Detailed Description
Preferred embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. While the preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are illustrated in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure may be embodied in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art.
The term "comprising" and variations thereof as used herein means open ended, i.e., "including but not limited to. The term "or" means "and/or" unless specifically stated otherwise. The term "based on" means "based at least in part on". The terms "one example embodiment" and "one embodiment" mean "at least one example embodiment. The term "another embodiment" means "at least one additional embodiment". The terms "first," "second," and the like, may refer to different or the same object.
As described above, in the conventional dual power conversion switch device, the on and off of the two power supplies are controlled by two circuit breakers, each of which controls one power supply, and the two circuit breakers are often close together, and when an operator manually pulls the switch, the operator may inadvertently cause the two power supplies to be simultaneously turned on, and the risk is high.
In view of the above, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a dual-power transfer switch device and a power distribution cabinet. The double power conversion switch device includes a first circuit breaker 100a, a second circuit breaker 100b, a first stopper 41 and a second stopper 42, as shown in fig. 1 to 16.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 1, the first circuit breaker 100a and the second circuit breaker 100b are disposed in parallel, and may be connected by a screw 101 or a rivet. By means of the arrangement, space occupation can be reduced, the dual-power transfer switch equipment can be installed in a distribution box of standard specifications, a cabinet body of a special size does not need to be purchased, and applicability is higher.
As shown in fig. 1 to 7, each of the first and second circuit breakers 100a and 100b includes a housing 10, a handle 20, and a latch assembly 30, wherein the handle 20 and the latch assembly 30 constitute an operating mechanism of the circuit breaker.
The housing 10 is typically made of an insulating material, and the housing 10 not only provides physical protection and support for the electrical and mechanical components inside the circuit breaker, but also serves as a mount, insulation, heat dissipation, etc. The housing 10 ensures the safety of the circuit breaker in installation and operation and is provided with terminals for wiring and interfaces for mounting accessories.
The handle 20 is part of a circuit breaker operating mechanism rotatably coupled to the housing 10, allowing a user to manually control the on-off state of the circuit breaker. The handle 20 is connected to a contact system inside the circuit breaker by a mechanical transmission such as a latch assembly 30. When the switch is used, the handle of the circuit breaker can be switched from the switch-off position to the switch-on position, and the handle of the circuit breaker can also be switched from the switch-on position to the switch-off position. The opening position is that the fixed contact 15 and the moving contact 393 of the circuit breaker are disconnected and the circuit is not conducted any more, so that the current flow is cut off, and the isolation of the circuit is realized. The closing position refers to the closing of the fixed contact 15 and the moving contact 393 of the circuit breaker, allowing the current to pass, so as to put the circuit in the on state.
As shown in fig. 3, 5, 7 and 8, the latch assembly 30 is located inside the housing 10 and is a safety control mechanism having one end coupled to the handle 20 and synchronously operated with the movement of the handle 20. The latch assembly 30 functions to ensure that the circuit breaker is not closed by an unexpected or improper operation under certain conditions (e.g., overload, short circuit, etc.), or to lock the handle 20 when it is desired to maintain the open state, preventing the circuit from being re-closed by an erroneous operation. Meanwhile, the locking assembly 30 also participates in the normal switching operation process of the circuit breaker, guides and positions the actions of the handle 20, and ensures accurate opening and closing of the fixed contact 15 and the movable contact 393. In the embodiment of the disclosure, the fixed contact 15 is disposed in the housing 10, and the movable contact 393 is coupled to an end of the latch assembly 30 remote from the handle 20, and the fixed contact 15 and the movable contact 393 are components of the contact system.
In the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 9 to 16, the dual power conversion switch apparatus further includes a first stopper 41 and a second stopper 42. The first stopper 41 is coupled to the latch assembly 30 of the first circuit breaker 100a to move with the latch assembly 30 of the first circuit breaker 100a, and the first stopper 41 is configured with a locking slot 411. The second stopper 42 is coupled to the latch assembly 30 of the second circuit breaker 100b to move with the latch assembly 30 of the second circuit breaker 100 b. When the handle 20 of the first circuit breaker 100a is at the closing position, the second stopper 42 is staggered from the locking slot 411; and the second stopper 42 is inserted into the locking slot 411 to prevent the movement of the first stopper 41 in the case that the handle 20 of the second circuit breaker 100b is at the closing position.
As shown in fig. 3,5 and 7, in the first and second circuit breakers 100a and 100b, the handles 20 are coupled with the respective corresponding latch assemblies 30. In the latch assembly 30, the motion trajectories of different portions are different. In the embodiment of the disclosure, the first limiting member 41 and the second limiting member 42 are respectively coupled at different positions of the two latch assemblies 30 to realize different spatial displacement, so that the first limiting member 41 and the second limiting member 42 can be interlocked and unlocked.
