[0070] The following embodiments are combined with the accompanying drawings to further illustrate the specific implementation of the switch electrical apparatus of the present invention. The switch electrical apparatus of the present invention is not limited to the description of the following embodiments.
[0071] like Figure 1-14 FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a switch device of the present invention. The switch device of this embodiment is specifically a circuit breaker.
[0072] like Figure 5-7As shown, the switch apparatus of this embodiment includes an operating mechanism 1234 and at least one contact system. The contact system includes a movable contact assembly 910 and a stationary contact 920 that work together. The operating mechanism 1234 is transmission-connected to the movable contact assembly 910 to drive the movable contact assembly 910 to rotate and close and open with the stationary contact 920. Furthermore, the movable contact assembly 910 includes a supporting shaft 911 and a movable contact 912 disposed on the supporting shaft 911. Furthermore, when the switch apparatus of this embodiment is a multi-phase switch apparatus, that is, when the number of contact systems is ≥ 2, the movable contact assembly 910 of each contact system is driven by the operating mechanism 1234 to synchronously close and open with the corresponding stationary contact 920. The supporting shaft 911 of each movable contact assembly 910 is of either an integral or split structure. In the switch apparatus of this embodiment, each supporting shaft 911 is preferably of an integral structure.
[0073] Furthermore, the switching device of this embodiment further includes a short-circuit protection mechanism (not shown) and an overload protection mechanism (not shown). The short-circuit protection mechanism or the overload protection mechanism is used to drive the operating mechanism 1234 to trip when a short-circuit fault or an overload fault occurs in the circuit of the switching device of this embodiment. The operating mechanism 1234 drives the movable contact assembly 910 to rotate and disconnect from the static contact 920. Furthermore, the short-circuit protection mechanism and the overload protection mechanism are integrated or split structures. Both the short-circuit protection mechanism and the overload protection mechanism can be implemented using existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.
[0074] Furthermore, the switch electrical appliance of this embodiment has four working states, namely, the electrical appliance closing state, the electrical appliance opening state, the electrical appliance tripping state and the electrical appliance re-tripping state. The electrical appliance closing state, the electrical appliance opening state and the electrical appliance tripping state are three stable states, and the electrical appliance re-tripping state is a transitional state. The operating mechanism 1234 also has four working states, namely, the mechanism closing state, the mechanism opening state, the mechanism tripping state and the mechanism re-tripping state, that is, the operating mechanism 1234 is in the corresponding state when the switch electrical appliance is in the electrical appliance closing state, the electrical appliance opening state, the electrical appliance tripping state and the electrical appliance re-tripping state respectively, and the corresponding mechanism re-tripping state is also a transitional state; when the switch electrical appliance is in the electrical appliance closing state, the operating mechanism 1234 performs the opening operation to switch the switch electrical appliance to the electrical appliance opening state, and the operating mechanism 1234 performs the opening operation to switch the switch electrical appliance to the electrical appliance opening state. Mechanism 1234 also switches to the mechanism-off state; when the switch appliance is in the appliance-off state, the operating mechanism 1234 performs a closing operation to switch the switch appliance to the appliance-on state, and the operating mechanism 1234 also switches to the mechanism-on state; when the switch appliance is in the appliance-on state, after the operating mechanism 1234 trips, the switch appliance switches to the appliance-tripped state, and the operating mechanism 1234 also switches to the mechanism-tripped state; when the switch appliance is in the appliance-tripped state, an external operating force (such as the manual operating force of the operator) drives the operating mechanism 1234 to perform a re-tripping operation, the switch appliance switches to the appliance-re-tripping state, and the operating mechanism 1234 also switches to the mechanism-re-tripping state. After the external operating force is removed, the switch appliance automatically switches to the appliance-off state and the operating mechanism 1234 automatically switches to the mechanism-off state.
[0075] Furthermore, the switching device of this embodiment also includes a housing structure for accommodating the operating mechanism 1234 and the contact system.
[0076] The present utility model further discloses an operating system, which includes the operating mechanism 1234 and the moving contact assembly 910 .
[0077] like Figure 1-14 FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the operating mechanism 1234 .
