For example, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, the support frame 10 includes a first end 101 and a second end 102 that are opposite to each other in a first direction X. Both the main circuit breaker 31 and the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 are located at the first end 101, and are spaced apart from each other in the second direction Y. An element located at the first end 101 here refers to that most of a structure of the element is located on the support frame 10 and is close to the first end 101, and an element located at the second end 102 refers to that most of a structure of the element is located on the support frame 10 and is close to the second end 102.
For example, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 5, the main circuit breaker 31 includes a main switch 311 and a first contact arm 312. The main circuit breaker 31 may include an upper chamber 313 and a lower chamber 314 that are communicated with each other in a third direction Z, the main switch 311 is located in the upper chamber 313, and the lower chamber 314 may further be provided with a main control mechanism for controlling opening and closing of the main switch 311. An end of the first contact arm 312 close to the first end 101 is connected with an end of the main switch 311. An end of the first contact arm 312 close to the second end 102 may include a first movable contact that is connected with the direct current cabinet.
For example, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 6, the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 includes an auxiliary switch 321 and a second contact arm 322. The auxiliary circuit breaker 32 may include an upper chamber 323 and a lower chamber 324 that are communicated with each other in the third direction Z, the auxiliary switch 321 is located in the upper chamber 323, and the lower chamber 324 may further be provided with an auxiliary control mechanism for controlling opening and closing of the auxiliary switch 321.

Both the first contact arm 312 and the second contact arm 322 extend in the first direction X and in a direction pointing from the first end 101 to the second end 102.
For example, referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, the other end of the main switch 311 is electrically connected with the other end of the auxiliary switch 321 through a conductive element 45, and the first contact arm 312 and the second contact arm 322 are both farther away from the support surface 20 in a third direction Z than the conductive element 45. Therefore, a space between the first contact arm 312 and the support surface 20 and a space between the second contact arm 322 and the support surface 20 can be reserved for placing other elements. For example, the conductive element 45 can be a copper bar, but it is not limited to this.
For example, referring to FIG. 2, the first direction X and the second direction Y are both parallel to the support surface 20, and the first direction X is perpendicular to the second direction Y, the third direction Z is perpendicular to the first direction X, and the third direction Z is perpendicular to the second direction Y.
FIG. 7A is a connection wiring diagram of a direct current circuit breaker handcart provided by at least one embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 7B is a connection wiring diagram of a direct current circuit breaker handcart.
For example, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 7A, in a mode one, the direct current cabinet includes a first static contact and a second static contact, a connection end corresponding to the first static contact is B1, and a connection end corresponding to the second static contact is B2. A connection end corresponding to the first movable contact of the first contact arm 312 is A1, and a corresponding connection end in a case where the main circuit breaker 31 is connected with the conductive element 45 is A2. A corresponding connection end of the second movable contact of the second contact arm 322 is C1, and a corresponding connection end in a case where the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 is connected with the conductive element 45 is C2. For example, when the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01 enters into the direct current cabinet, the first movable contact and the second movable contact can be respectively connected with the corresponding first static contact and the second static contact in the direct current cabinet, so that the main switch 311 of the main circuit breaker 31 and the auxiliary switch 321 of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 can be closed (with reference to FIG. 5 and FIG. 6). At this time, a path is formed by sequentially connecting the first static contact, the first movable contact, the main switch 311, the conductive element 45, the auxiliary switch 321, the second movable contact, and the second static contact (that is, a path formed by B1-A1-A2-C2-C1-B2 is connected), and the path is connected with a main loop of the direct current cabinet.
