[0042] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0043] Load switches, as core equipment in power systems used for circuit connection, disconnection, and protection, operate by using a linkage to drive a moving contact to achieve contact or separation with the stationary contact. However, with the continuous improvement of market demands and technological advancements, traditional load switch designs can no longer fully meet modern application requirements. In traditional designs, a moving spring is typically used as the moving contact to achieve connection and separation with the stationary contact.

[0044] However, with increasing product performance requirements, more and more load switches need to use plate-shaped contact plates as moving contacts. This new design can better adapt to complex electrical environments while improving the load capacity and service life of the switch. However, this improvement also brings new technical challenges: how to effectively integrate the plate-shaped moving contact plate into the load switch without changing its overall layout, and how to achieve a reliable connection between the moving contact plate and other components.

[0045] Based on the problems existing in the current technology, please refer to Figures 1 to 7 This utility model embodiment provides a load switch 10, which is applied to electricity meters and other related electrical equipment. The load switch 10 has a reasonable connection design between the transmission rod 500 and the moving contact 400, which can reduce its impact on the electric arc and facilitate arc extinguishing, thus ensuring the stable operation of the load switch 10.

[0046] In detail, the load switch 10 includes a housing 100 and an electromagnetic assembly 200, an armature 300, a moving contact 400 and a transmission rod 500 disposed within the housing 100.

[0047] Both the armature 300 and the moving contact 400 are movably mounted on the housing 100. One end of the transmission rod 500 is connected to the armature 300, and the other end is connected to the moving contact 400. It is worth mentioning that, in order to enable the transmission rod 500 to smoothly drive the moving contact 400, the transmission rod 500 and the moving contact 400 can be connected by a hinge.

[0048] First, it should be noted that during the closing or opening process of the moving contact 400, the path taken by any point on the moving contact 400 is a straight line or a curve, and the plane on which the straight line or curve is located is the plane on which the moving contact 400 moves.

[0049] Specifically, taking the actual installation state of the load switch 10 as a reference, the plane on which the moving contact 400 moves is located is a vertical plane parallel to the front or back plate of the housing 100.

[0050] Therefore, the partial projection of the transmission rod 500 on the plane where the moving contact 400 moves coincides with the partial projection of the moving contact 400. That is, the transmission rod 500 is not connected to the top wall of the moving contact 400 facing the armature 300 or the electromagnetic component 200, but extends to connect with other walls of the transmission rod 500. On the one hand, compared with the traditional connecting rod directly connected to the moving contact 440, the connection position of the transmission rod 500 and the moving contact 400 in this application is further away from the contact point, and the vertical space corresponding to the moving contact 440 of the moving contact 400 is left empty, which facilitates arc initiation and improves the arc extinguishing capability. On the other hand, it also makes the extension length of the transmission rod 500 relative to the moving contact 400 longer. This allows the installation height of the transmission rod 500 relative to the housing 100 to be reduced by moving the transmission rod 500 as a whole downward, thereby reducing the installation space of the transmission rod 500 and the moving contact 400. This optimizes the spatial layout of the load switch 10, which is especially suitable for compact electrical equipment and thus improves product adaptability.

[0051] Specifically, the moving contact 400 includes a first wall surface 410, a side wall 420, and a second wall surface 430. The first wall surface 410 is arranged facing the armature 300, and the second wall surface 430 is arranged away from the armature 300. The transmission rod 500 is connected to the side wall 420 or the second wall surface 430, so that the connection position between the transmission rod 500 and the moving contact 400 is further away from the contact position than the existing connecting rod, which is convenient for arc extinguishing and reduces the installation height of the transmission rod 500 relative to the housing 100, thereby reducing the installation space of the transmission rod 500 and the moving contact 400, thus optimizing the spatial layout of the load switch 10.

[0052] Furthermore, the load switch 10 also includes a stationary contact 600, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the second wall surface 430 is provided with a moving contact 440, which is used to contact or separate from the stationary contact 600.

[0053] Correspondingly, in this embodiment, the stationary contact 600 is disposed on one side of the second wall surface 430 of the moving contact 400.

