TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a cable joint, in particular to a power cable joint with quick installation. BACKGROUND

[0002] According to the statistical result analysis of the 110kV and above cable system fault cases, the cable joint fault accounts for as high as 50.87% in the accessory fault, and the cable joint is always the weakest link to cause the accident. The insulation structure of the cable joint is relatively complex compared with the cable body, and defects are easily caused in the production and on-site construction, leaving hidden troubles of faults, so the cable joint is still the focus of the power supply company.

[0003] The cable joint installation environment is complex, and the current conventional cable joint installation needs to install the joint on one end of the cable and then pull back to the middle of the two end connecting cables. The cable processing length is relatively long, the construction difficulty is great, the installation time is long, and the technical requirements for the construction personnel are high. Moreover, during the installation, the outer shielding of the polished cable and the enhanced insulation contact may cause the risk of enhanced insulation adhesion of conductive particles, which may affect the safe operation of the cable joint.

[0007] In one preferred embodiment of the present application, the conductive mounting hole is of a structure with a small inner diameter and a large outer diameter, which comprises a first hole position with a larger size and a second hole position with a smaller size; the conductive contact comprises a first mounting part and a second mounting part, the first mounting part is located in the first hole position, and the second mounting part is located in the second hole position;

[0008] The first hole site and the second hole site are provided with a positioning surface for positioning the first mounting part. In this way, the conductive contact can be positioned during installation, and the stress cone and the cable insulation shield can be prevented from being misaligned during the insertion of the cable into the connector body.

[0009] Further, the first mounting part is fixedly connected with the end of the cable conductor, and the second mounting part is provided with the mounting groove.

[0010] Further, the first mounting part and the second mounting part are both provided with a chamfer structure, and a round corner structure is arranged at the boundary of the chamfer structure. In this way, the guide head can be used during installation, without the need for additional installation guide heads, and the connector body will not be scratched.

[0011] Further, the conductive contact is fixedly connected with the connector conductive part through a locking structure, and the locking structure comprises a locking block, a locking driving assembly for driving the locking block to be inserted between the conductive contact and the connector conductive part, and a locking assembly for locking the power of the locking driving assembly.

[0012] Further, an annular clamping groove is arranged on the inner wall of the second hole site of the connector conductive part.

[0015] Further, the locking driving assembly is arranged in the sliding installation hole, and the locking driving assembly comprises a locking driving spring and a locking driving block. The two ends of the locking driving spring are respectively abutted against the locking driving block and the hole wall of the sliding installation hole. The locking driving block is provided with a first extrusion inclined surface.

[0018] Further, the locking driving block is further provided with a supporting plane for supporting the locking block, and the supporting plane is located at the top of the first extrusion inclined surface. In this way, when the locking block enters the annular clamping groove, the locking block is limited and supported by the locking driving block of the supporting plane, so that the locking block cannot automatically exit the annular clamping groove, thereby stably connecting the cable and the joint together.

[0035] In order for those skilled in the art to have a better understanding of the technical solutions of the application, the application will be further described below in combination with the embodiments and the drawings, but the implementation manners of the application are not limited to this.

[0037] In particular, the cable comprises a cable conductor 8, a cable insulation 9, a cable insulation shield 10, a cable metal sheath 11 and a cable outer sheath 12.

[0038] Referring to Figures 1-4 , the joint conductive part 4 is embedded in the inner hole of the high-voltage shielding tube 6, and the two ends of the joint conductive part 4 are respectively provided with conductive mounting holes for mounting the conductive contact 1; the conductive contact 1 is provided with two and is respectively connected with the end of the cable conductor 8, and the outer surface of each conductive contact 1 is provided with a mounting groove 1-1; the conductive connecting part 2 is provided with two and is respectively mounted in the corresponding mounting groove 1-1, and in the mounting state, the conductive connecting part 2 realizes the electrical connection of the joint conductive part 4 and the conductive contact 1.

In this way, the conductive contact 1 can be positioned during installation, avoiding the stress cone 5 from being overlapped with the cable insulation shield 10 due to the overlong insertion of the cable into the joint body.

[0040] Further, the first mounting part is fixedly connected with the end of the cable conductor 8, and the second mounting part is provided with the mounting groove 1-1.

[0041] Further, the first mounting part and the second mounting part are both provided with a chamfer structure, and a round corner structure is provided at the boundary of the chamfer structure. In this way, a guide head can be used during installation, without the need for additional installation guide heads, and the joint body will not be scratched.

[0042] Referring to Figures 5-8 , the conductive contact 1 is fixedly connected with the joint conductive part 4 through a locking structure, and the locking structure is provided with at least two groups and is uniformly arranged along the circumferential direction; each group of locking structure includes a locking block 13, a locking driving assembly for driving the locking block 13 to be inserted between the conductive contact 1 and the joint conductive part 4, and a locking assembly for locking the power of the locking driving assembly.

Specifically, the conductive contact 1 is formed by locking two half columns.

[0044] Further, the locking driving assembly is arranged in the sliding installation hole 1-2, the locking driving assembly comprises a locking driving spring 14 and a locking driving block 15, two ends of the locking driving spring 14 are respectively abutted against the locking driving block 15 and the hole wall of the sliding installation hole 1-2, and the locking driving block 15 is provided with a first extrusion inclined surface, and the locking block 13 is provided with a second extrusion inclined surface matched with the first extrusion inclined surface.

