Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of switch cabinets, and particularly relates to a self-locking device for a switch cabinet. Background Art
[0002] The primary function of switchgear is to open and close, control, and protect electrical equipment during the power generation, transmission, distribution, and conversion processes of power systems. Switchgear components primarily include circuit breakers, disconnectors, earthing switches, load switches, operating mechanisms, transformers, and various protective devices. They are primarily used in a variety of applications, including power plants, substations, petrochemicals, metallurgy and steel rolling, light industry and textiles, factories and mines, residential communities, and high-rise buildings. Switchgear is a crucial piece of electrical equipment in power transmission and transformation systems. Misoperation can cause equipment damage at best, power system failures at worst, and even endanger human life. Therefore, switchgear must possess comprehensive and reliable interlocking functionality to ensure the safe operation of both personnel and the power grid.
[0003] The circuit breaker trolley in a center-mounted switchgear has two positions within the trolley compartment: the working position and the test position. After commissioning the circuit breaker trolley in the test position, the trolley compartment door must be closed. The operating handle then drives the propulsion mechanism to advance the trolley to the working position. To ensure safety during operation and maintenance, the trolley compartment door cannot be opened while the trolley is in the working position (which may be in electrical operation). It can only be opened when the trolley is in the test position. However, in existing technology, the trolley compartment door is typically opened and closed with a padlock, allowing it to be opened at will regardless of whether the trolley is in the working position or not, posing a safety hazard.

[0034] The self-locking device for a switch cabinet provided by the present utility model includes a handcart chamber, a partition plate, a first locking pin, a door body, and a second
[0035] locking pin. The partition plate is installed in the handcart chamber and divides the handcart chamber into a first chamber and a second chamber. The first chamber and the second chamber are arranged along a first direction. A first pin hole adapted to the first locking pin is opened on the partition plate. The first locking pin can be movably installed in the first pin hole along the first direction. The door body is hinged to the handcart chamber, and the door body is used to open and close the first chamber.

[0046] Embodiment:
[0047] The present embodiment provides a self-locking device for a switch cabinet to solve the technical problem that the door of the handcart compartment in the prior art cannot be interlocked with the circuit breaker handcart. The self-locking device for the switch cabinet includes a handcart compartment 1, a partition 2, a first locking pin 3, a door body 4, and a second locking pin 5, where:
[0048] The front end of the handcart compartment 1 has an opening.
[0049] The partition 2 is installed in the handcart compartment 1, dividing the handcart compartment 1 into a first chamber 11 and a second chamber 12. The first chamber 11 and the second chamber 12 are arranged along a first direction, that is, the first chamber 11 is located above the second chamber 12.
[0050] The partition 2 is provided with a first pin hole 21 adapted to the first locking pin 3. The first locking pin 3 is movably installed in the first pin hole 21 along the first direction, and one end of the first locking pin 3 is located in the first chamber 11 and the other end is located in the second chamber 12.
[0051] The door body 4 is hinged to the handcart chamber 1, that is, the door body 4 is located at the opening, and the door body 4 is used to open and close the first chamber 11.
[0052] A second pin hole 41 adapted to the second locking pin 5 is provided at the bottom end of the door body 4. The second locking pin 5 is movably installed in the handcart chamber 1 along a first direction. The first locking pin 3 and the second locking pin 5 are arranged at intervals along a second direction. The first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other. In this way, through the cooperation of the second locking pin 5 and the second pin hole 41, when the second locking pin 5 is inserted into the second pin hole 41, the door body 4 cannot be opened.
[0053] The second locking pin 5 has a first state and a second state, wherein:
[0054] In the first state, when the first locking pin 3 contracts, the second locking pin 5 is inserted into the second pin hole 41;
[0055] In the second state, when the second locking pin 5 extends, the second locking pin 5 is separated from the door body 4.
