[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0029] Refer to the instruction manual Figure 1-10 The utility model provides a thermal relay phase loss structure, comprising a thermal relay 1 and a phase loss component 2 installed in the thermal relay 1, wherein the phase loss component 2 comprises a first linkage bracket 3, a second linkage bracket 4 and a flip mechanism 5, wherein the second linkage bracket 4 is arranged at the bottom of the first linkage bracket 3, and a control rod 6 and three bimetallic strips 7 are passed through between the first linkage bracket 3 and the second linkage bracket 4, and the three bimetallic strips 7 are all connected to the thermal relay 1;
[0030] Specifically, the first linkage bracket 3 includes a first housing 301, the first housing 301 is slidably disposed in the thermal relay 1, a concave groove 302, a rectangular groove 303 and a convex groove 304 are provided at the bottom of the first housing 301, a first rotating shaft 305 is provided between the rectangular groove 303 and the convex groove, and three convex bumps 306 are fixedly provided at the top of the first housing 301;
[0031] Specifically, the second linkage bracket 4 includes a second shell 401, a convex groove 2 402 and a convex groove 3 403 are opened on the top of the second shell 401, three convex bumps 404 are fixedly provided on the top of the second shell 401, two U-shaped supporting legs 405 are fixedly provided on the bottom of the second shell 401, and a second rotating shaft 406 is fixedly provided between the two U-shaped supporting legs 405;
[0032] The top end of the control rod 6 respectively penetrates the rectangular groove 303 and the convex groove 1 304 of the first shell 301, and the bottom end of the control rod 6 respectively penetrates the convex groove 2 402 and the convex groove 3 403 of the second shell 401. The three bimetallic strips 7 respectively penetrate the convex groove 1 304 of the first shell 301 and the convex groove 2 402 and the convex groove 3 403 of the second shell 401.
[0033] Moreover, the cross-section of the control rod 6 is processed into an upper and lower herringbone shape, the top of the control rod 6 is processed with a U-shaped groove 11 for being tangent to the first rotating shaft 305, the top of one side of the control rod 6 is processed with an action contact plane 12, and the bottom of the control rod 6 is processed with an L-shaped groove 13 for being tangent to the second rotating shaft 406.
[0034] When in use, the thermal relay 1 is connected to the motor. When the thermal relay 1 is powered on, the three bimetallic strips 7 are heated and bent to the right, but the bending deflection is not enough, so the first housing 301 moves a short distance to the right, so that the thermal relay 1 does not operate. When the three bimetallic strips 7 are overloaded at the same time, the three bimetallic strips 7 are bent to the right at the same time, pushing the convex hull 306 of the first housing 301 to move to the right, driving the action contact plane 12 of the control rod 6 to drive the flip mechanism 5 to operate, so that the normally closed contact is immediately disconnected. At this time, the convex groove 30 After the phase is broken, the bimetallic strip 7 in 4 gradually cools down, causing the end to move to the left, pushing the convex bump 2 404 of the second housing 401 to move to the left, while the temperature of the bimetallic strip 7 in the convex groove 2 402 and the convex groove 3 403 rises, and the end bends to the right, pushing the first housing 301 to continue to move to the right. Since the first housing 301 and the second housing 401 move left and right, a differential action is generated, and the normally closed contact is opened through the amplification effect. Due to the differential action, the thermal relay 1 accelerates the action when a phase failure occurs to protect the motor.

The three convex humps 404 are all arranged in a rectangle shape and are distributed in a linear array at the top of the second shell 401, for the fitting of the first shell and the second shell 401.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
