In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" are to be construed broadly, e.g., as meaning either a fixed connection, a removable connection, or an integral connection; can be mechanically or electrically connected; they may be connected directly or indirectly through intervening media, or they may be interconnected between two elements. The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood in specific cases to those skilled in the art.
An overvoltage protection switch 100 according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the invention is described below with reference to fig. 1-4. The overvoltage protection switch 100 can be used for pressure appliances requiring pressure power-off protection, such as an electric pressure cooker (not shown), especially a rigid pressure cooker (i.e. the cooker body and the cover are always kept in a completely sealed state during the whole operation of the electric pressure cooker). When a normal pressure relief device, such as a pressure relief valve, of a pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, fails and an abnormal overpressure occurs (i.e., the pressure in the pressure appliance is greater than its normal pressure use range, such as 70kPa), the overpressure protection switch 100 can power off a heating device in the pressure appliance, so that the heating device stops heating, and the pressure in the pressure appliance is prevented from further increasing. In the following description of the present application, the overvoltage protection switch 100 is used in an electric pressure cooker as an example. Of course, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the over-pressure protection switch 100 may also be used in other pressure appliances, such as electric pressure cookers, etc.
As shown in fig. 1 to 4, the overvoltage protection switch 100 according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention includes a first switch terminal 1, a second switch terminal 2, a trip lever 3, a latching torsion spring 4, a switch body 7 and a sealing device 8.
The first switch terminal 1 has a first contact 11 and the second switch terminal 2 has a second contact 21, the second contact 21 being in constant contact with the first contact 11. For example, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, a first contact 11 is provided on one side (for example, the upper side in fig. 1 and 2) of the first switch terminal 1, the first contact 11 being formed to protrude upward from the upper surface of the first switch terminal 1.
A second contact 21 is provided at a free end (e.g., right end in fig. 1 and 3) of the second switch terminal 2, the second contact 21 being formed to protrude downward from a lower surface of the second switch terminal 2. Specifically, the first end (e.g., the left end in fig. 1 and 3) of the second switch terminal 2 is a fixed end, while the first end of the second switch terminal 2 is fixed, the first end of the second switch terminal 2 does not move relative to the overvoltage protection switch 100, the second end (e.g., the right end in fig. 1 and 3) of the second switch terminal 2 is a movable end, and the second end of the second switch terminal 2 is movable. The second contact 21 is disposed at the second end of the second switch terminal 2, so that the second end of the second switch terminal 2 can drive the second contact 21 to move, so that the second contact 21 contacts with the first contact 11, or separates from the first contact 11.
The first switch terminal 1 and the second switch terminal 2 are adapted to be connected (e.g. by means of wires 9) in a heating circuit (not shown in the figures) of a pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, said heating circuit comprising heating means. When the pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, is normally used, the first contact 11 and the second contact 21 are always kept in contact, the heating circuit is always conducted, and the heating device works to heat food and the like in the pressure appliance.
Alternatively, the outer surfaces of the first contact 11 and the second contact 21 may be respectively formed by an arc surface and a plane, and the plane is located at the top of the first contact 11 and the second contact 21, so that the contact area is large because the contact between the first contact 11 and the second contact 21 is a surface contact, the first contact 11 and the second contact 21 are in good contact, and the reliability of the heating circuit is ensured. Of course, the outer surfaces of the first contact 11 and the second contact 21 may be formed as spherical surfaces (not shown) that protrude outward.
The touch lever 3 is disposed adjacent to the second switch terminal 2, for example, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, and the touch lever 3 is located on the same side (for example, the lower side in fig. 1 and 3) of the second switch terminal 2 as the first switch terminal 1. The trip lever 3 is not in contact with the second switch terminal 2 under normal conditions (e.g., when the second contact 21 is in the contact position). The trip lever 3 is configured to trip the second switch terminal 2 to move the second contact 21 from a contact position (shown in fig. 1 and 2) in which it is normally in contact with the first contact 11 to an open position (shown in fig. 3 and 4) in which it is separated from the first contact 11 when the ambient pressure reaches a predetermined pressure. Here, it should be noted that when the overvoltage protection switch 100 is used in a pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker, the "ambient pressure" can be understood as the pressure in the pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker. The trip lever 3 is formed with a locking groove 31.
