Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of contactors, in particular to a moving contact mechanism and a dual power supply conversion switch. Background Art
[0002] In existing dual-power switches, the moving contact assembly consists of a first moving contact and a second moving contact at each end. When the contact holder of the dual-power switch rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, driven by a shaft, it connects with the first stationary contact to conduct the first power source, or with the second stationary contact to conduct the second power source, respectively, to switch between the standby power sources. Existing dual-power switches have two independent springs connected together, one for each side, to provide the final pressure when the moving and static contacts make contact. To facilitate the assembly of the four independent springs, a hooking mechanism is required within the inner wall of the contact support, making the production process of the contact support overly complex. Assembly also requires coordination of multiple parts, resulting in low assembly efficiency and a unique shape, increased mold costs, and increased instability.
[0003] Therefore, the present invention needs to provide a contact mounting base that is integrally formed, does not require assembly, has good parts consistency, and has better positioning and support effects on the moving contact assembly, thereby avoiding the moving contact being unable to make parallel contact with the static contact due to the assembly of parts, resulting in a moving contact mechanism with reduced electrical performance.

[0037] In addition, numerous specific details are provided in the detailed description below to better illustrate the present application. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present application can be practiced without certain specific details. In some instances, methods, means, components, and circuits well known to those skilled in the art are not described in detail in order to highlight the main purpose of the present application.
[0038] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, a moving contact mechanism includes a contact base lower shell 1, wherein the interior of the contact base lower shell 1 has a cavity and the contact base lower shell is formed in one piece.
[0039] The moving contact assembly 3 and the elastic assembly are installed in the lower part of the contact base lower shell. The elastic assembly includes a first elastic member 6 and a second elastic member 6′. The first elastic member 6 and the second elastic member 6′ are respectively located on both sides of the moving contact assembly, and one end of the first elastic member 6 and the second elastic member 6′ is connected to the moving contact assembly 3, and the other end of the first elastic member 6 and the second elastic member 6′ is connected to the contact base lower shell 1.
[0040] Through the above method, it can be known that, since the contact base lower shell 1 of the utility model is made in an integral molding manner, no assembly is required, the parts have good consistency, and the positioning and support effects on the moving contact assembly are better, avoiding the moving contact from being unable to contact parallel to the static contact due to the assembly of parts. In addition, the moving contact assembly is directly installed on the characteristic boss of the contact base lower shell through an elastic member, which is easy to assemble and has a simple structure. At the same time, it involves fewer parts, which reduces the complexity of assembly; through the middle groove of the contact and the support contact with the contact base lower shell and both sides, there is more free limitation, so that when closing, the support point of the contact base on the other side is used as the fulcrum, and radial sliding will occur after the moving and static contacts come into contact. This action reduces the bounce of the contact, makes its closing action more stable and reliable, and reduces the risk of arcing contact ablation.
[0041] In addition, it is worth noting that the contact base lower shell includes a movable contact base lower shell body, and the lower end of the contact base lower shell body is also provided with a groove, and the groove is concave toward the center of the contact base lower shell, and the movable contact assembly is installed in the groove. The contact base lower shell is rotated counterclockwise by the square shaft, and the square shaft moves counterclockwise at the same time. After the moving and static contacts come into contact, the support boss contact surface 5-1' of the first contact air blowing member starts to swing with the contact base lower shell support boss 1-1 as the fulcrum, and the concave surface 3-1 of the connecting part of the movable contact assembly is in contact with the contact. The contact limiting features 1-3 of the lower shell 1 of the seat are coordinated (through the middle groove of the contact and the contact seat lower shell and the support contacts on both sides, multiple free limits are achieved, so that the support point of the contact seat on the other side is used as the fulcrum when closing, and radial sliding will occur after the moving and static contacts come into contact. This action reduces the bounce of the contact, makes its closing action more stable and reliable, and reduces the risk of arcing contact erosion). As the square shaft angle is rotated into place and the closing is completed, the contact surface 5-1 of the second contact air blow piece boss and the support boss 1-2 of the lower shell 1 of the contact seat are separated to the maximum position. At this time, the elastic part is stretched to the maximum state to provide final pressure to the contact.
[0042] In order to fix the first elastic member and the second elastic member on the contact base lower shell, specifically, in this embodiment, the upper part of the contact base lower shell is also provided with a fixed shaft, and the fixed shaft is connected to the upper part of the contact base lower shell through an integral molding manner, and the two ends of the fixed shaft are respectively fixed on the inner surfaces of both sides of the contact base lower shell, and the fixed shaft is used to fix the first elastic member and the second elastic member. A limiting ring is also provided on the inner surface of the contact base lower shell, and the limiting ring is used to fix the moving contact assembly.
[0043] Specifically, the first elastic member 6 and the second elastic member 6' each include a first spring body and a second spring body, the lower ends of the first spring body and the second spring are connected to each other to form connecting portions 6-2 and 6-2', the upper ends of the first spring body and the second spring body are further provided with an extension rod, the upper ends of the extension rod are further provided with a hook, the hook is used to fix the shaft connection, and the first elastic member and the second elastic member provide final pressure to the moving contact assembly when the switch is opened or closed;
[0044] The lower ends of the first spring body and the second spring body are fixed to the moving contacts 3-2 and 3-3 through the connecting parts 6-2 and 6-2'; the hook parts 6-1 and 6-1' are fixed to the elastic part connecting bosses 1-4 and 1-5 of the lower shell 1 of the contact seat; after the elastic part is fixed, the contact air blowing parts 5 and 5' support boss contact surfaces 5-1 and 5-1' are in contact with the support bosses 1-1 and 1-2 of the lower shell 1 of the contact seat.
[0045] In addition, in this embodiment, the moving contact assembly 3 includes a connecting portion, and a first straight arm and a second straight arm are provided at both ends of the connecting portion. The first straight arm and the connecting portion, and the connecting portion and the second straight arm are formed into one piece with each other to avoid deformation or breakage of the moving contact assembly due to force, thereby extending the service life. In addition, moving silver points 4 and 4' are provided on the first straight arm and the second straight arm, and the moving silver points 4 and 4' are fixed to the upper surfaces of the first straight arm and the second straight arm by welding.
[0046] In addition, it should be noted that the connecting portion is a U-shaped structure, and an extension piece is provided at the lower end of the connecting portion. The extension piece is provided with a recess, and the recess is used for welding the flexible connection. The provision of the recess facilitates the welding of the flexible connection.
[0047] In order to prevent the moving contact assembly from swinging left and right when the mechanism is opened and closed, limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the lower shell of the contact seat. Therefore, the moving contact assembly is limited by the provided limiting grooves.
[0048] In addition, it is worth mentioning that it also includes a first contact air blowing member 5 and a second contact air blowing member 5′. The first contact air blowing member 5 and the second contact air blowing member 5′ are respectively located on the first straight arm and the second straight arm on the side close to the moving silver point 4, 4′. The first contact air blowing member 5 and the second contact air blowing member 5′ will generate insulating gas under the action of the surrounding high temperature and high pressure environment, blowing the arc into the arc extinguishing cavity, and the arc extinguishing grid will cut the arc entering the arc extinguishing cavity, thereby reducing the voltage and extinguishing the arc.
[0049] In order to prevent the arc from flying out from the upper end of the contact base lower shell 1, an upper shell 2 is further provided on the upper part of the contact base lower shell 1. The upper shell 2 is fixed to the contact base lower shell 1 by fixing bolts. In this embodiment, the upper shell 2 is set to an arc shape. During installation, it is buckled on the upper end of the contact base lower shell 1 and firmly fixed with bolts.
[0050] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
