Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of devices for maintaining overhead line spacing, and in particular to a double-split sub-line spacer for a transmission line. Background Art
[0002] Split conductors are a method of laying conductors for high-voltage or ultra-high-voltage transmission lines to suppress corona discharge and reduce line reactance. Each phase is composed of several smaller-diameter sub-conductors, separated by a specified distance. Double-split conductors, consisting of two sub-conductors, are commonly used on 220 kV transmission lines.
[0003] Because the two sub-conductors of a double-split conductor are very close to each other, they often vibrate under the influence of wind. Under special meteorological conditions and terrain, the conductors will experience rare and large jumps, commonly known as galloping, which can cause conductor mixing and air insulation breakdown. In severe cases, it can cause damage to line insulators, hardware, crossarms or pole tower components. Therefore, between the sub-conductors of the double-split conductor, spacers must be used to separate the conductors to suppress the mutual galloping between the sub-conductors.
[0004] Existing double-split conductor spacers require manual installation at height. This high-altitude work poses significant safety risks and requires power outages, which can have significant impacts. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a double-split rigid spacer that can be quickly installed and can be installed unmanned at height. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of this, the present application provides a double-split sub-line spacer for a transmission line, which can be tightened in both directions with just one bolt with a self-locking function. It has a simple structure and is easy to operate. If used in conjunction with corresponding installation tools, it can realize unmanned live-line installation at high altitude.
[0006] According to one aspect of the present application, an embodiment provides a double-split sub-line spacer for a power transmission line, comprising:

[0033] Example:
[0034] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 According to one aspect of the present application, an embodiment provides a double-split sub-line spacer for a power transmission line, comprising:
[0035] The plate-like spacer bar body 1 has two opposite hooks on the same side at both ends, which is usually made of stainless steel, aluminum alloy or nickel-plated steel plate. The length is usually 460-500mm and the width is 80-120mm. A large bolt through hole is provided in the center of the plate-like spacer bar body 1 for the bolt 5 to pass through the plate-like spacer bar body. The diameter of the bolt through hole can allow the M20 or M18 bolt 5 to pass through, and the hooks on both sides are semicircular.
[0036] The multiple guides are restrained on the plate-shaped spacer body 1, and the movable clamping blocks 2 are clamped / released by moving relative / toward each other with the length direction of the plate-shaped spacer body 1 as the first direction.
[0037] The movable clamping block 2 includes a movable clamping block body 21 and a connecting base plate 22. The movable clamping block body 21 is fixed on the connecting base plate 22. The front end of the movable clamping block body 21 has an arc-shaped groove. The connecting base plate 22 is provided with an ear plate hingedly connected to the push rod 3.
[0038] In another embodiment, the movable clamping block body 21 and the connecting base plate 22 of the movable clamping block 2 are integrally provided.
[0039] The multiple guide restraints of the movable clamp 2 include a first restraint guide rod assembly 7 and a second restraint limit clip 8 .
[0040] The first-weight restraint guide rod assembly 7 includes a guide rod 72 and a guide slider 71. The guide slider 71 is fixedly arranged on the surface of the hook side of the plate-like spacer rod body 1. The guide rod 72 slides through the guide slider 71 in the first direction. One end of the guide rod 72 is fixedly connected to the connecting base plate 22 of the movable clamp 2. There are two guide rods 72, one end of which is fixedly connected to the connecting base plate 72 in parallel.
[0041] The second-level restraint limit clip 8 includes two clips arranged in a mirror-symmetrical manner. The clips are fastened to the connecting base plate 22 of the movable clamping block 2 through fasteners. The clips can be slidably clamped on the side of the plate-like spacer rod body 1.
[0042] A push rod 3 is connected to the movable clamping block 2 and pushes / pull the movable clamping block to move. The push rod 3 is made of metal with good rigidity, and its cross-sectional shape will not bend or deform during the pushing process.
[0043] The nut lifting block 4 is hingedly connected to the push rod 3, and the nut lifting block 4 is restrained from rotating.
[0044] The nut lifting block 4 is provided with an internal threaded through hole that cooperates with the bolt 5. The nut lifting block 4 has a hinge hole that is hinged to the push rod 3. There are one or two intersection holes. If there is one, the intersection hole intersects with the internal threaded through hole. If there are two, the axes of the internal threaded through holes are symmetrical to each other. The connecting part can be kept at a certain distance from the axis of the internal threaded through hole to shorten the length of the push rod 3.
[0045] The anti-rotation restraint of the nut lifting block 4 is two anti-rotation plates 10 arranged on both sides of the bolt through hole of the plate-shaped spacer rod body. The two anti-rotation plates 10 clamp the nut lifting block 4 to prevent the nut lifting block 4 from rotating during the tightening of the bolt 5.
[0046] The nut lifting block 4 and the anti-rotation plate 10 are provided with mutually cooperating guide grooves and guide ridges, which allow the nut lifting block 4 to further rise and fall smoothly in the second direction during the tightening of the bolt 5 and prevent rotation.
[0047] The bolt 5 is provided with a flat washer and an elastic washer or a self-locking washer to enhance the self-locking property of the bolt 5 and prevent the bolt 5 from loosening.
[0048] A coil spring 6 is passed through the bolt 5 between the plate-like spacer body 1 and the nut lifting block 4. When the nut lifting block 4 rises, the coil spring 6 can be compressed. When the coil spring 6 is compressed to the limit, the nut lifting block 4 can no longer rise, thereby limiting the movable clamp 2, thereby preventing the electric wrench from continuously tightening during the lifting process using a drone, causing the hook tops at both ends of the plate-like spacer body 1 to be deformed or bent, thereby damaging the double-split sub-line spacer of a power transmission line of the present invention.
[0049] In another specific embodiment, a bolt anti-loosening assembly is provided on the anti-rotation plate 10 and the bolt 5, and the bolt anti-loosening assembly includes a ratchet and a pawl.

[0051] In another specific embodiment, the plate-shaped spacer body 1 is provided with lifting holes on both sides of the large bolt through hole, and the lifting holes are hooked by a special lifting device to achieve lifting.
[0052] The present invention relates to a double-split sub-conductor spacer for a power transmission line. When in use, the hooks at both ends of the plate-shaped spacer body 1 hook the two sub-conductors of the double-split conductor. The bolt 5 is tightened with a tool to allow the movable top block 2 to move toward the semicircular hook until the sub-conductors are clamped and fixed to the double-split conductor.
[0053] The double-split sub-line spacer for a power transmission line of the present invention can be tightened in both directions with only one bolt 5 , has a simple structure and is easy to operate. If used in conjunction with corresponding installation tools, it can be installed by unmanned live-line operation at high altitude.
[0054] The above examples are used to illustrate the present invention, which are only used to help understand the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make several simple deductions, modifications or substitutions based on the concept of the present invention.
