[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 A circuit breaker for easy wiring maintenance of electrical equipment in hydropower stations also includes a quick-connect assembly. The quick-connect assembly includes two sets of housings 3, which are fixedly connected to the top of the front end of the circuit breaker housing 1. A pull rod 4 is provided at the front end of the housing 3, and a crossbar 5 is provided at the front end inside the housing 3. A first rotating shaft plate 6 is movably connected to the left and right sides of the rear end of the crossbar 5. A second rotating shaft plate 7 is movably connected to the rear end of the first rotating shaft plate 6. Two sets of third rotating shaft plates 8 are provided on the side of the second rotating shaft plate 7 near the pull rod 4. Two sets of arc-shaped copper connecting plates 9 are provided at the bottom of the housing 3. An arc-shaped aluminum sheet is fixedly connected to the side of the arc-shaped copper connecting plate 9 near the pull rod 4. 10. The pull rod 4 has multiple sets of round holes 11 inside, and a round rod 12 is inserted into the round hole 11. A pull ring 13 is fixedly connected to the side of the round rod 12 away from the pull rod 4. The pull rod 4 is fixedly connected to the crossbar 5. The first rotating shaft plate 6 is not connected to the housing 3. The second rotating shaft plate 7 and the third rotating shaft plate 8 are movably connected to the housing 3. The pull rod 4 passes through the interior of the housing 3. The arc-shaped copper connecting plate 9 is movably connected to the bottom of the second rotating shaft plate 7 and the third rotating shaft plate 8. The shape and size of the round rod 12 on the outside are consistent with the shape and size of the round hole 11 on the inside. The round rod 12 can be pulled left and right along the inside of the round hole 11. The wiring can be completed simply by pulling it out, which is convenient and quick.

[0025] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in use, the round rod 12 is removed from the round hole 11. Then, the wire is inserted downwards from the top of the circuit breaker housing 1 into the circuit breaker housing 1 and placed between the two arc-shaped aluminum plates 10. Then, the pull rod 4 is pulled outwards, which drives the first rotating shaft plate 6 to move forward through the crossbar 5. The first rotating shaft plate 6 drives the second rotating shaft plate 7 to move forward, and the second rotating shaft plate 7 drives the arc-shaped copper connecting plate 9 and the third rotating shaft plate 8 to move forward. While pulling, the arc-shaped copper connecting plates 9 move closer to each other until they are in contact, clamping the wire tightly. At this time, the arc-shaped copper connecting plate 9, the arc-shaped aluminum plate 10 and the wire are in close contact. At the same time, the arc-shaped copper connecting plate 9 and the arc-shaped aluminum plate 10 are connected to the terminal block, that is, the wire is connected to the terminal block. After clamping, the round rod 12 is inserted into the pull ring 13 to fix it, which can maintain the clamped state and quickly clamp the wire for quick connection.

[0026] Adhesive 14 is fixedly connected to the four corners of the rear end of the circuit breaker housing 1. Two sets of long slots 15 are opened in the middle of the rear end of the circuit breaker housing 1. A back plate 16 is inserted into the rear end of the circuit breaker housing 1. An L-shaped hook 17 is fixedly connected to the rear end of the back plate 16. The shape and size of the L-shaped hook 17 are consistent with the shape and size of the inside of the long slot 15. The long slot 15 can be pulled up and down along the outside of the L-shaped hook 17. The adhesive 14 is bonded to the back plate 16, which facilitates quick disassembly and installation.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, during use, circuit breaker maintenance requires disassembling and inspecting each screw individually, which is labor-intensive. By setting up a back plate 16, during installation, only the back plate 16 needs to be connected to the base plate with screws. Then, the circuit breaker housing 1 can be directly inserted into the outside of the L-shaped hook 17 through the long slot 15 to connect with the back plate 16. At the same time, the adhesive 14 can be pressed backward to fit tightly with the back plate 16. If disassembly and inspection are required, simply tear the circuit breaker housing 1 from the front end of the back plate 16 and pull it upward to separate the circuit breaker housing 1 from the back plate 16, allowing for quick installation and disassembly.