For example, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 7B, in a mode two, the direct current cabinet includes a connection end H1 corresponding to a first static contact, a connection end H2 corresponding to a second static contact, a connection end K1 corresponding to a third static contact, and a connection end K2 corresponding to a fourth static contact. The main switch includes a connection end L1 corresponding to a first movable contact and a connection end L2 corresponding to a third movable contact, and the auxiliary switch includes a connection end M1 corresponding to a second movable contact and a connection end M4 corresponding to a fourth movable contact. For example, when the direct current circuit breaker handcart enters into the direct current cabinet, the first movable contact and the second movable contact can be respectively connected with corresponding first static contact and the second static contact in the direct current cabinet, and the third movable contact and the fourth movable contact can be respectively connected with corresponding third static contact and fourth static contact in the direct current cabinet, so that the main switch and the auxiliary switch can be closed. At this time, a path is formed by sequentially connecting the first static contact, the first movable contact, the main switch, the third movable contact, the third static contact, the fourth static contact, the fourth movable contact, the auxiliary switch, the second movable contact, and the second static contact (that is, a path formed by H1-L1-L2-K1-K2-M2-M1-H2 is connected), and the path is connected with the main loop of the direct current cabinet.
For example, referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 7A, the embodiments of the present disclosure adopts a connection method in mode one. Compared with the mode two, this connection method realizes a circuit connection between an end of the main circuit breaker 31 away from the direct current cabinet and an end of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 away from the direct current cabinet by the conductive element 45. The main circuit breaker 31 and the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 each can be connected with only one contact arm, so that a size of the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01 in the first direction X can be shortened, and a plurality of elements can be arranged between the first contact arm 312 and the support surface 20, or between the second contact arm 322 and the support surface 20, so as to improve a space utilization rate of the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01. Moreover, the connection structure of the circuit in this connection method is simple and easy to implement.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, in the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01, the commutation capacitor 41 is electrically connected with the commutation capacitor charger 42, and both of the commutation capacitor 41 and the commutation capacitor charger 42 are located on a side of the main circuit breaker 31 close to the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 in the second direction Y. The commutation capacitor charger 42 is located at the first end 101 and is on a side of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 close to the support surface 20.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, the commutation capacitor 41 is located at the second end 102, and is located on a side of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 close to the support surface 20, and an orthographic projection of the commutation capacitor 41 on the support surface 20 at least partially overlaps with an orthographic projection of the main circuit breaker 31 on the support surface 20. For example, the orthographic projection of the commutation capacitor 41 on the support surface 20 at least partially overlaps with an orthographic projection of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 on the support surface 20. For another example, the orthographic projection of the commutation capacitor 41 on the support surface 20 at least partially overlaps with both of the orthographic projection of the main circuit breaker 31 on the support surface 20 and the orthographic projection of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 on the support surface 20.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, a size of the commutation capacitor 41 and a size of the commutation capacitor charger 42 in the second direction Y are both smaller than a size of the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01 in the second direction Y, and both of the commutation capacitor 41 and the commutation capacitor charger 42 are located on the same side of the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01 in the second direction Y, which is beneficial for the commutation capacitor charger 42 to charge the commutation capacitor 41.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, in a case where the commutation capacitor charger 42 is located at the first end 101, the control and the maintenance can be facilitated. For example, the orthographic projection of the commutation capacitor 41 on the support surface 20 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the main circuit breaker 31 on the support surface 20. For example, the orthographic projection of the commutation capacitor 41 on the support surface 20 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 on the support surface 20. For example, the orthographic projection of the commutation capacitor 41 on the support surface 20 at least partially overlaps with the orthographic projection of the main circuit breaker 31 on the support surface 20 and the orthographic projection of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 on the support surface 20. In this way, a space between the main circuit breaker 31 and the support surface 20 and a space between the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 and the support surface 20 can be effectively utilized, so that a space structure of the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01 is more compact.
For example, referring to FIG. 2, the commutation capacitor 41 is roughly in a shape of a cuboid and includes two parts arranged by stacking. One end of the commutation capacitor 41 can be connected with both of one end of the main circuit breaker 31 and one end of the main arrester 51, and the other end of the commutation capacitor 41 can be connected with the commutation switch assembly 44 and the commutation switch arrester 52 (with reference to FIG. 2). In the embodiments of the present disclosure, because the commutation capacitor 41 needs to be connected with a plurality of elements, two ends of the commutation capacitor 41 opposite in the first direction X are respectively provided with four connection ends, which is beneficial for the commutation capacitor 41 to electrically connected with other elements, so that a plurality of lines connected with the commutation capacitor 41 can maintain relative independence and reduce mutual crosstalk. Of course, a number of connection ends of the commutation capacitor 41 provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure is only exemplary, and in different application scenarios, the number can be determined according to different needs, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. For example, the commutation capacitor 41 can further only be provided with several connection ends on one side, and on the other side, the commutation capacitor 41 can be electrically connected with other elements by directly leading out connection lines (for example, an electric line), and therefore the space can be further saved, and the convenience of electrical connection can be satisfied, but it is not limited to this.
