Definitions

  • the invention relates to a thermal isolator with fusible link according to the preamble of the first claim.
  • the invention is applicable everywhere, where a thermal isolator is arranged with fusible link and triggers when exceeding a certain temperature.
  • the invention is suitable for use in sanitary areas and in areas with an aggressive atmosphere. This can for example be the case in kitchens, bathrooms, gastronomic areas.
  • Thermal isolators with a fusible link are known. They are usually stressed to tensile stress. To do this, you can attach the thermal fusion solder between two tension cables and exert a certain tensile force on the thermal isolator.
  • DE 33 44 745 A1 describes a device for opening venting devices with a thermal isolator with fusible link, which is particularly suitable for use in fire-fighting equipment.
  • the thermal isolator is stressed to tensile stress and triggered in a predetermined temperature range. It consists of the multi-part body, the fusible link and the mounting options on the body, the fusible link melts when exceeding a predetermined temperature and the main body are separated by pulling force.
  • the thermal isolator is not held together by means of retaining ring, wherein the fusible link is not made of an amorphous material.
  • DE 41 31 859 A1 describes a fire protection valve with closing spring for automatic shut-off of lines, the shut-off consists of a metallic ball whose diameter with a diameter of a machined into the housing of the valve bore when closing the valve forms an easy fit and a fusible link in the opening of a cup is and when heated in a fire, the fusible link releases a barrier.
  • US 3,663,720 describes a fusing solder on a sprinkler, which melts when a certain temperature is exceeded, so that the sprinkler can be triggered.
  • DE 1 108 569 A describes a fusible link for the triggering device of fire extinguishing systems, which consist of two parts connected together by a fusible link and is turned on by means arranged at a free end of the parts eyelets in a tensioned release system.
  • the interconnected parts are parts formed in a manner in a piston-cylinder connection with a fusible link between them which holds this piston-cylinder connection together until a certain temperature is exceeded and the solder melts and triggers the device.
  • DE 35 38 374 C2 describes a trigger device for the automatic closing of two-part folding shutters with a lever mechanism in which a fusible link and a spring mechanism are arranged for triggering.
  • DD 242 462 A1 describes a device for driving and controlling actuators, as used in fire dampers. When a limit temperature is exceeded, a mechanism is triggered by melting a molten solder, the fire dampers closes. Information on the material of the fusible link can not be found in the document.
  • the known fins are usually soldered to bodies consisting of copper alloys. Copper alloys form by oxidation a so-called patina, which is known as verdigris. Due to the toxic properties of verdigris, these thermal isolators are not suitable for use in hygiene or gastronomy.
  • thermoterrelling element with fusible solder which is suitable for use in fire-extinguishing technology and is subjected to tensile stress, this triggers in a predetermined temperature range, without developing toxic properties by the formation of verdigris.
  • Fused solder is understood as meaning all materials which, after a certain temperature, change their state of aggregation as a solid, e.g. become liquid.
  • the separating member according to the invention consists of at least two main bodies connected by a retaining ring, which have at their connection point a cavity in which a fusible link is arranged.
  • This fusible link is designed to fill the cavity at the junction.
  • Cavity and fusible solder can be advantageously formed a rod or a spherical shape. Conceivable, however, are all other suitable shapes such as a cube shape or a cylindrical shape.
  • the base body has at least one rib. Several ribs are conceivable. The ribs may be cylindrical ribs. So that the main body can be fastened to the tension elements, for example ropes, it is advantageous if it has eyelets on both sides.
  • each of the interconnected main body have a flat surface to each other.
  • the retaining ring may be a metal ring, which connects the two bodies together.
  • the retaining ring forms with the basic bodies a clearance fit, so that the tensile forces act on the fusible link in the cavity and the bodies are not pressed together by the retaining ring.
  • the main body consists of a not connected to the fusible link and stainless material. These may be, for example, stainless steel, ceramics or metals with chrome-plated or nickel-plated surfaces.
  • the solution according to the invention has the advantage that, in an aggressive atmosphere and in hygiene areas, no substances with toxic properties are formed.
  • the figure shows the thermal isolator according to the invention in a schematic representation in partial section, which consists of two ribbed bodies 1, which have the same geometry.
  • a cavity 2 which is formed by the basic bodies, a geometrically determined amorphous piece, the fusible link 3, inserted, which melts at a predetermined temperature and can not be soldered to the base body 1 ..
  • the fusible link 3 liquid.
  • Both base body 1 are held together by the retaining ring 4, which forms a clearance fit with the base body 1.
  • a displacement of the main body against each other is prevented by the intervening fusible link 3.
  • the bodies are provided at both ends with eyelets 5, where tensile stresses on the fusible link 3 are applied via cables.
  • ribs 6 are arranged on the main body 1 for heat absorption.
  • the melting solder 3 melts and the base bodies 1 are separated from one another by the tensile stress, by pulling them through the retaining ring 4.