For example, when the pressure in a pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker reaches a predetermined pressure, the touch rod 3 contacts the second switch terminal 2 and touches the second switch terminal 2 to separate (i.e., not contact) the second contact 21 from the first contact 11, thereby disconnecting the heating circuit, deactivating the heating device, gradually reducing the pressure in the pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker, protecting the pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker, and preventing a user from being injured because the pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker does not discharge high-temperature and high-pressure gas.
Optionally, the predetermined pressure is P, P satisfying: p is more than or equal to 140kPa and less than or equal to 200 kPa. The specific value can be specifically set according to the type of the actual pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, so as to better meet the actual requirement.
The switch body 7 is formed with a communication port 71 communicating with the external environment, and for example, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, the communication port 71 may be formed at the bottom of the switch body 7. When the overvoltage protection switch 100 is used in a pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker, the "external environment" refers to the interior of the pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker. Wherein the locking fixing seat 5 is fixed in the switch body 7. Therefore, the switch body 7 capable of accommodating the first switch terminal 1, the second switch terminal 2, the touch rod 3 and the locking torsion spring 4 is arranged, and the integration of the overvoltage protection switch 100 is improved.
The sealing device 8 is arranged in the switch body 7, the touch rod 3 is connected with the sealing device 8, and the sealing device 8 is configured that when the environmental pressure applied through the communication port 71 reaches a preset pressure, the sealing device 8 drives the touch rod 3 to touch the second switch terminal 2, so that the second contact 21 moves from a contact position which is normally contacted with the first contact 11 to a disconnection position which is separated from the first contact 11. Thus, by providing the sealing means 8, the sealing means 8 can isolate the interior of the switch body 7 from the interior of a pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, so that a pressure difference exists between the interior of the switch body 7 and the interior of the pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, and thus, when the interior of the pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, is abnormally over-pressurized, the sealing means 8 can push the contact rod 3 to move upwards under the action of the pressure difference to contact the second switch terminal 2.
The first end of the locking torsion spring 4 is a fixed end, the first end of the locking torsion spring 4 is fixed, the second end 41 of the locking torsion spring 4 is a movable end, the second end 41 of the locking torsion spring 4 is movable relative to the first end, and the second end 41 of the locking torsion spring 4 is adapted to fit in the locking groove 31 to maintain the second contact 21 at the off position. Therefore, through the matching of the locking torsion spring 4 and the touch rod 3, the overvoltage protection switch 100 cannot be reset after being used once (the first contact 11 and the second contact 21 are disconnected), namely, the first contact 11 and the second contact 21 cannot be contacted again to conduct the heating circuit, so that the use safety of the pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker is improved.
The overvoltage protection switch 100 according to the embodiment of the invention has the advantages of simple structure and low cost. When the overvoltage protection switch 100 is used for a pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker, the first contact 11 and the second contact 21 are disconnected by arranging the touch rod 3 and the locking torsion spring 4, when the pressure in the pressure appliance such as the electric pressure cooker reaches a preset pressure, the heating circuit with the first switch terminal 1 and the second switch terminal 2 of the pressure appliance such as the electric pressure cooker can be disconnected, so that the power-off protection under abnormal overvoltage can be effectively realized, and the second contact 21 can be kept at the disconnected position when the second contact 21 is positioned at the disconnected position, the situation that the heating device continues to heat can not occur, and the use safety of the pressure appliance such as the electric pressure cooker is improved. In addition, by arranging the switch body 5, the first switch terminal 1, the second switch terminal 2, the touch rod 3, the locking torsion spring 4 and the sealing device 8 can be integrated in the switch body 5, so that the overvoltage protection switch 100 is an integral component, and when the overvoltage protection switch 100 is used, the overvoltage protection switch 100 can be conveniently and quickly installed on a pressure appliance 200, such as an electric pressure cooker, and the assembly efficiency is improved. By arranging the sealing device 6, the reliability of the action of the overvoltage protection switch 100 can be effectively ensured.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, a first end (e.g., an upper end in fig. 1 and 3) of the touch bar 3 is adapted to touch the second switch terminal 2, for example, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, the touch bar 3 is movable up and down relative to the second switch terminal 2, when the touch bar 3 is located at the position shown in fig. 1, the second contact 21 is always in contact with the first contact 11, and when the pressure in a pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, is abnormal, the touch bar 3 can move up and push the second switch terminal 2, so that the second contact 21 is disconnected from the first contact 11, thereby realizing power-off protection.
