[0035] The waterproof protection mechanism 3 includes a fixing pad 31. The outer wall of the fixing pad 31 has an anti-detachment groove 32. A guide block 33 is slidably connected to the fixing pad 31 via the anti-detachment groove 32. A movable threaded post 34 is fixed to one side of the guide block 33. A limit nut 36 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the movable threaded post 34. A limit pad 35 is fixed to the outer side of the fixing pad 31. A rotating shaft 6 is connected to the inside of the fixing pad 31 via a bearing. Multiple positioning holes 37 are provided on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 6. A limit plate 38 is fixed to the outer side of the rotating shaft 6. A waterproof protection device is fixed to one end of the rotating shaft 6. Cover 5, fixing pad 31 and circuit breaker body 1 are fixedly connected. The outer side of guide moving block 33 is provided with anti-slip texture, which makes it easy for the user to move guide moving block 33. The inside of limit pad 35 is provided with through hole. The size of the through hole is adapted to the size of moving threaded column 34, so that moving threaded column 34 can pass through limit pad 35. The size of positioning hole 37 is adapted to the size of moving threaded column 34. The corresponding surface of limit plate 38 is attached to the outer side of fixing pad 31. After one end of moving threaded column 34 is movably inserted into the corresponding positioning hole 37, the angle of rotation shaft 6 can be locked.

[0036] The locking mechanism 4 includes a guide connecting sleeve 41, a support connecting frame 42 fixed to one end of the guide connecting sleeve 41, a mounting bracket 43 fixed to the top of the support connecting frame 42, a rotating plate 44 rotatably connected to the bottom of the mounting bracket 43 via a rotating shaft, a positioning block 45 fixed to one side of the rotating plate 44, a transmission frame 46 rotatably connected to one side of the rotating plate 44 via a rotating shaft, a movable bracket 47 rotatably connected to one end of the transmission frame 46 via a rotating shaft, an anti-detachment sliding block 48 fixed to the top of the movable bracket 47, a connecting handle 49 installed on the top of the anti-detachment sliding block 48, the guide connecting sleeve 41 and the circuit breaker body 1 are fixedly connected, the guide connecting sleeve 41 has a limiting groove inside to accommodate the movement of the connecting handle 49 and the anti-detachment sliding block 48, the waterproof protective cover 5 has a positioning groove inside, the size of which is adapted to the size of the positioning block 45.

When it is necessary to open the waterproof protective cover 5 for operation or maintenance for a long time, after opening the waterproof protective cover 5, the waterproof protective cover 5 drives the rotating shaft 6 to rotate. The rotating shaft 6 has multiple positioning holes 37 inside. Then, the guide moving block 33 is pushed horizontally, so that one side of the guide moving block 33 slides in the anti-disengagement groove 32, and one end of the moving threaded column 34 is movably inserted into the positioning hole 37, completing the locking of the angle of the rotating shaft 6. This achieves the purpose of easy suspension after the waterproof protective cover 5 is opened. The suspension design makes the waterproof protective cover easy to stop. The cover 5 can be fixed at a specific angle without additional manual support, making it convenient for maintenance personnel to quickly open and close the waterproof protective cover 5 for operation or inspection, reducing manual intervention costs. This device is equipped with a locking mechanism 4. When the waterproof protective cover 5 obstructs and protects the outside of the circuit breaker body 1 and needs to be locked, the connecting handle 49 can be pushed to drive the anti-disengagement sliding block 48 to slide inside the guide connecting sleeve 41, allowing the moving bracket 47 to push the transmission frame 46, thereby driving the rotating plate 44 to rotate. The positioning block 45 on one side of the rotating plate 44 is then engaged in the preset positioning groove of the waterproof protective cover 5, locking the waterproof protective cover 5 through the positioning block 45, ensuring the stability of the closed structure of the waterproof protective cover 5, ensuring the stable protection effect, and the locking and unlocking operations are simple.
