[0028] Example 1

[0029] like Figures 1-2 As shown, this utility model provides a disconnecting switch opening and closing mechanism, comprising:

[0030] The middle shaft 7 is connected to a top shaft at its top;

[0031] A rotating shaft 8 has one end extending through a through hole on the side of the neutral shaft 7 and the other end connected to a lever 10. A lever 9 is installed on the rotating shaft 8 between the lever and the neutral shaft 7. The lever 9 is fitted into the irregular hole of the lever 10. The lever 9 can serve as an indicator to facilitate correct installation of the bevel gear and prevent the bevel gear from dislodging during operation, thus facilitating smoother operation of the lever 10. The lever 9 has a square hole, and the rotating shaft 8 has a square shaft platform between the lever and the neutral shaft 7. The square shaft platform is fitted with the square hole of the lever 9. The square hole fits more easily and securely, preventing loosening, and also facilitates better engagement and opening / closing with the irregular hole of the lever 10.

[0032] The handle shaft 1 is mounted on the top shaft. The handle shaft 1 is also connected to the rotating shaft 8 through a transmission assembly, allowing the rotating shaft 8 to rotate synchronously when the handle shaft 1 is rotated. The transmission assembly includes a first bevel gear 2 disposed at the lower part of the handle shaft 1 and a second bevel gear mounted on the rotating shaft 8 and located between the square shaft platform and the center shaft 7. The first bevel gear 2 and the second bevel gear mesh with each other in a mutually perpendicular configuration.

[0033] U-shaped frame 3 is located on one side of the central axis 7;

[0034] A torsion spring 4 is fixed at one end to the U-shaped frame 3 and at the other end to the lever 10. The torsion spring 4 includes a helical part and long and short arms connecting the two ends of the helical part. The long and short arms can be bent and rest against the sides of the helical part. Two through holes are provided on both sides of the U-shaped frame 3, and the long arm passes through and is fixed in the two through holes. The short arm is fixed in the bottom hole of the lever.

[0035] Furthermore, a positioning shaft 5 is installed on the portion of the rotating shaft 8 that extends beyond the center shaft 7. A retaining spring 6 is provided at the abutment connection between the positioning shaft 5 and the center shaft 7. The function of the positioning shaft 5 is to fix the assembly position of the rotating shaft.

[0036] Furthermore, the top of the handle shaft 1 has a hand grip for easy manual holding by the user.

[0037] When the handle shaft 1 is turned, the first bevel gear 2 drives the second bevel gear to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 8 to rotate the lever 10. The lever 10 can then drive the torsion spring 4 to rotate to achieve the opening and closing of the circuit breaker. When the long arm of the torsion spring 4 rotates to the lower end of the two through holes of the U-shaped frame 3 in conjunction with the bottom hole of the lever 10, the circuit breaker is open. When the long arm of the torsion spring 4 rotates to the upper end of the two through holes of the U-shaped frame 3 in conjunction with the bottom hole of the lever 10, the circuit breaker is closed.

[0038] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any person skilled in the art can make various modifications and alterations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the claims.
