[0006] Furthermore, the fuse device also includes a fiberglass rod, which is fixed within the receiving space, and the fuse wire is spirally wound around the outer periphery of the fiberglass rod.
[0007] Furthermore, there are two electrode needles, one end of each electrode needle penetrates the plastic base and extends towards the fuse to form an electrode sleeve, and the two electrode sleeves are welded to the left and right ends of the fuse respectively.
[0008] Furthermore, the flame-retardant materials are mica tubes and silicone. The mica tubes are sleeved in the middle section of the fuse, and the left and right end faces of the mica tubes respectively abut against and press against the two electrode sleeves.

[0009] Furthermore, the flame-retardant materials are mica tubes and epoxy resin. The mica tubes are sleeved in the middle section of the fuse, and the left and right end faces of the mica tubes respectively abut against and squeeze the two electrode sleeves. Epoxy resin fills the left and right sides of the containment space and wraps the fuses and electrode sleeves at both ends.
[0010] Furthermore, the flame retardant material is silicone, which is uniformly coated on the surface of the molten wire.
[0011] Furthermore, the flame retardant material is epoxy resin, which is uniformly coated on the surface of the fused wire.

[0027] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0028] According to one embodiment of the present invention, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, a high-security fuse device includes: A ceramic top cover 1 is detachably connected to a plastic base 2. A receiving space is reserved between the ceramic top cover 1 and the plastic base 2. A fuse 3 is embedded in the receiving space. The surface of the fuse 3 is covered with and / or wrapped with flame-retardant material. Electrode needle 6, which is connected to fuse 3.
[0029] In this embodiment, during normal circuit operation, current is conducted to fuse 3 via electrode needle 6. Fuse 3 ensures the smooth flow of normal current to maintain the normal continuity of the circuit. If an overload or short circuit occurs, and the current exceeds the rated current of fuse 3, fuse 3 will melt due to overheating, thereby cutting off the circuit and achieving the protection function. Simultaneously, given that the surface of fuse 3 is coated with flame-retardant material, when fuse 3 melts and generates an arc, this material can suppress the arc, preventing its uncontrolled spread and avoiding a rapid increase in the internal temperature of the fuse device due to the arc. This protects components with relatively low ignition points, such as the plastic base 2, from high-temperature damage, significantly improving the overall safety performance of the device.
[0030] In addition, the ceramic top cover 1 has excellent high temperature resistance and insulation properties. It can directly withstand the instantaneous high temperature generated when the fuse melts, and at the same time, it can effectively block the current conduction between the live parts in the housing space and the external environment, preventing the risk of electric shock caused by accidental contact by the operator.
[0031] In one possible implementation, the fuse device further includes a glass fiber rod 7, which is fixed within the receiving space, and the fuse 3 is spirally wound around the outer periphery of the glass fiber rod 7.
[0032] In this embodiment, the fiberglass rod 7 possesses excellent insulation and high-temperature resistance. When the fuse 3 is operating normally, the fiberglass rod 7 provides stable support, ensuring its stable position within the device and allowing current to flow smoothly through it. When the fuse 3 melts and generates an electric arc, the fiberglass rod 7 acts as a barrier, preventing the arc from spreading to surrounding areas. It also works with other flame-retardant materials to suppress damage to components with lower ignition points within the device, ensuring the overall safety and stability of the fuse device and extending its service life.
[0033] In one possible implementation, there are two electrode needles 6, one end of each electrode needle 6 passes through the plastic base 2 and extends toward the fuse 3 to form an electrode sleeve 8, and the two electrode sleeves 8 are respectively welded to the left and right ends of the fuse 3.
[0034] In this embodiment, the two electrode pins 6 serve as circuit connection interfaces, allowing the external circuit to be electrically connected to the fuse 3. After the electrode pins 6 penetrate the plastic base 2 and extend to form the electrode sleeve 8, they can form a tight and stable welded connection with the fuse 3. This ensures good contact during current conduction from the electrode pins 6 to the fuse 3, reducing problems such as increased contact resistance and overheating caused by loose connections, thereby guaranteeing the reliability of the entire circuit system in the connection stage.
[0035] In one possible implementation, the flame-retardant material is a mica tube 4 and silicone 5. The mica tube 4 is sleeved in the middle section of the fuse 3, and the left and right end faces of the mica tube 4 respectively abut against and press against the two electrode sleeves 8. The silicone 5 fills the left and right sides of the accommodating space and wraps the fuse 3 and electrode sleeve 8 at the left and right ends.