As shown in fig. 9 and 10, when the handle 20 of the first circuit breaker 100a is in the closing position (i.e., the circuit is completed), the second stopper 42 is offset from the locking slot 411 on the first stopper 41. The movement of the second stopper 42 is blocked by the first stopper 41 and cannot be moved. Since the second stopper 42 is interlocked with the handle 20 and the latch assembly 30 of the second circuit breaker 100b, the handle 20 of the second circuit breaker 100b cannot be switched to the closing position.
As shown in fig. 13 and 14, when the handle 20 of the second circuit breaker 100b is at the closing position, the second stopper 42 is inserted into the locking slot 411 of the first stopper 41, and at this time, the second stopper 42 can move along the locking slot 411 in the original sliding direction. The handle 20 of the second circuit breaker 100b can be switched between the closing position and the opening position, but at this time, the second stopper 42 is engaged with the locking slot 411, and the movement of the first stopper 41 is restricted. Since the first limiting member 41 is coupled with the handle 20 and the latch assembly 30 of the first circuit breaker 100a, the handle 20 of the first circuit breaker 100a cannot be switched to the closing position.
By means of the arrangement, the dual-power transfer switching device provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can avoid the simultaneous conduction of two paths of power supplies, and is high in safety.
In some embodiments, a first chute 11 and a second chute 12 communicating with each other are configured between adjacent sides of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a and the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100 b. The first stopper 41 is located in the first chute 11 and is movable in a sliding direction defined by the first chute 11. The second stopper 42 is located in the second chute 12 and is capable of sliding movement defined along the second chute 12.
As shown in fig. 2,4, 6, and 9 to 14, a first slide groove 11 and a second slide groove 12 are constructed between adjacent sides of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a and the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b, the first slide groove 11 and the second slide groove 12 intersect on a plane, and the first slide groove 11 and the second slide groove 12 communicate with each other. When the first limiting member 41 is positioned in the first chute 11, it can move along the sliding direction defined by the first chute 11; the second stop member 42 is movable in a sliding direction defined by the two slide grooves when it is positioned in the second slide groove 12. In the communication position of the first chute 11 and the second chute 12, both the first stopper 41 and the second stopper 42 are accessible. When the locking slot 411 of the first stopper 41 corresponds to the above-described communication position, the second stopper 42 can be inserted into the locking slot 411. When the locking slot 411 of the first stopper 41 avoids the above-mentioned communication position, the second stopper 42 is blocked by other portions of the first stopper 41.
In some embodiments, the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a is provided with a first through hole 13 at a position corresponding to the first chute 11, and the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b is provided with a second through hole 14 at a position corresponding to the second chute 12; the first stopper 41 is coupled to the latch assembly 30 of the first circuit breaker 100a along the first through hole 13, and the second stopper 42 is coupled to the latch assembly 30 of the second circuit breaker 100b along the second through hole 14. As shown in fig. 4 and 6, the first through hole 13 is connected to the inside of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a and the first chute 11, and the latch assembly 30 of the first circuit breaker 100a can be connected to the first limiting member 41 through a mechanical structure, so as to drive the first limiting member 41 to move along the first chute 11. The second through hole 14 is connected to the inside of the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b and the second chute 12, and the latch assembly 30 of the second circuit breaker 100b may be connected to the second limiting member 42 through a mechanical structure, so as to drive the second limiting member 42 to move along the second chute 12.
In some alternative embodiments, the first runner 11 is not in communication with the interior of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100 a. A first magnetic member is disposed on the latch assembly 30 in the first circuit breaker 100a, a second magnetic member is disposed on the first stopper 41, and the first stopper 41 is made of an insulating material. The latch assembly 30 can drive the first limiting member 41 to move along the first chute 11 through the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100 a.
The above two implementations are equally applicable to the second chute 12 and the second circuit breaker 100b.
In some embodiments, at least one of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a and the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b is provided with a first chute 11 and a second chute 12.
As shown in fig. 2,4, 6, and 9 to 14, the arrangement of the first chute 11 and the second chute 12 includes at least three cases:
First, the first chute 11 and the second chute 12 are formed by recessing the surface of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a (the chute may or may not be connected to the inside of the housing 10), while the surface of the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b is a planar structure, and the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b is used for limiting the release of the limiting member.
