[0002] The fuse tube is a core component of a fuse, and the performance of the fuse tube determines the quality of the fuse. The fuse refers to a kind of electrical appliance that breaks the circuit by melting the fuse body with the heat generated by itself when the current exceeds the specified value. The fuse is widely applied to high and low voltage distribution systems and control systems and electrical equipment, and is used as a protector of short circuit and overcurrent, and is one of the most commonly used protection devices.
[0003] The current drop-out fuse fuse tube is a composite material with a sulfidized fiber tube (the sulfidized fiber tube is a kind of paper product, so it has high water absorption) inside and an epoxy winding tube outside. The product has excellent arc extinguishing performance and good mechanical strength. However, due to the water absorption of the internal sulfidized fiber, the overall water absorption of the product is too large, and the product is easily affected by the environment. When exposed to air for a long time, due to factors such as temperature and humidity, the insulation strength of the fuse tube will decrease, and the internal layering will occur. The production cycle of the internal sulfidized fiber tube is long, generally one month, the process is complex, and the scrap rate is high, which seriously restricts the production of the product.
[0004] The application greatly reduces the water absorption of the product by changing the arc extinguishing material inside the fuse tube, and also has good insulation, arc extinguishing and mechanical strength. The problems of layering and low insulation strength of the fuse tube exposed to air for a long time are fundamentally solved. SUMMARY

[0073] The key point of the application is a unique formula. The internal material of the domestic fuse tube is vulcanized fiber.

The arc extinguishing tube manufacturing and drying process in the production process of the fuse tube are improved. The fuse tube (high molecular tube) in the application is used to replace the original vulcanized fiber tube. The product not only has insulation, arc extinguishing, good mechanical strength, but most importantly, the material made of the new formula has very low water absorption. This is a major breakthrough in material science. The fuse tube made by the application has excellent insulation performance and arc extinguishing performance, and very low water absorption, which meets the quality requirements of the international market, improves the quality of domestic fuses, and fills the gap in domestic technology.
