本公开为一种可以通过电流熔断,也可以通过机械力断开电路的新型熔断器,作为电路保护和故障控制器件,能够适用于发电、输电、配电、用电等设备中,也适用于电动车辆、船舶、航空等领域,。
传统熔断器是利用流过的电流产生的热量熔断的,存在的主要问题是电流发热是熔断器动作的能量来源,在遇到较小的过电流时,需要大量的时间进行热量积累,熔断时间较长,无法可靠保护后端器件。另外,在例如出现导体线圈的部分匝间短路、电源内阻较大或输出电流能力较小,或者用电设备浸水可能造成短路等情况时,过电流小于一定数值,并不大,但是仍需要切断电路,此时传统熔断器无法及时动作,无法可靠地保护用电器。如果采用开关切断类似的小电流,则需要增加开关器件。由于开关的最大分断电流能力比熔断器弱,因此需要区分过电流的值,判断开关是否适合进行分断动作,这样可能导致分断情况变得不安全。一般来说,开关有体积大,成本高等缺点。尤其对于直流过电流故障,由于直流没有过零点,一般的空气开关不能采用过零点熄弧的原理,分断能力大幅下降,而熔断器分断直流过电流能力强,体积小,成本低,安全可靠。
熔断器分断能力高的原因主要是充填的灭弧介质比开关的气体或真空介质的熄灭电弧能力强很多。
目前,存在熔断器在内部设置弹簧或通过重力拉长熔体断口的结构,在熔体熔断后,熔体受力并运动,从而拉长断口,以提升分断能力。但是具有如下问题:1.无法进行外部控制,在电流熔断后,机械力才发挥作用;2.无法保证多个串联断口的出现以及拉长的可靠性,而多串联断口对于分断较高的电压和较大过电流值至关重要;因而只能运用于额定电流较小、额定电压较低、或者分断能力较低、或者体积和运动空间很大的熔断器上。

实施例
针对上述技术方案,现举出实施例并结合附图进行具体说明。本公开的熔断器主要包括壳体、熔体、驱动装置、打断装置;其中。
如图1所示,壳体100为中空密封结构,在壳体100中填充有灭弧介质101。灭弧介质101为粒状固体、凝胶状、液体等状态的灭弧介质。通常采用密实充填的石英砂。熔体102设置在壳体100中的灭弧介质101中,熔体102的两端分别与穿过壳体壁107的导电端子103连接。导电端子103与壳体100接触面之间为密封接触,防止灭弧介质101外溢。
驱动装置105位于壳体100外部,为打断装置提供驱动力。驱动装置105可以是可产生压力气体的气体发生装置、产生压力流体的流体发生装置、电磁驱动装置105、电动机、气缸、液压缸、气动马达、液力马达、或传动装置。通过驱动装置105为打断装置提供直线位移驱动力、旋转位移驱动力或直线位移与旋转位移结合的驱动力。当驱动装置105为气体发生装置时,驱动装置105及位于壳体100外部的打断装置部分则需密封设置在壳体100外部,以保证产生的高压气体不会溢散。在图1中,驱动装置105为气体发生装置, 因此,在壳体100外部的驱动装置105及打断装置的外周设置有密封的盖子106。
打断装置配置为使位于灭弧介质101中的熔体102通过机械方式断开。打断装置可以通过直线位移方式使熔体102断开,或通过旋转位移方式使熔体102断开。
图1所示结构为以直线位移方式断开熔体102的结构。打断装置包括设置在壳体100内的熔体102上下两面的施力构件200和导引构件201,其均为杆状结构。在图1中,施力构件200和导引构件201的位于熔体102两侧部位处一端固定连接在一起,使施力构件200、导引构件201及夹设在其间的熔体102部分形成组合体。施力构件200位于熔体102上面,其向上穿过并突出壳体壁107,其与壳体壁107接触面处设置有防止灭弧介质101泄露的阻挡结构。在实施例中,施力构件200与导引构件201与壳体壁107间的阻挡结构为密封件,密封件为密封圈202、203。阻挡结构还可以通过过盈配合实现,或通过其他的机械结构方式实现。
在导引构件201下端对应的壳壁上开设有供施力构件200通过的通孔108,导引构件201下端穿设在通孔108中,在导引构件201下端与壳体壁107接触面处设置有防止灭弧介质101泄露的阻挡结构。当驱动装置105接收外部激励信号动作,驱动施力构件200、导引构件201以及夹持在其中的熔体102部分一起位移,从而使熔体102断开。由于设置的是通孔108,因此导引构件201位于通孔108中的一端其位移的最终位置可以是通孔108内,也可以是壳体100外部。
