Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electrical distribution box technology, and in particular to a novel fire extinguishing device for rail-mounted electrical distribution boxes. Background Technology

[0002] Distribution boxes are very common electrical products, used in both homes and public places. They are mainly used to assemble electrical components such as circuit breakers and electrical switches, and their market is extremely broad. In existing distribution box structures, there are generally two components: the distribution box body and the guide rails. The distribution box body is embedded in the wall, and the guide rails are fixed inside the distribution box body. The electrical components are then fixed to the guide rails.

[0003] Currently, fire extinguishing devices used in rail-mounted distribution boxes on the market usually adopt a similar shape to general rail-mounted circuit breakers. For example, the rail-mounted intelligent fire extinguishing module disclosed in CN202121669882.2 is fixed at one end and has a spring movement mechanism at the other end. During installation, the distribution box panel needs to be removed and the module is then inserted into the rail.

[0020] Optionally, the ends of the two unlocking rods are hook-shaped and connected to the fixing post at the bottom of the buckle.

[0021] The above solution uses a hook-shaped end to unlock the rod, which facilitates clamping and installation at the bottom of the locking post.

[0022] Optionally, the left and right outer shells are provided with spring grooves on their respective inner sides, and the outer side of the tension spring is installed inside the spring groove.

[0023] The above solution facilitates the installation of the pull ring.

[0024] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0025] This utility model, by incorporating components such as an unlocking rod, spring groove, spring hook, lever fulcrum, and sensor wire hole, automatically activates via a temperature sensing wire when an open flame occurs inside the distribution box or the internal temperature reaches 170℃±20℃, releasing fire extinguishing gas.
