Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cable connectors, and in particular to a universal connector and an automatic monitoring and positioning method. Background Art

[0002] Power line clamps are used to connect the main line end and the secondary line end in the power system, thereby achieving connection and conduction between the two. The selection of power line clamps must meet both the wire diameter requirements and the power performance requirements. At the wire clamp connection point, conduction should be maintained between the line ends. In the prior art, general wire clamps are only used to clamp and connect wires of one wire diameter. When it is necessary to clamp transmission lines of multiple wire diameters, multiple wire clamps of different specifications are required. This requires a high investment cost, and the simultaneous use of wire clamps of multiple specifications will increase the labor intensity of the staff. Moreover, when a wire clamp fails, it is impossible to accurately and quickly obtain the location of the faulty wire clamp, resulting in low maintenance efficiency, which affects people's electricity usage. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a universal connector and an automatic monitoring and positioning method that can adapt to cable clamping connections of different sizes, and can accurately locate the position of the connector through a GPS locator. When a fault occurs, it can be accurately located for inspection, repair or replacement, thereby improving maintenance efficiency and fully ensuring that people's electricity use is not affected.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] a locking assembly mounted on the housing, the locking assembly being movable between a locked position and an unlocked position. When in the locked position, the locking assembly is capable of pressing against a wire core placed on the first wire fixing portion or the second wire fixing portion, thereby locking the wire core; and when in the unlocked position, the locking assembly is disengaged from the surface of the wire core.

[0008] A blocking assembly is installed on the side of the shell, and the blocking assembly can be moved between a first position and a second position. When the blocking assembly is moved to the first position, the opening is closed. When the blocking assembly is moved to the second position, the opening is opened.

[0009] A GPS locator is installed in the shell.

[0010] Further, at least two inductance sensors are installed in the shell. One of the inductance sensors is used to detect the current-carrying capacity of the wire core placed on the first wire fixing part, and the other inductance sensor is used to detect the current-carrying capacity of the wire core placed on the second wire fixing part.

[0011] Further, a temperature sensor is installed in the shell.

[0012] Further, a containing groove is installed in the side wall of the shell. The containing groove is in communication with the opening on the side opposite to the opening. The blocking assembly includes a blocking plate slidably installed in the containing groove, and a push-pull part connected with the blocking plate. The push-pull part at least partially extends out of the shell.

[0013] Further, a locking position is provided on the end face of the opening away from the containing groove. A locking part is provided on the blocking plate and is locked with the locking position.

[0014] Further, the locking assembly includes a fastener threadedly connected with the shell, and a pressing part provided on the first end of the fastener. The pressing part is located in the containing space. The second end of the fastener extends out of the shell.

[0016] Further, a sleeve and a cylinder cover are provided on the shell. Part of the fastener is provided in the sleeve, and the cylinder cover is provided on the end of the sleeve.

[0017] In another aspect, an automatic monitoring and positioning method of a universal connector is also provided. The universal connector is used as described above. One of the wire cores is placed in the first wire fixing part, and the other wire core is placed in the second wire fixing part. The current-carrying values of the two wire cores are obtained. The ratio a of the two current-carrying values is compared. If a>10%, it is determined that the universal connector has a fault.

When the locking assembly is in the locking position, the locking assembly presses the core arranged on the first wire fixing part or the second wire fixing part, so that the cable is clamped tightly. When the locking assembly is in the unlocking position, the locking assembly is separated from the surface of the core, so that the cable can be easily disassembled. The blocking assembly is arranged on the side surface of the shell and can be moved between a first position and a second position.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] To make the technical problems solved by the present application, the technical solutions adopted and the technical effects reached more clear, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application are described in further detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0029] In the description of the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected", "connected", "fixed" should be understood broadly, for example, can be fixedly connected, can be detachably connected, or integrated; can be mechanically connected, can be electrically connected; can be directly connected, can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, can be the internal communication of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0030] In the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the first feature "on" or "under" the second feature can include that the first and second features are in direct contact, or that the first and second features are not in direct contact but are in contact through another feature between them. Moreover, the first feature "on", "above" and "above" the second feature includes that the first feature is directly above and obliquely above the second feature, or only indicates that the horizontal height of the first feature is higher than that of the second feature. The first feature "under", "below" and "below" the second feature includes that the first feature is directly below and obliquely below the second feature, or only indicates that the horizontal height of the first feature is less than that of the second feature.

