[0028] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features and technical solutions in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0029] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, further definition and explanation thereof is not required in subsequent drawings.

[0030] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4 , a protective shell, comprising a first protective shell 1, one end of the first protective shell 1 is slidably connected to a second protective shell 2, an assembly groove 5 is opened inside the first protective shell 1 near one end of the second protective shell 2, an assembly plate 6 is fixed to one end of the second protective shell 2 near the first protective shell 1, the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 are slidably connected through the cooperation of the assembly groove 5 and the assembly plate 6, so that the connection between the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 can be more stable, an additional plate 3 is arranged between the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2, the additional plate 3 and the first protective shell 1, and the additional plate 3 and the second protective shell 2 are all slidably connected, so that the assembly plate 6 can also be fixed to one end of the additional plate 3 near the first protective shell 1, and an assembly groove 5 is also opened inside the additional plate 3 near one end of the second protective shell 2, so that the assembly of the additional plate 3 can be facilitated, and different numbers of additional plates 3 can be selected according to needs;

[0031] A positioning mechanism for limiting the second protective shell 2 is installed at one end of the first protective shell 1, and the positioning mechanism includes a first positioning plate 4, a second positioning plate 7, a card plate 8 and a sliding plate 10. A sliding plate 10 is fixed to one end of the first positioning plate 4, and the sliding plate 10 is slidably connected to the second positioning plate 7 on the outer side away from one end of the first positioning plate 4, so that the second positioning plate 7 can adjust the distance between it and the first positioning plate 4 by sliding on the outer side of the sliding plate 10. A card plate 8 is fixed on one side of the first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 7. The card plate 8 and the first protective shell 1, and the card plate 8 and the second protective shell 2 are all slidably connected. The shape of the card plate 8 is L-shaped, and an assembly inclined surface 9 is provided on the side of the bottom of the card plate 8 close to the first positioning plate 4, so that after the two card plates 8 are respectively installed in the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 through the assembly inclined surfaces 9, the position between the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 can be limited by fixing the first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 7.

[0032] The use process of a protective shell provided by the utility model is as follows: according to the width of the circuit breaker to be protected, an appropriate number of additional plates 3 are selected, and the number of additional plates 3 can be zero or more. When zero additional plates 3 are selected, the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 are directly assembled through a sliding connection. When multiple additional plates 3 are selected, two adjacent additional plates 3 among the multiple additional plates 3 are assembled by sliding connection, and then the assembled multiple additional plates 3 are placed between the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2, and they are integrated through sliding connection;

[0033] Then, according to the different number of additional plates 3 selected, pull the second positioning plate 7 to slide on the outside of the sliding plate 10. When the second positioning plate 7 is pulled to the appropriate position, the clamping plates 8 on one side of the first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 7 can slide into the first protective shell 1 or the second protective shell 2. Then, the first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 7 are lowered to drive the clamping plate 8 to lower, so that the first protective shell 1 and the second protective shell 2 can be installed on the outside of the circuit breaker to increase protection.

[0034] Embodiment 2

[0035] Reference Figure 5-Figure 7 , a protective shell, the interior of the second positioning plate 7 and the top of the sliding plate 10 are rotatably connected to the limiting gear 11, the limiting gear 11 is meshed and connected with the sliding plate 10, so that when the rotation of the limiting gear 11 is limited, the movement of the sliding plate 10 can be limited, and the interior of the second positioning plate 7 is equipped with a limiting mechanism for limiting the rotation of the limiting gear 11, the limiting mechanism includes a positioning screw 12, an anti-rotation block 13, a synchronous plate 14, a guide column 15 and a lifting limiting column 16, the inside of the second positioning plate 7 is rotatably connected with the positioning screw 12 on the side away from the second protective shell 2, the outer side of the positioning screw 12 close to the side of the limiting gear 11 is threadedly connected with the anti-rotation block 13, and the anti-rotation block 13 is slidably connected with the limiting gear 11, so that when the anti-rotation block 13 is located on the inner side of the limiting gear 11, the limiting gear 11 cannot rotate, and the shape of the anti-rotation block 13 is a polygon;

[0036] A guide column 15 is fixed inside the second positioning plate 7 and at one end of the positioning screw 12. A lifting limit column 16 is slidably connected to the outside of the guide column 15. The lifting limit column 16 and the second positioning plate 7 are slidably connected, and the lifting limit column 16 and the second protective shell 2 are all slidably connected. Therefore, when the lifting limit column 16 is located inside the second protective shell 2, the second positioning plate 7 cannot be lifted or lowered. A synchronous plate 14 is fixed between the anti-rotation block 13 and the lifting limit column 16, so that the movement of the anti-rotation block 13 drives the lifting limit column 16 to move through the synchronous plate 14.

[0037] In other embodiments, a limiting mechanism may also be installed inside the first positioning plate 4, and the lifting limiting column 16 in the limiting mechanism inside the first positioning plate 4 is slidably connected to the first protective shell 1 to increase the lifting limit of the first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 7.

[0038] The use process of a protective shell provided by the utility model is as follows: when it is necessary to fix the position of the sliding plate 10, the positioning screw 12 is rotated to allow the rotation of the positioning screw 12 to drive the threaded anti-rotation block 13 to move. At this time, the synchronous plate 14 fixed between the anti-rotation block 13 and the lifting limit column 16 prevents the anti-rotation block 13 from rotating simultaneously with the positioning screw 12, and allows the rotation of the positioning screw 12 to drive the anti-rotation block 13 to move in the direction close to the limit gear 11. The movement of the anti-rotation block 13 enters the interior of the slidingly connected limit gear 11, restricts the rotation of the limit gear 11, and allows the limit gear 11 to limit the position of the meshing sliding plate 10. At the same time, the movement of the anti-rotation block 13 drives the lifting limit column 16 to move through the synchronous plate 14, allowing the lifting limit column 16 to slide on the outside of the guide column 15 and enter the interior of the second protective shell 2 to limit the rise of the second positioning plate 7.

[0039] The preferred embodiments of the utility model disclosed above are only used to help explain the utility model. The preferred embodiments do not describe all the details in detail, nor do they limit the utility model to the specific implementation methods described. Obviously, many modifications and changes can be made according to the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments in order to better explain the principles and practical applications of the utility model, so that technicians in the relevant technical field can well understand and use the utility model. The utility model is limited only by the claims and their full scope and equivalents.
