[0036] In the following description, if it is indicated to refer to a specific figure or as shown in a specific figure, it is only used to emphasize that most of the related contents described in the subsequent description appear in the specific figure, but it does not limit the subsequent description to only refer to the specific figure.

[0037] Please also read Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 1 and Figure 2 They are schematic diagrams of the connector assembly of the present invention with the cover body closed and the cover body opened, Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 They are respectively a schematic diagram of the connector assembly and the fuse being separated, a schematic diagram of being exploded, and a schematic diagram of the fuse carrying mechanism carrying a fuse according to the present invention.

[0038] The connector assembly 100 of the present invention includes: a fuse carrier 1, a connector 2 and a plurality of connecting wires 3. The connector 2 includes an insulating seat 21 and two connecting terminal groups 22. The two connecting terminal groups 22 are arranged in the insulating seat 21 in an interval and electrically isolated manner, wherein one connecting terminal group 22 is connected to at least one connecting wire 3, and the other connecting terminal group 22 is connected to one of the conductive components 13 of the fuse carrier 1, and the other conductive component 13 of the fuse carrier 1 is connected to the other connecting wires 3. The two connecting terminal groups 22 are respectively used to electrically connect two different power sources (or potentials). The insulating seat 21 may further include a slot, and the two connecting terminal groups 22 may be arranged on both sides of the slot, or as Figure 1 The insulating seat 21 may further include two slots 211 , and the two connecting terminal sets 22 are respectively disposed in the two slots 211 .

[0039] In the drawings of this embodiment, the connector assembly 100 is taken as an example that can carry two fuses 200, but the number of fuses 200 that the connector assembly 100 can carry is not limited thereto. In different embodiments, the connector assembly 100 can also carry only a single fuse 200, or can carry more than three fuses 200. In other words, the fuse carrying mechanism 1 carries one or more fuses and electrically connects a connection terminal group 22 and at least one connection line 3. When the current between the connection terminal group 22 and the at least one connection line 3 exceeds the rated current of the fuse, the fuse will be disconnected to protect the circuit.

[0040] Please also read Figures 4 to 7 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 They are respectively an exploded schematic diagram of the fuse carrying mechanism of the present invention and a top view schematic diagram of the conductive component of the fuse carrying mechanism and the fuse.

[0041] The fuse carrier mechanism 1 includes an insulating housing, two conductive members 13 and two movable members 14. In this embodiment, the insulating housing includes an insulating shell 11 and an insulating body 12, both of which can be independent components from the insulating seat 21 of the connector 2; or the insulating housing and the insulating seat 21 are integrally formed and extended from one side end of the insulating seat 21. The number of conductive members 13 and movable members 14 included in the fuse carrier mechanism 1 is not limited to two. In different embodiments, the fuse carrier mechanism 1 can also include only a single conductive member 13 and a single movable member 14. The movable member 14 is used as a quick release mechanism of the fuse to remove one or more installed fuses.

[0042] The insulating shell 11 may include, for example, a shell body 111 and a cover body 112. The cover body 112 is movably connected to the shell body 111. The insulating body 12 and the two conductive components 13 are disposed in the shell body 111, and a portion of the two movable components 14 is disposed in the shell body 111, and a portion of each movable component 14 is exposed from the shell body 111 for user operation. The cover body 112 and the shell body 111 may have a snap-fit ​​structure respectively, and when the snap-fit ​​structures of the two are snap-fitted with each other, the cover body 112 can form a substantially closed space together with the shell body 111. The insulating shell 11 is mainly used to shield the conductive components 13 to prevent the conductive components 13 from being directly exposed.

