[0027] Existing power extraction methods suffer from several problems: unreliable connections that are prone to loosening and slippage, affecting power extraction stability; and a lack of self-locking and protection measures, posing a risk of detachment and significant safety hazards. Therefore, the rapid deployment of a reliable power supply system is crucial in this context. Consequently, there is a growing market demand for a device capable of rapid clamping, adaptive wire diameter control, automatic locking, and high safety and reliability.

[0028] Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0029] The following is combined Figures 1 to 6 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 6 As shown, according to an embodiment of the utility model, a power-generating device is provided, including: a first clamping arm 110; a second clamping arm 120, spaced apart from and opposite to the first clamping arm 110; a connector 130, one end of which is provided with a retractable connecting structure 150, the retractable connecting structure 150 being connected to the first clamping arm 110 or the second clamping arm 120 to increase or decrease the distance between the first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm 120, and the first clamping arm 110, the connector 130, and the second clamping arm 120 forming a clamping space 140 with one end open; a power-generating rod 160, which passes through the second clamping arm 120 and is located outside the clamping space 140; wherein, the first clamping arm 110, the second clamping arm 120, and the connector 130 are all made of insulating material.

[0031] In this embodiment, in use, the first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm 120 are positioned up and down to clamp the circuit breaker. The telescopic connection structure 150 can flexibly increase or decrease the distance between the first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm 120 through telescopic movement. This design allows the device to flexibly adapt to power conductors or circuit breakers of various sizes, greatly improving the product's versatility. The first clamping arm 110, the connector 130, and the second clamping arm 120 together form a clamping space 140 with one open end. This open design facilitates the quick and convenient placement of the circuit breaker or power conductor into the clamping space 140 for power extraction. The power extraction rod 160 is positioned outside the clamping space 140, with the second clamping arm 120 attached. This arrangement of the power extraction rod 160 effectively allows it to contact the equipment or line to be powered to achieve the power extraction function, while its placement outside the clamping space 140 avoids unnecessary interference with other components during power extraction, ensuring the stability and reliability of power extraction.

[0032] The power-collecting pole 160 is used to achieve electrical connection with external electrical equipment.

[0033] The first clamping arm 110, the second clamping arm 120, and the connector 130 form a U-shape. The first clamping arm 110, the second clamping arm 120, and the connector 130 are all made of insulating material. The insulating material can effectively isolate current and prevent electric shock accidents during operation, greatly ensuring personal safety. At the same time, the insulating material can also prevent short circuits and other malfunctions caused by current conduction in the power source itself, improving the safety and stability of the power source and extending the product's service life.

[0034] This invention connects the first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm 120 via a telescopic connection structure 150. The distance between the first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm 120 can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs, allowing the power source to adapt to various specifications and sizes of devices or lines requiring power. This eliminates the need for separate power sources for different devices, significantly improving the product's applicability and reducing operating costs. Furthermore, the clamping space 140 features an open-end design, making the placement of circuit breakers or lines extremely simple and quick. Operators can rapidly complete the installation and connection of power sources without complicated procedures, improving work efficiency.

[0035] Furthermore, the first clamping arm 110, the second clamping arm 120, and the connector 130 are all rubber injection molded parts.

[0036] The first clamping arm 110, the second clamping arm 120, and the connecting piece 130 are injection molded from high-strength rubber (such as polyurethane rubber or aramid fiber reinforced rubber) to form an overall frame. This provides excellent insulation and impact resistance, ensuring safety during live-line work. The elastic properties of the rubber material allow the clamping arms to adaptively adjust the contact angle and pressure when holding objects, preventing scratches or damage to the object's surface caused by rigid clamping. Furthermore, the injection molding process achieves lightweight and integrated components, while reducing the accumulation of errors in the assembly process, thus improving the overall structural reliability and service life. The rubber material also has a cushioning and shock-absorbing function, effectively reducing vibration and noise during equipment operation and optimizing the operating environment.