Wherein a locking groove 31 is formed at a side (e.g., a lower side in fig. 1 and 3) of the first end of the trip lever 3 adjacent to a center of the trip lever 3, and when the second contact point 21 is located at the contact position, the second end 41 of the locking torsion spring 4 is stopped against the outer peripheral wall of the first end of the trip lever 3 due to a torsion force of the locking torsion spring 4 itself, as shown in fig. 1 and 2; when the pressure in a pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, is abnormal, the touch rod 3 will move upwards, in the process, the second end 41 of the locking torsion spring 4 will move downwards relative to the touch rod 3 along the side wall of the touch rod 3, and due to the torsion action of the locking torsion spring 4, the second end 41 of the locking torsion spring 4 will enter the locking groove 31 and abut against the inner wall of the locking groove 31, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, at this time, due to the limiting action of the locking torsion spring 4, the touch rod 3 will not move downwards, so that the second switch terminal 2 returns to the contact position where the second contact 21 and the first contact 11 keep in contact, thereby effectively ensuring the use safety of the pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker.
Alternatively, the locking groove 31 is formed as an annular groove extending in the circumferential direction of the touch lever 3, simplifying the process of machining the touch lever 3 and facilitating the installation of the touch lever 3, thereby improving the assembly efficiency and reducing the cost. Of course, the lock groove 31 may be formed by a portion of the circumference of the trip lever 3 being recessed inward (not shown). It will be appreciated that the specific shape of the locking slot 31 can be specifically configured according to actual requirements, as long as it can be used for locking the touch lever 3 in cooperation with the locking torsion spring 4 when the second contact 21 is located at the off position.
According to some embodiments of the invention, the overvoltage protection switch 100 further comprises: a locking holder 5, wherein the above-mentioned second end 41 of the locking torsion spring 4 is supported on the locking holder 5. For example, as shown in fig. 1 to 4, the second end 41 of the locking torsion spring 4 is supported on the upper surface of the locking holder 5, thereby effectively securing the reliability of locking the touch lever 3. Wherein, locking torsional spring 4 can be installed on locking fixing base 5, and the above-mentioned first end of locking torsional spring 4 can be fixed on locking fixing base 5 this moment.
The locking fixing seat 5 is provided with a guide hole 51, the touch rod 3 is arranged in the guide hole 51, the first end of the touch rod 3 is suitable for extending out of the guide hole 51 to touch the second switch terminal 2, and the guide hole 51 has a guiding effect on the touch rod 3 so as to ensure the moving accuracy of the touch rod 3. Alternatively, the extension direction of the touch lever 3 is perpendicular to the plane of the second switch terminal 2, as shown in fig. 1, whereby the second switch terminal 2 can be touched to separate the second contact 21 from the first contact 11 better.
Further, a stop rib 32 extending outward is disposed on the outer peripheral wall of the second end of the touch rod 3, and the overvoltage protection switch 100 further includes: and an elastic restoring member 6, wherein the elastic restoring member 6 is stopped between an inner wall (for example, a top wall in fig. 1 and 3) of the guide hole 51 and the stopper rib 32, and the elastic restoring member 6 is configured to normally push the touch lever 3 in a direction away from the second switch terminal 2. For example, the elastic reset element 6 may be a spring, the spring is sleeved outside the touch rod 3, and two ends of the spring respectively abut against the top wall of the guiding hole 51 and the stopping rib 32 to normally push the touch rod 3 downward, that is, when the pressure in a pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker is less than a predetermined pressure, the touch rod 3 can be reset under the action of the spring.
