Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of transformer testing technology, and in particular to a transformer oil sample collection device and system. Background Technology
[0002] The author conducted a search using the formula (TACD = (transformer AND oil storage tank AND (piston OR moving core))) and obtained the following closest existing technical solutions.
[0003] The authorization announcement number is CN115040808B, and the name is "An Immersion Fire Extinguishing Device for High-Voltage Bushings of Ultra-High Voltage Transformers." The main components include a gas extinguishing unit, a cooling water circulation unit, a hydraulic cylinder power unit, an emergency oil drainage unit, and a control unit. When a fire occurs in the high-voltage bushing, the extinguishing sleeve rises under the action of the hydraulic cylinder, forming a relatively sealed space outside the high-voltage bushing. Gas nozzles installed inside the high-voltage bushing continuously spray gas to extinguish the fire. Cooling water circulates from top to bottom through spirally arranged water pipes inside the high-voltage bushing, carrying away most of the heat generated by the fire. After the high-voltage bushing ruptures due to fire, its internal insulating oil can flow into the lower oil-gas storage chamber. After the insulating oil flame is extinguished, it is discharged into the emergency oil pool. The structure is reliable and can effectively extinguish fires in high-voltage bushings of ultra-high voltage transformers. Through the telescopic extinguishing sleeve, gas extinguishing unit, and cooling water circulation unit, it directly solves the problem of the difficulty in timely extinguishing of high-voltage bushing fires at their root.
[0004] The authorization announcement number is CN217114077U, and the name is "An Oil-Immersed Transformer with Welded High-Voltage Bushing Terminals". It includes a transformer body, with a hollow oil injection pipe vertically positioned at the top of the transformer body. One end of the oil injection pipe extends into the interior of the transformer body. Inside the oil injection pipe, a pipe-type oil injection tube with one sealed end is reciprocating up and down. A ring-shaped piston is fitted outside the oil injection pipe. The oil injection tube and piston are located on the transformer body and cooperate with each other. The oil injection tube is connected to an external oil pipe. Pressing down on the oil injection tube allows the opening on the tube to enter the interior of the transformer body. When the transformer body is nearly full of transformer oil, the piston, under the pressure of the transformer oil, drives the oil injection tube into the oil injection pipe, preventing transformer oil from entering the transformer body through the opening, thus achieving an automatic stop-filling function.
[0005] The authorization announcement number is CN109882456B, and the name is "An Oil Conveying Device". It includes a main pipeline, a drain pipe, a connecting pipe, a venting assembly, and a drive sleeve. The main pipeline, drain pipe, connecting pipe, and venting assembly are connected in a specific way to form an oil conveying pipeline path. The venting assembly performs evacuation and degassing operations within the pipeline, achieving directional oil conveying. The venting assembly only requires manual operation to provide power. The drive sleeve is connected to the venting assembly in a specific way; simply rotating the turntable on the drive sleeve can simultaneously drive at least one venting assembly to operate. This solves the problem that traditional oil pumping equipment cannot convey oil without power equipment or other energy supply. Furthermore, the oil conveying device described herein has high oil transfer efficiency, is portable, and easy to operate.
[0006] Based on the above three patent documents and existing technical solutions, the inventors analyze the existing technical solutions as follows.
[0007] The power grid company requires the transformer oil chromatography online monitoring device to perform oil sample testing every eight hours. However, severe transformer discharge accidents develop extremely rapidly, and the entire development process can be completed during the intervals between oil chromatography tests. This renders the most effective and sensitive detection method for partial discharge ineffective, and makes it impossible to trace any oil chromatography data during the fault development process. This results in the loss of core data in the accident analysis process, greatly affecting the analysis and tracing of the fault cause. Furthermore, when severe discharge defects exist inside the transformer, on-site oil sampling carries certain risks.
[0008] Existing technical issues and considerations:

[0116] Research and development process:
[0117] 1. Technical problems to be solved
[0118] Preserving transformer oil samples before a transformer discharge accident provides strong support for accident analysis and tracing.
[0119] When there are serious discharge defects inside the transformer, reduce the time for on-site personnel to take oil samples to ensure the personal safety of the operators.
[0120] 2 Technical Solution
[0121] like Figure 1 As shown, the oil outlet valve 4 and the oil inlet valve 5 are check valves installed in opposite directions.
[0122] Oil outlet valve 4 ensures that transformer oil can only flow from the transformer into oil storage tank 1.
