DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of 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.

[0021] In the description of the present invention, it is necessary to understand that the directions or positional relationships indicated by the terms "up", "down", "left" and "right" are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0022] In the embodiment of the present invention, "and / or" is only a description of the association relationship of the associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.

[0023] Reference example Figures 1 to 3A surge backup protector with remote signaling function, comprising an arc extinguishing chamber 1, and also comprising: a micro switch 2, which is arranged at the arc extinguishing entrance of the arc extinguishing chamber 1; a static contact frame 3, which is arranged on the opposite side of the micro switch 2, and the static contact frame 3 is provided with an arc striking portion 31, and is arranged below the entrance of the arc extinguishing chamber 1; a dynamic contact frame 4, which is arranged between the micro switch 2 and the static contact frame 3, and abuts against any one of the micro switches 2 or the static contact frame 3; an electromagnetic release 5, which is arranged above the arc extinguishing chamber 1, and the electromagnetic release 5 is connected to the arc extinguishing chamber 1 by a soft connection The wiring 8 is electrically connected to the moving contact frame 4. By arranging the micro switch 2 at the entrance of the arc extinguishing chamber 1, the distance between the micro switch 2 and the static contact frame 3 is shortened and the micro switch 2 is within the range of movement of the moving contact frame 4, thereby improving the space utilization rate in the housing 6, so that there is sufficient space in the housing 6 to install the arc extinguishing chamber 1 and provide convenience for assembling other parts, thereby improving the arc extinguishing ability of the arc extinguishing chamber 1, and guiding the arc at the moment when the moving contact frame 4 and the static contact frame 3 are separated to the arc extinguishing chamber 1 through the arc striking portion 31, thereby achieving the arc extinguishing effect;

[0024] It is worth mentioning that the housing 6 includes a first terminal 61 and a second terminal 62 at both ends of the housing 6. The first terminal 61 is electrically connected to the other end of the electromagnetic release 5, and the second terminal 62 is electrically connected to the static contact frame 3. The static contact frame 3 is provided with a static contact 32. The first terminal 61 and the second terminal 62 are electrically connected to the circuit. The electromagnetic release 5 monitors the current in the circuit. When the current exceeds the allowable limit, the electromagnetic release 5 acts and pushes the release member of the operating mechanism 7 to separate the moving contact frame 4 from the static contact frame 3, thereby cutting off the current supply of the circuit to prevent damage to the electrical appliance.

[0025] It is worth mentioning that a signal terminal 63 is provided in the housing 6 and is electrically connected to the lead-out end of the micro switch 2. The signal terminal 63 is arranged below the second wiring terminal 62. When the moving contact frame 4 is separated from the static contact frame 3 and the abutment portion 41 triggers the micro switch 2, a disconnection signal is sent to the backstage through the signal terminal 63, thereby realizing the remote signaling function of the backup protector.

[0026] It is worth mentioning that an operating mechanism 7 is provided in the housing 6, and the moving contact frame 4 is linked to the operating mechanism 7. The moving contact frame 4 is provided with a contact portion 41, and a moving contact 42 is provided on the back of the contact portion 41. The opening and closing operations of the backup protector are completed by the operating mechanism 7. The contact portion 41 is used to trigger the micro switch 2, and the moving contact 42 abuts against the static contact 32, and the contact is used for transmitting current.

[0027] It is worth mentioning that the shell 6 is provided with a limit portion 64, and is arranged above the micro switch 2, for limiting the swing angle of the moving contact frame 4. The shell 6 is also provided with a supporting portion 65, and is arranged between the electromagnetic release 5 and the arc extinguishing chamber 1. When the line is short-circuited, the elastic force released by the torsion spring in the operating mechanism 7 drives the moving contact frame 4 to move rapidly. At this time, the limit portion 64 not only limits the swing angle of the moving contact frame 4, but also reduces the kinetic energy impact force of the moving contact frame 4 on the micro switch 2. The supporting portion 65 provides a support point for the electromagnetic release.

[0028] The above design scheme can enable the product to achieve the advantages of reducing manufacturing costs and improving assembly efficiency.

[0029] The above content is a further detailed description of the utility model in combination with specific implementation methods. It cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the utility model is limited to these descriptions. For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the utility model belongs, without departing from the concept of the utility model, they can also make several simple deductions or substitutions, which should be regarded as belonging to the scope of protection determined by the claims submitted for the utility model.
