[0016] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0017] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a highly stable molded case circuit breaker includes a circuit breaker body 1. A front cover plate 2 is provided at the front end of the circuit breaker body 1, and the front cover plate 2 has a square hole. A circuit breaker switch 3 is provided on the circuit breaker body 1, and the circuit breaker switch 3 passes through the square hole in the front cover plate 2. A fixing plate 5 is provided on the circuit breaker body 1, and an elastic clamping piece 6 is provided on the fixing plate 5. An adjustable mounting structure 9 is connected to the elastic clamping piece 6, and a mounting slide plate 8 is connected to the adjustable mounting structure 9. Fastening screws 4 are provided on the circuit breaker body 1. The mounting slide plate 8 has oblong countersunk holes 10, and the oblong countersunk holes 10 are symmetrically arranged on the mounting slide plate 8. Through holes 7 are provided on the fixing plate 5 and the elastic clamping piece 6, and the fixing plate 5 and the elastic clamping piece 6 are symmetrically distributed on the circuit breaker body 1.

[0018] During the installation of the molded case circuit breaker, the mounting plate 8 is placed in the mounting position, and screws are inserted into the countersunk holes 10 to connect with the mounting position, thereby fixing the mounting plate 8. The adjustable mounting structure 9 is then placed on the mounting plate 8. The fixing plate 5 and the elastic clamping piece 6 on the circuit breaker body 1 are connected to the connecting structure in the adjustable mounting structure 9 and secured with nuts, thus placing the circuit breaker body 1 onto the adjustable mounting structure 9. After the circuit breaker is installed, the cable is connected to the fastening screw 4, connecting the circuit breaker body 1 to the circuit for use. During use, the circuit breaker switch 3, which passes through the hole above the front cover plate 2, is in the open state, and the circuit breaker is in normal operation. When an overload or short circuit occurs, the circuit breaker short-circuits, and the circuit breaker switch 3 trips to the closed state, effectively protecting the relevant electrical components and circuits.

[0019] During the operation of the circuit breaker, the elasticity of the elastic retaining plate 6 ensures that the nut is subjected to elastic force, preventing it from loosening even under vibration and guaranteeing operational stability. When needed, the adjustable mounting structure 9 can be used to adjust the circuit breaker position, providing greater flexibility and stability in its use.

[0020] According to the above implementation scheme, the adjustable mounting structure 9 includes a sliding mounting base 901, a fixing block 902, and mounting screws 903. The sliding mounting base 901 is provided with a sliding groove, and the sliding mounting base 901 is mounted on the mounting slide plate 8 through the sliding groove. The two fixing blocks 902 are fixed to the ends of the mounting slide plate 8 by mounting screws 903. The adjustable mounting structure 9 also includes an adjusting screw 904, an adjusting wheel 905, a plug-in post 906, and a connecting screw 907. The adjusting screw 904 is disposed on the fixing block 902, and the end of the adjusting screw 904 is fixedly connected to the adjusting wheel 905. The adjusting screw 904 passes through the sliding mounting base 901 and is threadedly connected to the sliding mounting base 901. The plug-in post 906 is fixedly connected to the connecting screw 907, and the plug-in post 906 is mounted on the sliding mounting base 901.

[0021] During the installation of the adjustable mounting structure 9, the adjusting screw 904 is connected to the sliding mounting base 901. Fixing blocks 902 are located at both ends of the adjusting screw 904. The sliding mounting base 901 is placed on the mounting slide plate 8, with the fixing blocks 902 positioned at both ends of the mounting slide plate 8. The fixing blocks 902 are then fixed to the mounting slide plate 8 using mounting screws 903, thus completing the fixed connection between the adjustable mounting structure 9 and the mounting slide plate 8. After the adjustable mounting structure 9 is installed, the circuit breaker is installed. The fixing plate 5 and the elastic clamping piece 6 are fitted onto the plug-in post 906 through the through hole 7. The connecting screw 907 passes through the fixing plate 5, and a nut is placed on the connecting screw 907 to compress the elastic clamping piece 6, thereby fixing the circuit breaker body 1. After connecting the cables, it is ready for use.

[0022] When it is necessary to adjust the position of the circuit breaker, the adjusting screw 904 on the fixed block 902 is rotated by the adjusting wheel 905. Driven by the adjusting screw 904, the sliding mounting base 901 moves along the mounting plate 8 through the sliding groove. This moves the circuit breaker body 1 through the plug post 906, connecting screw 907, nut, elastic clamping piece 6, and fixed plate 5, thereby changing the position of the circuit breaker and improving its stability and flexibility. After adjustment, the sliding mounting base 901 and the adjusting screw 904 have a self-locking effect, making the circuit breaker more stable in use.

[0023] It should be noted that, through the fixed plate 5, elastic clamping piece 6, mounting slide plate 8, and adjustable mounting structure 9, the circuit breaker body 1 is installed onto the adjustable mounting structure 9 by using the elastic clamping piece 6 and the fixed plate 5 in conjunction with the nut. After installation, the elastic clamping piece 6 applies an elastic force to ensure that the circuit breaker body 1 has good stability during use, which can prevent the nut from loosening and ensure the normal use of the circuit breaker. The sliding mounting seat 901 in the adjustable mounting structure 9 is set on the mounting slide plate 8 and is used in conjunction with the fixed block 902 and the adjusting screw 904. The position of the sliding mounting seat 901 can be adjusted, thereby changing the position of the circuit breaker body 1, improving the flexibility and adaptability of use. The adjusting screw 904 and the sliding mounting seat 901 have a self-locking effect, ensuring the stability after adjustment.

[0024] The foregoing describes the working principle, features, and beneficial effects of this utility model. Those skilled in the art will understand from the foregoing that it does not limit the utility model. The embodiments and description above illustrate the basic principles and features of this utility model. Various changes and improvements can be made to this utility model while remaining consistent with its concept, and all such improvements should fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
