Fuse holder and associated method
A holder for receiving fuses is provided. The holder includes a housing and a fuse shuttle. The fuse shuttle is slidably cooperable with the housing in a first portion of the housing and pivotally cooperable with the housing in a second portion of the housing. The fuse shuttle and the housing define a fuse loading position and a fuse operational position.
FUSE SWITCH MODULE
The invention refers to a low-cost fuse switch module that comprises a pair of fixed contacts and a rotary contact rotatable about a rotation axis located in-between the fixed contacts. The rotary contact is rotatable between a closed position in which it is connected with the fixed contacts to enable current circulation, and an open position in which the rotary contact is electrically isolated from the pair of fixed contacts . An overcurrent protection fuse is provided for limiting maximum current circulation through the contacts in the closed position, and the fuse is rotatable about the axis and it is arranged to operate as the rotary contact of the switch, such as by rotating the fuse about the rotation axis, the switch reciprocally transit from the closed to the open position.
Coupling device for short-circuit protection
A coupling device is provided having a first connector with a first primary pin and a second primary pin. The coupling device also defines a first recess and a second recess. The first recess is configured to receive a first component selected from the group consisting of a fuse or a jumper, and the second recess is configured to receive a second component selected from the group consisting of a fuse or a jumper. The first recess is closed when the first component is received in the first recess. When the first recess is closed, the first component forms part of a first electrical circuit with the first primary pin. Additionally, the second recess is closed when the second component is received in the second recess. When the second recess is closed, the second component forms part of a second electrical circuit with the second primary pin.
FUSE HOLDER AND ASSOCIATED METHOD
A holder for receiving fuses is provided. The holder includes a housing and a fuse shuttle. The fuse shuttle is slidably cooperable with the housing in a first portion of the housing and pivotally cooperable with the housing in a second portion of the housing. The fuse shuttle and the housing define a fuse loading position and a fuse operational position.
Fuse cutout monitoring and indication device
A device for monitoring and indicating a fuse tube detachment from a fuse cutout assembly contains a structural body, a tilt switch, a power source, a visual indicator, and an attachment mechanism. The attachment mechanism is used to mount the device onto the fuse tube. The tilt switch monitors the position of the fuse tube. More specifically, when the vertical position of the fuse tube changes to the dropped position the tilt switch is triggered. Thus, the visual indicator is illuminated. The illumination aids in the process of discovering the detached fuse tube. In addition to the visual indicator, the device can also be equipped with a wireless communication device and an alarm system. The wireless communication device can be used to provide the exact location of the detached fuse tube. On the other hand, the alarm system can be used to expedite the process of discovering the detached fuse tube.
Push-in fuse holder
A fuse holder is disclosed. The fuse holder includes a housing having a fuse compartment and termination compartments, each termination compartment having a cable termination aperture for receiving a cable and a lock pin slot; a bus assembly disposed including current bars having a first end and a second end extending from the termination compartment to the termination compartment, the first end having fuse contacts extending from the first end, the second end including a barb extending from the second end; and, push-in clamps disposed within the termination compartment, the push-in clamps normally biased against the barbs; wherein insertion of an electrical cable into the cable termination aperture depresses and elastically deforms the push-in clamp such that a gap is formed between the barb and the push-in clamp, wherein the push-in clamp continuously applies a biasing force against the electrical cable non-removably clamping the cable into the termination aperture.
Fuse holder and associated method
A holder for receiving fuses is provided. The holder includes a housing and a fuse shuttle. The fuse shuttle is slidably cooperable with the housing in a first portion of the housing and pivotally cooperable with the housing in a second portion of the housing. The fuse shuttle and the housing define a fuse loading position and a fuse operational position.
Fuse Structure for a Plug Device
A fuse structure for a plug device is disposed in a body of the plug device and configured to be electrically connected to a plug circuit of the plug device. The plug device includes at least one casing for exposing a pin, in which an assembly chamber for a fuse and a cover are disposed below the casing. A horizontal slot for the fuse is disposed in the fuse assembly chamber, and the cover is configured cover the assembly chamber for the fuse. A pivot shaft of the cover is disposed adjacent to an articulating shaft of the casing, and the cover is prevented from being opened by the casing when the casing is unfolded.
FUSE HOLDER AND ASSOCIATED METHOD
