. The outer cover assembly 4 comprises a bottom plate and a cover shell buckled on the bottom plate for easy assembly and disassembly.

[0063] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4As shown, the contact system further includes a mounting frame 3, which is fixedly connected to the bottom plate of the outer cover assembly 4. The connecting member 22 includes a first connecting piece 222 and a second connecting piece 223 which are bent and connected. The first connecting piece 222 is embedded in the mounting frame 3 and is conductively connected to the switch member 23. The second connecting piece 223 is laid on the surface of the mounting frame 3 and is connected to the elastic clamping portion 221. The first connecting piece 222 is embedded in the mounting frame 3 to ensure that the connecting member 22 is firmly connected to the mounting frame 3, and the mounting frame 3 can provide support for the second connecting piece 223, so that the entire connecting member 22 maintains its shape and is not easily deformed.

[0064] More specifically, the first connecting piece 222 includes a first spring piece, a second spring piece, and a third spring piece that are bent and connected in sequence. Figure 3 In the middle direction, the first and third springs extend approximately vertically, and the second spring extends approximately horizontally. The two connecting members 22 are arranged in mirror symmetry, and the third springs of the two are close to the middle, the second connecting piece 223 is connected to the third spring, and the second connecting pieces 223 of the two connecting members 22 extend in directions away from each other to connect with the elastic clamping portion 221. The structure of the first connecting piece 222 makes the arrangement of the entire connecting member 22 on the mounting frame 3 more compact and reasonable, saving space.

[0065] In this embodiment, the connector 22 is integrally bent and formed, and has a certain elastic deformation capability while ensuring its strength. The connector 22 can be made of copper sheet, nickel sheet, copper alloy sheet, etc., and has good electrical conductivity.

[0066] Further, see Figure 3 and Figure 6 , the auxiliary contact 21 penetrates and is connected to the housing of the outer cover assembly 4, and one end thereof extends into the interior of the outer cover assembly 4 to be electrically connected to the internal connector 22. The mounting frame 3 is provided with a first groove 31 and a second groove 32 corresponding to the auxiliary contact 21. The switch member 23 is arranged in the first groove 31, and one end of the first spring leaf of the first connecting piece 222 is bent and connected with an extension section, which extends into the first groove 31 and is electrically connected to the switch member 23. There are two second grooves 32, and the elastic clamping parts 221 of the two connectors 22 are arranged in the two second grooves 32 in a one-to-one correspondence. By providing the first groove 31 for accommodating the switch member 23 and the second groove 32 for accommodating the elastic clamping part 221, the space on the mounting frame 3 can be reasonably utilized, the space occupied by the auxiliary contact assembly 2 can be saved, and the structural layout can be made more compact and reasonable.

[0067] Optionally, the connecting member 22 may be injection molded in the mounting frame 3 to ensure connection strength and reduce subsequent assembly steps.

[0068] Exemplarily, the mounting frame 3 is roughly door-shaped, with fixing seats 8 connected to its two ends through snap fasteners. The fixing seats 8 are connected to the bottom plate of the outer cover assembly 4 through fasteners such as screws to achieve the installation of the mounting frame 3 in the outer cover assembly 4.

[0069] In this embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 6 As shown, the main contact assembly 1 includes a main static contact 11, an active contact 12 and a push rod assembly 13. The push rod assembly 13 is movably arranged on the outer cover assembly 4 and connected to the active contact 12, and is used to drive the active contact 12 to move to contact or separate from the main static contact 11. A permanent magnet 14 is arranged on the push rod assembly 13. The permanent magnet 14 moves between the first position and the second position under the drive of the push rod assembly 13. The switch member 23 is specifically a reed switch, which is used to close under the magnetic field of the permanent magnet 14 in the first position, and is used to disconnect when the permanent magnet 14 moves to the second position.

[0070] Specifically, the permanent magnet 14 in the first position is closer to the reed switch than the permanent magnet 14 in the second position. When the push rod assembly 13 drives the permanent magnet 14 to move to the first position, the active contact 12 moves to a position where it contacts and conducts with the main static contact 11. At this time, the permanent magnet 14 is close to the reed switch, and the reed switch is closed and conducted under the magnetic field of the permanent magnet 14, and the auxiliary circuit is conducted, which can indicate the conduction state of the main circuit. When the push rod assembly 13 drives the permanent magnet 14 from the first position to the second position, the active contact 12 moves to a position separated from the main static contact 11, and the main circuit is disconnected. At this time, the permanent magnet 14 is far away from the reed switch, and the reed switch is no longer affected by the magnetic field of the permanent magnet 14, or the magnetic field effect it is subjected to is weakened, so that the reed switch is switched to a disconnected state, and the auxiliary circuit is cut off, which can indicate the disconnected state of the main circuit.

