[0002] Drop-out fuses are short-circuit switches widely used in power distribution line branches and distribution transformers, and are also widely used in outdoor circuit protection.

[0003] In traditional drop-out fuses, the fuse tip extends out of the fuse tube and is fixed to the end of the fuse tube by winding. This method is inconvenient when installing the fuse, and when the fuse is short-circuited and blows, it cannot be guaranteed that the fuse will detach from the fuse tube, posing a certain safety hazard.

[0004] In view of the above reasons, the present invention proposes a drop-out fuse to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a drop-out fuse that can hold the fuse with a clamping plate and quickly detach from the fuse tube when the fuse blows.

[0006] This invention provides a drop-out fuse, comprising: an insulator, a fuse tube, a hinge frame, and a clamping plate. Both ends of the fuse tube are fixedly mounted with hinge plates extending to one side. The hinge frame is hinged to the hinge plates via connecting bolts. A set of connecting ribs is integrally connected to the end of the hinge frame away from the fuse tube. The clamping plate is disposed between the connecting ribs, and a through groove is formed on the connecting rib. Both ends of the clamping plate are slidably mounted within the groove. A plug-in is fixedly connected to the side of the connecting rib near the insulator. Both ends of the insulator are fixedly connected to plug-in rods, and the plug-in is slidably inserted into each plug-in rod.

[0007] Preferably, the top and bottom of the clamping plate are respectively provided with sliding rods, the sliding rods are slidably installed in the sliding groove, the end of the sliding rod is provided with a limiting block, the sliding groove is provided with a limiting groove, and the limiting block is slidably installed in the limiting groove.

[0008] Preferably, the clamping plate has a first fixing hole at each end, and the side wall of the hinge frame has a fixing plate extending to one side, and the fixing plate has a second fixing hole.

[0009] Preferably, the sidewall of the hinge frame is provided with spaced grooves, and the side of the clamping plate is provided with protrusions that are adapted to the grooves.

[0010] Preferably, the connector has a stepped arrangement of positioning holes and reinforcing holes, and a ring of spaced insertion grooves is provided on the inner surface of the positioning hole near the insulator.

[0011] Preferably, the outer surface of the plug rod is provided with a ring of plug blocks that are adapted to the plug groove, and the end of the plug rod is provided with a threaded tube.

[0012] Preferably, the plug block is slidably connected to the plug slot, and the threaded tube is slidably installed in the positioning hole.

[0013] Preferably, the fastening bolt passes through the reinforcing hole and is detachably connected to the threaded pipe via a threaded engagement.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified. Furthermore, the terms "installed," "connected," and "linked" should be interpreted broadly; for example, they may refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they may refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they may refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they may refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0030] This invention proposes a drop-out fuse, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the device includes an insulator 1, a fuse tube 2, a hinge frame 5, and a clamping plate 3. Both ends of the fuse tube 2 are fixedly installed with hinge plates 4 extending to the left. The two hinge frames 5 are respectively hinged to the hinge plates 4 by connecting bolts. The left end of the hinge frame 5 is provided with a set of connecting ribs 7 integrally connected with it. The connecting ribs 7 extend vertically from the upper and lower ends of the left side of the hinge frame 5. The clamping plate 3 is located between the two connecting ribs 7, and each connecting rib 7 has a vertically penetrating groove 8. The upper and lower ends of the clamping plate 3 are respectively slidably installed in the groove 8. The side of the connecting rib 7 near the insulator 1 is provided with a plug-in 19 extending towards the insulator 1 and fixedly connected to the connecting rib 7. Both ends of the insulator 1 are respectively provided with plug-in rods 23 fixedly connected to them. The plug-in 23 is adapted to slide and plug into each plug-in rod 23.