[0078] like Figure 1 As shown, the operating mechanism 1234 of this embodiment has its length direction, width direction and height direction respectively as direction d3, direction d5 and direction d4, and the directions d3, d5 and d4 are perpendicular to each other.
[0079] like Figure 1 、 3The operating mechanism 1234 of the embodiment shown in FIG. 7 comprises a bracket 100, a lock catch 500 and a rocker member 700 rotatably arranged on the bracket 100 respectively, a jumper catch 600 rotatably arranged on the bracket 100 at one end and matched with the lock catch 500 at the other end, an upper connecting rod 810 rotatably connected with the jumper catch 600 at one end and provided with a second shaft 820 at the other end, a main spring 850 connected to the rocker member 700 at one end and to the second shaft 820 at the other end, and a trip drive structure rotatably arranged. The second shaft 820 is also used to be rotatably connected with a movable contact assembly 910 of the switch electric appliance to drive the movable contact assembly 910 to rotate to close and open with a stationary contact 920. The main spring 850 provides energy for the opening and closing operations and the trip operation of the operating mechanism 1234. The main spring 850 is energized before being de-energized when the operating mechanism 1234 performs the closing operation and the opening operation. The main spring 850 is de-energized to drive the operating mechanism 1234 to switch to the trip state when the operating mechanism 1234 trips in the closing state. In the normal state of the operating mechanism 1234 (i.e. the normal state of the switch electric appliance of the embodiment), i.e. in the mechanism closing state, the mechanism opening state, the normal closing operation process or the normal opening operation (non-trip opening process) of the operating mechanism 1234, the jumper catch 600 and the lock catch 500 remain latched and matched, and the lock catch 500 and the trip drive structure remain between the first limiting match. In the mechanism closing state of the operating mechanism 1234, the trip drive structure is driven to rotate by an external force (e.g. the driving force of the short-circuit protection mechanism, the driving force of the overload protection mechanism or the driving force of the tripper), so that the trip drive structure and the lock catch 500 are out of the first limiting match. Then, the jumper catch 600 is rotated under the action of the main spring 850, and the jumper catch 600 drives the lock catch 500 to rotate, so that the jumper catch 600 and the lock catch 500 are out of the latching match, and the lock catch 500 and the trip drive structure establish the second limiting match. In the mechanism trip state of the operating mechanism 1234, when performing the re-latching operation, the operating external force drives the rocker member 700 to rotate, the jumper catch 600 is reset under the drive of the rocker member 700, and the trip drive structure and the lock catch 500 are reset respectively, so that the trip drive structure and the lock catch 500 are out of the second limiting match and establish the first limiting match, and the jumper catch 600 and the lock catch 500 restore and maintain the latching match. The operating mechanism 1234 switches to the mechanism re-latching state. After the operating external force is removed, the operating mechanism 1234 automatically switches to the mechanism opening state.
[0080] Specifically, the trip transmission structure is driven by an external force to rotate in direction d2, releasing the first position-limiting engagement with the latch 500. The tripping member 600, under the action of the main spring 850, rotates in direction d2, driving the latch 500 to rotate in direction d2, releasing the tripping member 610 from the latch 510. When the operating mechanism 1234 is reset from the tripped state, the tripping member 610, the latch 500, and the trip transmission structure each rotate in direction d1 to reset. Directions d1 and d2 are opposite to each other. The rotational axes of the drawbar 200, the latch 500, the tripping member 600, and the movable contact assembly 910, as well as the axis of the second shaft 820, are all parallel to direction d5. The movable contact assembly 910 closes with the corresponding stationary contact 920 by rotating in direction d2, and disconnects from the corresponding stationary contact 920 by rotating in direction d1.
[0081] Further, such as Figure 5-7 In the directions shown, direction d1 is clockwise and direction d2 is counterclockwise.
[0082] Furthermore, the operating mechanism 1234 of this embodiment also includes a reset structure 400, which acts on the locking member 500 and the trip transmission structure respectively. When the operating mechanism 1234 switches from the closed state to the tripped state, the reset structure 400 stores energy. When the operating mechanism 1234 is closed again from the tripped state, the reset structure 400 releases energy to reset the locking member 500 and the trip transmission structure respectively. Furthermore, the reset structure 400 acts on the locking member 500 and the trip transmission structure respectively, causing them to rotate in the same direction.
