Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of transformer submersible robots, and in particular relates to a sealing test device for transformer submersible robots. Background Art

[0002] As the core equipment to ensure the normal operation of the power grid, the safe, reliable and economic operation of large oil-immersed transformers is closely related to the social economy and residents' lives. When a large oil-immersed transformer fails, it is necessary to find the cause of the failure in time and confirm the internal state of the equipment. At present, most of this inspection is still carried out by hanging covers or professionals entering the transformer through the manhole reserved on the transformer. Before the inspection, the transformer oil inside the transformer needs to be drained, which not only takes a long time to power outage and consumes a lot of manpower, but also may cause internal pollution of the transformer, bringing secondary hidden dangers to the safe operation of the transformer. Therefore, it is of great significance to seek a method that can systematically carry out internal state inspection of oil-immersed main transformers without or with less oil. There are many advantages of using robots to replace manual labor to carry out transformer internal inspection. Since it can partially replace manual labor, it reduces personnel risks; since the oil discharge operation can be partially avoided, it reduces the risk of moisture on the transformer insulation paper; since it can shorten the operation time and reduce the power outage time, it brings great economic benefits. It is precisely because of these advantages that many well-known transformer manufacturers and scientific research institutions at home and abroad have invested in the research and development of transformer submersible robots.

[0003] Compared with traditional manual internal inspection, the use of robot internal inspection can greatly shorten the time of on-site oil discharge inspection, reduce manual labor intensity, and reduce the risk of accidental insulation damage. The advantages are very obvious and have received widespread attention from power grid companies and transformer manufacturers.

[0004] When the submersible robot is working inside the transformer, it is completely immersed in the insulating oil and needs to withstand the pressure of the oil, which is prone to leakage. Since the transformer oil that has just been taken out of operation may still have a certain temperature rise, the oil temperature may be higher than the ambient temperature. The temperature rise will cause the expansion and contraction of the sealing structure of the submersible robot, causing leakage. On the other hand, the commonly used sealing materials are plastics, rubber and other materials. After being immersed in transformer oil, there are problems such as expansion and dissolution, which are prone to leakage.

[0005] However, the art currently lacks a special sealing detection device for transformer submersible robots. Summary of the invention
