Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of disconnecting switch mechanisms, and more specifically, to a disconnecting switch mechanism and a switching device. Background Technology
[0002] In today's world where electricity is widely used, disconnecting switches are typically installed in circuits to perform closing, opening, and grounding operations in order to ensure safe use of the circuits. When closed, the circuit is connected; when opened, the circuit is disconnected; and when grounded, the circuit is grounded.
[0003] In the existing technology, when the disconnecting switch mechanism performs closing, opening, and grounding, the operator's own experience or external circuits are used to determine whether the disconnecting switch mechanism is in place. This cannot accurately determine whether the mechanism is in place, thus posing a safety hazard. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem solved by this utility model is the inability to accurately determine when the circuit is closed, opened, or grounded, which leads to potential safety hazards.
[0005] The embodiments of this utility model can be implemented as follows:

[0012] A closing micro switch is fixedly mounted on the mounting body. The closing micro switch is located near the cam structure, and the side of the closing micro switch facing the cam structure has a first trigger switch.
[0013] When the output shaft performs closing, the abutting part abuts against the first trigger switch; the closing micro switch is configured to emit a first electrical signal when the first trigger switch is abutted, and the first electrical signal is used to indicate that the isolating switch mechanism is in the closed state.
[0014] The advantages of the disconnecting switch mechanism provided by this utility model compared to the prior art include:
[0015] When the disconnecting switch mechanism performs the closing action, the output shaft rotates relative to the mounting body, and the closing action is performed through the output shaft. At the same time, the output shaft drives the cam structure to rotate, which in turn drives the supporting part to rotate synchronously. After the disconnecting switch mechanism completes the closing action, the supporting part abuts against the first trigger switch of the closing micro switch, thereby triggering the closing micro switch to send out the first electrical signal. The operator can determine that the disconnecting switch mechanism has completed the closing action based on the first electrical signal, thus accurately determining that the disconnecting switch mechanism has been closed in place. Based on this, the disconnecting switch mechanism provided by this utility model can improve the problem in the prior art where the operator cannot accurately determine whether the closing action is in place, which leads to safety hazards.
[0016] Optionally, the disconnecting switch mechanism further includes a grounding micro switch, which is fixedly mounted on the mounting body and spaced apart from the closing micro switch; a second trigger switch is provided on the side of the grounding micro switch facing the cam structure; when the output shaft is grounded, the abutting part abuts against the second trigger switch, and the grounding micro switch is configured to emit a second electrical signal when the second trigger switch is abutted, the second electrical signal being used to characterize that the disconnecting switch mechanism is in a grounded state.
[0017] Optionally, the disconnecting switch mechanism further includes a tripping micro switch, which is fixedly mounted on the mounting body. The tripping micro switch is spaced apart from the closing micro switch and the grounding micro switch. A third trigger switch is provided on the side of the tripping micro switch facing the cam structure. When the output shaft performs tripping, the abutment abuts against the third trigger switch. The tripping micro switch is configured to emit a third electrical signal when the third trigger switch is abutted. The third electrical signal is used to indicate that the disconnecting switch mechanism is in the tripping state.
[0018] Optionally, the closing micro switch, the grounding micro switch, and the opening micro switch are arranged around the cam structure, and the opening micro switch is located between the closing micro switch and the grounding micro switch.

[0033] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.
[0034] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a disconnecting switch mechanism 10 and a switching device using the disconnecting switch mechanism 10. The disconnecting switch mechanism 10 and the switching device can be applied to a disconnecting switch, which in turn is applied to a circuit. The disconnecting switch mechanism may operate the disconnecting switch to perform closing, opening, and grounding functions. Specifically, when the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 and the switching device perform closing, the circuit is connected; when performing opening, the circuit is disconnected; and when performing grounding, the circuit is grounded. Optionally, the switching device can be a disconnecting switch or other switches composed of a disconnecting switch mechanism. In this embodiment, the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 and the switching device can improve the safety hazards caused by the inability to accurately determine when closing, opening, and grounding are in place in the prior art.
