(Operation) In the refrigerator with the overvoltage protection device of the present invention, the relay operates when the power supply voltage of the refrigerator exceeds the rated voltage by a predetermined range or more, and thus the power supply circuit of the refrigerator is cut off by opening the contact. Then, when the power supply voltage returns to the rated voltage after the relay operates due to a temporary change in the power supply voltage, the relay usually has a hysteresis characteristic between the operating voltage and the return voltage, and therefore does not recover. By opening the reset switch, the relay can be restored without disconnecting the power plug of the refrigerator from the outlet.

Bus terminals 2 and 3 which are power supply circuits are connected to both terminals, and an end portion of one bus bar 2 is connected to one power supply terminal 4a of a refrigerator 4 having a rated voltage of 100V, for example. Reference numeral 5 is a full-wave rectifier circuit, the AC input terminals 5a and 5b of which are connected to the bus 2 and the bus 3, respectively, and the DC output terminals 5c and 5d.
A smoothing capacitor 6 is connected in between, and a series circuit of a variable resistor 7, a relay 8 and a normally-closed reset switch 9, which are voltage adjusting means, is connected in parallel with the smoothing capacitor 6. Relay 8 is normally closed contact 8a
This contact 8a is connected between the bus bar 3 and the other power supply terminal 4b of the refrigerator 4. Here, the relay 8 adjusts the resistance of the variable resistor 7 to adjust the resistance of the variable resistor 7, that is, the AC input terminals 5a and 5b of the full-wave rectifier circuit 5.
The voltage between them is 120 which is a predetermined range of the rated voltage of the refrigerator 4.
%, Ie, less than 120V, it does not operate, and 120%, ie, 120V or more, it operates. Also, the relay 8 has a hysteresis characteristic that, once it operates, it does not recover unless the voltage becomes lower than the rated voltage of the refrigerator 4 (for example, 90 V).

In addition, AC 100V is applied between the AC input terminals 5a and 5b of the full-wave rectifier circuit 5, and this voltage is rectified by the full-wave rectifier circuit 5 and smoothed by the smoothing capacitor 6 to generate a DC voltage proportional to 100V of the power supply voltage. The voltage is applied to the relay 8 through the variable resistor 7. Therefore,
Since the relay 8 does not operate and the contact 8a remains closed,
The refrigerator 4 continues to operate.

When a voltage within a predetermined range of the rated voltage of the refrigerator 4, for example, 120% or more, is applied to an outlet not shown, for example, if the power plug 1 is inserted into a 200V outlet of a single-phase three-wire system, the refrigerator 200V is applied between the power supply terminals 4a and 4b. At the same time, AC 200V is also applied between the AC input terminals 5a and 5b of the full-wave rectifier circuit 5.
This voltage is rectified by the full-wave rectifier circuit 5, smoothed by the smoothing capacitor 6, and a DC voltage proportional to the power supply voltage 200V is applied to the relay 8 through the variable resistor 7. Then, the relay 8 operates to open the contact 8a and open the other bus bar 3, so that the refrigerator 4 is released from an overvoltage of 200 V, and accidents such as burning due to overvoltage of various electric parts of the refrigerator 4 can be prevented.

According to the above-mentioned embodiment, when the power supply voltage becomes higher than the rated voltage of the refrigerator 4 by a predetermined range or more, the relay 8 is operated to open the contact 8a thereof, so that the bus bar 3 of the refrigerator 4 is opened.
Since the electric power is shut off, it is possible to prevent accidents such as burnout of various electric parts of the refrigerator 4. Moreover, after the relay 8 is once actuated, the relay 8 does not recover and the power of the refrigerator 4 remains shut off until the power plug 1 is unplugged from the outlet or the reset switch 9 is opened.
The cause of the overvoltage is eliminated, and the user or the like will intentionally start restarting.