[0043] Two conductive members 13 are arranged at intervals on both sides of the insulating body 12 (such as Figure 5 As shown, the two conductive members 13 are arranged vertically in the Z-axis direction, and a gap S is formed between the two conductive members 13. The fuse 200 is arranged between the two conductive members 13, and the two ends of the fuse 200 are electrically connected to the two conductive members 13 respectively. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in actual application, each conductive member 13 includes two elastic clamping structures 135 for clamping the fuse 200. When the fuse 200 is arranged on two conductive members 13 facing each other and the fuse carrying mechanism 1 is in a clamping state, the two elastic clamping structures 135 will be pushed and deformed elastically by the fuse 200, and the fuse 200 will be clamped by the two elastically deformed elastic clamping structures 135 in the Z-axis direction in the figure, thereby, the two conductive members 13 can be electrically connected with the fuse 200, and the range of movement of the fuse 200 in the receiving groove 134 can be further limited. Each conductive member 13 also includes a conductive body 131 and two receiving grooves 134. Each receiving groove 134 includes at least one elastic member. In this embodiment, the receiving groove 134 is defined by an elastic arm 132 and an auxiliary elastic arm 133. The inner edge periphery of the receiving groove 134 is roughly consistent with the outer periphery shape of the conductive parts at both ends of the fuse 200. The two receiving grooves 134 are arranged at intervals. Each receiving groove 134 is used to receive at least a portion of the fuse 200. Each receiving groove 134 of each conductive member 13 is disposed opposite to one of the receiving grooves 134 of another conductive member 13, and the two receiving grooves 134 disposed opposite to each other can jointly carry a single fuse 200. The two receiving grooves 134 and the two elastic clamping structures 135 can both be clamping members that can clamp the fuse 200 and be electrically connected thereto, and in actual application, one of them can be selected for application; if both are used at the same time, the contact area between the conductive member 13 and the fuse 200 can be increased to increase the conducted current.

[0044] A root portion 1321 of each elastic arm 132 is connected to the conductive body 131, and the other end of each elastic arm 132 is a free end 1322. A root portion 1331 of each auxiliary elastic arm 133 is connected to the conductive body 131, and the other end of each auxiliary elastic arm 133 is a free end 1332. Each elastic arm 132 and each auxiliary elastic arm 133 may be, for example, an upright sheet-like structure that is roughly arc-shaped.

[0045] like Figure 7 As shown, in actual application, the fuse 200 can be a tubular fuse. The receiving groove 134 has an opening P, which is formed by the elastic arm 132 and the auxiliary elastic arm 133. A minimum opening distance L1 of the opening P can be slightly smaller than the diameter 200D of the fuse 200. Through the above design, when the fuse 200 passes through the opening P, the free end 1322 of the elastic arm 132 will be pushed outward by the fuse 200 and elastically deformed. Then, the elastic restoring force generated by the elastic deformation of the elastic arm 132 will cause the fuse 200 entering the receiving groove 134 to be effectively clamped by the auxiliary elastic arm 133 and the elastically deformed elastic arm 132.

[0046] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, two movable members 14 are movably connected to the fuse carrier mechanism 1. In practical applications, each movable member 14 can be pivotally connected to two conductive members 13 (or other structures), and the movable member 14 can be operated to rotate relative to the conductive member 13, but the movable member 14 relative to the conductive member 13 is not limited to rotation. In different embodiments, the movable member 14 can be operated to move linearly or translationally relative to the conductive member 13, for example.

[0047] It should be noted that, in the figure of this embodiment, although the movable component 14 is movably connected to the conductive component 13 as an example, the movable component 14 is not limited to being connected to the conductive component 13. As long as the movable component 14 can be operated to move relative to the conductive component 13, it falls within the scope of application of the movable component 14.

[0048] Each movable member 14 includes, for example, a connecting portion 141, a pushing portion 142, and an operating portion 144. The operating portion 144 is an insulator. Preferably, all movable members 14 are insulators. The connecting portion 141 is used to connect with other components (or can be called a quick-release base), for example, two conductive members 13, so that they can be relatively movably connected. Each movable member 14 is pivotally connected to the two conductive members 13, so the connecting portion 141 can include a rotating shaft structure. The connecting portion 141, the pushing portion 142, and the operating portion 144 are connected to each other.

[0049] Each movable member 14 may further include a push structure 143, the push structure 143 is, for example, a structure formed by extending the operating portion 144 to one side, and the movable member 14 as a whole may be roughly presented as an F-shaped structure. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown in the left half of the figure, when the fuse 200 is located in the receiving groove 134 and the movable member 14 is located at a limited position to make the fuse carrying mechanism 1 in a clamping state, a part of the receiving groove 134 (elastic arm 132) is directly or indirectly (i.e., through other components) pushed by the pushing structure 143, and elastically deformed inward (toward the receiving groove 134), thereby forcing the elastic arm 132 to clamp the fuse 200 more tightly, so that the fuse 200 is less likely to be separated from the receiving groove 134. Among them, the other components can be, for example, a structure formed by extending the insulating body 12, preferably, the structure can be a structure similar to the elastic arm. In other embodiments, the pushing structure 143 can also be designed to push against the elastic clamping structure 135. When the pushing structure 143 pushes against the elastic clamping structure 135 to make the fuse carrying mechanism 1 in a clamping state, the elastic clamping structure 135 can clamp the fuse 200 tightly, so that the fuse 200 is less likely to be separated. When the pushing structure 143 is operated and no longer clamps the elastic clamping structure 135 , the fuse 200 can be separated from the fuse supporting mechanism 1 .

