Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a surge protector, in particular to a backup protector with a step-by-step increasing current flow function. Background Art

[0002] The backup protector is a device used for overcurrent protection at the front end of the surge protector. It is an external disconnect device for the surge protector used in low-voltage power supply systems. It can withstand the expected surge current at the installation location of the backup surge protector and can disconnect the power frequency overcurrent generated by the failure of the surge protector. It also has the characteristic of power frequency low current operation.

[0003] In power systems, overcurrent or surges can occur due to various reasons (such as lightning strikes, equipment failures, and circuit overloads). These can cause serious damage to equipment or the entire power system, or even lead to safety incidents such as fires. Therefore, a device is needed to provide additional protection when surge protectors fail or are unable to respond in a timely manner.

[0004] It is in this context that backup protectors are widely used. They are typically installed in front of a surge protector, working in conjunction with it to provide multi-layered protection. If the surge protector malfunctions for some reason, the backup protector can quickly respond and disconnect the circuit, preventing equipment damage or fires.

[0005] In terms of technological development, backup protectors are constantly innovating and improving to enhance their response speed, accuracy, and reliability. For example, some advanced backup protectors feature intelligent identification and remote control capabilities, enabling real-time monitoring of circuit status and enabling operation and adjustments via remote control systems. The application of these technologies has significantly improved the safety and reliability of power systems.

[0006] In summary, the background technology of backup protectors mainly involves safety and reliability issues in power systems, as well as the continuous technological innovations and improvements to address these issues.

[0007] Patent No. ZL202220940751.1, with an announcement date of October 21, 2022, discloses a surge protector for lightning protection engineering, comprising a slide rail body, the surface of which is longitudinally slidably connected to the surge protector body, the interior of which is laterally slidably connected to a moving rod via a limit groove and a limit rod, the top and bottom of the moving rod are both provided with a movable groove, and the interior of the movable groove is movably connected to a connecting rod via a pin. The utility model solves the problem that the stability of the existing surge protector needs to be improved by providing a slide rail body, a surge protector body, a moving rod, a movable groove, a connecting rod, an insert, a round block, a support plate, a spring, a clamping groove, a fixing plate, an outlet and a push rod. When the surge protector is in use, it is generally slidably limited on the surface of the slide rail for fixed use. The slide rail can only limit the surge protector and cannot effectively ensure that the surge protector is stably placed on the surface of the slide rail, thereby reducing the stability of the surge protector. This solution also has the problem of not having a step-by-step flow-through function, which may cause damage to the protected circuits or products due to lack of protection during the safety protection process. Utility Model Content

[0008] The utility model aims to solve the problem that the existing backup protector has only a single through-current protection but no step-by-step increasing through-current function, which easily leads to damage to the protected circuit or product due to lack of protection during the safety protection process. The utility model provides a surge protector with a step-by-step increasing through-current function, which can reduce the protection blind area, improve the safety protection of use to a greater extent, and more effectively avoid damage to the protected circuit or product.

Through the above-mentioned combined protection of the left backup protector, the surge protector provides more comprehensive protection, reduces the protection blind area, improves the safety protection of use to a greater extent, and more effectively avoids damage to the protected lines or products.

[0010] Preferably, the three components of the electromagnetic coil DCX, the gas discharge tube FDG and the unidirectional gap JX together constitute a step-by-step increasing current backup protector.

[0011] Preferably, the backup protector is provided with an arc extinguishing hood, which is arranged in the enclosed space area formed by the B connection point, the electromagnetic coil, the gas discharge tube and the KG-2 end moving contact.

[0020] The electromagnetic coil DCX, gas discharge tube FDG, and unidirectional gap JX together constitute a step-by-step current backup protector. The backup protector 10 is mounted and connected with a B connection point. The backup protector 10 is also mounted and connected with an arc extinguishing hood 14, which is mounted and connected in the space formed by the B connection point, the electromagnetic coil DCX, the gas discharge tube FDG, and the KG-2 moving contact. The B connection point is mounted and connected outside the electromagnetic coil DCX and the gas discharge tube FDG. The backup switch KG is mounted and connected at the operating end of the backup protector 10. The KG-1 static contact and KG-2 moving contact of the backup switch KG are located inside the backup protector's incoming line terminal 11 and outside the electromagnetic coil DCX. The backup protector's incoming line terminal 11 and the backup protector's output terminal 12 are located at the two most distant locations on the backup protector 10, facing away from each other.

[0021] When in use, the backup protector connection method is:

[0022] First, introduce the KG-1 static contact through the incoming line end, then connect the moving contact from the KG-2 end to point A, and connect the two ends of the three components DCX, FDG, and JX to points A and B in parallel, and then connect point B to the output end.

[0023] Working principle of backup protector:
