Abstract
Description
1 TARIFF SURGE PROTECTION DEVICE WITH A CLAW-TYPE MOUNTING STRUCTURE. MECHANISM Technical Area 5 The invention facilitates and speeds up the installation of surge protection devices (SPDs). It relates to a mounting mechanism with a claw-like structure that offers this possibility. State of the Art 10 Surge protection devices (SPDs) protect electrical systems from sudden and excessive voltage surges. These devices are developed to provide protection against impacts. These devices, in particular... lightning strikes, switching operations, system failures, or grid malfunctions They activate in situations such as voltage fluctuations, protecting the electrical system they are connected to. It prevents damage to the equipment. It transmits the overvoltage surge to the ground line. by directing it, it reduces the tension in the system to a safe level, increasing human safety. and extends the lifespan of the equipment. In the known state of the art, commonly used surge protection devices (SPDs) number 20 It features mounting holes with screws that ensure a secure connection for assembly. In this type of assembly, the electrical connection points of the device are secured. Various fasteners (screws, washers, nuts, etc.) are used to secure them. Especially in DIN rail or panel type mountings, these connections must be secure to ensure the safety of the device. and is important in terms of working reliably. However, the 25 connected with screws... The screws and similar fasteners used during SPD installation create additional costs. This prolongs the assembly process and increases labor requirements. Furthermore, the procurement of these parts... Operational processes such as stocking and proper placement during assembly, production and increases maintenance costs. In addition, over time or due to external factors Due to this, loosening occurs in the screw connections. As a result of this loosening, the SPD 30 The electrical connection of the device may weaken, and a loss of contact may occur. This situation This prevents the device from functioning correctly, leading to safety risks. In particular... connections after interventions in vibrating environments or during maintenance Not being tight enough negatively affects the device's performance and reliability. 2 To overcome the aforementioned disadvantages inherent in the known state of the art. and a safer, faster, more economical and sustainable way for surge protection devices (SPDs). New, easy-to-assemble mechanisms need to be developed. Brief Description of the Invention 5 The present invention eliminates the aforementioned disadvantages and the related technical surge protection devices (SPDs) have been developed to provide new advantages in the field. A mounting system with a clip-on structure that offers easier and faster assembly during installation. It is related to the mechanism. 10 The invention relates to screws and other components commonly used in the assembly of SPDs in existing systems. The long assembly time caused by the fasteners, additional labor, and the fasteners themselves... procurement and use, increased total system cost, and challenging maintenance processes. By solving the problem of connections loosening over time, the assembly process is made easier. 15 and is being accelerated. The invention reduces the time required by traditional screw assembly methods. eliminates disadvantages such as loss, loosening of connections, and additional fastener costs. By removing it, it offers a more practical and economical assembly solution. The assembly mechanism described in the invention does not require any screws, washers or similar fasteners during assembly. 20 It does not require a separate component. The surge protection devices are integrated into its housing. Thanks to its claw-like structure, the mechanism is locked in place with a single movement. This This situation saves time during the assembly process and also ensures a more accurate installation. This makes it possible to carry it out safely. The total cost in production and assembly processes with the assembly mechanism that is the subject of the invention. It is being reduced. The use of a clawed structure reduces the production and purchase of fasteners such as screws. It eliminates the costs incurred during the procurement and assembly phases. At the same time, This reduces the need for maintenance caused by connections loosening over time, and in the long term... It offers a more sustainable use. 30 Explanation of the Figures 3 The applications of the invention, briefly summarized above and discussed in more detail below, are as follows: This can be understood by referring to the example applications depicted in the attached drawings.