[0056] With the above structure, when using the self-locking device for switch cabinets provided by the present utility model, first place the circuit breaker handcart at the test position in the handcart chamber 1, and make the end of the circuit breaker handcart away from the door body 4 abut against
[0057] the top end of the first locking pin 3, then close the door body 4, and then drive the circuit breaker handcart to move towards the working position. The circuit breaker handcart moves, squeezing the first locking pin 3 to contract along the first direction until the first locking pin 3 is completely below the circuit breaker handcart, and then the second locking pin 5 is inserted into the second pin hole 41 on the bottom wall of the door body 4. Until the circuit breaker finger moves to the working position, the first locking pin 3 is still in the compressed state. In this way, the self-locking of the door body 4 is completed; when it is necessary to repair the circuit breaker handcart, drive the circuit breaker handcart to move towards the test position again until the circuit breaker handcart moves to the test position. The force compressing the first locking pin 3 gradually decreases, the first locking pin 3 gradually extends, and the second locking pin 5 gradually withdraws from the second pin hole 41 until the force compressing the first locking pin 3 completely disappears and the second locking pin 5 is completely separated from the door body 4, and then the door body 4 can be opened again to repair the circuit breaker handcart. In this way, through the cooperation of the first locking pin 3 and the second locking pin 5, when the circuit breaker handcart leaves the test position, the door body 4 cannot be opened; when the circuit breaker handcart is in the test position, that is, in the power-off state, the door body 4 can be opened. Therefore, the self-locking device for switch cabinets provided by the present utility model interlocks the door of the handcart chamber 1 with the circuit breaker handcart, that is, the door of the handcart chamber 1 of the switch cabinet cannot be opened randomly, and the safety performance is higher.
[0058] An optional implementation manner of this embodiment is as follows: It further includes a first sleeve 6 and a first spring 7, wherein:
[0059] One end of the first sleeve 6 is installed in the second chamber 12 and is arranged in the first direction, that is, the axis of the first sleeve 6 is vertically arranged. The first locking pin 3 is slidably installed in the first sleeve 6. In this way, through the setting of the first sleeve 6, the first locking pin 3 performs a linear reciprocating motion in the first direction.
[0060] One end of the first spring 7 is installed on the inner bottom wall of the first sleeve 6, and the other end is installed on the top end of the first locking pin 3. In this way, through the setting of the spring, when the spring returns, it will drive the first locking pin 3 to return simultaneously.
[0061] Optionally, the first spring 7 is a compression spring. In this way, when the first locking pin 3 is squeezed, the compression spring contracts; when the force squeezing the first locking pin 3 disappears, the first spring 7 returns, that is, the first spring 7 elongates and drives the first locking pin 3 to elongate synchronously.
[0062] Optionally, there is an included angle α between the top surface of the first locking pin 3 and the top wall of the partition plate 2, that is, the top surface of the first locking pin 3 is an inclined surface, and the top surface of the first locking pin 3 slopes downward from the working position of the circuit breaker trolley towards the test position of the circuit breaker trolley. In this way, when the circuit breaker trolley is in the test position, the edge where the bottom wall of the circuit breaker trolley intersects with the side wall of the circuit breaker trolley away from the door body 4 is in contact with the above-mentioned inclined surface. When the circuit breaker trolley moves from the test position towards the working position, it gradually squeezes the first locking pin 3 and makes the first locking pin 3 move downward until the highest point of the inclined surface abuts against the bottom wall of the circuit breaker trolley. The circuit breaker trolley continues to move until the circuit breaker trolley reaches the working position, and the first locking pin 3 is still below the circuit breaker trolley. Therefore, through the setting of the inclined surface, it is convenient for the circuit breaker trolley to squeeze the first locking pin 3 and avoid the first locking pin 3 being cut off by the circuit breaker trolley.
[0063] Optionally, the value range of the included angle α is 30°≤α≤70°. Exemplarily, the included angle α can be 30°, 40°, 50°, 60° or 70°, etc. If the included angle is too large, the upper part of the first locking pin 3 is thinner and is easily cut off; if the included angle is too small, it will cause material waste.
[0064] An alternative implementation of this embodiment is as follows: It further includes a second sleeve 8 and a second spring 9, where:
[0065] The second sleeve 8 is installed in the second chamber 12 and is arranged in the first direction, that is, the axes of the first sleeve 6 and the second sleeve 8
[0066] are arranged parallel to each other.
