DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are intended only to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings only illustrate portions relevant to the present invention, not all of its components.

[0038] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "connected," "connected," and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense.

[0039] In the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may include the first and second features being in direct contact, or may include the first and second features being in contact not directly but through another feature between them. Moreover, a first feature being "above," "above," and "above" a second feature may include the first feature being directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may include the first feature being directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0040] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "right," and other orientations or positional relationships are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings and are intended solely for ease of description and simplified operation. They do not indicate or imply that the devices or components referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used solely for descriptive purposes and have no special meaning.

[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a circuit breaker, which includes a base 100 and a transformer 400. The base 100 is provided with an installation cavity 101 and a wiring cavity 102. One side of the installation cavity 101 is connected to the wiring cavity 102, and the other side of the installation cavity 101 is connected to the interior of the base 100. The transformer 400 is arranged in the installation cavity 101.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a transformer 400 includes a housing 1, within which are disposed multiple insulation chambers 2 and multiple transformer core assemblies 3. Each transformer core assembly 3 is disposed corresponding to a corresponding insulation chamber 2. Each insulation chamber 2 is provided with a thermal insulator 4. The thermal insulator 4 is configured to prevent heat generated during operation of the transformer core assembly 3 from being transferred to the outside through the insulation chamber 2. When the transformer 400 is installed within the mounting chamber 101, the thermal insulator 4 faces the interior of the base 100, while the transformer core assembly 3 faces the wiring chamber 102. The wiring chamber 102 is connected to the external environment. Heat generated during operation by the transformer core assembly 3 is blocked by the thermal insulator 4 and dissipated to the outside of the circuit breaker through the wiring chamber 102. This reduces the amount of heat entering the circuit breaker, improves the heat dissipation rate of the transformer 400, and lowers the temperature inside the circuit breaker. This prevents heat generated during operation of the transformer 400 from affecting the circuit breaker's long-delay operation, thereby improving the operational stability and safety of the entire electrical system.

[0043] A circuit breaker typically includes phases A, B, and C, each with a corresponding wiring cavity 102 to connect three-phase power. Each phase also has a corresponding transformer core assembly 3, so the corresponding housing 1 contains three transformer core assemblies 3 and three insulation cavities 2. Multiple barriers 104 are located within the base 100 on the other side of the mounting cavity 101. These barriers 104 correspond to adjacent transformer core assemblies 3, preventing short circuits between the two phases and increasing the creepage distance between them.

[0044] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the inner bottom of the housing 1 is provided with multiple partitions 11 spaced apart along the length of the housing 1. A thermal insulation cavity 2 is formed between adjacent partitions 11 or between a partition 11 and the sidewall of the housing 1. This structure is simple and easy to manufacture. When the transformer 400 is placed within the base 100, the bottom of the housing 1 faces the inside of the base 100, and the opening of the housing 1 faces the wiring cavity 102. Optionally, the partitions 11 are integrally formed with the housing 1.

[0045] A first electronic component board 5 is provided on the outside of the housing 1 and is fixed on the housing 1 .

[0046] Alternatively, as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, a receiving groove 14 is provided on one side outside the housing 1. A positioning post 141 and a first mounting hole 142 are provided at the bottom of the receiving groove 14. A positioning hole 51 and a second mounting hole 52 are provided on the first electronic component board 5. The positioning post 141 is inserted into the positioning hole 51 to position the first electronic component board 5 so that the first mounting hole 142 and the second mounting hole 52 are correspondingly arranged. Then, a connector is used to penetrate the second mounting hole 52 and connect it to the first mounting hole 142, thereby achieving a fixed connection of the first electronic component board 5. Typically, the first electronic component board 5 is a rectangular plate-shaped structure. The positioning holes 51 are provided at two diagonally opposite corners of the first electronic component board 5, and the second mounting holes 52 are provided at the other two corners. When the connector connects the first electronic component board 5 and the housing 1, the first electronic component board 5 is subjected to uniform force and has good connection stability.

