In particular, it is preferred that the electromagnetic actuator 2 drives the button mechanism 1 to close, and the electromagnetic actuator 2 is adapted to cooperate with the linearly moving button mechanism 1.

As a technical solution of the present invention, preferably, the circuit breaker further includes a release 7, and the release 7 acts to trigger the lever mechanism 6 to release, so as to open the circuit breaker, thereby implementing remote control of automatic opening of the circuit breaker. The automatic opening and closing of the remote control circuit breaker are realized through the matching of the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 and the button mechanism 1 and the matching of the release 7 and the lever mechanism 6.

As another technical solution of the present invention, it is preferable that the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 cooperates with the button mechanism 1 to drive the circuit breaker to open and close. When the breaker is in an opening state, the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 triggers and drives the button mechanism 1 when receiving a closing command, so that the button mechanism 1 slides and drives the breaker to close through the lever mechanism 6; meanwhile, in a closing state of the circuit breaker, the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 triggers and drives the button mechanism 1 when receiving a switching-off command, so that the button mechanism 1 slides and drives the circuit breaker to switch off through the lever mechanism 6.

The electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 triggers and drives the button mechanism 1 when receiving a closing command, so that the button mechanism 1 slides and drives the circuit breaker to close through the lever mechanism 6, and the automatic closing of the remote control circuit breaker is realized; and the release 7 acts to trigger the lever mechanism 6 to release when receiving a switching-off command, so that the circuit breaker is switched off, and the automatic switching-off of the circuit breaker is remotely controlled.

Preferably, the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 and the release 7 can receive a switching-on signal and a switching-off signal of an upper computer, such as an intelligent terminal, an electric energy meter, a switch cabinet and the like, through a signal terminal 5 arranged on the circuit breaker housing 3. Alternatively, the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 and the trip unit 7 can also receive a closing signal and an opening signal of a microcontroller inside the circuit breaker.

Preferably, the circuit breaker further comprises an overload release 8, the lever mechanism 6 comprises a snap-fit jump buckle 64 and a lock catch 65, the overload release 8 comprises a bimetallic strip, and the bimetallic strip is bent and driven when in overload to drive the lock catch 65 on the lever mechanism 6, so that the lever mechanism 6 is released to realize circuit breaker opening.

As shown in fig. 2, the trip unit 7 includes a shunt trip unit 72 at the front end and a short-circuit protection trip unit 73 at the rear end, wherein the shunt trip unit 72 can be tripped by the control signal triggering lever mechanism 6, the short-circuit protection mechanism 73 can trigger the lever mechanism 6 to trip when a short-circuit fault occurs in the line, and the shunt trip unit 72 and the short-circuit protection trip unit 73 are of an integrated structure.

As shown in fig. 2, the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 includes an electromagnetic main body provided with a coil 22 and a linkage rod 21, and the electromagnetic main body drives the button mechanism 1 through the linkage rod 21 to open the circuit breaker. As shown in fig. 2, in an embodiment in which the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 is matched with the button mechanism 1, the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 includes an electromagnetic main body provided with a coil 22 and an iron linkage rod 21, the linkage rod 21 is made of a material capable of being magnetically attracted, the button mechanism 1 includes a button 101 provided with a button groove 102, the button 101 is drivingly connected with the lever mechanism 6 through a first connecting rod 106, one end of the linkage rod 21 is connected to the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 or the housing 3 and can swing around the end (a direct-acting type can also be provided), and the other end of the linkage rod 21 is installed in the button groove 102 of the button 101.

As shown in fig. 2, the circuit breaker is in a switching-off state, when the circuit breaker is automatically switched on, when a coil 22 of the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 is powered on, the linkage rod 21 is attracted by the action of a coil magnetic field to drive the button 101 to move towards the inside of the circuit breaker, when the button 101 moves, the rotating part 61 is driven to rotate clockwise by the first connecting rod 106 to drive the connecting rod mechanism 6 to make the moving contact 10 contact with the static contact 11 for switching on, so that automatic switching-on is realized, when the coil of the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 is powered off, the linkage rod 21 is reset by the linkage rod reset spring, and certainly, a multiple linkage rod. The circuit breaker is now in the closed state shown in fig. 3.

