[0002] IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor), also known as the insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), is a fully controlled, voltage-driven power semiconductor device composed of a BJT (bipolar junction transistor) and a MOS (insulated gate field-effect transistor). It combines the advantages of both MOSFETs and bipolar transistors. It offers high-frequency characteristics, low switching losses, and high input impedance, making it commonly used in power converters, inverters, motor drives, and other fields.
[0003] IGBT devices require high-frequency control of high current switching, making conventional switches impractical. Instead, a cylinder is required to rapidly switch the current connection block (the existing block consists of a conductive plate and two contacts that mate with the copper contacts) and the copper contacts on the copper busbar. Due to the high operating frequency and high contact force, a special design is required. The existing block is fixedly connected to the top block, creating direct, hard contact without any buffering. Frequent hard collisions between the block and the copper contacts can easily cause deformation and damage, affecting the proper operation of the switch. Utility Model Content

[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Example
[0022] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, a pneumatic switch for IGBT equipment includes a cylinder fixing plate 1, a cylinder support plate 2, a copper contact pad 3, a cylinder 4, a top block 5, a current connection block 6 and a copper contact pad 3. The cylinder fixing plate 1 and the copper contact pad 3 are connected through a symmetrical cylinder support plate 2. The cylinder 4 is mounted on the inner side of the cylinder fixing plate 1, the top block 5 is mounted on the output end of the cylinder 4, and the current connection block 6 is mounted on the bottom of the top block 5; wherein, a lower notch 52 is opened at the bottom end of the top block 5, and the current connection block 6 is located at the lower notch 52; an upper notch 51 and a through slot 54 are opened at the top end of the top block 5 in sequence from top to bottom, and an embedded nut 56 is embedded in the through slot 54; a step bolt 61 passes through the bottom of the current connection block 6, wherein the step bolt 61 passes through the current connection block 6 and the top block 5 The embedded nut 56 is threadedly connected, so that the current connection block 6 can move up and down, wherein the diameter of the step bolt 61 is smaller than the diameter of the hole passing through the current connection block 6, so that the current connection block 6 can move on both sides, and the step bolt 61 plays a limiting role. Under the action of force, the current connection block 6 can move up and down and on both sides in the lower notch 52 of the top block 5, so that the current connection block 6 is buffered when it contacts the copper contact 71 below, effectively avoiding direct hard contact between the current connection block 6 and the copper contact 71, and avoiding deformation and damage of the current connection block 6 and the copper contact 71; in addition, glue is applied to the outside of the embedded nut 56, and the step bolt 61 and the embedded nut 56 are threadedly connected, so that this fixed connection method is stable and reliable, so that the current connection block 6 is stable after installation.
[0023] During specific operation, when power is turned on, the control cylinder 4 extends and presses the top block 5 downward, so that the current connection block 6 contacts the copper contact 71 below, thereby energizing the copper bars 7 on both sides. During the contact process, the current connection block 6 will move up and down and shake on both sides, thereby being buffered; when power is turned off, the control cylinder 4 contracts and lifts the top block 5 upward, so that the current connection block 6 and the copper contact 71 are separated and disconnected, thereby disconnecting the current of the copper bars 7 on both sides.
[0024] The advantage of the present invention is that, based on the existing technology, the current connection block 6 is set to a state where it can move upward and downward and on both sides. When the current connection block 6 contacts the copper contact 71 below, it will be buffered because of the mobility of the current connection block 6, effectively avoiding direct hard contact between the current connection block 6 and the copper contact 71, effectively avoiding deformation and damage of the current connection block 6 and the copper contact 71, and reducing the impact on the normal use of the switch.
[0025] Among them, the current connection block 6 is an integrated type. Compared with the existing technology of a plate and two contacts, the current connection block 6 is a plane in contact with two copper contacts 71. The contact effect is better than the existing technology when multiple planes are in separate contact. There will be no relative sliding and no impact on the normal use of the switch.
