Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of current-limiting protectors, and in particular to an electrical fire-resistant current-limiting protector with an isolating contact. Background Technology

[0002] In electrical fire-resistant current-limiting protectors, to prevent water droplets from entering the heat dissipation holes and causing internal circuit short circuits, a waterproof structure is added to the heat dissipation holes on the top of the housing, as shown in patent CN215343881U. This structure utilizes the weight of the water droplets to push the sealing cover downwards, sealing the outer frame and preventing water droplets from entering. However, in practical applications, the weight of water droplets is extremely small, often failing to trigger due to insufficient trigger sensitivity of the sealing cover. Therefore, improvements have been made. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this application is to provide an electrical fire-resistant current-limiting protector with isolation contacts, which aims to solve the problems existing in the prior art.

[0004] This application provides an electrical fireproof current-limiting protector with isolation contacts, including a housing and electronic components fixed inside the housing. The housing is characterized by a longitudinally penetrating heat dissipation pipe fixed inside, with diffuser pipes of increased length and width fixedly connected to both ends of the heat dissipation pipe, forming an I-shape. The top surface of the diffuser pipe at the upper end of the heat dissipation pipe is open, and the bottom surface of the diffuser pipe at the lower end of the heat dissipation pipe is open. First heat dissipation holes are provided on the housing corresponding to the diffuser pipes at both ends, and these first heat dissipation holes are directly connected to the diffuser pipes. Second heat dissipation holes are provided on both the left and right sides of the housing.

[0005] Furthermore, the diffuser tubes at the upper and lower ends of the heat dissipation pipe are fixedly connected to the top and bottom surfaces of the housing, respectively. The first heat dissipation holes at the upper and lower ends of the housing are connected through the heat dissipation pipe, and the heat dissipation pipe isolates the first heat dissipation holes from the internal space of the housing.

[0006] Furthermore, the two opposite sidewalls inside the heat pipe are alternately provided with inwardly protruding ridges.

[0007] Furthermore, the raised ridges correspond to the recesses formed on the outer surface of the heat pipe.

[0008] Furthermore, the heat pipe is made of stainless steel.

[0009] Furthermore, the second heat dissipation hole is circular, and a cover is fixed above the second heat dissipation hole.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention features a vertically penetrating heat dissipation pipe within the housing. This heat dissipation pipe isolates the electronic components within the housing, ensuring ventilation and heat dissipation while preventing water droplets from entering the heat dissipation holes and contacting the electronic components, thus preventing short circuits. This allows the device to be used even in dripping environments. Furthermore, water droplets falling into the heat dissipation pipe vaporize upon heating, carrying away heat and further enhancing the heat dissipation effect on the electronic components. The enlarged diffuser pipes connected to both ends of the heat dissipation pipe ensure a larger number of heat dissipation holes, occupying a larger area, thereby promoting heat dissipation and highlighting the small size of the heat dissipation pipe, reducing the space it occupies.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an electrical fire-resistant current-limiting protector with isolating contacts includes a housing 1 and electronic components 2 fixed inside the housing 1. A longitudinally penetrating heat dissipation pipe 3 is fixed inside the housing 1. Both ends of the heat dissipation pipe 3 are fixedly connected to diffuser pipes 4 with increased length and width, forming an I-shape with the heat dissipation pipe 3 and the diffuser pipes 4. Figure 3As shown. The electronic components 2 inside the housing 1 can be fixedly connected to the outer surface of the heat sink 3 or the diffuser 4, so that the heat generated by the electronic components 2 can be dissipated through the heat sink 3 or the diffuser 4. The projected area of ​​the diffuser 4 is larger than that of the heat sink 3, which ensures that there are more first heat dissipation holes 5, occupying a certain area, thereby promoting the ventilation and heat dissipation effect. Furthermore, the cross-sectional area of ​​the heat sink 3 is relatively smaller, occupying less space inside the housing 1, so that the overall volume of the protector can be reduced.

[0019] The diffuser 4 at the upper end of the heat dissipation pipe 3 is open at the top, and the diffuser 4 at the lower end of the heat dissipation pipe 3 is open at the bottom. The housing 1 has first heat dissipation holes 5 corresponding to the diffuser 4 at both ends, and these holes are directly connected to the diffuser 4. The diffuser 4 at both ends of the heat dissipation pipe 3 is fixedly connected to the top and bottom surfaces of the housing 1, respectively. The first heat dissipation holes 5 at both ends of the housing 1 are connected through the heat dissipation pipe 3, isolating the first heat dissipation holes 5 from the internal space of the housing 1. The first heat dissipation holes 5 at both ends form air inlets and outlets, creating airflow within the heat dissipation pipe 3, thereby carrying away heat conducted to the heat dissipation pipe 3 or diffuser 4, achieving ventilation and heat dissipation. Furthermore, the heat dissipation pipe 3 isolates the first heat dissipation holes 5 from the electronic components 2 inside the housing 1. Even if water drips above the protector and enters the first heat dissipation hole 5, the water will flow inside the heat dissipation pipe 3 / diffraction pipe 4 and will not contact the electronic components 2, thus protecting the electronic components 2. The water droplets evaporate within the heat dissipation pipe 3 / diffraction pipe 4, carrying away heat and further improving the heat dissipation effect of the heat dissipation pipe 3 / diffraction pipe 4.

[0020] like Figure 4 As shown, the heat sink 3 has alternating inwardly protruding ridges 6 on two opposite sidewalls inside. The ridges 6 increase the surface area of ​​the heat sink 3, thereby increasing the heat dissipation effect. The ridges 6 also form recesses on the outer surface of the heat sink 3, making the wall thickness at the ridges 6 the same as the thickness of the straight wall portion of the heat sink 3, which helps to dissipate heat quickly.

[0021] The heat dissipation pipe 3 is made of stainless steel. It has both the thermal conductivity of metal and the waterproof and rustproof properties, thus ensuring a long service life.

[0022] The housing 1 has second heat dissipation holes 7 on both its left and right sides, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the second heat dissipation hole 7 is circular, and a shield 8 is fixed above the second heat dissipation hole 7. The two opposing second heat dissipation holes 7 form a horizontal airflow inside the housing 1, which plays a role in ventilation and heat dissipation for the electronic components 2 inside the housing 1. Moreover, the shield 8 covers the second heat dissipation hole 7 from top to bottom, which plays a role in preventing water dripping from above from entering the interior of the housing 1.
