Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of grounding rods, and in particular to a grounding rod installation device. Background Art

[0002] National regulations require strict grounding grid quality for substations. Therefore, the grounding grid within a substation affects the lightning protection and grounding conductivity of the entire station. The quality of the grounding grid also affects the overall resistance data. Traditionally, ground rod installation involves using an excavator to press the rod into the soil, which can easily bend the rod, resulting in poor installation results and high installation costs. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to propose a grounding rod installation device, which aims to solve the problem that when installing the grounding rod in the existing way, the grounding rod is pressed into the soil by an excavator, which easily bends the grounding rod, resulting in poor installation effect and high installation cost.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides a ground rod installation device, including a base plate, a bracket, a gravity hammer and a driving mechanism, wherein the base plate is placed on the ground, the bracket is installed on the base plate and extends along the direction of gravity, the gravity hammer is slidably connected to the bracket and can slide relative to the bracket along the direction of gravity, one end of the ground rod is detachably connected to the gravity hammer, and the other end is against the soil on the ground, the driving mechanism is provided on the gravity hammer, and is used to vibrate and strike the gravity hammer so that the gravity hammer drives the ground rod to move along the direction of gravity to be inserted into the soil on the ground.

[0005] In one embodiment, a mounting hole is provided in the gravity hammer, and a relief opening corresponding to the mounting hole is provided in the base plate. One end of the grounding rod is detachably connected to the hole wall of the mounting hole, and the other end passes through the relief opening and is against the soil on the ground.

[0006] In one embodiment, the gravity hammer includes a first side and a second side arranged opposite to each other, the first side is located at the proximal end relative to the soil on the ground, and the second side is located at the distal end relative to the soil on the ground, the mounting hole connects the first side and the second side and passes through the center of the gravity hammer, and the driving mechanism is arranged on the second side and is used to vibrate and strike the gravity hammer.

[0007] In one embodiment, a mounting structure is provided on the second side, and the driving mechanism is mounted on the second side via the mounting structure.

[0008] In one embodiment, the mounting structure is a mounting frame, and a plurality of the mounting frames are provided and arranged around the center of the second side. The driving mechanism is installed on the second side through each of the mounting frames and is used to vibrate and knock the second side.

[0009] In one embodiment, two mounting frames are provided and are symmetrically arranged on the second side. The driving mechanism is two electric picks, and each electric pick is installed on each mounting frame in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0010] In one embodiment, the bracket includes a plurality of vertical poles and a plurality of fixed frames.

The fixed frames are spaced apart along the direction of gravity and are detachably connected to the vertical poles.

[0011] In one embodiment, there are four vertical poles and three fixed frames. The four vertical poles are arranged parallel to each other and distributed in four corners. Each fixed frame is quadrilateral and is provided with a fixing structure for detachable connection with each vertical pole.

[0014] The embodiments of the present invention have the following beneficial effects:

[0015] When the ground rod installation device of the present invention is used, the driving mechanism vibrates and strikes the gravity hammer. Under the repeated vibration and striking of the driving mechanism, the gravity hammer moves in the direction of gravity and drives the ground rod to move in the direction of gravity to install the ground rod in the soil. Since the driving mechanism vibrates and strikes the gravity hammer, the striking force generated by the driving mechanism does not directly act on the ground rod, and the single impact force of the driving mechanism is small, so it is not easy to bend the ground rod, so the installation effect is good and the installation cost is low. Since the gravity hammer is heavy, the gravity hammer uses its own gravity to cooperate with the vibration and striking force of the driving mechanism, thereby ensuring the installation efficiency of the ground rod.

