ELECTRICAL SAFETY-FUSE.
Specification of Letters Patent.

Application filed November 29, 1910. Serial No. 594,647.
`provided with means for preventing the use of false insertion pieces suitable for too great vor too little strength of current, and differs from known safety fuses by the improvement of the contact at the top of the plug and of the cap in such manner that these contact parts determine the limits of current strength permissible in each case. For this purpose the contact piece of the cap is lengthened into a sleeve which is passed over the central contact bolt, and at the same time effects ,the quick iixing of the safety fuse by the gripping of a screw-threaded nut fitted into the bore of the plug, and a bayonet joint or other suitable quick closing connection into the correspondingly formed contact bolt. The production of an intimate contact in the upper part of the plug is effected by letting a box with spring sides into a recess in the said upper part of the plug, which sides grasp yieldingly but closely a ring on the aforesaid sleeve. The closing of the current is not produced alone by the upper and lower contacts, but also by the above mentioned quick closing connection and guide socket and is equally distributed over the separate component parts of the safety fuse as has been heretofore possible.
In the accompanying drawings Figures 1, Y
2 and 2 are sectional views of a safetyefuse constructed iii accordance with my invention. Figs. 3 to 7 are detail views of same, and Figs. 8 to 14 show modifications.
As shown in Figs. 1 and 2 there is Xed in the middle of the base a a screwed" bolt h over which is passed the plug ZJ furnished with a central bore. a metallic bushing f which serves as a guide socket, andwhich carries at its lower part a partly cut away screwed projection Z. The metal rings c, c at the bottom of the plug b and on base a form the lower or foot contact in the usual known way, while the upper or head contact, connected with the lower contact by the fuse wire consists of a box This bore is lined with` Z with slit spring sides i let into the upper recess of the plug into which boX the contact piece j of the cover e enters. The contact piece y' forms a ring at the upper part of the sleeve g Xed to the cover e, which sleeve is, in some cases, furnished with a tongueml the breadth and depth of which fits the cut away part of the screw threadZ (F ig. 2a). For this and the tongue m may be substituted a bayonet joint or any other suitable quick closing connection.
For the purpose of placing the plug b in the base a it is, in the example shown, first passed with its central bore and screw thread Z over the screw bolt It, which is possible without gripping of the thread of Z in that of h, as the cut-away part of Z allows a suiiicient side movement of Z opposite to L. Thereupon the sleeve g, fixed to the cover e, is guided so far into the space between the metal bush or guide socket f and the bolt h, that the said space is completely illed, and the ring j is clamped :tast between the. spring sides c' of the boX (Z, so that the circuit is closed through the rings c, the fuse wire c, the upper contact eZ, e', j, and the sleeve g to the bolt L direct on the one hand and on the other hand over the guide socket f and the screw-thread Z. The grip of the screwthread Z in the thread of the bolt h is at the same time assured by the entry of the tonguepiece m into the cut-away part of the nut screw-thread Z. If the tongue m fails the placing of the sleeve g in the guide socket f suiiices to center it and therefore to eiect the gripping of the screw-threads. The tightening up of the screw connection Z, h is now effected by turning the plug Z).
In Fig. 10 the invention is shown applied to a safety-fuse the cap of which has, .as usual, a flat contact. The socket projection g on the handle g isfurnished with a tongue m', and is placed in the space between the lined bore of the cover and the screwthreaded bolt ZL for closing the connection, whereby'the grip of the screw-threads and the tightening up are effected in the same way as previously described.
The means for preventing the use of wrong insertion-pieces according to the invention -may be varied considerably, but they must be so arranged that they correspond with the sleeve g making the contact for the upper side of the plug.
In Figs. 3 to 6 are shown, by way of eX- ample, plugs and insertion-pieces for 30, 20, 10 and 6 amperes. Tension and current strength are for each safety plug suitably marked, as shown in Fig. 7, on the upper sidenof the cover connected with the sleeve g and contact j, and forming one piece with them, in order to avoid confusion heretofore present. -As shown in Figs. 3 to 6 the plug-socket f and the sleeve g are of diferent lengths for t-he different safety-fuses, so that for example in a plug for 6 amperes an insertion sleeve for 30 amperes cannot be so inserted that the current circuit is closed in the contact piece al, z', j. As seeny in Figs. 4, 5 and 6 the lsleeves g, at their outer surface, and the metallic linings f in their` bores are so shaped that in any plug Z) neither a cover e with sleeve g adapted for higher nor for lower strength of current can be inserted so as to close the circuit. If for example, as shown in dotted lines in Fig. 5, an insertion piece designed for 20 amperes is put into a plu b designed for 10 amperes, the lower end ot the sleeve g comes against the screw-threaded part Z before the entrance of the contact piece j into the box i, cl is possible. It on the other hand an insertion piece designed for 10 amperes is pui` into a plug designed for 20 amperes (Fig. 4) the shoulder o of the sleeve g comes against the projection o3 of t-he guide socket fand thus prevents the closing of the current circuit at the upper part of the plug. In Figs. 8 and 9 are shown further means for effecting the same object. In this case there are used insertion-pieces g .of various depths of bore, as well as a number of adjusting screws p, p which are screwed into the upper end of the screwed bolt h. The bores of the sleeves g of various depths, and the various heights of the adjusting screws screwed into the bolts L, only allow the entrance of the contact piece j into the box Z if the screw p has the height corresponding to the depth of the bore in the sleeve g. In Figs. 8 and 9 the parts are so shown that contact is produced. If, however, the screw p of the arrangement according to Fig. 9 is put into that according to Fig. 8 the formation of a contact is prevented. The arrangement of adjusting screws is not required when, as shown in Figs. 11 and 1Q, screwed bolts zf, h2, h3, h4, h5, of various heights are arranged in the usual way. In the employment of arrangements such as those shown in Figs. 8, 9 or 11, 12 regard must also be had to the fact that by placing an insertion-piece g designed for higher adjusting screws p, p, or for higher screwthreaded bolts L to 71.5, on to screws of less height contact cannot be made if at the same time the sleeves g or the guide sockets f have different lengths, and are provided with shoulders o.
The above described devices give the further advantage of the convenient employment of the already known indicator pin on the removable plug-cover e, easily seen from outside, for indicatingthe break of the fusing wire, as shown in Figs. 13 and 14. In these gures parts e, b, h, f, g, d, and j correspond substantially to the parts denoted by the same letters in Figs. 1 and 2. In t-he plug b is inserted, parallel to the principal fusing wire 7c, a secondary wire le', to which the lower head 1 of the pin 2, placed in a recess of the plug b, is connected. This pin is pushed out, by the action of an insulated spring, on the melting of the wire, so that its end 4 projects out of an eccentrically arranged hole in the plug cover e (Fig. 13) or allows an indicator pin 8 fitted into the central bore of the cover to be pushed out by means of the lateral arm 7 (Fig. 14) .so that rupture of the fusing thread is thereby indicated.
