Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power equipment technology, and in particular to a protective cover. Background Technology
[0002] Drop-out surge arresters are usually installed on drop-out fuses, and the two are used together to provide short-circuit protection and lightning protection for overhead distribution lines. In order to prevent the exposed drop-out surge arresters and drop-out fuses from being corroded by the environment and disturbed by animals, protective covers are mainly used for isolation. However, the existing protective covers are slit-type. When using them, the protective cover needs to be pried open along the slit before it is snapped onto the drop-out surge arrester. This method is easily damaged if too much force is used or if the force is not applied properly, and it requires a lot of force to pry it open.
[0003] It is evident that existing technologies still need improvement and enhancement. Utility Model Content

[0030] Fixing member 4 is located on the bottom of the second lower cover 22.
[0031] This utility model discloses a protective cover, including a front cover 1, a rear cover 2, a connecting device 3, and a fixing member 4. The front cover 1 includes a first upper cover 11 and a first lower cover 12, and the rear cover 2 includes a second upper cover 21 and a second lower cover 22. In use, the front cover 1 and the rear cover 2 are respectively inserted into the outside of a drop-out arrester or a drop-out fuse. The front cover 1 and the rear cover 2 are connected by the connecting device 3, and the fixing member 4 fixes the protective cover to the drop-out arrester or the drop-out fuse. The protective cover disclosed in this application is easy to assemble, and the split structure allows for the replacement of individual parts, reducing the cost of replacement and maintenance due to damage.
[0032] The connecting device 3 includes a connector strip 31, a connector groove 32, an angle 33, and a locking mechanism 34. The connector groove 32 is located on the end face of the front cover 1 near the rear cover 2, and the connector groove 32 is located on the end face of the rear cover 2 near the front cover 1. The angle 33 is located on the edge of the connector groove 32 near the connector strip 31. The connector groove 32 and the connector strip 31 are engaged.