[0026] In addition, the current connection block 6 and the copper contact 71 are both made of alloy material with high hardness. When they are frequently contacted or used with great force, the current connection block 6 and the copper contact 71 are not easily deformed or damaged.
[0027] Furthermore, pits 55 are evenly opened inward at the position corresponding to the lower notch 52 of the top block 5, and pins 62 are provided at the corresponding position of the current connection block 6. There is a certain distance between the pin 62 and the pit 55, which limits the range of up and down movement of the current connection block 6. A spring 63 is provided on the periphery of the pin 62 corresponding to the pit 55 and the current connection block 6, so that when the current connection block 6 moves up and down and shakes on both sides, it will be further buffered by the expansion and contraction of the spring 63. In addition, since the shapes of the two copper contacts 71 cannot be exactly the same, there are different thicknesses, depressions, protrusions or inclinations, etc., the current connection block 6 that can shake and is buffered by the spring 63 can be automatically leveled, so that the contact effect between the current connection block 6 and the two copper contacts 71 below is better and more stable.
[0028] Furthermore, mounting grooves 31 are evenly opened on the copper contact pad 3, and the copper busbar 7 is placed in the mounting groove 31. The copper busbar 7 is stuck in the mounting groove 31 to limit the rotation of the copper busbar 7. A fixing rod 72 is passed through one side of the copper busbar 7, and a copper contact 71 is provided at one end of the fixing rod 72, wherein the copper contact 71 is against the surface of the copper busbar 7, and the other end of the fixing rod 72 passes through the copper contact pad 3 and is fixedly connected with a nut. This installation method is convenient for disassembly and assembly, and convenient for replacing the copper busbar 7 and the copper contact 71.
[0029] Furthermore, a screw rod 73 is evenly threaded through the bottom of the copper contact pad 3, and the screw rod 73 is threaded through and connected to the other side of the top of the copper busbar 7. The part of the screw rod 73 extending out of the copper busbar 7 can be used as a wire connection column; in conjunction with the fixing rod 72, the copper busbar 7 is fixed by the fixing rod 72 and the screw rod 73 at the same time, and one is fixed from bottom to top and the other is fixed from top to bottom, so the fixing effect is better; when the switch generates vibration during high-frequency operation, the copper busbar 7 is not easy to loosen.
[0030] Furthermore, a cylinder connecting block 41 is installed at the output end of the cylinder 4, and the cylinder connecting block 41 is embedded in the upper slot 51. Jacks 53 are evenly provided at positions corresponding to the upper slot 51 on both sides of the top block 5, and positioning holes 411 are evenly provided at corresponding positions on both sides of the cylinder connecting block 41. The cylinder connecting block 41 is connected to the top block 5 through a quick-insert connector 42, and the quick-insert connector 42 is inserted into the positioning hole 411 through the jacket 53. In this way, the top block 5 can be installed from the side, which is convenient for disassembly and replacement of the top block 5, and the disassembly and assembly method is relatively simple, thereby improving the disassembly and assembly efficiency.
[0031] Furthermore, the cylinder fixing plate 1, the cylinder support plate 2, the copper contact pad 3 and the top block 5 are all made of high-voltage resistant insulating materials to avoid the influence of current; in addition, these components are not provided with threaded holes, which ensures the connection strength when connected to each other, making the connection state stronger and more reliable.
[0032] Working principle: When using this switch, when the power is on, the control cylinder 4 extends and presses the top block 5 downward, so that the current connection block 6 contacts the copper contact 71 below, thereby energizing the copper bars 7 on both sides. During the contact process, the current connection block 6 will move up and down and shake on both sides, cooperating with the expansion and contraction of the spring 63, so as to be buffered and automatically leveled; when the power is off, the control cylinder 4 contracts and lifts the top block 5 upward, so that the current connection block 6 and the copper contact 71 are separated and disconnected, so that the current of the copper bars 7 on both sides is disconnected.
[0033] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely illustrative of the principles of the present invention.
