[0002] In power systems, SF6 gas-insulated metal-enclosed switchgear, used in medium-voltage power distribution, typically employs two main configuration schemes: one is an integrated three-position disconnector switch scheme, which uses a single operating mechanism to achieve interlocking control of line switching and grounding functions; the other is a combination of a three-position disconnector switch and a circuit breaker, adding a dedicated circuit breaker module to the former to achieve fault current interruption. Both of these switchgear schemes suffer from inconvenient installation and high cost. Utility Model Content

[0003] To help solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides a modular disconnecting switch and a gas-insulated switchgear.

[0006] Each transmission mechanism includes two first connecting plates with one side sleeved on the transmission shaft. The first connecting plates rotate together with the transmission shaft. The other side of the two first connecting plates is respectively hinged to one side of two second connecting plates. The other side of the two second connecting plates is connected to a pad through a rotating shaft. The middle of the pad is connected to a moving contact through a third connecting plate. The second connecting plates and the pad are located above the contact seat so that the free end of the moving contact passes through the space enclosed by the two second connecting plates and the pad.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The present application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The structure and principle of the present application are very clear to those skilled in the art. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.

Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the gas-insulated switchgear of this application. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the drive shaft control component of this application.

[0026] Combination Figures 1 to 4 It is understood that the modular disconnect switch 16 of this application includes a drive shaft 9, a plurality of moving contacts 4 and a transmission mechanism that cooperates with the moving contacts 4. One end of the moving contact 4 is hinged to the contact seat 11, and the other end is a free end. Each transmission mechanism includes two first connecting plates 8 with one side sleeved on the drive shaft 9. The first connecting plates 8 rotate together with the drive shaft 9. The other side of the two first connecting plates 8 is respectively hinged to one side of two second connecting plates 2. The other side of the two second connecting plates 2 is connected to the pad 3 through a rotating shaft. The middle of the pad 3 is connected to the moving contact 4 through a third connecting plate 19. The second connecting plates 2 and the pad 3 are located above the contact seat 11 so that the free end of the moving contact 4 passes through the space enclosed by the two second connecting plates 2 and the pad 3.

[0027] The drive shaft 9 drives the first connecting plate 8 to rotate. Through the linkage of the second connecting plate 2 and the third connecting plate 19, the rotational motion is converted into the linear or arc motion of the moving contact 4, ensuring precise contact / separation between the free end of the moving contact 4 and the stationary contact 15, reducing contact resistance and arcing. The moving contact 4 is hinged to the contact seat 11, facilitating independent replacement or maintenance and reducing maintenance costs. The free end of the moving contact 4 passes through the space enclosed by the second connecting plate 2 and the pad 3, resulting in a compact structure and reduced equipment size.

[0028] The modular disconnect switch 16 includes a disconnect switch frame, which includes disconnect switch bracket side plates (left disconnect switch bracket 10 and right disconnect switch bracket 5) on the left and right sides, and disconnect switch bracket bent plates (front disconnect switch bracket 6 and rear disconnect switch bracket 6, not shown in the figure) on the front and rear sides. A contact seat 11 is installed inside the rear side of the disconnect switch frame. Square holes that mate with the outer contour of the drive shaft 9 are provided on one side of the first connecting plate 8 and on the disconnect switch bracket side plates (left disconnect switch bracket 10 / right disconnect switch bracket 5). The drive shaft 9 passes through all the square holes and is installed inside the front side of the disconnect switch frame. A disconnect switch insulator support plate is installed inside the rear side of the disconnect switch frame, and an insulator 12 is installed on the disconnect switch insulator support plate, with the insulator 12 connected to the contact seat 11.

[0029] The side plates of the disconnector bracket include the left side plate 10 and the right side plate 5 of the disconnector bracket. The bent plates of the disconnector bracket include the front bent plate 6 and the rear bent plate (not shown in the figure). The front bent plate 7 and the rear bent plate 1 of the three-station mechanism are also provided on the front and rear sides respectively.

[0030] The square hole mates with the outer contour of the drive shaft 9 to eliminate axial movement and ensure transmission accuracy. The contact seat 11 is pre-installed inside the rear of the frame, enabling modular assembly. On-site installation only requires fixing the frame, which can shorten installation time.

[0031] A drive shaft control component 18 is fitted onto one end of the drive shaft 9 extending from the side plate of the disconnector bracket (left side plate 10 of the disconnector bracket / right side plate 5 of the disconnector bracket). One end of the mechanism crank arm 17 is connected to the three-position switch mechanism 13, and the other end is movably connected to the drive shaft control component 18. The drive shaft control component 18 includes a first connecting plate 20 rotatably connected to the mechanism crank arm 17 and a second connecting plate fixed to the first connecting plate 20.

[0032] The lower side of the internal frame of the disconnecting switch is provided with a grounding busbar support plate, and a grounding busbar is provided on the grounding busbar support plate for grounding the induced current. The upper side of the modular disconnecting switch 16 is provided with a main busbar 14, and the lower part of the main busbar 14 is provided with a stationary contact 15.

[0033] This application also provides a gas-insulated switchgear including the aforementioned modular disconnector 16. The switchgear includes a main busbar 14, the modular disconnector 16, and a three-position switch mechanism 13. The main busbar 14 is located on the upper side of the switchgear, with both ends mounted on the side plates of the switchgear. A stationary contact 15 is provided at the lower part of the main busbar 14. The modular disconnector 16 is located below the main busbar 14, and controls the free end of the moving contact 4 to contact and disengage from the stationary contact 15. The three-position switch mechanism 13 is located below the modular disconnector 16, and is connected to the drive shaft 9 within the modular disconnector 16 via a mechanism crank arm 17.

[0034] During operation, the mechanical crank arm 17 can be controlled by the three-position switch mechanism 13, which in turn controls the rotation of the transmission shaft 9. The transmission shaft 9 will drive the transmission mechanism, which in turn drives the movement of the contact 4, ultimately realizing the contact and separation of the moving contact 4 and the stationary contact 15, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the circuit breaker.
