DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] The utility model will be further described below in combination with the drawings and examples.
[0032] In the description of the utility model, it is understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the indicated device or element must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, therefore it cannot be understood as a limitation on the utility model.
[0033] Example one
[0034] Please refer to the attached Figure 1 to the attached Figure 5The utility model discloses a kind of loop structures, applied to switch device, including current-carrying loop 1 and the parallelly connected setting breaking circuit 2 of current-carrying loop 1, the current-carrying contact 3 of switch device is set on current-carrying loop 1, breaking contact 4 for breaking current is set on breaking circuit 2, and breaking contact 4 is configured to be broken in switch device breaking process behind current-carrying contact 3, to make the current of loop by breaking contact 4 breaking operation.It can be understood that, in the embodiment, on the basis of the original current-carrying loop 1 of switch device, breaking circuit 2 is additionally arranged in parallel with current-carrying loop 1, and breaking contact 4 is arranged on breaking circuit 2, when using, the current-carrying contact 3 of current-carrying loop 1 is no longer broken current, but by breaking contact 4 on breaking circuit 2 to the current in loop structure is disconnected, therefore, the current-carrying contact 3 of current-carrying loop 1 will not produce arc phenomenon, when breaking current, only breaking contact 4 of breaking circuit 2 produces arc, can effectively improve the ultimate breaking capacity of current-carrying contact to make switch device can better satisfy 2000V even higher voltage requirement.And, because current-carrying loop does not arc, therefore, the volume of silver dot of current-carrying contact 3 can be greatly reduced, effectively save silver amount, be favorable to reducing production cost.
[0035] Please refer to the attached drawings Figure 5 In one preferred embodiment, the current-carrying contact 3 and the breaking contact 4 are configured to be arranged in two installation spaces that are mutually isolated in at least the arc area, and the non-arc areas of the two installation spaces can be mutually isolated or interconnected or partially interconnected. Preferably, in the current-carrying loop 1 and the breaking circuit 2, only the arc chamber 5 can be arranged corresponding to the breaking circuit 2, and the breaking contact 4 is arranged in the arc chamber 5 (or arc extinguishing system). Since the current-carrying contact 3 and the breaking contact 4 are arranged in two completely isolated installation spaces, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas, arc, high-temperature particles, etc. in the installation space of the breaking contact 4 can be effectively prevented from entering the installation space of the current-carrying contact 3, the arc in the current-carrying loop is avoided from reigniting, and the arc time is effectively shortened and the arc energy is reduced. However, those skilled in the art should understand that, in other embodiments, the arc chamber structure corresponding to the current-carrying contact 3 can also be arranged in the current-carrying loop 1 as needed.
[0036] Please refer to the attached drawings Figure 1 to the attached drawings Figure 4In one preferred embodiment, the breaking circuit 2 is connected in series with a resistance limiting current device 6 for limiting the current in the breaking circuit 2. By connecting the resistance limiting current device 6, the arc voltage between the breaking circuit and the breaking contact 4 is effectively increased, and the current is limited, which is conducive to extinguishing AC and DC arcs with a voltage of 2000V or higher. In one preferred embodiment, the resistance of the breaking circuit is preferably 10 times or more than the resistance of the current-carrying circuit by using a resistance or a connection plate structure with a high resistance. In this embodiment, when the resistance limiting current device 6 is a connection plate structure, it is made of a material with a large resistance rate, such as constantan. The connection plate structure has a small cross section and a certain length, which not only conducts the breaking circuit but also provides a large resistance in the breaking circuit, thereby limiting the current in the breaking circuit.
[0037] Please refer to the accompanying drawings Figure 5 In one preferred embodiment, the breaking contact 4 has a single breaking point structure.
