Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of circuit breakers, in particular to an electronic metering circuit breaker with a pressure relief function. Background Art
[0002] An electronic metering circuit breaker is a device that integrates the functions of an electronic leakage circuit breaker and an intelligent circuit breaker. It uses advanced electronic technology and intelligent control to achieve accurate circuit metering, leakage protection, overload and short-circuit protection.
[0003] Electronic metering circuit breakers primarily consist of a zero-sequence current transformer, an electronically controlled residual current release, and a circuit breaker with overload and short-circuit protection. When leakage or electric shock occurs in the protected circuit, the secondary winding of the zero-sequence current transformer outputs a signal as soon as the leakage current reaches the designed operating current value. This triggers the residual current release to operate the circuit breaker, thereby cutting off the power supply and providing protection against leakage and electric shock. Furthermore, these devices possess the characteristics of intelligent circuit breakers, such as fast response and precise control, effectively protecting circuits and equipment from overload and short-circuit damage.
[0004] Existing electronic metering circuit breakers include an arc extinguishing chamber equipped with multiple arc extinguishing grids. When the moving and stationary contacts disconnect, an arc is generated. This is due to the voltage difference and current between the contacts, which causes the air to be broken down by the high electric field, forming a conductive path. During this process, the contacts vibrate and weld, the air between the moving and stationary contacts is broken down by the high electric field, and the electrode material softens, melts, and evaporates. As the arcing progresses and spreads, the high-temperature arc gradually melts and even vaporizes the contact metal. This process is accompanied by the conversion and release of energy, forming high-pressure gas. Currently, the arc extinguishing chamber lacks effective guidance for this high-pressure gas, causing it to carry high-temperature, scorching particles and spray onto other components within the arc extinguishing chamber, reducing the service life of these components. Therefore, the applicant has developed a beneficial design and found a solution to this problem. The technical solution described below was developed in this context. Summary of the Invention

Pressure relief plates 5 are provided at the entrance of the arc extinguishing chamber 3 in sequence. Pressure relief cavities 51 are provided on both sides of the pressure relief plate 5. Inclined guide portions 52 are provided on both sides of the middle of the pressure relief cavity 51. Second pressure relief holes 53 are provided on both sides of the pressure relief cavity 51. Several interlaced blocking portions 54 are provided between the second pressure relief holes 53 and the guide portions 52. The arc extinguishing chamber 3 is provided with a plurality of equally spaced arc extinguishing grids 31 from top to bottom. A first arc baffle 6 and a second arc baffle 7 are provided above the arc extinguishing grid 31 in sequence. The first arc baffle 6 is provided with an inclined guide portion. 61, used for guiding high-pressure gas to the first pressure relief hole 21, the drainage portion 61 is arranged above the second arc baffle 7, when the moving contact is disconnected, high-pressure gas is generated at the moment, and the pressure relief chamber 51 will be directly subjected to the impact of the high-pressure gas, thereby slowing down the flow rate of the high-pressure gas in the pressure relief chamber 51, and the slowed high-pressure gas is transported to the blocking portion 54 through the guide portion 52. The travel path of the high-pressure gas is bent by the multiple blocking portions 54, which not only further reduces the flow rate of the high-pressure gas, but also extends the travel distance of the high-pressure gas. Finally, it is discharged through the second pressure relief hole 53, and the drainage portion 61 guides the high-pressure gas to the first pressure relief hole 21 in an orderly manner, cooperating with the second pressure relief hole 53 to accelerate the discharge speed of the high-pressure gas in the arc extinguishing chamber 3;
[0026] It is worth mentioning that the first arc baffle plate 6 and the second arc baffle plate 7 are provided with a plurality of third pressure relief holes 8, which are arranged in a staggered manner. The staggered third pressure relief holes 8 extend the travel path of the high-pressure gas and slow down the flow rate of the high-pressure gas flowing into the drainage portion 61. In addition, the first arc baffle plate 6 and the second arc baffle plate 7 also play a role in quickly extinguishing the arc that has not been extinguished by the arc quenching grid 31, thereby preventing the arc from flying out of the arc quenching chamber 3.
[0027] It is worth mentioning that the second arc-blocking plate 7 is provided with a curved arc-blocking portion 71 and is arranged at the entrance of the first pressure relief hole 21.

The arc-blocking portion 71 prevents arcing from flying out of the arc-extinguishing chamber 3, and high-pressure gas can also be discharged to the first pressure relief hole 21 through the fourth pressure relief hole 72.
[0028] It is worth mentioning that an arc-blocking plate 4 is provided at the entrance of the arc-extinguishing chamber 3. The arc-blocking plate 4 has a plurality of through holes 41 and is arranged at the entrance of the pressure relief chamber 51. The arc-blocking plate 4 directly withstands arcing and high-temperature hot particles. High-pressure gas enters the pressure relief chamber 51 through the through holes 41.
[0029] It is worth mentioning that protrusions 56 are provided on both sides of the pressure relief plate 5, the pressure relief chamber 51 is arranged in the protrusion 56, and inclined reinforcement parts 55 are provided on both sides of the pressure relief chamber 51. Since the pressure relief chamber 51 directly bears the impact of high-pressure gas, the structural strength of the protrusion 56 and the pressure relief plate 5 is increased by the reinforcement part 55.
[0030] The above design scheme can enable the product to achieve the advantages of having pressure relief function and guiding effect.
