Surge protector
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of electronic and electrical equipment, in particular to a surge protection device.
Background
The surge protector is an electronic device for providing safety protection for various electronic equipment, instruments and meters and communication lines.
When the surge protector meets lightning current exceeding the tolerance limit of the overvoltage protection device or system overvoltage occurs to cause static conduction of the overvoltage protection device so that the system overcurrent flows, solder of a low-temperature welding point between a metal elastic sheet of an internal tripping device and a pin of the overvoltage protection device reaches a softened or molten state, the metal elastic sheet of the tripping mechanism part is separated from the pin of the overvoltage protection element and the spacing distance is enlarged, a sliding plate of the tripping mechanism part simultaneously pushes forwards to separate the metal elastic sheet and the pin of the overvoltage protection element for electrical isolation and arc extinction, the function of isolating the failed surge protector from the system is achieved, and the use safety of equipment is improved.
However, when the lightning current flows, the overvoltage protection device does not reach its withstand limit or the margin is still large, the tripping device will operate in advance due to the excessive lightning current discharge stress, so that the life or performance of the surge protector is reduced, and unnecessary loss is caused; meanwhile, the overvoltage of the system which often occurs leads to the static conduction of the overvoltage protection device, a large amount of system overcurrent flows through the overvoltage protection device, the breakdown phenomenon of the overvoltage protection device occurs in a short time, if the tripping device generates heat for a long time due to the fact that the heat capacity of a welding table is too large, the overvoltage protection device can raise the temperature of a low-temperature welding point on the welding table to the temperature that low-temperature soldering tin can soften or melt, the tripping device is enabled to act, before the tripping device acts, the insulation part of the tripping device is already broken down by the system current which flows through the overvoltage protection device after breakdown, the tripping device is disabled, the surge protector cannot be effectively separated from the system, and the fire burning phenomenon occurs.
Therefore, how to reduce the problem that when the tripping device needs to operate quickly and effectively when the overvoltage protection device fails due to the fact that the tripping mechanism cannot bear normal lightning discharge stress under the condition that the overvoltage protection device is intact, the surge protector is ignited and burns because the tripping device cannot operate quickly due to the problem that the temperature of the low-temperature welding spot of the tripping device is too slow, and technical problems to be solved by technical personnel in the field are urgently needed.

EXAMPLE III
As shown in fig. 6, in a third embodiment of the present invention, the structures of the surge protection device in this embodiment are similar to those of the surge protection device in the second embodiment, and the same parts are not repeated and only differences are introduced.
