Patent ID: 8791777

Claim:
An AC contactor with a mechanical short circuit self-locking function, comprising an AC contactor body which comprises: a shell body; a mechanical short circuit self-locking unit provided in said shell body, wherein said mechanical short circuit self-locking unit comprises a short circuit detecting and triggering device for generating a triggering action when a fault of short circuit occurs, and a self-locking acting device for generating a self-locking action after receiving said triggering action to disable said AC contactor to automatically reset after the fault of short circuit is removed; an electromagnetic moving unit, comprising an electromagnet, a resetting spring, a movable iron core and a controlling switch, wherein said movable iron core is connected to a movable contact plate; said controlling switch is a normally closed switch, wherein said controlling switch is electrically connected to said electromagnet; and said resetting spring is for resetting said movable iron core when said electromagnet loses magnetism, so as to detach said movable contact plate from two fixed contact plates; and several groups of closing and opening structures, wherein each group corresponds with a circuit line and comprises: the two fixed contact plates and the movable contact plate, wherein an input metal conducting plate and an output metal conducting plate are respectively connected to said two fixed contact plates, wherein said movable contact plate corresponds with said two fixed contact plates and is connected to said electromagnetic moving unit; and in a state of being energized, said electromagnetic moving unit drives said movable contact plate to touch said two fixed contact plates, so as to close a circuit line where said movable contact plate and said two fixed contact plates are located; wherein said short circuit detecting and triggering device comprises: a first rotating part sleeved on a first rotating shaft, wherein said first rotating part comprises a first resisting and pushing rod and a short circuit triggering rod, wherein at least a triggering end of said short circuit triggering rod is made of permeable materials and said triggering end thereof is provided at a lower end of said input metal conducting plate or said output metal conducting plate; and a first resetting part connected to said first rotating part for resetting said first rotating part.
