Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technology of bus bar or bus connection, and particularly to a bus bar connector. Background Art

[0002] The end bus bar is generally a power distribution device for the power consumption terminal composed of a copper conductor and an aluminum alloy shell. Through devices such as the matching plug-in box, the function of supplying power to specific equipment is realized. Especially for the power supply of network cabinets in data centers, the end bus bar power supply method has increasingly replaced the traditional power supply method of the header cabinet cable. This power supply method can provide a large power output capacity, has strong expansion ability, and saves valuable space resources after replacing the header cabinet, enabling users to deploy more network cabinets. It has become a trend to adopt the end bus bar power supply method in the construction of data centers.

[0003] The characteristics of the end bus bar are series supporting, commercial production, large capacity, short design and construction cycle, convenient installation and disassembly, non-combustible, safe and reliable, and long service life. The end bus bar products are applicable to the three-phase four-wire and three-phase five-wire power supply projects of network cabinets in data centers with an alternating current of 50 Hz, a rated voltage of 380 V, and a rated current usually of 250 A - 400 A. With the development of information technology, the application of the end bus bar is becoming more and more extensive, and at the same time, more requirements are put forward for this product.

[0004] First of all, the installation density of current servers and network devices is getting higher and higher, and the power demand is getting larger and larger. Therefore, the requirement for the rated current of the end bus bar is also higher, such as 1000 A; while the rated current of the current end bus bar products is usually 400 A, and some manufacturers can reach 630 A after improvement. The reason is that the main design difficulty of the end bus bar with large current lies in: 1. The electrodynamic force at large current usually causes the magnetic oscillation frequency to form a superimposed state, resulting in excessive noise; 2. Large current leads to a large amount of heat generation. The end bus bar is usually installed in the data machine room, and the requirement for temperature rise is higher than that of the usual compact bus bar. Therefore, good heat dissipation is required.

[0005] Secondly, the installation of the end busbar occupies the space at the top of the network cabinet. Usually, a mounting clearance of 800 mm or higher is required. At the same time, the conventional design of the dual busbars makes the installation space even narrower. Especially for some data centers with relatively low building storeys, the conventional end busbars may not be installed at all, which greatly limits the popularization of end busbars. To effectively reduce the volume, especially the height installation dimension, setting the output device on the side of the busbar is an effective solution. In this way, the space occupied by the output device will be in the horizontal direction, thus saving the precious vertical net height space. Therefore, the busbar is designed to be horizontally placed and horizontally lead out. Although the thickness of the busbar is only 5 mm, the length of the busbar is limited, and the primary busbars need to be connected section by section for use. The connection points of the busbar copper bars adopt different structures by different manufacturers, but usually occupy a large space, thus increasing the local dimension (mainly the thickness) of the busbar. As a result, the previous efforts to reduce the installation height of the busbar will be in vain due to the increase in the size at the connection points.

[0006] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a busbar connector with an ultra-thin installation height, easy to install, and supporting large currents, which is also one of the key technologies to reduce the installation height of the busbar at present. Summary of the Invention

[0057] Furthermore, gaps are equally spacedly opened on the inclined plate 32 and the contact pressure plate 33 of each elastic piece, so that the elastic piece presents a multi-finger structure. The inclined plate 32 and the contact pressure plate 33 of some elastic pieces extend or protrude beyond the two side edges of the upper pressure plate 1 and the lower pressure plate 2 in the transverse direction, so that the elastic piece group 3 presents a laterally extended or extended structure relative to the entire busbar connector.

[0058] The number of groups of the elastic piece group 3, that is, the number of layers of the elastic piece group, can be increased or decreased according to the actual current capacity requirements.

[0065] The locking mechanism 4 is one of a mechanical adjustment mechanism, a hydraulic adjustment mechanism, and an electromagnetic adjustment mechanism. Preferably, it is a mechanical adjustment mechanism, eliminating the need for auxiliary hydraulic and electrical mechanisms.

[0066] In one embodiment, referring to Figures 13 to 16 , the locking mechanism 4 is a lateral sliding and vertical locking mechanical adjustment mechanism. The lateral sliding and vertical locking mechanical adjustment mechanism includes a groove body 41, a pull rod 42, a plurality of lower pull buckles 43, and an adjustment screw 44. The plurality of lower pull buckles 43 are inserted into the groove body 41, and the pull rod 42 is slidably disposed in the groove body 41. The position of the pull rod 42 in the groove body 41 is adjusted by the adjustment screw 44, so as to adjust the relative distance between the groove body 41 and the lower pull buckles 43, thereby realizing the pressing and separation of the elastic sheet group 3 on the copper busbar 100 to be connected.