[0031] As Figures 1-5As shown, the embodiment provides a universal connector, comprising a shell 1, a conductive part 2, a locking assembly 3, a blocking assembly 4 and a GPS locator 5, the inside of the shell 1 is formed with a containing space, the surface of the shell 1 is provided with two through wire holes, and the side surface is provided with openings 102 corresponding to the two wire holes; the conductive part 2 is arranged in the containing space, the conductive part 2 comprises a first wire fixing part 201 and a second wire fixing part 202 arranged diagonally, the first wire fixing part 201 and the second wire fixing part 202 are respectively opposite to the two wire holes, the first wire fixing part 201 and the second wire fixing part 202 are both arc-shaped, and the arc of the first wire fixing part 201 is greater than or equal to the arc of the second wire fixing part 202; the locking assembly 3 is installed on the shell 1, the locking assembly 3 can move between a locking position and an unlocking position, when in the locking position, the locking assembly 3 can press the wire core placed on the first wire fixing part 201 or the second wire fixing part 202, and then lock the wire core; when in the unlocking position, the locking assembly 3 is separated from the surface of the wire core; the blocking assembly 4 is installed on the side surface of the shell 1, the blocking assembly 4 can move between a first position and a second position, when the blocking assembly 4 moves to the first position, the opening 102 is closed; when the blocking assembly 4 moves to the second position, the opening 102 is opened; the GPS locator 5 is installed in the shell 1.

[0032] Based on the above scheme, the cables to be connected are respectively passed through the two wire holes of the shell 1, and the core parts of the cables contact the first wire fixing part 201 and the second wire fixing part 202 of the conductive part 2. Since the first wire fixing part 201 and the second wire fixing part 202 are both arc-shaped, they can adapt to cables of different sizes and provide a certain clamping force to ensure good contact between the cables and the conductive part 2. When the locking assembly 3 is moved to the locked position, the locking assembly 3 will press the core placed on the first wire fixing part 201 or the second wire fixing part 202, further enhancing the clamping force between the cable and the conductive part 2, ensuring the stability and conductivity of the connection. When the cable needs to be removed, move the locking assembly 3 to the unlocked position, and the locking assembly 3 will be separated from the surface of the core, and the cable can be easily taken out from the wire hole. When the position of the exposed core of the connected cable is relatively close to the end of the cable, the cable can be passed through the wire hole so that the core is in contact and locked with the conductive part 2, but when the core is in a relatively intermediate position of the cable, the method of passing the cable through the wire hole will make the installation time too long, therefore the blocking assembly 4 can be moved to the second position to open the opening 102, and the position of the exposed core of the cable can directly enter the first wire fixing part 201 or the second wire fixing part 202 from the opening 102, and then move the blocking assembly 4 to the first position to close the opening 102, which can realize the preliminary blocking of the cable and ensure that the core position corresponds to the contact with the conductive part 2, and finally the locking operation is performed through the locking assembly 3. More importantly, the GPS locator 5 is installed in the shell 1 and can record the position information of the connector in real time. When the connector fails, the position of the connector can be quickly and accurately obtained through the GPS locator 5, which facilitates the maintenance personnel to quickly arrive at the scene for detection and maintenance or replacement. The connector has good conductivity and stability, can ensure the reliable connection and conduction between the main cable and the auxiliary cable in the power system, has the characteristics of strong universality, simple operation, accurate positioning and ensuring the safety of electricity use, and has important significance for improving the reliability and safety of the power system.

[0033] It is worth mentioning that the shell 1 is an insulator. The insulating shell 1 as the external protective layer of the connector can effectively isolate the internal conductive components from the external environment, preventing current leakage and short circuit risk. In the power system, electrical safety is crucial, and the use of the insulating shell 1 greatly enhances the electrical safety performance of the connector, ensuring the personal safety of the maintenance personnel and the stable operation of the power system. Due to the good insulation performance and weather resistance of the insulating shell 1, the connector can be used in various harsh environments, such as humid, dusty, high temperature, etc., which makes the application range of the connector more extensive, and can meet the use requirements in different scenes. Moreover, the insulating shell 1 not only has excellent electrical performance, but also has good mechanical strength and durability. It can withstand certain external forces and impacts to protect the internal conductive components from damage. Therefore, the connector can maintain stable performance during long-term operation, reducing the possibility of failure.

