When thedovetail groove 11 and thedovetail rib 21 are matched, the outer side of the sidewall, which is provided with thedovetail groove 11, of thecircuit board enclosure 2 is in surface connection with the inner side of the sidewall of thebase 1. Therefore, thecircuit board enclosure 2 can be internally connected to the inner side of the sidewall of thebase 1 more stably. - In addition, as another specific embodiment (not shown in the drawings), a firstdovetail groove and a second dovetail groove are symmetrically provided on the upper edge inside the sidewall of the
base 1 of the circuit breaker and the lower edge inside the sidewall of the cover plate of the circuit breaker, respectively. When the cover plate covers thebase 1, groove openings of the first dovetail groove and the second dovetail groove are connected to each other. In practical operation, the shape of thedovetail rib 21 is the same as the overall shape of the space in the groove when the first dovetail groove and the second dovetail groove are connected, and at the same time are matched with the first dovetail groove and the second dovetail groove, respectively. By means of the arrangement of the first dovetail groove and the second dovetail groove, the stability of thecircuit board enclosure 2 in thebase 1 can be improved, and thedovetail rib 21 on thecircuit board enclosure 2 can also play guiding and pre-positioning roles when the cover plate is mounted. The number of thedovetail ribs 21 and thedovetail grooves 11 will not be specifically limited here. -
Figs. 4 to 6 illustrate a wiring assembly structure on the base of the circuit breaker of the present invention. Afirst counterbore 31 is formed in the front surface of the end to be wired of thebase 1, a ring-shapedsecond counterbore 32 is formed in the bottom surface of the end to be wired of thebase 1, wherein ahollow lug boss 3a is formed between thefirst counterbore 31 and thesecond counterbore 32, and thefirst counterbore 31 is located on thelug boss 3a. When the circuit breaker is used for front-panel wiring, a terminal screw is placed in thefirst counterbore 31 for performing electric insulation. When the circuit breaker is used for back-panel wiring, thelug boss 3a falls off by means of an external force, and a terminal screw is placed in thesecond counterbore 32 to perform electric insulation. By means of the arrangement of thefirst counterbore 31, thesecond counterbore 32 and thelug boss 3a, the circuit breaker of the present invention can meet the wiring requirements in front of and on the back of the board at the same time. In addition, the circuit breaker of the present invention also has the advantages of reducing the cost and facilitating the assembly and is also advantageous to reduce the stock preparation. - Specifically, the
first counterbore 31 has a structure in which an axial cross section is circular. The ring-shapedsecond counterbore 32 is provided on the bottom surface of thebase 1 in a manner of facing thefirst counterbore 31 and surrounds the outside of the circumferential wall of thefirst counterbore 31. At the same time, thelug boss 3a for accommodating and insulating a terminal screw is formed between thefirst counterbore 31 and thesecond counterbore 32. Thesecond counterbore 32 has a ring-shaped cross section in the horizontal section and a "" cross section in the axial direction, and the height of thelug boss 3a is lower than the in-bore height of thesecond counterbore 32, so that thelug boss 3a can be prevented from falling off due to improper operation during installation or debugging. - As shown in
Figs. 4 to 6 , on the front surface of the end to be wired of thebase 1, a ring-shapedfourth counterbore 34 is further provided between thefirst counterbore 31 and thesecond counterbore 32 for facilitating the shedding of theboss 3a. By means of the arrangement of thefourth counterbore 34, the other organizational structure surface can be prevented from being broken due to the falling of thefirst counterbore 31 while the structural strength of a connectingpart 3b is ensured, and the appearance of burrs and ridges at the connectingpart 3b when thefirst counterbore 31 falls off can be avoided. Thebase 1 further comprises a circularthird counterbore 33 provided in the front surface of the end to be wired, thefirst counterbore 31 is provided in thethird counterbore 33,and a step surface between thethird counterbore 33 and thefirst counterbore 31 is used for accommodating a terminal nut. Thefourth counterbore 34 is provided in the third counterbore and is positioned in the root of the step surface between thethird counterbore 34 and thefirst counterbore 31. By means of the arrangement of thethird counterbore 33, the connecting part 33b is formed between thethird counterbore 33 and thesecond counterbore 32 and located between thelug boss 3a and thebase 1. Therefore, thelug boss 3a will fall off along the connectingpart 3b after being knocked by the external force. In addition, through the arrangement of the connectingpart 3b, the minimum external force required for thelug boss 3a to fall off can be controlled conveniently. - It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, in order to facilitate the processing and molding, the above-mentioned counterbores all circular counterbores arranged coaxially. However, in the specific implementation, according to the actual working needs, other structures and setting manners can also be selected for the counterbores, for example, the
third counterbore 33 adopts a regular hexagonal shape whose axial cross section is matched with the terminal nut, which will not be specifically limited herein. - Specifically, as shown in
Fig. 6 , a cross section of thefirst counterbore 31 perpendicular to the axial direction is circular, a cross section of thesecond counterbore 32 perpendicular to the axial direction is ring-shaped, and thefirst counterbore 31 and thesecond counterbore 32 are coaxial. A cross section of thethird counterbore 33 perpendicular to the axial direction is circular, and thethird counterbore 33 and thefirst counterbore 31 are coaxial. A cross section of thefourth counterbore 34 perpendicular to the axial direction is ring-shaped, and thefourth counterbore 34 and thethird counterbore 33 are coaxial. In the present embodiment, the inner diameter R2 of the outer wall of thesecond counterbore 32 is greater than the inner diameter r3 of thethird counterbore 33, and the outer diameter r2 of the inner wall of thesecond counterbore 32 is smaller than the inner diameter r3 of thethird counterbore 33, and therefore it is possible to ensure that the connectingpart 3b having a reasonable structure is formed between thesecond counterbore 32 and thethird counterbore 33. In addition, the inner diameter R4 of the outer wall of thefourth counterbore 34 is equal to the inner diameter r1 of thefirst counterbore 31, and the outer diameter r4 of the inner wall of thefourth counterbore 34 is greater than the inner diameter r1 of the first counterbore, and therefore thefourth counterbore 34 can take a better protection effect when thefirst counterbore 31 falls off. - Optionally, the
lug boss 3b in the present embodiment has a wall thickness of 0.75 mm to 1.00 mm. Therefore, the insulation performance of thelug boss 3a can be ensured while the weight of the circuit breaker is lightened. An axial cross section of thelug boss 3a is in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid whose diameter gradually decreases from the front surface to the back surface of the end to be wired of thebase 1, such that thelug boss 3a can be knocked off conveniently. An axial cross section of thefirst counterbore 31 is in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid whose diameter gradually decreases from the front surface to the back surface of the end to be wired of thebase 1. - The above content is a further detailed description of the present invention in combination with specific preferred embodiments, and it cannot be confirmed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions.