[0037] Furthermore, combined Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, one end of the connector 130 is provided with a connecting hole, and the telescopic connecting structure 150 includes: a guide shaft 151, which is disposed at one end of the first clamping arm 110; a first elastic member 152, which is sleeved on the guide shaft 151, one end of the first elastic member 152 is connected to the guide shaft 151, and the end of the first elastic member 152 away from the first clamping arm 110 is connected to the connecting hole.

[0038] In this embodiment, the connector 130 has a plate-like structure with a connection hole at one end. The inner wall of the connection hole is polished to reduce frictional resistance. The telescopic connection structure 150 mainly consists of a guide shaft 151 and a first elastic element 152. The guide shaft 151 is integrally formed from a high-strength alloy material and is vertically mounted on one end of the first clamping arm 110 by welding or thread fastening. The first elastic element 152 is a helical compression spring with good elastic recovery performance. Its inner diameter is adapted to the outer diameter of the guide shaft 151, allowing it to be tightly fitted onto the end of the guide shaft 151 away from the first clamping arm 110. One end of the first elastic element 152 abuts against the limiting boss of the guide shaft 151, while the other end extends into the connection hole and is securely connected to the connection hole by a retaining spring or end cap.

[0039] Utilizing the elastic deformation characteristics of the first elastic element 152, an adjustable telescopic space can be formed between the first clamping arm 110 and the connecting member 130. Pulling the first clamping arm 110 or the second clamping arm 120 will create a pressure-clamping circuit breaker, achieving one-click locking. This ensures that the power take-off device can firmly clamp the target object in different environments, increasing safety. This structural design allows the first clamping arm 110 to move flexibly and automatically reset under force, improving the adaptability and reliability of the overall device, making it suitable for working environments with dynamic displacement or vibration. The combination of the guide shaft 151 and the first elastic element 152 facilitates disassembly and maintenance. When components are damaged, the corresponding parts can be quickly replaced, reducing maintenance costs and downtime. By adjusting the specifications of the first elastic element 152, personalized requirements for telescopic stroke and buffering force under different working conditions can be met, enhancing the product's versatility and practicality.

[0040] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first clamping arm 110 and / or the second clamping arm are provided with threaded holes 170. The threaded holes 170 are provided with adjusting bolts that pass through the clamping space 140. The adjusting bolts are fitted with anti-slip pads. The anti-slip pads are made of wear-resistant rubber material to enhance friction, prevent slippage, and provide cushioning and shock absorption.

[0041] The first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm are equipped with a secondary clamping mechanism. A threaded hole 170 penetrates vertically through the wall of the clamping arm, precisely aligning with the center area of ​​the clamping space 140. The first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm are each secured by a nut with a rubber washer to prevent the device from falling off. The rubber washer not only increases friction but also acts as a buffer, reducing the impact of vibration on the device.

[0042] The adjusting bolt uses a Torx nut, which can be tightened manually. The tail of the adjusting bolt extends into the clamping space 140 and is fitted with an anti-slip rubber pad to prevent direct contact and scratching of the clamped object. Rotating the adjusting bolt allows for flexible adjustment of the size of the clamping space 140, accommodating objects of different sizes and shapes, significantly improving the versatility and applicability of the clamping arm. The fine-tuning mechanism formed by the adjusting bolt and the threaded hole 170 allows for precise control of the clamping force, ensuring the clamped object remains stable and preventing deformation or damage due to excessive clamping force. The adjusting bolt has a simple structure and is easy to maintain. When clamping parameters need adjustment, operators can quickly perform manual adjustments without complex disassembly, effectively improving equipment efficiency. The anti-slip rubber pad not only protects the surface of the clamped object but also increases friction, further enhancing clamping stability, reducing the risk of slippage, and ensuring the safety and reliability of the operation. The adjusting bolt is placed in the threaded hole 170 of the first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm 120. With the help of the rubber gasket, it can be used to achieve secondary clamping and locking of the circuit breaker by the two clamping arms to prevent accidental fall-off.

