[0002] With rapid economic development, people's living standards have significantly improved, and they have gained a more comprehensive understanding of electrical safety. To increase electrical safety, disconnect switches are usually installed in circuits so that electrical equipment can be disconnected from live parts and maintain an effective isolation distance during maintenance.

[0003] For low-voltage disconnect switches, most products on the market use a manual operating mechanism to close and open the switch body.

[0004] With the improvement of product performance indicators, taking DC operating environment as an example, the rated operating voltage has been increased to DC1500V.

[0013] The trip unit is capable of receiving external signals and driving the latch according to the external signals, so that the linkage transmission assembly switches from the closed state or the re-clamping open state to the tripped state.

[0014] In one embodiment, a handle centering assembly is also included, the handle centering assembly including a first drive shaft connected to the operating handle and a second drive shaft connected to the first linkage.

[0015] In one embodiment, the housing includes a bottom shell, a middle shell, and a top shell that are stacked sequentially. The first connecting rod is rotatably connected to the bottom shell, the handle central assembly is connected to the middle shell, the operating handle is connected to the top shell, the first drive shaft passes through the top shell and is connected to the operating handle, and the second drive shaft passes through the middle shell and is connected to the first connecting rod.

[0016] In one embodiment, the handle center unit adopts a linkage drive structure or a gear drive structure, and provides the operating handle with a rotation angle of not less than 90°.

[0017] In one embodiment, the handle center assembly includes a first handle drive rod, a second handle drive rod, and a third handle drive rod. The first handle drive rod is connected to the first drive shaft, the second handle drive rod is rotatably connected to both the first and third handle drive rods, and the third handle drive rod is connected to the second drive shaft.

[0018] In one embodiment, the housing is provided with a first sliding groove, the shape of which is adapted to the movement path at the connection between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod, and a first slider is provided at the connection between the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod, the first slider slidingly engaging with the first sliding groove.

[0020] In one embodiment, the latch is rotatably connected to the housing, and a third elastic element is provided between the latch and the housing. When the third elastic element is in its natural state, the latch can be engaged with the third connecting rod.

[0021] In one embodiment, the trip unit is provided with a retractable push rod, which is driven to extend and retract according to an external signal. When the push rod is extended, it abuts against the latch, providing the latch with a force for counterclockwise rotation.

[0022] A disconnecting switch includes a switching device and an operating mechanism, wherein the fifth link of the operating mechanism is connected to the moving contact drive shaft of the switching device.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0024] 1. The aforementioned operating mechanism features a linkage transmission assembly on its housing, connecting the operating handle and the moving contact drive shaft. This allows rotation of the operating handle to be transmitted to the moving contact drive shaft via the linkage transmission assembly, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the disconnector switch. When the latch is engaged with the third link, rotating the operating handle switches the linkage transmission assembly from a re-clamping open state to a closed state. When the latch is disengaged from the third link, rotating the operating handle only switches the linkage transmission assembly from a tripping state to a re-clamping open state. When the linkage transmission assembly is in the closed state, the latch can be driven by the trip unit to switch the linkage transmission assembly from the closed state to the tripping state, or the operating handle can be rotated to switch the linkage transmission assembly from the closed state to the re-clamping open state. Therefore, this operating mechanism incorporates a novel linkage transmission assembly, resulting in a simple structure, reduced height and volume, and remote automatic tripping of the trip unit and latch, which improves the safety of the disconnector switch.

[0025] 2. The above-mentioned operating mechanism realizes the re-clamping, closing, and tripping states through the linkage transmission assembly, ensuring the stability of the transmission. At the same time, a handle centering assembly is set up, retaining the characteristic that the center of the traditional operating handle coincides with the center of the moving contact transmission shaft, resulting in a compact structure and small space occupation.

[0026] 3. The housing includes a bottom shell, a middle shell, and a top shell. The linkage transmission assembly is located on the bottom shell, the handle center assembly is located on the middle shell, and the operating handle is located on the top shell. This achieves a layered arrangement of the transmission structure and provides better limit and positioning support for the linkage transmission assembly and the handle center assembly.

[0027] 4. The housing is provided with a first sliding groove and a second sliding groove that are interconnected. Therefore, the second end of the first connecting rod can move in the first sliding groove, and the second end of the second connecting rod can slide in the second sliding groove. These are used to limit the rotation angle of the first connecting rod and the movement path of the second connecting rod, respectively, to ensure that the connecting rod transmission assembly can accurately complete the switching between the closed state, the re-clamping state and the tripping state, thereby improving the transmission accuracy of the connecting rod transmission assembly.

