[0024] According to the above technical solution, the outer side of the separation thrust ring is slidably fitted with the outer side of the mechanism mounting ring, the outer diameter of the separation thrust ring is smaller than the inner diameter of the anti-loosening locking block, and one end of the two adjacent ejector guide rods is clamped with a baffle.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: the present invention has a scientific and reasonable structure and is safe and convenient to use.
[0026] 1. A thermally sensitive mechanical separation mechanism is set up, which can easily fix the plug end cap, plug male and male conductive terminals to both ends of the cable through the cable sealing end sleeve, and make the male conductive terminals electrically connected to the cable conductor. At the same time, the high-pressure air chamber and the pneumatic drive bladder are fixed by the cooperation of the intermediate connecting body, mechanism mounting ring, guide bushing and axial retaining ring. The locking ring can be inserted to facilitate the docking of two cables. The modular structure is realized, which facilitates disassembly and replacement and improves convenience.
[0027] The locking and return spring pushes the transmission slider and the driven slide to slide, and in conjunction with the hinge support and the linkage swing plate, it moves the main locking tongue up and down, which facilitates the limiting of the locking ring and improves the stability of the connection.
[0028] Through the cooperation of the heat conduction rod, heat distribution conduit, high-pressure air chamber, heat-sensitive pressure relief pipe, heat fusion valve core, and pneumatic drive bladder, when a section of cable catches fire, heat is evenly transferred to the heat fusion valve core, causing it to melt. This facilitates the filling of the pneumatic drive bladder with air pressure, causing it to expand and push the piston push ring and driven slide plate to move. Through power transmission, the main locking tongue is pushed upward, releasing the limit on the locking ring. This allows the compression and separation main spring to reset, causing the thrust bearing ring to extend and push out the locking ring. As a result, the burning cable is isolated, achieving reliable early physical isolation of the fire and preventing the fire from spreading along the outside of the cable.
[0029] 2. An anti-loosening locking mechanism is set up. With the cooperation of the auxiliary locking rod, the main locking tongue is raised and lowered, pushing the locking block mounting plate and the anti-loosening locking block to rise and fall together, which facilitates the insertion of the plug end cover. Then, the auxiliary lock return spring is extended and retracted to help push the main locking tongue down, which improves the limit of the main locking tongue on the locking ring. At the same time, the auxiliary locking rod pulls the locking block mounting plate and the anti-loosening locking block down, and cooperates with the auxiliary locking ring to limit the plug end cover, forming a double mechanical lock and increasing the stability of the connection.
[0030] In the event of a fire, the expansion of the pneumatically driven bladder can unlock the entire system at once. Then, the pre-compressed separation auxiliary spring and separation thrust ring work together to generate a push-out force, which assists in the separation of the main spring. Together, they push the plug end cap and plug male connector to separate from the mechanism mounting ring, ensuring that the cables at both ends are quickly and completely released, preventing them from sticking together and stopping the fire from spreading.
[0031] In summary, by combining the thermally sensitive mechanical separation mechanism and the anti-loosening locking mechanism, a highly reliable cable fire safety system is constructed, integrating stable connection, intelligent sensing, and active separation. During normal operation, the dual mechanical locks provide vibration and pulling resistance. In fire emergencies, it can react quickly and decisively to physically isolate the cable without the need for external energy or complex control circuits. Even under extreme fire conditions such as power outages and signal interruptions, it can still separate the cable to prevent the spread of fire. At the same time, the modular design allows for the disassembly and replacement of components, improving convenience. Attached Figure Description

[0058] An anti-loosening locking mechanism 6 is provided on the outer side of the intermediate connecting body 507;
[0059] The anti-loosening locking mechanism 6 includes an auxiliary mechanism ring 601, an outer protective cover 602, a moving part groove 603, an auxiliary locking rod 604, an auxiliary lock return spring 605, a lock block mounting plate 606, an anti-loosening lock block 607, an auxiliary locking ring 608, an ejector guide rod 609, a separation auxiliary spring 610, and a separation thrust ring 611.
[0060] An auxiliary mechanism ring 601 is symmetrically sleeved on the outside of the intermediate connecting body 507. An outer protective cover 602 is snapped onto the outside of the auxiliary mechanism ring 601. Both ends of the outer protective cover 602 are provided with movable part slots 603 at equal intervals.
[0061] An auxiliary locking rod 604 is equidistantly connected to the top of the locking mechanism box 513.

The top of the auxiliary locking ring 608 is symmetrically provided with inclined surfaces.
[0062] Two ejector guide rods 609 are symmetrically connected between the inner walls of the two mechanism partitions 512 and the two adjacent locking mechanism boxes 513. A separation auxiliary spring 610 is sleeved on the outer side of the ejector guide rod 609. A separation thrust ring 611 is snapped into one end of the ejector guide rod 609. In order to facilitate the ejection of the plug end cover 502, the outer side of the separation thrust ring 611 slides against the outer side of the mechanism mounting ring 506. The outer diameter of the separation thrust ring 611 is smaller than the inner diameter of the anti-loosening locking block 607. A baffle is snapped into one end of the two adjacent ejector guide rods 609.