As shown in fig. 3, when the circuit breaker is in a closed state and automatic opening is performed, the release 7 is powered on, the ejector rod 71 in the release 7 acts to push the latch 65 of the lever mechanism 6 to rotate counterclockwise, the hasp connection between the latch 65 and the trip catch 63 is released, the lever mechanism 6 is tripped to realize opening of the circuit breaker, and the button spring drives the button 101 to reset.

As shown in fig. 3, the circuit breaker is in a closing state, when the circuit breaker is manually opened, the button 101 is manually pulled to move towards the outside of the circuit breaker, when the button 101 moves, the rotating member 61 is driven to rotate counterclockwise by the first connecting rod 106, the connecting rod mechanism 6 is driven to separate the moving contact 10 from the static contact 11, so that manual opening is realized, meanwhile, the button 101 also drives the linkage rod 21 to rotate to a position relatively far away from the electromagnetic main body, and at this time, the circuit breaker is in the closing state shown in fig. 3.

Another improvement point of the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 adopting the scheme is that how to avoid the influence of the automatic opening and closing device on the manual opening and closing operation does not need to be considered like the automatic opening and closing scheme of the existing motor and gear mechanism. According to the existing automatic switching-on and switching-off scheme of the motor and the gear mechanism, a microswitch or a contact or a sensor needs to be set to monitor the switching-on position, the switching-off position and/or the initial position of the motor or the gear, the gear needs to be stopped or reversed after rotating to the corresponding position, and a corresponding avoiding mechanism needs to be arranged on the gear mechanism or the button mechanism, so that the switching-off or switching-on operation can still be carried out by driving the button mechanism in a manual mode after the motor and the gear mechanism drive the circuit breaker to be switched on or switched off. The electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 of the scheme does not need to be designed correspondingly, the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 only has two states of an attraction linkage rod 21 and a non-attraction linkage rod 21, the button 101 is driven to realize closing when the linkage rod 21 is attracted, then the coil 22 of the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 is powered off, the linkage rod 21 is not attracted any more, the button 101 can be pulled manually, the linkage rod 21 is driven by the button 101 to swing and reset, meanwhile, the rotating part 61 is driven by the first connecting rod 106 to rotate anticlockwise to realize manual opening and closing, the button 101 can be pressed again to realize manual closing, the structure is simple, and the mutual influence is avoided.

As another embodiment, the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 may also drive the linkage rod 21 in a manner of a top rod, the linkage rod 21 may be a non-magnetic attracted plastic part, the linkage rod 21 is rotatably installed in the circuit breaker housing 3, one end of the linkage rod is arranged corresponding to the top rod of the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2, the other end of the linkage rod is arranged corresponding to the button mechanism 1, and the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 is powered on and impacts one end of the linkage rod 21 through the top rod, so that the other end of the linkage rod 21 drives the button mechanism 1 to move for switching-on operation.

As another embodiment, a sliding groove for the linkage rod 21 to slide linearly is formed in the circuit breaker housing, one end of the linkage rod 21 is arranged corresponding to the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2, the other end of the linkage rod 21 is matched with the button mechanism 1, and the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 is powered to drive the linkage rod 21 to slide, so that the linkage rod 21 drives the button mechanism 1 to move to close the switch. The electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 is electrified to attract the linkage rod 21 to slide, and the button mechanism 1 is pulled to be switched on through a draw hook on the linkage rod 21; or, the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 is electrified to impact the linkage rod 21 to slide, and the linkage rod 21 pushes the button mechanism 1 to be switched on. After the electromagnetic actuating mechanism 2 is powered off, the linkage rod 21 is reset through a linkage rod spring, or is driven by the button mechanism 1 to reset when the brake is switched off again.

As another degradation example, two electromagnetic actuating mechanisms 2 may be provided, one for driving the button mechanism 1 to perform a closing operation and one for driving the button mechanism 1 to perform an opening operation, without triggering the opening through the release 7, so that too many mechanisms are adopted, and the circuit breaker has a large volume and high cost.
