Definitions

  • This invention relates to the protection of electrical circuit means against potentially damaging changes in operating conditions. These will usually be increases in current, but protection may also be required in certain cases against voltage changes or changes in temperature.
  • fuses In household appliances, protection against excessive currents is conventionally provided by fuses. These have the advantages of relatively low cost. Moreover, a fuse has the advantage as a safety device that, when blown, it offers guaranteed and tamper proof isolation. These features can only be provided in mechanical or electromagnetic current isolators with special precautions. With normal fuses, however, there will be uncertainty as to the precise current value which will blow the fuse. This may not be a practical disadvantage when the aim is to protect against the effects of a short circuit. In these circumstances, the current through the fuse will rise rapidly to a level which is considerably in excess of the normal working current and the exact current level at which the fuse blows is therefore not critical. In certain applications, however, this uncertainty can be a substantial disadvantage.
  • This invention makes use of well known PTC devices having the property that the resistance of the device increases sharply at a threshold temperature.
  • a method for protecting electrical circuit means against currents in excess of a given current threshold by the connection in series of a normally conducting isolator having a fusible element and adapted to break electrical continuity on fusing thereof, the current being passed through a PTC device disposed in thermal communication with said element and being arranged so that above the current threshold, the power output of the PTC device exceeds the rate of heat dissipation therefrom and increases rapidly beyond the level required to fuse said element.
  • the cold resistance of the PTC device is very small compared with the resistance of the electrical circuit means to be protected so that, immediately above the current threshold, the power output of the PTC device is generally proportional to its resistance.
  • a PTC device can be selected to have a very rapid increase in resistance (typically several orders of magnitude) over a selected short temperature range.
  • the power output of the PTC device can thus be arranged to increase very rapidly as the current exceeds the predetermined threshold, hence ensuring fusing of the element even if the melting point is significantly above the nominal figure.
  • a device for protecting electrical circuit means against currents in excess of a given current threshold comprising an isolator having a fusible element and adapted to break electrical continuity on fusing thereof and a PTC device arranged in electrical series connection and in thermal contact with the isolator and in thermal contact with a heat sink the PTC device being so arranged that as the current exceeds said threshold, the power output of the PTC device exceeds the rate of heat loss to the sink and increases rapidly beyond the level normally required to fuse said element.
  • the present invention consists in a method for isolating electrical circuit means upon potentially damaging changes in operating conditions by the connection series of a normally conducting isolator having a fusable element and being adapted to break electrical continuity on fusing of that element, wherein a PTC device is arranged in thermal communication with the element and with a heat sink and adapted such that in normal operating conditions the rate of heat generation in the PTC device equals the rate of heat loss to the sink, it being further arranged that upon a potentially damaging change in operating conditions the rate of power generation exceeds the rate of heat loss and increases rapidly beyond the level required to fuse said element.

  • a PTC or positive temperature coefficient device has the well known feature that the resistance increases rapidly over a short temperature range. The precise characteristics can be tailored to meet particular applications by controlling the manufacturing process.
  • a typical plot of the resistance of a PTC against working temperature is shown in Figure 1. It will be seen that over a temperature range of around 5 C the resistance of the device increases by three orders of magnitude.
  • PTCs have a wide variety of applications and one particular configuration is shown in Figure 2. Since the resistance R p of the PTC device will vary with working temperature and will thus be dependent upon the power generated by self-heating in the PTC device, it is instructive to consider a plot of power P p against PTC resistance R p and this is shown in Figure 3 « The power P_ generated in the PTC is shown as well as the power P..
  • the power P p dissipated in the PTC has a maximum value and it can be shown that this will be reached if and when R p becomes equal to R L
  • the operating point will shift to the intersection of the heat dissipation curve with a fresh P/T plot corresponding to the increased current.
  • a threshold value will be reached which the P/T curve for that current fails to intersect the heat dissipation curve.
  • the rate at which power is generated within the PTC device will then always exceed the rate of heat dissipation.
  • the temperature of the device will increase, the resistance will accordingly increase, leading in turn to increased power output. This positive feedback will continue until such time as the resistance R reaches the value of the load resistance R L at the peak value shown in Figure 3 and the power generated in the PTC begins to fall.
  • either the power curve will intersect once more the heat dissipation curve with the device re-stabilising or the temperature of the PTC device will reach a level at which the resistance passes its maximum and begins to fall in a thermal runaway condition.
  • o e device according to this invention comprises an insulating tube 10 closed at one end by a metal disc 12 carrying an external terminal Ik .
  • a PTC pill 16 carrying on its outer surface a terminal 18.
  • soldered joint 20 which secures one end of a tension spring 22, the opposite end of which is secured at anchorage 24 to the plate 12.
  • the described device is to be used in the high voltage circuit of a microwave appliance.
  • a magnitron is powered from the secondary of a high voltage transformer with a diode voltage doubling circuit connected in series to produce the required voltage of around 2.3 V.
  • the normal working current may be, for example, 500 milliamps, although failure of a diode may cause the current to rise to, say, 700 milliamps.
  • the described device is-connected in series with the magnitron.
  • the resistance of the voltage doubling circuit will typically be several kilohms whilst the resistance of the protective device may be, for example, only 5 ohms. Accordingly, the current is effected to a minimal extent by the cold resistance of the PTC pill and it is also the case that the PTC device is not required to withstand the operating voltage of around 2.3 kilovolts.
  • the described device In normal operation, the described device is connected in series with the diode circuit and the magnitron, electrical continuity being established through the spring 22, the solder joint 20 and the PTC pill 16.
  • the passage of current through the PTC pill will lead to self-heating and the temperature of the pill - and necessarily also that of the solder joint - will rise as before described to an equilibrium temperature at which the power generated through self- heating is balanced by heat dissipation.
  • ambient temperature is 60 C.
  • the PTC device At the normal working current of 00 milliamps, the PTC device will be in thermal equilibrium at working point Z. It can now be seen that if the current rises in a fault condition to 700 milliamps, the power generation curve fails to intersect the cooling curve and the PTC device will heat rapidly. Within a very short interval, the temperature attained by the PTC pill 16 will exceed the melting point of the solder joint 20. The tension spring 22 will therefore be released and electrical continuity through the device will be broken.
  • the protective device may be required to operate over a range of ambient temperatures. In such circumstances the characteristics of the PTC device will be selected so that within the anticipated band of ambient temperatures, there was always thermal stability at any point within the normal current range but that any current in excess of the stated fault current would lead to thermal runaway.

  • a spade terminal 114 is rigidly secured to the connection disc 110 and extends outwardly of the housing through channel 116.

Abstract

Un système de protection contre une surintensité de courant comprend un dispositif à coefficient thermique positif (CTP) et un ressort de tension qui sont reliés par une jonction par brasage adjacente au dispositif à CTP. Le courant électrique passe en série à travers le ressort et le dispositif à CTP. Dans des conditions normales de fonctionnement, le dispositif précité est en équilibre thermique avec son environnement. Si le courant augmente jusqu'à un état de défaillance, l'énergie dissipée dans le dispositif à CTP s'accroît rapidement et la température monte pour provoquer la fusion de la jonction par brasage. Du fait de la très rapide élévation de température, une isolation pratiquement immédiate est assurée par l'intermédiaire de la jonction par brasage.
