Description

Leakage protector
The present invention relates to Electrical Safety resist technology field, the particularly a kind of shower relevant and the leakage protector of similar electrical equipment use with electricity.
The existing shower relevant with electricity and the additional protection of similar electrical equipment Electrical Safety realize with the Electrical leakage protector; but these earth leakage protective devices can only detect between phase in the loaded line, the zero line and have or not residual current; when residual current occurring and reaching a certain numerical value; for example during 10mA; it just can move; cut off phase, the zero line of load, that is to say, it is only to be docked at that load after its hinders for some reason and the electric leakage accident that causes shields.Yet; only this protection of a host of facts proof is incomplete; even often owing to not having residual current between various factors load phase, the zero line; this electrical equipment and fault-free; earth leakage protective device also is normal; but still the casualty accident of can getting an electric shock, its reason is that the power supply outside the earth leakage protective device protection range has fault, causes ground wire, shell and the shower water of electrical appliance charged.For example under the situation of imperfect earth, insulation damages between power supply phase, the earth polar, ground wire connecting to neutral fault, user's transgression for using electricity is done loop etc. with ground wire or water pipe, the capital makes ground wire, shell or the water tank of electrical equipment charged, and just the water of the person causes the electric shock casualty accident to electric current by drenching extremely during shower.This accident earth leakage protective device exactly can't detect and draws, thereby also just can not cut off load power source, even turn-offed load power source phase, zero line, also can't cut off the electric current of being introduced by ground wire or shell in the current, does not stop the electric shock casualty accident.
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of more comprehensively, more effective leakage protector, it not only can prevent because of the caused electric shock accidents of the fault of electrical equipment own, and can also prevent the electric shock accidents that power failure caused beyond the electrical equipment.
The objective of the invention is to realize: a kind of leakage protector by following technical scheme; comprise water pipe, amplifying circuit, trip free device, power cutoff mechanism, the mechanism of cutting off the water supply, experimental rig; the mechanism of cutting off the water supply is contained on the water pipe; the trip free device carries out switching control simultaneously to power cutoff mechanism, the mechanism of cutting off the water supply, and also is provided with on this water pipe and can detects the inductor whether current that flow through in the water pipe have electric current.Described inductor is made up of iron core and secondary winding, and this iron core is made by beryllium Mo alloy or amorphous alloy or ultramicro-crystal alloy material, is wound with secondary winding on this iron core, and this iron core center hub is in detected water pipe.Described inductor secondary winding output is connected with input amplifier, controllable silicon that is connected with trip free device coil two ends of amplification circuit output end control, take off or hand-reset by this silicon controlled on-off State Control trip free device, trip free device and power cutoff mechanism mechanical connection, thereby realize the on-off state of power cutoff mechanism output, reach the purpose that control is switched on or switched off water, electricity.The described mechanism of cutting off the water supply adopts electromagnetically operated valve or tongs, when adopting electromagnetically operated valve, electromagnetically operated valve is connected with water pipe, the electromagnetic valve coil two ends are connected with the power cutoff mechanism output, control the electromagnetically operated valve water flowing or close water by the on-off of power cutoff mechanism, when adopting tongs, tongs directly links to each other with the trip free device by mechanical connection, detected tube of glue is passed in the tongs, the trip free device thread off with reset just can control this tongs open or close state, thereby the realization water flowing or the purpose of cutting off the water supply.
Essence of the present invention is directly to detect the current situation that directly contacts with human body, as long as current are charged, when might jeopardize user's personal safety, the capital is closed current immediately, or simultaneously power supply is closed, also have only and got rid of after the fault, power supply just can resume water supply.Specifically, do circlewise or the inductor iron core of other shapes directly is enclosed within on the water pipe, and the elementary winding of this water pipe as inductor, this water pipe can be metal tube or PAP or sebific duct.When the flowing water no current of water pipe, the just non-inductive voltage in inductor secondary winding two ends; When the flowing water of water pipe had electric current, induced voltage just appearred in its secondary winding two ends, and electric current is big more, and induced voltage is also high more.So, also just need not to go to detect between the phase of loaded line, zero line to have method now whether residual current is arranged.The mechanism of cutting off the water supply can adopt electromagnetically operated valve or tongs etc.When adopting electromagnetically operated valve, if the flowing water of water pipe does not have electric current or electric current less than the safe dose of setting, 5mA for example, then non-inductive voltage of inductor secondary winding or induced voltage are lower than operating value, and the trip free device just can not threaded off, and electromagnetically operated valve continues energising work.But when the flowing water of water pipe has greater than the electric current of setting the safe dose twice, 10mA for example, then inductor secondary induction voltage will make the trip free device thread off, and cuts off the power supply of electromagnetically operated valve simultaneously, and closed electromagnetic valve is also cut off the water supply immediately.If adopt tongs, then can control its folding by the push rod of trip free device, reach the purpose of water pipe water flow switch.Because release is a free handle, fault is not got rid of and cannot be resetted, also just cannot resume water supply automatically, only fix a breakdown, after the current vanishes, just can reset in the water, supply water again with manual mode, thereby guarantee that the water that directly contacts with human body is not charged, the generation of the casualty accident of more fully avoiding getting an electric shock.For electric heating shower; mains switch, the water mixing valve of electromagnetically operated valve is contained in the leakage protector and is independent of electric heater; only need operate leakage protector simply when making it shower; and need not to touch electric heater; add leakage protector and electric heater water pipe connecting and be and adopt plastic cement pipe or multiple tube, thereby the safety of guaranteeing shower person is in perfectly safe.
The present invention can increase a temperature sensing and answer device in its control circuit, in order to detect the water pipe leaving water temperature, just can cut off the water supply immediately when water temperature is too high, thereby avoid taking place the scald accident.
Advantage of the present invention and remarkable result are:
1, whether the leakage protector that is used for electric heating shower and similar electrical equipment is directly to detect the current that contact with human body to have; it need not to comprehend these electric currents at all and comes therefrom; as long as electric current reaches set point in the water; just cut off the water supply immediately and also cut off simultaneously the power supply of shower; whole process only needs 0.1 second; in time allow shower person break away from the harm of electric shock thereby the generation of more comprehensively, more effectively stopping human casualty accident.
2, before fault is got rid of, can not resume water supply, power, only after fixing a breakdown, the recovery operate as normal just can manual mode resets.
3, occur being enough to jeopardize the electric current of personal safety when water pipe flowing water, for example during 10mA, only need close current and isolate, just can ensure that it can not come to harm by the instant and charged water of shower person.Therefore, the present invention and appliance power are irrelevant, and itself institute wasted work rate is very little, and can adopt independent current source.In contrast, existing earth leakage protective device but needs to match with the power of electrical equipment, supportingly just has any problem for power is king-sized, particularly can not supporting miniature movable type and can make the directly additional protection earth leakage protective device of protection.Thereby range of application of the present invention is just more extensive, directly-heated type fast water heater for example, and power be difficult to have suitable earth leakage protective device to cooperate, and the present invention just can use up easily all more than 6 kilowatts.
4, this leakage protector both can be used as electrical accessorie and had been contained on the electric heater; also can with multiple compound mode as one independently product allow the user be applied on the different occasions; for example it and water mixing valve, mains switch are combined as a complete product, just can reach functions such as electrical shock protection, electronic effluent switch, adjusting water temperature.
