摘要: A battery assembly can include a pair of batteries. The battery pair may be electrically coupled by a bimetallic strip. When the temperature of the battery assembly exceeds a threshold temperature, the bimetallic strip deforms so that the coupling between the first and second batteries breaks. In other cases, the battery pair may be coupled by a spring-loaded connector. A sacrificial block configured to melt if the temperature of the battery assembly increases beyond the threshold temperature may force the spring into an energy-storing configuration. When the sacrificial block melts, the spring is released, and the connector is forced in a direction away from the battery terminals. Finally, the battery assembly may include a thermopile and one or more relays. When a temperature gradient of the thermopile exceeds a threshold gradient, the thermopile generates a voltage that causes the relays to disconnect the battery assembly from a charging circuit.

摘要: A fuse element for a fuse with an integrated measurement function, includes a first receiving area in an embodiment, for receiving a melting conductor of the fuse, delimited in the length direction of the fuse by a closure element and in a direction orthogonal to the length direction by the fuse element. Further, in an embodiment, the fuse element has a second receiving area, physically separated from the first receiving area, for receiving a measuring device of the fuse. The second receiving area is designed to receive the measuring device in a wall section of the fuse element. The second receiving area formed in the fuse element protects the measuring device arranged therein against interfering environmental influences. The measuring device is used to ascertain the electric current flowing through the fuse directly on the fuse.

摘要: Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for thermal fuse circuit breakers. The thermal fuses described herein may be disposed in a connector, so that, should an overheating condition occur, for example, due to an arc discharge across or inside of the connector, the heat of the arc discharge melts a portion of the fuse, thereby preventing a potentially catastrophic event, such as fire, or damage to a component which may be more expensive than the thermal fuse itself.

摘要: A release apparatus includes a coiled restraining wire with each end attached to a corresponding fuse wire. The fuse wires are supplied with respective actuation electric currents by respective independent current sources. Flow of actuation current through a fuse wire causes that fuse wire to break; breakage of either one or both fuse wires allows the restraining wire to partially uncoil and allow the release apparatus to transition from a retained condition to a released condition, by allowing disengagement of retention members from a release member that can then move out of the release apparatus. The release apparatus can be employed to attach a deployable component to a satellite or spacecraft, and can be readily repaired, refurbished or reset for repetitive ground testing.

摘要: Disclosed is a protection element having electrodes for electrically connecting an external circuit, and a fuse structure formed by stacking at least two metal layers of different melting points and installed between the at least two electrodes. The fusing temperature of the fuse structure can be adjusted by controlling the mass ratio of the two different metal layers, and such design not just offers more diversified product specifications to the protection element only, but also provides a broader range of selecting the metals to avoid metals that produce toxic substances, so as to help passing the RoHS standard of the protection element.

摘要: A multi layer fuse device includes a substrate and an elongated fuse element, having a pair of contact pads formed therewith at opposed longitudinal ends thereof formed on one surface of the substrate. A pair of passivation layers are provided covering the fuse and contact pads. Windows may be opened through both passivation layers above both of the contact pads, and conductive electrode material is electroplated through the windows to contact the contact pads and to extend partially above a top surface of the passivation layers. Exposed electroplated material may be coated with solderable conductive material or a surface mount termination may be provided. Electroplated material may cover a portion of the fuse surface prior to application of the passivation layers and extend to an end of the substrate so that windows are not required.

摘要: A smart fuse for circuit protection includes a first shaft and second shaft separated by a gap. A heater is located inside portions of the first and second shafts, and the heater is held in place within the shafts by a solder alloy that fills the gap. The shafts and solder alloy form an electrical signal path through the fuse. A spring is attached to the heater. The spring is stretched such that the spring exerts a force on the heater. The solder alloy holds the heater in place and resists the force exerted by the spring. In an activation condition of the fuse, the heater increases in temperature and melts the solder alloy. The melted solder alloy no longer resists the force exerted by the spring, and the spring pulls the heater through the second shaft until the gap is open, thereby severing the electrical connection through the fuse.
