In the description of the present invention, the directions or positional relationships indicated by "upper", "lower", "left", "right", and the like are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, or the directions or positional relationships that the present invention products are conventionally placed when in use, or the directions or positional relationships that the skilled person conventionally understands, only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and thus, should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
Fig. 1 and 2 show an exemplary embodiment of a change-over switch device according to the invention in a plan view and a perspective view, respectively. The change-over switch device comprises a first switch unit 1 in an upper position and a second switch unit 2 in a lower position. The first switch unit 1 and the second switch unit 0 are, for example, double break switches.
The first switching unit 1 includes a first frame 10 and a first movable contact assembly 16 mounted on the first frame 10. The first movable contact assembly 16 includes a first movable contact 160, one end of the first movable contact 160 can be electrically contacted with the first power source fixed contact 17, and the other end can be electrically contacted with the load first terminal 18. The first movable contact 160 is movable between a closed state and an open state. In a closing state, the first movable contact 160 is in communication with the electrical connection between the first power source fixed contact 17 and the load first terminal 18, and in an opening state, the first movable contact 160 disconnects the electrical connection between the first power source fixed contact 17 and the load first terminal 18.
The second switching unit 2 includes a second frame 20 and a second movable contact assembly 26 mounted on the second frame 20. The second movable contact assembly 26 includes a second movable contact 260 having one end capable of electrically contacting the second stationary power contact 27 and the other end capable of electrically contacting the second load terminal 28. The second movable contact 260 is capable of moving between a closed state and an open state. In a closing state, the second movable contact 260 is in communication with the electrical connection between the second power source fixed contact 27 and the load second terminal 28, and in an opening state, the second movable contact 260 disconnects the electrical connection between the second power source fixed contact 27 and the load second terminal 28.
The first stationary power source contact 17 is connected to a standby power source, for example, and the second stationary power source contact 27 is connected to a common power source, for example. The load first terminal 18 and the load second terminal 28 are both connected to a load.
Further, the first switch unit 1 further comprises a first handle 11, which is pivotally mounted on the first frame 10. As shown in fig. 1, the first handle 11 is mounted to the first frame 10, for example, at a pivot end 11-1 thereof, and is pivotally movable about the pivot end 11-1. The first switching unit 1 further comprises a first transmission 12 connecting the first handle 11 to the first movable contact 160 element to convert the pivoting movement of the first handle 11 into a rotational movement of the first movable contact 160 between the closing state and the opening state.
According to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the first transmission 12 may include a first resilient member 13 (e.g., a spring, as best shown in fig. 2, only schematically represented in fig. 1 by a dashed line for clarity), a first primary link 14, and a first secondary link 15. The first master link 14 is pivotally mounted on the first frame 10. The first handle 11 is mounted to the first housing 10, for example at its pivot end 11-1, and is pivotally movable about the pivot end 14-1. The moving end 14-2 of the first master link 14 is connected to the moving end 11-2 of the first handle 11 via a first elastic member 13. The first sub link 15 has one end pivotally connected to the moving end 14-2 of the first main link 14 and the other end connected to the first movable contact assembly 16.
Specifically, referring to fig. 2, the moving end 11-2 of the first handle 11 is provided with a first pin 110, and the moving end 14-2 of the first master link 14 is provided with a third pin 140. The first spring member is sleeved to first pin 110 of first handle 11 at one end and to third pin 140 of first handle 11 at the other end to connect first handle 11 and moving end 14-2 of first master link 14.
Thus, when the first handle 11 pivots, the first elastic component 13 applies a rotation moment to the first main link 14, and the rotation of the first main link 14 drives the rotation of the first movable contact assembly 16 via the first sub-link 15, so that the first movable contact 160 of the first movable contact assembly 16 can move between a closing state and an opening state.
Preferably, the first frame 10 comprises a first opening stop 101 (not shown), when said first switch unit 1 is opened, said first movable contact assembly 16 rotates towards the opening direction until it abuts against said first opening stop 101.
Likewise, the second switch unit 2 also comprises a second handle 21, which is pivotably mounted on the second frame 20. As shown in fig. 1, the second handle 21 is mounted to the second frame 20, for example, at a pivot end 21-1 thereof, and is pivotally movable about the pivot end 21-1. The second switching unit 2 further comprises a second transmission mechanism 22 connecting the second handle 21 to the second movable contact 260 element, so as to convert the pivoting movement of the second handle 21 into the rotating movement of the second movable contact 260 between the closing state and the opening state.
The second transmission mechanism 22 may include a second resilient member 23 (e.g., a spring, as best shown in fig. 2, and only schematically represented in fig. 1 by a dashed line for clarity), a second primary link 24, and a second secondary link 25. The second master link 24 is pivotally mounted to the second frame 20. The second handle 21 is mounted to the second frame 20, for example, at its pivot end 24-1, and is pivotally movable about the pivot end 24-1. The moving end 24-2 of the second master link 24 is connected to the moving end 21-2 of the second handle 21 via the second elastic member 23. The second sub link 25 has one end pivotally connected to the moving end 24-2 of the second main link 24 and the other end connected to the second movable contact assembly 26.