[0067] Among them, the groove body 41 includes a Π-shaped groove body 411 integrally formed by a groove bottom plate and two side plates extending perpendicularly from the side edges of the groove bottom plate. A plurality of upper pull claws 412 are formed by upward protrusions at intervals on the upper edges of the two side plates of the Π-shaped groove body 411. Groove bottom holes 413 for the lower pull buckles 43 to pass through are formed at intervals on the groove bottom plate. A groove cavity 414 for the pull rod 42 to slide is formed by surrounding the groove bottom plate and the side plates.

[0068] Among them, the pull rod 42 includes a pull rod body 421, a push-pull convex body 422 formed by upward protrusions at intervals on the upper surface of the pull rod body 421. A stop surface 424 at one end of each push-pull convex body 422 is perpendicular to the upper surface of the pull rod body 421, and a push-pull inclined surface 423 at the other end is inclined. A push-pull head 425 is formed by upward protrusions perpendicular to one end of the pull rod body 421. An adjustment screw hole 426 adapted to the adjustment screw 44 is formed on the outer end surface of the push-pull head 425.

[0069] Among them, each lower pull buckle 43 includes a pull buckle body 431 composed of a pull buckle top plate and pull buckle side plates extending perpendicularly from both ends of the pull buckle top plate. A pull buckle cavity 435 is formed by surrounding the pull buckle top plate and the pull buckle side plates. A pull buckle claw 432 is formed by extending downward along the lower end edge of the pull buckle side plate. A pull buckle baffle 433 is formed by upward extension at one side end of the pull buckle top plate.

[0070] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the pull buckle claw 432 of each lower pull buckle 43 is divided into a wide buckle claw and a narrow buckle claw by a pull buckle gap 434.

[0071] Furthermore, the locking mechanism 4 further includes a reinforcing buckle plate 45, and the reinforcing buckle plate 45 is buckled between two adjacent push-pull convex bodies 422 on the pull rod 42.

[0072] Among them, the adjusting screw 44 is preferably an internal hexagonal screw.

[0073] In this connector, the elastic piece group 3 is made of a good copper conductor material, and the others can be set as insulating materials.

[0074] Assembly adjustment: When the upper pressure plate 1, the lower pressure plate 2 and the locking mechanism 4 are assembled, the upper pull claw 412 passes through the locking through hole 34 of the elastic piece group 3 and the upper pressure hole 15 of the upper pressure plate 1 and then bends inward relatively. The buckle claw 432 passes through the locking through hole 34 of the elastic piece group 3 and the lower pressure hole 25 of the lower pressure plate 2 and then bends inward relatively, so as to limit the maximum pressing gap of the elastic piece group 3. The upper buckle plates 13 and the lower buckle plates 23 of the upper pressure plate 1 and the lower pressure plate 2 are assembled on the same end side, and the screw head of the adjusting screw 44 is arranged in the gap between the upper buckle plate 13 and the lower buckle plate 23. Specifically, the upper buckle plate 13 is arranged on the inner side, the lower buckle plate 23 is arranged on the outer side, the inner side surface of the screw head of the adjusting screw 44 abuts against the outer side surface of the upper buckle plate 13, and the screw rod of the adjusting screw 44 is screwed into the adjusting screw hole 426 of the pull rod 42 through the upper adjusting hole 16 of the upper buckle plate 13. By screwing the adjusting screw 44 from the lower adjusting hole 26 of the lower buckle plate 23, the pressing and loosening adjustment of the busbar connector can be realized.

[0075] Not shown in the figure, when adopting a hydraulic adjustment or an electromagnetic adjustment mechanism, although the cost increases and some space is lost, it is an implementation method of automatic operation. When performing hydraulic adjustment, a small hydraulic cylinder or a hydraulic bladder is arranged between or outside the upper pressure plate 1 and the lower pressure plate 2, and the gap between the two pressure plates is adjusted by the charging and discharging of hydraulic oil; similarly, when adopting an electromagnetic adjustment mechanism, a micro solenoid valve, an electric cylinder or a micro motor is used as a driving part, and the gap between the two pressure plates is adjusted to open and close through an intermediate transmission mechanism.

[0076] Through the connector of the present application, the structural volume can be miniaturized, and the thickness in the pressed state is only 21.3 mm, ensuring that the overall height of the busbar is small, and the minimum can be 200 mm.

[0077] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
