1. an execution mode
Temperature fuse based on an embodiment of the invention is described.The B of A and Fig. 1 of Fig. 1 is the schematic cross-sectional of structure for illustration of the temperature fuse based on an embodiment of the invention and action.The A of Fig. 1 represents that fusible metal alloy is by the state before fusing, and the B of Fig. 1 represents that fusible metal alloy is by the state after fusing.
An example of temperature fuse, it is such as the temperature fuse of axial wire-guiding type electronics, possess: comprise fusible metal alloy 11 and coat the fuse element 13 of special resin 12 of fusible metal alloy 11,2 lead-in wires 14 be fused to the both ends of fusible metal alloy 11 respectively, extending respectively from the both ends of fuse element 13, the insulation shell 15 of storage fuse element 13 and 2 lead-in wires 14, and the encapsulant 16 of one end of sealed insulation shell 15 and the opening of the other end.
2 lead-in wires 14 extend from one end of the insulation shell 15 by encapsulant 16 sealed open and the other end respectively.As lead-in wire 14, the conductors such as tin annealed copper wire can be used.Insulation shell 15, such as, for tubular and one end of length direction and the other end have the shell of the insulating properties of opening.As encapsulant 16, epoxy resin etc. can be used.
For an example of temperature fuse, because temperature rises, when reaching the operating temperature of fuse element 13 work, as shown in the B of Fig. 1, fusible metal alloy melting, fuse element 13 are fused, and the conductings between 2 lead-in wires 14 are blocked.Thus, block the loop etc. comprising temperature fuse, protection package is containing the electronic equipment etc. of temperature fuse.The operating temperature of an example of temperature fuse, such as, is more than 180 DEG C and less than 200 DEG C.
(fuse element)
Fuse element 13 comprises membranaceous etc. the special resin 12 of fusible metal alloy 11 and coated fusible metal alloy 11.It should be noted that, fuse element 13 also can for omitting the structure of special resin 12.
(fusible metal alloy)
Fusible metal alloy 11 is by being processed into wire thus the wire rod etc. of the temperature fuse obtained to the raw material extrusion molding or pultrusion etc. of fusible metal alloy 11.Fusible metal alloy 11 comprises bismuth (Bi), copper (Cu) and tin (Sn).In fusible metal alloy 11, such as, copper and tin form the intermetallic compound comprising these elements.Its result, heat-resistant quality rises, and can meet the characteristic as temperature fuse.Fusible metal alloy 11 also comprises the inevitable impurity except bismuth, copper and tin.It should be noted that, be other the material except bismuth, copper, tin as inevitable impurity.As other material, such as, can list can not fully prevent from being during fabrication mixed into other element, melting time the oxide etc. that produces.
(composition of fusible metal alloy)
For fusible metal alloy 11, the content of bismuth is more than 5 quality % (% by weight, same below) and below 30 quality %, and the content of copper is more than 0.1 quality % and below 5 quality %, and remainder comprises tin and inevitable impurity.It should be noted that, the content of bismuth, the content of copper are the value specified in the quality percentage of the total quality relative to bismuth, copper and tin.
Comprise copper in fusible metal alloy 11, thus significantly can reduce the deviation of the operating temperature of temperature fuse.When the content of the copper of fusible metal alloy 11 is less than above-mentioned scope, there is the homogeneity (easy segregation) being difficult to keep composition, be difficult to the tendency of the reproducibility of operating temperature when obtaining volume production.When the content of the copper of fusible metal alloy 11 is more than above-mentioned scope, fusible metal alloy is carried out adding man-hour by extrusion molding etc., become fragile, the problem such as broken at a touch when extruding.The content of the copper of fusible metal alloy 11 is preferably more than 0.5 quality % and below 4 quality %.By the content of copper is set to more than 0.5 quality %, thus more easily keep the homogeneity (more not easily segregation) of composition.By the content of copper is set to below 4 quality %, thus become can extrusion molding etc., can improve the processability of fusible metal alloy further.Be more preferably more than 0.5 quality % and below 2 quality %.By the content of copper is set to below 2 quality %, thus become can easily extrusion molding etc., can improve the processability of fusible metal alloy further.
For the content of the bismuth of fusible metal alloy 11, from the view point of the operating temperature of the higher temperatures adjusted to as object of the present invention (such as, 180 DEG C ~ 200 DEG C), regulation is to above-mentioned scope.The content of the bismuth of fusible metal alloy 11 is preferably more than 20 quality % and below 30 quality %.By the content of bismuth is set to more than 20 quality %, thus operating temperature can be adjusted to not exceed 200 DEG C.The content of the bismuth of fusible metal alloy 11 is more preferably more than 20 quality % and below 25 quality %.By the content of bismuth is set to below 25 quality %, thus it is high to give mechanical strength, and fraction defective during production reduces further, and in addition, process when fusible metal alloy 11 being assembled to machine becomes easy.
(preparation method of fusible metal alloy)
Fusible metal alloy 11 by using the common melting method in the technical field of this technology, thus can be prepared.Such as, take the tin of the weight corresponding with the composition of the expectation of fusible metal alloy 11, bismuth and copper and put in the container adding and hanker and make its melting etc., thus fusible metal alloy 11 can be prepared.Now, partly alloy can be used.Even if these metals use arbitrary fusion technology in the past all can melting.When preparing fusible metal alloy 11, be heated to till these metals all become liquid.
(special resin)
As special resin 12, such as, the resin etc. rosin etc. being set to main component can be used.