[0035] In this embodiment, the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 includes a mounting body 100, a grounding operating shaft 200, a grounding transition shaft 300, an output shaft 400, a cam structure 500, and a closing micro switch 610. The grounding operating shaft 200 is rotatably connected to the mounting body 100; the grounding transition shaft 300 is sleeved on the grounding operating shaft 200 and can rotate freely relative to the grounding operating shaft 200. The output shaft 400 is drivenly connected to the grounding operating shaft 200 and to the grounding transition shaft 300; the output shaft 400 is used to perform closing, opening, and grounding operations. It is worth noting that in this embodiment, the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 may also include a closing operating shaft, which is rotatably mounted on the mounting body 100 and drivenly connected to the output shaft 400. Optionally, in this embodiment, the grounding operating shaft 200 is used to perform grounding operations, while the closing operating shaft is used to perform closing and opening operations. Alternatively, in this embodiment, after the closing operation shaft performs the closing operation, the grounding operation shaft 200 cannot directly perform the grounding operation. The grounding operation shaft 200 can only perform the grounding operation after the closing operation shaft performs the opening operation. Further, the cam structure 500 is fixedly mounted on the grounding transition shaft 300 to rotate with it; the cam structure 500 has a protruding abutment portion 510. The closing microswitch 610 is fixedly mounted on the mounting body 100, located near the cam structure 500, and has a first trigger switch 611 on the side facing the cam structure 500. When the output shaft 400 performs the closing operation, the abutment portion 510 abuts against the first trigger switch 611; the closing microswitch 610 is configured to emit a first electrical signal when the first trigger switch 611 is abutted, the first electrical signal indicating that the isolating switch mechanism 10 is in the closed state.
[0036] As described above, when the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 performs the closing action, the output shaft 400 rotates relative to the mounting body 100, and the closing action is performed through the output shaft 400. At the same time, the output shaft 400 drives the cam structure 500 to rotate, which in turn drives the supporting part 510 to rotate. After the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 completes the closing action, the supporting part 510 abuts against the first trigger switch 611 of the closing micro switch 610, thereby triggering the closing micro switch 610 to send out the first electrical signal. The operator can judge that the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 has completed the closing action based on the first electrical signal, and can accurately judge that the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 has been closed in place. Based on this, the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 provided by this utility model can improve the problem in the prior art where the operator cannot accurately judge whether the closing is in place, which leads to safety hazards.
[0037] It should be noted that the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 may also include a control device for receiving the first electrical signal. The control device may be equipped with a display device or a prompting device. When the control device receives the first signal, it issues a prompting signal through the display device or the prompting device to prompt the user that the circuit breaker is closed, thereby facilitating accurate judgment of whether the circuit breaker is closed.
[0038] Optionally, in this embodiment, the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 further includes a grounding micro switch 620, which is fixedly mounted on the mounting body 100 and spaced apart from the closing micro switch 610. A second trigger switch 621 is provided on the side of the grounding micro switch 620 facing the cam structure 500. When the output shaft 400 is grounded, the holding part 510 abuts against the second trigger switch 621. The grounding micro switch 620 is configured to emit a second electrical signal when the second trigger switch 621 is abutted. The second electrical signal is used to indicate that the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 is in a grounded state.
[0039] In addition, in this embodiment, the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 also includes a tripping micro switch 630, which is fixedly mounted on the mounting body 100. The tripping micro switch 630 is spaced apart from the closing micro switch 610 and the grounding micro switch 620. A third trigger switch 631 is provided on the side of the tripping micro switch 630 facing the cam structure 500. When the output shaft 400 performs tripping, the holding part 510 abuts against the third trigger switch 631. The tripping micro switch 630 is configured to emit a third electrical signal when the third trigger switch 631 is abutted. The third electrical signal is used to indicate that the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 is in the tripping state.
[0040] In other words, a closing microswitch 610, a grounding microswitch 620, and a opening microswitch 630 can be simultaneously installed on the main installation body 100 to generate a first electrical signal, a second electrical signal, and a third electrical signal respectively when closing, opening, and grounding occur. The control device can receive these first, second, and third electrical signals and issue corresponding prompt signals upon receiving them to indicate to the operator that the operation has been completed. Therefore, the installation of the closing microswitch 610, the opening microswitch 630, and the grounding microswitch 620 helps the operator accurately determine whether closing, opening, and grounding are complete, thereby avoiding safety hazards caused by inaccurate judgments.
[0041] It should be understood that in other embodiments of this application, one or both of the tripping microswitch 630 and the grounding microswitch 620 may be omitted.
[0042] In this embodiment, the closing microswitch 610, the grounding microswitch 620, and the opening microswitch 630 are arranged around the cam structure 500, with the opening microswitch 630 located between the closing microswitch 610 and the grounding microswitch 620. When the grounding operation shaft 200 or the closing operation shaft is operated, power is output to the output shaft 400 to rotate it. The output shaft 400 can achieve closing, opening, and grounding respectively at different rotation angles. Based on this, by placing the closing microswitch 610, the grounding microswitch 620, and the opening microswitch 630 in different positions and arranging them around the cam structure 500, they can correspond to the positions where the output shaft 400 performs different functions. This allows the output shaft 400 to abut against the closing microswitch 610, the opening microswitch 630, and the grounding microswitch 620 respectively via the abutment part 510 during closing, opening, and grounding.