当壳体壁107上开设的不是连通壳体100外部的通孔108时,必须在导引构件201端部与其所在的壳体壁107中的孔的底部间留有足够的供导引构件201位移的间隙。当导引构件201在施力构件200作用下位移时,导引构件201不会伸出壳体100外部。
图1中,驱动装置105采用气体发生装置,气体发生装置接收来自外部的激励信号,一般为电信号,点火产生大量高压气体,推动施力构件200和导引构件201一起位移。
在位于施力构件200和导引构件201两侧的熔体102的长度方向上,分别开设有薄弱处204,薄弱处204的设置目的在于降低熔体102的断开处的断开强度,使其在受到冲击时更容易断开。在图1中,薄弱处204为间隔开设在熔体102上的数个透孔。薄弱处204还可以为在熔体102的宽度方向上贯通熔体102的断开凹槽,可以设置在熔体102的一面或两面的对应位置处;断开凹槽形状可以是V型、U型、波浪形等单一结构或几种结构组合而成的结构。也可以是在熔体102的宽度方向上间隔开设的一排或几排透孔,降低薄弱处204的强度。可以是使应力集中的结构,比如变截面结构,使断开处的熔体102截面逐渐变窄,在受到外力冲击时,可提到单位面积的冲击力度。也可以采用强度较低的导电材料替代薄弱处204原有的熔体102材料制作薄弱处204。
熔体102的固定方式可以是将两端都压紧固定,然后在中间位置施力,使得熔体102 被拉断;也可以是一端固定,然后使熔体102在灭弧介质101中形成为U或Z形的造型,然后对另外的自由端进行拉伸,使得造型和施力点之间的薄弱处204被拉断;还可以是壳体100向内凸入的柱状结构,将熔体102穿过,且在靠近柱体的部分设计薄弱处204,这样在对柱体的一侧或者两侧施力时,薄弱处204容易被拉断。
在熔体102上设置有熔断薄弱处205,可以在熔体102上间隔设置多个熔断薄弱处205。在图1中,熔断薄弱处205为狭径。熔断薄弱处205还可以是变截面结构,或在熔断薄弱处205设置低温熔断导电材料,或在熔体102表面设置低温熔断材料,低温熔断导电材料为在较低温度下可熔融,其可加速熔体102熔断;或在熔体102上设置冶金效应点、或采用低导电率的导电材料。在熔体102上设置熔断薄弱处205的位置不影响打断装置断开熔体102即可。
熔体102在壳体100腔室中可以设置为一字平面状,也可以设置为梯形折弯形状。当将壳体100内的熔体102设置为梯形结构时,薄弱处204设置在与位于施力构件200和导引构件201间的熔体102部分连接的一条梯形边上。当熔体102在壳体100腔室内设置为梯形结构时,由于灭弧介质101的压制,在施力构件200和/或导引构件201带动其夹持或与之固定的熔体102部分一起向下位移时,更容易拉断熔体102。
参照图2,在熔体207与壳体100间还设置有支撑固定装置206,支撑固定装置206位于打断装置的一侧或两侧;可以设置在熔体207一侧或两侧。支撑固定装置206的结构可以是支撑凸台结构、支撑悬臂结构,支撑杆状结构等配置为对熔体207进行支撑固定的结构。支撑固定设置一端固定设置在壳体100上,另一端与熔体207接触并固定在熔体207。通过支撑固定装置206,缩短打断装置与支撑固定装置206之间的熔体207长度,有助于熔体207快速断开。图2中,熔体207的断开处设置有凹槽结构,施力构件208的位于灭弧介质中的一端嵌入并卡设在熔体207的凹槽中。在导引构件209所在一侧的壳体100内壁上设置有凸台,在该凸台及壳体100壁上开设有通孔108,在导引构件209的外周设置有限位凸棱210,当导引构件209一端穿设在通孔108中时,限位凸棱210恰好卡设在凸台上以对导引构件209进行位置限定,同时防止灭弧介质泄露。导引构件209另一端对熔体207进行支撑。当驱动装置(未图示)驱动施力构件208和导引构件209以直线方式位移时,导引构件209上的限位凸棱210在驱动力作用下断开,解除对导引构件209的限位。