[0067] The second spring 9 is installed between the second sleeve 8 and the second locking pin 5. In this way, through the setting of the second spring 9, when the second spring 9 returns, it drives the second locking pin 5 to return together.
[0068] Optionally, the second spring 9 is a tension spring. In this way, when the second spring 9 is stretched, it drives the second locking pin 5 to move upward together; when the force for stretching the second spring 9 disappears, the second spring 9 returns, driving the second locking pin 5 to move downward together.
[0069] Optionally, the top surface of the second locking pin 5 is an arc surface. In this way, through the setting of the arc top, the second locking pin 5 is more convenient to be inserted into the second pin hole 41.
[0070] An alternative implementation of this embodiment is as follows: It further includes a slide bar 10, a connecting rod 20, a slider 30, and a push rod 40, where:
[0071] One end of the slide bar 10 is slidably installed in the second sleeve 8 along the first direction, and the other end of the slide bar 10 extends out of the second sleeve 8. One end of the second spring 9 is installed on the inner bottom wall of the second sleeve 8, and the other end is installed at the bottom end of the slide bar 10. In this way, through the cooperation of the slide bar 10 and the sleeve, the slide bar 10 performs a linear reciprocating motion along the first direction.
[0072] The connecting rod 20 is installed at the end of the slide bar 10 that extends out of the second sleeve 8. One end of the second locking pin 5 is installed on the connecting rod 20, and one end of the connecting rod 20 is slidably installed on the inner side wall of the second chamber 12, and there is an included angle β between the other end and the bottom wall of the partition 2, that is, the end of the connecting rod 20 close to the first locking pin 3 is a slope.
[0073] Optionally, the value range of the included angle β is 30° ≤ β ≤ 70°.
[0074] The slider 30 is slidably installed in the second chamber 12 along the second direction, and one end of the slider 30 abuts against the other end of the connecting rod 20, that is, one end of the slider 30 abuts against the slope of the connecting rod 20.
[0075] One end of the push rod 40 is installed on the side wall of the first locking pin 3, and there is an included angle γ between the other end and the bottom wall of the partition 2, and it abuts against the other end of the slider 30, that is, the end of the push rod 40 close to the slider 30 is a slope, and the other end of the slider 30 abuts against the slope of the push rod 40.
[0076] Optionally, the value range of the included angle γ is 30° ≤ γ ≤ 70°.
[0077] With the above structure, when the first locking pin 3 is compressed, it drives the push rod 40 installed on the first locking pin 3 to move downward synchronously, thereby pushing the slider 30 to move towards the connecting rod 20, causing the connecting rod 20 to move upward, and further causing the second locking pin 5 installed on the connecting rod 20 to move upward synchronously and insert into the second pin hole 41, thereby achieving the purpose of locking the door body 4; when the force squeezing the first locking pin 3 disappears, under the action of the first spring 7, the first locking pin 3 moves upward, driving the push rod 40 to move upward synchronously, the force pushing the slider 30 disappears, and the force squeezing the connecting rod 20 also disappears simultaneously. Under the action of the second spring 9, the connecting rod 20 moves downward, pushing the slider 30 to move away from the connecting rod 20, causing the slider 30 to reset. At the same time, when the connecting rod 20 moves downward, it drives the second locking pin 5 to move downward until the second locking pin 5 completely exits outside the second pin hole 41, thereby achieving the purpose of opening the door body 4.
[0078] An alternative implementation manner of this embodiment is as follows: It further includes a mounting block 50, which is installed in the second chamber 12 and is located between the first sleeve 6 and the second sleeve 8. A chute 501 is opened at the top of the mounting block 50, and the slider 30 is slidably installed in the chute 501. In this way, through the setting of the chute 501, it is avoided that the slider 30 is offset during the movement, resulting in the failure of the device.
[0079] The above specific implementation manners further elaborate on the purpose, technical solutions, and beneficial effects of the present invention. It should be understood that the above are only the specific implementation manners of the present invention and are not used to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