[0054] Of course, in other embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the first wall surface 410 is provided with a movable contact 440. Since the movable contact 440 is provided on the first wall surface 410, the stationary contact 600 is provided on one side of the first wall surface 410 of the movable contact 400.

[0055] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1 to 5As shown, one end of the moving contact 400 is provided with a moving contact portion 440, and the other end is provided with a rotating portion 450. The rotating portion 450 is movably disposed in the housing 100 via a rotating shaft 120. The moving contact 400 is also provided with a connecting portion 460, which is connected to the transmission rod 500. The connecting portion 460 is located between the moving contact portion 440 and the rotating portion 450 and is adjacent to the moving contact portion 440.

[0056] In other words, the transmission rod 500 is connected to the side wall 420 or the second wall surface 430 of the moving contact 400 located between the moving contact 440 and the rotating part 450. In order to facilitate pulling the moving contact 400, the connecting part 460 is also arranged away from the rotating part 450 and adjacent to the moving contact 440.

[0057] Furthermore, the armature 300 is provided with a transmission arm 310, which is provided with a first oblong hole 311. One end of the transmission rod 500 is movably engaged with the first oblong hole 311. Therefore, during the process of the electromagnetic component 200 driving the armature 300 to move, and the armature 300 driving the transmission rod 500 to move, and finally driving the moving contact 400 and the stationary contact 600 to close or open through the transmission rod 500, during the "overtravel" process, one end of the transmission rod 500 can slide along the extension direction of the first oblong hole 311, thereby reducing the movement amplitude of the armature 300 and the transmission rod 500.

[0058] In order to ensure that one end of the transmission rod 500 remains relatively stable in the first waist-shaped hole 311, a second elastic element 320 is provided on the transmission arm 310 of the armature 300, and the second elastic element 320 is compressed and acts on the transmission rod 500 so that the transmission rod 500 is always located at the bottom end of the first waist-shaped hole 311 when the circuit is closed or open.

[0059] Furthermore, the load switch 10 also includes a stationary contact 600 and a first lead-out member 700 connected to each other. The first lead-out member 700 and the moving contact 400 are arranged along a first direction X, and the stationary contact 600 and the moving contact 400 are arranged along a second direction Y. The first direction X is perpendicular to the second direction Y.

[0060] It is worth mentioning that, if we take the housing 100 as a reference, the first direction X is the length direction of the housing 100, and the second direction Y is the height direction of the housing 100. Therefore, the plane on which the moving contact 400 moves is the vertical plane on which the first direction X and the second direction Y are located.

[0061] In this embodiment, the stationary contact 600 is located on one side of the moving contact 400 along the second direction Y. That is, the stationary contact 600 can be located on the side of the moving contact 400 near the first wall surface 410, or it can be located on the side of the moving contact 400 near the second wall surface 430.

[0062] The first lead-out member 700 is located on one side of the moving contact 400 in the first direction X. One end of the first lead-out member 700 is connected to the stationary contact 600, and the other end extends out of the housing 100.

[0063] Of course, in other embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, one end of the moving contact 400 is provided with a connecting part 460, which is connected to the transmission rod 500, and the other end is provided with a rotating part 450, which is movably disposed in the housing 100. The moving contact 400 is also provided with a moving contact 440, which is located between the connecting part 460 and the rotating part 450 and is adjacent to the connecting part 460.

[0064] In other words, one end of the moving contact 400 is rotatably connected to the housing 100 via the rotating part 450, and the other end is connected to the transmission rod 500 via the connecting part 460. The moving contact 440 is located between the rotating part 450 and the connecting part 460. This increases the lever arm of the moving contact 400, so that when the transmission rod 500 applies the same force to the moving contact 400, it generates a larger torque, which facilitates the moving contact 400 to contact or separate from the stationary contact 600, thereby improving the response speed of the moving contact 400.

