Electromagnetic operating device
An electromagnet mechanism is coaxially disposed with a vacuum interrupter that is disposed in a circuit breaker, and has a movable core and a fixed core facing each other and an electromagnetic coil that makes the movable core and the fixed core separate or come into contact in response to electromagnetic force. A driving rod which is movably disposed in the axial direction of the electromagnet mechanism is coupled to the movable core, and in which one side is coupled to the circuit breaker and the other side passes through an opening side end plate of the electromagnet mechanism to be extended outward from the opening side end plate of the electromagnet mechanism. An indication unit is disposed on the opening side end plate of the electromagnet mechanism, and indicates a state of the circuit breaker in conjunction with the movement of the driving rod.
1. An electromagnetic operating device comprising:
an electromagnet mechanism which performs opening and closing operation of a circuit breaker and is coaxially disposed with a vacuum interrupter that is disposed in said circuit breaker, and which has a movable core and a fixed core arranged facing with each other and has an electromagnetic coil that makes said movable core and said fixed core separate or come into contact in response to electromagnetic force;
a driving rod which is movably disposed in the axial direction of said electromagnet mechanism and is coupled to said movable core, and in which one side is coupled to said circuit breaker and the other side passes through an opening side end plate of said electromagnet mechanism to be extended outward from said opening side end plate of said electromagnet mechanism along a longitudinal central axis of the driving rod;
an interrupting spring that is held at a predetermined position on a side of said opening side end plate of said electromagnet mechanism; and
an indication unit which is disposed on the same side of said opening side end plate of said electromagnet mechanism as said interrupting spring and which is offset from the longitudinal central axis of the driving rod, and indicates a state of said circuit breaker in conjunction with the movement of said driving rod.
2. The electromagnetic operating device according to claim 1 ,
wherein said indication unit includes:
an ON/OFF indicator which indicates ON/OFF states of said circuit breaker; and
an operation counter which counts the number of times of an ON state of said circuit breaker, and
said interrupting spring is passed through by the other side of said driving rod, and is held at the predetermined position on said opening side end plate of said electromagnet mechanism by an interrupting spring receiver; and
the electromagnetic operating device further comprises:
an auxiliary contact which is disposed on said opening side end plate of said electromagnet mechanism, and opens and closes in conjunction with the movement of said driving rod.
3. The electromagnetic operating device according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a driving plate which is passed through by the other side of said driving rod and is attached to the side of said interrupting spring receiver to move in conjunction with the movement of said driving rod;
a driving rod which is coupled to said driving plate to move in conjunction with the movement of said driving plate;
an auxiliary contact lever which is engaged with said driving rod to perform opening and closing operation of said auxiliary contact;
an ON/OFF indicator driving rod which is coupled to said auxiliary contact lever to operate ON/OFF indication of said ON/OFF indicator; and
an operation counter driver which operates said operation counter in response to ON/OFF operation of said ON/OFF indicator.
4. The electromagnetic operating device according to claim 2 ,
wherein said circuit breaker is configured in three phases; and
said electromagnet mechanism, said driving rod, said interrupting spring, said auxiliary contact, said ON/OFF indicator, and said operation counter are arranged corresponding to each of the phases.
5. The electromagnetic operating device according to claim 3 ,
wherein said circuit breaker is configured in three phases; and
said electromagnet mechanism, said driving rod, said interrupting spring, said auxiliary contact, said ON/OFF indicator, and said operation counter are arranged corresponding to each of the phases.
6. The electromagnetic operating device according to claim 2 ,
wherein said circuit breaker is configured in a single phase; and
said electromagnet mechanism, said driving rod, said interrupting spring, said auxiliary contact, said ON/OFF indicator, and said operation counter are arranged in said circuit breaker.
7. The electromagnetic operating device according to claim 3 ,
wherein said circuit breaker is configured in a single phase; and
said electromagnet mechanism, said driving rod, said interrupting spring, said auxiliary contact, said ON/OFF indicator, and said operation counter are arranged in said circuit breaker.
8. The electromagnetic operating device according to claim 1 ,
wherein said circuit breaker is configured in a vacuum interrupter.
