Description

Universal circuit breaker with arc extinguishing performance
Technical Field
The invention relates to an alternating current and direct current universal circuit breaker with strong short-circuit current breaking capacity, belonging to the technical field of emergency protection devices.
Background
The conventional circuit breaker (ACB) is an important electrical component in industrial and civil low-voltage distribution equipment, and is mostly used as a master switch on the low-voltage side of a low-voltage distribution system to protect overload and short-circuit faults of a distribution line. The short-circuit fault protection is the most important function, and because the short-circuit current of a line is very large during short-circuit fault, plasma electric arcs with very large energy can be generated between a moving contact and a static contact of the breaker when the breaker breaks the short-circuit current, and the breaker can complete the task of breaking the short-circuit current only by quickly extinguishing the electric arcs through certain technical measures.
At present, ACBs at home and abroad adopt an arc extinguishing chamber technology to cool and extinguish high-temperature and high-voltage electric arcs generated when short-circuit current is disconnected, and the arc extinguishing principle of the technology is as follows: when the short-circuit current is cut off, after the electric arc is generated between the moving contact and the static contact and is stretched to a certain length and the energy is correspondingly amplified, the high-energy electric arc is driven to enter the arc extinguish chamber by adopting magnetic field electrodynamic force or other modes, so that the high-energy electric arc is extinguished under the cooling action of the metal grid sheet in the arc extinguish chamber. The arc extinguishing effect of the method is influenced by factors such as arc extinguishing chamber materials, contact opening speed, contact opening distance, contact materials and the like, particularly for the circuit breaker with a single-breakpoint structure, the capacity of breaking short-circuit current is poor and generally does not exceed the alternating current 400V and 50-80kA, and if the performance parameter is improved, the manufacturing cost is greatly improved. And the direct current short-circuit current is not easy to break because of no zero-crossing process.
With the construction and development of a power grid and the improvement of the reliability requirement of people on the power grid, a new arc extinguishing scheme is objectively needed to greatly improve the capacity of the ACB for breaking alternating current and direct current short-circuit current.

The invention adopts two-stage arc extinction, and the electric arc after the initial auxiliary arc extinction can be introduced into the arc extinction chamber to continue the subsequent arc extinction operation, thereby greatly improving the arc extinction capability of the circuit breaker and greatly improving the short-circuit current breaking capability of the circuit breaker.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
The invention adds a special insulation arc-extinguishing mechanism on the static contact side of the universal circuit breaker (ACB), when the circuit has fault and short circuit current, the intelligent controller module of the circuit breaker sends out instantaneous tripping command and the action mechanism acts instantaneously, and the insulation shielding plate of the insulation arc-extinguishing mechanism inserts between the moving head and the static head quickly, thus playing a role of high-efficiency arc-extinguishing instantaneously.
Referring to fig. 1 to 7, the invention includes a fixed contact 1, a movable contact 2, a tripping mechanism 8, an energy storage mechanism 9, an insulating arc extinguishing mechanism, an intelligent control module and a magnetic flux tripper 10, which are arranged on a circuit breaker housing, wherein the insulating arc extinguishing mechanism includes a magnetic yoke 3, an insulating shielding plate 4, an armature 5, a pressure spring 6 and a slide bar 7.
The insulating arc extinguishing mechanism adopts a slide bar type structure, two slide bars 7 are fixed on the static contact 1 through a magnet yoke 3 and screws, two pressure springs 6 are arranged on the two slide bars 7, an armature 5 and an insulating shielding plate 4 are fixed into a whole through screws and are arranged on the two slide bars 7, the end parts of the two slide bars 7 are provided with anti-drop nuts for limiting the combination of the armature 5 and the insulating shielding plate 4 and preventing the two from dropping off from the slide bars 7, and the combination of the armature 5 and the insulating shielding plate 4 can overcome the elasticity of the pressure springs 6 to slide towards the static contact 1 and one side of the magnet yoke 3 under the action of external force. When a fault short-circuit current occurs in a circuit, because a strong electromagnetic field is generated around the static contact 1, the magnetic yoke 3 attracts the armature 5 after being magnetized, a combination of the armature 5 and the insulating shielding plate 4 overcomes the elasticity of the pressure spring 6 and slides to one side of the static contact 1 and the magnetic yoke 3 rapidly, meanwhile, an intelligent control module and a magnetic flux release 10 of the switch send out an instant release instruction according to the collected information of the current transformer CT and act instantaneously to cause the release mechanism 8 to act, and when the moving contact 2 rotates clockwise around the pin shaft A to be opened, the insulating shielding plate 4 is rapidly inserted between the moving contact 2 and the static contact 1 to play a role of rapidly insulating and shielding arc extinguishing. After the short-circuit current disappears, the attraction force borne by the armature 5 disappears, the combination body of the armature 5 and the insulating shielding plate 4 returns to the original position under the action of the elastic force of the pressure spring 6, and the circuit breaker completes the whole process of breaking the short-circuit current. The energy storage mechanism 9 is used for closing and storing energy.
The insulating shielding plate 4 is used as an auxiliary arc extinguishing mechanism to form a two-stage arc extinguishing device with the original arc extinguishing chamber, the auxiliary arc extinguishing mechanism is used for extinguishing arcs when the moving contact and the static contact are not completely opened, and the arc extinguishing chamber 15 has a good residual arc extinguishing effect after the moving contact and the static contact are completely opened.
The insulation shielding plate 4 is made of high-strength and high-temperature-resistant engineering plastic materials. The number of times (3 times at most) of effectively breaking the short-circuit current specified by the product standard can be ensured.
Due to the adoption of the technical scheme, the arc extinguishing device of the ACB can achieve the following technical progress:
1, the capacity of breaking short-circuit current of a product can be greatly improved;
2. the purpose of alternating current and direct current is achieved;
3. when the fault short-circuit current is cut off, the further expansion of the arc energy can be limited, so that short arcing or no arcing of the product can be realized.
