Application: Thermal fuse (Patent ID: US20240194432A1)
The patent filed by SolarEdge Technologies Inc. describes systems, apparatuses, and methods for thermal fuse circuit breakers that can prevent catastrophic events like fires or damage to expensive components in case of overheating conditions due to arc discharges. The thermal fuses are designed to be placed in connectors, where the heat from an arc discharge melts a portion of the fuse, disconnecting the circuit and preventing further damage.
The apparatus for thermal disconnection includes a first conductor, a second conductor, a spring, and a low melting temperature alloy between the conductors. When the apparatus is closed, the conductors are connected via the alloy, and the spring stores potential energy. In response to a temperature increase above the alloy's melting point, the apparatus transitions to an open configuration, isolating the conductors. The system also includes an inverter, photovoltaic panels, cables, and connectors with similar thermal disconnection mechanisms to prevent overheating incidents in solar energy systems. The connectors feature springs made of materials like low-alloy manganese or steel, and the conductors can be copper or aluminum, ensuring efficient thermal disconnection in case of emergencies.