[0038] Please refer to the accompanying drawings Figure 5 In one preferred embodiment, the current-carrying contact 3 and the breaking contact 4 are configured to be connected to the driving shaft 9 of the switch electric appliance through the current-carrying contact linkage mechanism 7 and the breaking contact linkage mechanism 8, respectively. The current-carrying contact 3 is controlled to act by the current-carrying contact linkage mechanism 7 under the driving of the driving shaft 9, thereby switching the closed state and the breaking state of the current-carrying contact 3. The breaking contact 4 is controlled to act by the breaking contact linkage mechanism 8 under the driving of the driving shaft 9, thereby switching the closed state and the breaking state of the breaking contact 4. During the opening of the switch electric appliance, the breaking contact 4 is configured to break after the current-carrying contact 3, so that the current in the circuit is broken by the breaking contact 4. It can be understood that since the breaking contact 4 is configured to break after the current-carrying contact 3, when the switch electric appliance is opened, the current-carrying contact 3 is first disconnected, and the current flows through the breaking circuit 2. When the driving shaft 9 of the switch electric appliance rotates by a certain angle, the breaking contact 4 is then disconnected, thereby breaking the current in the circuit by the breaking contact 4. Therefore, when the switch electric appliance is opened, no arc is generated at the current-carrying contact 3, which effectively improves the limit breaking capacity of the current-carrying circuit 1, so that the switch electric appliance can better meet the voltage requirement of 2000V or higher.
[0039] Please refer to the accompanying drawings Figure 5In one preferred embodiment, the current-carrying contact 3 comprises a current-carrying moving contact part 31 and a current-carrying stationary contact part 32 corresponding to the current-carrying moving contact part 31, the breaking contact 4 comprises a breaking moving contact part 41 and a breaking stationary contact part 42 corresponding to the breaking moving contact part 41, and the current-carrying contact linkage mechanism 7 comprises a first cantilever 71 fixedly connected to the driving shaft 9, and the free end of the first cantilever 71 is connected to the current-carrying moving contact part 31 through a first connecting rod 72, and the breaking contact linkage mechanism 8 comprises a second cantilever 81 fixedly connected to the driving shaft 9, and the free end of the second cantilever 81 is connected to the breaking moving contact part 41 through a second connecting rod 82. In this embodiment, in order to realize that the breaking contact 4 lags behind the current-carrying contact 3 during the breaking of the switch device, the length, position, shaft position, etc. of the second cantilever 81 and the second connecting rod 82 corresponding to the breaking circuit 2 can be configured to be different from the corresponding structures of the current-carrying circuit 1, so that the rotation angle and rotation speed of the breaking moving contact part 41 and the current-carrying moving contact part 31 are different, thereby realizing that the breaking contact 4 lags behind the current-carrying contact 3 during the breaking of the switch device. However, those skilled in the art should understand that, in other embodiments, in order to realize that the breaking contact 4 lags behind the current-carrying contact 3 during the breaking of the switch device, other conventional methods can also be used, and the specific embodiments disclosed in this embodiment are not limited, for example, the breaking gap of the current-carrying contact 3 can be configured to be larger than the breaking gap of the breaking contact 4, and at least the breaking contact 4 is provided with a breaking contact closing overtravel structure. In this way, during the closing of the switch device, after the driving shaft 9 rotates by a certain angle, the breaking contact 4 will close first due to the small breaking gap, and then the driving shaft 9 continues to rotate, and the breaking contact 4 enters the overtravel action range until the current-carrying contact 3 is closed. Conversely, during the breaking of the switch device, the driving shaft 9 rotates reversely, the current-carrying contact 3 is disconnected first, and the breaking contact 4 is still in the overtravel action range, so that the breaking contact 4 remains closed when the current-carrying contact 3 is disconnected. In this way, the effect that the breaking contact 4 lags behind the current-carrying contact 3 during the breaking of the switch device is achieved.
[0040] Please refer to the accompanying drawings Figure 5 In one preferred embodiment, during the closing of the switch device, the breaking contact 4 is configured to close first than the current-carrying contact 3, and when the closing operation of the switch device is completed, the current-carrying contact 3 and the breaking contact 4 are both in a closed state.
