[0021] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this utility model provides an embodiment of a connector for testing the resistance of switch contact circuits of various forms, including an insulating handle 1 made of insulating hard resin or hard rubber. A rotating shaft 2 is provided on the insulating handle 1, and an L-shaped rotating rod 3 is provided on the rotating shaft 2. The L-shaped rotating rod 3 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 2. A pin 4 is provided on the insulating handle 1 and is movably connected to it. A socket 5 is provided on the L-shaped rotating rod 3, and the socket 5 is engaged with the pin 4. The pin 4 is mounted on the insulating handle 1 and is movable, thus restricting the free movement of the L-shaped rotating rod 3. To better implement this utility model device, a spring-loaded component is provided on the pin 4 to maintain the tendency of the pin 4 to move towards the socket 5. The L-shaped rotating rod 3 has two insertion holes 5. The extension line of each insertion hole 5 coincides with the axis of the two ends of the L-shaped rotating rod 3. One of the insertion holes 5 is connected to a pin 4 for aligning the axis of one end of the L-shaped rotating rod 3 with the center line of the insulating handle 1, facilitating the connection of the connector to the circuit breaker contacts via the insulating handle 1. The two ends of the L-shaped rotating rod 3 are respectively provided with an inner clamping part 6 and an outer clamping part 7, which are electrically connected. The inner clamping part 6 is used to connect with the circuit breaker's stud contacts, connecting the internal circuit of the circuit breaker to a circuit resistance tester. The outer clamping part 7 is used to snap into the circuit breaker's moving contact post, connecting the internal circuit of the circuit breaker to a circuit resistance tester. Pressure sensors 8 are respectively provided on the clamping parts 6 and 7, and a display device 9 is provided on the insulating handle 1, which is electrically connected to the pressure sensors 8. The display device 9 uses a liquid crystal display or a digital tube display. The driving circuit of the display device 9 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. This invention includes an inner clamping part 6 and an outer clamping part 7, which are respectively used to connect to the moving contact and the swivel contact of the circuit breaker. This adapts to the needs of testing the circuit resistance of different types of switch contacts. The device of this invention is convenient, simple to use, highly reliable, and improves the efficiency of circuit resistance testing.

[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the inner clamping part 6 includes a circular tube 61, a conductive plate 62, and a tapered rod 63. The circular tube 61 is fixedly connected to the L-shaped rotating rod 3, and the conductive plate 62 is electrically connected to the outer clamping part 7. The L-shaped rotating rod 3 can be made of lightweight insulating material to reduce the weight of the device. The conductive plate 62 consists of two sets of oppositely arranged arc-shaped plates. The conductive plate 62 is a conductive component used to abut against the stationary contact of the circuit breaker and to connect the circuit breaker circuit to the circuit resistance tester.

[0025] like Figure 3As shown, a top rod 64 is vertically arranged on the conductive plate 62. The top rod 64 extends through the side wall of the circular tube 61 into the interior of the circular tube 61. The top rod 64 is movably connected to the circular tube 61 by insertion. A compression spring 65 is sleeved on the top rod 64. One end of the compression spring 65 abuts against the inner wall of the circular tube 61, and the other end of the compression spring 65 is fixedly connected to the top rod 64. The compression spring 65 is used to tend to move the two conductive plates 62 towards each other. The conical rod 63 is slidably connected to the L-shaped rotating rod 3. The conical rod 63 extends between the two sets of top rods 64, and the conical surface of the conical rod 63 abuts against the top rod 64. The pressure sensor 8 is arranged on the conductive plate 62. The conical rod 63 has a certain taper, and its conical surface can abut against the top rod 64 at various positions. By opening the top rods 64 at both ends by the conical rod 63, the distance between the two conductive plates 62 can be adjusted to achieve the pressure between the conductive plate 62 and the circuit breaker contacts. A pressure sensor 8 is provided on the outer side of the conductive plate 62. The pressure sensor transmits the detected pressure data to the display device 9, which displays the pressure value between the connector and the contact to prevent excessive pressure between the connector and the contact from damaging the contact surface.