图3示出以直线位移方式断开熔体300的另一种结构。在壳体100中并联设置有两根熔体300,熔体300的两端分别与导电端子103连接。在两熔体300一侧间隔设置有三根施力构件301、302、306,其中施力构件301、306的一端与熔体300接触,施力构件302一端与熔体300间留有间隙,该间隙的大小满足其中间填充的灭弧介质不会阻止施力构件302对熔体300及导引构件304的施力。在两熔体300的另一侧设置有与施力构件301和 施力构件302分别相对应的导引构件303和导引构件304。
其中,灭弧介质采用灭弧固体颗粒、灭弧液体或者带有或不带有颗粒的灭弧胶体,当施力构件与导引构件共同夹持熔体300时(如施力构件302与导引构件304共同夹持熔体300),施力构件与熔体300之间、导引构件与熔体300之间无间隙或者具有灭弧介质不能通过的微小间隙;施力构件带动熔体300运动时,施力构件与导引构件在壳体100内部部分的体积之和总体不变。
需要说明的是,施力构件与导引构件在壳体100内部部分的体积之和总体不明显变化是指在壳体100内部的部分的体积之和可以是完全不变,不随着二者的运动而有变化,也可以是有微小增加或者微小减小。这里的微小增加是指施力构件与导引构件可以是小角度锥面构件,不明显增加运动时与灭弧介质之间的阻力,不影响打断运动的可靠实施,还可以弥补灭弧介质在电弧灼烧下的损耗,压实灭弧介质提升灭弧能力。而体积减小则有助于减小阻力,但是体积减小的比例不能影响灭弧介质的灭弧能力。总之,微小增加体积以不阻挡打断装置运动,微小减小以不影响灭弧介质充填度为准。
详细的,导引构件303和导引构件304位于熔体300一端并分别开设有供熔体300穿过的孔槽,其中一根熔体300与导引构件的端部接触,另一根熔体300穿过导引构件上的孔槽。在壳体100壳壁上对应导引构件303、304的一端分别开设有通孔108。导引构件303的另一端穿设在通孔108中。在导引构件304对应的通孔108外侧设置有限位销305,限位销305呈凸型结构,限位销305的底部开设在壳体100外侧壁上,限位销305的销杆部位于通孔108中。在导引构件304与限位销305对应的端部处开设有具有一定深度的凹槽,限位销305的位于通孔108中的销杆部插设在导引构件304端部的凹槽中,并与凹槽底部保留有位移间隙,导引构件304的端部与限位销305的底部间保留有位移间隙。通过设置限位销305来限定施力构件和导引构件的位移距离。
图3中,三个施力构件301、302、306共用一个驱动装置105,该驱动装置105为气体发生装置。当气体发生装置接收来自外部的激励信号时动作,从而释放大量高压气体,三个施力构件301、302、306均在高压气体的驱动下位移。其中,施力构件301和施力构件302推动熔体300和导引构件303、304位移并断开熔体300,施力构件306则断开位于其位移方向上的熔体300。在熔体300上形成多个机械式断开断口。
在上述灭弧过程中,施力构件301、302、306与导引构件303、304的运动能够保证灭弧介质是密实填充状态,不会导致灭弧介质松散,而且基于上述设计,不管是熔断还是机械力断开,都可以使得断开处与灭弧介质充分接触,确保灭弧以及分断电流的效果。
在断开后的两侧熔体300之间具有电弧通道,至少一侧的熔体300和电弧通道的至少一部分路径处于所述灭弧介质中。即,可以是断开后的两侧熔体300以及二者之间的电弧 通道全部处于灭弧介质中,也可以是其中一侧的熔体300处于灭弧介质内,另一侧熔体300处于灭弧介质外,这样原有的电弧通道的一部分路径处于灭弧介质内部,以保障灭弧效果。
可选地,断开后的熔体两侧分别为阴极和阳极,阴极或者阳极能够在施力构件301、302、306的带动下,移动到施力构件与壳体100之间的绝缘狭缝307中。如此,绝缘狭缝307也能够提升灭弧效果。
可选地,施力构件与熔体300之间、导引构件与熔体300之间设计成无间隙或者具有灭弧介质不能通过的微小间隙,可以使得施力构件、导引构件与熔体300形成阻隔效果较好的墙,避免在电弧压力下出现气流导通,也避免间隙过大导致灭弧介质在电弧压力下流动而影响阻隔效果或者影响灭弧介质的密实度。并且由于不会增大与灭弧介质的阻力,加之不会因为存在过大间隙而存留灭弧介质,不会带动灭弧介质移动,所以这样的设计容易实现高速、较长距离运动,使得熔体300能够被高速分离,并且分离的距离拉长可以显著增加灭弧、分断能力。
