A knife-switch is arranged on the installation seat. The circuit is connected and disconnected by the engagement or separation of the knife-switch and the knife clip seat. An arc extinguishing cover is arranged on the knife clip seat for eliminating the electric arc generated when the knife-switch and the knife clip seat are disconnected.

[0007] Furthermore, two positioning plates are arranged on the installation base by means of bolt connection on both sides of the knife clip seat respectively. An adjusting frame is fixedly connected to the positioning plate. A positioning rod is slidably arranged on the adjusting frame. The positioning rod is used to fix the arc extinguishing cover. A first elastic member is sleeved on the positioning rod for assisting the positioning rod to reset.

[0008] Furthermore, a positioning frame is arranged on the installation base by means of bolt connection. A first guiding rod is fixedly connected to the positioning frame. A clamping plate is slidably arranged on the first guiding rod. When the knife-switch and the knife clip seat are in a wedged state, the clamping plate can be used to clamp the knife-switch. A second elastic member for resetting the clamping plate is sleeved on the first guiding rod.

[0009] Furthermore, a slope is provided at the top of the clamping plate.

[0010] Furthermore, a guide plate is fixedly connected to the mounting base. A push rod is slidably arranged on the guide plate. The push rod can be in contact and cooperation with the clamping plate. A second guide rod is fixedly connected inside the guide plate. The second guide rod is used to guide the push rod. A third elastic member for resetting the push rod is sleeved on the second guide rod.

[0011] Furthermore, an insulating pad is arranged on the surface of the clamping plate that contacts the knife switch.

[0012] Furthermore, a warning card is arranged on the mounting base.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following technical effects: 1. Through the setting of the arc extinguishing cover on the knife clip seat, when the knife switch is separated from the knife clip seat, the arc generated when the knife switch and the knife clip seat are disconnected can be eliminated, playing a role in protecting the switch. In addition, all parts of this device are connected by bolts, which is convenient for assembly.

[0014] 2. By using the positioning rod to clamp and fix the arc extinguishing cover, the arc extinguishing cover is prevented from falling off during the use of the switch.

[0015] 3. When the knife switch and the knife clip seat are wedged, the clamping plate clamps the knife switch to prevent the knife switch from disengaging from the knife clip seat. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Detailed implementation manners

[0024] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , an assembled knife switch, including a mounting base 1, assembly holes 5 are provided at the four corners of the mounting base 1, the mounting seat 2 and the knife clip seat 4 are arranged on the top of the mounting base 1 by means of bolt connection. The design of bolt connection for the parts of this device enables convenient assembly. A knife switch 3 is arranged on the mounting seat 2, and the on-off of the circuit is realized by the wedging or separation of the knife switch 3 and the knife clip seat 4. An arc extinguishing cover 6 is arranged on the knife clip seat 4. The arc extinguishing cover 6 is composed of a cover body and five arc extinguishing grid sheets. When an arc is generated by the disconnection of the knife switch 3 and the knife clip seat 4, under the action of the contraction force of the magnetic lines of force, the arc is drawn into the arc extinguishing grid sheets of the arc extinguishing cover 6. Since there are gaps between each arc extinguishing grid sheet, the arc will be divided into multiple short arcs after entering. When the alternating current passes through zero, all the short arcs will be extinguished. At the same time, the arc extinguishing grid sheets dissipate heat, and the arc is quickly cooled, thereby achieving the arc extinguishing effect. A warning card 20 is arranged on the mounting base 1, which is used to visually present device information and play a warning role.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 3 , two positioning plates 7 are arranged on the top of the mounting base 1 by means of bolt connection and are respectively located on the left and right sides of the knife clip seat 4. An adjusting frame 8 is fixedly connected to the middle of the positioning plate 7 by welding. A positioning rod 9 is slidably arranged on the adjusting frame 8. The positioning rod 9 is used to fix the arc extinguishing cover 6 to prevent the arc extinguishing cover 6 from falling off during the use of the switch. A first elastic member 10 is sleeved on the positioning rod 9, and both ends of the first elastic member 10 are connected to the positioning rod 9 and the positioning plate 7 respectively, which is used to assist the positioning rod 9 to reset.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 5, two positioning frames 11 distributed symmetrically left and right are arranged on the top of the mounting base 1 by means of bolt connection. A first guide rod 13 is fixedly connected to the middle of the positioning frame 11 by means of welding. A clamping plate 12 is slidably arranged on the first guide rod 13. When the knife switch 3 and the knife clip seat 4 are in a wedged state, the clamping plate 12 can be used to clamp the knife switch 3 to prevent the knife switch 3 from disengaging from the knife clip seat 4. And a slope is arranged at the top of the clamping plate 12, which can extrude the clamping plate 12 to move outwards under the action of the slope when the knife switch 3 is reset, without the need for the user to manually pull the clamping plate 12. A second elastic member 14 for resetting the clamping plate 12 is sleeved on the first guide rod 13. Two ends of the second elastic member 14 are respectively connected to the clamping plate 12 and the positioning frame 11. An insulating pad 19 is arranged on the surface of the clamping plate 12 in contact with the knife switch 3, which plays an insulating role to avoid the current transfer on the knife switch 3.

[0028] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 , a guide plate 15 is fixedly connected to the middle position of the top of the mounting base 1. A push rod 16 is slidably arranged on the guide plate 15. The push rod 16 can be in contact and cooperate with the clamping plate 12. By pushing the push rod 16 forward, the two clamping plates can be extruded to move outwards simultaneously to create a moving space for the knife switch 3, which is convenient for use. A second guide rod 17 is fixedly connected inside the guide plate 15. The second guide rod 17 is used to guide the push rod 16 to ensure the stable movement of the push rod 16. A third elastic member 18 for resetting the push rod 16 is sleeved on the second guide rod 17. Two ends of the third elastic member 18 are respectively connected to the push rod 16 and the guide plate 15.