[0047] Each of the partitions 11 is provided with a plurality of mounting slots 12, which extend along the width direction of the housing 1. Each mounting slot 12 is provided with a plurality of first connectors 6, which are spaced apart. The mounting slots 12 are respectively provided at both ends of the first connector 6. One end of the first connector 6 is connected to the first electronic component board 5, and the other end of the first connector 6 is used to connect to the second electronic component board of the circuit breaker. The first connector 6 is provided to connect the first electronic component board 5 on the mutual inductor 400 and the second electronic component board in the circuit breaker, replacing the wiring harness connection. This solves the problems in the prior art, such as the difficulty in perforating the wiring harness, the time-consuming wiring, the easy pressure on the wiring harness causing breakage or short-circuit burning, and the disadvantages of mass production. The mounting slots 12 also serve to isolate the first connector 6 and prevent short circuits. The first connector 6 is a pin, which realizes a hard connection between the first electronic component board 5 and the second component board, making it less prone to damage.

[0048] Optionally, three insulation cavities 2 are provided in the housing 1, that is, at least two partitions 11 need to be provided in the housing 1. The mutual inductor 400 needs to have two functions of temperature measurement and power supply, and needs to be provided with two groups of first connectors 6 accordingly, one group of first connectors 6 is used for power supply, and the other group of first connectors 6 is used for transmitting temperature measurement signals. A first temperature measurement connector 53 and a first power supply connector 54 are provided on the first electronic component board 5. The first temperature measurement connector 53 is plugged into a group of first connectors 6, and the number of the first connectors 6 in this group matches the number of the plug-in interfaces of the first temperature measurement connector 53. The first power supply connector 54 is plugged into another group of first connectors 6, and the number of the first connectors 6 in this group matches the number of the plug-in interfaces of the first power supply connector 54.

[0049] A groove 143 is recessed at the bottom of the accommodating groove 14, and a groove 143 is correspondingly provided for each group of first connectors 6. The first connector 6 passes through the mounting groove 12 and is placed in the groove 143. The first temperature measuring connector 53 or the first power connector 54 is plugged into the groove 143 and is plugged into the first connector 6 at the same time. The setting of the groove 143 serves to fix the first temperature measuring connector 53 or the first power connector 54, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the first temperature measuring connector 53 or the first power connector 54 and the first connector 6.

[0050] Alternatively, as Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, the second electronic component board 200 of the circuit breaker is arranged on the outside of the base 100, and a connector 202 is provided on the second electronic component board 200. Optionally, corresponding to the first electronic component board 5, the connector 202 on the second electronic component board 200 includes a second power connector 2021 and a second temperature measurement connector 2022. The bottom of the installation cavity 101 is provided with a through hole 103, and the through hole 103 is corresponding to the other end of the first plug-in connector 6. The connector 202 passes through the through hole 103 and is plugged into the other end of the first plug-in connector 6, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the second electronic component board 200 and the first electronic component board 5. During the connection process, the mutual inductor 400 is placed in the installation cavity 101 of the base 100. It is only necessary to directly plug in the second electronic component board 200 without arranging the wiring harness, which improves the convenience of assembly and is suitable for mass production.

[0051] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, partitions 17 are provided on opposite sides of the other end of each set of first connectors 6. These partitions 17 provide insulation, increasing the creepage distance between the two sets of first connectors 6 and preventing short circuits. When the transformer 400 is installed in the mounting cavity 101 of the base 100, the partitions 17 are positioned within the through-holes 103. The partitions 17 and the walls of the through-holes 103 form a slot for the connector 202 to plug into, improving the stability of the connection between the connector 202 and the first connectors 6.

[0052] like Figure 7 、 Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, the outer cover of the second electronic component board 200 is provided with a bottom plate 300, which is connected to the base 100 and serves to fix and protect the second electronic component board 200. A stopper 301 is provided on the side of the bottom plate 300 facing the second electronic component board 200. The stopper 301 presses against the second electronic component board 200 and is located near the connector 202. The stopper 301 presses against the second electronic component board 200 to prevent the side of the second electronic component board 200 connected to the first connector 6 from tilting, which would cause poor contact between the connector 202 and the first connector 6. Optionally, the stopper 301 is a protrusion integrally formed with the bottom plate 300, which has a simple structure and is easy to process.