可选地,可以在熔体300上设置薄弱处308,并对熔体300的材质韧性指标进行试验,对施力构件301、302、306的速度和力度进行试验。当驱动装置105工作时,施力构件301、302、306带动熔体300在灭弧介质中运动,使得熔体300被逐渐拉伸并在薄弱处308形成断口,断口能够被灭弧介质包裹。同样能够保障良好的灭弧效果。
图4为以直线位移方式断开熔体的另一种结构。在壳体400中间隔并联设置有两根熔体401、402,熔体的两端分别与穿设在壳体400两侧的导电端子403连接。打断装置包括穿设在壳体400中的施力构件404、405,及位于壳体400外部的施力构件406。施力构件404一端穿过壳体400壳壁且位于灭弧介质中。在施力构件404的位于灭弧介质中的一端开设有供熔体401和熔体402穿设的凹槽,熔体401和熔体402穿设在施力构件404的位于灭弧介质中的端部。在施力构件405的位于施力构件404的一侧以及施力构件404和施力构件405间设置有固定熔体401、402的支撑固定装置407,熔体401、402分别穿设并固定在支撑固定装置407上。
请结合图4,当驱动装置(未图示)工作时,施力构件404带动熔体401、402在灭弧介质中运动,使得熔体401、402被逐渐拉伸并在降低熔体机械强度的薄弱处408或熔体的材料拉应力集中位置形成成断口,断开后的熔体两侧分别为阴极和阳极,阴极和阳极之间为电弧路径,阴极和/或阳极仍处于灭弧介质中,部分或者全部的电弧路径处于灭弧介质中。
对于这种结构,在熔体401、402断开后,两侧的熔体可以始终被灭弧介质包裹,也可以是其中一部分被包裹。对于单侧熔体而言,也是可以在运动全程都被灭弧介质包裹,或者是只在断开后的一定时间内被包裹。总之,只要断口处能够被正常灭弧即可。
其中,为了保障熔体被逐渐拉伸并在薄弱处408形成断口,可以对施力构件404的速 度和力度进行试验,以及对熔体401、402的材料韧性进行试验,以获得实现熔体401、402被逐渐拉伸并在薄弱处408形成断口的效果,从而保障断口初始一定时间/距离能够被灭弧介质包裹,提高灭弧分断的效果。
详细的,以熔体401与施力构件404相近的位置M为参考点,薄弱处408与壳体400之间和/或者参考点之间具有预设间距。
更为详细的,预设间距使得断口与壳体400和/或施力构件404具有距离,熔体401断开后的两端中的至少一端能够被所述灭弧介质包裹,并且断口周围无大于预设范围的空气空间。
薄弱处408与壳体400之间的预设间距为第一预设间距,此时薄弱处408与参考点无间距。由于断口距离两端壳体400均有一定距离,断开后的熔体在断开后的一定时间内仍然处于灭弧介质内,并且通过为不动端预留填充灭弧介质的空间,可以使得灭弧介质包覆断开的位置,利于灭弧。即使熔体401熔化/汽化,也有空间可以扩散,断口处的电弧的压力也可以被灭弧介质缓冲,防止损坏其他结构。当然,也可以设计成断口与施力构件404有距离(即薄弱处408与参考点之间有预设间距,称为第二预设间距),与壳体400无间距。这时,被拉断后的熔体401还是可以有一部分被施力构件404继续带动,以运动到施力构件404与壳体400的狭缝409中或者运动到施力构件404的另外一侧,在运动过程中,始终有灭弧介质包裹,以达到良好的灭弧-减压-隔离高温的效果。
或者是,断口距离壳体400有间距,距离施力构件也有间距,即上述的第一预设间距、第二预设间距均存在。并且断开后的两端至少有一端可以被灭弧介质包裹,比较优选的是,断开后的两端,除了各自与壳体400、与施力构件404有间距,还都被灭弧介质包裹,以达到较优的性能。需要说明的是,第一预设间距、第二预设间距只是区别描述,并不代表二者的长度一定相同或者一定不同。
简而言之,只要薄弱处408的位置使得断开之后的两段的断面与壳体400之间有距离或与施力构件404有距离,则施力构件就能够在该薄弱处408拉断熔体,而不是剪断熔体。
可以理解的是,熔体402与施力构件404之间也可以如此设置。