[0045] Further, the conductive contact 1 is further provided with a locking installation hole 1-4 and an avoiding hole 1-5, the locking assembly is arranged in the locking installation hole 1-4, the locking assembly comprises a locking swing piece 16 and a locking elastic piece 17, the locking swing piece 16 is rotationally connected in the locking installation hole 1-4, and one end of the locking swing piece 16 is provided with an unlocking extrusion part 16-1, and the other end of the locking swing piece 16 is provided with a locking part 16-2; the locking driving block 15 is provided with a locking groove 15-1 matched with the locking part 16-2; in a locked state, one end of the unlocking extrusion part 16-1 extends to the side surface of the first installation part corresponding to the positioning surface 4-3 outside through the avoiding hole 1-5, and one end of the locking part 16-2 extends to the locking groove 15-1; two ends of the locking elastic piece 17 are abutted against the hole wall of the locking installation hole 1-4 and the locking swing piece 16.

[0046] By the above structure, during the process of inserting the conductive contact 1 into the conductive mounting hole, the unlocking extrusion part 16-1 of the locking swing part 16 gradually approaches the positioning surface 4-3 of the joint conductive part 4, when the unlocking extrusion part 16-1 of the locking swing part 16 contacts with the positioning surface 4-3 of the joint conductive part 4, the positioning surface 4-3 will extrude the unlocking extrusion part 16-1 of the locking swing part 16 backward, at this time, the locking swing part 16 swings, so that the locking part 16-2 of the locking swing part 16 is out of the locking groove 15-1 of the locking driving block 15, the locking of the locking driving block 15 is released, at this time, the lock hole 1-3 of the conductive contact 1 is just communicated with the annular clamping groove 4-4 of the joint conductive part 4; the potential energy of the locking driving spring 14 is released instantaneously, the locking driving block 15 is pushed to move forward, the locking block 13 is driven by the first extrusion inclined surface of the locking driving block 15 to move in the direction away from the sliding mounting hole 1-2, so that one end of the locking block 13 is inserted into the annular clamping groove 4-4 of the joint conductive part 4, like Figure 7 , so as to complete the locking operation and realize the fixation between the cable and the joint, which will not be easily loosened.

[0047] Further, the locking driving block 15 is further provided with a supporting plane for supporting the locking block 13, and the supporting plane is located at the top of the first extrusion inclined surface. In this way, when the locking block 13 enters the annular clamping groove 4-4, the locking block 13 is limited and supported by the locking driving block 15 of the supporting plane, so as to prevent the locking block 13 from automatically exiting the annular clamping groove 4-4, thereby stably connecting the cable and the joint together.

[0048] Further, the conductive contact 1 is further provided with a spring mounting hole 1-6, and the spring mounting hole 1-6 is provided with an anti-falling spring 18, and the two ends of the anti-falling spring 18 are respectively abutted against the inner bottom surface of the spring mounting hole 1-6 and the side surface of the locking block 13. In this way, when the locking block 13 is located below, the anti-falling spring 18 can elastically limit the locking block 13 in the lock hole 1-3, so as to prevent the locking block 13 from falling downward.

[0049] Further, the conductive contact 1 and the joint conductive part 4 are gap-fitted.

[0050] Further, the conductive connecting part 2 is a hollow elastic structure, and in the non-installed state, the outer diameter of the conductive connecting part 2 is greater than the inner diameter of the second hole 4-2. By the above structure, when the conductive contact 1 is inserted into the conductive mounting hole of the joint conductive part 4, the conductive connecting part 2 will be self-adapted to the hole wall of the conductive mounting hole, so as to fully conduct between the conductive contact 1 and the joint conductive part 4, thereby ensuring smooth power transmission.

[0051] Further, the mounting groove 1-1 and the conductive connecting part 2 are annular structures, so that the conduction can be realized in the entire circumferential direction, and the conduction area is increased.

[0052] Referring to Figures 1-4 The working principle of the quick installation power cable joint of the embodiment is as follows:

[0053] During installation, the conductive contact 1 is connected with the cable in an integrated manner through crimping or screw locking, so as to ensure that the contact resistance is not higher than the body resistance of the cable conductor 8.

[0054] First, the cable with the conductive contact 1 installed at one end is inserted into the joint body, and when the positioning surface 4-3 on the conductive contact 1 contacts the joint conductive part 4 in the high-voltage shielding tube 6, the cable is in place. Then, the cable with the conductive contact 1 installed at the other end is inserted into the joint body, and the joint body does not need to be installed on the cable with the stripped length at one end being greater than the length of the joint body. After the cable conductors 8 at both ends are connected, the joint body is pulled back to the center of the cable conductor 8 connection. Therefore, the cable can be stripped for a shorter length, the cable stripping length is saved, and the cable processing time is shortened. At the same time, the cable is inserted into the joint body for a length of only half the length of the joint body, which not only greatly reduces the risk of joint breakdown caused by sticking of conductive particles on the outer shield of the cable, but also reduces the total friction resistance during installation and facilitates quick installation.

[0055] The cable conductors 8 at both ends are connected through the conductive connecting part 2 on the conductive contact 1 and the joint conductive part 4 in the high-voltage shielding tube 6 (one side of the conductive connecting part 2 contacts the conductive contact 1, and the other side contacts the joint conductive part 4), so as to achieve electrical connection of the cable conductors 8 at both ends.

[0056] The above is the preferred embodiment of the present application, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited by the above content, and any change, modification, substitution, combination, simplification made without departing from the spirit and principles of the present application should be an equivalent replacement method, which is included in the protection scope of the present application.
