Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an electric operating mechanism for a molded case circuit breaker. Background Technology
[0002] The electric operating mechanism of a molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) is an electrical device used to control the MCCB, achieving the connection and disconnection of the MCCB electrically. Existing electric operating mechanisms are fixed to the MCCB cover via an operating mechanism mounting bracket, typically using bolt connections. Because the closing and opening movements of the MCCB involve significant fluctuations, they are prone to considerable vibration. Frequent use can cause the connection between the operating mechanism mounting bracket and the MCCB cover to loosen, resulting in displacement of the electric operating mechanism. This displacement directly affects the stability of the electric operating mechanism, preventing it from accurately driving the circuit breaker to complete the closing and opening actions. This reduces the stability and reliability of the operation, posing a safety hazard. Therefore, improvements are proposed to address this issue. Utility Model Content

The bottom of the operating mechanism housing is provided with a housing base plate and a housing cavity. The operating mechanism mounting bracket includes an upper mounting part, one end of which is vertically bent in sequence to form a bracket raising part and a bracket lower mounting part. The upper mounting part is bolted to the housing base plate, the bracket lower mounting part, and the circuit breaker top cover. The left and right ends of the bracket raising part are vertically bent inward to form bracket insertion parts, and the bracket insertion parts are provided with bracket anti-slip openings.
[0005] The circuit breaker cover includes a top cover protrusion and an outer top cover portion located at the upper and lower ends of the top cover protrusion and used for fixing the lower mounting portion of the bracket. The upper and lower ends of the top cover protrusion are provided with top cover protrusion insertion ports for the bracket insertion portion to be inserted. The side of the top cover protrusion is provided with a top cover locking port that is perpendicularly connected to the top cover protrusion insertion port. The top cover lock includes a locking part, which passes through the top cover locking port and the bracket anti-shifting port.
[0006] One end of the locking part of the lock is bent vertically inward in sequence to form the lock end stop and the lock hand lever part.
[0007] The locking mechanism has a locking indicator on its manual lever part.
[0008] The other end of the mounting part on the bracket is bent vertically upward to form the upper limit part of the bracket, and the bottom plate of the outer shell is provided with an outer shell limiting port corresponding to the upper limit part of the bracket.
[0009] The anti-slip opening of the bracket, the locking opening of the upper cover, and the locking part of the lock are all square structures.
[0010] The bracket has two connectors.
[0011] The advantages of this utility model of electric operating mechanism for molded case circuit breakers are as follows: the fit design between the bracket insertion part and the upper cover protrusion part is locked by the upper cover locking device, which significantly enhances the connection reliability between the operating mechanism mounting bracket and the circuit breaker upper cover, effectively preventing connection loosening and displacement caused by vibration and frequent operation, ensuring the stability of the electric operating mechanism and higher safety.
