Detailed Description
In order to make the aforementioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention comprehensible, embodiments accompanied with figures are described in detail below. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. This invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein, but rather should be construed as broadly as the present invention is capable of modification in various respects, all without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, an embodiment of the present invention provides a circuit breaker, including: the static contact 100, the moving contact 200, a plurality of arc extinguishing bars 300, at least one gas generating structure 400 and a permanent magnet 500. The movable contact 200 can rotate relative to the stationary contact 100, so that the contact point of the movable contact 200 is in contact with and/or separated from the contact point of the stationary contact 100. The arc extinguishing grid 300 is used for extinguishing an arc generated by the separation of the fixed contact 100 and the movable contact 200. The gas generating structure 400 covers the arc chute 300. The permanent magnet 500 has a first magnetic pole and a second magnetic pole, and an included angle between a connecting direction of the first magnetic pole and the second magnetic pole and an arc surface formed by the rotation of the movable contact 200 is 80-100 degrees.
In the invention, the permanent magnet 500 is arranged in the circuit breaker, so that the magnetic field of a loop can be enhanced, the defect of insufficient magnetic field intensity of the loop under the condition of low current is overcome, the electric arc can move into the arc extinguishing grid 300 more quickly, and the breaking capacity of the circuit breaker is improved. And, the gas generating structure 400 coating the arc extinguishing grid 300 generates gas with high heat conductivity under the action of high temperature of the electric arc, so that the electric arc is rapidly cooled, the arc extinguishing is further accelerated, and the breaking capacity of the circuit breaker is improved.
In addition, an included angle between a connection direction of the first magnetic pole and the second magnetic pole of the permanent magnet 500 and an arc surface formed by the rotation of the movable contact 200 is 80-100 degrees, so that the influence of avoiding polarity can be eliminated, and different currents enter arc extinguishing grid pieces 300 on different sides of the permanent magnet 500 when alternating current is switched on and off. It should be noted that, the invention does not limit the magnetism of the first magnetic pole and the second magnetic pole at all, for example, when the first magnetic pole is an N-pole, the opposite second magnetic pole may be an S-pole. When the first magnetic pole is an S pole, the opposite second magnetic pole can be an N pole.
In one embodiment, the gas generating structures 400 correspond to the arc chute plates 300 one to one. It can be understood that the gas generation structures 400 correspond to the arc extinguishing grids 300 one to one, so that the gas generated by the gas generation structures 400 after being heated can be used for cooling the arc for multiple times in the arc extinguishing process, thereby accelerating the arc extinguishing.
In one embodiment, the arc chute plates 300 are divided into two parts, and the two parts of the arc chute plates 300 are respectively located at two opposite sides of the permanent magnet 500. It can be understood that when the ac current is cut off, different currents enter the arc chute 300 at different sides under the magnetic field of the permanent magnet 500, thereby performing arc extinction. In this embodiment, the two arc extinguishing grid pieces are the same in number, and the arc extinguishing grid pieces located on the same side are arranged in parallel at equal intervals.
In one embodiment, a connection line between the first magnetic pole and the second magnetic pole is perpendicular to a plane formed by the rotation of the movable contact 200. It can be understood that when the connection line of the first magnetic pole and the second magnetic pole is perpendicular to the plane formed by the rotation of the movable contact 200, the current is only acted by the magnetic field pointing from the N pole to the S pole (or the S pole to the N pole), the magnetic fields on both sides of the permanent magnet 500 are uniform, and the acting force directions of the currents in different directions are the same.
Referring to fig. 3, in the present embodiment, one end close to the moving contact 200 and/or the stationary contact 100 is an N pole of the permanent magnet 500, and the other end is an S pole of the permanent magnet 500, and the permanent magnet 500 generates a magnetic field pointing from the N pole to the S pole. The current interrupter is used for cutting off alternating current, when current generated by separation of the moving contact 200 and the fixed contact 100 flows to the vertical straight surface, an arc moves to the arc extinguishing grid piece 300 from a magnetic field area on the upper side of the permanent magnet 500; when the current generated by the separation of the movable contact 200 from the stationary contact 100 flows to the vertical straight surface, the arc moves from the magnetic field area of the lower side of the permanent magnet 500 to the arc chute 300. In addition, when one end close to the moving contact 200/the static contact 100 is the S pole of the permanent magnet 500, if the current generated by the separation of the moving contact 200 and the static contact 100 flows to the vertical straight surface inward, the arc moves to the arc chute 300 from the magnetic field area at the lower side of the permanent magnet 500; if the current generated by the separation of the moving contact 200 from the stationary contact 100 flows to the vertical straight surface, the arc moves from the magnetic field region on the upper side of the permanent magnet 500 to the arc chute 300.