[0050] like Figure 6 and Figure 8 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the insulating body 12 may further include a first engaging structure 121, and the movable member 14 may include a second engaging structure 145. When the movable member 14 is located at the restricted position (eg Figure 8 As shown in the left half of the figure, the second engaging structure 145 engages with the first engaging structure 121, thereby keeping the movable member 14 in the restricted position, and the movable member 14 will not move relative to the insulating body 12 or the conductive member 13 at will, so that the fuse carrier 1 is kept in a clamped state. The first engaging structure 121 and the second engaging structure 145 are, for example, a convex strip and a concave groove, respectively.

[0051] The insulating body 12 may also include a limiting portion 122 for limiting at least a portion of the receiving slot 134 (for receiving the fuse 200). Figure 6 and Figure 8In this embodiment, the limiting portion 122 is disposed adjacent to the free end 1332 of the auxiliary elastic arm 133. When the fuse 200 is located in the receiving groove 134 and the movable member 14 is located at the limiting position, one side of the fuse 200 is limited by the elastic arm 132 and the abutting structure 143, while the other side of the fuse 200 is limited by the auxiliary elastic arm 133 and the limiting portion 122. Thus, the installation and disassembly of the fuse 200 can be carried out along the default path and can be better limited in the receiving groove 134. In the embodiment, the limiting portion 122 can also be disposed adjacent to the free end 1322 of the elastic arm 132.

[0052] Please also read Figure 8 and Fig. 9 , Figure 8 is a top view schematic diagram of the fuse carrying mechanism of the present invention, Fig. 9 for Figure 8 The push structure 143 has a protrusion 1432 on the inner side of one end adjacent to the opening P. When the push structure 143 is located at the restricted position, the protrusion 1432 contacts the elastic arm 132, so that the push structure 143 can better push the elastic arm 132.

[0053] Please also read Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Fig.10 , Fig.10 FIG. 1 is a top view of the fuse support mechanism and the fuse of the present invention. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the push-out portion 142 of each movable member 14 is located between the receiving grooves 134 of the two conductive members 13 (i.e., between the elastic arm 132 and the auxiliary elastic arm 133). Figure 5 The Z-axis direction is set at intervals.

[0054] Next, the operation of the movable member 14 as a quick release mechanism will be described. Figure 5 and Fig.10As shown, the operating portion 144 of the movable member 14 is exposed from the fuse carrying mechanism 1. When the two ends of the fuse 200 are respectively located in the two receiving grooves 134 and the movable member 14 is located in the restricted position, if the relevant personnel want to make the fuse 200 withdraw from the receiving groove 134, the relevant personnel can pull the operating portion 144 of the movable member 14 to make the movable member 14 move (move or rotate) relative to the quick release base, so that the push-out portion 142 of the movable member 14 will pass through the space between the two receiving grooves 134 and push the fuse 200 located in the receiving groove 134, and the fuse 200 will be pushed out of the receiving groove 134. The push-out portion 142 has an arc-shaped area or groove to facilitate pushing against the fuse. In the long axis direction of the fuse 200, the area where the fuse 200 is pushed by the push-out portion 142 includes the center of gravity or center of the fuse 200. In other words, the design of the two conductive components 13 and the movable component 14 of the fuse carrier 1 allows the relevant personnel to quickly and easily remove the fuse 200 from the receiving slot 134 without any tools. In some applications, the movable component 14 does not need the operating portion 144, and the connecting portion 141 is used as the operating portion. For example, the connecting portion 141 extends and is exposed outside the quick release base, and the user can push the exposed portion of the connecting portion 141 to make the movable component 14 move relative to the quick release base.

