In this embodiment, the in-place closing of the circuit breaker means that the lever 3 is driven to a closing position, the lever 3 drives the operating mechanism 5 to complete a closing action, and the in-place closing of the transmission mechanism means that after the first incomplete gear 1 is separated from the second incomplete gear 2, the second incomplete gear 2 is reset, and the first incomplete gear 1 rotates to the closing position; the breaker is in place, namely the lever is driven to the opening position, the lever 3 drives the operating mechanism 5 to complete the opening action, and the transmission mechanism is in place, namely after the first incomplete gear 1 is separated from the second incomplete gear 2, the second incomplete gear 2 resets and the first incomplete gear 1 rotates to the opening position, so that the transmission mechanism still needs to rotate for a period of time to meet the opening position or to open the opening position when the breaker is in place for opening or closing.

The specific working process is as follows:

take the example that the second microswitch K2 is arranged at the switching-on position of the lever 3, and the second microswitch K2 is linked with the button of the third microswitch K3, wherein the second microswitch K2 controls the normally closed contact, and the third microswitch K3 controls the normally open contact.

The process from the opening in place to the closing in place of the transmission mechanism comprises the following steps: when the switching-off state is achieved (the transmission mechanism and the circuit breaker are both in the switching-off state), the tail end 112 of the first sector gear part 11 abuts against the button of the first microswitch K1 to make the auxiliary circuit in the off state, the end of the lever 3 is not pressed on the buttons of the second microswitch K2 and the third microswitch K3 to make the switching-on circuit conducted, the switching-off circuit is disconnected, and at this time, the switching-on voltage is applied to the control circuit, current flows through the switching-on circuit, the current direction is from left to right in fig. 12 and 13, the motor M performs the switching-on rotation, the transmission mechanism connected with the motor M also performs the switching-on rotation, as shown in fig. 4, the tail end 112 of the first sector gear part 11 is separated from the button of the first microswitch K1 to make the auxiliary circuit conducted (see fig. 13), the head end 111 of the first sector gear part 11 is engaged with the head end 231 of the second sector gear part 23 located at the initial position, to drive the second incomplete gear 2 to perform closing rotation, when the second incomplete gear 2 performs closing rotation, the closing part 221 pushes the first blocking part 31 to make the lever 3 perform closing rotation until the lever 3 drives the operating mechanism 5 through the connecting rod 54 to complete closing action (at this time, the circuit breaker has completed the action process from opening to closing), and at the same time, as shown in fig. 6, the movable limiting part 26 rotating together with the second incomplete gear 2 pushes the first elastic arm 41 of the return spring 4 to gradually increase the distance between the first elastic arm 41 and the second elastic arm 42 to store energy; after the first sector gear part 11 is separated from the tail end 232 of the second sector gear part 23, the reset spring 4 releases the energy to enable the first elastic arm 41 to reversely push the limiting part 26 to drive the second incomplete gear 2 to rotate back to the initial position, in the process that the second incomplete gear 2 rotates back to the initial position, the lever 3 which is already at the switching-on position is not pushed, but the switching-off part 222 of the second incomplete gear 2 is close to or attached to the second stopping part 32 of the lever 3, meanwhile, the lever 3 which is at the switching-on position simultaneously triggers the second microswitch K2 and the third microswitch K3, so that the conduction states of the switching-on circuit and the switching-off circuit are switched, namely, the switching-on circuit is switched off, when the lever 3 just touches the second microswitch K2, and at the stroke error of the microswitch and the switching-on, the lever 3 can trigger the second microswitch K2 in advance before being in place, however, at this time, the first incomplete gear 1 or the lever 3 cannot be ensured at the switching-on position, and therefore, it is necessary to keep the motor M rotating for a while through the auxiliary line, but the switching-on voltage cannot flow through the switching-off line due to the unidirectional conduction of the diode D3, at this time, if the first incomplete gear 1 separated from the second incomplete gear 2 does not rotate to the switching-on position, at this time, the switching-on voltage may drive the motor M to rotate continuously through the auxiliary line still in the conducting state until the first incomplete gear 1 rotates to the switching-on position, so that the head end 111 of the first sector gear 11 abuts against the button of the first microswitch K1 to disconnect the auxiliary line, the motor M is stopped due to the loss of power, and at this time, the transmission mechanism is switched on in place (see fig. 3 and 14).

The process from the closing in place to the opening in place of the transmission mechanism is as follows: when the circuit breaker is in a closed state (the transmission mechanism and the circuit breaker are both in a closed state), the head end 111 of the first fan-shaped gear part 11 abuts against the button of the first microswitch K1 to make the auxiliary circuit in a disconnected state, the side wall of the lever 3 presses the buttons of the second microswitch K2 and the third microswitch K3 to make the opening circuit and the closing circuit in a disconnected state, the opening voltage with the polarity opposite to the closing voltage is applied to the control loop, the current flows through the opening circuit, the current direction is from right to left in fig. 14 and 15, the motor M performs opening rotation, the transmission mechanism connected with the motor M also performs opening rotation, along with the opening rotation of the first incomplete gear 1, the head end 111 of the first fan-shaped gear part 11 is separated from the button of the first microswitch K1 to make the auxiliary circuit in a connected state (see fig. 15), the tail end 112 of the first fan-shaped gear part 11 pushes the head end 231 of the second fan-shaped gear part 23 located at the initial position to perform opening rotation, so that the opening part 222 of the second incomplete gear 2 pushes the second blocking part 32 to make the lever 3 perform opening rotation, during the opening rotation of the lever 3, the lever 3 is separated from the buttons of the second microswitch K2 and the third microswitch K3, at this time, the opening line is conducted, the closing line is disconnected, however, the switching-off voltage cannot flow through the switching-on line due to the unidirectional conduction of the diode D2, the switching-off voltage drives the motor M to continue switching-off rotation only through the conducted auxiliary line, so that the lever 3 can continue to perform opening rotation until the lever 3 drives the operating mechanism 5 to complete opening (at the moment, the circuit breaker completes the action process from closing in place to opening in place), meanwhile, as shown in fig. 7, the movement limiting portion 26 rotating together with the second incomplete gear 2 pushes the second elastic arm 42 of the return spring 4, so that the distance between the first elastic arm 41 and the second elastic arm 42 is gradually increased to store energy; after the tail end 112 of the first sector gear part 11 is separated from the head end 231 of the second sector gear part 23, the return spring 4 releases the energy to make the second elastic arm 42 reversely push the motion-limiting part 26 to drive the second incomplete gear 2 to rotate back to the initial position, and in the process that the second incomplete gear 2 rotates back to the initial position, the lever 3 which is already at the opening position is not pushed, but the closing part 221 of the second incomplete gear 2 is close to or attached to the first stopping part 31 of the lever 3, and at the same time, after the opening rotation of the motor M drives the first incomplete gear 1 to be separated from the second incomplete gear 2, the tail end 112 of the first sector gear part 11 is abutted against the button of the first microswitch K1 to disconnect the auxiliary circuit, the motor M is stopped due to power loss, and the transmission mechanism is opened to the right position (see fig. 4 and 12). In the process, the conduction time of the switching-off line is obviously shorter than that of the switching-on line.
