Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power distribution switch equipment, and in particular to a ring network cabinet. Background Art

[0002] The main circuit structure of the current environmental protection ring main unit basically adopts the scheme of vacuum switch + three-position switch. According to the arrangement of the three-position switch, the environmental protection ring main unit is divided into two schemes: three-position on the bus side and three-position on the line side. Both schemes have their own advantages and disadvantages. For the three-position scheme on the bus side, a circuit breaker with the ability to close short-circuit fault current is connected in series between the three-position switch and the cable outlet. The performance is reliable, but a reliable interlocking mechanism is required to ensure that the circuit breaker will not be opened when the grounding switch and the circuit breaker are both closed; for the three-position scheme on the line side, the grounding switch is directly connected to the grounded outlet cable, which meets the safety regulations. However, when the three-position on the line side is directly closed by the grounding switch on the cable outlet short-circuit fault current, the arc erosion generated during pre-breakdown must be overcome, so the closing speed must be very fast, which is more difficult. The market demand for these two schemes is also different. In the prior art, the structures of the three-position environmentally friendly ring main unit on the bus side and the three-position environmentally friendly ring main unit on the line side are very different. For both arrangements, the vacuum switch and the three-position switch need to be specially designed. The vacuum switch and the three-position switch are not interchangeable, which causes inconvenience in production and assembly. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The existing environmental protection ring network cabinets need to be specially designed for the three-position scheme on the bus side and the three-position scheme on the line side. The vacuum switch and the three-position switch cannot be universal, which causes inconvenience in production and assembly. The present invention proposes a ring network cabinet that can improve the universality of the vacuum switch and the three-position switch, which is more convenient for production and assembly. The basic inventive concept of the present invention is: the three-phase three-position switch is modularly designed, the three-phase circuit breaker is modularly designed, the three-position switch module and the circuit breaker module are independent of each other, so that the opening and closing direction of the three-position switch and the opening and closing direction of the circuit breaker are both in the up and down direction, which is consistent with the incoming and outgoing line direction of the ring network cabinet, and the three-position switch module and the circuit breaker module are arranged left and right, so that the three-position switch module and the circuit breaker module can realize the three-position scheme on the bus side and the three-position scheme on the line side through different combinations, and the three-position switch module and the circuit breaker module are standardized, thereby improving universality.

[0017] Based on the above inventive concept, the embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below.

[0018] like Figure 7-10 As shown, the ring main unit of the present invention comprises a box body, and the left and right side walls of the box body are respectively installed with a three-position switch module 12 and a circuit breaker module 10 which are independent of each other. Figure 1 As shown, the three-position switch module includes a three-position module fixing frame and a three-phase three-position switch 4 installed on the three-position module fixing frame in parallel. The three-position module fixing frame includes a three-position switch fixing side plate 1. The front and rear ends of the three-position switch fixing side plate 1 are respectively provided with connection structures for fixing to the box body. The three-position switch fixing side plate 1 is fixedly connected with a grounding bar 3. The three-phase grounding static contacts 4-5 are fixedly installed on the grounding bar 3 according to the phase spacing. The three-position module fixing frame has a simple structure, is easy to process, and is light in weight. The three-position switch 4 is a direct-acting three-position switch, such as Figure 2-4 As shown, it includes components such as an isolating static contact 4-1, a grounding static contact 4-5, a switch moving contact seat 4-2, and a moving contact. The isolating static contact 4-1 and the grounding static contact 4-5 are respectively placed on the upper and lower sides, and the switch moving contact seat 4-2 and the moving contact arranged therein are located between the isolating static contact 4-1 and the grounding static contact 4-5. The moving contact is connected to the three-position operating mechanism in a transmission manner so that the switch can be opened and closed in a linear motion driven by the three-position operating mechanism. Specifically, a spur rack 4-4 extending up and down is fixedly installed on the moving contact, and a transmission gear 4-3 meshing with the spur rack 4-4 is fixedly installed on the insulating transmission shaft 2, which can be seen in FIG. Figure 1 The three-phase transmission gears 4-3 are fixedly installed on the insulating transmission shaft 2 according to a certain phase spacing. The insulating transmission shaft 2 is connected to the three-position operating mechanism to realize the synchronous action of the three-phase moving contacts.