[0071] like Figure 6 As shown, the contact system further includes a moving iron core 5, which is configured to move under the action of the electromagnetic system of the DC contactor. A mounting tube 6 is provided at the bottom of the bottom plate of the outer cover assembly 4, and the moving iron core 5 is movably disposed in the mounting tube 6. Figure 7 and Figure 8, the push rod assembly 13 includes a push rod body 131, an insulating seat 132 and an elastic member 133. The push rod body 131 movably penetrates the bottom plate of the outer cover assembly 4, and its first end is connected to the moving iron core 5, and the other end is connected to the insulating seat 132; the permanent magnet 14 is embedded in the insulating seat 132; one end of the elastic member 133 is connected to the insulating seat 132, and the other end is connected to the active contact 12. Further, a reset spring 7 is also arranged between the bottom plate of the outer cover assembly 4 and the moving iron core 5, and the reset spring 7 is sleeved on the push rod body 131, which is used to move and reset the moving iron core 5. For example, the coil of the electromagnetic system is energized to move the moving iron core 5 upward, so as to drive the active contact 12 to move through the push rod assembly 13 to achieve contact with the main static contact 11, during which the moving iron core 5 compresses the reset spring 7. When the coil is de-energized, the moving iron core 5 is moved and reset under the elastic force of the reset spring 7.

[0072] Since an elastic member 133 is provided between the insulating seat 132 and the active contact 12, when the active contact 12 contacts the main static contact 11, the elastic member 133 can exert a certain pressure, so that the active contact 12 contacts the main static contact 11 with a certain pressure, ensuring good conductivity.

[0073] Exemplarily, the permanent magnet 14 is injection molded in the insulating seat 132, which makes the installation more stable and saves the subsequent assembly process.

[0074] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the push rod assembly 13 also includes a mounting plate 134, a first bracket 135 and a second bracket 136. The mounting plate 134 is embedded in the insulating seat 132 and both ends extend out of the insulating seat 132. Both ends of the first bracket 135 are provided with connecting holes 1351, and the connecting holes 1351 at both ends are correspondingly plugged with the two ends of the mounting plate 134. The first bracket 135 and the insulating seat 132 are surrounded to form an accommodating space 130, and the elastic member 133 and the active contact 12 are arranged in the accommodating space 130. The second bracket 136 is buckled with the active contact 12 and is provided with a protrusion 1361; the first bracket 135 is provided with a notch 1352, and the protrusion 1361 is movably inserted into the notch 1352.

[0075] In this embodiment, the mounting piece 134 is formed on the insulating seat 132 by injection molding, and its two ends are protruded relative to the two sides of the insulating seat 132, and are used to penetrate the connection hole 1351 on the first bracket 135, and are riveted with the connection hole 1351 on the first bracket 135. The active contact 12 moves in the accommodating space 130, and the movement of the active contact 12 can be guided. Moreover, the cooperation of the protrusion 1361 and the notch 1352 can further improve the guiding accuracy of the active contact 12, so that the movement of the active contact 12 is more stable.

[0076] This embodiment also provides a DC contactor, including a housing, an electromagnetic system and the contact system as described above, the contact system and the electromagnetic system are located in the housing, and the electromagnetic system is used to drive the main contact assembly 1 of the contact system to switch the on and off state. As mentioned above, the electromagnetic system includes a coil that can be energized and de-energized, which can drive the moving iron core 5 to drive the push rod assembly 13 to move, and in combination with the reset spring 7, realize the contact and separation of the active contact 12 and the main static contact 11.

[0077] In the DC contactor with the above contact system, since the switch element 23 of the auxiliary contact assembly 2 can be disconnected synchronously when the main contact assembly 1 switches the on-off state, the on-off state of the main contact assembly 1 can be judged by means of the state of the circuit formed by the auxiliary contact assembly 2, thereby realizing the state monitoring of the DC contactor. By providing an elastic clamping portion 221 with a clamping groove 220 on the connecting member 22, when assembling the auxiliary contact 21, it is only necessary to clamp one end of the auxiliary contact 21 into the clamping groove 220 of the elastic clamping portion 221. On the one hand, it can reduce the difficulty of assembling the auxiliary contact 21 in the DC contactor, so that the auxiliary contact 21 can be electrically connected to the switch element 23 through the connecting member 22, thereby forming a circuit indicating the on-off state of the main contact assembly 1. On the other hand, the elastic clamping portion 221 can elastically abut against the auxiliary contact 21 with a certain pressure, ensuring good and reliable conductive contact with the auxiliary contact 21, improving the contact stability, and ensuring that the auxiliary contact assembly 2 can accurately indicate the on-off state of the DC contactor main circuit (formed by the main contact assembly 1).