Referring to fig. 3, in one embodiment, the circuit breaker further includes an insulating cover 600, and the insulating cover 600 covers the permanent magnet 500.
It can be understood that, after the permanent magnet 500 is coated with the insulating cover 600, when the arc moves through the permanent magnet 500, under the high temperature action of the arc, the insulating cover 600 decomposes to generate gas with high thermal conductivity, so that the arc is cooled, and on the one hand, the gas flow field is enhanced, so that the arc moves faster to enter the arc chute 300, and the breaking capacity of the circuit breaker is further improved. In addition, the permanent magnet 500 is wrapped in the insulation cover 600, so that high temperature generated during arc combustion can be isolated, and the demagnetization of the permanent magnet 500 due to the fact that the temperature exceeds the Curie temperature can be avoided.
In one embodiment, the insulating cap 600 and the gas generating structure 400 are made of the same gas generating insulating material. It will be appreciated that the use of the same gas generating insulating material to fabricate the insulating shroud 600 and the gas generating structure 400 facilitates reduced manufacturing costs and material management complexity. In addition, the insulating cover 600 and the gas generation structure 400 can be made of different gas generation insulating materials, and can be designed according to actual needs.
In one embodiment, the gas-generating insulating material is polyoxymethylene abbreviation, polytetrafluoroethylene, or polyamide fiber. The insulation cover 600 may be made of polyoxymethylene abbreviation, polytetrafluoroethylene or polyamide fiber, and the gas generating structure 400 may be made of any one of polyoxymethylene abbreviation, polytetrafluoroethylene and polyamide fiber.
In one embodiment, the circuit breaker further includes a convex base 700 to which one ends of the permanent magnet 500 and the insulation cover 600 are fixed. In this embodiment, the permanent magnet 500 is fixed to the center of the convex base 700, and the insulation cover 600 is attached to the convex portion of the convex base 700 to form a sealed accommodating cavity for accommodating the permanent magnet 500 with the convex base 700.
In one embodiment, the permanent magnet 500 is made of an alloy permanent magnet material or a ferrite permanent magnet material. For example, it may be selected from any of neodymium iron boron, samarium cobalt, or alnico.
In summary, the present invention provides a circuit breaker, which includes a fixed contact 100, a movable contact 200, a plurality of arc-extinguishing bars 300, at least one gas-generating structure 400, and a permanent magnet 500. The movable contact 200 can rotate relative to the stationary contact 100, so that the contact point of the movable contact 200 is in contact with and/or separated from the contact point of the stationary contact 100. The arc extinguishing grid 300 is used for extinguishing electric arcs generated by the separation of the static contact 100 and the moving contact 200; the gas generating structure 400 covers the arc chute 300. The permanent magnet 500 has a first magnetic pole and a second magnetic pole, and an included angle between a connecting direction of the first magnetic pole and the second magnetic pole and an arc surface formed by the rotation of the movable contact 200 is 80-100 degrees. In the invention, the permanent magnet 500 is arranged in the circuit breaker, so that the magnetic field of the loop can be enhanced, the defect of insufficient magnetic field intensity of the loop under the condition of low current is overcome, and the breaking capacity of the circuit breaker is improved. And, the gas generating structure 400 coating the arc extinguishing grid 300 generates gas with high heat conductivity under the action of high temperature of the electric arc, so that the electric arc is rapidly cooled, the arc extinguishing is further accelerated, and the breaking capacity of the circuit breaker is improved.
The technical features of the embodiments described above may be arbitrarily combined, and for the sake of brevity, all possible combinations of the technical features in the embodiments described above are not described, but should be considered as being within the scope of the present specification as long as there is no contradiction between the combinations of the technical features.
