Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of high-voltage switch technology, and more specifically, to a high-safety high-voltage switch arc-extinguishing chamber contact structure. Background Technology
[0002] Vacuum circuit breakers are named for their high vacuum conditions, which are the arc-extinguishing medium and the insulating medium between the contacts after arc extinguishing. They are widely used in power distribution networks due to their advantages such as small size, light weight, suitability for frequent operation, and maintenance-free arc extinguishing. In the vacuum interrupter chamber of existing vacuum circuit breakers, there is usually one moving contact and one stationary contact. Both short-circuit current interruption and rated current carrying are accomplished by this pair of contacts. The biggest drawback of this type of vacuum interrupter chamber is that it cannot simultaneously possess the capacity to interrupt large short-circuit currents and carry large rated currents. In other words, within this type of interrupter chamber, it is difficult to simultaneously achieve the long-term co-current carrying capacity of a large rated current while maintaining the large short-circuit current interruption capability.
[0003] In high-voltage switchgear, the performance of the arc-extinguishing chamber contact structure plays a crucial role in the switching capacity and safety of the switch. Traditional high-voltage switch arc-extinguishing chamber contact structures have some problems during long-term use. During opening and closing operations, the contact resistance is unstable, which easily leads to overheating and increases safety hazards. To address these issues, we propose a high-safety high-voltage switch arc-extinguishing chamber contact structure. Utility Model Content

Simultaneously, it prevents safety accidents caused by overheating. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0026] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-safety high-voltage switch arc-extinguishing chamber contact structure, including an arc-extinguishing chamber 1, a stationary contact 303, and a moving contact 403. A shielding cover 2 is installed inside the arc-extinguishing chamber 1. An upper cover 302 is installed on the top of the arc-extinguishing chamber 1, and a stationary conductive rod 301 is installed on the upper cover 302. The bottom end of the stationary conductive rod 301 extends into the shielding cover 2 and is fitted with the stationary contact 303. A lower cover 402 is installed at the bottom of the arc-extinguishing chamber 1, and a moving conductive rod 401 is provided on the lower cover 402. The top end of the moving conductive rod 401 extends into the shielding cover 2 and is fitted with the moving contact 403. Furthermore, the moving contact 403 is slidably connected to the moving conductive rod 401, the bottom of the stationary contact 303 is provided with a groove 304, and the top of the moving contact 403 is provided with a receiving groove 404. The receiving groove 404 is provided with a main contact 405 that is adapted to the groove 304. When the moving contact 403 and the stationary contact 303 are closed, their concave and convex surfaces can fit together, increasing the contact area, thereby reducing the contact resistance and reducing the heat generation. The moving conductive rod 401 extends into the receiving groove 404 and is fixedly connected to the main contact 405. The arc-extinguishing chamber 1 is provided with a heat dissipation mechanism connected to the stationary contact 303.
[0027] Please see Figure 4The heat dissipation mechanism includes an insulating heat-conducting rod 501, a heat-conducting plate 502, a heat dissipation ring 503, and heat dissipation fins 504. Multiple insulating heat-conducting rods 501 are fixedly installed on the top of the stationary contact 303, with the top of each rod penetrating the shielding cover 2. Multiple heat-conducting plates 502 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the arc-extinguishing chamber 1, and are fixedly connected to the insulating heat-conducting rods 501. A heat dissipation ring 503 is installed on the outer side of the arc-extinguishing chamber 1, and is fixedly connected to the heat-conducting plate 502. Multiple heat dissipation fins 504 are installed at equal intervals on the outer side of the heat dissipation ring 503. By providing the insulating heat-conducting rods 501, the heat on the contact can be transferred to the heat-conducting plate 502. The heat-conducting plate 502 can transfer heat to the heat dissipation ring 503 and the heat dissipation fins 504. The heat dissipation fins 504 accelerate heat dissipation, facilitating the dissipation of heat generated by the contact and reducing the contact temperature.
[0028] Please see Figure 5 The bottom of the storage slot 404 is provided with multiple sliding slots 601. A sliding seat 602 is slidably installed in the sliding slot 601, and the top of the sliding seat 602 is fixedly connected to the main contact 405. A spring 603 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the sliding slot 601, and the top of the connecting spring 603 is fixedly installed on the sliding seat 602. A pushing slot 701 is provided on one inner wall of the sliding slot 601, and a pushing seat 702 is slidably installed in the pushing slot 701. The pushing seat 702 and the corresponding sliding seat 602 are connected to each other. 2. Fixed connection: When the moving conductive rod 401 drives the main contact 405 to move upward, the main contact 405 can move out of the receiving groove 404. The main contact 405 can drive the sliding seat 602 and the pushing seat 702 to move upward. When the pushing seat 702 contacts the top inner wall of the pushing groove 701, the main contact 405 can drive the moving contact 403 to move upward, so that the moving contact 403 can contact the stationary contact 303. The main contact 405 can also be inserted into the groove 304 and contact the stationary contact 303.
[0029] Please see Figure 5Two connecting rods 801 are fixedly installed on the bottom inner wall of the storage slot 404. A blocking mechanism is provided between the connecting rods 801 and the moving contact 403. The blocking mechanism includes a threaded groove 802, an adjusting screw 803, and an insulating support 804. The threaded groove 802 is opened on the connecting rod 801. The adjusting screw 803 is threadedly installed in the threaded groove 802. The insulating support 804 is fixedly installed at the top of the adjusting screw 803 and is in contact with the moving contact 403. A corrugated tube is sleeved on the moving conductive rod 401, and the bottom end of the corrugated tube is fixedly installed on the lower cover 402. When the moving contact 403 is separated from the stationary contact 303, the insulating support 804 contacts the moving contact 403. The insulating support 804 can block the moving contact 403, so that the main contact 405 can move and be stored in the storage slot 404.
[0030] In summary, the high-safety high-voltage switch arc-extinguishing chamber contact structure provided in this application allows for simultaneous rotation and movement of the adjusting screw 803 under the action of the threaded groove 802. The adjusting screw 803 drives the insulating support base 804 to move, thereby adjusting the distance between the insulating support base 804 and the moving contact 403. When the moving conductive rod 401 drives the main contact 405 upward, the main contact 405 can be moved out of the receiving groove 404. The main contact 405 can drive the sliding seat 602 and the push seat 702 to move upward. When the push seat 702 contacts the top inner wall of the push groove 701, the main contact 405 can drive the moving contact 403 to move upward, so that the moving contact 403 can contact the stationary contact 303. The main contact 405 can also insert into the groove 304 and contact the stationary contact 303. When the moving contact 403 and the stationary contact 303 are closed, their concave and convex surfaces can interlock, increasing the contact area and thus reducing contact resistance and heat generation. Simultaneously, this design also improves the contact stability of the contacts, ensuring reliable contact and separation during opening and closing operations.
[0031] By incorporating an insulating heat-conducting rod 501, heat from the contacts is transferred to the heat-conducting plate 502. The heat-conducting plate 502 then transfers the heat to the heat dissipation ring 503 and the heat dissipation fins 504. The heat dissipation fins 504 accelerate heat dissipation, facilitating the dissipation of heat generated by the contacts, reducing their temperature, and further improving their reliability and lifespan. Simultaneously, it prevents safety accidents caused by overheating.
