[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Combination Figures 1-5 A mechanical interlocking device for a high-voltage switchgear includes a switchgear 1 and a cabinet door 3. Electrical equipment 2 is installed inside the switchgear 1. A rain cover 5 is fixedly installed on the switchgear 1. A viewing window 4 is opened on the cabinet door 3. Ventilation openings 6 are opened at both ends of the switchgear 1. A dustproof net 7 is fixedly installed inside the ventilation opening 6. An interlocking mechanism 8 is installed on the cabinet door 3.

[0023] See Figures 2-4Furthermore, the locking mechanism 8 includes a first rotating rod 801 that is rotatably mounted through the cabinet door 3. One end of the first rotating rod 801 is fixedly mounted with a drive gear 802. Two second rotating rods 803 are rotatably mounted on the inner side of the cabinet door 3. A driven gear 804 that meshes with the drive gear 802 is fixedly mounted on the second rotating rod 803. A slide rail 805 is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the cabinet door 3. A sliding plate 806 is slidably connected inside the slide rail 805. A toothed plate 809 that meshes with the driven gear 804 is fixedly mounted on the sliding plate 806. A slot 810 that engages with the sliding plate 806 is provided inside the switch cabinet 1. Slider blocks 807 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the sliding plate 806. A limit groove 808 is provided on the slide rail 805. The slider 807 is slidably connected to the limit groove 808.

[0024] Specifically, by rotating the first lever 801 through the handwheel 811, the driving gear 802 is rotated, causing the two driven gears 804 meshing with the driving gear 802 to rotate synchronously in opposite directions. This allows the toothed plate 809 meshing with the driven gears 804 to drive the sliding plate 806 to move along the slide rail 805. When the sliding plate 806 is moved to disengage from the slot 810, the cabinet door 3 can be unlocked. When the cabinet door 3 is closed, the handwheel 811 is rotated in the opposite direction, causing the two sliding plates 806 to reset and re-engage with the slot 810. The locking strength is high and the operation is simple and convenient.

[0025] See Figure 5 Furthermore, a handwheel 811 is fixedly installed at the other end of the first rotating rod 801. A lock hole 812 is provided on the first rotating rod 801. A fixed cylinder 813 is fixedly installed on the outside of the cabinet door 3. A movable cavity 814 is provided inside the fixed cylinder 813. A moving block 815 is slidably connected inside the movable cavity 814. A locking rod 816 adapted to the lock hole 812 is fixedly installed on one side of the moving block 815. A guide rod 817 is fixedly installed on the other side of the moving block 815. A locking rod 816 fixedly installed in the movable cavity 814 is sleeved on the guide rod 817. The spring 818 between 4 and the moving block 815, the locking rod 816 slides through the movable cavity 814 and engages with the lock hole 812, the guide rod 817 slides through the movable cavity 814 and is fixedly connected to the limit block 819, the limit block 819 is fixedly provided with a pull ring 820, the outer side of the cabinet door 3 is fixedly provided with a first fixing block 821 and a second fixing block 823, the first fixing block 821 is slidably provided with a limit bolt 822, and the second fixing block 823 is provided with a limit hole 824 that is inserted into the limit bolt 822.

[0026] Specifically, by pulling the pull ring 820, the guide rod 817 drives the locking rod 816 to disengage from the lock hole 812 via the moving block 815, thereby releasing the first rotating rod 801 from its locked state. When the pull ring 820 is pulled to the limit bolt 822, the limit bolt 822 passes through the pull ring 820 and is inserted into the limit hole 824, so that the locking rod 816 can be locked. When the cabinet door 3 is closed, the lock on the pull ring 820 is released by pulling out the limit bolt 822, so that the locking rod 816 can automatically engage with the lock hole 812 under the rebound action of the spring 818, thereby achieving the locking and fixing of the first rotating rod 801 and preventing accidental contact with the handwheel 811 that would cause it to slip.

[0027] In actual operation, when it is necessary to open the cabinet door 3 of switch cabinet 1, firstly, by pulling the pull ring 820, the guide rod 817 drives the locking rod 816 to disengage from the lock hole 812 through the moving block 815, so that the first rotating rod 801 is unlocked. When the pull ring 820 is pulled to the limit bolt 822, the limit bolt 822 passes through the pull ring 820 and is inserted into the limit hole 824, so that the locking rod 816 can be locked. By rotating the first rotating rod 801 through the handwheel 811, the driving gear 802 is rotated, so that the two driven gears 804 meshed with the driving gear 802 can rotate synchronously in opposite directions, so that the toothed plate 809 meshed with the driven gear 804 can drive the sliding plate 806 to move along the slide rail 805. When the sliding plate 806 is moved to disengage from the slot 810, the cabinet door 3 can be unlocked, so that the cabinet door 3 can be opened to operate the electrical equipment 2.

[0028] When the cabinet door 3 is closed, the handwheel 811 is rotated in the reverse direction, causing the two sliding plates 806 to reset and re-engage with the slot 810. At this time, the locking hole 812 on the first rotating rod 801 is reset. By pulling out the limit bolt 822, the locking of the pull ring 820 is released, allowing the locking rod 816 to automatically engage with the locking hole 812 under the rebound action of the spring 818, thereby locking and fixing the first rotating rod 801 and preventing accidental contact with the handwheel 811 that could cause slippage.

[0029] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