[0028] 5. A third elastic element is provided between the latch and the housing. Therefore, the third elastic element can keep the latch in the position where it can be engaged with the third link. The latch can only be separated from the third link by driving the latch to rotate through the release device, or by moving the third link to separate the latch from the third link. This helps to ensure the reliability and controllability of the latch engagement with the third link. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0038] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This embodiment is based on the technical solution of the present invention and provides detailed implementation methods and specific operating procedures; however, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0039] The operating mechanism 100 and the disconnecting switch 200 in some embodiments are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] like Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, an operating mechanism 100 is provided, including a housing 10, an operating handle 20, a linkage transmission assembly 30, and a trip unit 40;

[0041] The operating handle 20 is mounted on the housing 10. The linkage transmission assembly 30 includes a first link 31, a second link 32, a third link 33, a fourth link 34, a fifth link 35, and a latch 36, which is connected to the housing 10. The first link 31 is rotatably connected to the housing 10 and the second link 32, the third link 33 is rotatably connected to the second link 32 and the fourth link 34, the fifth link 35 is rotatably connected to the fourth link 34 and the housing 10, and the fifth link 35 is connected to the moving contact transmission shaft 61 of the switch. The first link 31 is connected to the operating handle 20, and the rotation axis of the fifth link 35 coincides with the central axis of the moving contact transmission shaft 61.

[0042] Furthermore, a first elastic element 37 is provided between the first link 31 and the housing 10, a second elastic element 38 is provided between the fifth link 35 and the housing 10, and a limiting block 113 is provided on the housing 10. When the second elastic element 38 is in its natural state, the fifth link 35 abuts against the limiting block 113.

[0043] At the same time, such as Figure 7 As shown, when the linkage drive assembly 30 is in the closed state, the latch 36 engages with the third link 33, the first elastic element 37 provides a counterclockwise rotational force to the first link 31, and the second elastic element 38 provides a clockwise rotational force to the fifth link 35; as Figure 6 As shown, when the linkage drive assembly 30 is in the re-clamping / opening state, the latch 36 is engaged with the third link 33, the first elastic element 37 provides a clockwise rotational force to the first link 31, and the second elastic element 38 is in its natural state; as Figure 5 As shown, when the linkage drive assembly 30 is in the disengaged state, the latch 36 is separated from the third link 33, the first elastic element 37 is in the natural state, and the second elastic element 38 is in the natural state.

[0044] Furthermore, the trip unit 40 can accept external signals and drive the latch 36 according to the external signals, so that the linkage transmission assembly 30 switches from the closed state or the re-clamping open state to the tripped state.

[0045] The aforementioned operating mechanism 100 has a linkage transmission assembly 30 on its housing 10, which connects the operating handle 20 and the moving contact transmission shaft 61. This allows rotation of the operating handle 20 to be transmitted to the moving contact transmission shaft 61 via the linkage transmission assembly 30, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the disconnector switch 200. When the latch 36 is engaged with the third link 33, rotating the operating handle 20 switches the linkage transmission assembly 30 from the engaged / disengaged state to the closed state. When the latch 36 is disengaged from the third link 33, rotating the operating handle 20 only disengages the linkage transmission assembly 30 from the disengaged state. When the linkage drive assembly 30 is in the closed state, it can be switched from the closed state to the tripped state by driving the latch 36 through the trip unit 40. Alternatively, the linkage drive assembly 30 can be switched from the closed state to the tripped state by rotating the operating handle 20. Therefore, the operating mechanism 100 is designed with a new type of linkage drive assembly 30, which has a simple structure, reduces the height and volume of the operating mechanism 100, and enables remote automatic tripping of the trip unit 40 and the latch 36, which is beneficial to improving the safety of the disconnect switch 200.

[0046] Specifically, in one embodiment, the first elastic element 37 and the second elastic element 38 can be torsion springs or springs. As long as the first connecting rod 31 and the fifth connecting rod 35 can rotate, the structure of the first elastic element 37 and the second elastic element 38 is not limited here. In this embodiment, torsion springs are preferred.