[0026] like Figure 5As shown, the L-shaped rotating rod 3 has an axially arranged shaft hole 31, and the tapered rod 63 is disposed within the shaft hole 31. The tapered rod 63 is slidably connected to the shaft hole 31, and the shaft hole 31 is provided to facilitate the free sliding of the tapered rod 63 within the shaft hole 31. The L-shaped rotating rod 3 has a radially arranged sliding groove 32, and a sliding pin 66 passes through the tapered rod 63. One end of the sliding pin 66 is disposed within the sliding groove 32, and the sliding pin 66 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 32. The sliding groove 32 is provided on one side of the shaft hole 31 to facilitate the free sliding of the sliding pin 66. By controlling the sliding of the sliding pin 66, the sliding of the tapered rod 63 is achieved, thereby adjusting the pressure value between the conductive plate 62 and the contact. The other end of the sliding pin 66 is provided with a spring piece 67. Multiple spring pieces 67 can be provided, disposed on the other side of the tapered rod 63. The other end of the spring piece 67 abuts against the inner wall of the shaft hole 31, and the function of the spring piece 67 is to spring the tapered rod 63 toward the other end of the shaft hole 31. The spring piece 67 is a Z-shaped spring piece. A reverse tooth 33 is provided on the inner side of the slide groove 32, and a retaining tooth 68 is provided on the sliding pin 66. The retaining tooth 68 and the reverse tooth 33 are engaged and connected, and the reverse tooth 33 is used to restrict the unidirectional sliding of the sliding pin 66. In this embodiment of the invention, under the action of the spring piece 67, the cone rod 63 moves towards one side of the slide groove 32. The reverse tooth 33 engages with the retaining tooth 68 to restrict the cone rod 63 from sliding backward. When the cone rod 63 is pushed to the right, the conductive plates 62 are pushed apart to both sides, increasing the pressure between the conductive plates 62 and the contacts. Due to the action of the reverse tooth 33, the cone rod 63 cannot move to the left. Therefore, the pressure value between the two conductive plates 62 and the contacts remains constant. When it is necessary to reduce the pressure or after the test is completed, the cone rod 63 is pushed to the other side of the shaft hole 31, and the reverse tooth 33 disengages from the retaining tooth 68. At this time, the cone rod 63 can slide to the left to release the pressure between the two conductive plates 62 and the contacts. In order to better implement the device of this utility model, an elastic component is added between the cone rod 63 and the shaft hole 31, so that the cone rod 63 maintains the tendency to move to the left.

[0027] like Figure 4As shown, the outer clamping part 7 includes a ring body 71, an adjusting tube 72, a T-shaped rod 73, a clamping plate 74, an adjusting nut 75, and an adjusting spring 76. The clamping plate 74 is a conductor and is electrically connected to the inner clamping part 6. The adjusting tube 72 consists of three sets, which are uniformly fixed along the radial direction of the ring body 71. The T-shaped rod 73 passes through the adjusting tube 72 and is slidably connected to the adjusting tube 72. The clamping plate 74 is fixedly connected to the end of the T-shaped rod 73. The adjusting spring 76 passes through the T-shaped rod 73, and its two ends are respectively abutted against the clamping plate 74 and the adjusting nut 75. The adjusting nut 75 is internally threaded to the adjusting tube 72. The pressure sensor 8 is mounted on the clamping plate 74. In this embodiment of the invention, the adjusting nut 75 is a long nut, threadedly connected to the adjusting tank 72. An adjusting spring 76 is provided between the adjusting nut 75 and the T-shaped rod 73. The adjusting spring 76 is used to maintain the outward movement tendency of the T-shaped rod 73. When the relative position between the adjusting nut 75 and the adjusting tank 72 is adjusted, the pressure value of the adjusting spring 76 changes, which is used to adjust the pressure between the clamping plate 74 and the contact. When it is necessary to test the internal circuit contact resistance of the circuit breaker by connecting to the moving contact column of the circuit breaker, the external clamping part 7 of the device of this invention is clamped onto the moving contact column of the circuit breaker. By adjusting the pressure between the clamping plate 74 and the contact, good contact between the connector and the circuit breaker is ensured, the accuracy of the circuit resistance test is ensured, and the pressure between the clamping plate 74 and the contact is detected to protect the circuit breaker contacts from damage.

[0028] The L-shaped rotating rod 3 has an angle of 120 degrees. Two insertion holes 5 are provided on the L-shaped rotating rod 3, which are used for two wiring positions respectively, so as to meet the wiring needs of different contact shapes.

[0029] The insulated handle 1 is provided with anti-slip ridges.

[0030] The conductive plate 62 is made of copper plated with silver.

[0031] The clamping plate 74 is made of silver-plated copper.

[0032] Of course, the above embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
