[0002] A molded case circuit breaker is also known as a device type circuit breaker. All parts are sealed in a plastic housing, and auxiliary contacts, under-voltage release devices, shunt release devices, etc. mostly adopt modularization. A molded case circuit breaker usually includes a contact system, an arc extinguishing system, an operating mechanism, a tripping mechanism, an overload protection system, a short-circuit protection system, etc. In the existing molded case circuit breaker, an arc isolation member is arranged on the arc extinguishing chamber to prevent metal particles melted by the arc from flying out of the arc extinguishing chamber and entering other mechanisms of the molded case circuit breaker. The arc extinguishing chamber includes an upper arc extinguishing grid, a middle arc extinguishing grid and a lower arc extinguishing grid. Left and right arc isolation plates are arranged on both sides of the arc extinguishing grid, and an arc extinguishing cover is arranged between the left and right arc isolation plates. The arc isolation cover on the arc extinguishing chamber on the market is composed of 3 parts (left arc isolation cover a, right arc isolation cover b and 7-shaped arc isolation cover c). As Figure 1 shown, the two side arc isolation covers a and b on both sides are hot riveted, and then a "7"-shaped arc isolation cover is added on it. The hot riveting process is complex and is easily detached and jammed with the moving contact, resulting in the product being unable to close. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] Aiming at the above-mentioned disadvantages of the existing technology, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a molded case circuit breaker with simple structure, convenient and reliable assembly, safe use and good arc isolation effect.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve its technical problems is that a molded case circuit breaker includes an arc extinguishing component installed in a receiving groove of a bottom case. The arc extinguishing component includes two oppositely arranged side plates and a plurality of arc extinguishing sheets arranged at a certain inclination interval between the two side plates. The arc extinguishing sheet includes a communication part in the middle and extending ends on both sides. A U-shaped notch is formed between the extending ends. A first cover shell is arranged between the side plates. The first cover shell includes a first vertical cover plate and a first horizontal cover plate. The first vertical cover plate is arranged at the lower part of the front side of the two side plates to form a lower socket. The lower socket cooperates with the lower part of the U-shaped notch. First inner plates are further formed on both sides of the first vertical cover plate relative to the lower socket. The first inner plates cooperate with the corresponding side plates to cover the front ends of the lower extending ends. Positioning baffles are respectively arranged on the outer sides of the corresponding first inner plates of the first vertical cover plate. The positioning baffles form positioning of the corresponding side plates. The first horizontal cover plate corresponds to the bottom of the side plates and is set as a convex plate, and the lower ends of the positioning baffles all extend to both sides of the convex first horizontal cover plate.

[0005] Advantages of adopting the above technical solution: Since the first cover shell adopts the structure of the first vertical cover plate and the first horizontal cover plate, and is integrally formed into a single component, and the first inner plate and the positioning baffle are respectively formed on both sides of the lower notch of the corresponding U-shaped notch on the first vertical cover plate. During installation, first fix multiple arc extinguishing sheets to the side plates on both sides through jigs, which is a step that existed before. Then, the two side plates are respectively installed vertically along the first vertical cover plate through the channels formed by the first inner plate and the positioning baffle arranged on the left and right. After being installed in place, the front end of the lower extension end will be covered by the first inner plate, thus being separated from the moving contact. In this way, it can prevent the molten metal particles generated during the circuit breaker breaking from cooling and depositing in the gap between the lower extension end and the moving contact. At the same time, the positioning baffle also prevents the moving contact from contacting the first inner plate, avoiding the melting of the first inner plate due to the overheating of the moving contact after the circuit breaker breaks. At the same time, the first horizontal cover plate is set as a convex plate to better form a fitting limit with the side plate. The above structural design of the first cover shell is convenient and reliable in the assembly method with the side plate, which not only solves the problem that the hot riveting process will fall off, making it safer to use, but also saves the cost and assembly time of 2 parts. At the same time, the arc isolation effect is also good, and it also ensures the safe opening and closing operation of the moving contact.

[0006] Further, a second cover shell is also provided between the side plates. The second cover shell includes a second vertical cover plate and a second horizontal cover plate. The second vertical cover plate is arranged at the upper front side of the two side plates and forms an upper socket. The upper socket cooperates with the upper part of the U-shaped notch. The second vertical cover plate also forms second inner plates on both sides of the upper socket. The second inner plates cooperate with the corresponding side plates to cover the front end of the upper extension end. The second horizontal cover plate is arranged corresponding to the top of the side plates. There are clamping blocks and clamping grooves between both sides of the second horizontal cover plate and the top of the corresponding side plates.