[0065] Because the connecting part 460 is located at the end of the moving contact 400, it occupies the connection space between the first lead-out member 700 and the stationary contact 600. Therefore, in this embodiment, the first lead-out member 700 includes a first segment 710, a second segment 720, and a third segment 730 connected in sequence. The stationary contact 600 is connected to the first segment 710. The stationary contact 600 and / or the second segment 720 extend along the first direction X. The stationary contact 600, the second segment 720, and the third segment 730 are arranged along the second direction Y. The first segment 710 and the moving contact 400 are arranged along the third direction Z. One end of the third segment 730 is connected to the second segment 720, and the other end extends out of the housing 100.

[0066] Among them, the first direction X and the second direction Y are both perpendicular to the third direction Z.

[0067] It is worth mentioning that, with the shell 100 as a reference, the third direction Z is the thickness direction of the shell 100.

[0068] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the electromagnetic component 200 includes a coil 210 and a yoke 220 connected to the coil 210. The axis of the coil 210 extends along a first direction X. The coil 210, the armature 300, and the moving contact 400 are arranged sequentially along a second direction Y.

[0069] In this embodiment, with the housing 100 as a reference, the coil 210, armature 300, and moving contact 400 are arranged sequentially along the height direction of the housing 100, and the coil 210 is arranged horizontally inside the housing 100. This allows the coil 210, armature 300, and moving contact 400 to make full and reasonable use of the internal space of the housing 100, and can appropriately reduce the length of the housing 100, thereby reducing the overall volume of the housing 100. This optimizes the spatial layout of the load switch 10, making it particularly suitable for compact electrical equipment and thus improving product adaptability.

[0070] It is worth mentioning that in this embodiment, the yoke 220 is arranged asymmetrically.

[0071] In other embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 3 to 7 As shown, the coil 210 and the armature 300 are arranged sequentially in the housing 100 along the first direction X, the electromagnetic component 200 and the moving contact 400 are arranged sequentially along the second direction Y, and the axis of the coil 210 extends along the second direction Y.

[0072] In this embodiment, with the housing 100 as a reference, the coil 210 and the armature 300 are arranged sequentially along the length of the housing 100, and the driving mechanism composed of the coil 210 and the armature 300 and the moving contact 400 are arranged sequentially along the height of the housing 100, and the coil 210 is placed inside the housing 100.

[0073] It is worth mentioning that in this embodiment, the yoke 220 is arranged symmetrically.

[0074] Furthermore, in some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the load switch 10 also includes a first elastic element 800. The housing 100 is provided with a limit post 110 and a rotating shaft 120. The moving contact 400 is provided with a moving contact portion 440, a rotating portion 450 and an abutment portion 470 in sequence along its extension direction. The rotating portion 450 is provided with a second oblong hole 451. The rotating shaft 120 is movably engaged with the second oblong hole 451. The limit post 110 is located on the side of the moving contact 400 near the transmission rod 500. The first elastic element 800 is located on the side of the moving contact 400 away from the transmission rod 500. The first elastic element 800 is used to apply an elastic force to the abutment portion 470 when the moving contact 400 and the stationary contact 600 are closed or open. The limit post 110 is used to abut against the moving contact 400 when the moving contact 400 is open.

[0075] In this embodiment, when the moving contact 400 and the stationary contact 600 are closed, the moving contact 400 tends to rotate around the rotating shaft 120 under the elastic restoring force of the first elastic member 800. In this state, the rotating shaft 120 is located at the bottom end of the second oblong hole 451. Therefore, the moving contact portion 440 of the moving contact 400 tends to move toward the stationary contact 600, thereby increasing the contact force between the moving contact 400 and the stationary contact 600 and improving the operational stability of the load switch 10.

[0076] When the moving contact 400 and the stationary contact 600 are open, the moving contact 400 tends to rotate around the limiting shaft under the elastic restoring force of the first elastic element 800. In this state, the rotating shaft 120 is located at the top of the second oblong hole 451. Therefore, if the transmission rod 500 applies a force toward the stationary contact 600 to the moving contact 400 at this time, the moving contact 400 can move toward the stationary contact 600 under the combined force of the transmission rod 500 and the first elastic element 800, thereby achieving the purpose of making it easier for the moving contact 400 to close with the stationary contact 600.

