THERMAL CUTOUT

摘要

The thermal cutout comprises a casing (1) in which at least a portion of casing (3) is of heatconducting material, two terminals (5) carried by an electrically insulating plug (4) and an electrically conductive moving element (6) maintained in contact with each terminal (5) by a member (8) which is deformable under the action of heat and which is in turn in contact with the heat-conducting portion of casing (3). The cutout essentially comprises a translationally displaceable electrically insulating member (7) forming a separation between on the one hand the heat-deformable member (8) and on the other hand the terminals (5) and the electrically conductive element (6).
