Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of fuses, and specifically to a fuse with a prompting function. Background Technology

[0002] A fuse is an electrical device that breaks the circuit by melting its fusible element when the current exceeds a specified value. Fuses are current protection devices that utilize the principle that when the current exceeds a specified value for a certain period, the heat generated by the fuse itself melts the fusible element, thus breaking the circuit. Fuses are widely used in high and low voltage power distribution systems, control systems, and electrical equipment as short-circuit and overcurrent protectors, and are one of the most commonly used protective devices.

[0003] A fuse consists of a fusible element and a base. The fusible element is made of a metal wire or sheet electrode with a low melting point. It is used in the protected circuit. When an overload or short circuit occurs in the circuit or equipment within it, the fusible element melts instantly due to heat, cutting off the circuit and protecting the circuit or equipment. Existing fuses have mounting holes or grooves on both ends of the mounting plate on the base. The fuse base is selected based on the installation environment, but a single mounting plate can only be used in different installation environments, and the mounting plate cannot be adjusted, making it inflexible and uncommon. To address these issues, publication number CN201721685050.3 discloses a novel fuse, including a fusible element with a mounting base on both sides. A mounting plate is mounted on each mounting base. Screws pass through the mounting plate and mounting base, fixing them to the fusible element. The shape of the mounting plate is not fixed; it can be L-shaped, I-shaped, etc. The shape of the auxiliary plate is also not fixed; it can be flat, cylindrical, etc. This design makes the fuse more flexible and versatile.

[0004] However, the aforementioned fuses still have the following problems: Most existing fuses use a non-visible, enclosed structure, requiring external instruments or disassembly after power failure to check the fuse's condition, resulting in low maintenance efficiency and high maintenance costs. Especially in complex electrical systems, fault location is difficult, and it is even harder to quickly identify the fuse's location and status at night or in dim lighting. Furthermore, most existing fuses use an integrated encapsulated structure, requiring replacement of the entire fuse after the fusible element fails, leading to resource waste. While some existing fuses have indicator functions, these typically only provide mechanical indication of the fusible element's melting, lacking sufficient temperature response sensitivity to alert to abnormal temperatures and lacking nighttime visibility, making it difficult to meet the needs of efficient operation and maintenance. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a fuse structure that provides real-time status indication, is easy to maintain, and has high reliability. Utility Model Content

[0009] As a further improvement, both the surface of the thermochromic component and the surface of the fluorescent thermochromic component are provided with a transparent heat insulation layer; the transparent heat insulation layer is used to isolate the influence of external heat.

[0010] As a further improvement, the thickness of the transparent heat insulation layer is 0.1mm-2mm.

[0011] As a further improvement, each of the annular grooves is also provided with a through hole, which extends into the tube body; both the temperature-changing component and the fluorescence temperature-changing component are also provided with a contact part, which is respectively disposed in the through hole and contacts the tube body.

[0012] As a further improvement, heat dissipation fins are provided on the outer surfaces of both ends of the tube.

[0013] As a further improvement, the detachable positioning connection structure includes a positioning buckle structure and a positioning slot structure.

In addition, the temperature-changing color indication function makes it easy for staff to quickly know the location of the fuse body 1, improving the search efficiency in dim environments and facilitating maintenance and replacement.

[0030] Both the surface of the temperature-changing component 60 and the surface of the fluorescent temperature-changing component 61 are provided with a transparent heat-insulating layer 7. The transparent heat-insulating layer 7 is used to isolate the influence of external heat on the monitoring of the temperature-changing component 60 and the fluorescent temperature-changing component 61, ensuring the stability of the monitoring. The thickness of the transparent heat-insulating layer 7 is 0.1mm-2mm. The transparent heat-insulating layer 7 is used to prevent the influence of external heat. Each of the annular grooves 20 is also provided with a through hole, which extends into the tube body 2. Both the temperature-changing component 60 and the fluorescent temperature-changing component 61 are also provided with a contact portion, which is respectively disposed in the through hole and contacts the inside of the tube body 2.

[0033] Each of the fixing bases 4 is provided with an elastic clip 40. The molten material 3 is disposed between two elastic clips 40 and is in contact with the elastic clips 40 respectively.

Each support leg 41 is provided with a slot 410. The slot 410 is used for the insertion of screws and electrical connection after locking.

[0034] This invention employs a dual-indication component consisting of a temperature-changing adhesive assembly and a fluorescent color-changing adhesive assembly. This transforms internal temperature changes in the fuse body into visual signals. During the day, the color change of the temperature-changing adhesive assembly visually indicates overload or fuse failure status. At night, the fluorescent properties of the temperature-changing adhesive assembly enable rapid location identification, significantly improving the efficiency of identifying faulty fuses and shortening maintenance time. A transparent heat insulation layer isolates the temperature-changing and fluorescent color-changing adhesive assemblies from external heat interference. The contact portion inside the through-hole directly contacts the inside of the tube, enhancing the sensitivity and accuracy of internal temperature conduction and ensuring the reliability of status indication. A detachable positioning connection structure allows for quick assembly and disassembly between the tube body and the mounting base, improving assembly efficiency.
