Thermal Switch Details TRIZ Cases
- Bi-Metal Thermal Breaker Disconnect Switch
Integrated bi-metal thermal conductive elements retract from terminals to interrupt power, eliminating bulky breakers and reducing device complexity.
- Fusible Substrate with Fracture-Based Overcurrent Protection
A fuse element uses a mismatched thermal expansion substrate to fracture under overcurrent, creating a large gap between contacts.
- Thermal Switch Bimetallic Disc Thermal Isolation
A thermal switch uses a plunger to lift a movable contact via a bimetallic disc, isolating the actuator from current-carrying components.
- Temperature-Dependent Switch with Third Bearing Area
Adding a third bearing area to the switch housing prevents tilting of the current transfer member, ensuring stable contact resistance under high currents.
- Co-Formed Terminal Heater for Circuit Interrupter Thermal Trip
A co-formed conductive device merges a terminal and heater into one bent metallic plate to generate resistance heat.
- Switch Temperature-Dependent Mechanism Damping Vibration
A damping film absorbs vibration energy from a freely inserted bimetallic snap-action disc, reducing noise and mechanical loading without complex designs.
- Flat Room Temperature Controller with Lateral Magnetic Snap
Lateral magnet placement reduces housing height below 25 mm while maintaining sufficient actuating force for reliable switching over plaster.
- Thermal Expansion Circuit Breaker Actuator Mechanism
Phase-changing matter expands when heated to drive the switch mechanism, replacing complex motors and reducing device volume.