[0028] An expansion rubber strip 18 is fixedly connected to the periphery of the long groove 15, a waterproof membrane 19 is fixedly connected to the front end of the back plate 16, an outer box 20 is fixedly connected to the left side of the bottom front end of the circuit breaker housing 1, a miniature current sensor 21 is fixedly connected inside the outer box 20, and an alarm light 22 is fixedly connected to the right side of the bottom front end of the circuit breaker housing 1. The expansion rubber strip 18 expands when it comes into contact with water, and the miniature current sensor 21 is electrically connected to the alarm light 22, resulting in high waterproof and electrical safety performance.

[0029] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the circuit breaker involves electrical equipment and requires high waterproof performance. By setting up an expansion rubber strip 18, if it encounters a humid environment, the expansion rubber strip 18 expands when it comes into contact with water, which can prevent water from entering the expansion rubber strip 18 and ensure the waterproof safety of the interface. Subsequently, the setting of the anti-seepage membrane 19 prevents water from entering at the connection between the rear end of the circuit breaker housing 1 and the back plate 16. Sometimes when the circuit breaker malfunctions, even if the switch 2 is closed, current still flows. After setting up the miniature current sensor 21, the internal and external current of the circuit breaker can be viewed in real time. When there is power, the alarm light 22 is always on, which can be used to visually view the current situation and prevent staff from accidentally touching it. It has high safety performance, is waterproof and prevents accidental touch.

[0030] Working principle: In use, firstly, the round rod 12 is removed from the round hole 11. Then, the wire is inserted downwards from the top of the circuit breaker housing 1 into the circuit breaker housing 1, placed between the two arc-shaped aluminum plates 10. Next, the pull rod 4 is pulled outwards, causing the first rotating shaft plate 6 to move forward via the crossbar 5. The first rotating shaft plate 6 then moves the second rotating shaft plate 7 forward, which in turn moves the arc-shaped copper connecting plate 9 and the third rotating shaft plate 8 forward. Simultaneously, the arc-shaped copper connecting plate... 9. Bring the wires together until the arc-shaped copper connecting plates 9 and 10 are in contact, clamping the wires tightly. At this point, the arc-shaped copper connecting plates 9 and 10 are in close contact with the wires, and simultaneously connected to the terminals, i.e., the wires are connected to the terminals. After clamping, insert the round rod 12 into the pull ring 13 to fix it, thus maintaining the clamped state. During use, circuit breaker maintenance requires disassembling and inspecting each screw individually, wasting manpower. By setting up the back plate 16, only the back plate 16 needs to be installed during installation. 6. Connect the circuit breaker housing 1 to the base plate with screws. Then, insert the circuit breaker housing 1 directly into the L-shaped hook 17 through the long slot 15 to connect it to the back plate 16. At the same time, press the adhesive 14 backward to make it fit tightly with the back plate 16. If disassembly and inspection are required, simply tear the circuit breaker housing 1 from the front end of the back plate 16 and pull it upward to separate the circuit breaker housing 1 from the back plate 16. When in use, the circuit breaker involves electrical equipment and requires high waterproof performance. By setting an expansion rubber strip 18, if it encounters a humid environment, the expansion rubber strip 18 will expand when it comes into contact with water, which can prevent water from entering the expansion rubber strip 18 and ensure the waterproof safety of the interface. Subsequently, the setting of the anti-seepage membrane 19 prevents water from entering at the connection between the rear end of the circuit breaker housing 1 and the back plate 16. Sometimes when the circuit breaker malfunctions, even if the switch 2 is closed, current will still flow. After setting a miniature current sensor 21, the internal and external current of the circuit breaker can be viewed in real time. When there is power, the alarm light 22 is always on, which can be used to visually view the current situation and prevent personnel from accidentally touching it.

[0031] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