其中,预设范围的空气空间是指数十微米级的空气空间,通过将空气空间限定在数十微米以下,可以防止过大尺寸的空气空间的自由空气中产生电弧。其中,灭弧介质可以是固态颗粒,颗粒间形成的空气空间的典型值是10微米以下,是受限的微小空间,可以避免产生电弧。
在向上提拉或者向下下压施力构件404的过程中,熔体401在灭弧介质内逐渐移动并被拉伸,由于有薄弱处408,该处的拉伸量最大,并最终被拉断,断开后的断口位置直接被灭弧介质包裹,使得断面以及断面周围都能有灭弧介质裹覆,并且不会有自由空气产生 电弧,确保熔体401断开后能够充分灭弧。
举例而言,壳体400的内部凸设有支撑凸台407,熔体401断开后的两部分分别为第一段401a和第二段401b(在图4视角中,薄弱处408左侧为第一段401a,右侧至支撑凸台407之间的部分为第二段401b),第二预设间距使得第二段401b能够随施力构件404继续运动,部分的第二段401b能够最终被挤到施力构件404与支撑凸台407之间的狭缝409中。如此可以提高绝缘电阻值,进一步提高灭弧效果。需要说明的是,支撑凸台407属于支撑结构中的一种示例,支撑结构不一定呈凸台状,只要能够与施力构件404形成狭缝409并允许断开后一部分熔体进入灭弧狭缝409即可。该凸台也可以是壳体400的一部分,即施力构件可以与壳体400之间存在狭缝409,以便于第二段401b的一部分进入。
举例而言,熔体401断开后的两部分分别为第一段401a和第二段401b,第二预设间距使得第二段401b能够随施力构件404继续运动,且使得第二段401b能够运动到和第一段401a分别处于施力构件404的两侧。第一段401a、第二段401b的划分可以参考上文。由于第二段401b整体移动到了施力构件404的右侧,能够进一步提高绝缘效果,分断电弧的效果更佳。
可选地,施力构件404呈板状或者柱状,其宽度不小于熔体401、402的宽度(当第一段401a和第二段401b的宽度不一致时,则至少不小于其中一段的宽度),施力构件404上下贯穿壳体400,其长度使其足以在上下移动过程中,处于壳体400内部的部分始终是横跨于壳体400的相对的两侧壁且与侧壁构成过盈配合,第一段401a和第二段401b分别处于施力构件404的两侧后,施力构件404形成第一段401a与第二段401b之间的绝缘墙。施力构件404作为绝缘墙形成进一步的隔绝作用,不仅绝缘电流,同时阻隔两侧电弧可能出现的高温和压力。
可选地,上述两种间距选择中的施力构件404与壳体400接触的部分或者施力构件404本身,采用经电弧灼烧会产生灭弧气体的产气材料制成。由于会产生灭弧气体,而施力构件404为固体,难以被压缩,因此产生的灭弧气体向施力构件404之外的空间流动,并挤压电弧,使其向灭弧介质方向运动,从而提高了灭弧能力。
施力构件405位于灭弧介质中的一端且能够接触熔体401的呈U型或弧形结构的部分。熔体401的弧形结构部穿设在施力构件405端部上。当施力构件405的位于壳体400外部一端受到驱动装置的驱动拉动施力构件405时,带动熔体弧形结构处位移,拉断熔体。在熔体弧形结构处一侧或两侧上分别设置薄弱处408,或在熔体折弯部位处设置薄弱处408。弧形结构更有利于施力构件405施力拉断熔体。在折弯处设置薄弱处408,更有助于快速拉断熔体401。
可以理解为,熔体401与施力构件405配合时,薄弱处408的设置方式也可以参考上 述与施力构件404的配合,使得熔体401可以被逐渐拉伸并最终在薄弱处408形成断口,保障断口位置能够被灭弧介质包裹,以达到良好的灭弧效果。
熔体402一部分呈弧形状伸出壳体400外部形成弧形结构。施力构件406为销轴结构,穿设在熔体402弧形结构处。薄弱处408设置在位于灭弧介质中的熔体402上。当施力构件406受到驱动装置驱动拉断熔体时,熔体402上形成的断口位于灭弧介质中。熔体与壳体400壳壁间通过密封件密封防止灭弧介质泄露。位于壳体400外部的施力构件406的形状也可以类似施力构件405的结构,但是如此结构可能会导致壳体400外施力构件406占据的空间相对较大。
