Referring to fig. 1 to 3, a trip protection system for improving rated current of a molded case circuit breaker according to the present utility model includes:
The overcurrent tripping system 100 comprises a moving contact system 1, a contact terminal 2, a thermal element 3 and a bimetallic strip 4, wherein the thermal element 3 and the bimetallic strip 4 are respectively connected between the moving contact system 1 and the contact terminal 2, and a delay adjusting screw 5 positioned beside a traction rod of a circuit breaker is connected to the bimetallic strip 4;
The instantaneous trip system 200 comprises a magnetic yoke 6 connected to the contact terminal 2, an armature bracket 7, an armature 8 rotatably connected to the armature bracket 7 and matched with the magnetic yoke 6, and an instantaneous spring 9 connected between the armature bracket 7 and the armature 8, wherein the armature 8 is positioned beside the traction rod, and the instantaneous spring 9 provides an elastic force for rotating the acting end of the armature 8 away from the traction rod;
Wherein, the bimetallic strip 4 and the thermal element 3 can both receive the current passing through the moving contact system 1 to generate heat, and the bimetallic strip 4 generates deformation through self-heating and/or receiving the heat of the thermal element 3, so that the delay adjusting screw 5 touches a breaker traction rod and cuts off a circuit;
The yoke 6 is able to generate a magnetic field that overcomes the elastic force, so that the active end of the armature 8 touches the traction rod and cuts off the magnetic field of the circuit.
Specifically, a first soft connection 11 is connected between the moving contact system 1 and the thermal element 3, a second soft connection 12 is connected between the moving contact system 1 and the bimetallic strip 4, the first soft connection 11 is larger, the second soft connection 12 is smaller, good conductivity is ensured through welding, and current diversion is adjusted through the large soft connection and the small soft connection, so that the bimetallic strip 4 cannot excessively heat to influence the performance, and the requirement on the resistance value of the thermal element 3 can be reduced.
Specifically, the contact terminal 2 includes a main plane 21 and a connection end 22 extending in a bending manner from the main plane 21, the thermal element 3 and the bimetal 4 are respectively riveted to the connection end 22 through a first rivet 23, the thermal element 3 and the bimetal 4 are tightly attached to each other, and the bimetal 4 is arranged in parallel to the main plane 21 so as to ensure the stability of the overcurrent tripping performance.
Specifically, the yoke 6 is riveted to the main plane 21 through the second rivet 24, so as to strengthen the stability of the yoke 6 to cope with the large current during the instantaneous trip, and strengthen the reliability of the instantaneous trip; the two side ends of the armature bracket 7 are provided with rotating supports 71, and the two side ends of the armature 8 are extended with rotating arms 81 which are in rotating fit with the rotating supports 71.

When assembled, the overcurrent trip system 100 is fixed to the circuit breaker base through the contact terminals 2, and the instantaneous trip system 200 is fixed to the circuit breaker base through the armature bracket 7. When the current is normal, the current passes through the movable contact system 1, and then is split through a first soft coupling 11 and a second soft coupling 12, and flows to the contact terminal 2 from the thermal element 3 and the bimetallic strip 4. When overcurrent is generated, when the current reaches the thermal element 3 and the bimetallic strip 4, the thermal element 3 and the bimetallic strip 4 generate heat at the same time, so that the bimetallic strip 4 generates a large amount of deformation, the overcurrent continuously reaches a certain time, and the delay adjusting screw 5 triggers the traction rod driving mechanism to cut off a circuit. When the rated current which is 8-12 times of the rated current passes, the magnet yoke 6 generates a large magnetic field to enable the armature 8 to rotate rapidly, so that the traction rod is triggered to cut off a circuit.
