Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of capacitor equipment and relates to a short-circuit discharge device for a polypropylene film capacitor. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the development of the economy, the market's requirements for product quality have become increasingly higher, which has posed a great challenge to the stability of the quality of polypropylene film capacitors.

[0003] The gold spraying process is a key process in the production process of polypropylene film capacitors. The gold spraying layer is connected to the thickened metal area on the polypropylene film surface of the capacitor element through the gold sprayed metal particles, and the lead wires are welded on the gold spraying layer to connect to the lead-out terminals on the capacitor end caps. Therefore, the quality of the gold spraying layer directly determines the quality of the connection between the capacitor element and the capacitor lead-out terminals, thereby affecting the quality of the polypropylene film capacitor. If the contact state between the gold spraying layer and the thickened metal area on the polypropylene film surface is poor, that is, there is a "false connection" phenomenon, the conventional AC withstand voltage test of the capacitor cannot be screened out, and the excessively high AC voltage in the test may reduce the withstand voltage of the film itself, affecting the stability of the quality of the polypropylene film capacitor product. In addition, if the capacitor with poor contact between the gold spraying layer and the thickened metal area on the polypropylene film surface is put into normal use, the contact loss of the capacitor will increase, and the heat generation will increase when the capacitor is powered on, which may easily lead to capacitor failure. The short-circuit discharge test uses a DC high-voltage power supply, which can not only effectively screen out capacitors with poor contact between the gold spraying layer and the thickened metal area on the polypropylene film surface, but also will not cause any damage to the polypropylene film surface. Therefore, short-circuit discharge test is an important means to detect the performance of polypropylene film capacitors.

[0004] At present, there are generally two types of short-circuit discharge test devices most commonly used on the market, one is a wire and the other is a copper electrode, but both of these test devices have great problems. Wire testing is unsafe and difficult to test, and copper electrodes are easy to spark and are also unsafe, and the contact state is uncertain, easy to damage, and easy to crush the capacitor lead end. In addition, since the above two test methods are both carried out in the air, it is easy to spark and weld the electrode, resulting in an uneven electrode surface. The contact resistance will be large and small during the test, which will also cause the current to be unstable during the test. Therefore, the above two test methods cannot meet the market's increasing demand for short-circuit discharge detection of polypropylene film capacitors. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the above problems, the present invention provides a short-circuit discharge device for a polypropylene film capacitor. The discharge device upgrades the original short-circuit discharge device with low safety and easy damage to a new short-circuit discharge device with high safety, high test accuracy, long service life, low cost and elastic contact electrodes for protecting the capacitor lead-out terminals from being crushed, so as to screen out products with hidden dangers of "false connection" between the gold spraying layer and the thickened metal area of ​​the polypropylene film in the polypropylene film capacitor, thereby ensuring the reliability of the long-term service life of the polypropylene film capacitor.

[0008] As a further improvement of the present invention, the first contact electrode and the second contact electrode have the same structure, wherein the first contact electrode includes a connecting nut, a fixed sleeve, a protective spring, and an electrode head. The protective spring is arranged in the inner hole of the fixed sleeve, and the electrode head passes through the inner hole of the protective spring. The upper end of the electrode head extends out from the hole at the top of the fixed sleeve and is fixed by locking the connecting nut. The upper end of the protective spring is pressed against the top of the fixed sleeve, and the lower end of the protective spring is pressed against the step of the motor head.

[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, the fixing bracket is fixedly connected to the base plate by means of a first fixing nut, a second fixing nut and corresponding screws.

[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, the waist-shaped groove on the fixing bracket is respectively fixedly connected to the base plate with the first fixing nut, the second fixing nut and the corresponding screws.

[0011] The technical effect of the present invention is that the product of the present invention is provided with a vacuum interrupter, that is, a pair of electrodes (contacts) and other parts sealed in a vacuum are used to achieve the closing or disconnection of the circuit by virtue of the excellent insulation and arc extinguishing performance of the vacuum, and the arc can be quickly extinguished and the current can be suppressed after the power supply is cut off. The vacuum interrupter replaces the wire or copper electrode design used in the existing conventional short-circuit discharge device, and its unique vacuum design makes the contact state more stable, can instantly disconnect the circuit, and is safer and more reliable.

[0012] The vacuum arc extinguishing chamber provided in the product of the present invention protects the electrode in a vacuum medium, the arc is not exposed, the vacuum degree can reach above 1.33×10-3Pa, the insulation strength is extremely high, the arc is easy to extinguish, that is, the arc extinguishing ability is strong, so there will be no sparking phenomenon, and there will be no phenomenon of electrode welding after sparking, so the contact resistance value and current value during the test are both constant values, and the test accuracy is higher.

When the control circuit is energized, the contactor is closed, and the upper main contact connected in series with the current limiting resistor line is connected before the lower main contact, so as to suppress the inrush current. After completion, it is instantly disconnected and reset, during which the lower main contact enters normal operation, and the circuit is disconnected by the lower main contact, each performing its own duties. When the vacuum arc chamber is connected and operated, the short-circuit discharge device performs short-circuit discharge on the capacitor to be tested. At this time, the vacuum arc chamber is equivalent to a wire, and the power supply is short-circuited. At this time, excessive electric heat will be generated, and the temperature will rise rapidly, which may cause a fire. Therefore, an AC contactor is directly connected to the power supply. When the vacuum arc chamber is connected and operated, the circuit where the power supply is located is automatically disconnected to ensure the safety of the test.

[0015] The product of the present invention is provided with an elastic contact electrode, which is a combination design of a nut, a fixing sleeve, a protective spring and an electrode head, rather than a single copper electrode. The design of the protective spring on the electrode head can provide buffer protection when the contact electrode is connected to the capacitor to be measured, which can effectively prevent the terminals of the capacitor to be measured from being crushed, thereby reducing unnecessary waste caused by the crushing of the terminals of the capacitor to be measured and causing scrapping, and improving the production pass rate of polypropylene film capacitors.
