Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of high-voltage electrical equipment safety technology, and in particular to a high-voltage switch anti-misoperation interlocking mechanism and unlocking component. Background Technology
[0002] High-voltage electrical equipment refers to electrical equipment with a rated voltage exceeding 1000V, playing a crucial role in power systems. Transformers: Used to change the magnitude of AC voltage, enabling the transmission and distribution of electrical energy. There are various types of transformers, such as oil-immersed transformers and dry-type transformers, whose main parameters include rated capacity, rated voltage, and turns ratio. Circuit breakers: Capable of closing, carrying, and interrupting the current of operating circuits under normal or fault conditions. Circuit breakers have strong arc-extinguishing capabilities and breaking capacity, protecting circuits and equipment from damage caused by overloads, short circuits, and other faults. Common types of circuit breakers include vacuum circuit breakers and sulfur hexafluoride circuit breakers. Disconnect switches: Primarily used to isolate power sources, separating high-voltage equipment from energized parts to ensure the safety of maintenance personnel. Instrument transformers: Include current transformers and voltage transformers. Current transformers convert large currents into smaller currents for use by measurement and protection devices; voltage transformers convert high voltages into low voltages, providing signals for measurement, metering, and protection. Surge arresters are used to protect electrical equipment from damage caused by lightning overvoltages and operational overvoltages. When the voltage exceeds a certain value, the surge arrester will conduct, diverting the overvoltage to the ground. High-voltage electrical equipment utilizes insulating media to block current, conducts high-voltage electrical energy through conductors, and combines this with arc-extinguishing devices to control the current flow, thus achieving the transmission, distribution, and protection of electrical energy. The insulating media ensures that no breakdown occurs between the high potential and the ground potential, the conductive system uses large-section conductors to reduce contact resistance, and the arc-extinguishing mechanism is used to extinguish the electric arc.
[0003] In existing technologies, high-voltage electrical equipment requires the use of high-voltage switches. Misoperation of existing high-voltage switches may lead to arcing injuries, equipment damage, or even power grid accidents. At the same time, existing electromagnetic interlocks rely on secondary circuit power supplies and fail when power is cut off. Therefore, a high-voltage switch anti-misoperation interlocking mechanism and unlocking components are needed. Utility Model Content

[0030] The locking mechanism includes a protective shell 4, the left side of which is fixedly connected to the surface of the mounting base 2. A positioning pin 5 is movably connected to the left side inside the protective shell 4. The left side of the positioning pin 5 passes through the mounting base 2 and extends into the interior of the high-voltage switch handle 1. A slot 6 is provided on the surface of the high-voltage switch handle 1 to cooperate with the positioning pin 5. A movable plate 7 is fixedly connected to the right side of the surface of the positioning pin 5, which can effectively lock the high-voltage switch handle 1. The fixed connection between the protective shell 4 and the mounting base 2 ensures the stability of the structure. The cooperation between the positioning pin 5 and the slot 6 prevents the high-voltage switch handle 1 from being operated arbitrarily without authorization, thus enhancing the safety of the equipment. The movable plate 7 facilitates the operation of the positioning pin 5 by the staff, thereby realizing the locking and unlocking of the high-voltage switch handle 1 and improving the convenience of operation.

A return spring 9 is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 8. The return spring 9 is located between the moving plate 7 and the protective shell 4, which can ensure the stability and accuracy of the moving plate 7 during the movement. The movable connection between the guide rod 8 and the positioning pin 5 provides a clear movement path for the moving plate 7, effectively preventing the moving plate 7 from deviating or shaking. The return spring 9 is located between the moving plate 7 and the protective shell 4, and can quickly return to the initial position after the moving plate 7 is subjected to external force.

[0033] An unlocking component for a high-voltage switch anti-misoperation interlocking mechanism includes a retaining ring 13. A drive shaft 14 is fixedly connected inside the retaining ring 13, and an auger 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the drive shaft 14.

The arrow mark on the handle 19 and the text markings on the protective shell 4 work together to allow operators to clearly identify the rotation direction and status of the drive shaft 14, facilitating operation and control, and improving work efficiency and accuracy.
[0035] Working Principle: The working principle of this utility model is to effectively lock and unlock the high-voltage switch handle 1 through a locking mechanism. When the high-voltage switch needs to be operated, it is first unlocked through the unlocking component. The rotating handle 19 of the unlocking component is rotated, driving the transmission shaft 14 and the auger 15 to rotate together. The design of the auger 15 allows it to generate friction with the moving plate 7, thereby driving the moving plate 7 to move to the right. When the moving plate 7 moves to the right, it will drive the positioning pin 5 fixedly connected to it to move together. The positioning pin 5 disengages from the slot 6 on the surface of the high-voltage switch handle 1, thereby unlocking the high-voltage switch handle 1. During the process of the moving plate 7 moving to the right, the return spring 9 is compressed, providing a leftward return force to the moving plate 7. The limit rod 11 moves in the slide groove 12 inside the positioning pin 5, limiting and stabilizing the moving plate 7 to prevent it from shifting or shaking. When the moving plate 7 moves to the far right... The semi-circular baffle 16, which is fixedly connected to the right side of the auger 15, will contact the moving plate 7, thus limiting its movement. At this time, the high-voltage switch handle 1 is fully unlocked. During the unlocking process, the bearing seat 17 and the reinforcing sleeve 18 enhance the stability and robustness of the drive shaft 14, effectively preventing the drive shaft 14 from shaking and displacing during operation. The arrow markings on the handle 19 and the text markings on the protective shell 4 work together to allow the operator to clearly identify the rotation direction and status of the drive shaft 14, facilitating operation and control. When it is necessary to lock the high-voltage switch handle 1, simply rotate the handle 19 in the opposite direction, and the auger 15 will drive the moving plate 7 to move to the left. The positioning pin 5 will re-engage in the slot 6 on the surface of the high-voltage switch handle 1, thereby locking the high-voltage switch handle 1. The return spring 9 gradually returns to its initial state during the movement of the moving plate 7 to the left, providing a restoring force for the next unlocking.
