[0002] Electric locomotive training refers to education and training on the operation, driving, maintenance, and repair of electric locomotives, as well as related theoretical knowledge. The high-voltage grounding switch is a crucial component of an electric locomotive. Its main function is to ground the circuits on both sides of the main circuit breaker during locomotive inspection, maintenance, or repair, ensuring that the switch can be quickly tripped in the event of a sudden power restoration during maintenance. It also releases static charge from the equipment and circuits under maintenance, ensuring the safety of maintenance personnel. Furthermore, it can neutralize static electricity and electromagnetic induction currents, preventing electromagnetic and electrostatic induction between de-energized lines and adjacent energized lines.
[0003] In recent years, with the rapid development of high-speed rail and urban rail transit in my country, in order to better adapt to market needs, railway locomotive depots and transportation vocational colleges across the country need to train electric locomotive drivers, locomotive maintenance workers, electric locomotive fitters, and students to meet the needs of rooftop operations, electric locomotive rooftop maintenance, and high-voltage component maintenance in a realistic simulation exercise. However, direct on-the-job operation is inherently dangerous, so teaching simulation equipment is needed to assist in the training process. Utility Model Content

[0010] Preferably, the connecting seat has a through hole, and one end of the connecting rod assembly passes through the through hole and is inserted into the lower cover.
[0011] Preferably, the lock assembly consists of five locks, which are blue and yellow in color.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] (1) The external dimensions, components, and interlocking control performance of this device are consistent with the real device, fully meeting the teaching and training needs and safety requirements, while also greatly reducing costs.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-voltage grounding switch for electric locomotive teaching simulation, including a connecting seat 6, a shaft 7 rotatably connected to the top of the connecting seat 6, an upper cover 3 fixedly connected to the top of the connecting seat 6, the upper cover 3 covering the outer wall of the shaft 7, a left bracket 4 and a right bracket 8 fixedly connected to both sides of the shaft 7 respectively, and a switch 1 fixedly connected to one end of each of the left bracket 4 and right bracket 8. This structure can ensure the stability of the connection between the switch 1 and the shaft 7. A crank assembly 5 is provided on the shaft 7, and a connecting rod assembly 9 is driven to the bottom of the crank assembly 5. This structure of the crank assembly 5 facilitates the rotation of the shaft 7 and drives the connecting rod assembly 9 to move. A grounding bolt 14 is connected to the top of the connecting seat 6, and a flexible connecting wire 13 is connected to the upper cover 3. This structure can shield and protect the shaft 7 through the upper cover 3. The grounding bolt 14 can improve the safety of using this device. The connecting seat 6 has a through hole, and one end of the connecting rod assembly 9 is inserted into the lower cover 11 through the through hole. The gate 1 of this structure is mounted on the shaft 7 through the left bracket 4 and the right bracket 8. The connecting rod assembly 9, shaft 7, crank assembly 5 and operating lever assembly 12 are combined to form a transmission mechanism. The shaft 7, crank assembly 5, connecting rod assembly 9 and operating lever assembly 12 form a transmission mechanism. Rotating the operating lever assembly 12 causes the entire transmission mechanism to drive, thereby causing the shaft 7 to drive the gate 1 to rotate a certain angle. When the operating lever assembly 12 rotates 180° from one end to the other end, the gate 1 also rotates accordingly from the "working" position. The shaft 7 rotates 102° from the "ground" position to the "working" position or from the "ground" position to the "working" position. Both sides of the shaft 7 are connected to a knife gate 1. One end of the connecting seat 6 is fixedly connected to a contact spring plate 2, which corresponds to the position of the knife gate 1. A lower cover 11 is provided at the bottom of the connecting seat 6. One end of the lower cover 11 is rotatably connected to an operating lever assembly 12. Inside the lower cover 11 are an interlocking mechanism 10, a turntable assembly 16, and a connecting rod assembly 9. One side of the interlocking mechanism 10 is connected to a lock assembly 15, which consists of five locks in blue and yellow. This lock assembly 15 controls whether the transmission mechanism can rotate. There are five locks in total, one for the blue key and four for the yellow key. Only the blue key can be used. After the lock is opened by the blue key, the control lever assembly 12 can be rotated from the "operation" position to the "grounding" position. Once rotated to the "grounding" position, the interlocking mechanism 10 is locked in this position by the lock with the yellow key. Then the yellow key can be removed from the lock. The blue key is for the locomotive's closed operation state, unlocking to allow "pantograph to rise". The yellow key is for the locomotive's open grounding state, used for opening the high-voltage room door lock, converter cabinet lock, or roof sunroof lock for maintenance. The actual operation is as follows: Open grounding state 1. Rotate the blue key used for pantograph locking to the "pantograph lowered" position, remove the key and insert it into the blue lock of the grounding switch. 2. Rotate the blue key, pull out the control lever and rotate it to the "grounding" position. 3. Rotate and remove the yellow key.It can open locks that require power disconnection, such as the high-voltage room door lock, the converter cabinet lock, or the sunroof lock. For the closing operation: 1. Rotate and pull out the "yellow" key from the high-voltage room door lock, converter cabinet lock, or sunroof lock, and insert it into the yellow lock of the grounding switch. 2. Rotate the yellow key, pull out the grounding switch operating lever, and rotate it to the "working" position. 3. Rotate and pull out the blue key, insert it into the pantograph switch lock, and rotate it to the "pantograph raised" position. The lower end of shaft 7 is connected to connecting rod assembly 9. One end of connecting rod assembly 9 is connected to turntable assembly 16. One end of turntable assembly 16 is fixedly connected to operating lever assembly 12.
[0023] Working principle: When using the high-voltage grounding switch for teaching simulation of electric locomotives, first open the blue lock position of lock assembly 15. After the blue lock is opened by the blue key, the operating lever assembly 12 can be rotated from the "operation" position to the "grounding" position. Once rotated to the "grounding" position, the interlocking mechanism 10 is locked in this position by the lock with the yellow key. Then the yellow key can be removed from the lock. The blue key is the locomotive closing operation state, and unlocking allows the "pantograph to rise". The yellow key is the locomotive opening grounding state, which can be used for maintenance such as opening the high-voltage room door lock, transformer cabinet lock, or roof sunroof lock.