For example, referring to FIG. 2, because the commutation capacitor 41 has a high voltage and a large capacitance, it may cause life danger upon being touched by a person. For this, the embodiments of the present disclosure is further provided with two discharge connection terminals 411 on a side of the commutation capacitor 41 close to the second end 102, the discharge connection terminal 411 extends in a direction toward a side close to the support surface 20 and is configured to connected with a discharge element (for example, a discharge resistor) in the direct current cabinet, so as to facilitate a discharge of the commutation capacitor 41 to improve reliability performance.
For example, referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the commutation inductor 43 is located on a side of the commutation capacitor charger 42 away from the support surface 20 in the third direction Z, and is located between the main circuit breaker 31 and the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 in the second direction Y. The commutation inductor 43 is roughly cylindrical, and is surrounded by the conductive element 45 on a side of the conductive element 45 away from the second end 102 when the conductive element 45 is connected with the main circuit breaker 31 and the auxiliary circuit breaker 32, so that the commutation inductor 43 is arranged stably, is not easy to shake or fall, and is easy to realize electrical connection with the commutation capacitor 41.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01 further includes an isolation transformer 55. The isolation transformer 55 is electrically connected with the commutation switch assembly 44, and is located on a side of the commutation capacitor 41 away from the support surface 20, and is adjacent to and spaced apart from the commutation switch assembly 44. For example, a volume of the isolation transformer 55 is smaller and is smaller than that of the commutation switch assembly 44. With this arrangement, a space between the commutation capacitor 41 and the commutation switch assembly 44 can be effectively utilized, and an electrical connection between the isolation transformer 55 and the commutation switch assembly 44 is facilitated.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, the isolation transformer 55 can be connected in parallel at both ends of the commutation switch assembly 44, and can further be connected with an external power source, to supply power to the commutation switch assembly 44. For example, a power supply voltage of the commutation switch assembly 44 can be 220V, and the arrangement of the isolation transformer 55 may use a principle of electromagnetic induction to prevent excessive voltage on a power supply side from entering the commutation switch assembly 44 and causing damage to the elements. For example, the isolation transformer 55 can prevent the voltage of 10 KV and above from the power supply side from entering the commutation switch assembly 44, but it is not limited to this.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, the commutation switch assembly 44 is electrically connected with the commutation inductor 43 and the commutation capacitor 41, respectively, and the commutation switch assembly 44 includes a first commutation switch assembly 441 and a second commutation switch assembly 442. The first commutation switch assembly 441 and the second commutation switch assembly 442 are electrically connected with each other, and are both located on a side of the commutation capacitor 41 away from the support surface 20.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, each of the first commutation switch assembly 441 and the second commutation switch assembly 442 is of an integral structure. In the third direction Z, the first commutation switch assembly 441 and the second commutation switch assembly 442 are located between the support surface 20 and the first contact arm 312, and are between the support surface 20 and the second contact arm 322.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, the commutation capacitor 41, the commutation switch assembly 44, and the commutation inductor 43 can be connected in series in sequence, and this connection branch can be connected in parallel with the main circuit breaker 31, and is configured to generate an oscillation loop and form a current zero-crossing point upon breaking off the line fault. For example, the first commutation switch assembly 441 may include a commutation switch IGCT (Integrated Gate Commutated Thyristor) assembly, the second commutation switch assembly 442 may include a commutation switch thyristor assembly, and the first commutation switch assembly 441 is connected in series with the second commutation switch assembly 442, but it is not limited to this.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, with this arrangement, it is beneficial to realizing an electrical connection among the first commutation switch assembly 441, the second commutation switch assembly 442, the commutation inductor 43, and the commutation capacitor 41. By arranging the first commutation switch assembly 441 and the second commutation switch assembly 442 of an integrated structure, it is beneficial to realizing a miniaturized design and reducing an occupied space. In addition, the first commutation switch assembly 441 and the second commutation switch assembly 442 can be placed by further effectively use the space between the support surface 20 and the first contact arm 312 and the space between the support surface 20 and the second contact arm 322, thereby making a layout of the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01 more reasonable.
