Fig. 1 shows a kind of locker 1 that is used for circuit breaker, its switch shaft 2 by do not illustrate among figure of a switch axostylus axostyle 3 control, can and figure in the floatless switch contact that do not illustrate equally disconnect and make position between the switch contact that moves.Rotatably support has a roller 5 on the axle 4 of switch axostylus axostyle 3.Pallet 6 is arranged on the supporting member 8 of circuit breaker rotationally by means of axle 7.Pallet 6 has and roller 5 coefficient first ends 9, and with fixture 11 coefficient second ends 10.Be fixed with first end of a tension spring 13 by means of a retaining element 12 at second end 10 of pallet 6.Second end of tension spring 13 is fixed on the gim peg 14 of support component 8.Second end 10 of pallet 6 also has an armature 15.Electromagnetic system 16 is arranged on the support component 8, and this electromagnetic system comprises a permanent magnet 17 and coil 18.Being provided with one at first end 9 of pallet 6 is used for along the alignment pin 19 of the outline 20 guiding pallets 6 of the switch axostylus axostyle 3 of switch shaft 2.Switch shaft 2 also has a retaining element 21, is hinged with one that do not illustrate equally in the drawings, form for disconnecting the energy-accumulating element of energy-storaging spring element on this retaining element, and this energy-accumulating element is used to control the driving mechanism of the movable switch contact of circuit breaker.In such circuit breaker, that switch shaft 2 is subjected to not illustrate among the figure, as to be used to order about switch contact motion driving device controls.
Fig. 2 shows the locker 1 that is in primary importance, and wherein the switch contact of circuit breaker is in open position, and has prepared to carry out the switching process of circuit breaker.The tension spring element 13 of second end 10 that is fixed on pallet 6 is applied to pulling force on the direction of arrow A in this position of pallet 6 to pallet 6, and alignment pin 19 is abutted on the outline 20 of switch shaft 2.Armature 15 separates with electromagnetic system 16, wherein, prevents that by the alignment pin 19 that abuts on the switch axostylus axostyle 3 pallet 6 from rotating around axle 7.
If the switching process of circuit breaker is triggered, will impel switch shaft 2 on the direction of motion arrow B, to clockwise rotate by drive unit together with switch axostylus axostyle 3.In such rotation, alignment pin 19 slides along the outline 20 of switch axostylus axostyle 19, has discharged the switching process of the switch contact of circuit breaker until switch shaft 2 and switch axostylus axostyle 3.Have switch shaft 2 motion clockwise in this switching process of switch axostylus axostyle 3, wherein, last alignment pin 19 leaves outline 20, and the free end of pallet 6 abuts on the roller 5 of switch axostylus axostyle 3, and by the power that applies by tension spring element 13 around axle 7 motion clockwise.In this switching process, the energy-accumulating element that is arranged on the retaining element is compacted.
Fig. 3 shows the locker after the aforementioned switches process of circuit breaker.The switch shaft 2 that has switch axostylus axostyle 3 is positioned at such position, promptly by the driving mechanism that is arranged on the retaining element 21 switch contact of circuit breaker is in the close position on this position.Because switch shaft 2 impels mechanical compliance hour hands that pallet 6 applies by tension spring element 13 to rotate and be arranged in Fig. 3 and the position that has switch shaft 2 snap closes of switch axostylus axostyle 3 around axle 7 in the motion of the direction of motion arrow B, on this position, armature 15 contacts with electromagnetic system 16.First end 9 of pallet 6 is as the lock piece of the roller 5 on switch axostylus axostyle 3 or the switch axostylus axostyle 3.That do not illustrate among the figure and be arranged on the retaining element 21, compacted energy-accumulating element produces backward the power of motion on switch axostylus axostyle 3 or switch shaft 2 in this position in switching process, but this power is not enough to disconnect latching device, because armature 15 contacts with electromagnetic system 16, make to act on power on the pallet 6 greater than by disconnecting the power that accumulator transmits on pallet by switch axostylus axostyle 3 by tension spring element 13 and electromagnetic system 16.
Fig. 4 shows pallet 6 and the power that acts on this pallet 6, and Fig. 5 shows its detailed view.The F that causes by tension spring 13 1Act on the pallet 6, this pallet is bearing on the gyroaxis 7 as fulcrum pivotally.In addition, power F 2 Permanent magnet 17 by electromagnetic system 16 acts on the armature 15 of pallet 6.Belong to each power and determine that by lever arm separately promptly gyroaxis is to the distance h of tension spring application point at the moment of torsion of the fulcrum of gyroaxis 7 1With the distance h of gyroaxis to the application point of magnetic force F2 2Power F3 acts on first end 9 of pallet 6, and this power is passed to the end 9 of pallet 6 by the disconnection accumulator that is connected with switch shaft 2 or switch axostylus axostyle 3.At this such outline of design pawl end 9, that is, and the radial component F of the power of transmitting by switch shaft 3 3The fulcrum of gyroaxis 7 acts on prejudicially relatively, therefore, and by power F 3Form moment of torsion at fulcrum equally, this moment of torsion is with opposite by the torque direction of tension spring element and permanent magnet system.At the fulcrum of gyroaxis 7 by power F 3The reverse moment of torsion that produces is by being equivalent to power F 3Fulcrum and the lever arm h of the distance of application point 3Determine.The moment of torsion that acts on the gyroaxis 7 is:
Apply by the tension spring element: F1 * h1
Apply by permanent magnet system: F2 * h2

Because the reverse moment of torsion that produces by power F3 has opposite direction, this reverse moment of torsion has opposite symbol when the moment of torsion addition.
These moments and be applicable to:
F1×h1+F2×h2-F3×h3>0
Therefore, the holding torque that is caused by power F1 and F2 is greater than the reverse moment of torsion that is produced on pallet 6 by power F3, and pallet 6 anchor switch axles 2 or switch axostylus axostyle 3.
Can produce the complementary field in the magnetic field of a resistance permanent magnet 17 by the coil 18 of electromagnetic system 16, therefore, offset by the electromagnetism opposite force that produces by coil by the power that permanent magnet 17 acts on the armature 15, and electromagnetic system 16 does not in general have power to be applied on the armature 15.
