[0017] To better illustrate the content of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0018] have Figure 1 As shown, this utility model discloses a composite contact capable of circuit protection, including a housing 17 and a base plate 1 disposed at the bottom of the housing 17. A line connection end 2 is disposed on the housing 17, and a contact end 5 is fixedly disposed inside the housing 17. A mounting groove 7 penetrating the housing 17 is disposed on the upper side of the contact end 5. A contact 9 that contacts the contact end 5 is threadedly connected inside the mounting groove 7. A protection mechanism 900 for circuit protection is disposed between the line connection end 2 and the contact end 5.
[0019] Furthermore, the protection mechanism 900 includes an iron core 19 located inside the outer casing 17 and fixedly connected to the base plate 1. A wire 18 is wound around the iron core 19. One end of the wire 18 is connected to the wire connection terminal 2 via a first wire 20, and the other end of the wire 18 is connected to a second wire 3.
[0020] Furthermore, a partition 4 is provided on the upper side of the iron core 19 and fixed inside the outer shell 17. A control rod 15 located on the upper side of the iron core 19 passes through the middle of the partition 4. The upper end of the control rod 15 is attracted and fixed to the permanent magnet 11. The permanent magnet 11 is fixed to the inner wall of the outer shell 17. A compression spring 16 is fixedly connected between the lower end of the control rod 15 and the lower surface of the partition 4.
[0021] Furthermore, a conductive sheet 10 that can contact the contact end 5 is connected to one side of the control rod 15, and the other end of the second wire 3 is connected to the conductive sheet 10.
[0022] Furthermore, a connecting piece 14 is fixedly connected to the other side of the control lever 15. An indicator rod 13 that penetrates and extends through the outer casing 17 is fixedly connected to the connecting piece 14. A transparent cover 12 fixed to the outer casing 17 is provided at the upper end of the indicator rod 13.
[0023] Furthermore, the contact 9 is provided with an external thread (not shown), and the mounting groove 7 is provided with an internal thread (not shown) that can be threadedly connected to the external thread.
[0024] Furthermore, the contact 9 is provided with a contact 8, and the end of the contact 9 away from the contact 8 is provided with a connecting part 6 that can be inserted into the contact end 5 and is always in contact with the contact end 5.
[0025] Specifically, during installation, screw the contact 9 into the mounting groove 7 so that the connecting part 6 is inserted into the upper part of the contact end 5.
[0026] In the initial state, the control rod 15 is located at the top under the attraction of the permanent magnet 11, and the permanent magnet 11 is in contact with the control rod 15. At this time, the connecting piece 14 is located at the top, the upper end of the indicator rod 13 penetrates the outer shell 17 and can be seen outside the transparent cover 12. At the same time, the conductive piece 10 is located at the top and is in contact with the contact end 5 and can be energized.
[0027] At this time, the compression spring 16 is compressed and tends to move the control rod 15 downward, but it remains fixed due to the attraction of the permanent magnet 11.
[0028] When the line connection terminal 2 and contact 9 are connected to the circuit, the line 18 is energized and the iron core 19 becomes magnetic. At this time, the current in the circuit is normal, and the magnetic force of the iron core 19 is insufficient to overcome the attraction of the permanent magnet 11 to the control rod 15 and drive the control rod 15 to move down.
[0029] When the circuit is short-circuited, the current increases sharply. At this time, the magnetic force of the iron core 19 increases, and the control rod 15 moves down and separates from the permanent magnet 11 under the attraction. At this time, the conductive sheet 10 moves down and separates from the contact end 5. The circuit is then disconnected, and circuit protection is achieved.
[0030] When the circuit is disconnected, the iron core 19 loses its magnetism and is located on the lower side under the action of the compression spring 16. The permanent magnet 11 is far away from the control rod 15, and its magnetic force is greatly reduced, so it is not enough to attract the control rod 15 to move upward.
[0031] At the same time, the indicator rod 13 moves down under the action of the connecting piece 14, and the indicator rod 13 can no longer be seen from the transparent cover 12, indicating that the circuit protection mechanism has been triggered.
[0032] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the technical solutions of this utility model have been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of this utility model.