[0025] See also Figures 1 to 3 The ground rod installation device of one embodiment includes a base plate 100, a bracket 200, a gravity hammer 300, and a driving mechanism 400. The base plate 100 is placed on the ground. The bracket 200 is installed on the base plate 100 and extends in the direction of gravity. The gravity hammer 300 is slidably connected to the bracket 200 and can slide relative to the bracket 200 in the direction of gravity. One end of the ground rod 10 is detachably connected to the gravity hammer 300, and the other end is against the soil on the ground. The driving mechanism 400 is provided on the gravity hammer 300 and is used to vibrate and strike the gravity hammer 300, so that the gravity hammer 300 drives the ground rod 10 to move in the direction of gravity and penetrate into the soil on the ground.

[0026] It is understandable that, when in use, the driving mechanism 400 vibrates and strikes the gravity hammer 300. Under the repeated vibration and striking of the driving mechanism 400, the gravity hammer 300 moves in the direction of gravity and drives the ground rod 10 to move in the direction of gravity, so as to install the ground rod 10 in the soil. Since the driving mechanism 400 vibrates and strikes the gravity hammer 300, the striking force generated by the driving mechanism 400 does not directly act on the ground rod 10, and the single impact force of the driving mechanism 400 is relatively small, so it is not easy to bend the ground rod 10, resulting in a better installation effect and lower installation cost. Since the gravity hammer 300 is heavy, the gravity hammer 300 uses its own gravity to cooperate with the vibration and striking force of the driving mechanism 400, thereby ensuring the installation efficiency of the ground rod 10.

[0027] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 3 A mounting hole 330 is provided in the gravity hammer 300, and an avoidance opening 110 corresponding to the mounting hole 330 is provided in the base plate 100. One end of the grounding rod 10 is detachably connected to the hole wall of the mounting hole 330, and the other end passes through the avoidance opening 110 and abuts against the soil on the ground. By installing the grounding rod 10 in the mounting hole 330, when the driving mechanism 400 vibrates and strikes the gravity hammer 300, the gravity hammer 300 moves in the direction of gravity and drives the grounding rod 10 to move toward the ground. The grounding rod 10 passes through the avoidance opening 110 and is installed in the soil.

[0028] For further information, see Figures 1 to 3A fastening mechanism is provided in the mounting hole 330 , and the fastening structure is used to detachably mount the grounding rod 10 in the mounting hole 330 to achieve a detachable connection between the grounding rod 10 and the gravity hammer 300 .

[0029] Specifically, the fastening mechanism is a retractable elastic member installed in the mounting hole 330 . The fastening mechanism also includes a motor, which drives the retractable elastic member to tighten or loosen the grounding rod 10 .

[0030] In one embodiment, the gravity hammer 300 includes a first side 310 and a second side 320 that are arranged opposite to each other. The first side 310 is located at the proximal end relative to the soil on the ground, and the second side 320 is located at the distal end relative to the soil on the ground. The mounting hole 330 connects the first side 310 and the second side 320 and passes through the center of the gravity hammer 300. The driving mechanism 400 is disposed on the second side 320 and is used to vibrate and strike the gravity hammer 300.

[0031] It can be understood that since the grounding rod 10 is installed at the center of the gravity hammer 300, the grounding rod 10 is evenly stressed, preventing one side of the grounding rod 10 from being bent due to excessive force. In addition, the driving mechanism 400 is installed on the second side 320 to facilitate the vibration and striking of the gravity hammer 300, so that the gravity hammer 300 moves along the direction of gravity.

[0032] Furthermore, the second side 320 is provided with a mounting structure 500 , and the driving mechanism 400 is mounted on the second side 320 via the mounting structure 500 , so that the connection between the driving mechanism 400 and the gravity hammer 300 is stable.

[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, the mounting structure 500 is a mounting frame 520, and a plurality of mounting frames 520 are provided and are arranged in a circle at the center of the second side 320. The driving mechanism 400 is installed on the second side 320 through each mounting frame 520 and is used to vibrate and knock the second side 320. Through the provision of multiple mounting frames 520, the connection between the driving mechanism 400 and the gravity hammer 300 is more reliable.

