Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to a fusible plug based on temperature signal feedback, belonging to the technical field of plugs. Background Art
[0002] Power cords are widely used in our daily lives. They are used in a wide variety of industries, large and small. Almost anywhere electricity is used, there are power cords. Therefore, power cords are ubiquitous in our lives and are indispensable to our daily lives. Demand for all kinds of electrical appliances is increasing, especially for new energy vehicles that require charging. This generates significant heat, posing a significant safety hazard. A temperature switch is often installed inside the plug to monitor the plug's temperature in real time. The accuracy of the signal provided by the temperature switch is crucial.
[0003] For example, the Chinese patent with authorization announcement number CN 205509163 U discloses a temperature protection plug and a temperature protection appliance, which has a temperature switch inside the plug. The temperature switch is located in the accommodation space between the U-shaped plate and the side plate, so as to prevent fire and other damage caused by heat through the temperature switch. However, the temperature switch is set in an independent accommodation space and is not in direct contact with the plug, which will result in insufficient temperature sensitivity and inability to detect the overheating of the plug in time; if the temperature switch is in direct contact with the plug, the temperature range of the plug will fluctuate greatly, and high temperature will be generated in an instant, causing the circuit to be disconnected. However, the instantaneous high temperature does not mean that a safety accident will occur immediately. Only when the high temperature is maintained for a long time will spontaneous combustion occur. In addition, only a temperature switch is used inside the plug, which has a single function and cannot effectively provide overload protection. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention aims to provide a fusible plug based on temperature signal feedback. The principle behind this design is that a temperature sensor and a fuse are built into the plug. When the temperature exceeds a threshold, the power supply is disconnected based on the temperature sensor signal. When the current exceeds the specified limit, the fuse automatically blows to protect the circuit. Furthermore, a thermally conductive element transmits the plug pin and fuse temperatures to the temperature sensor, enabling it to effectively sense abnormal plug temperatures, reducing the impact of transient high temperatures and providing timely temperature and overload protection.
[0005] In order to achieve the above technical purpose, the technical solution of the present invention is:
[0006] A fusible plug based on temperature signal feedback comprises a plug and a power cord connected in series with the plug, wherein the plug is arranged at the bottom of a base shell, the base shell is provided with a through hole for the plug to pass through, the plug is connected to a plug inner frame, and the plug inner frame is connected to the base shell via an inner frame buckle; a heat conductor is arranged above the plug inner frame, a temperature sensor is arranged between the heat conductor and the plug inner frame, and the temperature of the live wire plug is transmitted to the temperature sensor via the heat conductor; the heat conductor is composed of a plug heat conductive sheet and a fuse card slot, the fuse card slot opening is toward the top of the base shell, a fuse connected in series with the live wire is arranged in the fuse card slot, and the temperature of the fuse is transmitted to the temperature sensor via the heat conductor, and a pressure cover is arranged above the plug heat conductive sheet, and the pressure cover is connected to the base shell via a pressure cover buckle.
[0007] In order to protect the components inside the bottom shell, the bottom shell is provided with a protective cover.
[0008] The latch and the latch inner frame are an integrated structure.
[0009] The heat conducting member is provided with a latch slot, and the live wire latch is located in the latch slot.
[0010] The plug has a crimping portion connected to the power line, the crimping portion is located above the plug inner frame, and the crimping portion of the live wire plug is located in the plug slot.
[0011] The inner frame buckle includes an inner frame hook, which is arranged on the bottom shell and is engaged with the edge of the inner frame of the latch or the inner frame hole of the inner frame of the latch.
[0012] The pressure cover buckle includes a pressure cover hook and a pressure cover slot. The pressure cover hook is arranged on the pressure cover, and the pressure cover slot is arranged on the bottom shell.
[0013] The pressure cover card slots are provided with multiple layers, and the multiple layers of pressure cover card slots are sequentially arranged on the side wall of the bottom shell along the height direction of the bottom shell.
[0014] The bottom shell is provided with a copper ring limiting groove, a copper ring is provided in the copper ring limiting groove, the copper ring is sleeved on the power cord, the copper ring includes a limiting part and an anti-slip part, the anti-slip part is larger than the limiting part, the limiting part is located in the copper ring limiting groove, and the anti-slip part is located in the bottom shell.
[0015] The plug of the present invention is designed with a temperature sensor and a fuse inside. When the temperature exceeds a threshold, the power supply is disconnected based on the temperature sensor signal. When the current exceeds the specified limit, the fuse automatically blows to protect the circuit. The present invention transmits the plug and fuse temperatures to the temperature sensor via a thermal conductor, enabling the temperature sensor to effectively sense abnormal plug temperatures. Whether it's poor plug contact causing the plug to overheat or a circuit overload causing the fuse to blow, the temperature sensor can promptly detect these abnormalities and trigger a protective action (such as power off or an alarm). This significantly improves electrical safety while also reducing the impact of transient high temperatures and providing effective protection.
[0016] The present invention arranges the fuse in the fuse slot, which not only limits the fuse and transmits the temperature of the fuse to the temperature switch, but also facilitates the replacement of the fuse.
[0017] The pressure cap of the present invention helps secure the internal heat conductor and temperature sensor, preventing them from loosening or shifting due to vibration or movement during use, ensuring the stability and long-term reliability of the internal structure. The detachable pressure cap is easy to install and maintains a secure connection, while also facilitating easy assembly and disassembly of the plug.
[0018] In summary, the plug's key features are its dual temperature monitoring for safety and ease of maintenance. Placing the temperature sensor between the heat conductor and the plug's inner frame, and compressing the entire heat-conducting structure with a removable pressure cap, not only ensures efficient and accurate heat transfer to the sensor but also, more importantly, offers convenient maintenance access through "opening the cover to reach the core" while ensuring tight connections and stable operation of the internal components.