[0047] In this specific embodiment, the first end of the first connecting rod 31 is rotatably connected to the housing 10 about the first axis; the first end of the second connecting rod 32 is rotatably connected to the second end of the first connecting rod 31 about the second axis; the second end of the second connecting rod 32 is rotatably connected to the third connecting rod 33 about the third axis; one end of the fourth connecting rod 34 is rotatably connected to one end of the third connecting rod 33 about the fourth axis; the other end of the fourth connecting rod 34 is rotatably connected to one end of the fifth connecting rod 35 about the fifth axis; the other end of the fifth connecting rod 35 is rotatably connected to the housing 10 about the sixth axis; the first axis, the second axis, the third axis, the fourth axis, and the fifth axis are all parallel to the axis of the moving contact drive shaft 61, and the sixth axis coincides with the axis of the moving contact drive shaft 61.

[0048] Specifically, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the third link 33 is a triangular equivalent link. The second end of the second link 32 is connected to one apex of the third link 33. The fourth link 34 and the latch 36 are located on both sides of the second link 32 and are connected to the other two apexes of the third link 33. Therefore, when the latch 36 is engaged with the third link 33, the third link 33 rotates around the apex of its connection with the latch 36. When the latch 36 is disengaged from the third link 33, the third link 33 rotates around the apex of its connection with the second link 32.

[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and 8 As shown, in one embodiment, it also includes a handle centering assembly 50, which includes a first drive shaft 51 connected to the operating handle 20 and a second drive shaft 52 connected to the first connecting rod 31.

[0050] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 2, in one embodiment, the fifth link 35 is connected to the moving contact drive shaft 61, realizing the concentric installation of the on / off device 60, the link drive assembly 30 and the handle center assembly 50, which is beneficial to improving the transmission accuracy.

[0051] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the housing 10 includes a bottom shell 11, a middle shell 12 and a top shell 13 that are stacked in sequence. A first connecting rod 31 is rotatably connected to the bottom shell 11. A handle center assembly 50 is connected to the middle shell 12. An operating handle 20 is connected to the top shell 13. A first drive shaft 51 passes through the top shell 13 and is connected to the operating handle 20. A second drive shaft 52 passes through the middle shell 12 and is connected to the first connecting rod 31.

[0052] The housing 10 includes a bottom housing 11, a middle housing 12, and a top housing 13. The connecting rod transmission assembly 30 is disposed on the bottom housing 11, the handle center assembly 50 is disposed on the middle housing 12, and the operating handle 20 is disposed on the top housing 13. This achieves a layered arrangement of the transmission structure and provides better limiting and positioning support for the connecting rod transmission assembly 30 and the handle center assembly 50.

[0053] In this specific embodiment, a plurality of first support blocks are provided between the bottom shell 11 and the middle shell 12. One end of the first support block is connected to the bottom shell 11 and the other end is connected to the middle shell 12. A plurality of second support blocks are provided between the middle shell 12 and the top shell 13. One end of the second support block is connected to the middle shell 12 and the other end is connected to the top shell 13.

[0054] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the handle center unit adopts a linkage transmission structure or a gear transmission structure, and provides the operating handle 20 with a rotation angle of not less than 90°.

[0055] Furthermore, such as Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the handle center assembly 50 includes a first handle transmission rod 53, a second handle transmission rod 54, and a third handle transmission rod 55. The first handle transmission rod 53 is connected to a first transmission shaft 51, the second handle transmission rod 54 is rotatably connected to the first handle transmission rod 53 and the third handle transmission rod 55 respectively, and the third handle transmission rod 55 is connected to a second transmission shaft 52.

[0056] The aforementioned operating mechanism 100 realizes the re-clamping, closing, and tripping states through the linkage transmission assembly 30, ensuring the stability of the transmission. At the same time, a handle center-mounted assembly 50 is also provided, retaining the characteristic that the center of the traditional operating handle 20 coincides with the center of the moving contact transmission shaft 61, resulting in a compact structure and small space occupation.

[0057] Specifically, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the housing 10 is provided with a first sliding groove 111. The shape of the first sliding groove 111 is adapted to the movement path at the connection between the first connecting rod 31 and the second connecting rod 32. A first slider is provided at the connection between the first connecting rod 31 and the second connecting rod 32. The first slider slides in cooperation with the first sliding groove 111.

