The hook member has a fixed end located outside the housing, and the fixed end has a fixed state of locking the circuit breaker and a separated state of separating from the circuit breaker. A limiting block is arranged in the housing. The lock core is linked with the rotating block. The rotating block has a locked state located on the relative sliding track of the limiting block and an unlocked state not located on the relative sliding track of the limiting block. The lock core can not only drive the rotating block to rotate, but also drive the rotating block to move vertically upward by pressing the lock core, thereby driving the moving block to move vertically upward

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, in the unlocked state, the user first manually presses the movable block to move the hook downward, turning the hook into a fixed state, thereby locking the circuit breaker switch. Then, the user rotates the key to drive the lock cylinder to turn the rotating block into a locked state. At this time, the movable block cannot move and the hook cannot move, thereby achieving mechanical interlocking and completing the fixation of the circuit breaker switch. By integrating the lock cylinder and the circuit breaker lock into the same housing, the need for external locks is eliminated and the number of components is reduced. At the same time, the lock cylinder, rotating block, movable block and hook all move vertically, reducing the required volume of the entire circuit breaker lock.

In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third" are only used for descriptive purposes and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0025] As Figures 1-3 shown, the present utility model discloses a micro circuit breaker lock with a built-in lock, which includes a housing 1 and a lock core 2, a rotating block 3, a moving block 4 and a hook member 5 arranged in the housing 1. The moving block 4 is vertically slidably arranged in the housing 1. The rotating block 3 and the hook member 5 are arranged on the moving block 4 and move vertically with the moving block 4. The hook member 5 has a fixed end 51 located outside the housing 1, and the fixed end 51 has a fixed state of locking the circuit breaker and a separated state of separating from the circuit breaker. A limiting block 11 is arranged in the housing 1. The lock core 2 drives the rotating block 3 to rotate. The rotating block 3 has a locked state located on the relative sliding track of the limiting block 11 and an unlocked state not located on the relative sliding track of the limiting block 11. The lock core 2 can not only drive the rotating block 3 to rotate, but also drive the rotating block 3 to move vertically upward by pressing the lock core 2, thereby driving the moving block 4 to move vertically upward. In the unlocked state, the user first manually presses the moving block 4 to move the hook member 5 downward, converting the hook member 5 into a fixed state, thereby locking the circuit breaker switch. Then, the user rotates the key to drive the lock core 2 to convert the rotating block into a locked state. At this time, the moving block 4 cannot move, and the hook member 5 cannot move, realizing mechanical interlocking and completing the fixation of the circuit breaker switch. By integrating the lock core 2 and the circuit breaker lock in the same housing 1, the need for an external hanging lock is eliminated, the number of components is reduced. At the same time, the lock core 2, the rotating block 3, the moving block 4 and the hook member 5 all move vertically, reducing the required use volume of the entire circuit breaker lock.

[0026] The moving block 4 has a rotating platform 41, and a limiting notch 42 for the limiting block 11 to pass through is arranged on the rotating platform 41. The rotating part 31 has a matching groove and is rotationally arranged on the moving block 4. The rotating block 3 has a rotating part 31 and a limiting part 32. The rotating part 31 is rotationally arranged on the rotating shaft 43. When the rotating block 3 is in the locked state, the limiting part 32 is opposite to the limiting notch 42. When the rotating block 3 is in the unlocked state, the limiting part 32 is opposite to the rotating platform 41. The user presses the lock core 2, and then pushes the moving block 4 downward through the rotating block 3. The matching of the limiting notch 42 and the limiting block 11 ensures that the moving block 4 can only freely slide in the unlocked state, and mechanical interference prevents movement in the locked state.

[0027] A clamping part 44 is further arranged at the top of the moving block 4, and a clamping port 33 opposite to the clamping part 44 is arranged on the rotating part 31. When the rotating block 3 is in the locked state, the clamping part 44 is matched with the clamping port 33 to form a vertical linkage between the moving block 4 and the rotating block 3. The clamping structure rigidly connects the rotating block 3 and the moving block 4 vertically, avoiding the separation of components caused by vibration, being more stable in the locked state, and preventing the moving block 4 from moving alone.

[0028] A notch 34 is provided at the top of the rotating part 31, and a protruding block 21 opposite to the notch 34 is provided at the bottom of the lock core 2. The protruding block 21 and the notch 34 form a linkage between the lock core 2 and the rotating block 3. The direct fitting design of the protruding block 21 and the notch 34 reduces transmission loss.

[0029] The hook member 5 is in a "J" shape and has a closed state with the openings converging. The moving block 4 has a U-shaped groove 45 for placing the hook member 5 and forming synchronous movement. On both sides of the bottom of the housing 1, there are provided tapered tracks 13 through which the hook member 5 passes, and the tapered tracks 13 gradually converge towards the center in the vertically downward direction. When the hook member 5 is in a fixed state, the opening of the hook member 5 is opened, and the tapered tracks 13 guide the hook member 5 to automatically converge when moving downward, and the clamping force increases linearly with displacement.

[0030] A housing base 12 is snap-fitted at the bottom of the housing 1. The tapered tracks 13 are provided on the housing base 12. A fixing spring 6 for driving the vertical sliding of the moving block 4 is provided between the housing base 12 and the moving block 4. The fixing spring 6 drives the moving block 4 to move upward, so that the hook member 5 can maintain a fixed state.

[0031] Working process: In the unlocked state, the user first manually presses the moving block 4 to compress the fixing spring 6, forcing the hook member 5 to move downward along the tapered track 13 at the bottom of the housing 1. At this time, the opening of the "J"-shaped hook member 5 converges, facilitating the alignment of the hook member 5 with the breaker switch terminal. After placing the terminal, release the pressing, and the fixing spring 6 pushes the moving block 4 to move upward and reset. The hook member 5 moves upward accordingly and the opening gradually expands along the sliding track, finally clamping the breaker terminal and the terminal to form an interference fit. Finally, the user rotates the key to drive the lock core 2, and the rotating block 3 rotates to the locked state through the cooperation of the protruding block 21 and the notch 34. At this time, the limiting portion 32 of the rotating block 3 is misaligned with the limiting notch 42 of the moving block 4, and the limiting block 11 blocks the downward movement of the moving block 4, realizing mechanical interlocking and completing the fixation of the breaker switch.
