Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of surge arrester technology, specifically to a composite jacket series gap surge arrester. Background Technology
[0002] In power transmission and distribution lines, surge arresters are key equipment to ensure the safe and stable operation of the lines. Their main function is to limit the damage to line equipment caused by lightning overvoltage and switching overvoltage. With the continuous development of power grid construction, the environment in which the lines are located is becoming increasingly complex, which places higher demands on the performance, adaptability, and reliability of surge arresters.
[0003] Traditional surge arresters have many limitations in terms of structure and performance. Regarding installation adaptability, many surge arresters use fixed-angle brackets, which cannot flexibly adjust the angle according to different line routes and installation environments. This can easily lead to installation interference or insufficient protection range in complex power grid scenarios, affecting the protection effect. Furthermore, their installation structures are mostly monolithic designs, making pre-installation and assembly cumbersome, increasing the time and difficulty of high-altitude operations.
[0004] In terms of protection performance, the connection protection structure of traditional surge arresters is relatively simple, often relying solely on a single sealing method for waterproofing and dustproofing. During long-term use, this type of protection is prone to seal failure due to factors such as conductor vibration and changes in ambient temperature, allowing moisture and dust to penetrate the connection, causing a decline in insulation performance and consequently affecting the service life and operational reliability of the surge arrester.

[0032] See attached document Figures 1-7 A composite-jacketed series gap surge arrester includes an adjustable bracket 1, on which arrester bodies 2 and insulators 3 are installed at intervals. The adjustable bracket 1 is used to adjust the tilt angle of the arrester bodies 2 and insulators 3. The top of the arrester body 2 is connected to a bolt-type hook current-carrying clamp 5 via an arrester lead wire. The bolt-type hook current-carrying clamp 5 is securely connected to an insulated conductor 4. The top of the insulator 3 is connected to the insulated conductor 4. A waterproof cover 6 is fitted over the connection between the insulator 3 and the insulated conductor 4. The arrester body 2 is composed of zinc oxide resistor sheets with excellent volt-ampere characteristics, bonded in series, which has the advantages of good protection characteristics and large current carrying capacity. The insulating jacket of the arrester body 2 is made of a silicone rubber composite jacket that is resistant to climate change, electrical corrosion, and pollution.
[0033] The adjustable bracket 1 includes a U-shaped bracket 11. The two sides of the open end of the U-shaped bracket 11 are rotatably connected to one end of the rotating arm 14 through a central bolt assembly 16. The rotating arm 14 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 15. The locking bolt assembly 17 passes through the arc-shaped groove 15 and is threadedly connected to the U-shaped bracket 11. A mounting bracket 12 is connected between the two rotating arms 14. A mounting bracket 23 is provided on the mounting bracket 12. The mounting bracket 12 is used to install the surge arrester body 2, and the mounting bracket 23 is used to install the insulator 3.
[0034] The waterproof cover 6 includes an upper cover 61 and a lower cover 62. The upper cover 61 and the lower cover 62 are fastened together to form a cavity for accommodating the connection between the insulator 3 and the insulated wire 4. The adjacent surfaces of the upper cover 61 and the lower cover 62 are provided with through grooves 63 for the insulated wire 4 to pass through. The end of the lower cover 62 away from the upper cover 61 is provided with an installation groove 610 for installing the insulator 3.
[0035] A second sealing block 65 is provided on the end face of the upper cover 61 near the lower cover 62 and close to the through groove 63. A first sealing block 64 is provided on the end face of the lower cover 62 near the upper cover 61 and away from the through groove 63. A first sealing groove is provided on the upper cover 61 to cooperate with the first sealing block 64. A second sealing groove is provided on the lower cover 62 to cooperate with the second sealing block 65. The first sealing block 64 is embedded in the first sealing groove to achieve a sealing fit. The second sealing block 65 is embedded in the second sealing groove to achieve a sealing fit.
[0036] The upper cover 61 of the waterproof cover 6 is provided with buckle plates 66 on both sides, and the buckle plates 66 are provided with slots 69. The lower cover 62 is provided with a connecting groove 67, and a connecting protrusion 68 is provided in the connecting groove 67 to engage with the slot 69. The upper cover 61 and the lower cover 62 are fastened together by the cooperation of the buckle plates 66, the connecting groove 67, the connecting protrusion 68 and the slot 69.
[0037] A sealing gasket 611 is provided in the through groove 63 after the upper cover 61 and the lower cover 62 are fastened together. The sealing gasket 611 is made of aging-resistant silicone rubber material, and the insulated wire 4 passes through the center of the sealing gasket 611 to achieve a seal.
[0038] Working principle:
[0039] The surge arrester body 2 and insulator 3 are fixed in the working position by the adjustable bracket 1. The locking bolt assembly 17 is loosened, and the rotating arm 14 is rotated around the center bolt assembly 16. The inclination angle of the two is adjusted by the arc groove 15 so that the surge arrester body 2, insulator 3 and insulated wire 4 form a preset gap. After the adjustment is completed, the locking bolt assembly 17 is tightened to fix the angle.
[0040] Under normal operating conditions, the surge arrester body 2 is electrically connected to the insulated conductor 4 through the bolt-type hook drain clamp 5. The insulator 3 supports the insulated conductor 4. The waterproof cover 6 covers the connection between the upper cover 61 and the lower cover 62 through the snap-fit structure of the snap plate 66 and the connecting protrusion 68. The sealing block 1 64, the sealing block 2 65 and the sealing gasket 611 form a multiple seal to prevent moisture and dust from entering.
[0041] Under normal operating conditions, the discharge gap acts as an isolation mechanism, separating the surge arrester body 2 from the system and preventing it from being subjected to continuous power frequency operating voltage and operational overvoltage surges in the system. When the line is struck by lightning, the series gap of the surge arrester breaks down and discharges, promptly releasing the lightning current and limiting the amplitude of the lightning overvoltage. After the lightning current has been released, the surge arrester body 2 restores its impedance and promptly cuts off the power frequency follow current when the power frequency AC crosses zero, preventing the insulated conductor 4 from breaking after a lightning strike and protecting the normal operation of the overhead insulated conductor 4.
[0042] The above-described embodiments are merely illustrative of certain implementations of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