[0053] See also Figure 9 As shown, a stepped groove 105 is provided on the outside of the base 100, and the stepped groove 105 includes a first stepped groove 1051 and a second stepped groove 1052. The area of ​​the second stepped groove 1052 is larger than that of the first stepped groove 1051. The first stepped groove 1051 is used to accommodate the second electronic component board 200, and the second stepped groove 1052 is used to accommodate the bottom plate 300, so that the bottom plate 300 is flush with the surface of the base 100, does not affect the installation of other components, and can place the second electronic component board 200 in a closed space to protect the second electronic component board 200 from damage.

[0054] See also Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 10 As shown, the transformer core assembly 3 is electrically connected to the first electronic component board 5. In some embodiments, the housing 1 is provided with a plurality of insertion slots 13, each of which houses a second connector 7. One end of the second connector 7 is connected to the corresponding transformer core assembly 3, and the other end of the second connector 7 passes through the insertion slot 13 and plugs into the first electronic component board 5. This replaces the wiring harness connection in the prior art and solves the problems of the prior art, such as the difficulty of wiring harness perforation, the time-consuming wiring, the easy pressure on the harness causing breakage or short-circuit burning, and the disadvantage of mass production. The insertion slots 13 also serve to isolate the second connector 7, preventing short circuits. The second connector 7 is a pin, which achieves a hard connection between the first electronic component board 5 and the transformer core assembly 3 and is not easily damaged.

[0055] Optionally, a plug-in slot 13 is provided on the side wall of the housing 1 near the first electronic component board 5. Each plug-in slot 13 is provided with a second plug-in connector 7. Every two plug-in slots 13 form a group. One end of the second plug-in connector 7 is placed in the plug-in slot 13 for electrical connection with the transformer core assembly 3. The other end of the second plug-in connector 7 is bent 90°. A positioning slot 15 is provided on the end surface of the housing 1. The other end of the second plug-in connector 7 is placed in the positioning slot 15, and the end passes through the positioning slot 15 to be electrically connected to the first electronic component board 5. Optionally, the second plug-in connector 7 is connected to the transformer core assembly 3 via a wire, which can be placed in the plug-in slot 13.

[0056] The transformer core assembly 3 includes a first transformer core 31 and a second transformer core 32 , the specific structure of which is known in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0057] The transformer core assembly 3 is disposed within the housing 1. To position the transformer core assembly 3, a support column 21 is provided within each insulating cavity 2. The support column 21 extends along the height of the housing 1 to the opening of the housing 1. Multiple support plates 22 are spaced circumferentially between the support columns 21 and the walls of the insulating cavity 2. The transformer core assembly 3 is sleeved on the support columns 21 and rests on the support plates 22. A thermal insulator 4 is provided between adjacent support plates 22. The support plates 22 support the transformer core assembly 3, while the support columns 21 limit the position of the transformer core assembly 3.

[0058] The support column 21 is provided with a through hole 211 along its axial direction, and the through hole 211 passes through the bottom of the insulation cavity 2. When the mutual inductor 400 is installed in the base 100, the conductive parts of the circuit breaker can pass through the through hole 211 to connect with other components in the base 100.

[0059] Optionally, the partition 11 , the support column 21 and the support plate 22 are an integrally formed structure with the housing 1 .

The transformer core assembly 3 is sleeved on the support column 21 and abuts against the support plate 22. Insulating grease 8 is filled into the housing 1. After the insulating grease 8 solidifies, the transformer core assembly 3 is fixed to the housing 1. The insulating grease 8 in the insulation cavity 2 solidifies to form the insulation member 4. The insulating grease 8 in the mounting groove 12 solidifies to fix the first connector 6. The insulating grease 8 in the insertion groove 13 solidifies to fix the second connector 7. The positioning groove 15 is also filled with insulating grease 8. The through hole 211 of the support column 21 is not filled with insulating grease 8. The first electronic component board 5 is then fixed in the receiving groove 14, and the first connector 6 is plugged into the first electronic component board 5.

[0061] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, after the transformer 400 is assembled, it is installed in the base 100 of the circuit breaker. The size of the installation cavity 101 on the base 100 matches the size of the cover 1 of the transformer 400 to prevent the transformer 400 from shaking in the base 100. The transformer 400 is inserted into the installation cavity 101 along the width direction of the cover 1. To facilitate the installation of the transformer 400, the two opposite side walls of the cover 1 are provided with guide slopes 16.
