Operating mechanism of circuit breaker
An operating mechanism of a circuit breaker includes a moving contact bracket, a moving contact assembly, and a reset torsion spring. The moving contact bracket is provided with a rotating shaft, and the moving contact bracket may be rotated around the rotating shaft; a first end of the reset torsion spring is arranged on a base of the circuit breaker, and a second end of the reset torsion spring is arranged on the moving contact assembly; the moving contact assembly is rotatably arranged on the moving contact bracket, and the moving contact bracket is provided with a limiting portion, so that in a closing process of the circuit breaker, the moving contact assembly is pressed against the limiting portion and rotated synchronously with the moving contact bracket, and the reset torsion spring applies a force rotated towards a disconnection direction of the circuit breaker to the moving contact bracket.
Air gap driving mechanism of a solid-state circuit breaker includes permanent magnet(s) for contact separation
A solid-state circuit breaker comprises a breaker housing and an air gap driving mechanism that is a permanent magnet based. The air gap driving mechanism includes a pair of opposing contacts, a first permanent magnet to generate a static magnetic field and a coil actuator to generate a dynamic magnetic field. The first permanent magnet and the coil actuator are positioned relative to each other such that the dynamic magnetic field generated by the coil actuator can either enhance or cancel the static magnetic field of the first permanent magnet. Hence a combination of the static magnetic field from the first permanent magnet and the dynamic magnetic field from the coil actuator can either drive the pair of opposing contacts open or drive the pair of opposing contacts close.
CROSSBAR ASSEMBLY AND TRIP ASSEMBLY COMPRISING SAME
A crossbar assembly and a trip assembly comprising same are disclosed. The crossbar assembly according to an embodiment of the present disclosure comprises a crossbar and an instant bar. The crossbar and the instant bar can be rotatably coupled so as to be rotatable around the same rotary shaft. Therefore, the space required for rotation can be reduced to be less than when the crossbar and the instant bar are individually rotated. In addition, the crossbar can move in a longitudinal direction when coupled to the instant bar. Therefore, a metallic bar for movement of the crossbar is unnecessary. Therefore, interference between different-phase currents flowing through the trip assembly can be minimized.

Mechanical fuse device
Disclosed herein are efficient mechanical fuse devices that are capable of functioning at high current levels. These devices comprise mechanical features configured such that the fuse devices have a non-triggered state, which allows current to flow through the device, and a triggered state, which does not allow current to flow through the device. In some embodiments, the devices are configured such that a certain pre-determined current level flowing through the device will generate a sufficient electromagnetic field to cause the mechanical elements to transition the fuse device into the triggered state and thus interrupt a connected electrical circuit, device or system. In some embodiments, these devices can also comprise hermetically sealed components. In some embodiments, the fuse devices can comprise pyrotechnic features.