[0063] The working principle and usage process of this invention are as follows: First, the high-pressure air chamber 522 and the air pressure driving bladder 525 are filled between the mechanism mounting ring 506 and the guide bushing 510. Then, through the cooperation of the axial retaining ring 509, the mechanism mounting ring 506 and the guide bushing 510 are fixed on both sides of the intermediate connector 507, thus completing the installation of the docking assembly. The two ends of the cable are fixed to the plug end cover 502 through the cooperation of the cable sealing end sleeve 501, which facilitates the sealing of the cable and provides convenience for subsequent connections.
[0064] Next, the male connector 503 is inserted into the guide bushing 510, forcing one end of the female conductive terminal 508 into the terminal receiving cavity 504, while one end of the male conductive terminal 505 is inserted into the female conductive terminal 508, ensuring the effect of power transmission. The heat conduction rod 526 is also inserted into the heat distribution pipe 527 at the same time to facilitate the transfer of heat.
[0065] Next, when the male connector 503 is inserted into the guide bushing 510, the locking ring 511 inside the plug end cover 502 is inserted between the mounting ring 506 and the guide bushing 510. The main locking tongue 520 is pushed up by the inclined surface at one end of the locking ring 511. At the same time, through the cooperation of the hinge support 519 and the linkage swing plate 521, the transmission slider 515, the driven slide plate 517 and the piston push ring 518 are pulled to slide, so that the locking telescopic linkage 514 is extended, which makes it easier to release the limit and let one end of the locking ring 511 pass through the bottom end of the main locking tongue 520.
[0066] When one end of the locking ring 511 is in contact with one end of the axial retaining ring 509, the main locking tongue 520 loses support. Then, through the extension and retraction characteristics of the locking return spring 516, the transmission slider 515 and the driven slide plate 517 are pushed to slide back to their original positions, causing the locking telescopic linkage 514 to retract. Then, through the cooperation of the hinge support 519 and the linkage swing plate 521, the main locking tongue 520 is pulled down, forcing the bottom end of the main locking tongue 520 to be embedded in the groove on the outside of the locking ring 511. This limits the locking ring 511 and the plug-in end cover 502, ensuring stable and convenient docking.
[0067] Simultaneously, during the lifting and lowering of the main bolt 520, the auxiliary locking rod 604, the locking block mounting plate 606, and the anti-loosening locking block 607 are pushed upward together, forcing the auxiliary lock return spring 605 to contract and release the obstruction, making it convenient for the plug-in end cover 502 to slide with the auxiliary locking ring 608. When the main bolt 520 descends and resets, the auxiliary locking rod 604 lowers and resets the locking block mounting plate 606 and the anti-loosening locking block 607, so that the anti-loosening locking block 607 and the auxiliary locking ring 608 cooperate to block and limit the plug-in end cover 502, further improving the stability of the connection. At the same time, the elasticity of the auxiliary lock return spring 605 is used to increase the pushing force on the main bolt 520 to descend, making it easier for the main bolt 520 to insert into the slot on the outside of the locking ring 511.
[0068] When a section of cable catches fire, the flames burn and the temperature rises rapidly. Using the heat conduction rod 526 and the heat-spreading conduit 527, the increased heat is guided to the hot melt valve core 524 inside the heat-sensitive pressure relief pipe 523. When the hot melt valve core 524 reaches its melting point, it melts, releasing the seal on the heat-sensitive pressure relief pipe 523. This allows the compressed gas inside the high-pressure air chamber 522 to quickly fill the pneumatic drive bladder 525 through the heat-sensitive pressure relief pipe 523, causing the pneumatic drive bladder 525 to expand. This, in turn, pushes the piston push ring 518 and the driven slide plate 517 to move. Through the cooperation of the linkage swing plate 521, it pushes the main locking tongue 520 upward, releasing the limit on the locking ring 511.
[0069] At the same time, the expansion of the pneumatic drive bladder 525 causes the main locking tongue 520 to rise, pushing the auxiliary locking rod 604, the locking block mounting plate 606 and the anti-loosening locking block 607 to rise, thus releasing the restriction on the auxiliary locking ring 608.
[0070] Finally, when the limit is released, the compressed separation main spring 528 and separation auxiliary spring 610 extend and reset, pushing the thrust bearing ring 529 and separation thrust ring 611 to move quickly, popping the plug male connector 503 out of the guide bushing 510, thus realizing the automatic separation of the two cable sections and preventing the fire from spreading.
[0071] Finally, it should be noted that the above descriptions are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