[0007] Advantages of adopting the above technical solution: By providing a second cover shell composed of a second vertical cover plate and a second horizontal cover plate, and being integrally formed into a single component, and forming second inner plates on both sides of the upper notch of the corresponding U-shaped notch on the second vertical cover plate, and also arranging clamping blocks and clamping grooves between the second horizontal cover plate and the top of the side plates. After the arc extinguishing component is installed on the first cover shell, then the second horizontal cover plate is clamped to the side plates. After being installed in place, the front end of the upper extension end will be covered by the second inner plates, thus being separated from the moving contact. In this way, it can prevent the molten metal particles generated during the circuit breaker breaking from cooling and depositing in the gap between the upper extension end and the moving contact. The above structural design of the second cover shell is simple and reasonable, and also makes it safer to use.

[0008] Further, the arc extinguishing component further includes an upper arc leading sheet and a lower arc leading sheet respectively located above and below the multiple arc extinguishing sheets. The upper arc leading sheet has an upper arc leading foot that cooperates with the U-shaped notch. The lower arc leading sheet has a lower arc leading foot that cooperates with the U-shaped notch.

[0009] Advantages of adopting the above technical solution: By providing an upper arcing piece and a lower arcing piece, and respectively providing an upper arcing foot and a lower arcing foot that cooperate with the U-shaped notch on the upper arcing piece and the lower arcing piece, the arcs generated at the bottom and the top can be guided more fully and precisely into the arc extinguishing chamber, so as to achieve the purpose of efficient arc extinguishing, and the structural design is reasonable.

[0010] Further, a first positioning portion is vertically provided on the outer side wall of the first vertical cover plate, and a corresponding second positioning portion is provided in the receiving groove of the bottom case. The first positioning portion cooperates with the second positioning portion to position and install the arc extinguishing assembly in the receiving groove of the bottom case.

[0011] Advantages of adopting the above technical solution: Through the cooperation of the first positioning portion and the second positioning portion, the position of the arc extinguishing assembly in the receiving groove of the bottom case is limited, so that the cooperation between the arc extinguishing assembly and the moving contact is more precise, the use is safer, and at the same time, the installation of the arc extinguishing assembly is also convenient.

[0012] Further, an inner arc dividing piece and an outer arc dividing piece are also installed in the receiving groove of the bottom case at the rear side of the arc extinguishing assembly. The inner arc dividing piece and the outer arc dividing piece are attached to each other. A plurality of arc extinguishing through grooves are spaced and penetrated through the inner arc dividing piece. Cutting grooves are formed on the mounting feet on both sides of the outer arc dividing piece to make the outer arc dividing piece elastic.

[0013] Advantages of adopting the above technical solution: Through the cooperation of the inner arc dividing piece with arc extinguishing through grooves and the outer arc dividing piece with cutting grooves on the pins, the purpose of multi-directional arc division is achieved, so that the arc is less likely to splash into other mechanisms of the circuit breaker, thereby playing a role in preventing partial failure of the mechanism during the breaking process of the circuit breaker, and the safety is better.

[0014] Further, a first arc-shaped baffle is formed at the bottom of the lower socket, and a second arc-shaped baffle is formed at the other end of the first horizontal cover plate.

[0015] Advantages of adopting the above technical solution: The first arc-shaped baffle and the second arc-shaped baffle are used to prevent the circuit from being broken down at the shortest position during conduction, avoid the occurrence of arcing phenomenon, and make the use of the arc extinguishing chamber safer.

[0016] Further, the molded case circuit breaker further includes a static contact installed in the receiving groove of the bottom case.

The supporting column abuts against the bottom of the bending portion through the hollow portion, and the lower ends of the first inner plates are all provided as arc-shaped surfaces that cooperate with the upper surface of the bending portion.

[0017] Advantages of adopting the above technical solution: The contact end of the static contact on the arc extinguishing piece side is set as a bending part to carry the static contact point, enabling the static contact point to contact the external moving contact more fittingly. Moreover, a stable support for the bending part is formed by the supporting column and the lower end of the first inner plate, thereby ensuring the actual contact area of the contact system, and thus the service life and reliability are higher.

[0018] Furthermore, an avoidance groove for cooperating with the static contact is also provided at the bottom of the first horizontal cover plate.

[0019] Advantages of adopting the above technical solution: The setting of the avoidance groove effectively reduces the overall height on the premise of ensuring the arc isolation effect. Brief Description of the Drawings