[0083] Furthermore, the upper connecting rod 810 is rotationally connected to the jumper 600 through the first shaft 840; the operating mechanism 1234 of this embodiment also includes a lower connecting rod 860, one end of the lower connecting rod 860 is rotationally connected to the upper connecting rod 810 through the second shaft 820, and the other end of the lower connecting rod 860 is transmission-connected to the moving contact assembly 910 - specifically, this end of the lower connecting rod 860 is transmission-connected to the supporting shaft 911 of the moving contact assembly 910 through the connecting shaft to drive the moving contact assembly 910 to rotate back and forth and close and disconnect with the static contact 920.
[0084] like Figure 1 、 3 As shown in Figures 9 and 13, the locking member 500 is respectively engaged with the mechanism 100 at both ends of its rotation stroke to limit the rotation angle of the locking member 500.
[0085] Specifically, the lock piece 500 comprises at least one lock piece stroke limiting part 530; at least one group of the support side plates 110 of the support 100 is provided with a stroke limiting hole 114; the lock piece stroke limiting part 530 is movably inserted into the stroke limiting hole 114, and at both ends of the rotating stroke of the lock piece 500, the lock piece stroke limiting part 530 is respectively limited by the sidewalls of the two ends of the stroke limiting hole 114.

[0086] As shown in Figure 1 , 3 , the support 100 comprises two groups of support side plates 110 arranged in opposite spaces, and a containing space is formed between the two groups of support side plates 110; the lock piece 500, the jump piece 600, the upper connecting rod 810, the second shaft 820, the first shaft 840, the main spring 850, and the lower connecting rod 860 are all arranged in the containing space, that is, between the two groups of support side plates 110.
[0087] Specifically, the lock piece 500 is arranged on the two groups of support side plates 110 by rotating the lock piece rotating shaft 550—specifically, the two ends of the lock piece rotating shaft 500 are arranged on the two groups of support side plates 110, respectively; the jump piece 600 is arranged on the two groups of support side plates 110 by rotating the jump piece rotating shaft 830—specifically, the two ends of the jump piece rotating shaft 830 are arranged on the two groups of support side plates 110, respectively; and the rocker arm 720 of the rocker arm component 700 is arranged on the two groups of support side plates 110. Further, the two groups of support side plates 110 are fixedly connected by a connecting shaft.
[0088] In the operating mechanism 1234 of the embodiment, the support 100 is an independently arranged structure—especially, the support 100 is independent of the shell structure of the switch apparatus. However, it should be noted that the support 100 can also be realized by the shell structure of the switch apparatus, which will not be described in detail here. In addition, in the operating mechanism 1234 of the embodiment, the support side plate 110 is a one-piece structure; however, the support side plate 110 can also be a structure formed by splicing multiple components.
[0089] As shown in Figure 1 , 3 -7, the rocker arm component 700 comprises a rocker arm 720 arranged on the support 100 and a handle 710 arranged on the rocker arm 720, and an external operating force drives the rocker arm 720 to rotate through the handle 710, thereby driving the operating mechanism 1234 to switch between the mechanism closing state and the mechanism opening state and between the mechanism tripping state and the mechanism reclosing state.