Alternatively, the first switch terminal 1 and the second switch terminal 2 are provided on the locking fixing base 5. Of course, the first switch terminal 1 and the second switch terminal 2 may also be fixed on the inner wall of the switch body 7, hereinafter, or directly provided on a pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker (not shown). It is understood that the specific arrangement positions of the first switch terminal 1 and the second switch terminal 2 can be specifically arranged according to actual requirements to better meet the actual requirements.
Wherein the second end of the trip rod 3 is connected to the sealing means 8. For example, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, the sealing means 8 is formed with a mounting groove in which the second end of the trip rod 3 is adapted to be fixed. The sealing device 8 is configured such that when an ambient pressure (e.g., an internal pressure of a pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker) applied through the communication port 71 reaches a predetermined pressure, the sealing device 8 drives the touch lever 3 to touch the second switch terminal 2. The sealing means 8 is used for isolating the inside of the switch body 7 from the communication opening 71, for example, from the inside of a pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, so that there is a pressure difference between the inside of the switch body 7 and the inside of the pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, so that when the inside of the pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, is abnormally over-pressurized, the sealing means 8 can push the contact rod 3 to move upwards under the action of the pressure difference to contact the second switch terminal 2.
Alternatively, the sealing device 8 is a sealing sheet, and when the second contact point 21 is located at the contact position, the sealing device 8 bulges toward the communication opening 71 to close the communication opening 71, for example, as shown in fig. 1, the edge of the sealing sheet and the bottom for closing the communication opening 71 play a role of two-layer sealing, which effectively ensures the reliability of the action of the touch lever 3. When the second contact 21 is located at the open position, the sealing device 8 bulges out in a direction away from the communication port 71, as shown in fig. 3. In this case, the sealing device 8 may be made of a material having elasticity, so that the sealing effect of the sealing device 8 can be further improved.
Optionally, the pressure-bearing area of the sealing device 8 acted on by the ambient pressure is S, where S satisfies: 1mm2≤S≤100mm2. For example, when the overvoltage protection switch 100 is used in a pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker, S is a pressure receiving area where the pressure in the appliance body acts on the sealing device 8.
According to the overvoltage protection switch 100 provided by the embodiment of the invention, when the pressure in a pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker is between 140kPa and 200kPa, the power supply is cut off, and the overvoltage protection is realized. The principle of the overvoltage protection switch 100 is that steam in a pressure appliance such as an electric pressure cooker enters the switch body 7 through the communication port 71, when the steam pressure is greater than the elastic force of the elastic reset piece 6 such as a spring, the steam pushes the sealing device 8 open to drive the touch rod 3 to move to touch the second switch terminal 2, the second switch terminal 2 springs upwards after being stressed, so that the second contact 21 of the second switch terminal 2 moves upwards along with the second switch terminal 2 to separate the first contact 11 from the second contact 21, after the touch rod 3 moves upwards, when the touch rod 3 rises to the position where the locking groove 31 is approximately aligned with the locking torsion spring 4, the locking torsion spring 4 is clamped into the locking groove 31 under the action of self torsion force to clamp the touch rod 3, the pressure in the pressure appliance such as the electric pressure cooker drops, and the touch rod 3 cannot reset. Because the touch rod 3 can not return, the second switch terminal 2 can not return to the position where the second contact 21 contacts with the first contact 11, pressure protection can be effectively increased, the safety of a pressure device such as an electric pressure cooker is improved, and compared with the traditional mechanical pressure relief structure, the pressure device is safer and more reliable.
A pressure appliance, such as an electric pressure cooker, according to an embodiment of the second aspect of the invention comprises an overvoltage protection switch 100 according to the above-described embodiment of the first aspect of the invention.
Wherein the pressure appliance comprises an appliance body and an overvoltage protection switch 100. The overvoltage protection switch 100 is disposed on the appliance body, wherein the environmental pressure is the pressure in the appliance body, when the pressure in the appliance body reaches a predetermined pressure, the touch rod 3 moves upward to touch the second switch terminal 2, and the locking torsion spring 4 can lock the touch rod 3 to keep the second contact 21 at the off position. For example, the device body includes a pot body and a cover body, the top of the pot body is open, the cover body is arranged on the top of the pot body, wherein the overvoltage protection switch 100 is arranged on the cover body and is positioned in the center of the cover body.
