Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of tubular busbar processing, in particular to a novel epoxy resin cast tubular busbar and a special processing device and method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Epoxy resin cast tubular busbars are high-voltage insulated busbars. Using an epoxy resin casting process, they form an integrated solid insulation layer on the conductor surface, resulting in high insulation, strong current-carrying capacity, and excellent environmental adaptability. They are primarily used in power systems (such as substations and nuclear power plants) to replace traditional cables or metal busbars, addressing issues such as insulation degradation and excessive capacitance and current. The existing tubular busbar processing technology is complex, with alternating insulation and shielding layers, low efficiency, and a long production cycle requiring 24 hours to produce the product. The product cannot be bent and has poor heat dissipation performance. The metal conductor layer and the resin layer are prone to cracking during hot and cold cycles, affecting the stability of electrical performance. The busbar per unit length is heavy, inconvenient to install, and is not flame retardant. In order to increase the current carrying capacity, the insulated tubular busbar must have a larger diameter. At this time, gravity can easily cause insulation eccentricity during extrusion. The extruded insulated tubular busbar is extruded first and then bent, which will cause the formed insulation to be stretched and squeezed. First, the bending radius is greatly limited, which is equivalent to applying stress on the insulation. Stretching will thin the insulation, while squeezing may cause air gaps. Second, prestressing will reduce the mechanical and performance of the material. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example
[0018] See also Figure 1 The new epoxy resin cast tubular busbar includes a tubular busbar, which is composed of a metal tube conductor 1, a conductor shielding layer 2, an insulating layer 3, an insulating shielding layer 4, a metal shielding layer 5, and a closed jacket 6. The components of the insulating layer 3 are 70-120 parts of bisphenol A epoxy resin, 1-2 parts of methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride, 3-6 parts of an active toughening agent, and 1-2 parts of an accelerator.
[0019] 70-120 parts of bisphenol A epoxy resin are used as the main material of the insulation layer, providing stable dielectric properties and high voltage resistance, reducing the risk of breakdown. The design of the conductor shielding layer 2 and the insulation shielding layer 4 effectively homogenizes the electric field, reduces local discharge, and extends the service life.

[0026] A novel method for processing epoxy resin cast tubular busbars comprises the following steps: S1. Select copper or aluminum tubes as conductors, clean and remove surface dust, polish the surface, and then apply coupling agent on the conductor surface; S2. First, seal and fix the copper tube with flanges on both sides, then wrap it with semi-conductive crepe paper. After wrapping, wrap the crepe paper again until it reaches 20mm, then heat shrink the semi-conductive heat shrink tube and prepare epoxy resin. S3.

[0027] When in use, the copper tube is placed on the surface of the conveyor belt 9, and the dust on the surface of the copper tube is cleaned by the streamer 11. The cleaned copper tube is placed between the first clamping ring 27 and the second clamping ring 26, and the second threaded rod 25 is screwed so that the first clamping ring 27 and the second clamping ring 26 can fix the two ends of the copper tube. The height of the copper tube can be adjusted to fit the polishing seat 15 by sliding the slider 16 and the support frame 10. The electric push rod 14 and the third motor 23 are connected to the external power supply. Starting the electric push rod 14 can push the distance between the two groups of first clamping rings 27 and the second clamping rings 26 to adjust so that copper tubes of different lengths can be clamped.
