Definitions

  • the invention relates to a multi-contact element for a varistor.
  • Varistors provide a voltage dependent resistor in electrical circuits. Varistors are therefore used in many applications, typically to dissipate overvoltages above a certain threshold voltage so as to prevent overloading or damaging a subsequent device. Therefore, varistors are often synonymous as a surge protection device called. An example of such overvoltage is a voltage that can be caused by lightning. If such an overvoltage event occurs, the task of the varistor is to divert the current past the respective electrically downstream consumer and thus to limit the voltage at the electrical load.
  • the varistor generally has as its material a granular metal oxide, e.g. Zinc oxide and / or bismuth oxide and / or manganese oxide and / or chromium oxide and / or silicon carbide, which is introduced as a rule as a (sintered) ceramic between two planar electrodes as supply elements.
  • a granular metal oxide e.g. Zinc oxide and / or bismuth oxide and / or manganese oxide and / or chromium oxide and / or silicon carbide
  • the individual grains have a different conductivity.
  • barrier layers i. at the points of contact of the grains. It can be seen that with increasing thickness, the number of grain boundaries increases and thus the limit voltage. When a voltage is applied to the lead elements, an electric field is formed. Depending on the voltage while the barrier layers are now degraded and the resistance decreases.
  • both the current distribution and the overcoming of the barrier layers are not a uniform process, but rather local current paths are formed which come into the conducting state at different rates.
  • a temperature sensor which operates a switch when a certain temperature is exceeded.
  • temperature sensors can only be used to detect slow events. Rapid heating, as occurs, for example, when applying a high voltage, leads to a greatly delayed due to the necessary and known slow heat conduction temperature rise at the temperature sensor, so that the varistor would be destroyed as a rule. Also, the separation ability is usually limited here, i. only small currents can be switched off.
  • Such an energy input may e.g. arise because over an extended period of time an overvoltage occurs, which leads to a switching of the varistor and now the short-circuit current of the network is derived via the varistor. In this case, significant heating of the varistor occurs and there is a risk of fire. Furthermore, the varistor can be damaged so far that the varistor breaks down explosively.
  • varistors are therefore provided with an upstream fuse element.
  • the invention is based on the object to provide a contact element for a varistor, which circumvents one or more of these disadvantages.
  • the invention takes advantage of the fact that a breakdown of a varistor is usually first of all a local phenomenon, which is only then a phenomenon relating to the entire varistor.
  • the invention proposes the division of the fuse into individual fuse elements 1, 2,... N as in FIG FIG. 1 shown in parallel contact a varistor.
  • a corresponding exemplary structure is shown in FIG FIG. 1 shown.
  • a multicontact element MKE is used for a varistor VAR, wherein the multicontact element MKE has a sandwich structure.
  • the sandwich structure has in a lowermost layer US two or more contact elements KE1, KE2 for contacting the varistor VAR and in a topmost layer OS at least one common connection electrode A for contacting a consumer network to be protected.
  • a first intermediate layer ZS1 of an electrically insulating material layer is provided at least in sections.
  • an electrically insulating material layer can be used, for example, by a board material, a glass fiber mat soaked with epoxy resin, for example FR4, or else polymers, ceramics or glass.
  • the securing elements DK1, DK2 are designed as plated-through holes within the first intermediate layer ZS1. As a result, a low height is possible.
  • the fuse elements DK1, DK2 in the first intermediate layer are in direct electrical contact with the common connection electrode A.
  • Each of the fuse elements DK1, DK2 is in direct or indirect electrical contact with a subset of the contact elements KE1, KE2. That is, in the embodiment of the FIG. 2 the contact element KE1 is in direct contact with the securing element DK1 and the contact element KE2 is in direct contact with the securing element DK2.
  • the securing elements DK1, DK2 have blow-out channels AK in the first intermediate layer ZS1, so that in the event of thermal overloading of a securing element DK1, DK2 of the first intermediate layer ZS1, the affected securing element DK1 can evaporate through the blow-off channel and thus establish the electrical connection to the underlying ( Part-) varistor is interrupted. That The plasma produced in the separation case can pass via blow-off channels AK into a possibly existing surrounding extinguishing medium LM and the plasma is cooled there.
  • each contact element KE assigned exactly one securing element DK the advantageous division can also be carried out with respect to a contact element or, if for example it is not possible to achieve a desired nominal value with a securing element, this by a parallel connection of several m fuse elements a 1 , b 1 , ..., m 1 Representing a first fuse element 1, a parallel connection of a plurality of fuse elements a 2 , b 2 , ..., m 2 representative of a second fuse element 2, etc. to achieve, as in FIG. 3 compared to FIG. 1 is clarified.
  • Each of the fuse elements DK1, DK2, DK3, DK4 is in direct or indirect electrical contact with a subset of the contact elements KE1, KE2. That is, in the embodiment of the FIG. 4 the contact element KE1 is in direct contact with the security elements DK1 1 and DK1 2 , while the contact element KE2 is in direct contact with the security elements DK2 1 and DK2 2 .
  • a second intermediate layer ZS2 is provided from an electrically insulating material layer.
  • an electrically insulating material layer can, for example, in turn be used by a circuit board material, a glass fiber mat impregnated with epoxy resin, for example FR4, or else polymers, ceramics or glass. Particularly advantageous here, in addition to individual material layers and combination products such as multi-layer boards or the like can be used.
  • fuse elements DK3, DK4 which are designed so that they can carry a specified surge current, wherein the specified surge current per fuse element is less than the specified surge current of the varistor VAR. That Although the nominal value of the individual fuse elements is small, the necessary separation capacity can be provided by the parallel connection of the fuse elements, while at the same time ensuring that due to the low nominal value of the individual fuse elements a quick shutdown in the local fault current event and thus in total global fault current case is made available.
  • the securing elements DK3, DK4 are designed as plated-through holes within the second intermediate layer ZS2. As a result, a low height is possible.

  • the securing elements DK3, DK4 have blow-out channels AK in the second intermediate layer ZS2, so that in the event of thermal overloading of a securing element DK3, DK4 of the second intermediate layer ZS2, the affected securing element DK3, DK4 can evaporate through the blow-off channel and thus establish the electrical connection to the underlying (part) varistor is interrupted. That The plasma produced in the separation case can pass via blow-off channels AK into a possibly existing surrounding extinguishing medium LM and the plasma is cooled there.
