[0003] The existing mutual inductor increases sealing ring on the shell of the exposed iron core section periphery to prevent water or air from entering the iron core section, thereby preventing rust. However, the water vapor in the air can still enter the mutual inductor, and under the action of the sealing ring, the water vapor in the mutual inductor is not easy to discharge, resulting in more and more water vapor in the mutual inductor, and the iron core section is prone to rust, which leads to poor conversion accuracy and stability of the mutual inductor, and even cannot work normally, resulting in negative effect of the sealing ring, and the sealing ring directly contacts with the iron core, and the heat generated by the working of the iron core is easy to cause the sealing ring to be easily aged, so that its function is lost.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a mutual inductor with waterproof structure design, which adopts the following technical scheme: including an upper shell, a lower shell, an upper iron core located in the upper shell and a lower iron core located in the lower shell, further comprising an upper barrier sheet sleeved outside the upper iron core and a lower barrier sheet sleeved outside the lower iron core, a fixed sealing ring is arranged outside the upper barrier sheet, the lower barrier sheet is connected with a movable sealing ring through a heat expansion body, and the movable sealing ring is located outside the fixed sealing ring.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] The following will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figs. 1-3 The application will be further described in detail.
[0033] Example 1
[0034] With reference to the accompanying drawings, Figs. 1-3 The application discloses a mutual inductor with a waterproof structure design, which comprises an upper shell 1, a lower shell 2, an upper core 3 located in the upper shell 1 and a lower core 4 located in the lower shell 2. The core of the embodiment can adopt a common horseshoe shape, and the end face is rectangular. The upper core 3 is sleeved with an upper barrier sheet 5 outside, and the lower core 4 is sleeved with a lower barrier sheet 6 outside. The upper barrier sheet 5 is connected between the upper core 3 and the upper shell 1 through a reinforcing rib 10, and the lower barrier sheet 6 is connected between the lower core 4 and the lower shell 2 through a reinforcing rib 10, so as to realize the connection of the upper barrier sheet 5 and the lower barrier sheet 6 and guarantee the support strength of the upper barrier sheet 5 and the lower barrier sheet 6.
[0035] The upper barrier sheet 5 is provided with a fixed sealing ring 7 outside, the lower barrier sheet 6 is connected with a movable sealing ring 9 through a heat expansion body 8, and the movable sealing ring 9 is located outside the fixed sealing ring 7. The upper barrier sheet 5, the lower barrier sheet 6 and the fixed sealing ring 7 all adopt a rectangular shape same as that of the upper core 3 and the lower core 4,
[0036] When the movable sealing ring 9 does not expand normally under the heat expansion body 8, the movable sealing ring 9 is cross-laminated with the fixed sealing ring 7, that is, when the temperature inside the mutual inductor is not high, the movable sealing ring 9 and the fixed sealing ring 7 can play a sealing role and play a waterproof and dustproof role. The upper barrier sheet 5 and the lower barrier sheet 6 are not in contact with each other at one end close to each other. The upper barrier sheet 5 and the lower barrier sheet 6 are not in contact with each other at one end close to each other. The through slot 501 provides a channel for heat generated by the core in the shell to be discharged. The barrier sheet can avoid the direct contact of the sealing ring with the core, and the one end close to each other of the upper barrier sheet 5 and the lower barrier sheet 6 also reserves a channel for heat to be discharged.
[0037] In addition, the upper shell 1 is uniformly provided with a plurality of wiring sealing sleeves 11 to guarantee the sealing property of the wiring.
[0038] Working principle: In overcast, rainy days or at night when the temperature is not high, the temperature inside the mutual inductor will not be too high due to its own heat dissipation effect. At this time, the movable sealing ring 9 and the fixed sealing ring 7 intersect and fit, which plays a waterproof and dustproof role, and achieves the effect of the existing conventional direct application of the sealing ring. When the temperature is high, the mutual inductor cannot dissipate heat, and the temperature inside the mutual inductor will reach the expansion temperature requirement of the heat expansion body 8. At this time, the heat expansion body 8 will expand to drive the movable sealing ring 9 away from the fixed sealing ring 7. Under the action of the heat dissipation channel at the end where the through slot 501, the upper barrier piece 5 and the lower barrier piece 6 are close to each other, the heat inside the mutual inductor will be dissipated when the movable sealing ring 9 is opened. Not only can the heat be effectively dissipated, but also the water vapor accumulated in the mutual inductor can be discharged, solving the problem that the water vapor in the mutual inductor is not easy to discharge, which causes the water vapor in the mutual inductor to increase, the cross section of the iron core is easy to be damp and rust, which causes the mutual inductor to change the precision and stability, and even cannot work normally. When the temperature decreases, the heat expansion body 8 is not much affected by the temperature environment, and the volume returns to normal, and the movable sealing ring 9 and the fixed sealing ring 7 continue to intersect and fit.
[0039] Example two
[0040] With reference to Figs. 1-2 , based on the same concept as the above embodiment one, the mutual inductor with a waterproof structure design further comprises a wedge surface 12 at the end where the fixed sealing ring 7 and the movable sealing ring 9 are close to each other, and the wedge surface 12 of the fixed sealing ring 7 faces the wedge surface 12 of the movable sealing ring 9. When the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2 are buckled, under the action of the wedge surface 12 at the end where the fixed sealing ring 7 and the movable sealing ring 9 are close to each other, the fixed sealing ring 7 and the movable sealing ring 9 can be inserted and kept close to each other, ensuring the sealing effect.
[0041] Example three
[0042] With reference to Fig. 2 , based on the same concept as the above embodiment one, the mutual inductor with a waterproof structure design further comprises a heat expansion body 8 including a cylinder body 801, a telescopic rod 802 inserted into the cylinder body 801, one end of the telescopic rod 802 connected with the movable sealing ring 9, the other end of the telescopic rod 802 abutting with an alcohol bag 803 arranged inside the cylinder body 801, and a spring 804 connected between the end of the telescopic rod 802 abutting with the alcohol bag 803 and the inner wall of the cylinder body 801 away from the alcohol bag 803. A heat conduction block 805 is embedded at the end of the cylinder body 801 away from the telescopic rod 802, one side of the heat conduction block 805 abuts with the alcohol bag 803, and the other side of the heat conduction block 805 contacts with the lower iron core 4 through the lower barrier piece 6.
[0043] The heat-conducting block 805 can quickly transfer the heat in the transformer to the alcohol bag 803, so that the alcohol bag 803 can expand or return to the initial state according to the internal temperature of the transformer. When the heat in the transformer is not dissipated and reaches a certain temperature, the alcohol bag 803 will expand to drive the movable sealing ring 9 at one end of the telescopic rod 802 away from the fixed sealing ring 7, so as to realize the air circulation between the inside and outside of the transformer. Due to the large pressure in the transformer, when the movable sealing ring 9 is opened, the heat in the transformer will be discharged together with the moisture in the transformer, and when the temperature decreases, the fixed sealing ring 7 returns to adhere to the movable sealing ring 9 under the action of the spring 804.
[0044] The above are preferred embodiments of the present application, which do not limit the protection scope of the present application, so: any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, principle of the present application should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
