Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lightning protection equipment technology, and in particular to a lightning protection device with a remote monitoring interface. Background Technology

[0002] Lightning protectors are an indispensable key component in modern electrical and electronic systems, used to protect equipment from transient surges caused by lightning strikes or operational overvoltages.

[0003] With the improvement of automation and intelligence, many new surge protectors have integrated remote monitoring interfaces to achieve real-time monitoring and early warning of their operating status. These interfaces can transmit status signals such as deterioration, failure, or tripping of the protector to the monitoring center, greatly facilitating operation and maintenance management.

[0004] However, existing surge protectors, regardless of whether they have remote monitoring capabilities, generally have shortcomings in their physical installation structure. Currently, surge protectors mainly rely on standard DIN rail mounting or bolt fixing.

[0005] While rail-mounted structures are relatively easy to install, their locking mechanism is often not secure enough. In environments with mechanical vibration, the protector can easily loosen or even fall off. Bolt fixing, while providing a secure hold, is extremely cumbersome to install, especially in confined spaces like distribution cabinets. Workers must use tools to loosen or tighten each bolt individually, which is inconvenient, time-consuming, and labor-intensive, severely impacting installation and maintenance efficiency.

[0006] Therefore, this utility model proposes a surge protector with a remote monitoring interface to address the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of the problems of cumbersome installation process, time-consuming and labor-intensive installation and maintenance efficiency of existing lightning protection devices, this utility model aims to provide a lightning protection device with an improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems.

[0008] This utility model provides a lightning protection device, including a lightning protection device and an installation mechanism disposed on the rear side of the lightning protection device; the installation mechanism includes a fixing block fixedly connected to the lightning protection device, a sliding plate slidably connected to the fixing block, and a connecting block for pre-fixing in the installation position.

[0009] The connecting block has a slot inside.

[0010] Furthermore, the structure of the sliding plate is adapted to the connecting block, and it is combined with the slot inside the connecting block by a snap-fit ​​method to achieve quick fixation of the lightning protection device.

[0011] Preferably, a limiting block is fixedly connected to the outer side of the sliding plate, and the limiting block is used to engage with the slot.

[0012] Preferably, a spring is elastically connected between the fixed block and the sliding plate.

[0013] Preferably, the surge protector further includes a protective component, which is sleeved on the outside of the surge protector and includes at least two protective shells.

[0014] Preferably, a fixing plate is fixedly connected to the top of one of the protective shells, and an adjusting plate is slidably connected to the fixing plate.

[0015] Preferably, a spring is elastically connected between the fixed plate and the adjusting plate.

[0016] Preferably, a second limiting block is fixedly connected to the top of another of the protective shells.

[0017] Preferably, the second limiting block has a limiting groove inside.

[0018] Preferably, the adjusting plate is adapted to and snapped into the limiting groove.

[0019] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. This utility model, by setting up an installation mechanism, utilizes a sliding plate to compress a spring under external force, which in turn drives a limiting block to retract. When the sliding plate enters the connecting block, the spring resets and pushes the limiting block into the slot of the connecting block. This solves the problem of cumbersome, time-consuming, and labor-intensive installation of existing lightning protection devices, achieving the technical effects of rapid installation, firm fixation, and improved installation efficiency.

[0021] 2. This utility model, by setting up a protective component, utilizes the adjustment plate on one protective shell to slide and engage with the limiting groove inside the limiting block two of another protective shell under the action of spring two. This solves the problems of inconvenient connection between existing protective shells, loose structure, and poor protective effect, and achieves the technical effect of enabling multiple protective shells to be quickly spliced, tightly connected, and forming an overall protective structure.