[0034] Preferably, the mounting structure 500 further includes a mounting portion 510, which is fixedly connected to a mounting frame 520, so that the drive mechanism 400 is stably mounted in the mounting structure 500. Specifically, the mounting portion 510 and the mounting frame 520 are an integrated structure, which is stable, easy to process, and has high processing efficiency and low processing cost.

[0035] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a plurality of connection slots are provided in the gravity hammer 300, and a plurality of connection holes adapted to the connection slots are provided in the mounting frame 520, and each connection slot is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with each connection hole. The grounding rod mounting device also includes a plurality of connecting members 600 adapted to the connection slots, and each connecting member 600 passes through each connection hole and is detachably connected to the slot wall of each connection slot.

[0036] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 3 There are two mounting frames 520, which are symmetrically arranged on the second side 320. The driving mechanism 400 is two electric picks, and each electric pick is installed on each mounting frame 520 in a one-to-one correspondence. By symmetrically arranging the two electric picks on the second side 320, the grounding rod 10 is evenly stressed to avoid bending, and the two electric picks work in cooperation with each other, which can improve the installation efficiency of the grounding rod 10.

[0037] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 3 The bracket 200 includes multiple vertical poles 210 and multiple fixed frames 220. The multiple vertical poles 210 are perpendicular to the base plate 100 and are arranged around the avoidance opening 110. The fixed frames 220 are distributed at intervals along the direction of gravity on the vertical poles 210 and are detachably connected to the vertical poles 210. The disassembled bracket 200 is easy to store and convenient for operators to carry to the work site for installation.

[0038] Specifically, there are four vertical poles 210 and three fixed frames 220. The four vertical poles 210 are arranged parallel to each other and distributed at four corners. Each fixed frame 220 is quadrilateral and is provided with a fixing structure for detachable connection with each vertical pole 210. Setting three fixed frames 220 can simplify the structure while ensuring the strength of the device, making it easier for operators to install.

[0039] Furthermore, a plurality of positioning protrusions are provided in the base plate 100, each positioning protrusion is provided with an external thread, each upright pole 210 is provided with a positioning groove, each positioning groove is provided with an internal thread adapted to the external thread, and the base plate 100 and each upright pole 210 are connected by threads.

[0040] Specifically, the vertical pole 210 is formed by three sections of support rods connected by threads, each fixed frame 220 is provided with a positioning hole, each support rod is provided with an abutment surface, the positioning hole passes through one end of the support rod, and each fixed frame 220 abuts against each abutment surface to achieve detachable connection of each part.

[0041] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 3The gravity hammer 300 is a cube, and the orthographic projection shape of the bracket 200 is adapted to the orthographic projection shape of the gravity hammer 300. The gravity hammer 300 is detachably connected to the bracket 200. By adapting the orthographic projection shape of the bracket 200 to the orthographic projection shape of the gravity hammer 300, the gravity hammer 300 can be easily installed on the bracket 200, and the gravity hammer 300 is detachably connected to the bracket 200, which further facilitates the portability of the grounding rod installation device.

[0042] Specifically, the grounding rod installation device also includes a slide rail, which is arranged on the bracket 200. The sliding direction of the slide rail is the direction of gravity. A slider adapted to the slide rail is provided in the gravity hammer 300, so that the sliding connection between the gravity hammer 300 and the bracket 200 is smoother.

[0043] Furthermore, if the contact length between the ground rod 10 and the soil is greater than 2.5 meters, the length of the bracket 200 can be set between 1 and 2 meters. This allows the driving mechanism 400 to drive the gravity hammer 300 to install the ground rod 10 in sections. This segmented installation of the ground rod 10 prevents the load-bearing arm at the front end of the ground rod 10 from being too large, which could cause the ground rod 10 to bend. Furthermore, the length of the bracket 200 can be set to 1 meter, 1.2 meters, 1.4 meters, 1.5 meters, 1.6 meters, 1.8 meters, or 2 meters.

[0044] The above disclosure is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and certainly cannot be used to limit the scope of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention are still within the scope of the present invention.
