DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0016] As Figure 1 shown, an auxiliary switch with a high breaking capacity includes a front mounting plate 1 and a rear mounting plate 2. A plurality of contact box assemblies 3 are superimposed between the front mounting plate 1 and the rear mounting plate 2. A pull rod 4 sequentially passes through the front mounting plate 1, the plurality of contact box assemblies 3 and the rear mounting plate 2. Nuts are screwed at both ends of the pull rod to abut against the front mounting plate 1 and the rear mounting plate 2. The front mounting plate 1 and the rear mounting plate 2 are connected by the nuts, so that the front mounting plate 1, the plurality of contact box assemblies 3 and the rear mounting plate 2 are connected into a switch body.
[0017] As Figure 2As shown in the figure, the contact box assembly 3 includes a box body 5. A cam 6 is provided at the central position of the box body 5. A hole 7 is provided at the center of the cam 6. The hole 7 is a non-circular hole, such as a square hole or a pentagonal hole, etc. A rotating shaft 8 adapted to the hole 7 is sequentially inserted through the holes 7 of the cams 6 of multiple contact box assemblies 3. Moving contact sliders 9 are respectively abutted on both sides of the cam 6. The front end of the moving contact slider 9 is an arc structure. The front end of the moving contact slider 9 abuts on the outer end of the cam 6. The rear end of the moving contact slider 9 is connected to a moving contact piece 10. Moving contacts 11 are provided at both ends of the side of the moving contact piece 10 facing the cam 6. The two ends of the other side of the moving contact piece 10 are connected to the inner wall of the box body 5 through springs 12. A static contact piece 13 is fixedly connected to the box body 5 through a screw 13. A static contact 15 corresponding to the moving contact 11 is provided at the end of the static contact piece 14. A chute 20 parallel to the spring 12 is provided in the box body 5. The moving contact slider 9 is arranged in the chute 20. The moving contact slider 9 slides along the chute 20. The chute 20 plays a guiding role. A magnet block 16 is provided between the static contact piece 13 and the bottom of the box body 5 in the box body 5. The NS poles of the magnet block 16 are on the same straight line as the superposition direction of multiple contact box assemblies 3. The magnetic field directions of the magnet blocks 16 in any two adjacent contact box assemblies 3 are opposite. The switch body formed by superposing multiple contact box assemblies 3 is switched on and off by driving the cam 6 through the rotating shaft 8. The moving contact slider 9 reciprocates under the action of the cam 6 and the spring 12 to drive the moving contact piece 10 to reciprocate, controlling the closing and opening of the moving contact 11 and the static contact 15, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the electrical circuit. When the moving contact 11 and the static contact 15 are disconnected, an arc will be generated. At this time, the magnetic field directions generated by the strip-shaped magnet blocks 16 in the box body 5 are all tangential to the NS closed curve, and the magnetic field directions in the adjacent contact box assemblies 3 are opposite. The magnetic fields generated by the four magnets in each contact box assembly 3 accelerate the magnetic arc extinguishing, prevent the contacts from being severely burned, and at the same time can improve the breaking capacity of the switch, especially for breaking the electrical circuit with high DC inductance.
[0018] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the figure, a limit support block 17 is provided on the lower side of the arc structure at the front end of the moving contact slider 9. By pressing the cam 6 on the limit support block 17, tilting can be prevented, which is convenient for assembly. The rear end of the moving contact slider 9 is set as a U-shaped groove 18. Support arms 19 are provided on both sides of the U-shaped groove 18 facing the moving contact 11. The moving contact piece 10 is fixedly connected to the support arms 19, preventing the moving contact piece 10 from being bent due to force or temperature during the switching process, resulting in the failure of the switch.