Specifically, referring to fig. 2, the moving end 21-2 of the second handle 21 is provided with a second pin 210, and the moving end 24-2 of the second master link 24 is provided with a fourth pin 240. The second elastic member 23 is sleeved to the second pin 210 of the second handle 21 at one end and to the fourth pin 240 of the second handle 21 at the other end to connect the second handle 21 and the moving end 24-2 of the second master link 24.
Therefore, when the second handle 21 pivots, the second elastic component 23 applies a rotation moment to the second main link 24, and the second main link 24 drives the second movable contact assembly 26 to rotate via the second secondary link 25, so that the second movable contact 260 of the second movable contact assembly 26 can move between a closing state and an opening state.
Preferably, the second frame 20 comprises a second opening stop 201 (not shown), when said second switch unit 2 is opened, said second movable contact assembly 26 rotates towards the opening direction until abutting against said second opening stop 201.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the transfer switch device according to the present invention further includes an interlock device 3 to move the first handle 11 and the second handle 21 together. According to an exemplary embodiment, the interlock device 3 is, for example, an oblong annular ring member disposed about a first pin 110 at the moving end 11-2 of the first handle 11 and a second pin 210 at the moving end 21-2 of the second handle 21. The first 110 and second 210 pins are always constrained inside the interlock 3 and close to each other during the movement of the first 11 and second 21 handles. On the one hand, the interlock device 3 cannot be undersized to ensure that its internal space provides freedom for the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 to move therein, thereby avoiding mechanical locking of the first handle 11 and the second handle 21 during the linkage. On the other hand, the interlock device 3 cannot be oversized to ensure that the first handle 11 and the second handle 21 move substantially synchronously.
The transfer switch device according to the invention further comprises an actuating device 4 for actuating the interlocking device 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210.
With reference to fig. 1 and 2, by way of example, said actuating means 4 comprise a first lever 41 and a second lever 42 arranged between the first switching unit 1 and the second switching unit 2. The first and second levers 41 and 42 are provided with first and second grooves 43 and 44, respectively. The first rod 41 extends from left to right and is provided at its right-hand end with a first groove 43, and the second rod 42 extends from right to left and is provided at its left-hand end with a second groove 44. It should be understood that the positions of the first and second grooves 43 and 44 on the first and second bars 41 and 42 are not limited to those described in the above embodiments, and the first and second grooves 43 and 44 may be provided at other positions on the first and second bars 41 and 42 as well, for example, at intermediate positions.
The first pin 110 of the first handle 11 and the second pin 210 of the second handle 21 are disposed in the first and second slots 43, 44. The first slot 43 includes a left inner edge 43-1 and a right inner edge 43-2, and the second slot 44 also includes a left inner edge 44-1 and a right inner edge 44-2 as shown in fig. 2. When the first lever 41 is moved leftward, the right inner edge 43-2 of the first slot 43 will engage with the first pin 110 or the second pin 210 and push the interlock device 3, the first pin 110, and the second pin 210 to move leftward. When the second lever 42 is moved to the right, the left inner edge 44-1 of the second slot 44 will engage with the first pin 110 or the second pin 210 and push the interlock 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 to move to the right. In this case, the leftward and rightward movements of the interlock device 3, the first pin 110, and the second pin 210 are carried by the movements of the first lever 41 and the second lever 42, respectively.
According to a variant not shown, the actuation means 4 may comprise only one rod. The rod extends from left to right and is provided at its right-hand end with a slot as described above, or the rod extends from right to left and is provided at its left-hand end with a slot as described above. In this case, the lever may be moved to the left or right to actuate the interlock device 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210. When the lever is moved to the left, the right inside edge of the slot will engage with the first pin 110 or the second pin 210 and push the interlock 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 to move to the left. When the lever is moved to the right, the left inner edge of the slot will engage with the first pin 110 or the second pin 210 and push the interlock 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 to the right.
According to one embodiment, the movement of the rod may be driven by a driving means, such as an electromagnet or a motor. As an example, as shown in fig. 2, the first lever 41 is driven by one of the unidirectional electromagnets 5, and when the coil of the unidirectional electromagnet 5 is energized, the first lever 41 moves leftward. Likewise, the second rod 42 is driven by another unidirectional electromagnet 6 (not shown), and when the coil of this unidirectional electromagnet 6 is energized, the second rod 42 moves to the right.