[0031] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the top and bottom of the clamping plate 3 are respectively provided with sliding rods 11, which are slidably installed in the sliding groove 8. The end of the sliding rod 11 is provided with a limiting block 12. A limiting groove 9 is opened at the end of the sliding groove 8 away from the clamping plate 3, and the limiting block 12 is slidably installed in the limiting groove 9, so that the clamping plate 3 can move between the two connecting ribs 7. The left side wall of the hinge frame 5 between the two connecting ribs 7 is provided with grooves 10 arranged at intervals. The surface of the clamping plate 3 near the hinge frame 5 is provided with protrusions 13 arranged at intervals that are adapted to the grooves 10. By moving the clamping plate 3, the protrusions 13 can be adapted to the grooves 10 to clamp and fix the fuse led out from the fuse tube 2 and the hinge plate 4, avoiding the fuse from being wrapped and fixed.

[0032] Furthermore, the two ends of the clamping plate 3 are respectively provided with first fixing holes 14, which are countersunk screw holes. The side wall of the hinge frame 5 is provided with fixing plates 15 extending to both sides respectively. The fixing plates 15 are provided with second fixing holes 16. After the clamping plate 3 is moved to a suitable position, the fixing bolt is screwed into the countersunk side of the countersunk screw hole and passes through the second fixing hole 16, and is tightened with the nut, thereby preventing the clamping plate 3 from moving and clamping the fuse between the protrusion 13 and the groove 10 on the clamping plate 3.

[0033] In this embodiment, a protective plate 6 is provided on the side of the connecting rib plate 7 away from the insulator 1 and is fixedly connected to it. The protective plate 6 is an arc-shaped plate and is used to protect the wire clamp plate 3 and fuses outdoors to prevent rainwater from directly washing away them.

[0034] Specifically, such as Figure 2 , 5 As shown, the connector 19 is fixedly connected to the connecting rib 7 on the side near the insulator 1. The connector 19 has a positioning hole 21 and a reinforcing hole 20 arranged in a stepped, coaxial manner. The axes of the two are perpendicular to the bottom surface of the connecting rib 7. The reinforcing hole 20 is located on the side away from the insulator 1. A ring of spaced-apart insertion grooves 22 is provided on the inner surface of the positioning hole 21 near the insulator 1. The insertion grooves 22 are arranged parallel to the axis of the positioning hole 21. A ring of insertion blocks 24, which fit the insertion grooves 22, is provided on the outer surface of the connector rod 23. The insertion blocks 24 are arranged parallel to the axis of the connector rod 23. A threaded tube 25 is provided at the end of the connector rod 23. When the connector 19 is fitted and inserted into the connector rod 23, the connector block 24 is fitted and slidably connected to the connector groove 22. At this time, the threaded tube 25 extends into the positioning hole 21 and can slide towards it. The diameter of the reinforcing hole 20 is not less than the diameter of the internal thread of the threaded tube 25, so that after the connector 19 and the connector rod 23 are fitted and installed, the fastening bolt passes through the reinforcing hole 20 and is threadedly engaged with the threaded tube 25 for detachable connection.

[0035] In this embodiment, the top of the fuse tube 2 is also provided with a suspension member 17 that is fixedly connected to it. The suspension member 17 has a suspension hole 18, which can be quickly suspended when the user needs to suspend the fuse tube 2.

[0036] The working principle of the drop-out fuse of the present invention is as follows: When it is necessary to fix the fuse, first place the fuse between the groove 10 and the protrusion 13, and then move the clamping plate 3 towards the groove 10. At this time, the slide rod 11 slides along the inside of the slide groove 8, and the limiting block 12 also slides along the inside of the limiting groove 9. When the protrusion 13 moves into the inside of the groove 10, the bolt is passed through the first fixing hole 14 and the second fixing hole 16 in sequence and then the nut is tightened for fixation. Then, the plug block 24 is inserted into the inside of the plug groove 22 until the threaded tube 25 passes through the positioning hole 21 and abuts against the stepped surface. Then, the fastening bolt is screwed into the inside of the threaded tube 25 through the reinforcing hole 20.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
