Description

Technical Field

[0002] A load switch is a type of electrical switch between a circuit breaker and an isolating switch. It features a simple arc-extinguishing mechanism and can interrupt rated load current and a certain level of overload current, but cannot interrupt short-circuit current. It is a widely used transmission and distribution device in modern power systems. Oil-immersed high-voltage load switches are installed within combined transformers. As a control component, they primarily control the connection and disconnection of high-voltage power.

[0003] See also Figures 1 to 3 In the existing industry, an oil-immersed high-voltage load switch generally includes a base 1, a switch shaft 2 disposed inside the base 1, and an operating mechanism 3 in transmission connection with the switch shaft 2; the switch shaft 2 is provided with a moving contact assembly 4, and correspondingly, the base 1 is provided with a static contact 5 for use with the moving contact assembly 4; the moving contact assembly 4 is T-shaped. During use, the operating mechanism 3 drives the switch shaft 2 to rotate, and in turn drives the moving contact assembly 4 to rotate, so that the moving contact assembly 4 is connected or disconnected with the static contact 5. When assembling an oil-immersed high-voltage load switch of this structure, the moving contact assembly needs to be disposed inside the switch shaft, and holes need to be drilled in the switch shaft so that the three ends of the moving contact assembly extend from the corresponding holes. In this case, the installation precision requirements are high, resulting in low production efficiency of the product. In addition, the overall structure of the oil-immersed high-voltage load switch of this structure is relatively complex and heavy, resulting in poor stability during operation and prone to failure.

Furthermore, the contact plate has a relatively smooth surface after assembly.

[0009] Furthermore, an arc-shaped protrusion is provided on the edges of the opposing surfaces of the upper and lower movable contact pieces, thereby enabling close contact between the stationary contact and the movable contact piece, thereby ensuring that good contact is maintained between the stationary contact and the movable contact assembly during the rotation of the switch shaft.

[0010] As an optimization, in the aforementioned four-position oil-immersed high-voltage load switch, the operating mechanism includes a rotary handle and a coil spring structure; the coil spring structure comprises an upper transmission body, a lower transmission body, and a coil spring disposed between the upper and lower transmission bodies; the upper transmission body is connected to the rotary handle, and the lower transmission body is connected to the switch shaft.

[0011] Furthermore, a sleeve is provided at the connection between the lower transmission body and the switch shaft, and the sleeve is fixed to the lower transmission body and the switch shaft respectively via pins; the handle shaft of the rotary handle is connected to the upper transmission body via threads. This connection structure is simple, occupies little space, and is easy to assemble and disassemble, facilitating subsequent maintenance and replacement.

This results in a compact overall structure and easy assembly.

[0013] Furthermore, a mounting plate is provided above the cover plate; the coil spring structure is located between the cover plate and the mounting plate. In this case, the load switch can be directly mounted on the transformer box wall via the mounting plate, which is simple to operate and easy to implement.

[0014] As an optimization, in the aforementioned four-position oil-immersed load switch, the switch shaft can be made of epoxy resin, and the connecting block can be made of engineering plastic. Epoxy resin, as an excellent insulating material, offers advantages such as high strength, good wear resistance, and simple processing, thereby ensuring the service life of the switch shaft. Engineering plastics offer high strength and good pressure resistance, making them easy to mass-produce and ensuring sufficient connection strength between the connecting block and the switch shaft.