[0058] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and 8As shown, in one embodiment, the housing 10 is provided with a second slide groove 112, the first slide groove 111 and the second slide groove 112 are interconnected, the shape of the second slide groove 112 is adapted to the movement path at the connection between the second link 32 and the third link 33, and a second slider is provided at the connection between the second link 32 and the third link 33, the second slider is slidably engaged with the second slide groove 112.

[0059] The first slide groove 111 is an arc-shaped slide groove with the first end of the first connecting rod 31 as the center and the length of the first connecting rod 31 as the radius. The second slide groove 112 is an arc-shaped slide groove with the apex of the connection between the third connecting rod and the latch as the center and the distance between the apex of the connection between the third connecting rod and the second connecting rod and the apex of the connection between the third connecting rod and the latch as the radius.

[0060] In this specific embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, when the linkage drive assembly 30 is in the closed state, the second end of the first link 31 is located at the leftmost end of the first slide groove 111, and the second end of the second link 32 is located at the leftmost end of the second slide groove 112. The included angle between the first link 31 and the second link 32 is greater than 180°. Figure 6 As shown, when the linkage drive assembly 30 is in the re-clamping state, the second end of the first link 31 is located at the rightmost end of the first slide groove 111, and the second end of the second link 32 is located at the rightmost end of the second slide groove 112. The included angle between the first link 31 and the second link 32 is greater than 90° and less than 180°. Figure 5 As shown, when the linkage drive assembly 30 is in the disengaged state, the second end of the first link 31 is located in the middle of the first slide groove 111, and the second end of the second link 32 is located at the leftmost end of the second slide groove 112.

[0061] The housing 10 is provided with a first sliding groove 111 and a second sliding groove 112 that are interconnected. Therefore, the second end of the first connecting rod 31 can move in the first sliding groove 111, and the second end of the second connecting rod 32 can slide in the second sliding groove 112. These are used to limit the rotation angle of the first connecting rod 31 and the movement path of the second connecting rod 32, respectively, to ensure that the connecting rod transmission assembly 30 can accurately complete the switching between the closed state, the re-clamping state and the tripping state, and improve the transmission accuracy of the connecting rod transmission assembly 30.

[0062] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the latch 36 is rotatably connected to the housing 10, and a third elastic member 39 is provided between the latch 36 and the housing 10. When the third elastic member 39 is in its natural state, the latch 36 can be engaged with the third connecting rod 33.

[0063] A third elastic element 39 is provided between the latch 36 and the housing 10. Therefore, the third elastic element 39 can keep the latch 36 in a position that can be engaged with the third link 33. The latch 36 can only be driven to rotate by the release device 40, thereby realizing the separation of the latch 36 from the third link 33, or the latch 36 can be separated from the third link 33 by the movement of the third link 33. This helps to ensure the reliability and controllability of the engagement between the latch 36 and the third link 33.

[0064] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the third elastic element 39 can be a torsion spring or a spring. As long as the latch 36 can be rotated, the structure of the third elastic element 39 is not limited here. In this embodiment, a torsion spring is preferred.

[0065] The rotation axis between the latch 36 and the housing 10 is parallel to the central axis of the moving contact drive shaft 61.

[0066] Furthermore, the latch 36 is disposed on the bottom shell 11, and the bottom shell 11 is provided with a latch limiting block. When the third elastic member 39 is in its natural state, one end of the third elastic member 39 is connected to the latch 36, and the other end abuts against the latch limiting block. The latch limiting block is used to restrict the latch 36 from rotating clockwise. At the same time, the release device 40 can drive the latch 36 to rotate counterclockwise, so that the latch 36 is separated from the third connecting rod 33.

[0067] Furthermore, the latch 36 is provided with a latching protrusion, and the third link 33 is provided with a latching groove. The latching protrusion and the latching groove are latched together to restrict the third link 33 from rotating counterclockwise.

[0068] Specifically, such as Figure 4 and 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the trip unit 40 is provided with a telescopic push rod 41, and the push rod 41 is driven to extend and retract according to an external signal. When the push rod 41 extends, it abuts against the latch 36, providing the latch 36 with a force to rotate counterclockwise.

[0069] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, a disconnecting switch 200 is provided, including a switching device 60 and an operating mechanism 100, wherein the fifth link 35 of the operating mechanism 100 is connected to the moving contact drive shaft 61 of the switching device 60.

[0070] Multiple on / off devices 60 may be provided, and multiple on / off devices 60 are stacked and connected in sequence.