[0034] The design of the insulating shell 1 makes the installation and maintenance of the connector more convenient, and the maintenance personnel do not need to worry about electrical safety problems caused by improper operation, and can focus more on the installation and debugging work of the connector. At the same time, the insulating shell 1 is also easy to clean and maintain, prolonging the service life of the connector.

[0035] Further, at least two inductance sensors 6 are arranged in the shell 1, one of which is used to detect the current-carrying capacity of the wire core placed on the first wire fixing part 201, and the other is used to detect the current-carrying capacity of the wire core placed on the second wire fixing part 202. The inductance sensor 6 can monitor the current-carrying capacity of the wire core in real time, providing key operation data for the maintenance personnel. By monitoring the current-carrying capacity, the maintenance personnel can timely understand the load condition of the power system and prevent the occurrence of overload and short circuit failures. Since the inductance sensor 6 can monitor the current-carrying capacity in real time, the maintenance personnel can more accurately judge the running state of the connector. Once a failure or abnormal condition occurs, the maintenance personnel can quickly locate and take measures to handle it, thereby improving the operation efficiency. By monitoring the current-carrying capacity in real time, the maintenance personnel can timely discover potential electrical safety hazards such as overload and short circuit, which helps the maintenance personnel to take preventive and handling measures in time, thereby enhancing the safety of the power system. At the same time, the current-carrying capacity data provided by the inductance sensor 6 can help the maintenance personnel to more reasonably allocate power resources and optimize the operation efficiency of the power system. For example, during peak hours, the maintenance personnel can adjust the load distribution of the power system according to the current-carrying capacity data to ensure the stable operation of the power system.

[0036] The inductance sensor 6 is a method of calculating the current-carrying capacity of the wire cable by measuring the induced electromotive force. When there is current flowing in the wire, a magnetic field will be generated around it, and the change of this magnetic field will cause the change of inductance. By measuring the change of inductance, the current in the wire can be calculated, and the current-carrying capacity can be evaluated. The inductance sensor 6 has the characteristics of high precision and wide measurement range, and is suitable for current-carrying capacity monitoring of various wire cables. However, this method also requires professional measuring equipment and calculation process.

[0037] Further, the housing 1 is also provided with a temperature sensor 7. The inductance sensor 6 can monitor the current-carrying capacity of the wire core in real time, providing key operation data for the maintenance personnel; at the same time, the temperature sensor 7 can monitor the temperature inside the connector in real time, ensuring that the connector operates within a safe temperature range. Through the cooperation of the two sensors, the maintenance personnel can comprehensively understand the operation status of the connector. Since the inductance sensor 6 and the temperature sensor 7 can monitor the current-carrying capacity and temperature in real time, the maintenance personnel can more accurately judge the operation status of the connector. Once a fault or abnormal situation occurs, such as overload, short circuit or high temperature, the maintenance personnel can quickly locate and take measures to handle it, thereby improving the operation efficiency and accuracy.

[0038] In some embodiments, the side wall of the housing 1 is provided with a containing groove 101, which is in communication with the opening 102 on one side of the opening 102, and the blocking assembly 4 includes a baffle 401 slidingly installed in the containing groove 101, and a push-pull part 402 connected with the baffle 401, the push-pull part 402 at least partially extends out of the housing 1. Through the push-pull part 402, the maintenance personnel can easily slide the baffle 401 to realize the closing and opening of the opening 102, which not only simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the cable, but also improves the convenience and efficiency of the operation. At the same time, when the baffle 401 is in the closed position, it can effectively prevent the cable from coming out of the opening 102, enhancing the stability and safety of the connector. The design of the containing groove 101 and the blocking assembly 4 makes the internal structure of the connector more compact and orderly, which not only improves the overall aesthetics of the connector, but also helps to reduce space occupation and reduce cost. In addition, the maintenance personnel can judge the state of the baffle 401 by observing the position of the push-pull part 402, so as to quickly understand the cable management situation of the connector. This intuitive design enhances the user experience, making the operation process more smooth and efficient.