As shown in fig. 2 and 4, the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a has a certain thickness, a surface of the side of the housing 10 facing the second circuit breaker 100b is recessed inward to form a first slide groove 11 and a second slide groove 12, and a depth of the first slide groove 11 and the second slide groove 12 with respect to the surface of the housing 10 is smaller than the thickness of the housing 10. The first and second stoppers 41 and 42 may have a thin plate structure, and the thicknesses of the stoppers may be equal to or less than the depths of the first and second sliding grooves 11 and 12, and thus may slide in the first and second sliding grooves 11 and 12 formed on the surface of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100 a. The side of the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b facing the first circuit breaker 100a has a planar structure, and when the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a is in close contact with the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b, the planar structure of the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b can seal the first stopper 41 and the second stopper 42 in the first chute 11 and the second chute 12, so that the stopper can be prevented from coming out. Meanwhile, the groove wall of the first chute 11, the groove wall of the second chute 12 and the surface of the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b together form a limiting and guiding structure when the first limiting member 41 and the second limiting member 42 move.
In some embodiments, the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a has a certain thickness, the surface of the side of the housing 10 facing the second circuit breaker 100b is recessed inward to form the first sliding groove 11 and the second sliding groove 12, and the first sliding groove 11 and the second sliding groove 12 penetrate through the interior of the housing 10. In this design, in order to prevent the first and second stoppers 41 and 42 from falling into the interior of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a, spaced or continuous stopper bosses may be provided in the interior of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a, which are provided at the edges of the housing 10 corresponding to the walls of the first and second sliding grooves 11 and 12. Of course, a first concave or convex guide rail may be disposed on the groove walls of the first chute 11 and the second chute 12, and a second convex or concave guide rail may be disposed on the edges of the first stopper 41 and the second stopper 42, so that the stopper moves along the sliding direction defined by the chute through the cooperation of the first guide rail and the second guide rail, and does not fall into the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a during the movement.
Second, the first chute 11 and the second chute 12 are formed by recessing the surface of the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b (may or may not be connected to the inside of the housing 10), while the surface of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a is a planar structure, and the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a is used for limiting the release of the limiting member.
As shown in fig. 6, the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b has a thickness, a surface of the housing 10 facing a side of the first circuit breaker 100a is recessed inward to form a first slide groove 11 and a second slide groove 12, and a depth of the first slide groove 11 and the second slide groove 12 with respect to the surface of the housing 10 is smaller than the thickness of the housing 10. The first and second stoppers 41 and 42 may have a thin plate structure, and have a thickness equal to or less than the depth of the first and second sliding grooves 11 and 12, and may slide in the first and second sliding grooves 11 and 12 formed on the surface of the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100 b. When the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a is in close contact with the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b, the planar structure of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a can seal the first stopper 41 and the second stopper 42 in the first chute 11 and the second chute 12, and the stopper can be prevented from coming out. Meanwhile, the groove wall of the first chute 11, the groove wall of the second chute 12 and the surface of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a together form a limiting and guiding structure when the first limiting member 41 and the second limiting member 42 move.
Third, the surface of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a and the surface of the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b are both configured with a first chute 11 and a second chute 12, and two limiting members are located in the chute formed after the two housings 10 are buckled.
As shown in fig. 4 and 6, the surface of the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a and the surface of the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b are each configured with a first slide groove 11 and a second slide groove 12, and the positions of the first slide groove 11 and the second slide groove 12 on both sides correspond. When the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a is closely attached to the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b, the first chute 11 and the second chute 12 on both sides are buckled together to form a whole. The limiting piece can be of a thin plate structure, and the thickness of the limiting piece is smaller than or equal to the total depth of the sliding grooves on the two sides, but larger than the depth of the sliding grooves on the single side. The groove wall of the first chute 11, the groove wall of the second chute 12, the groove bottom of the first chute 11 and the groove bottom of the second chute 12 together form a limiting and guiding structure when the first limiting piece 41 and the second limiting piece 42 move.
In some embodiments, the dual power conversion switch device may further include a separator. The partition is provided between the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a and the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b, and the partition is configured with a first chute 11 and a second chute 12 penetrating through the partition. In such an embodiment, there is no need to machine a chute in the housing 10 of the first circuit breaker 100a and in the housing 10 of the second circuit breaker 100b, but a partition member is provided between the first circuit breaker 100a and the second circuit breaker 100b, and the partition member may be a thin plate structure, the thickness of which is adapted to the stopper member. The first chute 11 and the second chute 12 are arranged on the partition piece, and the process is simpler.
In some embodiments, the sliding direction of the first chute 11 and the sliding direction of the second chute 12 are perpendicular to each other.