For example, referring to FIG. 2, both the first commutation switch assembly 441 and the second commutation switch assembly 442 are in a shape of cuboid or substantially cuboid, but it is not limited to this. In the third direction Z, an orthographic projection of the second commutation switch assembly 442 on the support surface 20 is in a shape of “I”. For example, the orthographic projection of the second commutation switch assembly 442 on the support surface 20 extends in a direction from the first end 101 to the second end 102. In this way, compared with making the orthographic projection of the second commutation switch assembly 442 on the support surface 20 be in other shapes, such as an “L” shape, an overall volume of the second commutation switch assembly 442 is reduced, which is conducive to the miniaturized design. In this case, a sum of a size of the first commutation switch assembly 441 and a size of the second commutation switch assembly 442 in the first direction X is approximately equal to a size of the commutation capacitor 41 in the first direction X. The size of the first commutation switch assembly 441 in the second direction Y is greater than the size of the second commutation switch assembly 442 in the second direction Y, and the size of the first commutation switch assembly 441 in the second direction Y is approximately equal to that of the commutation capacitor 41, which is beneficial to achieving a good overall arrangement of the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, in the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01, the repulsive assembly 33 includes a repulsive capacitor 331 and a repulsive capacitor charger 332, the repulsive capacitor charger 332 is electrically connected with the repulsive capacitor 331, and is configured to charge the repulsive capacitor 331. For example, the repulsive assembly 33 may further include a repulsive switch thyristor assembly 333 configured to control a rapid opening of the main circuit breaker 31 together with the circuit breaker controller (with reference to related description of the following embodiments) when a line fault occurs. For example, a volume of the repulsive capacitor 331 is larger than that of the repulsive capacitor charger 332, but it is not limited to this. For example, the repulsive switch thyristor assembly 333 can be located in the main circuit breaker 31, but it is not limited to this.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, both the repulsive capacitor 331 and the repulsive capacitor charger 332 are located at the first end 101, and are located on the side of the main circuit breaker 31 close to the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 in the second direction Y. The repulsive capacitor 331 is located on a side of the repulsive capacitor charger 332 away from the support surface 20, and is spaced apart from the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 in the first direction X, so as to facilitate a charging of the repulsive capacitor 331 by the repulsive capacitor charger 332. Meanwhile, the repulsive capacitor charger 332 is located on the side of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 close to the support surface 20 in the third direction Z, with this arrangement, it is beneficial to a control and maintenance for the repulsive capacitor charger 332.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, the direct current circuit breaker handcart 01 further includes a circuit breaker controller (not shown), which is configured to transmit a control signal to the main circuit breaker 31 and the auxiliary circuit breaker 32. The circuit breaker controller is located at the first end 101, and is located on a side of the main circuit breaker 31 close to the support surface 20 in the third direction Z, and is adjacent to and spaced apart from the repulsive capacitor charger 332 in the second direction Y. For example, the circuit breaker controller is located on a side of the repulsive capacitor charger 332 close to the second end 102 in the first direction, but it is not limited to this.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, a volume of the circuit breaker controller may be smaller than that of the repulsive capacitor charger 332 adjacent thereto, but it is not limited to this. By arranging the circuit breaker controller at the first end 101, it is convenient to realize a control of the circuit breaker controller to the main circuit breaker 31 and the auxiliary circuit breaker 32, and to facilitate a control and maintenance for the circuit breaker controller.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the circuit breaker controller may include a main circuit breaker controller and an auxiliary circuit breaker controller. For example, the main circuit breaker controller can control the opening and closing of the main circuit breaker 31 together with the repulsive switch thyristor assembly 333. For example, the auxiliary circuit breaker controller may control the opening and closing of the auxiliary circuit breaker 32. For example, the main circuit breaker controller may be a main circuit breaker permanent magnet controller, and the auxiliary circuit breaker controller may be an auxiliary circuit breaker permanent magnet controller.