[0039] In particular, the opening 102 is provided with a locking position at one end of the accommodating groove 101, and the baffle plate 401 is provided with a locking part that cooperates with the locking position to lock. The cooperation of the locking position and the locking part enables the baffle plate 401 to be firmly locked at the opening 102 in the closed state, effectively preventing the cable from accidentally coming out of the opening 102, which not only enhances the safety of the connector but also improves its stability in harsh environments. The maintenance personnel can slide the baffle plate 401 by operating the push-pull part 402, and when the baffle plate 401 is slid to the closed position, the locking part will automatically cooperate with the locking position to lock. Similarly, when it is necessary to open the opening 102, the maintenance personnel only needs to slightly push or pull the push-pull part 402, and the locking part will be unlocked from the locking position to easily open the opening 102. This convenient locking and unlocking operation greatly simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the cable.

[0040] Generally, the locking assembly 3 includes a fastener 301 connected to the housing 1 by threading, a top pressing part 302 provided at the first end of the fastener 301, which is located in the accommodating space, and the second end of the fastener 301 protrudes out of the housing 1. The fastener 301 is the core component of the locking assembly 3, which is connected to a specific part of the housing 1 by threading. The fastener 301 can be a bolt, a screw, or other types of threaded connectors, depending on the design requirements and the size of the connector. The top pressing part 302 is provided at the first end of the fastener 301 and located in the accommodating space. When the fastener 301 is tightened, the top pressing part 302 will exert pressure on the core inside the connector, thereby ensuring that the core is in a locked state. The shape and size of the top pressing part 302 vary depending on the design to accommodate different locking requirements and core sizes and shapes. The second end of the fastener 301 protrudes out of the housing 1, facilitating the tightening or loosening operation by the maintenance personnel using tools such as screwdrivers or wrenches. The second end includes a head designed with a shape suitable for tool operation (such as hexagonal, one-letter, or cross-shaped, etc.). When it is necessary to lock the core, the maintenance personnel will use the tool to tighten the second end of the fastener 301 protruding out of the housing 1. With the rotation of the fastener 301, it will gradually penetrate along the threaded hole of the housing 1, while driving the top pressing part 302 to exert pressure on the core in the accommodating space. When the top pressing part 302 is in close contact with the core and generates sufficient friction or locking force, the core is locked in the accommodating space. When it is necessary to disassemble the cable, the maintenance personnel only needs to use the tool to rotate the second end of the fastener 301 in the opposite direction to screw it out of the housing 1, thereby releasing the pressure of the top pressing part 302 on the core and unlocking the cable.

[0041] In the above scheme, the design of the fastener 301 and the pressing part 302 through threaded connection ensures the stability and reliability of the core in the locked state. The second end of the fastener 301 protrudes from the shell 1, which facilitates the operation of the maintenance personnel using tools, and improves the work efficiency. The design of the locking assembly 3 can be adjusted and optimized according to different core sizes and locking requirements.

[0042] In the design of the universal connector, the locking assembly 3 ensures the stable locking of the core in the accommodation space, thereby guaranteeing the overall stability and safety of the connector. Specifically, the locking assembly 3 includes a fastener 301 threaded to the shell 1, and a pressing part 302 arranged at the first end of the fastener 301. The design of the pressing part 302 is particularly critical. It adopts an arc-shaped design on one side relative to the core. This design not only better fits the surface of the core, increases the contact area, and improves the stability of the locking, but also reduces the local pressure of the pressing part 302 on the core, avoiding damage or deformation of the core. When the fastener 301 is tightened, the pressing part 302 will apply appropriate pressure to the core, making it tightly contact with the wall surface of the first or second wire fixing part 201 or 202, achieving the locking effect. Since the pressing part 302 has a certain elasticity and adaptability, it can adapt to the requirements of cores of different sizes and shapes, ensuring the consistency of the locking effect. Therefore, the design of the pressing part 302 not only improves the stability and safety of the connector, but also enhances its adaptability and universality, making the connector better adapt to various complex power system environments, ensuring the reliability and safety of power transmission.