As shown in fig. 2,4, 6 and 9 to 14, the first chute 11 and the second chute 12 are rectangular grooves, and the sliding directions of the two are perpendicular to each other. Correspondingly, the first limiting member 41 and the second limiting member 42 have a rectangular structure as a whole. With this arrangement, the resistance of the stopper sliding is small (compared with an arc shape or other abnormal shape), and the misalignment of the first stopper 41 and the second stopper 42 is clear, which facilitates smooth insertion or sliding of the second stopper 42 out of the locking slot 411 of the first stopper 41.
In some embodiments, a side of the first limiting member 41 facing the second limiting member 42 is provided with a locking slot 411, and the locking slot 411 avoids an end position of the first limiting member 41.
As shown in fig. 9,10, 15 and 16, when the handle 20 of the first circuit breaker 100a is at the closing position, the end of the first stopper 41 moves to the communication position of the first chute 11 and the second chute 12, and the end of the first stopper 41 blocks the movement of the second stopper 42.
As shown in fig. 11, 12, 15 and 16, when the first and second circuit breakers 100a and 100b are both in the open position, the locking slot 411 of the first stopper 41 moves to the communication position of the first and second slide grooves 11 and 12, and the end of the second stopper 42 is disengaged from the locking slot 411 of the first stopper 41. At this time, both the first stopper 41 and the second stopper 42 may move, and it is possible to selectively switch the handle of the first circuit breaker 100a to the closing position or switch the handle of the second circuit breaker 100b to the closing position, but both cannot move at the same time.
As shown in fig. 13, 14, 15 and 16, when the handle 20 of the first circuit breaker 100a is at the opening position, the locking slot 411 of the first stopper 41 moves to the communication position of the first chute 11 and the second chute 12, the locking slot 411 of the first stopper 41 corresponds to the end of the second stopper 42, the locking slot 411 allows the second stopper 42 to be inserted into the locking slot 411, and the handle 20 of the second circuit breaker 100b can be closed.
In some embodiments, the end of the second limiting member 42 facing the first limiting member 41 is provided with a limiting portion 421, and the cross-sectional area of the limiting portion 421 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the end of the second limiting member 42 along the direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the second sliding chute 12.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 16, the size of the limiting portion 421 is smaller, and at this time, the smaller stroke of the first limiting member 41 can be used to block the movement of the second limiting member 42 or allow the movement of the second limiting member 42. The size of the limiting portion 421 may be determined based on the stroke difference of different portions of the latch assembly 30 when the handle 20 is switched from the opening position to the closing position, or an appropriate portion for connecting the first limiting member 41 to the latch assembly 30 may be selected when the size of the limiting portion 421 is determined.
In some embodiments, latch assembly 30 includes a bracket 31, a first shaft 32, a first retaining member 33, a second shaft 34, a second retaining member 35, a third shaft 36, a contact support 37, and a connector 38.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 3, 5 and 8, the contact support 37 and the bracket 31 are both rotatably connected to the housing 10 about the first axis 32, and the contact support 37 and the bracket 31 are independent of each other. A contact spring 392 is further provided on the outer side of the first shaft 32, and the contact spring 392 is connected to the contact support 37 and the bracket 31 at the same time, so that the bracket 31 and the contact support 37 can move synchronously around the first shaft 32 and can provide a buffering effect. The first locker 33 is rotatably connected to the bracket 31 about the second shaft 34, and the first locker 33 is further configured with a supporting portion 331 and a body portion 332. The supporting portion 331 may be a cantilever structure, and an included angle may be formed between the supporting portion 331 and the body portion 332. The second locker 35 is rotatably coupled to the bracket 31 around the third shaft 36 to be snap-coupled to the supporting portion 331 of the first locker 33. The first stopper 41 is coupled to the body portion 332 of the first circuit breaker 100a, and the second stopper 42 is coupled to the second shaft 34 of the second circuit breaker 100 b. A movable contact 393 is mounted to one end of the contact support 37, and a stationary contact 15 is mounted to the housing 10. A first end of the link 38 is rotatably connected to the handle 20 and a second end of the link 38 is rotatably connected to the first locking member 33.
As shown in fig. 3 and 5, in switching the handle 20 from the opening position to the closing position, the contact support 37, the bracket 31, the second locker 35, the second shaft 34, and the third shaft 36 are rotated clockwise around the first shaft 32 while the first locker 33 is rotated clockwise around the second shaft 34. The second locking member 35 rotates clockwise around the third shaft 36 by the supporting portion 331. When the handle 20 reaches the closing position, an extension line of the first end of the connecting member 38 corresponds to the rotation axis of the handle 20, and an extension line of the second end of the connecting member 38 corresponds to the third axis 36 of the second locking member 35. With this arrangement, the handle 20 and the second locking member 35 can be balanced in torque and locked in position and stay in the closed position. The handle 20 will switch from the closed position to the open position only if the torque balance is destroyed under the intervention of an external force (active brake release or pushing by the trip mechanism in the event of an accident).
