Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to an on-load tap-changing switch, in particular to a permanent magnet drive on-load tap-changing switch.

BACKGROUND ART

A transformer is switched from one tap to another tap to change the number of turns of an active coil of the transformer at the high-voltage side to achieve the purpose of voltage regulation. An on-load tap-changing switch changes load current by virtue of a changing switch; the highspeed mechanism is a power source of the changing switch. At present, the highspeed mechanism is mainly a spring energy release device; however, a spring has poor reliability; complete paralysis will be caused once a main spring is damaged; and with the increase of use time, the elasticity of the spring will get worse and worse or broken, and that will result in serious results.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

For the above problem, the present invention provides a permanent magnet drive on-load tap-changing switch which obviates the need for a highspeed mechanism, uses the contactors to act directly, operates at high speed and reliably, has an extended service life.

In order to solve the above problem, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a permanent magnet drive on-load tap-changing switch comprising a changing switch circuit. The changing switch circuit comprises an odd-numbered tap-changing circuit and an even-numbered tap-changing circuit that are structurally identical. The tap-changing circuits comprise working contactors and dual-contact synchronous transition contactors consisting of primary contactors and secondary contactors. The working contactors are connected to the primary contactors through trigger transmitters and transition resistors; the primary contactor of a tap-changing circuit is connected to the secondary contactor of another tap-changing circuit through a high-voltage thyristor; the trigger transmitter is configured to provide a trigger current to the high-voltage thyristor connected with the secondary contactor of the same tap-changing circuit. The working contactors and the dual-contact synchronous transition contactors directly face moving contactors. The moving contactors are connected in parallel to each other. Moving contactor permanent magnets are bijectively connected onto the moving contactors. The moving contactor permanent magnets directly face on the other extremity thereof a moving contactor driving mechanism. The moving contactor driving mechanism comprises a moving permanent magnet which moves to change the force acting on the moving contactor permanent magnets to allow the moving contactors to get contact with or depart from the working contactors and the dual-contact synchronous transition contactors. By changing the acting force of the moving permanent magnet on the permanent magnets via the moving permanent magnet, the moving contactors therefore get contact with or depart from the working contactors and the dual-contact synchronous transition contactors. When the moving permanent magnet gets close to the like pole of a moving contactor permanent magnet, the moving permanent magnet is repulsive to the moving contactor permanent magnet, and the moving contactors are in contact with the working contacts/double-contact synchronous transition contactors; when the moving permanent magnet is close to the unlike pole of the permanent magnet, the rotating permanent magnet attracts the permanent magnet, and the moving contactors depart from the working contacts/double-contact synchronous transition contactors.

The moving permanent magnet is composed of a plurality of permanent magnets which are arranged side by side at intervals and the same ends of every two adjacent permanent magnets have unlike poles.

In order to facilitate the design and manufacturing of the moving permanent magnet and make the force acting on the moving contactor permanent magnets easily adjusted, and the moving contactors are connected to the like pole ends of the moving contactor permanent magnets, and the pole ends of the moving contactor permanent magnets, facing the moving contactor driving mechanism, are defined as like pole ends.

The present invention is structurally simple and convenient to use, obviates the need for a highspeed mechanism, implements changing by means of direct actions of the contactors, operates at high speed and reliably, has a low failure rate, an extended service life, and value for widespread use.
