The transmission assembly 10 is configured to transmit the driving force of the operating mechanism 20 to the first main shaft 31 and the second main shaft 32 of the switch body 30, so that the switch body 30 opens or closes. The transmission assembly 10 includes a drive gear 11, an upper transmission gear 12, a lower transmission gear 13, and a connecting rod 14. The drive gear 11 is rotatably mounted on the mechanism frame 22 of the operating mechanism 20 and is linked with the lower connecting rod 21. The upper transmission gear 12 and the lower transmission gear 13 are respectively linked on the first main shaft 31 and the second main shaft 32 of the switch body 30. The connecting rod 14 is connected between the upper transmission gear 12 and the lower transmission gear 13. The drive gear 11 meshes with the upper transmission gear 12. The drive gear 11 has a section of arc-shaped teeth 111, and the upper transmission gear 12 has transmission teeth 120 that mesh with the arc-shaped teeth 111. The meshing of the arc-shaped teeth with the transmission teeth of the upper transmission gear ensures the reliability of the transmission between the drive gear and the three transmission gears. The drive gear 11 has a drive arm 112 that is linked to the lower connecting rod 21 of the operating mechanism 20, and a drive shaft 113 connects the drive arm 112 and the lower connecting rod 21. The drive gear is connected to the lower connecting rod via the drive arm, ensuring the reliability of the transmission between the drive gear and the lower connecting rod. A rotating shaft 114 is provided on the drive gear 11, with both ends of the rotating shaft 114 rotatably connected to two side plates 221 of the mechanism frame 22. The drive gear is connected to the two side plates of the operating mechanism via the rotating shaft, facilitating the assembly of the drive gear with the mechanism frame and ensuring reliable rotation of the drive gear on the mechanism frame.

[0026] like Figure 3 and 4As shown, the upper transmission gear 12 and the lower transmission gear 13 are each provided with multiple positioning grooves 100 arranged in a circular array. The first spindle 31 and the second spindle 32 are each provided with multiple limiting blocks 300 that cooperate with the multiple positioning grooves 100. The multiple limiting blocks 300 are respectively engaged in the multiple positioning grooves 100, and constitute the linkage between the first spindle 31 and the second spindle 32 and the upper transmission gear 12 and the lower transmission gear 13, respectively. The first spindle and the second spindle are respectively engaged in the positioning grooves of the upper transmission gear and the lower transmission gear through the multiple limiting blocks, which facilitates the assembly of the first spindle and the second spindle with the upper transmission gear and the lower transmission gear, respectively, and ensures more reliable transmission between the first spindle and the second spindle and the upper transmission gear and the lower transmission gear, respectively.

The connecting rod adopts a double transmission plate structure design, resulting in higher strength and higher transmission reliability.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown in Figure 2, a disconnecting switch includes an operating mechanism 20 and at least one-pole switch body 30. A transmission mechanism connects the operating mechanism 20 and the switch body 30. The operating mechanism 20 drives the first main shaft 31 and the second main shaft 31 of the switch body 30 to operate, causing the switch body 30 to open or close. The multi-pole switch body 30 is stacked along the axial direction of the first main shaft 31 and the second main shaft 32. A protective frame 33 is provided inside the multi-pole switch body 30, surrounding the transmission assembly 10. A receiving cavity 3000 for placing the transmission assembly 10 is formed between the protective frame 33 and the outer shell 34 of the switch body 30. Placing the transmission assembly inside the receiving cavity avoids exposing the transmission assembly to the switch body, resulting in better protection and facilitating the assembly of the transmission assembly with the switch body, thus increasing assembly efficiency.

[0028] This utility model provides a transmission mechanism and a disconnecting switch. The transmission mechanism adopts a gear transmission structure design, which makes the transmission more stable and reliable, has a long service life, small size, and high transmission efficiency. It can also effectively shorten the distance between the transmission point of the operating mechanism and the first main shaft of the switch body, thus meeting the design requirements for miniaturization of the disconnecting switch.