[0125] The working process of the operating mechanism 1234 of the present embodiment will be described below:
[0126] As shown in Figure 4-6 , in the mechanism open state and the mechanism closed state, the cooperating member 300 is located on one side of the lock member mating portion 540 along the direction d3, and the cooperating member 300 and the lock member mating portion 540 keep the first limiting cooperation; the operating mechanism 1234 of the present embodiment switches between the mechanism open state and the mechanism closed state through normal closing operation and opening operation, and the cooperating member 300 and the lock member mating portion 540 keep the first limiting cooperation. In combination with Figure 5 and 7As shown, in the closing state of the switch device, when a short circuit or overload fault occurs in the circuit in which the switch device is located, the traction rod 200 is driven by the tripping external force to rotate in the direction d2 (counterclockwise) to disengage the cooperating member 300 from the first limiting cooperation of the locking member cooperation part 540, the main spring 850 drives the jump buckle member 600 to rotate in the direction d2 (counterclockwise), and the jump buckle member 600 simultaneously drives the locking member 500 to rotate in the direction d2 (counterclockwise) - that is, the jump buckle member 600 and the locking member 500 rotate in the same direction under the action of the main spring 850, so that the jump buckle member 600 and the locking member 500 are disengaged from the snap cooperation and the locking member cooperation part 540 and the cooperating member 300 are established and maintained in the second limiting cooperation, and the switch device of the embodiment is switched from Figure 5 the closing state of the device shown in Figure 7 to the tripping state of the device shown in Figure 7 As shown, in the tripping state of the device, the operating mechanism 1234 drives the rocker arm member 700 to rotate from the rocker arm tripping position to the rocker arm re-engaging position, the rocker arm member 700 simultaneously drives the jump buckle member 600 to rotate in the direction d1 (clockwise) to the re-engaging position to make the jump buckle surface 610 cooperate with the locking member 500, the reset structure 400 simultaneously drives the locking member 500 and the traction rod 200 to rotate in the direction d1 (clockwise), so that the locking member cooperation part 540 and the cooperating member 300 are disengaged from the second limiting cooperation and the cooperating member 300 moves to the side of the locking member cooperation part 540 in the direction d3, and the operating mechanism 1234 is switched from the tripping state to the re-engaging state, and after the operating external force is removed, the operating mechanism 1234 is automatically switched from the re-engaging state to the opening state.
[0127] As shown in Figure 1 , 3 Fig. 7, it is a layout of the switch device of the embodiment:
[0128] In the operating mechanism 1234, the two groups of support side plates 110 of the support 100 are oppositely arranged along the direction d5, the jump buckle member 600, the lock buckle member 500, the upper connecting rod 810, the lower connecting rod 860, the first shaft 840, the second shaft 820 and the main spring 850 are arranged in the accommodating space of the support 100, the jump buckle member 600, the lock buckle member 500 and the tripping transmission structure are sequentially arranged along the direction d3 (specifically, the jump buckle member 600, the lock buckle member 500 and the traction rod 200 are sequentially arranged along the direction d3, and the matching member 300 is located between the jump buckle member 600 and the traction rod 200 along the direction d3), the rocker arm cross beam 722 of the rocker arm 720 and the second shaft 820 are respectively located on the two sides of the jump buckle member 600 along the direction d4, the first shaft 840 is located between the two ends of the main spring 850 and between the rocker arm cross beam 722 and the second shaft 820 along the direction d4, the second shaft 820, the lower connecting rod 860 and the movable contact assembly 910 are located on one side of the jump buckle member 600 along the direction d4, and the rotation axes of the jump buckle member 600, the lock buckle member 500, the rocker arm 720 and the traction rod 200 are all parallel to the direction d5; in the projection of the operating mechanism 1234 perpendicular to the direction d5, the rotation axis of the lock buckle member 500, the rotation axis of the traction rod 200 and the axis of the matching member 300 are respectively located at three vertices of a triangle, and the rotation axes of the first shaft 840, the jump buckle shaft 830 and the movable contact assembly 910 are located at three vertices of a triangle.
[0129] As shown in Figure 6-7 The third improvement of the switch device of the embodiment is that:
[0130] The operating mechanism 1234 in the mechanism opening state and the mechanism tripping state, the second shaft 820 is limited with the trip member 600 to prevent the upper connecting rod 810 rotating relative to the trip member 600 along the direction d2. The second shaft 820 drives the movable contact assembly 910 to rotate to the movable contact opening position when the operating mechanism 1234 is switched from the mechanism closing state to the mechanism opening state, so that the distance between the movable contact assembly 910 and the corresponding static contact 920 is L1. In other words, when the operating mechanism 1234 is normally opened, that is, when the operating external force drives the operating mechanism 1234 to switch from the mechanism closing state to the mechanism opening state through the rocker member 720, the second shaft 820 is used to drive the movable contact assembly 910 to rotate to the movable contact opening position, so that the distance between the movable contact assembly 910 and the static contact 920 is L2. The second shaft 820 drives the movable contact assembly 910 to rotate to the movable contact tripping position when the operating mechanism 1234 is switched from the mechanism closing state to the mechanism tripping state, so that the distance between the movable contact assembly 910 and the corresponding static contact 920 is L2, L2>L1. In other words, when the operating mechanism 1234 is tripped and opened, the tripping external force drives the traction rod 200 to rotate, so that the operating mechanism 1234 is switched from the mechanism closing state to the mechanism tripping state, and the second shaft 810 is used to drive the movable contact assembly 910 to rotate to the movable contact tripping position, so that the distance between the movable contact assembly 910 and the static contact 920 is L1, L2>L1. Further, L2≥1.5*L1.