图4结构的驱动装置可以是电动机、气缸、液压缸、气动马达、液力马达、或传动装置。其通过与驱动装置之间的连接实现驱动。传动装置例如为凸轮传动装置。在位于壳体400外部的施力构件端部设置成丁字状结构,凸轮对施力构件端部的平板处向外施加驱动力,则可驱动施力构件拉动熔体从而断开熔体。
上述图1至图4均为打断装置以直线位移方式打断熔体从而形成断口的几种结构的示意图。由上述内容可知,打断装置可以包含一个施力构件,也可以包含多个施力构件,根据需要,可以设置导引构件也可以不设置;当设置导引构件时,导引构件可以是一个也可以是多个,无需与施力构件一一对应,还可以是一对多,多对一的对应关系。不论熔体全部或部分位于灭弧介质中,熔体的机械式断口均必须在灭弧介质中形成。在施力构件、导引构件与壳体壳壁之间均设置有防止灭弧介质泄露的阻挡结构,阻挡结构可以是密封件结构,也可以是过盈配合结构,此外,阻挡结构也可以设置在在壳体外部或壳体内壁处,阻挡灭弧介质泄露。比如在导引构件所在一侧的壳体外部设置类似盖子结构,盖子以与壳体紧密接触的方式设置在壳体外部。盖子与导引构件端部间保留有足够的空隙供导引构件位移,保证导引构件在壳体壳壁间和盖子的空隙间位移即可。由于熔体打断过程所需时间非常短,最短为数毫秒级打断时间,在如此短的打断时间里,导引构件位移速度远大于灭弧介质的泄露速度,因此,灭弧介质从壳体中的泄露不会阻碍导引构件的位移,又由于有盖子作用,灭弧介质不会泄露至盖子外部,也就不会对电路中其他部件造成损害。
接下来,对打断装置以旋转位移方式断开熔体601的结构进行具体说明。参照图5,在壳体600的灭弧介质中设置有熔体601,熔体601的两端分别与穿设在壳体600上的导电端子602连接,导电端子602可与外部电路连接。在熔体601断开位置处两侧的壳体600壳壁的相对位置处设有通孔。打断装置包括旋转施力构件603,其为杆状结构;旋转施力构件603穿过灭弧介质,其两端分别穿设在通孔中。旋转施力构件603一端伸出壳体600外。在旋转施力构件603与壳体600壳壁接触面处设置有防止灭弧介质泄露的阻挡结构604。可以理解的是,壳体600的一部分可以设计为可旋转的结构,该部分直接作为打断装置的 旋转施力构件603使用并配置有安装轴以实现相对于壳体600其他部分转动。该部分转动时,可以以安装轴为轴转动,也可以设计成能够绕相对于安装轴有一定角度的轴线旋转,以对熔体601进行打断。此外,其他使用旋转打断方式的实施方案也可以参考使用该以部分壳体600作为旋转施力构件603的方案。
其中,阻挡结构604为密封结构,采用密封件密封,比如密封圈。熔体601穿设在旋转施力构件603的外周并通过旋转施力构件603固定。熔体601被夹持、固定在旋转施力构件603上。驱动装置(未图示)位于壳体600外部,与旋转施力构件603连接,为旋转施力构件603提供旋转驱动力。驱动装置可以是电机、齿轮传动装置等可为旋转施力构件603提供旋转驱动力,且必须是可通过接收外部激励电信号启动的驱动装置。机械薄弱处605设置在旋转施力构件603的外侧。在机械薄弱处605一侧设置有熔断薄弱处606。对于机械薄弱处605,不论是哪个图示中的旋转打断方式,其断开后的两侧熔体601在灭弧介质内的运动以及被灭弧介质包裹的时间等,可以参考上述关于直线打断的方案的介绍,并且同样可以设计相应的绝缘狭缝。总之,只要能够保障有良好的灭弧效果即可。
当熔体601为长条片状结构时,图5中的旋转施力构件603可以从熔体601的正面穿过夹持熔体601通过旋转位移断开熔体601,也可以从熔体601侧面夹持熔体601通过旋转位移断开熔体601。
