Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of disconnecting switches, in particular to a novel electric disconnecting switch. Background Technique

[0002] A disconnecting switch is a key switching device in an electrical system, mainly used for isolating the power supply under no-load conditions, performing switching operations, and connecting and disconnecting small-current circuits. Through its unique mechanical structure design, it ensures the safety of the maintenance and repair work of electrical equipment. Modern disconnecting switches adopt high-quality conductive materials, optimized structural designs, and high-quality insulating materials, improving their reliability, durability, and electrical insulation performance, and are widely used in multiple fields such as power systems, household appliances, and industrial automation.

[0003] In an electrical system, an arc is a discharge phenomenon generated due to the interruption of current, which may cause equipment damage and safety hazards. As a switching device without an arc extinguishing function, special attention needs to be paid to the generation of arcs during the operation of a disconnecting switch. To effectively prevent arcs, a series of safety measures are designed for disconnecting switches, such as optimizing the contact shape and materials, using arc-resistant materials, and improving insulation performance. In special application scenarios, such as high-voltage power systems, the impact of arcs on the surrounding environment and personnel also needs to be considered. Therefore, some advanced disconnecting switch designs adopt fast arc extinguishing technology to ensure the safety of operations.

[0004] Patent document CN219303546U discloses a disconnecting switch, including a mounting plate, a moving contact support, a static contact support, and a moving contact. The moving contact support and the static contact support are mounted on the mounting plate. The moving contact is hinged on the moving contact support. The static contact support is the component that the moving contact contacts when closed. The electrical contact between the moving contact and the static contact support can achieve the opening of the circuit. On the moving contact support, on both sides of the moving contact, there are upward extension plates. The inner sides of the extension plates contact the moving contact and push the moving contact inward. The extension plates are conductive sheets and are electrically connected to the moving contact support. Such a disconnecting switch has the advantage of ensuring good contact between the moving contact and the moving contact support.

[0005] In the prior art of the above patent, the disconnecting switch is a key switching device in the electrical system, and the closing and opening of the circuit are achieved through the movement of the moving contact. However, during the operation of the above device, an arc is easily generated between the moving contact and the static contact, which is caused by the ionization of air due to the change of voltage and current in the circuit. The high temperature and strong light generated by the arc pose potential hazards to the operator and external devices, such as burns, eye injuries, and equipment damage. To reduce these hazards, an arc extinguishing cover can be set at the contact point, but this may also bring challenges such as a decrease in heat dissipation performance and inconvenient operation. Therefore, when designing a disconnecting switch, it is necessary to comprehensively consider arc suppression, heat dissipation performance, and operation convenience to achieve its stable and reliable operation and ensure the safety of personnel and equipment. Summary of the Invention

The screw rod is threadedly connected with the side wall of the moving frame. A motor is fixedly installed on the side wall of one of the connecting plates. The output end of the motor is in transmission connection with the screw rod.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution: The arc extinguishing cover is detachably arranged at the top of the moving frame.

[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution: Threaded holes are opened on the side walls of the arc extinguishing cover and the side wall of the moving frame. Bolts are threadedly installed on the threaded holes. The arc extinguishing cover is fixedly installed at the top of the moving frame through the bolts.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution: A plurality of heat dissipation grooves are opened at the top of the base.

[0012] The present utility model provides a new type of electric disconnecting switch.

There is no need for staff to close the switch, which increases the safety performance and protection performance of the device. And the arc extinguishing cover does not cover the static contact before closing, which does not affect the heat dissipation of the device.