[0131] In existing switching electrical appliances, the moving contact assembly and the housing structure of the switching electrical appliance are limited and matched so that the moving contact assembly stops at the disconnected position when the moving contact assembly is disconnected from the static contact. However, this structure makes the opening distance of the moving contact assembly and the static contact the same when the switching electrical appliance is normally opened and when breaking the fault current (short circuit or overload current). If the opening distance is designed to be large, the operating life of the switching electrical appliance is limited. If the opening distance is designed to be small, although the operating life of the switching electrical appliance is guaranteed, the breaking capacity of the switching electrical appliance is limited. In the switching electrical appliance of this embodiment, the second shaft 820 and the tripping member 600 are limited in cooperation in the electrical appliance opening state and the electrical appliance tripping state. The position of the tripping member 600 remains basically unchanged when the switching electrical appliance is normally opening. When the switching electrical appliance is tripped and opening, the tripping member 600 rotates under the action of the main spring 650, thereby driving the second shaft 820 to move, so that the switching electrical appliance has different opening distances between the moving contact assembly 910 and the static contact 920 when the switching electrical appliance is normally opening and when the switching electrical appliance is tripped and opening - the opening distance between the moving contact assembly 910 and the static contact 920 of the switching electrical appliance in the electrical appliance opening state is smaller than the opening distance between the moving contact assembly 910 and the static contact 920 of the switching electrical appliance in the electrical appliance tripping state, thereby improving the ability of the switching electrical appliance to interrupt fault current; the switching electrical appliance of this embodiment only makes the upper connecting rod 810, the lower connecting rod 860 and the main spring 850 of the operating mechanism 1234 perform a larger action stroke when interrupting the fault current, thereby reducing damage to the structure of the operating mechanism 1234 and extending the service life of the operating mechanism 1234.
[0132] Specifically, the tripping member 600 further includes a tripping member limiting surface 630. When the operating mechanism 1234 is in the mechanism-off state and the mechanism-tripped state, the second shaft 820 abuts against the tripping member limiting surface 630 to prevent the upper connecting rod 800 from rotating relative to the tripping member 600 along the direction d2. When the operating mechanism 1234 is normally off, that is, when the operating mechanism 1234 is switched from the closed state to the open state, the position of the tripping member 600 remains substantially unchanged, the second shaft 820 abuts against the tripping member limiting surface 630, and the second shaft 820 is located in the second-axis tripping position; when the operating mechanism 1234 is tripped and opened—that is, when the operating mechanism 1234 switches from the closed state to the tripped state—the tripping member 600 and the lock member 500 are released from the latching engagement, and the tripping member 600 rotates under the action of the main spring 850. The position where the second axis 820 and the tripping member limiting surface 630 abut against each other is the second-axis tripping position. The second-axis tripping position moves relative to the second-axis opening position, thereby driving the moving contact assembly 910 to rotate a greater angle. Furthermore, the tripping member latching surface 610, the tripping member mating surface 620, and the tripping member limiting surface 630 of the tripping member 600 are sequentially arranged and connected along the rotation direction of the tripping member 600, and the tripping member limiting surface 630 is also parallel to the direction d5.

Further, the jump buckle 600 further comprises a jump buckle shaft hole 640 and a jump buckle connecting hole 650, the jump buckle shaft hole 640 is used for inserting the jump buckle rotating shaft 830 therein, and the jump buckle connecting hole 650 is used for inserting the first shaft 840 therein.