参照图6和图7,多组打断装置分别以直线位移或旋转位移两种方式结合断开熔体的结构示意图。在壳体700中填充有灭弧介质,在灭弧介质中平行间隔设置有两根并联的熔体701、702,两熔体701、702的两端分别与穿设在壳体700上的导电端子703连接,导电端子703可与外部电路连接。在本实例中,熔体701、702为长条片状结构。在熔体701、702正面上方的壳体700上间隔开设有两通孔108,在两通孔108分别相对的另一侧壳体700壳壁上分别设置有凸台704和导柱705,在凸台704中开设有未穿透壳壁的孔。在两熔体701、702的与两个通孔108相对应的位置处分别设置有一组施力构件706和导引构件707。其中,施力构件706一端穿过壳壁上通孔108并伸出至壳体700外,另一端位于熔体701上面。导引构件707包括导引构件分件708和导引构件分件709,通过两分件套接组成。其中,导引构件分件708位于两熔体701、702间,其一端间隔设置有三个连接柱710,连接柱710穿过熔体701与熔体701固定连接,另一端位于熔体702上面。导引构件分件709与导引构件分件708连接的一端也间隔设置有三个连接柱710,导引构件分件709上的三个连接柱穿过熔体702与导引构件分件708位于熔体702上面的一端固定连接,从而形成完整的导引构件707,将熔体701和702固定在导引构件707上。导引构件707的另一端穿设在凸台704中的孔中,在导引构件707与孔底部间保留足够供导引构件707位移的间隙。在施力构件706和导引构件707与壳体700接触面处设置有防止灭弧介质泄露的阻挡 装置718。其中,采用密封件进行密封。将导引构件707处的密封件设置在限位凸台上,该限位凸台卡设在壳壁的凸台704上。施力构件706和导引构件707形成一个打断装置。
另外一组打断装置也包括施力构件711和导引构件712。施力构件711一端通过通孔108伸出壳体700外部,另一端位于熔体701上面。导引构件712包括导引构件分件713和导引构件分件714。导引构件分件713位于熔体701和熔体702间,其一端与熔体701固定连接,另一端位于熔体702上面。在导引构件分件714的上端间隔设置有数个连接柱,连接柱穿过熔体702与导引构件分件713固定连接,从而形成完整的导引构件712,将熔体701和熔体702固定在导引构件712上。在导引构件712的另一端的与导柱705相对应的位置处开设有卡槽715;导引构件712上的卡槽715卡设在导柱705外周,在导柱705端面与卡槽715底部之间保留有供导引构件712位移的空隙,在导引构件712的设置有卡槽715的端面与设置有导柱705的壳体700壳壁间保留足够供导柱705沿导柱705位移的距离。在施力构件711与壳壁接触面处设置有防止灭弧介质泄露的阻挡装置718,其中,阻挡装置为密封件。也可以通过过盈配合实现密封,或通过设置在壳体700内或壳体700外的机械阻挡结构来实现密封。
在两组打断装置间设置有支撑固定两熔体701、702的支撑臂716和支撑凸台717。熔体701穿设在支撑臂716上,被固定支撑,熔体702位于支撑凸台717上面,被固定支撑。
上述两打断装置在驱动装置(未图示)的驱动下,施力构件驱动导引构件并带动熔体位移,从而断开熔体,形成机械式断开断口。
在两个以直线位移方式断开熔体的打断装置的一侧还设置有以旋转位移方式断开熔体的打断装置。该打断装置包括旋转轴800,旋转轴800一端伸出壳体700一侧壳壁,在位于壳体700外的旋转轴800端部设置有旋转柄801。位于壳体700中的旋转轴800一端从两熔体701、702之间穿过并以可转动的方式设置在壳体700内壁上。将旋转轴800位于两熔体701、702间的部分设置为与两熔体701、702的一面贴合的块状结构,在两熔体701、702的另一面分别设置有压块,该压块与位于两熔体701、702间的块状结构部分固定连接,从而形成旋转轴800上的夹持组件802,将两熔体夹持、固定在旋转轴800上。
驱动装置作用在旋转柄801上或直接作用在旋转轴800上驱动旋转轴800转动断开两熔体701、702。由于旋转轴800从两熔体701、702的侧面的壳壁中穿设,其被夹持在熔体的两面上,因此,其断开效果比图5中的断开效果更好,形成的断口更大。当驱动装置驱动旋转柄801带动旋转轴800转动时,驱动装置可以是直线驱动装置,此时,旋转柄801为倾斜设置,驱动装置从高点向低点位移压迫旋转柄801带动旋转轴800转动。当驱动装置作用与旋转轴800时,此时驱动装置需提供直接给旋转轴800提供旋转力,此时,驱动装置可以是齿轮、皮带、链条等传动装置等。