[0019] The moving contact includes a separately arranged isolating moving contact 4-8 and a grounding moving contact 4-7, which are fixedly connected to realize synchronous action, and the grounding moving contact 4-7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the isolating moving contact 4-8 by bolts. The isolating moving contact and the grounding moving contact of the existing direct-acting three-position switch share one moving contact. During the grounding closing operation, the end of the moving contact used to close the switch with the grounding static contact will be severely burned. When the terminal on the moving contact or the moving contact seat is close to the end of the moving contact used to close the switch with the grounding static contact, the burning may spread to the terminal during the grounding closing, causing the moving contact to affect the flow capacity of the main circuit when it is used for isolation closing. In the present invention, the isolating moving contact 4-8 and the grounding moving contact 4-7 of the three-position switch 4 are not shared, so that the burning of the grounding moving contact 4-7 during the grounding closing operation will not affect the flow capacity of the main circuit. The switch moving contact seat 4-2 and the isolating static contact 4-1 are epoxy cast as one body, which helps to ensure the accuracy of the isolating closing. A mounting hole is provided in the switch moving contact seat 4-2, and the moving contact is installed in the mounting hole. Spring contact fingers 4-9 are provided at both ends of the mounting hole to abut against the moving contact. The isolating static contact 4-1 is provided with a spring contact finger 4-9 to abut against the moving contact when the isolating closing is performed. The grounding static contact 4-5 is provided with a petal-shaped contact finger to abut against the moving contact when the grounding closing is performed. The outside of the grounding static contact 4-5 is provided with a grounding shield 4-6, and the grounding shield 4-6 is made of 1060 aluminum alloy by spin forming process. Copper tungsten alloy is added to the bottom of the grounding moving contact 4-7 to improve the ablation resistance and have a 5-time grounding closing capability.

[0020] When the isolation is closed, Figure 2 As shown, the isolating moving contact 4-8 is inserted into the isolating static contact 4-1 and electrically contacts each other through the spring contact finger 4-9. Figure 3 As shown, the insulating transmission shaft 2 is operated, and the transmission gear 4-3 on the insulating transmission shaft 2 drives the three-phase isolating moving contact 4-8 through the spur rack 4-4 to move it, so that it separates from the isolating static contact 4-1 and reaches the middle position. Figure 4 As shown, the insulating transmission shaft 2 is operated, and the transmission gear 4-3 on the insulating transmission shaft 2 drives the three-phase grounding moving contact 4-7 through the spur rack 4-4 to make it electrically contact with the petal-shaped contact fingers of the grounding static contact 4-5.

[0021] The circuit breaker module can be placed upright or inverted according to the assembly requirements. Figure 5-6As shown, two states of the circuit breaker module, namely inverted and upright, are respectively displayed. In the inverted state, the pole column of the circuit breaker extends downward, and in the upright state, the pole column of the circuit breaker extends upward. The circuit breaker module 10 includes a circuit breaker module fixing frame and circuit breakers 7 installed side by side front and back on the circuit breaker module fixing frame. The moving contact of the circuit breaker 7 moves up and down for opening and closing. The two terminal ends of the circuit breaker 7 are respectively at one end in its up and down direction and one side surface in its left and right direction. The circuit breaker module fixing frame includes a circuit breaker frame 6 extending front and back and front support plates 5 and rear support plates 8 fixedly connected to the front and rear ends of the circuit breaker frame 6. Three-phase circuit breakers 7 are installed side by side front and back on the circuit breaker frame 6. Support plate connection structures for fixedly connecting to the box body are respectively provided on the front and rear support plates. The cross-sections of the front and rear support plates are both in the shape of "Ji". The flanges at both ends of the front and rear support plates are fitted and fixed to the box body. Connection holes are respectively provided on the flanges at both ends, and the flanges at both ends constitute the support plate connection structure. The front and rear support plates adopt such a structure. On the one hand, it improves the structural strength of the front and rear support plates and ensures the reliable fixation of the circuit breaker module fixing frame to the three-phase circuit breaker. On the other hand, it increases the fitting area between the front and rear support plates and the box body and improves the connection reliability. Reinforcing ribs 14 are also provided on the back surfaces of the front and rear support plates to further improve the structural strength.

