Of course, in other examples of the present application, the circuit breaker may be another type of circuit breaker, such as a low-voltage circuit breaker, and the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.
The following describes and describes in detail the scheme of the embodiment of the present application, taking the circuit breaker as an example of a residual current operated circuit breaker.
The embodiment of the application provides a circuit breaker with a test loop, as shown in fig. 4, the circuit breaker comprises a circuit breaking action mechanism 1, a test circuit mechanism 2 and a conduction actuating mechanism 3; the circuit breaking action mechanism 1 comprises a first shell 11, and two matching parts 12 are arranged on the first shell 11; the test circuit mechanism 2 is located outside the first housing 11, and has two test terminals 21, the two test terminals 21 being connected to the two fitting portions 12, respectively; the conduction actuating mechanism 3 is accommodated in the first housing 11. Wherein normally the on-actuation mechanism 3 is in contact with at most one of the two mating parts 12 or with at most one of the two test terminals 21; in the test state, the conduction actuating mechanism 3 can move relative to the first shell 11 under the actuation of external force and simultaneously contact the two matching parts 12 or the two test terminals 21 to form a conduction test loop.
In summary, in the circuit breaker with a test circuit provided in the embodiment of the present application, since at least a part of the components except the first housing 11 in the circuit breaking action mechanism 1 are accommodated in the first housing 11, and the test circuit mechanism 2 is arranged outside the first housing 11 and separated from at least a part of the components of the circuit breaking action mechanism 1 by the first housing 11, when assembling, only two test terminals 21 of the test circuit mechanism 2 are cooperatively connected with two mating parts 12 on the first housing 11, and then the connection or disconnection of the test circuit can be controlled by the connection actuating mechanism 3, therefore, the arrangement difficulty of the test circuit is greatly reduced, and the assembly and arrangement of each component in the test circuit mechanism 2 are easier.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 4 to 8, the mating portion 12 may be a socket 121, and the test terminal 21 may be a pin 211, wherein when the socket 121 and the pin 211 are in plug-fit, a free end of the pin 211 protrudes into the interior of the first housing 11 and is located in a movement direction of the conductive actuating mechanism 3.
Referring to fig. 5, two sockets 121 are penetratingly provided on a side wall of the first housing 11, the two sockets 121 being spaced apart, and each socket 121 communicating the inside and the outside of the first housing 11. Referring to fig. 6, two test terminals 21 of the test breaking mechanism are pins 211, and the two pins 211 can be respectively in plug-in fit with two sockets 121 on the first housing 11. As shown in fig. 7, each pin 211 may be connected to a test pin of a test circuit board 23 of the test breaking mechanism through a wire 22, and perform transmission of an electrical signal. Since the pin 211 has a certain length, when the pin 211 is plugged into the socket 121, the free end of the pin 211 away from the wire 22 will extend into the first housing 11 so as to be matched with the conductive actuating mechanism 3. When the on-actuation mechanism 3 moves into contact with both pins 211, the test circuit is on because the on-actuation mechanism 3 and the pins 211 are both conductive, and thus, the two pins 211 are electrically conductive.
In other embodiments of the present application, the mating portion 12 may be a power receiving element, where one end of the power receiving element is located inside the first housing 11 and located in the moving direction of the conductive actuating mechanism 3, and the other end of the power receiving element is exposed from the outside of the first housing 11, and the test terminal 21 may be connected to the other end of the power receiving element.
Illustratively, two through holes may be provided in a side wall of the first housing 11 at intervals, and one power receiving member may be fixed in each through hole, wherein each power receiving member has a portion located inside the first housing 11 and a portion exposed from the outside of the first housing 11. In the embodiment of the present application, the "the other end of the power receiving element is exposed from the outside of the first housing 11" means that in the case where the human eye is abutting the other end of the power receiving element, at least a part of the power receiving element can be seen, including both the case where the other end of the power receiving element passes out to the outside of the first housing 11 through the through hole and the case where the power receiving element is located inside the first housing 11 or within the through hole.