在本公开中,当以直线位移方式断开熔体时,在打断装置断开熔体形成断口后,随着打断装置的持续位移,有可能带着断开的部分熔体脱离灭弧介质,进入设置在壳壁上的通孔中,或进入设置在壳壁上的位移空间中。在断口处产生的电弧则可能会有一小部分随着打断装置进入通孔或位移空间中,在这种情况下,断口产生的电弧大部分通过灭弧介质灭弧,小部分通过活塞和壳体形成的狭缝灭弧。
上述实施例着重描写了在壳体中填充有灭弧介质的情况下以机械方式打断熔体的结构示例。其中,针对熔体熔断的描写较少,不论是以何种机械式打断熔体结构,熔体的本质特征是熔断,当故障电流足够使熔体熔断时,则必然形成熔断断口。因此,在此没有大篇幅对其进行说明。比如,当故障电流较小或故障电流为零时,故障电流不足以使熔体熔断,此时,灭弧介质中的熔体仅存在机械式断开断口。当故障电流较大,熔断断口可在机械式断口产生前或之后产生;在故障电路非常大时,首先熔体熔断并产生熔断断口。熔体熔断断口产生后,需要依据分断电压的大小、熔断器体积大小等决定是否会还需形成机械式断开断口,通过在外部的控制装置中设定发出激励信号的条件即可实现。上述所有结构中,与熔体接触的施力构件及导引构件端均为绝缘材料。
在本公开的所有结构中,在打断装置的动作前后,灭弧介质必须位于壳体中,不能泄露,否则,泄露的灭弧介质会影响使用熔断器的设备仪器、单元、车辆等的性能。
上述不论以直线位移方式断开熔体还是以旋转位移方式断开熔体的结构,驱动装置均可以接收外部激励信号动作。驱动装置可以是电动机、气缸、液压缸、气动马达、液力马达、传动装置或其他可以根据外部激励信号动作的其他驱动装置。
本公开熔断器工作原理:
以直线位移方式断开熔体和以旋转位移方式断开熔体的工作原理相同,因此以图1的以直线位移方式的打断装置断开熔体为例进行说明。
当故障电流较小或故障电流为零但根据设定条件需断开熔体102时,此时故障电流不足以熔断熔体102;驱动装置105接收来自外部的激励信号,驱动由施力构件200、导引构件201及其间的部分熔体102组成的组合体一起向下位移,将熔体102从薄弱处204拉断并在灭弧介质101中形成断口,在灭弧介质101中灭弧,熔体102通过机械式打断方式断开,从而实现电路保护;
当故障电流较大时,大电流足以熔断熔体102,此时,在熔体102的熔断薄弱处205产生高温,熔体102熔断;熔体102熔断的同时,驱动装置105接收来自外部的激励信号,驱动由施力构件200、导引构件201及其间的熔体102部分组成的组合体一起向下位移,熔体102从薄弱处204被拉断,确保了熔体102的断开。由于较大故障电流存在一定电流范围,在这个电流范围内熔体102熔断所需的时间不同,因此,机械式断开断口可能在熔 断断口形成前形成,也可能在之后形成。
当故障电流很大时,熔体102首先熔断形成熔断断口,可以仅通过熔体102熔断断开电路;外部可以不发送激励信号至驱动装置105,打断装置不动作。
当没有故障电流产生时,也可以根据设定的条件向驱动装置105发出激励信号,促使驱动装置105驱动打断装置断开熔体102,断开电路。
综上所述,本公开的熔断器可以根据需要而单独通过机械式单独断开,也可以通过熔体单独熔断,也可以根据需要而通过机械断开和熔体熔断结合断开。提高了熔断器的电流分断范围和分断能力;同时,由于产生的电弧在灭弧介质中进行灭弧,且通过机械式拉断熔体形成断口,再随着打断装置的位移拉长了电弧距离,更易灭弧,提高了灭弧能力。另外,在施力构件和导引构件位移时,在施力构件和导引构件与壳体壁之间设置有阻挡结构,避免了灭弧介质泄露,提高了熔断器工作安全性。
以上所述仅为本公开的优选实施例而已,并不用于限制本公开,对于本领域的技术人员来说,本公开可以有各种更改和变化。凡在本公开的精神和原则之内,所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均应包含在本公开的保护范围之内。
本公开的熔断器,可通过单独熔断、机械断开或两者结合断开熔体实现电路保护,拓宽分断电流范围,使熔断器全电流范围内分断,提高了熔断器分断能力及分断可靠性;将熔体分断口设置在密闭填充有灭弧介质的型腔内,提高了灭弧效果,同时防止了电弧外泄,提高了熔断器工作安全性;同时通过机械式断开熔体,缩短了分断时间;且本公开的熔断器结构简单,体积小。