As shown in fig. 3, 5 and 7, in the latch assembly 30, the movement trace of the second shaft 34 is different from that of the body portion 332 of the first latch member 33. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the interlocking and unlocking of the first and second stoppers 41 and 42 may be achieved by driving the first stopper 41 along the first chute 11 with the body portion 332 of the first circuit breaker 100a and driving the second stopper 42 along the second chute 12 with the second shaft 34 of the second circuit breaker 100 b.
In some embodiments, the body portion 332 of the first circuit breaker 100a is configured with a boss 333, and the boss 333 may be a long cylindrical structure. The first stopper 41 is configured with a first connection hole 412, the boss 333 is inserted into the first connection hole 412 and the first through hole 13, and the size of the boss 333 is smaller than the size of the first through hole 13 and the size of the first connection hole 412. The second stopper 42 is configured with a second connection hole 422, the second shaft 34 of the second circuit breaker 100b is inserted into the second connection hole 422 and the second through hole 14, and the size of the second shaft 34 is smaller than the size of the second through hole 14 and the size of the second connection hole 422.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 9 to 16, the body portion 332 of the first circuit breaker 100a rotates about the second shaft 34, and thus the movement trace of the boss 333 is arc-shaped. The second shaft 34 rotates about the first shaft 32, and thus the movement trace of the second shaft 34 is also arc-shaped. In order to enable the boss 333 to drive the first stopper 41 to move along the first chute 11, the size (e.g., aperture) of the first through hole 13 and the size (e.g., aperture) of the first connection hole 412 are larger than the size (e.g., diameter) of the boss 333, i.e., the boss 333 is allowed to move in an arc shape, and the first stopper 41 moves in a straight line.
Similarly, to enable the second shaft 34 to drive the second stopper 42 along the second chute 12, the second shaft 34 has a size (e.g., diameter) smaller than the size (e.g., aperture) of the second through hole 14 and the size (e.g., aperture) of the second connecting hole 422, i.e., the second shaft 34 is allowed to move in an arc shape, while the second stopper 42 moves in a straight line.
In a second aspect of the present disclosure, a power distribution cabinet is provided. The power distribution cabinet comprises a cabinet body and double-power-supply transfer switch equipment provided according to the first aspect of the disclosure.
According to the power distribution cabinet provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the dual power conversion switch device of the power distribution cabinet includes a first circuit breaker 100a, a second circuit breaker 100b, a first limiting member 41 and a second limiting member 42. When the handle 20 of the first circuit breaker 100a and the handle 20 of the second circuit breaker 100b are switched between the opening position and the closing position, the respective latch assemblies 30 are driven to move synchronously, and the movement paths of different parts of the latch assemblies 30 are different in the closing process. The first stopper 41 is coupled to the latch assembly 30 of the first circuit breaker 100a, the second stopper 42 is coupled to the latch assembly 30 of the second circuit breaker 100b, and a locking slot 411 is configured on the first stopper 41. When the second stopper 42 is offset from the locking slot 411 of the first stopper 41, the second stopper 42 is prevented from moving by other portions of the first stopper 41; in the case where the second stopper 42 is inserted into the locking slot 411, the second stopper 42 may move while the first stopper 41 is prevented from moving. The first limiting member 41, the second limiting member 42, and the corresponding latch assembly 30 and the handle 20 are coupled. With this arrangement, in the case where the handle 20 of the first circuit breaker 100a is in the closing position, the second stopper 42 is staggered from the locking slot 411, and at this time, the handle 20 of the second circuit breaker 100b cannot be moved, so that the handle of the second circuit breaker 100b cannot be switched to the closing position; while, in the case that the handle 20 of the second circuit breaker 100b is at the closing position, the second stopper 42 is inserted into the locking slot 411, and at this time, the first stopper 41 is prevented from moving, so that the handle of the first circuit breaker 100a cannot be switched to the closing position. Therefore, the dual-power transfer switching equipment provided by the embodiment of the disclosure can avoid that two paths of power supplies are conducted simultaneously, and has higher safety.
The disclosed embodiments are intended to embrace all such alternatives, modifications and variances which fall within the broad scope of the appended claims. Accordingly, any omissions, modifications, equivalents, improvements, and the like, which are within the spirit and principles of the embodiments of the disclosure, are intended to be included within the scope of the disclosure.
