The moving contact rotating frame 1 is provided with a physical partition structure for cutting off electric arcs, the physical partition structure comprises at least one group of insulating chucks 3, and the group of insulating chucks 3 consists of two insulating chucks 3 which are arranged oppositely and at least partially insulated; and at least one group of insulating chucks 3 are positioned in the moving area 101, and the two oppositely arranged insulating chucks 3 have a first state of separating to form a gap between the two for the static contact 5 to rotate and a second state of combining to cut off the disjunctive electric arc.
Further, at least part of the physical partition structure has elasticity, so that the two oppositely arranged insulating chucks 3 are separated when the static contact 5 rotates and reset to a matched state under the action of the elasticity of the insulating chucks 3, and an action guide surface 302 for interacting with the static contact 5 to separate the two oppositely arranged insulating chucks 3 is arranged on the insulating chuck 3. When the static contact 5 rotates and passes through, the static contact 5 overcomes the elastic action of the physical partition structure to squeeze apart to separate the two insulating chucks 3, and after the static contact 5 rotates and passes through, the static contact resets to a matched state under the self elastic action to directly partition the electric arc between the static contact 5 and the moving contact. In this embodiment, the acting guide surface 302 is a smooth convex curved surface as shown in the figure, and may also be a guide inclined surface or other structures capable of interacting with the stationary contact to separate the two oppositely arranged insulating chucks 3.
Further, the physical partition structure includes a spring main body 4, as shown in fig. 3, the spring main body 4 is provided with a first elastic acting portion 401, and the insulating chuck 3 is fixed on the first elastic acting portion 401.
As shown in fig. 4, the insulating clip 3 is formed by directly molding the insulating material outside the first elastic action portion 401. The elastic sheet main body 4 is preferably a metal elastic sheet, and the service life is long.
The physical partition structure comprises two elastic sheet main bodies 4 which are respectively positioned at two sides of the moving contact 2 and are in linkage fit with the moving contact rotating frame 1, and two insulating chucks 3 which are a group of insulating chucks 3 are respectively arranged on the two elastic sheet main bodies 4.
