[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0029] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0030] Reference Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the utility model provides a small circuit breaker that is easy to assemble, including a circuit breaker body 1 and a plurality of locking rods for locking two or more circuit breaker bodies 1. Figure 1As shown, a plurality of locking rod holes 11 are dispersedly arranged on the outer shell of the circuit breaker body 1, and the locking rod holes 11 are used to cooperate with the locking rod clearance to realize the splicing of two or more circuit breaker bodies 1. A limiting groove with a slightly larger inner diameter is provided at the end of the locking rod hole 11, and the limiting groove is used to position the two ends of the locking rod. When splicing, the multi-pole circuit breaker bodies 1 are arranged in parallel, and the multi-pole circuit breaker bodies 1 are combined together through the cooperation of the locking rod and the locking rod hole 11.
[0031] Specifically, the outer shell of the circuit breaker body 1 includes a first cover shell and a second cover shell that match each other, and the first cover shell and the second cover shell are provided with lock rod holes 11 correspondingly. The circuit breaker body 1 also includes a handle 2 and an operating mechanism 3, and the handle 2 drives the moving contact of the circuit breaker to contact or separate with the static contact through the operating mechanism 3 to realize the on-off of the circuit, and the handle center hole 13 is provided in the middle of the part of the handle 2 protruding outside the outer shell of the circuit breaker body 1, and the multi-pole handles 2 are connected through the multi-pole linkage round steel rod 7 to achieve linkage; the operating mechanism 3 has an operating mechanism connection hole 12 on the outside, and the operating mechanisms 3 of each pole circuit breaker are connected through the assembly shaft 6 inserted in the operating mechanism connection hole 12 to achieve linkage.
[0032] Specifically, the locking rod is divided into a single-pole locking rod 4a, a two-pole locking rod 4b and a multi-pole locking rod 4c; the locking rod is made of high-strength, elastic and flame-retardant plastic; the middle of the single-pole locking rod 4a, the two-pole locking rod 4b and the multi-pole locking rod 4c is a hollow cylindrical locking rod body 41, the diameter of the locking rod body 41 is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the locking rod hole 11 on the circuit breaker body 1, the two ends of the locking rod body 41 are radially expanded, and protrude toward the outer peripheral side to form a flange 42, and at least two diameter reduction notches 43 are opened on the pipe diameter at both ends, so that the end forms a slotted multi-petal shape, so that the outer diameter of the flange 42 part can be elastically contracted, which is convenient for assembly. The diameter of the flanges 42 at both ends of the locking rod body 41 is slightly larger than the locking rod hole 11 in the natural state, slightly smaller than the diameter of the limiting groove, and the length is consistent with the groove depth of the limiting groove. After assembly, it is flush with the surface of the circuit breaker body 1.
[0033] To further optimize the solution, at least one disassembly square groove 44 is provided on the outer peripheral side of the flange 42 to facilitate disassembly so that the locking rod can be reused; preferably, two disassembly square grooves 44 are provided on opposite sides of the outer peripheral side of the flange 42.
[0034] like Figure 6 As shown, the overall length of a pole locking rod 4a is consistent with the thickness of a circuit breaker body 1, including a locking rod body 41, flanges 42 located at both ends of the locking rod body 41, reduced diameter notches 43 and disassembly square grooves 44 opened on the sides of both ends of the locking rod body 41.
[0035] like Figure 7As shown, the overall length of the two-pole locking rod 4b is consistent with the thickness of the two circuit breaker bodies 1. Its structure further includes a positioning protrusion 45 located in the middle of the locking rod body 41 on the basis of the single-pole locking rod 4a. The positioning protrusion 45 protrudes radially from the locking rod body 41. Its diameter is the same as that of the flanges 42 at both ends, which are slightly smaller than the limiting grooves. Its length is slightly less than twice the depth of the limiting grooves, which plays a role in positioning between poles.
[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, the overall length of the multi-pole locking rod 4c is determined according to the overall thickness of the circuit breaker body 1 to be spliced, and its structure is based on the single-pole locking rod 4a and also includes multiple positioning protrusions 45 and multiple positioning members 5 connected to the locking rod body 41. The positions of the positioning protrusions 45 and the multiple positioning members 5 are set at the contact position of two adjacent circuit breaker bodies 1, which also plays the role of positioning between poles.
[0037] In some embodiments, the positioning protrusion 45 is integrally formed with the locking rod body 41 .
[0038] In some embodiments, the positioning member 5 is detachably sleeved on the locking rod body 41 and can be adjusted and replaced as needed.
[0039] Further optimization scheme, a positioning member 5 is further provided at the position where the locking rod and the limiting groove of the circuit breaker body 1 meet, and specifically, a positioning member 5 is provided in each corresponding limiting groove of the adjacent two-pole circuit breaker body 1. The positioning structure is as follows Figure 8 As shown, it includes an inner hole for the locking rod body 41 to pass through, the diameter of the inner hole of the positioning member 5 is larger than the diameter of the locking rod, and the positioning member 5 is set as an open ring structure, that is, a C-shaped structure, which is easy to install. The positioning member 5 and the inner wall of the limiting groove are interference fit. During assembly, the positioning member 5 mainly plays a positioning role. Therefore, the positioning member 5 can be omitted in a single-pole circuit breaker (a single circuit breaker body 1) and a two-pole circuit breaker (two circuit breaker bodies 1), and the positioning member 5 needs to be assembled in a three-pole circuit breaker and a four-pole circuit breaker.
[0040] In some embodiments, the positioning protrusion 45 has the same structure as the positioning member 5 , both of which are C-shaped structures with one side open, and only differ in thickness.
[0041] It should be understood that, in practical applications, the number of poles and the length of the locking rod are adaptively adjusted according to the number of spliced circuit breaker bodies 1 .
[0042] The embodiments of the present utility model at least disclose the following technical effects:
[0043] 1. Improve production efficiency and simplify assembly process. Traditional circuit breaker splicing often requires special riveting tools and complicated riveting procedures. However, this design simplifies the process and reduces assembly time by matching the lock rod hole 11 with the plastic lock rod.
[0044] 2. Easy to operate. The use of plastic locking rods reduces the difficulty of assembly. Operators can complete the splicing work without complex training, further improving the operating efficiency of the production line.
[0045] 3. Save costs. Traditional copper rivets are expensive, while the cost of plastic locking rods is relatively low. Long-term use can significantly reduce material costs.
[0046] 4. Reusable. The plastic locking rod is designed to be reusable, which means that when the circuit breaker is repaired or replaced, the locking rod can be disassembled and reused, reducing resource waste.
[0047] 5. The structure is stable. The combination of the locking rod hole 11 and the plastic locking rod provides a stable mechanical connection, ensuring the structural strength and stability of the circuit breaker during use.
[0048] 6. Strong adaptability. The plastic material has a certain elasticity and can adapt to temperature changes in different environments to a certain extent, reducing the problem of loose connections caused by thermal expansion and contraction.
[0049] The parts not described in detail in the present invention are all conventional technical means known to those skilled in the art.