[0036] In this embodiment, the mica tube 4 is fitted into the middle section of the fuse 3. It possesses excellent insulation, high-temperature resistance, and reusability. When the fuse 3 is operating normally, the mica tube 4 acts as an isolation barrier, protecting the middle section from external interference. When the fuse 3 melts and generates an arc, the mica tube 4, with its inherent properties, prevents the arc from spreading from the middle to both ends. Furthermore, its left and right end faces press against and compress the two electrode sleeves 8, helping to limit the arc's spread in that area. Silicone 5 fills the left and right sides of the accommodating space and wraps around the corresponding fuse 3 and electrode sleeves 8. When an arc occurs, the silicone 5, with its excellent flame-retardant properties, quickly isolates oxygen, preventing the arc from fully contacting the surrounding air, inhibiting the continued burning and spread of the arc, and reducing the impact of the heat generated by the arc on surrounding components with lower ignition points, such as the plastic base 2. This ensures the safe and stable operation of the device and guarantees that all components can operate normally in a relatively suitable environment.
[0037] In one possible implementation, the flame-retardant material is a mica tube 4 and epoxy resin. The mica tube 4 is sleeved on the middle section of the fuse 3, and the left and right end faces of the mica tube 4 respectively abut against and press against the two electrode sleeves 8. The epoxy resin fills the left and right sides of the accommodating space and wraps the fuse 3 and electrode sleeve 8 at both ends.
[0038] In this embodiment, the mica tube 4 is fitted into the middle section of the fuse 3. It possesses excellent insulation, high-temperature resistance, and reusability, ensuring the stability and safety of the middle section of the fuse 3 under normal conditions. When the fuse 3 melts and generates an arc, the mica tube 4, relying on its insulation and high-temperature resistance, prevents the arc from spreading from the center to the periphery. Furthermore, its contact structure with the electrode sleeve 8 helps limit the arc's expansion in that area. After multiple instances of the fuse 3 melting and generating arcs, the mica tube 4 can still maintain its original performance and continue to be used, reducing costs and improving efficiency for long-term device use. Epoxy resin fills the left and right sides of the containment space and wraps the corresponding positions of the fuse 3 and electrode sleeve 8. Once the fuse 3 melts and an arc occurs, the epoxy resin, with its high flame retardancy, effectively limits the further development of the arc, controlling it within a small area and preventing large-area high-temperature damage to the entire fuse device, especially to components with low ignition points such as the plastic base 2. Moreover, epoxy resin has high mechanical strength after curing, which can fix and protect the fuse 3 and electrode sleeve 8. Even if it is subjected to external impact or vibration during daily use, the connection and relative position of the fuse 3 and electrode sleeve 8 can remain stable, ensuring that the fuse device operates stably in the circuit and ensuring circuit safety.
[0039] In one possible implementation, the flame retardant material is silicone 5, which is uniformly coated on the surface of the fuse 3.
[0040] In this embodiment, silicone 5 is uniformly coated on the surface of fuse 3 to form a protective film. When fuse 3 melts due to overload or short circuit and generates an arc, the silicone 5 film can make contact with the arc first. With its flame-retardant properties, it can suppress the arc intensity and slow down the arc propagation speed, thereby reducing the impact of the high heat generated by the arc on the space around fuse 3 and low-ignition-point components in the entire fuse device, such as the plastic base 2. This ensures that all components of the device can continue to work in a relatively safe environment and maintain the stability of the circuit system.
[0041] In one possible implementation, the flame retardant material is epoxy resin, which is uniformly coated on the surface of the fuse 3.
[0042] In this embodiment, after epoxy resin is uniformly coated onto the surface of fuse 3, a continuous protective layer is formed. At the moment fuse 3 melts and generates an electric arc, the epoxy resin layer, with its excellent flame-retardant and insulating properties, effectively blocks the transfer of arc heat, inhibits further arc expansion, and prevents damage to surrounding components with low ignition points, such as the plastic base 2. This ensures the structural integrity of the fuse device and the normal operation of all components, allowing it to continuously and effectively perform its circuit protection function and ensuring the normal operation of the entire circuit system remains unaffected.
[0043] In one possible implementation, fastening strips 9 are provided on the left and right sides of the plastic base 2, and the left and right inner surfaces of the ceramic top cover 1 are provided with slots that are adapted to the fastening strips 9, and the fastening strips 9 are inserted into the slots.
[0044] In this embodiment, when installing the fuse device, simply align the snap-fit strip 9 of the plastic base 2 with the slot of the ceramic top cover 1 and press it gently to insert the snap-fit strip 9 into the slot, thus achieving a tight snap-fit connection between the two. The operation is simple.
[0045] In one possible implementation, a sealing ring is also provided in the slot, and the sealing ring is tightly fitted to the outer surface of the fastening strip 9.
[0046] In this embodiment, the sealing ring further enhances the sealing performance between the ceramic top cover 1 and the plastic base 2. When the fastening strip 9 is inserted into the slot, the sealing ring tightly adheres to the outer surface of the fastening strip 9, effectively preventing external moisture, dust, and other impurities from entering the device and avoiding adverse effects such as corrosion and short circuits on internal components such as the fuse 3 and electrode needle 6.
[0047] In one possible implementation, the electrode needle 6 is a copper electrode needle.
[0048] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.