[0043] Generally, within the rotational stroke range of the output shaft 400, the closing position and the grounding position are located at the two ends of the stroke range, while the opening position is located in the middle of the stroke range. Based on this, the opening micro switch 630 is located in the middle of the closing micro switch 610 and the grounding micro switch 620, so that the closing position, the opening position, and the grounding position correspond one-to-one with the closing micro switch 610, the opening micro switch 630, and the grounding micro switch 620, respectively.
[0044] In this embodiment, please refer to the following: Figure 2 and Figure 3 The supporting part 510 has a supporting surface 511 and two guide surfaces 512 on its outer periphery. In the rotation direction of the supporting part 510, the two guide surfaces 512 are located on both sides of the supporting surface 511, and an arc transition surface is provided between the guide surface 512 and the supporting surface 511. By setting the arc transition surface, the first trigger switch 611 can slide smoothly between the guide surface 512, the arc transition surface and the supporting surface 511, ensuring that the closing micro switch 610, the opening micro switch 630 and the grounding micro switch 620 are not damaged, and extending the service life of the closing micro switch 610, the opening micro switch 630 and the grounding micro switch 620.
[0045] Taking the cooperation between the abutment part 510 and the first trigger switch 611 as an example, during the rotation of the cam structure 500 following the output shaft 400, the abutment part 510 first contacts the first trigger switch 611 through one of the guide surfaces 512; as the cam structure 500 continues to rotate, the first trigger switch 611 slides on the guide surface 512 and gradually approaches the abutment surface 511. At the same time, since the abutment part 510 is in a convex state, it will gradually press down on the first trigger switch 611; when the cam structure 500 rotates to the point where the abutment surface 511 contacts the first trigger switch 611, the degree of pressing down on the first trigger switch 611 is the highest, realizing the triggering of the closing micro switch 610, and the closing micro switch 610 sends out the first electrical signal. During the process from closing to opening, the first trigger switch 611 moves off the abutment surface 511 and onto the guide surface 512, gradually moving away from the abutment surface 511. This causes the first trigger switch 611 to gradually return to its original state until the abutment part 510 is completely separated from the first trigger switch 611. Similarly, when the second trigger switch 621 and the third trigger switch 631 are pressed down or disengaged, the cam structure 500 and the abutment part 510 perform the same actions as described above, which will not be repeated here.
[0046] Optionally, in this embodiment, the cam structure 500 includes an integrally formed main body 520 and a supporting part 510. The supporting part 510 is disposed on one side of the main body 520. The outer contour of the cross-section of the main body 520 is circular, and the guide surface 512 is tangent to the outer side of the main body 520. In this embodiment, the main body 520 is sleeved on the grounding transition shaft 300, while the supporting part 510 is disposed on the outer side of the main body 520. To ensure synchronous rotation of the main body 520 and the grounding transition shaft 300, the cross-section of the inner contour of the main body 520 is non-circular. Similarly, the cross-section of the part of the grounding transition shaft 300 that mates with the main body 520 is non-circular, and the two have the same shape. In this embodiment, the cross-section of the inner contour of the main body 520 is a shape composed of two arcs and two straight lines; similarly, the outer contour of the cross-section of the grounding transition shaft 300 is a shape formed by two arcs and two straight lines. It should be understood that in other embodiments, the main body 520 and the ground transition shaft 300 may also adopt other shapes. In addition, having the guide surface 512 tangent to the outer contour of the main body 520 facilitates the fabrication of the cam structure 500, and also facilitates the smooth movement of the first trigger switch 611 onto the guide surface 512 when it contacts the outer contour of the main body 520.
[0047] In summary, in the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 and switching device provided in this embodiment, when the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 performs the closing action, the output shaft 400 rotates relative to the mounting body 100, and the closing action is performed through the output shaft 400. At the same time, the output shaft 400 drives the cam structure 500 to rotate, which in turn drives the supporting part 510 to rotate. After the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 completes the closing action, the supporting part 510 abuts against the first trigger switch 611 of the closing micro switch 610, thereby triggering the closing micro switch 610 to send out the first electrical signal. The operator can judge that the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 has completed the closing action based on the first electrical signal, and can accurately judge that the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 has been closed in place. Based on this, the disconnecting switch mechanism 10 provided by this utility model can improve the problem in the prior art where the operator cannot accurately judge whether the closing action is in place, which leads to safety hazards. Furthermore, a closing microswitch 610, a grounding microswitch 620, and a opening microswitch 630 are simultaneously installed on the main installation body 100 to generate a first electrical signal, a second electrical signal, and a third electrical signal respectively when closing, opening, and grounding occur. The control device can receive these first, second, and third electrical signals and issue corresponding prompt signals upon receiving them to indicate to the operator that the operation has been completed. Therefore, the installation of the closing microswitch 610, the opening microswitch 630, and the grounding microswitch 620 helps the operator accurately determine whether closing, opening, and grounding are complete, thereby avoiding safety hazards caused by inaccurate judgments.
[0048] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
