Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of self-saturated reactor cores, and in particular to an elliptical self-saturated reactor core, a manufacturing device and a manufacturing method. Background Art

[0002] As a key component of the self-saturated reactor, the structure and performance of the self-saturated reactor core have an important impact on the overall performance of the reactor. The existing self-saturated reactor cores mostly adopt a circular ring structure, such as Figure 5 As shown, the material is mainly cold-rolled silicon steel sheets with a thickness of 0.27mm or 0.3mm, and is manufactured using a traditional winding process. Although this traditional toroidal core structure can meet the basic operating requirements of self-saturated reactors to a certain extent, it also has many limitations.

[0003] In terms of material usage, traditional toroidal cores use a relatively high amount of silicon steel sheets to achieve the required performance, resulting in high material costs and hindering economic optimization of the equipment. From a structural performance perspective, their strength is average, and they may not provide sufficient mechanical support and stability under certain operating conditions or installation requirements. Furthermore, due to their inherent shape and size, the core is relatively large and heavy, which not only increases the difficulty of transporting and installing the equipment but also limits the use of self-saturated reactors in applications with strict space and weight constraints.

[0004] In terms of operating performance, the losses and noise levels of traditional toroidal cores need to be further reduced. The operating losses of a core are proportional to its weight, and traditional toroidal structures still have room for improvement in loss control. Furthermore, noise levels also affect the environmental friendliness of self-saturated reactors. In noise-sensitive locations, such as substations near residential areas, the noise performance of traditional cores may be limited.

[0005] In summary, there is a need for improvement in the existing toroidal core of self-saturated reactors in terms of material utilization, structural performance, and operating performance. The market urgently needs a more optimized core structure to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings of traditional toroidal cores and improve the overall performance and application adaptability of self-saturated reactors.

[0012] A fixing device, which is provided on the winding machine and is used to fix the core inner mold;

[0013] The clamping device is arranged on the winding machine and is used to clamp the silicon steel sheet when it is coiled.

[0014] Furthermore, the core inner mold includes a square mold body, and two vertically arranged round steels are respectively provided on both sides of the square mold body; two vertically arranged fixing holes are axially symmetrically provided on the square mold body and pass through the square mold body; chamfers are provided on the four vertical sides of the square mold body.

[0015] Furthermore, the round steels on both sides of the square mold body are arranged opposite to each other.

[0016] A method for manufacturing a quasi-elliptical self-saturating reactor core comprises the following steps:

[0017] Step S1: hoisting the silicon steel sheet coil and placing it on the unloading platform;

[0018] Step S2: inserting the core inner mold into the fixing device on the top of the winding machine through the fixing hole, and fastening the core inner mold through the fixing device;

[0019] Step S3: unwinding the silicon steel sheet coil and adhering the outer end of the silicon steel sheet coil to the core inner mold with a non-stick tape;

[0020] Step S4: starting the winding machine to wind the silicon steel sheet onto the core inner mold;

[0021] Step S5: When the thickness of the silicon steel sheet coil on the core inner mold reaches the required value, the silicon steel sheet coil is cut and then fixed at the outer end of the silicon steel sheet coil using a resistance welding machine;

[0022] Step S6: Loosen the fixing device, remove the core inner mold and the silicon steel sheet coil wound on the core inner mold, and place them into an annealing furnace for annealing;

[0023] Step S7: After annealing and cooling, the core inner mold is removed, and the inner end of the wound silicon steel sheet coil is fixed by electric welding using a resistance welding machine;

[0024] Step S8: placing the wound silicon steel sheet coil into a vacuum tank for evacuation, and then performing pressure dipping; after the dipping is completed, taking it out and drying it to complete the production of the elliptical self-saturated reactor core.

[0025] Furthermore, when the silicon steel sheet coil is wound, the wound silicon steel sheet coil is compressed by a compression device, and the winding speed and tension are controlled during the winding process.