The positions of the electric connection pieces correspond to the positions of the conduction actuating mechanism 3, and when the conduction actuating mechanism 3 moves to be in contact with both the electric connection pieces, the conduction actuating mechanism 3 and the electric connection pieces have conductivity, so that the electric conduction is realized between the two electric connection pieces, and the test loop is conducted.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 8, the on-actuation mechanism 3 includes a button member 31 and a conductive member 32. Wherein the button member 31 is movably mounted to the first housing 11, and a pressing end 3111 of the button member 31 is exposed from the first housing 11 to receive actuation of an external force; the conductive member 32 is located inside the first housing 11 and located in the moving direction of the button member 31, and at least a portion of the conductive member 32 can be driven by the button member 31 to move in a direction approaching the mating portions 12, so as to contact and conduct the two mating portions 12 or the two test terminals 21.
The button member 31 is made of insulating material, and the pressing end 3111 thereof extends from the first housing 11 to receive pressing; the button member 31 is movable in the pressing direction relative to the first housing 11 by pressing by an external force. The conductive member 32 may be connected to or abutted against the button member 31 so as to move along with the movement of the button member 31, wherein the movement form of the conductive member 32 may be any one of movement or rotation.
In some embodiments of the present application, the button member 31 and the first housing 11 may be slidably connected, and as shown in fig. 9 and 13, the first housing 11 has a first sliding portion 14, and the button member 31 has a second sliding portion 313; the first sliding portion 14 is in sliding engagement with the second sliding portion 313, and the sliding direction is parallel to the pressed direction of the button member 31.
Wherein the first sliding portion 14 may include at least one of a chute and a slider; the second sliding portion 313 may include at least one of a chute and a slider.
Alternatively, with continued reference to fig. 9 and 13, the first sliding portion 14 includes a first sliding groove 141 and a first sliding block 142, and the first sliding groove 141 and the first sliding block 142 are spaced apart; the second sliding portion 313 includes a second sliding chute 3131 and a second slider 3132, and the second sliding chute 3131 and the second slider 3132 are disposed at intervals; the first slider 142 is slidable in the second slide groove 3131, and the second slider 3132 is slidable in the first slide groove 141.
Alternatively, the front projections of the first slider 142 and the second slider 3132 on a setting plane perpendicular to the pressed direction of the button have a space.
Taking the matching portion 12 as a socket 121 and taking the test terminal 21 as a pin 211 as an example, when the pin 211 is plugged into the socket 121, the free end of the pin 211 is located in the movement direction of the conductive element 32; when the button member 31 is pressed by an external force, it slides on the first housing 11 and actuates the conductive member 32 to move, so that the conductive member 32 contacts the free ends of the two pins 211 at the same time, thereby conducting the test circuit.
After the test condition is completed, the button member 31 needs to return to the initial position before being pressed, and the conductive member 32 needs to return to a position away from the free end of the at least one pin 211, so as to facilitate normal access and use of the circuit breaker in the circuit.
Thus, in some embodiments of the present application, the on-actuation mechanism 3 may include a return member configured to urge the button member 31 and the conductive member 32 to return to a position prior to actuation by an external force upon release of the external force.
Optionally, the return member is a compression spring. The compression spring may elastically abut against the button member 31, and the button member 31 is connected with the conductive member 32. In the test state, the conductive member 32 is subjected to an external force and contacts the free ends of the two pins 211 at the same time, at this time, the test circuit is conducted, and the compression spring is in an elastically compressed state; when the external force is released, the compression spring returns to deform and drives the button member 31 to return to the position before being pressed, so that the button member 31 drives the conductive member 32 to be away from the free end of the at least one contact pin 211, and the test circuit is disconnected.
In other embodiments of the present application, the conductive element 32 may have elasticity, wherein the conductive element 32 is elastically deformed in the test state.