[0077] Furthermore, the load switch also includes an arc-extinguishing chamber 900, which is disposed on one side of the moving contact 400 along the first direction X. The arc-extinguishing chamber 900 can also be disposed on at least one side of the moving contact 400 along the third direction Z. Of course, the arc-extinguishing chamber 900 can also be disposed on both one side of the moving contact 400 along the first direction X and one side of the moving contact 400 along the third direction Z.

[0078] It is understandable that the moving contact 400 can be set on one side of the first direction X in the arc-extinguishing chamber 900, or on one or both sides of the moving contact 400 in the third direction Z. Of course, the arc-extinguishing chamber 900 can also simultaneously set the moving contact 400 on one side of the first direction X and on one or both sides of the third direction Z. It can be adjusted according to actual needs, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0079] It is understood that the arc-extinguishing chamber 900 can also be simultaneously disposed on at least one side of the stationary contact 600 along the first direction X and / or the third direction Z.

[0080] Furthermore, the load switch also includes a second lead-out component 1000, which includes a fourth segment 1010, a fifth segment 1020, and a sixth segment 1030 connected in sequence. The fourth segment 1010 is connected to the moving contact 400 via a flexible connection. The fourth segment 1010 and the fifth segment 1020 are located on the third direction Z side of the moving contact 400, and the sixth segment 1030 is located on the second direction Y side of the moving contact 400. In the closed state, the fourth segment 1010 and the sixth segment 1030 are located on opposite sides of the thickness direction of the moving contact 400, and the current flows in opposite directions in the fourth segment 1010 and the sixth segment 1030.

[0081] Specifically, in the closed state, the current direction of the fourth section 1010 is opposite to that of the moving contact 400, and the current direction of the sixth section 1030 is the same as that of the moving contact 400. This makes the moving contact 400 subject to an electromagnetic force toward the stationary contact 600 in the energized state, thereby increasing the contact force between the moving contact 400 and the stationary contact 600 and improving the short-circuit withstand capability of the load switch.

[0082] Furthermore, in order to further improve the contact force between the moving contact 400 and the stationary contact 600, the load switch also includes a magnetizing element 1100, which is disposed on one or both sides of the moving contact 400 in the thickness direction.

[0083] Specifically, the magnetizing element 1100 is disposed on one or both sides of the moving contact 400 and the sixth segment 1030 along the third direction Z.

[0084] In this embodiment, by disposing of the magnetizing element 1100 on one side or opposite sides of the moving contact 400 and the sixth segment 1030 along the third direction Z, the electromagnetic force on the moving contact 400 toward the stationary contact 600 is increased by the magnetizing element 1100, thereby further increasing the contact force between the moving contact 400 and the stationary contact 600 and further improving the short-circuit withstand capability of the load switch.

[0085] Finally, it is worth mentioning that the above embodiments can be arranged and combined arbitrarily, and are not limited to the specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0086] In summary, this utility model embodiment provides a load switch 10 in which a portion of the projection of the transmission rod 500 on the plane of the moving contact 400's movement path coincides with a portion of the projection of the moving contact 400. That is, the transmission rod 500 is not connected to the top wall of the moving contact 400 facing the armature 300 or the electromagnetic assembly 200, but extends further to connect with other wall surfaces of the transmission rod 500. On the one hand, compared to a conventional connecting rod directly connected to the moving contact 440, the connection position of the transmission rod 500 and the moving contact 400 in this application is further away from the moving contact 440. The stationary contact 440 is separated from the moving contact 400, leaving vertical space corresponding to the moving contact 400, which facilitates arc initiation and improves arc extinguishing capability. On the other hand, the extension length of the transmission rod 500 relative to the moving contact 400 is also longer, so the installation height of the transmission rod 500 relative to the housing 100 can be reduced by moving the transmission rod 500 as a whole downward, thereby reducing the installation space of the transmission rod 500 and the moving contact 400. This optimizes the spatial layout of the load switch 10, making it particularly suitable for compact electrical equipment and thus improving product adaptability.

[0087] Furthermore, this utility model embodiment also provides an electricity meter, including the load switch 10 as described in the above embodiments.

[0088] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
