Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of mutual inductors, and in particular relates to a current mutual inductor. Background Art

[0002] The main function of a current transformer is to convert large currents in high-voltage circuits into small currents in low-voltage circuits for measurement by measuring instruments. It is widely used in power systems, especially high-voltage transmission and distribution systems.

[0003] Most current transformers are directly installed on the outside of the conductor. When current passes through the conductor, a small induced current will be generated in the current transformer due to electromagnetic induction. By measuring the induced current with a measuring instrument, the current in the conductor can be measured in real time.

[0004] Most existing current transformers do not have a structure to fix the wire. When the wire is energized and moves relative to the current transformer, the induced current will also change, which will affect the accuracy of the current measurement in the wire by the measuring instrument. This is particularly obvious when the wire size is small. Therefore, it is necessary to set a current transformer that can fix the wire, especially the small-sized wire, after installation. Summary of the invention

[0028] In addition to being used to indicate a position or location relationship, some of the above terms may also be used to indicate other meanings. For example, the term "on" may also be used to indicate a certain dependency or connection relationship in some cases. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of these terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0029] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, it is a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a current transformer, including a main housing 1, a main cover 2, and a positioning seat 3, wherein the main cover 2 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the main housing 1, and the positioning seat 3 is provided above the main housing 1 and is arranged in a ring shape. In this embodiment, the positioning seat 3 is provided with four, which are arranged at 90° intervals from each other, and horizontally extending positioning arms 31 are provided on both sides of the positioning seat 3, and vertically extending positioning blocks 33 are provided between the positioning arms 31, and a vertical first connecting hole 32 is provided on the positioning arm 31, and the positioning arm 31 is provided with a vertical first connecting hole 32. A horizontal second connecting hole 34 is provided on the positioning block 33, and a plurality of connecting columns 13 vertically passing through the first connecting hole 32 are fixedly provided on the top of the main shell 1, and a lower limit sleeve 5 and an upper limit sleeve 53 are also threadedly connected to the connecting column 13, wherein the lower limit sleeve 5 presses against the bottom of the positioning arm 31, and the upper limit sleeve 53 presses against the top of the positioning arm 31 to fix the positioning seat 3 on the connecting column 13, and a horizontal positioning rod 4 is threadedly connected in the second connecting hole 34, and the positioning rods 4 between the plurality of positioning seats 3 are also arranged in a ring shape.

[0030] A hole structure for the wire to pass through is provided at the center of the main shell 1. During installation, the lower limit sleeve 5 is first threadedly connected to the connecting column 13, and then the lower limit sleeve 5 is flexibly inserted into the first connecting hole 32. Then, the upper limit sleeve 53 is threadedly connected to the connecting column 13 and contacts with the positioning arm 31. The positioning seat 3 is fixed. After the positioning rod 4 has been threadedly connected to the second connecting hole 34, the positioning rod 4 is screwed in or out of the second connecting hole 34 according to the size of the wire. After multiple positioning rods 4 contact with the wire, the wire is fixed.

[0031] When the size of the wire is too small, the ends of the two adjacent positioning rods 4 will hinder each other after being screwed in, so that both sides cannot contact the wire, affecting the fixation of the wire. At this time, the upper limit sleeve 53 can be removed, and the vertical height of the positioning seat 3 can be changed by rotating the lower limit sleeve 5. Different positioning seats 3 make the positioning rods 4 staggered in the vertical direction, and the ends of the positioning rods 4 no longer hinder each other. In particular, since the positioning rods 4 spaced 180° apart do not hinder each other, the positioning rods 4 spaced 180° apart can be set to the same height, and the four positioning rods 4 form two groups of structures for clamping the wire.

[0032] like Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, a lower limit plate 51 and a protrusion 52 are respectively provided at the bottom and top of the lower limit sleeve 5. After the lower limit sleeve 5 is inserted into the first connecting hole 32, the lower limit plate 51 presses against the bottom of the positioning arm 31. The protrusion 52 is in the shape of a hexagonal prism and protrudes upward from the top of the lower limit sleeve 5 to the first connecting hole 32. An upper limit groove 54 is provided at the bottom of the upper limit sleeve 53. After the upper limit sleeve 53 is threadedly connected to the connecting column 13, it presses against the top of the positioning arm 31. At this time, the upper limit groove 54 covers the outer side of the protrusion 52. In particular, the outer side of the upper limit sleeve 53 is also in the shape of a hexagonal prism. Using a tool matching the upper limit sleeve 53 or the protrusion 52, the upper limit sleeve 53 and the protrusion 52 can be controlled to be vertically screwed into the connecting column 13, thereby achieving the purpose of changing the vertical height of the positioning seat 3.

[0033] Furthermore, as shown in the figure, a rod cap 44 is provided at one end of the positioning rod 4, and a cross groove 43 is provided on the side of the rod cap 44, so as to facilitate the operator to screw the positioning rod 4 in or out, and the other end of the positioning rod 4 is threadedly connected with a fixing sleeve 41, and a fixed pressure plate 42 is provided on the side of the fixing sleeve 41 to increase the contact area with the wire; an annular plate 14 is also provided on the top of the main shell 1, and after the lower limit plate 51 contacts the main shell 1, the annular plate 14 is sleeved on the outside of the lower limit plate 51.

[0034] In this embodiment, if Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, two fixing plates 6 are further provided on the side of the main shell 1, and matching holes 61 are provided on the fixing plates 6. The main shell 1 includes a first shell 11 and a second shell 12 that are horizontally combined. The general cover plate includes two sub-cover plates that are respectively fixedly installed on the first shell 11 and the second shell 12. A first matching groove 15 is provided on the side of the first shell 11, and a first matching block 16 is provided in the first matching groove 15. A second matching groove 17 is provided on the side of the second shell 12, and a second matching block 18 is provided in the second matching groove 17.

[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, after the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 are combined, the first matching groove 15 and the second matching groove 17 are combined into a groove-shaped structure matched with the fixing plate 6, and the first matching block 16 and the second matching block 18 are fitted to each other and combined into a block-shaped structure that is inserted into the matching hole 61, so as to fix the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 to each other. After the fixing plate 6 is removed from the matching groove, the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 can be separated. The main shell 1 is set as the separated first shell 11 and the second shell 12, so that the operator can sleeve the main shell 1 on the outside of the wire.

[0036] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a fixing block 19 is further provided on the side of the first shell 11, and a fixing belt 7 is fixedly connected to the fixing block 19. A fixing sleeve 41 of the fixing belt 7 is provided on the outside of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12 to fix the two together from the outside. A limiting hole 71 is also provided on the side of the fixing belt 7, and a limiting block 62 is provided on the fixing plate 6 to be inserted into the limiting hole 71, so as to improve the stability of the connection between the fixing belt 7 and the first shell 11 and the second shell 12.

[0037] Furthermore, a rotating shaft 73 and a locking groove 72 are respectively provided at both ends of the fixing belt 7, and a movable plate 75 is movably connected to the rotating shaft 73, and a locking hook 74 is rotatably connected to the movable plate 75. After the locking hook 74 is engaged in the locking groove 72, the fixing belt 7 is adhered and fixed to the outer sides of the first shell 11 and the second shell 12. After the locking hook 74 is pulled outward, the locking hook 74 is disengaged from the locking groove 72, thereby releasing the fixing combination of the fixing belt 7 on the first shell 11 and the second shell 12.

[0038] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art who is familiar with the present technical field can easily think of changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, which should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be based on the protection scope of the claims.
