DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be apparently and completely described in connection with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all the other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without any creative work belong to the protection scope of the utility model.

[0026] Embodiment 1

[0027] The reclosing module in the embodiment comprises a shell 1, and a circuit board assembly 6, a transmission handle 3, a motor driving mechanism 5, an electromagnetic driving mechanism 4 and a driving rod 2 arranged in the shell 1. Figures 1 to 7 The transmission handle 3 is rotatably arranged in the shell 1 and is connected with the handle 81 of the circuit breaker module 8 in linkage. When a plurality of circuit breaker modules 8 are arranged, the handle 81 of each circuit breaker module 8 is connected and can act synchronously. The driving rod 2 is movably arranged in the shell 1 and has two force receiving ends 22 and a tripping driving part 23. The tripping driving part 23 is arranged close to one of the force receiving ends 22. When the force receiving end 22 is forced, the transmission distance of the force can be reduced due to the close distance, so that the tripping driving part 23 can act faster. The two force receiving ends 22 correspond to the output end of the motor driving mechanism 5 and the output end of the electromagnetic driving mechanism 4 respectively. The tripping driving part 23 is extended from the through hole on the side of the shell 1 and is used to actuate the tripping of the circuit breaker module. On the basis of the motor driving mechanism 5 possessed by the original reclosing module, the electromagnetic driving mechanism 4 is additionally arranged. The motor driving mechanism 5 and the electromagnetic driving mechanism 4 can both drive the driving rod 2 to move and further control the tripping of the circuit breaker module. The electromagnetic driving mechanism does not need to be arranged inside the circuit breaker module, so that the internal space of the circuit breaker module is saved and the internal layout of the circuit breaker module is optimized. The electromagnetic driving mechanism 4 and the motor driving mechanism 5 are electrically connected with the circuit board assembly 6, that is, the actions of the electromagnetic driving mechanism 4 and the motor driving mechanism 5 are controlled by the circuit board assembly 6.

[0028] Referring to Figures 2 to 4The motor driving mechanism 5 includes a motor 51, transmission gears 52, and an output gear 54. The number of transmission gears 52 can be one, two, or another number. The motor 51 is fixed on the motor shaft of the motor 51. The worm 55 is in transmission connection with the output gear 54 through the transmission gears 52. When the worm 55 rotates with the motor shaft, the output gear 54 is driven to rotate through the transmission gears 52. The output gear 54 is coaxially sleeved with the transmission handle 3. The transmission block 31 is arranged on the side of the transmission handle 3. The output gear 54 protrudes with a driving protrusion 56 on one side. The transmission block 31 and one force receiving end 22 are respectively arranged on the two sides of the driving protrusion 56. When the motor driving mechanism 5 drives the output gear 54 to rotate forward, the driving protrusion 56 applies a pushing force to the transmission block 31, thereby driving the transmission handle 3 to rotate and further driving the handle 81 of the circuit breaker module 8 to operate, so as to control the circuit breaker to close. When the motor driving mechanism 5 drives the output gear 54 to rotate reversely, the driving protrusion 56 applies a pushing force to one force receiving end 22 of the driving rod 2, thereby driving the circuit breaker module to trip through the trip driving part 23, so as to control the circuit breaker to open. In the state that the circuit breaker module is closed, the electromagnetic driving mechanism is controlled to operate, thereby applying a pushing force to the other force receiving end 22, thereby driving the circuit breaker module to trip through the trip driving part 23, so as to control the circuit breaker to open. Therefore, the motor driving mechanism 5 and the electromagnetic driving mechanism can both control the circuit breaker module to trip and open.

[0029] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the middle part of the driving rod 2 is rotatably connected with the shell 1 through the connecting shaft 21. The two force receiving ends 22 are respectively arranged on the two sides of the connecting shaft 21, so that the driving rod 2 can rotate around the connecting shaft 21 to realize installation, which is convenient.

[0030] With reference to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the electromagnetic driving mechanism 4 includes an electromagnetic assembly and a top rod 41 driven by the electromagnetic assembly. The electromagnetic assembly generally includes a magnetic yoke, a framework, an electromagnetic coil, an iron core, a counter-force spring, and the like. When the electromagnetic coil is powered, the electromagnetic assembly generates a force on the iron core. When the electromagnetic coil is powered off, the force on the iron core disappears. The structure belongs to the prior art. The end of the top rod 41 corresponds to the corresponding force receiving end 22. When the top rod 41 is driven to move by the electromagnetic assembly, a pushing force is applied to the force receiving end 22, thereby driving the trip driving part 23 to drive the circuit breaker module to trip.

[0031] With reference to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the shell 1 is provided with a slot 15 at a position corresponding to the motor 51 on the side. The side of the motor 51 is embedded in the slot 15. By embedding a part of the motor 51 in the slot 15, the thickness dimension of the shell 1 of the reclosing module can be reduced, and the overall structure is compact.

[0032] With reference to Figure 3 , the driving rod 2 is provided with a curved crank 24, which passes around the mounting shaft of the transmission gear 52, so as to avoid interference of the mounting position.

[0033] With reference to Figure 4 , the housing 1 is provided with a limiting block 16 for limiting the movement range of the driving rod 2. By arranging the limiting block 16, the movement range of the driving rod 2 can be limited, and the limiting block 16 can prevent the driving rod 2 from losing control due to too large movement range. When the driving rod 2 moves to the limit position, it abuts against the limiting block 16, thereby playing a supporting and limiting role.

[0034] With reference to Figures 5 to 7 , in order to facilitate assembly of the components inside the housing 1, the housing 1 is composed of a front shell 12, a middle shell 13 and a rear shell 14. The middle shell 13 has a through portion 131 and a partition portion 132. The through portion 131 connects the front shell 12 and the rear shell 14. The electromagnetic driving mechanism 4 and the motor driving mechanism 5 are limitedly arranged between the partition portion 132 and the front shell 12. Further, the circuit board assembly 6 is composed of three circuit boards, specifically, a first circuit board 61, a second circuit board 62 and a third circuit board 63 arranged along the front-rear direction. The first circuit board 61, the second circuit board 62 and the third circuit board 63 are electrically connected through pin terminals 7. The first circuit board 61 is fixed to the inner side of the front shell 12 and opposite to the through portion 131. The second circuit board 62 and the third circuit board 63 are fixed to the side of the middle shell 13 facing the rear shell 14. The first support column 133 and the second support column 134 are arranged on the partition portion 132 and protrude towards the rear shell 14. The protruding height of the first support column 133 is lower than that of the second support column 134. The second circuit board 62 is supported on the first support column 133 and fixed by screws. The third circuit board 63 is supported on the second support column 134 and fixed by screws. In this way, the three circuit boards can be arranged in layers and in order inside the housing 1, thereby saving space. Moreover, the circuit boards are connected by the pin terminals 7, thereby avoiding connection by soft wires and making the circuit structure clear.
