DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] An embodiment of the present application discloses an operating mechanism for a load isolation switch.

[0026] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 The operating mechanism of the load isolating switch includes a rotating seat 1 for rotating in the insulating housing of the load isolating switch, and multiple groups of moving contacts 2 are detachably mounted on the rotating seat 1, each group of moving contacts 2 has two, and this embodiment is illustrated by taking two groups of moving contacts 2 as an example. The rotating seat 1 is penetrated by a mounting groove 10, and the two groups of moving contacts 2 are inserted in the mounting groove 10 in a sequentially parallel and spaced manner.

[0027] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the rotating seat 1 is also provided with a first cover plate 3 and a second cover plate 4 for respectively covering the openings on both sides of the mounting groove 10. The first cover plate 3 and the second cover plate 4 are arranged opposite to each other, the first cover plate 3 is detachably mounted on the rotating seat 1, and the second cover plate 4 is fixedly mounted on the rotating seat 1. The first cover plate 3 and the second cover plate 4 are penetrated with a through hole 11 for allowing the ends of the respective opposite moving contacts 2 to pass through the mounting groove 10 to the outside of the rotating seat 1.

[0028] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a buckle 12 facing the first cover plate 3 is integrally formed on the inner side wall of the mounting groove 10, and the buckle 12 is made of plastic with a certain deformation ability. A clearance groove 15 is also provided on the rotating seat 1, which is located on the side of the buckle 12 away from the first cover plate 3, and the clearance groove 15 is used to provide the buckle 12 with a deformation space to bend in a direction away from the first cover plate 3. A clamping groove 30 for clamping with the buckle 12 is provided on the first cover plate 3, and the first cover plate 3 can be detachably mounted on the rotating seat 1 through the mutual clamping of the buckle 12 and the clamping groove 30. When it is necessary to release the locking of the first cover plate 3 by the buckle 12, an external force is applied to the buckle 12 in a direction away from the first cover plate 3, and as the buckle 12 gradually bends into the clearance groove 15 until the buckle 12 withdraws from the clamping groove 30, the locking of the first cover plate 3 can be released at this time, and in this state, the first cover plate 3 can be removed from the opening of the mounting groove 10.

[0029] like Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, a guide bar 16 is integrally formed on the inner side wall of the installation groove 10, and the length of the guide bar 16 extends along the direction in which the first cover plate 3 is inserted into the installation groove 10. The guide bar 16 is located on the side of the first cover plate 3 away from the buckle 12, and a guide groove 31 facing the guide bar 16 is provided on the first cover plate 3. The guide groove 31 is used to be plugged with the guide bar 16, and the first cover plate 3 is plugged and arranged outside the guide bar 16 through the guide groove 31. When the first cover plate 3 is installed, the mutual plug-in cooperation between the guide bar 16 and the guide groove 31 can guide the installation of the first cover plate 3, thereby ensuring that the installation position of the first cover plate 3 is accurate and preventing the first cover plate 3 from being offset.

[0030] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 As shown, an assembly rack 5 located between the first cover plate 3 and the second cover plate 4 can be detachably installed in the installation groove 10, and each group of moving contacts 2 is mounted on the same assembly rack 5. The first cover plate 3 and the second cover plate 4 are used to limit and fix the assembly rack 5 and the moving contacts 2 on the installation groove 10 and the rotating seat 1. A plurality of limit sockets 50 facing each automatic contact 2 are integrally formed on the assembly rack 5, and a limit slot 20 facing each limit socket 50 is integrally formed on the outer side wall of the moving contact 2. The limit slot 20 is used for inserting the respective relative limit sockets 50 into the moving contact 2.

[0031] The assembly frame 5 has a certain elastic deformation ability. When the moving contact 2 is plugged into the assembly frame 5, the limiting socket 50 will first contact the outer wall of the moving contact 2. At this time, the limiting socket 50 will push the assembly frame 5 to bend away from each automatic contact 2 under the reaction force of the outer wall of the moving contact 2, until the limiting socket 50 moves to face the respective relative limiting slots 20. At this time, the limiting socket 50 will automatically insert into the respective relative limiting slots 20. Through the mutual plug-in cooperation of the limiting socket 50 and the limiting slot 20, the moving contact 2 can be fixed on the assembly frame 5. The connection stability and reliability of each group of moving contacts 2 installed on the assembly frame 5 are further improved.

[0032] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, a resisting block 21 is integrally formed on the side wall of the moving contact 2 away from the limiting slot 20 , and the resisting blocks 21 on the moving contacts 2 in the same group are arranged opposite to each other, and the resisting blocks 21 resist each other under the limiting position of the limiting sockets 50 on both sides.

[0033] like Figure 2 , Figure 4As shown, the first cover plate 3 and the second cover plate 4 are integrally formed with positioning grooves 13 facing the respective opposing abutment blocks 21, one side of the mutually abutting abutment blocks 21 is inserted and limited in the respective opposing positioning grooves 13, and the outer side wall of the abutment block 21 limited in the positioning groove 13 is mutually fitted with the inner side wall of the positioning groove 13. The positioning groove 13 can further limit the moving contact 2, thereby further improving the overall stability of the moving contact 2.

[0034] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a limiting frame 14 is integrally formed on the inner side wall of the installation groove 10, and the limiting frame 14 is located on the insertion path for placing the assembly rack 5 in the installation groove 10, and the limiting frame 14 is used to contact one side of the assembly rack 5 placed in the installation groove 10. When the assembly rack 5 with the moving contact 2 installed is placed in the installation groove 10, the limiting frame 14 can limit the assembly rack 5, thereby effectively preventing the assembly rack 5 from falling from the opening on the other side of the installation groove 10.

[0035] The implementation principle is: when the moving contact 2 needs to be removed from the rotating seat 1, first release the mutual engagement between the buckle 12 and the slot 30, and then take the first cover plate 3 out of the mounting slot 10. At this time, the moving contact 2 together with the assembly frame 5 can be smoothly taken out from a side opening of the mounting slot 10. The entire removal process is convenient and quick. Compared with the traditional method of fixing with fasteners, the disassembly work can be completed without the aid of designated disassembly tools. When installing the moving contact 2, first pre-install the moving contact 2 on the assembly frame 5, then align one end of the moving contact 2 with the through hole 11 on the second cover plate 4 and insert it into the installation groove 10, then align the through hole 11 on the first cover plate 3 with the other end of the moving contact 2 and insert it, and put the first cover plate 3 on the outside of the moving contact 2, and finally fix the first cover plate 3 on the rotating seat 1 through the mutual snap connection between the buckle 12 and the slot 30. At this time, under the action of the first cover plate 3 and the second cover plate 4, the moving contact 2 can be limited and fixed on the rotating seat 1, thereby improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency.

[0036] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