In the test state, the conductive member 32 is subjected to an external force and contacts the free ends of the two pins 211 at the same time, and at this time, the test circuit is conducted, and the conductive member 32 is in an elastically deformed state. When the external force is released, the conductive member 32 can automatically return to the position before elastic deformation based on the elasticity of the conductive member, so that the conductive member is far away from the free end of the at least one contact pin 211, and the test circuit is disconnected.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 9 and 10, the conductive member 32 may be a torsion spring; the inner wall of the first housing 11 is provided with a mounting post 111, and a torsion spring is sleeved on the mounting post 111. Wherein, the first spring arm 321 of the torsion spring is abutted with one matching part 12 or one test terminal 21; the second spring arm 322 of the torsion spring abuts against the button member 31 and is away from the other mating portion 12 or the other test terminal 21; wherein the other mating portion 12 or the other test terminal 21 is located on the rotational path of the second spring arm 322.
The torsion spring is disposed inside the first housing 11, and as shown in fig. 10, 11 and 12, the torsion spring may be sleeved on the mounting post 111, thereby achieving fixation on the inner wall of the first housing 11. Taking the mating portion 12 as the socket 121, the test terminal 21 as the pin 211, when the pin 211 is plugged into the socket 121, the free end of the pin 211 extends into the first housing 11, the first spring arm 321 of the torsion spring can elastically abut against the free end of one pin 211, and the second spring arm 322 of the torsion spring elastically abuts against the button member 31 and is far away from the free end of the other pin 211. When the button member 31 is pressed by an external force capable of overcoming the elastic force of the torsion spring, the second spring arm 322 of the torsion spring is driven to rotate and gradually approach the free end of the other contact pin 211, in this process, the distance between the first spring arm 321 and the second spring arm 322 gradually decreases, and the elastic force provided by the torsion spring gradually increases until the second spring arm 322 contacts the free end of the other contact pin 211. Since the torsion spring always provides resistance to movement of the button member 31 during pressing, a user can have a good feel when pressing the button member 31.
In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in fig. 13, the button member 31 includes a main body portion 311 and a stopper portion 312, and the pressing end 3111 is located on the main body portion 311; the limiting portion 312 is connected to the main body 311 and is away from the pressing end 3111, and the limiting portion 312 is used for preventing the second spring arm 322 of the torsion spring from sliding from a position abutting against the button member 31.
Illustratively, the retainer 312 is attached to the body portion 311 on a side thereof remote from the pressing end 3111. Since the torsion spring is charged in the test state, the stopper portion 312 can be connected to the main body portion 311 at a position farthest from the pressing end 3111 for safety, and in this case, since the main body portion 311 of the button member 31 is located on the side of the second spring arm 322 of the torsion spring away from the fitting portion 12 as a whole, it is also possible to avoid the main body portion 311 from affecting the fitting of the torsion spring and the contact pin 211.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 13 and 14, the stopper 312 may include a first stopper 3121 and a second stopper 3122, the first stopper 3121 and the second stopper 3122 being disposed at intervals; a limiting gap 3123 is formed between the first stop 3121 and the second stop 3122, and a portion of the second spring arm 322 of the torsion spring is located in the limiting gap 3123 and abuts against the main body 311.
Illustratively, the first and second stoppers 3121 and 3122 are each connected to the side of the body portion 311 remote from the pressing end 3111, such that the limiting gap 3123 formed between the first and second stoppers 3121 and 3122 is open away from the pressing end 3111, and thus the second spring arm 322 located within the limiting gap 3123 may abut against the end of the body portion 311 remote from the pressing end 3111. Further, since the opening direction of the restriction gap 3123 is also opposite to the elastic direction of the second spring arm 322 of the coil spring, the second spring arm 322 is not easily released from the restriction gap 3123.
In some embodiments of the present application, the length of the second spring arm 322 of the coil spring may be greater than the length of the first spring arm 321, thereby ensuring that the second spring arm 322 is able to contact the free end of the other pin 211 after rotation. As shown in fig. 14, the second spring arm 322 may pass through the limiting gap 3123 from one side of the button piece 31 and protrude to the other side of the button piece 31. Accordingly, as shown in fig. 9 and 10, the first housing 11 may have a blocking portion 13; normally, the free end 3221 of the second spring arm 322 of the torsion spring abuts against the blocking portion 13. The blocking part 13 is used for positioning and further limiting the second spring arm 322 of the torsion spring, so that the torsion spring is fixed on the first housing 11 more firmly.