[0043] It should be noted that the shell 1 is also provided with a sleeve 8 and a cylinder cover 9. Part of the fastener 301 is arranged in the sleeve 8, and the cylinder cover 9 is arranged at the end of the sleeve 8. The sleeve 8 is a tubular structure arranged on the shell 1, and its internal space is used to accommodate part of the fastener 301. The design of the sleeve 8 has several key functions: first, it provides a stable installation environment for the fastener 301, ensuring that the fastener 301 does not shake or misalign during tightening; second, the sleeve 8 can protect the fastener 301 from external environmental erosion, such as dust and moisture, thereby prolonging the service life of the fastener 301; finally, the sleeve 8 can also act as a transition structure between the fastener 301 and the shell 1, helping to distribute the pressure generated by the fastener 301 and avoiding excessive stress concentration on the shell 1. The cylinder cover 9 is a component arranged at the end of the sleeve 8, which is fixed on the sleeve 8 through threaded connection, snap connection or other ways. The main function of the cylinder cover 9 is to close the opening 102 end of the sleeve 8, preventing dust, moisture and other impurities from entering the inside of the sleeve 8 and affecting the performance of the fastener 301. At the same time, the cylinder cover 9 can also provide certain protection, such as preventing personnel from accidentally touching the fastener 301 and causing injury.

[0044] In another aspect, an automatic monitoring and positioning method for a universal connector is also provided, which uses the universal connector as described above, one wire core is placed in the first wire fixing part 201, another wire core is placed in the second wire fixing part 202, and is locked by the locking assembly 3, the current-carrying values of the two wire cores are obtained, the ratio a of the two current-carrying values is compared, if a > 10%, it is determined that the universal connector has a fault, and the position of the universal connector is located for further detection or repair and replacement.

[0045] Based on the above scheme, the two wire cores are fixed in the first wire fixing part 201 and the second wire fixing part 202 respectively using the universal connector, and are locked by the locking assembly 3 to ensure stable connection. The current-carrying values of the two wire cores are obtained respectively by using the inductance sensor 6, and the ratio a of the two current-carrying values is calculated. If a > 10%, it is considered that the universal connector may have faults such as poor contact, line aging or internal damage. Once the fault is identified, the position of the faulty connector is automatically located, and further detection, repair or replacement is performed. In this scheme, by obtaining the current-carrying value in real time and calculating the ratio, potential faults in the connector can be detected in time to avoid the expansion of the fault leading to more serious consequences. This method can be integrated into an automatic monitoring system to realize all-weather and uninterrupted monitoring and fault warning, improve maintenance efficiency and safety. In addition, only the inductance sensor 6, GPS locator 5 and monitoring system need to be added on the basis of the existing connector, without major modification of the connector itself.

[0046] In addition, to ensure the accuracy of current detection, the inductance sensor 6 should be calibrated and maintained regularly, and a fault database can be established to statistically analyze historical fault data to identify fault patterns and trends and provide a basis for preventive maintenance. Moreover, the inductance sensor 6 and the monitoring system selected should match the type and specifications of the universal connector to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the detection results.

[0047] Further, the current weather conditions are obtained through networking, and when hail, heavy rain or typhoon weather occurs, the current-carrying capacity parameters and temperature parameters of all the universal connectors in use are uniformly detected, and it is judged whether the corresponding universal connector has a fault according to the detected parameters. When it is judged that there is a fault, the fault position is located by the GPS locator 5 for detection or repair and replacement. By obtaining the current weather conditions in real time through networking, especially paying attention to the extreme weather warning such as hail, heavy rain and typhoon, after encountering extreme weather, the current-carrying capacity parameters and temperature parameters of all the universal connectors in use are uniformly detected, and according to the detected current-carrying capacity and temperature parameters, combined with the preset threshold or standard, it is judged whether the connector has a fault. When it is judged that the connector has a fault, the fault position is quickly located by the GPS locator 5, and the connector is detected, repaired or replaced.

[0048] Overall, the weather situation is obtained through networking, which can provide an early warning of extreme weather and provide a time window for subsequent parameter detection and fault judgment. The current capacity and temperature parameters are important indicators of connector performance. By detecting these two parameters simultaneously, the state of the connector can be more comprehensively evaluated. The GPS locator 5 can quickly and accurately locate the faulty connector, improving maintenance efficiency and reducing downtime. Through regular parameter detection and weather monitoring, potential faults can be detected in a timely manner, preventive measures can be taken, and faults can be avoided.