Furthermore, the first rod 41 and the second rod 42 may be provided with a first return spring 45 and a second return spring 46, respectively, which are not shown. When the first lever 41 is moved leftward from the initial position shown in fig. 2, the first return spring 45 biases the first lever 41 rightward, returning the first lever 41 to the initial position after the coil of the electromagnet 5 is deenergized. When the second lever 42 moves rightward from the initial position shown in fig. 2, the second return spring 46 biases the second lever 42 leftward, returning the second lever 42 to the initial position after the coil of the electromagnet 6 is deenergized.
Of course, other forms of actuating and driving means are also contemplated by those skilled in the art to effect movement of the first and second pins 110, 210 in both directions, represented in FIG. 1 as both left and right directions.
The change-over switch device according to the invention can have the following operating states under the action of the actuating device 4 as described above.
The interlock device 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 are in the first position, the first movable contact 160 is in the closed state, and the second movable contact 260 is in the open state (see fig. 3);
the interlock device 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 are in the second position, the second movable contact 260 is in the closed state, and the first movable contact 160 is in the open state (see fig. 5);
the interlock device 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 are in the intermediate position, and the first movable contact 160 and the second movable contact 260 are simultaneously in the open state (see fig. 4).
The operation of the transfer switching apparatus according to the present invention will be described below with reference to fig. 3 to 5.
In fig. 4, the interlock device 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 are in the neutral position, the first movable contact 160 of the first switch element 1 is in the open state and in its maximum open position, and the second movable contact 260 of the second switch element 2 is also in the open state and in its maximum open position.
Starting from the neutral position in fig. 4, when the first lever 41 is moved leftward, the right inner edge 43-2 of the first slot 43 engages with the first pin 110 or the second pin 210 and pushes the interlock device 3, the first pin 110, and the second pin 210 to move leftward.
On the first switch unit 1 side, the first handle 11 is rotated clockwise from the position shown in fig. 4, and the first elastic member 13 applies a rotational moment to the first master link 14 and rotates it counterclockwise. The rotation of the first main link 14 drives the first movable contact assembly 16 to rotate clockwise toward the closing direction through the first secondary link 15 until the first movable contact 160 reaches the closing state shown in fig. 3, and at this time, the first movable contact 160 is in communication with the electrical connection between the first power source fixed contact 17 and the load first terminal 18.
On the side of the second switch unit 2, the second handle 21 is rotated counterclockwise from the position shown in fig. 4. Since the second movable contact assembly 26 is held against the second opening stop 201, that is, the second opening stop 201 blocks the counterclockwise rotation of the second movable contact assembly 26, the second elastic member 23 is stretched but does not rotate the second main link 24 and the second secondary link 25, and the second movable contact 260 is maintained in the opening state as shown in fig. 3.
Contrary to the above described procedure, starting from the position shown in fig. 3, when the second lever 42 moves to the right, the left inner edge 44-1 of the second slot 44 engages with the first pin 110 or the second pin 210 and pushes the interlocking device 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 to move to the right, returning them to the intermediate position shown in fig. 4, in which the first movable contact 160 and said second movable contact 260 are simultaneously in the open state.
Starting from the neutral position in fig. 4, when the second lever 42 is moved leftward, the left inner edge 44-2 of the second slot 44 engages with the first pin 110 or the second pin 210 and pushes the interlock device 3, the first pin 110, and the second pin 210 to move leftward.
On the second switch unit 2 side, the second handle 21 is rotated clockwise from the position shown in fig. 4, and the second elastic member 23 applies a rotational moment to the second master link 24 and rotates it counterclockwise. The rotational movement of the second main link 24 drives the second movable contact assembly 26 to rotate clockwise toward the closing direction through the second secondary link 25 until the second movable contact 260 reaches the closing state shown in fig. 5, at which time the second movable contact 260 communicates with the electrical connection between the second power source fixed contact 27 and the load second terminal 28.
On the first switch unit 1 side, the first handle 11 is rotated counterclockwise from the position shown in fig. 4. Since the first movable contact assembly 16 is held against the first trip stopper 101, that is, the first trip stopper 101 blocks the counterclockwise rotation of the first movable contact assembly 16, the first elastic member 13 is stretched but does not rotate the first main link 14 and the first sub-link 15, and the first movable contact 160 is maintained in the trip state as shown in fig. 5.
Contrary to the above described procedure, starting from the position shown in fig. 5, when the first lever 41 is moved to the left, the right inner edge 43-2 of the first slot 43 engages with the first pin 110 or the second pin 210 and pushes the interlocking device 3, the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 to move to the left, returning them to the intermediate position shown in fig. 4, in which the first movable contact 160 and said second movable contact 260 are simultaneously in the open state.
It is worth noting that due to the presence of the interlocking device 3, the first handle 11 and the first pin 110 and the second pin 210 of the second handle 21 are always close to each other during the movement, so that at most only one of the first switching unit 1 and the second switching unit 2 can be in the closed state, without the occurrence of the situation where both switching units are in the closed state.
Further features of the invention can be found in the claims, the figures and the description of the figures.
