Description
본 발명은 자동차에 사용되는 휴즈의 단락 확인장치에 관한 것으로, 상세하게는 광섬유를 이용하여 광섬유에서 발산되는 빛에 의해 휴즈의 단락 여부를 확인하는 장치에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to an apparatus for checking a short circuit of a fuse used in an automobile, and more particularly, to an apparatus for checking a short circuit of a fuse by light emitted from an optical fiber using an optical fiber.
자동차에는 전조등이나 비상등, 경적기, 와이퍼 등 자동차의 주행을 위하여설치되는 각종 기기와 자동차의 상태를 표시하는 안내표시등이 과전압에 의해 오동작되는 것을 방지하기 위하여 휴즈박스를 설치하여 사용하고 있다. 이러한 용도로 사용되는 휴즈박스는 배터리 등의 주전원과 해당기기 사이에 연결되는 전원선을 내측에 집약시킴과 동시에 적정형태의 터미널을 각각의 전원선에 개별적으로 접속시킨 상태에서 박스 내에 형성된 각 터미널 체결공에 삽입 설치하고, 터미널의 접속부에는 통상의 휴즈를 접속 설치하여 해당 전원선으로 과전압이 흐르게 되면 휴즈가 단락되도록 함으로써 과전압에 의한 각종 부속기기 등의 고장을 방지하도록 하고 있다.In automobiles, fuse boxes are installed to prevent malfunctions caused by overvoltage of various devices installed for driving the vehicle, such as headlights, emergency lights, horns, and wipers, and guide lights indicating the state of the vehicle. The fuse box used for this purpose collects the power line connected between the main power supply such as a battery and the corresponding equipment inside and connects each terminal formed in the box with the proper type terminal connected to each power line individually. A common fuse is inserted into the ball and the terminal is connected to a normal fuse so that a short circuit occurs when an overvoltage flows through the power supply line, thereby preventing malfunction of various accessory devices due to the overvoltage.
따라서, 운행 중에 경적기가 울리지 않거나 우천시에 와이퍼가 작동되지 않는 등의 기기 동작 불능이 발생하면, 휴즈 박스 내에 내장된 휴즈 중에서 고장난 기기와 연결된 휴즈의 단락상태를 우선적으로 확인할 필요가 있다. 이때, 휴즈의 단락상태를 확인하기 위한 여러 장치(방법)들이 공개되어 있다.Therefore, if a device does not operate, such as the horn does not sound during operation or the wiper does not operate in the rain, it is necessary to first check the short-circuit state of the fuse connected to the failed device among the fuses built in the fuse box. At this time, various devices (methods) for checking the short circuit state of the fuse are disclosed.
한국특허출원번호 10-1999-0024132는 휴즈가 과부하 등으로 인하여 단락되면 이를 감지하는 진단회로기판에 의해 감지되어 위치표시램프 등을 통해 휴즈의 단락상태를 표시하여 주는 장치를 개시하고 있다.Korean Patent Application No. 10-1999-0024132 discloses a device that detects a short circuit state of a fuse through a position display lamp and is detected by a diagnostic circuit board that detects a short circuit due to an overload.
한국특허출원번호 10-1997-0050644는 휴즈접속부에 램프를 접속하여 휴즈의 단락여부에 따라 램프가 점등 또는 소등되도록 함으로써 휴즈의 단락여부를 확인하는 장치를 개시하고 있다.Korean Patent Application No. 10-1997-0050644 discloses a device for checking whether a fuse is shorted by connecting a lamp to a fuse connecting part so that the lamp is turned on or off depending on whether the fuse is shorted.
한국특허출원번호 10-1996-0074237는 트랜지스터의 스위칭 기능을 이용하여 휴즈의 단락에 의해 트랜지스터의 베이스 단자측이 로우레벨로 되어 트랜지스터가배터리 전원을 디스플레이부와 휴즈 LED부로 스위칭함으로써 휴즈의 단락을 표시하는 장치를 개시하고 있다.In Korean Patent Application No. 10-1996-0074237, the base terminal side of the transistor becomes low level by the short circuit of the fuse using the switching function of the transistor, and the transistor displays the short circuit of the fuse by switching the battery power supply to the display section and the fuse LED section. A device is disclosed.
그런데, 한국특허출원번호 10-1996-0074237와 한국특허출원번호 10-1999-0024132는 별도의 회로가 필요하여 이 회로가 손상될 경우에는 휴즈의 단락 여부를 확인하기가 곤란하고, 한국특허출원번호 10-1997-0050644는 램프를 연결하여 사용하므로 휴즈가 단락될 정도의 과전류나 과전압이 걸리게 되면 램프도 손상될 우려가 있다.However, Korean Patent Application No. 10-1996-0074237 and Korean Patent Application No. 10-1999-0024132 require a separate circuit, and if this circuit is damaged, it is difficult to check whether a short circuit of the fuse is made. Since 10-1997-0050644 is used by connecting a lamp, the lamp may be damaged if an over current or an over voltage enough to short the fuse is applied.
본 발명은 이러한 종래 기술들의 문제점을 해결하기 위한 것으로, 별도의 전자회로를 구비하지 않고도 육안으로 쉽게 휴즈의 단락여부를 확인할 수 있는 휴즈단락확인 장치를 제공하는 것을 목적으로 한다.The present invention has been made to solve the problems of the prior arts, and an object of the present invention is to provide a fuse short confirmation device capable of easily checking whether or not a short circuit of the fuse with the naked eye without having a separate electronic circuit.

