Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] The following is combined with Figure 1-5 To further explain this application,

[0027] The embodiment of the present application discloses a leakage circuit breaker that can be connected in both forward and reverse directions. Figure 1 and Figure 5A leakage circuit breaker capable of forward and reverse wiring comprises a body 1; a wiring hole 2 is provided on the upper side of the left side wall of the body 1; an outlet terminal 3 is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the body 1 and corresponds to the wiring hole 2; a connecting copper sheet 4 is installed on the outlet terminal 3; a first wire 5 is provided at the other end of the connecting copper sheet 4; a resistor 6 is provided at the other end of the first wire 5 and is located in the inner cavity of the body 1; a second wire 7 is provided at the other end of the resistor 6; a connecting column 8 is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the body 1; a test button 9 is installed on the body 1 through the connecting hole; and a fixing column is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the body 1. 10. A button spring 11 is installed on the outer wall of the fixed column 10, and an L-pole copper piece 12 is provided at the inner base of the body 1. The resistor 6 connected to the incoming terminal 13 in the prior art is changed to be connected to the outgoing terminal 3. After closing the switch, one end of the fixed column 10 contacts the connecting column 8, and the other end contacts the L-pole copper piece 12. The switch is opened to form double breakpoint protection, realizing the function of positive and reverse wiring, solving the problem that the existing leakage protector can only be connected in the positive direction, that is, one end inputs the line and the other end outputs the line, and cannot be reversed, otherwise it will be damaged, thereby improving the flexibility and convenience of use of the leakage circuit breaker.

[0028] Reference Figure 1-3 , an inlet terminal 13 is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the body 1 and on the right side, and an operating handle 14 is installed on the body 1;

[0029] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 An air inlet 15 is provided on the left side wall of the body 1, an exhaust hole 16 is provided on the front of the body 1, and a dehumidification structure 17 is installed on the front of the body 1 and corresponding to the exhaust hole 16;

[0030] The dehumidification structure 17 includes a fixed cylinder 1701, a support plate 1702 is mounted on the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 1701, a motor 1703 is mounted on the front of the support plate 1702, a fan blade 1704 is provided at the driving end of the motor 1703 and located inside the fixed cylinder 1701, and a mesh plate 1705 is mounted on the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 1701 and in front of the fan blade 1704;

[0031] The dehumidification structure 17 further includes a humidity sensor 1706 and a controller 1707;

[0032] Among them, through the setting of the dehumidification structure 17, the motor 1703 drives the fan blades 1704 to rotate, and the fan blades 1704 discharge the humid air inside the body 1, thereby enhancing the internal air circulation of the body 1, thereby promoting the evaporation and discharge of moisture inside the body 1, and realizing the function of dehumidifying the body 1. This solves the problem that the existing leakage protector lacks a dehumidification device and the excessive humidity inside the leakage protector will lead to the deterioration of the insulation material performance inside the leakage protector. This greatly reduces the risk of short circuit of the leakage protector and improves the stability of the leakage protector.

[0033] Reference Figure 1-5 The other end of the second wire 7 is connected to the outer wall of the connecting column 8; the rear end of the fixing cylinder 1701 is fixedly connected to the front of the body 1; the humidity sensor 1706 is connected to the inner cavity side wall of the body 1, and the controller 1707 is connected to the inner cavity side wall of the body 1; the connecting column 8 is made of metal; the upper port of the body 1 is fixed with an upper cover 18 by screws;

[0034] The connecting column 8 is made of metal material, so that the connecting column 8 has conductive properties;

[0035] Working principle: The resistor 6 connected to the incoming terminal 13 in the prior art is connected to the outgoing terminal 3 instead. After the manual operating handle 14 is closed, one end of the fixed column 10 contacts the connecting column 8 and the other end contacts the L-pole copper piece 12. The operating handle 14 is driven to open the circuit, and the two ends of the fixed column 10 are disconnected from the connecting column 8 and the L-pole copper piece 12 respectively, forming a double breakpoint protection and realizing the function of positive and negative wiring. The provision of the fixed column 10 solves the problem that the existing leakage protector can only be connected in the positive direction, that is, the line enters at one end and the line exits at the other end, and cannot be reversely connected, otherwise it will be damaged, thereby improving the flexibility and convenience of the leakage circuit breaker.

[0036] A reference value is set for the humidity sensor 1706, and the humidity sensor 1706 is used to sense the air humidity in the body 1. When the air humidity of the body 1 exceeds the reference value set by the humidity sensor 1706, the humidity sensor 1706 transmits information to the controller 1707, and the controller 1707 drives the motor 1703 to work. The motor 1703 drives the fan blades 1704 to rotate, and the fan blades 1704 discharge the humid air inside the body 1, thereby enhancing the internal air circulation of the body 1, thereby promoting the evaporation and discharge of moisture inside the body 1, and realizing the function of dehumidifying the body 1. When the humidity sensor 1706 senses that the air humidity in the body 1 is less than the reference value set by the humidity sensor 1706, the humidity sensor 1706 transmits information to the controller 1707, and the controller 1707 drives the motor 1703 to work. By setting the dehumidification structure 17, the problem of the existing leakage protector lacking a dehumidification device and the problem that excessive humidity inside the leakage protector will cause the performance of its internal insulation material to deteriorate is solved, the risk of short circuit of the leakage protector is greatly reduced, and the stability of the leakage protector is improved.
