Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of contactors, in particular to an arc guide plate structure of a contactor. Background Art

[0002] In power systems and electrical equipment, contactors, as important switching elements, are widely used in various control circuits. The arc guide plates of traditional contactor static contacts often adopt the "b" type or "u" type structures. Although these two structures play a role in arc guiding and enhancing the electromagnetic field to a certain extent, there are still some deficiencies. Specifically, the "b" type structure enhances the electromagnetic field through a closed loop and an outer extension part, and guides the arc to move outward. However, during the movement of the arc, there is a phenomenon of transient reduction in magnetic field intensity, which is not conducive to the rapid extinction and movement of the arc. The "u" type structure enhances the electromagnetic field through its opening type design and blows the arc outward. However, due to the lack of extension at its upper end part, the arc may stop prematurely during the movement, resulting in insufficient arc movement distance and reduced arc extinguishing efficiency. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] In view of this, the purpose of the utility model is to provide an arc guide plate structure of a contactor with strong arc extinguishing efficiency, stable and reliable performance, and high safety.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts such an arc guide plate structure of a contactor, which includes a housing. A static contact and an arc guide plate are arranged inside the housing. An arc extinguishing chamber is arranged at one end of the static contact. An arc extinguishing grid plate group is arranged inside the arc extinguishing chamber. The arc guide plate is connected to one side of the static contact. The arc guide plate includes a connecting part horizontally extending outward from the outer edge of the static contact, an inclined part horizontally connected to the connecting part and inclined upward, and a bent part horizontally connected to the connecting part and bent downward.

[0005] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the above structure are as follows: The outer extension part of the arc guide plate and the inclined part together constitute a longer arc movement path, enabling the arc to be more fully driven by the electromagnetic field, quickly and stably move outward into the arc extinguishing chamber, thereby significantly improving the arc extinguishing efficiency. Moreover, strong electromagnetic fields can be generated on both sides of the upper and lower ends of the arc guide plate. This enhanced electromagnetic field not only helps to guide the movement of the arc but also elongates the arc, effectively preventing the reignition and diffusion of the arc, and further improving the safety and reliability of the contactor.

[0006] The present utility model is further configured such that an included angle is formed between the inclined portion and the connecting portion, and a certain gap is maintained between the upper end of the inclined portion and the arc extinguishing grid plate group in the arc extinguishing chamber. The included angle formed between the inclined portion and the connecting portion can more precisely control the movement path of the arc from the contact to the arc extinguishing chamber, reducing the deviation and jitter of the arc during movement, ensuring that the arc can move smoothly along a predetermined trajectory. The gap between the inclined portion and the arc extinguishing grid plate group allows cold air or a cooling medium to enter, more effectively cool the arc, and also promote the splitting and diffusion of the arc.

[0007] The present utility model is further configured such that the static contact includes a static contact point and a body portion. One end of the body portion has a guiding portion extending forward, and the other end of the body portion has a hook portion formed by lifting and folding back at the end of the guiding portion. The static contact point is connected to one end of the hook portion, and the bending portion is fixedly connected to the guiding portion. The static contact point and the body portion are integrally formed, improving the overall structural strength of the contact, reducing the risk of loosening or breaking due to the connection of different components. The bending portion being fixedly connected to the guiding portion provides additional support for the overall structure of the static contact. Description of the Drawings
