FIELD
[0001] Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to the field of electrical equipment,
and more particularly, to a surge protector.
BACKGROUND
[0002] A surge protector is an electronic apparatus that provides safety protection for
various electronic devices, instruments, and communication lines. When a spike current
or voltage is suddenly generated in an electrical circuit or a communication line
due to external disturbance, the surge protector can shunt in a very short time, thereby
avoiding damage to other devices in the circuit by surge.
[0003] The surge protector includes a functional module and a base provided for plugging
and unplugging of the functional module. When the functional module has a replacement
requirement, the functional module needs to be unplugged from the base, and at this
time, the smaller a plugging force between the functional module and the base is set,
the convenient it is to unplug the functional module from the base. However, in a
normal working process of the surge protector, the functional module may be affected
by some shock and vibration in a usage environment, so as to be easily separated from
the base, and therefore, an additional locking structure is required between the functional
module and the base to prevent the functional module from separating from the base.