[0123] Oil inlet valve 5 ensures that transformer oil can only flow into the transformer from oil storage tank 1.
[0124] like Figure 2 As shown, the electric push rod 3 is connected to the first movable core. The electric push rod 3 pushes the first movable core upward to inject transformer oil in the oil storage tank 1 into the transformer through the oil inlet valve 5; the electric push rod 3 pulls the first movable core downward to inject oil in the transformer into the oil storage tank 1 through the oil outlet valve 4.
[0125] The first movable core can slide up and down while maintaining a seal within the oil storage tank 1.
[0126] Ventilation holes are provided at the bottom of the oil storage tank 1 to ensure gas flow when the first movable core slides up and down.
[0127] Vent hole, also known as exhaust hole 6.
[0128] The moving core is the piston.
[0129] Operation process:
[0130] In the initial state, all oil storage tanks 1, the pipelines connecting oil storage tanks 1 to the transformer, the oil outlet valve 4, and the oil inlet valve 5 are filled with transformer oil.
[0131] Oil storage process:
[0132] S1 electric push rod 3 pushes the first movable core to inject old oil from oil storage tank 1 into the transformer. The electric push rod 3 increases its pushing force and automatically stops pushing.
[0133] S2 electric push rod 3 pulls the second movable core to draw fresh transformer oil sample from the transformer into the oil storage tank 1.
[0134] Repeat steps S1-S2 to ensure that the old oil in oil storage tank 1, oil outlet valve 4, oil inlet valve 5 and pipeline is completely drained, and the oil storage tank 1 is filled with fresh oil samples.
[0135] n identical structures can be installed on the transformer, with the same operating procedures and equal time intervals between operations. For example, using 11 identical structures, the first structure collects fresh oil samples at 5 min, 65 min, and 125 min; the second structure collects fresh oil samples at 10 min, 70 min, and 130 min; the third structure collects fresh oil samples at 15 min, 75 min, and 135 min; ...; the tenth structure collects fresh oil samples at 50 min, 110 min, and 170 min; and the eleventh structure collects fresh oil samples at 55 min, 115 min, and 175 min.
[0136] This ensures that at any given time, the syringe can retain 11 oil samples taken every 5 minutes within one hour of the incident.
[0137] The number of structures can be increased sufficiently.
[0138] The sampling frequency of insulating oil can be adjusted by controlling different sampling times of the equipment.
[0139] 3. Beneficial effects
[0140] This ensures that at any given time, the syringe can retain 11 oil samples taken every 5 minutes within one hour of the incident.
[0141] The number of structures can be increased sufficiently.
[0142] The sampling frequency of insulating oil can be adjusted by controlling different sampling times of the equipment.
[0143] Oil chromatographic analysis was performed on four oil samples taken at different times. By observing the changes in fault characteristic gases, the development of internal faults in the transformer was inferred.
[0144] After this application had been running internally for a period of time, the beneficial aspects reported by on-site technicians were:
[0145] The transformer oil sampling device includes a controller, an oil storage tank, a piston, an electric actuator, an oil outlet valve, and an oil inlet valve. An exhaust port is provided in the oil storage tank. The piston and electric actuator are located inside the oil storage tank. The oil outlet valve and oil inlet valve are mounted on the oil storage tank. The electric actuator is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the oil storage tank, and its free end is fixedly connected to the piston. The piston is slidably connected to the inner wall of the oil storage tank. The piston is used to obtain oil from the transformer or push oil back to the transformer. The oil outlet valve connects the transformer and the oil storage tank, ensuring that transformer oil flows only from the transformer into the oil storage tank. The oil inlet valve connects the transformer and the oil storage tank, ensuring that transformer oil flows only from the oil storage tank into the transformer. The control terminals of the controller, the electric actuator, the oil outlet valve, and the oil inlet valve are electrically connected. The oil storage tank, piston, electric actuator, oil outlet valve, and oil inlet valve form a sampling unit. Through the controller, oil storage tank, piston, electric actuator, oil outlet valve, and oil inlet valve, the device collects oil samples accurately and safely.
[0146] Currently, the technical solution of this invention has undergone pilot testing, which is a small-scale trial of the product before large-scale mass production. After the pilot testing was completed, a user survey was conducted on a small scale, and the survey results showed that user satisfaction was high. Now, preparations have begun for the formal production and industrialization of the product (including intellectual property risk warning surveys).