[0055] It should be particularly emphasized that in the above description, the movable member 14 of the fuse carrier mechanism 1 has two functions at the same time. First, when the pushing structure 143 of the movable member 14 is in the restricted position, it can push the elastic arm 132 and / or the elastic clamping structure 135, so that the elastic arm 132 and / or the elastic clamping structure 135 can better clamp the fuse 200; second, the movable member 14 can be operated to push the fuse 200 disposed in the receiving groove 134 out of the receiving groove or release the fuse 200. However, the fuse carrier mechanism 1 of the present invention is not limited to having the above two functions at the same time. In different embodiments, the fuse carrier mechanism 1 can also only have the function of pushing the fuse 200 out of the receiving groove 134.

[0056] Please also read Figures 11 to 13 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 is a schematic diagram of assembly and disassembly of another embodiment of the fuse carrying mechanism of the present invention, Fig.13 for Fig.12Schematic diagram of the section along the section line XIII-XIII. The biggest difference between this embodiment and the previous embodiment is that the insulating body 12 also includes four auxiliary elastic structures 123, and the limiting portion 122 includes four auxiliary limiting structures 124. Each auxiliary elastic structure 123 can be an arc-shaped elastic sheet, and the four auxiliary limiting structures 124 are located at both ends of the insulating body 12, and two adjacent auxiliary limiting structures 124 can be arranged with an upper and lower interval. The four auxiliary limiting structures 124 are located at a position approximately in the center of the insulating body 12, and two adjacent auxiliary limiting structures 124 can be arranged with an upper and lower interval. Each auxiliary elastic structure 123 can be arranged facing one of the auxiliary limiting structures 124.

[0057] like Fig.11 and Fig.13 As shown in the right half of the figure, when the two conductive components 13, the insulating body 12 and the two movable components 14 are assembled with each other, each auxiliary elastic structure 123 is located on the outside of each elastic arm 132 of the conductive component 13 (that is, the elastic arm 132 is opposite to the side facing the auxiliary elastic arm 133), and each auxiliary limiting structure 124 is roughly located on the outside of the auxiliary elastic arm 133 (that is, the auxiliary elastic arm 133 is opposite to the side facing the elastic arm 132).

[0058] like Fig.13 As shown in the left half of the figure, when the fuse 200 is inserted and the movable member 14 is located at the restricted position, the auxiliary elastic structure 123 is located between the pushing structure 143 and the elastic arm 132, and the pushing structure 143 pushes the auxiliary elastic structure 123 and elastically deforms in the direction of the elastic arm 132 to indirectly push the elastic arm 132, so that the fuse 200 is better held.

[0059] In a preferred application, the outer side of the auxiliary elastic structure 123 may also have a first auxiliary engaging structure 1231, and the inner side of the push structure 143 may have a second auxiliary engaging structure 1433. Fig.13 As shown in the left half of the figure, when the movable component 14 is located in the restricted position, the first auxiliary engaging structure 1231 is engaged with the second auxiliary engaging structure 1433. In this way, the movable component 14 located in the restricted position will not be easily affected by external force and will not shake or leave the restricted position.

[0060] In summary, the connector assembly 100 of the present invention, through the design of the fuse carrying mechanism 1 and the like, allows relevant personnel to quickly and easily remove the fuse 200 from the connector assembly 100 without using additional tools. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the relevant personnel only need to open the cover 112, and then rotate the movable member 14 in the direction of the cover 112, so that the fuse 200 can be removed from the receiving groove 134. On the contrary, when the relevant personnel want to place the fuse 200 into the connector assembly 100, when the cover 112 is opened, the relevant personnel only need to slightly pull the movable member 14 so that the pushing structure 143 of the movable member 14 does not push against the elastic arm 132 and / or the elastic clamping structure 135, and then directly push the fuse 200 into the receiving groove 134 of the fuse carrying mechanism 1. In the process of the fuse 200 being pushed into the receiving groove 134, the fuse 200 will drive the movable member 14 to rotate. Finally, the relevant personnel only need to confirm that the second engaging structure 145 of the movable member 14 is engaged with the first engaging structure 121 of the insulating body 12, and the installation of the fuse 200 can be completed.

[0061] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent technical changes made using the contents of the present invention description and drawings are included in the protection scope of the present invention.