[0043] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the outer surfaces of the first clamping arm 110 and / or the second clamping arm opposite to the clamping surface are provided with anti-slip textures 180, which increases friction and prevents the power take-off device from slipping during use, especially important in high-altitude operations or complex environments.

[0044] On the outer surfaces of the first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm opposite to the clamping surface, regularly arranged anti-slip textures 180 are machined. These anti-slip textures 180 can also be in the form of an interlaced diamond grid, with the depth precisely controlled between 0.3-0.5 mm, ensuring sufficient anti-slip effect without affecting the overall structural strength of the clamping arms. The textured surface is anodized to form a dense oxide film, enhancing wear resistance and corrosion resistance, effectively extending service life. The 180 anti-slip texture significantly increases the coefficient of friction on the outer surface of the clamping arm. Operators can obtain a more stable grip when manually adjusting or moving the clamping arm, effectively preventing slippage and accidental collisions, thus significantly improving operational safety. During use, the 180 anti-slip texture reduces the risk of slippage when the clamping arm accidentally contacts surrounding components, preventing displacement deviations from affecting work accuracy. The regular 180 anti-slip texture design helps to quickly remove surface water stains, oil, and other contaminants, maintaining stable friction and ensuring reliable use even under harsh working conditions. Furthermore, this anti-slip treatment does not alter the basic structure of the clamping arm, improving practicality while also considering aesthetics and lightweight requirements, aligning with the multi-functional integration concept of industrial design.

[0045] The copper probe 161 is located on the outside of the open end of the clamping space 140, and the end of the copper probe 161 is fitted with an elastic sleeve 164.

[0046] A copper probe 161 (integrated in the power take-up pole 160) is precisely aligned with the exposed wiring nut on the outside of the circuit breaker, achieving reliable electrical contact through elastic pressure. A retractable rubber sleeve is installed at the contact point of the copper probe 161 with the circuit breaker; this sleeve automatically closes under pressure, isolating live metal and preventing leakage. An elastic sleeve 164 is fitted over the contact area between the copper probe 161 and the circuit breaker; it automatically opens and closes with the probe's extension and retraction, sealing the exposed metal portion when disconnected, effectively preventing leakage and improving operational safety.

[0047] A second elastic element 163 is also fitted onto the copper probe 161.

[0048] Using a copper probe 161, contact power is obtained at the exposed nut on the outside of the circuit breaker and connected to another standard socket to realize the external power supply function, and the internal equipment spring;

[0049] The clamp arm has an internal spring structure, namely the second elastic element 163, which can ensure that the probe always has a stable contact pressure and avoids poor contact.

[0050] The clamp body has two standard mounting holes for standard power supply rods, namely the first elastic element 160, for connecting external power supply devices or modules and has the characteristic of being pluggable while energized. This modular design allows the device to flexibly expand its functions according to actual needs.

[0051] In use, this invention allows for manual pulling of either the first clamping arm 110 or the second clamping arm 120, sliding along the guide shaft 151 to change the clamping opening of the clamping space 140, adapting it to circuit breakers of different widths (e.g., 16mm² to 150mm²). Upon release, the internal first elastic element 152 automatically applies clamping force, achieving initial fixation. Both the first clamping arm 110 and the second clamping arm 120 have threaded mounting holes, containing a pendulum nut and a rubber washer. After clamping, the user tightens the pendulum nut clockwise for secondary compression of the circuit breaker housing. The copper probe 161 precisely aligns with the exposed wiring nut on the circuit breaker's exterior, achieving reliable electrical contact through elastic pressure. An external telescopic rubber sleeve automatically closes under pressure, isolating live metal. An internal second elastic element 163 ensures the probe maintains stable contact pressure, preventing incomplete connections.

[0052] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for clear illustration and are not intended to limit the implementation.

[0053] For those skilled in the art, various variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom remain within the protection scope of this invention.
