[0002] Currently, many industrial sectors, such as petroleum, chemical, coal, and defense, frequently leak or spill various flammable and explosive gases, liquids, dusts, and fibers during production, processing, transportation, and storage. When these substances mix with air, they can form explosive mixtures. When the concentration of such mixtures reaches explosive limits, the presence of an ignition source can cause serious accidents such as explosions and fires.
[0003] The explosion-proof manual alarm is suitable for the above-mentioned working environment. Its main function is to manually trigger the alarm in the event of a fire, so that relevant personnel can take measures quickly to prevent the fire from spreading and reduce the risks that may be caused by the delay of automatic detection by the equipment. However, the alarm needs to be unlocked by a specific key to reset the trigger plate. Since there are many keys, they are not easy to keep and are easy to lose or distinguish, which makes the reset process quite troublesome. Therefore, the applicant has made a useful design and found a solution to the above problems. The technical solution to be introduced below is generated in this context. Summary of the Invention
