[0032] A kind of graphite gap L-N surge protector, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 And Figure 3As shown, it comprises: a shell; two conductive electrodes 3, respectively arranged at both ends of the shell; two mounting racks 4, respectively arranged at both sides of the inside of the shell; a plurality of graphite sheets 5, inserted between the two mounting racks 4; two conductive body skeletons 6, respectively laid on both sides of the graphite sheet 5 close to the shell; a nonlinear voltage-dependent resistor layer 7 arranged on the inner wall of the conductive body skeleton 6.
[0033] Specifically, the mounting rack 4 plays a supporting and fixing role of the graphite sheet 5, and ensures the position stability of the graphite sheet 5. The conductive body skeleton 6 is in close contact with the graphite sheet 5, which can ensure that the conductive body skeleton 6 can quickly introduce lightning current into the ground when suffering from lightning, and effectively protect the electrical equipment.
[0034] Further, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the adjacent two graphite sheets 5 have a graphite gap 8 between them, and the nonlinear voltage-dependent resistor layer 7 has a micro gap 701 on the side close to the graphite sheet 5.
[0035] Specifically, the plurality of graphite sheets 5 form a plurality of graphite gaps 8, which can gradually absorb and release overvoltage energy, reduce residual voltage, and improve protection effect. The nonlinear voltage-dependent resistor layer 7 includes a trigger ignition circuit, which can quickly conduct under overvoltage conditions, forming a low-impedance path so that the current can quickly pass through, thereby triggering the micro gap 701 to discharge in advance.
[0036] In actual application, the nonlinear voltage-dependent resistor layer 7 is attached to the conductive body skeleton 6 by sintering process, and then laser etching is performed on the nonlinear voltage-dependent resistor layer 7 to form a micro gap 701. When there is an abnormally high voltage between the lines, the micro gap 701 ignites to trigger the multiple graphite gaps 8 to discharge in advance, improving the safety performance of the product; at the same time, the residual voltage of the multiple graphite gaps 8 product is reduced, the voltage protection level is improved, the product's current interruption capability is improved, and the problem of external trigger circuit is solved.
[0037] Further, the inside of the shell is filled with inert gas.
[0038] Specifically, the ionization voltage of the inert gas is low and the ionization stability is high, so that the discharge process can be triggered more effectively. At the same time, the inert gas can prevent oxidation reaction of the graphite sheet 5 and the conductive body skeleton 6 and other components, and improve the stability and reliability of the surge protector.
[0039] Further, as shown in Figure 4 , the inner side of the mounting rack 4 is provided with a plug-in slot 401, and the graphite sheet 5 is inserted into the plug-in slot 401, which ensures the close cooperation between the graphite sheet 5 and the mounting rack 4, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the structure of the multiple graphite gaps 8.
[0040] Further, as shown in Figure 2As shown, the housing further comprises two blocking pieces 9, which are arranged between the housing and the conductive electrodes 3.
[0041] Specifically, the blocking pieces 9 are used to close the housing and prevent external impurities, moisture, etc. from entering the interior of the housing.
[0042] Further, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the housing comprises an inner housing 1 and an outer housing 2, the outer housing 2 is sleeved on the inner housing 1, and the inner housing 1 is sleeved on the mounting frame 4.
[0043] Specifically, the outer housing 2 provides external protection, and the inner housing 1 further protects the conductive body framework 6, the graphite sheet 5, the mounting frame 4, etc. to ensure the normal operation and stability of the surge protector.
[0044] Further, as shown in Figure 2 , the housing further comprises four fixing pieces 10, both ends of the inner housing 1 on the upper and lower sides are provided with clamping grooves 101, and the fixing pieces 10 are clamped with the corresponding clamping grooves 101.
[0045] Specifically, the fixing pieces 10 are clamped on the clamping grooves 101, which can enhance the connection stability between the conductive body framework 6 and the inner housing 1, and prevent loosening or displacement during operation.
[0046] Further, as shown in Figure 2 , the inner wall of the inner housing 1 is provided with a recess 102, which is used to accommodate the conductive body framework 6, so that the conductive body framework 6 can be tightly embedded in the inner housing 1, ensuring its stability during operation.
[0047] Further, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 , the two conductive electrodes 3 are arranged in the diagonal direction at both ends of the housing, which ensures that the current can be evenly distributed and conducted when the surge protector is struck by lightning, avoiding damage to the equipment due to current concentration.
[0048] Further, the housing, the mounting frame 4 and the conductive body framework 6 are all made of conductive ceramic material.
[0049] Specifically, the conductive ceramic material has good electrical conductivity and mechanical strength, and can maintain stability under high voltage and high current conditions, thereby improving the durability and reliability of the surge protector.
[0050] The working principle of the utility model is: the multilayer graphite gap 8 is in parallel in the circuit, when the power grid voltage is normal, the multilayer graphite gap 8 is not conductive, and is in standby state, when the circuit suffers lightning or overvoltage, the micro gap 701 ignites and triggers the multilayer graphite gap 8 to discharge in advance, the inert gas between the graphite sheets 5 is ionized, the discharge between the two graphite sheets 5 makes the graphite gap 8 conductive, and the lightning current is introduced into the ground to protect the electrical equipment, after the lightning current, the multilayer graphite gap 8 restores the non-conductive state, the whole process effectively improves the safety performance of the product, reduces the residual voltage, improves the voltage protection level, and improves the extinction current capacity, and solves the problem of the bulky external trigger circuit.
[0051] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation manners of the utility model, and the description is more specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as the limitation of the utility model patent scope. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled person in the art, without departing from the concept of the utility model, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent should be subject to the appended claims.