For example, referring to FIG. 1, a repulsive mechanism may further be provided in the main circuit breaker 31, and the repulsive mechanism may be electrically connected with the repulsive assembly 33 in the above embodiments, and together control the opening of the main circuit breaker 31. For example, the repulsive mechanism may include a repulsive coil and a repulsive disk, but it is not limited to this. For example, when a line fault occurs, a control and protection system of the direct current cabinet will send an opening command, and the repulsive switch thyristor assembly 333 will control the repulsive capacitor 331 to discharge to the repulsive coil located in the main circuit breaker 31, so that the repulsive coil controls the repulsive disk to drive the main circuit breaker 31 to open, for example, to drive the main switch 311 (with reference to FIG. 5) in the main circuit breaker 31 to break off. At the same time, a permanent magnet capacitor inside the main circuit breaker controller discharges to a permanent magnet coil, so as to drive the main circuit breaker 31 to open. Therefore, the main switch 311 (with reference to FIG. 5) in the main circuit breaker 31 can be broken off under a joint action of a repulsive coil controller and the main circuit breaker controller. For example, a permanent magnet capacitor inside the auxiliary circuit breaker controller discharges to a permanent magnet coil, so as to drive the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 to open. Therefore, the auxiliary switch 321 (with reference to FIG. 6) in the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 can be broken off under an action of the auxiliary circuit breaker controller. For example, when the control and protection system of the direct current cabinet sends a closing command, the main switch 311 (with reference to FIG. 5) in the main circuit breaker controller can be closed under an action of the main circuit breaker controller, and the auxiliary switch 321 in the auxiliary circuit breaker 32 (with reference to FIG. 6) can be closed under the action of the auxiliary circuit breaker controller, but is not limited to this.

The energy absorbing element 50 is located between the support surface 20 and the main circuit breaker 31 in the third direction Z.
For example, referring to FIG. 2, the commutation capacitor 41 is connected in series with the first commutation switch element 441 and the second commutation switch element 442 in sequence. For example, in this circuit connection relationship, one end of the main arrester 51 can be connected with an end of the commutation capacitor 41 away from the commutation switch assembly 44, and the other end of the main arrester 51 is connected with an end of the second commutation switch assembly 442 away from the commutation capacitor 41. The commutation switch arrester 52 is connected in parallel to both ends of the commutation switch assembly 44, for example, one end of the commutation switch arrester 52 is connected with an end of the commutation switch assembly 44 close to the commutation capacitor 41, and the other end of the commutation switch arrester 52 is connected with the end of the second commutation switch assembly 442 away from the commutation capacitor 41.
With this arrangement, it is beneficial to realizing an electrical connection between the main arrester 51 and the commutation switch arrester 52 and various elements.

In a case where the electrodes reach a certain distance, the commutation switch assembly 44 starts to operate, the commutation capacitor 41 is connected with the current carrying element 30 through the commutation inductor 43 to form a current carrying branch as an oscillation loop, and vibration current with an opposite direction to that of current in the current carrying branch is generated, so that the arc in the main switch (with reference to FIG. 5) in the main circuit breaker 31 is extinguished because of a forced zero-crossing of the current, which makes that the current is transferred to a commutation branch formed by the commutation element 40. Subsequently, the commutation capacitor 41 is reversely charged, and in a case where a voltage of the commutation capacitor 41 exceeds an operating voltage of the main arrester (with reference to FIG. 2) in the energy absorbing element, the current is gradually transferred to a branch where the main arrester is located until the current in the main arrester crosses zero to complete a breaking off of the line fault.
