DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] Clearly, the described embodiments are merely a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of the present application.
[0019] The surge protection device is used for protecting electrical equipment from damage caused by surges or surges. The surge or surge is usually caused by transient voltage fluctuations due to lightning, switch operation, power system failure, etc. These fluctuations may exceed the range of the device, causing damage to the device, unstable operation or reducing the service life. Current tests for surge protectors are all single waveforms, while real lightning has multiple pulse discharge characteristics. This will result in a relatively poor actual use effect of the surge protection device compared to the test. There is also a lot of instability in the running process, and even the possibility of fire and burning phenomenon may occur, which poses a safety hazard, causing huge losses to power, communication and personal safety, etc. The existing surge protection device can withstand fewer pulses, and the protection device must be replaced in time once it is damaged, and the ability to deal with unexpected situations is poor. The lightning protection device provided by the present application can withstand continuous surge impact by setting four varistors 3, two of which are a group, divided into two areas, namely the main area and the standby area. The response time of the main area is much faster than that of the standby area. When the main area is operating, the standby area does not operate. When the main area is subjected to a maximum of 10 pulse impacts, it can withstand multiple pulses again after cooling to room temperature. Each varistor 3 is connected by soldering 5 through the first PCB board 4 and the tripping protection metal spring 6. When the main area is damaged, the soldering point will melt when the temperature is too high, and the tripping protection metal spring 6 will pop up and push the corresponding micro switch 11 upwards, realizing the switching function. The micro switch 11 and the indicator light 12 are also connected through the second PCB board 10, realizing the indication and transmission of the fault signal function. The spring pops up and the main area does not operate. When the main area is damaged and fails, the standby area starts to work and replaces the main area to continue to work. The surge protection device provides a secondary protection mechanism, improves the anti-surge impact capability, saves the replacement cost, improves the ability to deal with unexpected situations, and provides a longer fault tolerance time for replacing the surge protector.
[0020] As Figures 1-4As shown, the utility model provides a technical scheme: a lightning protection device that can bear continuous surge impact, including first casing 1, the top of first casing 1 is equipped with second casing 2, four piezoresistors 3 are arranged in first casing 1, two two are a group, and are divided into two areas, and are main area and standby area respectively, first PCB board 4 is arranged above four piezoresistors 3, four connecting ports are formed in first PCB board 4, soldering tin 5 is slidably connected in four connecting ports, the bottom of soldering tin 5 is connected with piezoresistor 3, soldering tin 5 is located above first PCB board 4 and is equipped with tripping protection metal spring 6, and one end bottom of tripping protection metal spring 6 is equipped with terminal 7. The inner wall of the top of second casing 2 is equipped with second PCB board 10, four microswitches 11 are installed at the bottom of second PCB board 10, and four indicator lights 12 are installed at the top of second casing 2.
[0021] It should be noted that by setting 4 piezoresistors 3, two two are a group, and are divided into two areas, and are main area and standby area respectively, the response time of main area is much faster than that of standby area. When the main area operates, the standby area does not operate, and after the maximum 10 pulse impacts are received by the main area, the main area can bear multiple pulses again after cooling to normal temperature. Each piezoresistor 3 is connected with tripping protection metal spring 6 by first PCB board 4 and soldering tin 5. When the main area is damaged, the soldering tin 5 will melt once the temperature of the tripping solder joint is too high, and the tripping protection metal spring 6 will pop up and press against the corresponding microswitch 11 above, realizing the switching function. The microswitch 11 and the indicator light 12 are also connected by the second PCB board 10, realizing the indication and transmission of fault signal. When the main area is damaged and fails, the standby area starts to work and replaces the main area to continue working. The surge protection device provides a secondary protection mechanism, improves the anti-surge impact capability, saves the replacement cost, improves the ability to deal with unexpected situations, and provides a longer fault tolerance time for replacing the surge protector.
[0022] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , four sockets 14 are formed in one side of first casing 1. A plurality of heat dissipation holes 15 are formed in the bottom end of first casing 1. A mounting shell 8 is installed at the top end of first casing 1 and is inserted into second casing 2. A plurality of limiting blocks 9 are fixed to the outer wall of mounting shell 8, and a plurality of limiting openings 13 corresponding to the limiting blocks 9 are formed in the outer wall of second casing 2, and the limiting blocks 9 are inserted into the limiting openings 13.
[0023] It should be noted that the first shell 1 is cooled through the heat dissipation port 15, the first shell 1 and the second shell 2 are connected through the limiting block 9, and the mounting shell 8 and the limiting block 9 are both elastic and can be bent and deformed to a certain extent without breaking, can adapt to the slight displacement and vibration of the connecting components, and ensure the stability of the connection.
[0024] Although the embodiments of the present application have been shown and described, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present application, and the scope of the present application is defined by the appended embodiments and their equivalents.