[0022] Figure 7-10 It is a schematic assembly diagram of different functional structures of the ring main unit, which realizes different functional requirements through different combination methods of the three-position switch module 12 and the circuit breaker module 10. Taking Figure 7 the assembly schematic diagram of the three-position top-expanded main bus on the bus side of the ring main unit as an example, a top-out bushing 9 is provided at the top of the box body, and an incoming line bushing 11 is provided at the bottom of the box body. The three-position switch module 12 and the circuit breaker module 10 are arranged inside the box body. The circuit breaker module 10 is inverted and fixed to the side wall of the gas tank through the front support plate 5 and the rear support plate 8. The three-position switch module 12 is fixed through the three-position switch fixed side plate 1, the stud on the front plate of the box body, and the fixed mounting plate on the rear plate. The top-out bushing 9 is connected to the isolating static contact 4-1 of the three-position switch module 12 through a copper bar. The moving terminal ends on the side surfaces of the circuit breaker 7 of the inverted circuit breaker module 10 and the terminal ends provided on the switch moving contact seat 4-2 of the three-position switch module 12 face left and right respectively and are connected through a copper bar. The static terminal end of the inverted circuit breaker module 10 is connected to the incoming line bushing 11 through a copper rod. Figure 8 It is a schematic assembly diagram of the three-position side-expanded main bus on the bus side of the ring main unit. Except that the top-out bushing 9 is replaced by a side-expanded bushing 13 and the lengths of the connected copper bars and copper rods are changed, the rest are the same as Figure 7 the scheme.

[0023] Fig. 9The figure is a schematic diagram of the assembly of the three-position top expansion main busbar on the line side of the ring main unit. The top of the box is provided with a top busbar bushing 9, the bottom of the box is provided with an incoming line bushing 11, and the three-position switch module 12 and the circuit breaker module 10 are arranged inside the box. The circuit breaker module 10 is upright and fixed to the side wall of the gas box through the front support plate 5 and the rear support plate 8. The three-position switch module 12 is fixed to the box front plate studs and the rear plate fixed mounting plate through the three-position switch fixed side plate 1. The ejector busbar bushing 9 is connected to the static end terminal of the upright circuit breaker module 10 through a copper busbar, the dynamic end terminal on the side of the circuit breaker 7 of the upright circuit breaker module 10 is connected to the isolating static contact 4-1 of the three-position switch module 12 through a copper busbar, the dynamic end terminal on the side of the circuit breaker 7 of the upright circuit breaker module 10 and the terminal set on the switch dynamic contact seat 4-2 of the three-position switch module 12 are one facing left and the other facing right, and the terminal set on the switch dynamic contact seat 4-2 of the three-position switch module 12 is connected to the incoming line bushing 11 through a copper rod. Fig.10 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly of the three-station side-expanded main busbar on the line side of the ring main unit. The core components are the same as those of the previous one, except that the top busbar bushing 9 is replaced with the side-expanded busbar bushing 13 and the length of the connected copper bar and copper rod is changed. Fig. 9 The plan is consistent.

[0024] The ring network cabinet of the present invention performs modular design on the three-position switch and the circuit breaker respectively. The three-position switch module 12 and the circuit breaker module 10 are independent of each other, and can meet the requirements of the three-position bus side, the three-position line side, the top expansion main bus and the side expansion main bus of the ring network cabinet through different combinations when the circuit breaker module 10 and the three-position switch module 12 are common, and the standardization of the modules is realized, which greatly reduces the production and assembly costs. Moreover, the interface dimensions of the three-position scheme on the bus side and the three-position scheme on the line side are consistent with the dimensions required by the state grid standardization, which meets the interchangeability of different equipment schemes. The three-position on the line side adopts a direct-acting three-position switch, which has a uniform electric field and does not require a high closing speed when grounding, which greatly improves the performance of the ring network cabinet product.

[0025] Of course, the present invention is not limited to the implementation methods in the above embodiments.

[0026] For example, in other embodiments, the isolating movable contact and the grounding movable contact of the three-position switch may share one movable contact.

[0027] For example, in other embodiments, the front and rear support plates of the circuit breaker module fixing frame can also be flat plates, the width of the front and rear support plates is greater than the height of the circuit breaker frame, the front and rear support plates have plate surface portions that extend upward and downward beyond the circuit breaker frame, and connection holes are provided on the extended plate surface portions, and the front and rear support plates are attached to the side walls of the box body and fixedly connected by fasteners.

[0028] For example, in other embodiments, the switch moving contact seat and the isolating static contact may also be provided independently of each other, and are not cast as one body.

[0029] Of course, the structures of the three-station module fixing frame and the circuit breaker module fixing frame are not limited to the structures in the above embodiments, and may have various modified structures, which are not listed here.