[0022] 3. This utility model solves the problem of inconvenient operation in both installation and enclosure protection of existing devices by combining a spring-clip type installation mechanism and a spring-interlock type protection component. It achieves the technical effect of ingenious overall structural design, simple operation, and installation and enclosure assembly without the need for additional tools. Attached Figure Description

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0032] Example: Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a lightning protection device, which aims to solve the problems of cumbersome installation and operation, inconvenient fixing, and difficulty in quickly and firmly splicing protective shells to achieve overall protection in the existing technology.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the device includes a surge protector 1, an installation mechanism 2, and a protection component 3. The installation mechanism 2 is located on the rear side of the surge protector 1 for quick installation. The protection component 3 is fitted onto the outside of the surge protector 1 for protection.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The specific structure of the installation mechanism 2 includes a fixed block 21, a sliding plate 22, a limiting block 23, a spring 24, and a connecting block 25. The fixed block 21 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the lightning protection device 1. The sliding plate 22 is slidably connected to the fixed block 21. The spring 24 is elastically connected between the fixed block 21 and the sliding plate 22. The limiting block 23 is fixedly connected to the outside of the sliding plate 22. The connecting block 25 is used to pre-fix it in the installation position. The connecting block 25 has a slot 26 inside. During installation, the sliding plate 22 is pressed inward and compresses the spring 24. Under the elastic reset action of the spring 24, the sliding plate 22 drives the limiting block 23 to engage inside the slot 26, realizing quick installation.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The protection component 3 is sleeved on the outside of the lightning protection device 1. The protection component 3 includes at least two protective shells 31. A fixed plate 32 is fixedly connected to the top of one protective shell 31, and an adjusting plate 34 is slidably connected to the fixed plate 32. A spring 33 is elastically connected between the fixed plate 32 and the adjusting plate 34. A limiting block 35 is fixedly connected to the top of the other protective shell 31. A limiting groove 36 is opened inside the limiting block 35. When the two protective shells 31 are spliced, the adjusting plate 34 slides into the limiting block 35 and bounces upward under the elastic force of the spring 33, adapting and locking into the limiting groove 36, thereby realizing the quick connection and fixation between the two protective shells 31.

[0036] As a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 A limiting block 23 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the sliding plate 22. The structure of the limiting block 23 is adapted to the inside of the slot 26. A spring 24 is elastically connected between the fixing block 21 and the sliding plate 22.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 A fixing plate 32 is fixedly connected to the top of the protective shell 31, and an adjusting plate 34 is slidably connected to the fixing plate 32 to achieve the connection action. A second spring 33 is elastically connected between the fixing plate 32 and the adjusting plate 34. A second limiting block 35 is fixedly connected to the top of the other protective shell 31. A limiting groove 36 is opened inside the limiting block 35, and the structure of the adjusting plate 34 is adapted to and snapped into the limiting groove 36.

[0038] The implementation principle of this application embodiment is as follows: When the staff needs to install the surge protector 1, the connecting block 25 can be fixed in the designated position first. Then, the sliding plate 22 connected to the rear side of the surge protector 1 is pressed into the fixed block 21. The outer side of the sliding plate 22 is provided with a limiting block 23. The limiting block 23 is moved inward by the sliding plate 22. Then, the sliding plate 22 that has come together is slid into the connected block 25 after installation. Then, the sliding plate 22 can be released, and the sliding plate 22 will be popped outward by the inner spring 24, so that the sliding plate 22 moves the limiting block 23. The limiting block 23 abuts against the slot 26 opened inside the connected block 25. At this time, the surge protector 1 can be quickly installed by the installation mechanism 2.

[0039] Before installing the surge protector 1, the protective shell 31 can be placed on the outside of the surge protector 1. At this time, the adjusting plate 34 is slid into the limiting block 35 connected to the top of the other protective shell 31 by the fixing plate 32 at the top of the protective shell 31. The adjusting plate 34 will be pressed downward by the limiting block 35. The limiting block 35 has a limiting groove 36 inside. When the adjusting plate 34 slides to the outside of the limiting groove 36, it will be pushed upward by the compressed spring 33, so that the adjusting plate 34 is pressed against the inside of the limiting groove 36, thereby achieving the connection effect of the two protective shells 31. At this time, the protection component 3 can be used to achieve the protection effect of the surge protector 1.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