이러한 목적을 달성하기 위하여, 본 발명은 휴즈 소켓의 밑 부분에 광섬유를 설치하여 휴즈의 단락시 생기는 틈새로 새어 나오는 광섬유의 빛에 의해 휴즈의 단락 여부를 확인하는 장치를 제공한다.In order to achieve this object, the present invention provides a device for checking whether the fuse is shorted by the light of the optical fiber leaked into the gap generated during the short circuit of the fuse by installing the optical fiber in the lower portion of the fuse socket.
이하, 첨부도면을 참조하여 본 발명을 상세히 설명한다.Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
도1는 휴즈 소켓의 하부에 광섬유를 설치한 카트리지형 휴즈진단장치를 도시하고 있다. 도1에 도시된 바와같이, 카트리지형의 휴즈진단장치(11)의 휴즈(14)는 휴즈 소켓의 커넥터(13)에 꽂혀서 그 아래에 있는 전자회로기판(12)에 접속됨으로써, 전원공급원과 각종 기기 사이의 전원 연결 상태의 확인이나 과전압 등에 의한기기들의 소손 방지 등의 기능을 행한다.Fig. 1 shows a cartridge type fuse diagnosis device in which an optical fiber is installed below the fuse socket. As shown in Fig. 1, the fuse 14 of the cartridge-type fuse diagnosis device 11 is plugged into the connector 13 of the fuse socket and connected to the electronic circuit board 12 below, thereby providing a power source and various Functions such as checking the power supply connection between devices and preventing damage to the devices due to overvoltage, etc.
여기서, 휴즈(14)가 삽입되는 소켓의 하부에 광섬유(21)가 구비되어 있다. 광섬유의 위치는 휴즈(14)의 아래 부분에 위치하며, 휴즈의 단락시 단락된 부분을 통해 광섬유에서 발하는 빛이 통과한다. 따라서, 광섬유의 위치는 광섬유에서 나오는 빛이 휴즈(14)의 단락부분을 통과하여 휴즈의 단락을 확인할 수 있는 위치는 어디든지 가능하다. 특히, 빛의 굴절 반사각을 이용하는 광섬유는 작은 관의 형태로 제작이 가능하여 설치가 용이하다. 또한, 전자회로 등의 추가적 구성 없이도 하나의 광원을 이용하여 각 휴즈 소켓에 설치할 수 있다.Here, the optical fiber 21 is provided in the lower part of the socket into which the fuse 14 is inserted. The position of the optical fiber is located at the lower portion of the fuse 14, and light emitted from the optical fiber passes through the shorted portion at the time of shorting of the fuse. Therefore, the position of the optical fiber can be anywhere where light from the optical fiber passes through the short circuit portion of the fuse 14 to check the short circuit of the fuse. In particular, the optical fiber using the refractive reflection angle of light can be manufactured in the form of a small tube is easy to install. In addition, it can be installed in each fuse socket using a single light source without additional configuration such as an electronic circuit.
도2a 및 2b는 광섬유의 빛이 통과하여 휴즈의 단락 여부가 확인되는 원리를 도시하고 있다. 도2a에 도시된 바와같이, 휴즈의 상태가 정상일 경우에는 휴즈의 아래 부분을 통과하는 광섬유의 빛이 휴즈에 막혀 검게 나타난다. 그러나, 도2b에 도시된 바와같이, 휴즈가 단락된 경우에는 휴즈의 아래 부분을 통과하는 광섬유의 빛이 휴즈의 끊어진 부분을 통과하여 밖으로 새어 나오게 된다. 이때, 휴즈를 소켓에서 일일이 꺼내지 않고도 외부에서 별도의 조명등 없이 휴즈의 단락 여부를 육안으로 쉽게 확인할 수 있다.2A and 2B illustrate the principle of checking whether a fuse is shorted by passing light of an optical fiber. As shown in Fig. 2A, when the state of the fuse is normal, the light of the optical fiber passing through the lower portion of the fuse is blocked by the fuse and appears black. However, as shown in FIG. 2B, when the fuse is shorted, light of the optical fiber passing through the lower portion of the fuse leaks out through the broken portion of the fuse. At this time, it is easy to visually check whether the fuse is short-circuited without a separate lamp from the outside without taking out the fuse from the socket.
이러한 구성 및 작용을 갖는 휴즈단락 확인장치에 의하면, 휴즈의 단락을 확인하기 위한 별도의 전자회로나 램프가 필요 없어 이들 구성요소들이 차지하는 공간의 확보 문제가 해소되고, 또한 광섬유의 굵기가 미세하게 조정될 수 있어서 공간적 문제가 해소될 수 있다.According to the fuse short confirmation device having such a configuration and action, there is no need for a separate electronic circuit or a lamp to check the short circuit of the fuse to solve the problem of securing the space occupied by these components, and also to finely adjust the thickness of the optical fiber The spatial problem can be solved.
이상에서는 본 발명을 특정의 바람직한 실시예에 대하여 도시하고 설명하였으나, 본 발명은 이러한 실시예에 한정되지 않으며, 당해 발명이 속하는 기술분야에서 통상의 지식을 가진 자가 특허청구범위에서 청구하는 본 발명의 기술적 사상을 벗어나지 않는 범위내에서 실시할 수 있는 다양한 형태의 변형례들을 모두 포함한다.While the invention has been shown and described with respect to certain preferred embodiments thereof, the invention is not limited to these embodiments, and has been claimed by those of ordinary skill in the art to which the invention pertains. It includes all modifications of various forms that can be implemented without departing from the technical idea.
