The described embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments of this invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this invention. The invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0025] This invention provides an electrical fire simulation experimental device for energized wires, including a power supply 1, a sliding rheostat 2, a mounting bracket, an experimental energized wire 3, and a sensor; the sensor is used to collect experimental data during the experiment, and the power supply 1, the sliding rheostat 2, and the experimental energized wire 3 are connected in series.
[0026] The mounting frame includes a balance 4, which is used to measure the mass change of the experimental current-carrying wire 3 during the experiment. Two mounting bases 5 are fixedly connected to the top of the balance 4. Each mounting base 5 has a slidably fitted column 6, and each column 6 has a wire fixing mechanism fixedly installed on it. The experimental current-carrying wire 3 is detachably mounted on the column 6 through the wire fixing mechanism. An insulation cutting mechanism is fixedly installed on one column 6, used to cut off the bottom connection point of the experimental current-carrying wire 3. The power supply 1 is electrically connected to two adjacent connection points of the experimental current-carrying wire 3 through the two wire fixing mechanisms. A wire-changing mechanism is fixedly installed on the other column 6, used to replace the experimental current-carrying wire 3 connected in series with the power supply 1. Both wire fixing mechanisms are located between the insulation cutting mechanism and the wire-changing mechanism.
[0027] Furthermore, to facilitate the fixing of the experimental energized wire 3 and ensure circuit continuity, the wire fixing mechanism includes a support block 7 fixedly connected to the column 6. Two guide posts 8 are fixedly connected to the top of the support block 7. A pressure block 9 is slidably sleeved on the guide post 8. An opening for the experimental energized wire 3 to pass through is opened at the bottom of the pressure block 9. A spring 10 is sleeved on the guide post 8. The spring 10 is located above the pressure block 9. The two ends of the spring 10 are fixedly connected to the top of the guide post 8 and the top of the pressure block 9, respectively. A power connection component is fixedly connected to the top of the support block 7. The experimental energized wire 3 is electrically connected to the power supply 1 through the power connection component.
[0028] Furthermore, to avoid the possibility of circuit disconnection, the power connection component includes a metal rod 11 fixedly connected to the top of the support block 7. The central axis of the metal rod 11 is perpendicular to the direction of the opening. A groove is provided at the bottom of the pressure block 9, and the metal rod 11 is adapted to the groove. A metal sheet 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the opening at the bottom of the pressure block 9, and both ends of the metal sheet 12 are in contact with the metal rod 11.
[0029] Furthermore, to facilitate the adjustment of the installation position of the support block 7 and change the tilt state of the experimental power-carrying wire 3, several threaded holes 13 are equally spaced along the vertical direction on the column 6. Bolts are connected to the internal threads of the threaded holes 13, and the support block 7 is fixedly installed on the column 6 by bolts.
[0030] Furthermore, to ensure that the circuit remains connected when the experimental energized wire 3 is used continuously, the insulation removal mechanism includes a mounting block 14 fixedly connected to the column 6. A fixing block 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting block 14. The fixing block 15 has an inverted U-shaped structure and a horizontal through hole. A first telescopic rod 16 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting block 14. A scraper 17 is fixedly connected to the top of the first telescopic rod 16 and extends into the horizontal through hole.
[0031] Furthermore, to achieve automatic replacement of the experimental energized wire 3, the wire-changing mechanism includes a second telescopic rod 18 fixedly connected to the column 6. A U-shaped connecting plate 19 is fixedly connected to the end of the second telescopic rod 18. A lead screw 20 is rotatably connected between the two ends of the U-shaped connecting plate 19. The two ends of the lead screw 20 are respectively provided with positive and negative threads. A motor 21 is fixedly connected to the U-shaped connecting plate 19. The output shaft of the motor 21 is fixedly connected to one end of the lead screw 20. Both ends of the lead screw 20 are threadedly connected to clamping plates 22. The bottom end of the clamping plate 22 is slidably connected to the U-shaped connecting plate 19. A sliding rod 23 is provided above the lead screw 20. The two ends of the sliding rod 23 are respectively fixedly connected to the two ends of the U-shaped connecting plate 19. The clamping plate 22 is slidably sleeved on the sliding rod 23. The experimental energized wire 3 is set between the two clamping plates 22 and between the lead screw 20 and the sliding rod 23.
[0032] Furthermore, to prevent slippage between the experimental power-conducting wire 3 and the clamp 22 during the replacement of the experimental power-conducting wire 3, which could lead to a disconnection of the circuit, anti-slip pads are fixedly installed on opposite sides of both clamps 22.
[0033] Furthermore, the experimental data included temperature, dust particles, and the insulation state of the experimental conductive wire 3.
[0034] The electrical fire simulation experimental device for energized wires provided by this invention operates on the following principle: The energized wire 3 used in the experiment is a relatively long single wire. During the first experiment, the insulation layer at the connection point of the energized wire 3 is manually removed. Then, the energized wire 3 is installed onto the column 6 in sequence through the insulation layer removal mechanism, two wire fixing mechanisms, and the wire changing mechanism. The energized wire 3 is then connected to the power supply 1 and the sliding rheostat 2, and the experiment can then be carried out. During the experiment, the experimental data is collected using sensors.
[0035] When the insulation layer of a section of experimental conductive wire 3 used in the current experiment melts and becomes unusable, the motor 21 drives the two clamping plates 22 to move relative to each other, clamping the conductive wire 3. Then, the second telescopic rod 18 is extended, pulling the conductive wire 3 to move. During the movement, the time interval between the raising and lowering of the first telescopic rod 16 is controlled, allowing the scraper 17 to scrape out two circuit connection points on the conductive wire 3. When the second telescopic rod 18 reaches its maximum length, the two new connection points on the conductive wire 3 correspond to the two wire fixing mechanisms, forming a circuit connection. When the conductive wire 3 moves, the pressure block 9 can be slightly raised to allow the conductive wire 3 to pass through normally. After the second telescopic rod 18 stops extending, the metal rod 11 on the support block 7 and the metal plate 12 on the pressure block 9 ensure the connection with the connection points of the conductive wire 3, guaranteeing circuit continuity. A take-up device can be installed on one side of the wire-changing mechanism to facilitate the take-up of the experimental energized wire 3 after the experiment.
[0036] The electrical fire simulation experiment device for energized wires provided by this invention eliminates the need for manual replacement of the energized wires 3 during the simulation experiment, simplifying operation and improving experimental efficiency.
[0037] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
