Housing for a pyromechanical disconnecting device with integrated ignition element
View Patent ↗A pyromechanical disconnecting device, in particular for battery shutoff in a motor vehicle include a housing ( 1 ) in which there is arranged a conductor bus ( 11 ) that is designed to be severable by a cutting chisel ( 12 ) at a predetermined cut point, the cutting chisel being capable of being accelerated by the propellant gases of an ignition element ( 2 ). In order to facilitate assembly it is proposed that the housing ( 1 ) be extruded around the ignition element ( 2 ), which in this way forms one structural unit with the housing ( 1 ).
1. A pyromechanical disconnecting device comprising a housing in which there is arranged a conductor bus that is designed to be severable by a cutting chisel at a predetermined cut point, the cutting chisel being capable of being accelerated by the propellant gases of an ignition element, characterized in that the housing is extruded around the ignition element, which in this way forms one structural unit with the housing.
2. The pyromechanical disconnecting device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the housing is made of an electrically insulating material.
3. The pyromechanical disconnecting device according to claim 2 , characterized in that strength-enhancing fillers such as glass fibers or carbon fibers are arranged in the insulating material.
4. The pyromechanical disconnecting device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the housing is made of a plastic.
5. The pyromechanical disconnecting device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the housing is not extruded around connecting pins of the ignition element for electrical contacting and said pins are arranged in a recess of the housing.
6. The pyromechanical disconnecting device according to claim 5 , characterized in that the connecting pins of the ignition element are insulated from one another.
7. The pyromechanical disconnecting device according to claim 1 , characterized in that an interior of the housing has a peripheral recess in the region of the ignition element for attaching the cutting chisel.
8. The pyromechanical disconnecting device according to claim 7 , characterized in that there is arranged in the peripheral recess, one the side facing toward the ignition element, a peripheral groove in which a seal ring is accommodated.
9. A battery shut off in a motor vehicle comprising a housing in which there is arranged a conductor bus that is designed to be severable by a cutting chisel at a predetermined cut point, the cutting chisel being capable of being accelerated by the propellant gases of an ignition element, characterized in that the housing is extruded around the ignition element, which in this way forms one structural unit with the housing.
