摘要:
The present invention provides a circuit protection device that comprises at least one set of reed members having a pair of reed members, wherein each of the reed members is constituted by a magnetic material and disposed in such a way as to be opposed to the other of the reed members and has an end disposed in such a manner as to be apart by a predetermined gap from and contactable with an end of the other of said reed members, magnetic-field generating unit placed in vicinity of the reed members set and adapted to generate a holding magnetic field for maintaining a state, in which the end of the reed members are in contact with each other, after the ends of the reed members are attracted to each other and the contacts are closed and a contact gap reduction unit for reducing the gap to a gap corresponding to a pull-in of the magnetic field generated by said magnetic-field generating unit.

A switch operable under a predetermined condition includes a plurality of switch parts each including a pair of reed pieces and a connecting member of an electrically conductive non-magnetic material via which the plurality of switch parts are serially connected. The switch operates only under a condition where all of the plurality of switch parts are operated by external magnetic fields individually and simultaneously acting on the plurality of switch parts.
摘要:
An overcurrent switch is described, comprising a reed switch for series connection in an electric circuit to break the flow of an overcurrent therethrough. A magnetizing element applies a magnetic field to the reed switch, and a setting device controls the magnetic field so that at least two levels of magnetic field intensity are selectively applied to the reed switch.
