Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of isolating switches, and in particular to a moisture-proof sealing system for a bearing seat used for isolating switches. Background Art

[0002] The GW4 isolating switch is a double-column horizontal rotary structure, which can be equipped with an earthing switch. It is mainly used in power lines with an AC frequency of 50 / 60Hz and a rated voltage of 110kV. It is used to disconnect or connect high-voltage circuits under no-load conditions, so as to convert high-voltage lines, change the operating mode, and implement safe electrical isolation of high-voltage electrical equipment such as busbars and circuit breakers under maintenance. The isolating switch consists of a base, two post insulators, an upper conductive part, and an operating mechanism. The post insulator is installed on the base, and the upper conductive part is installed above the post insulator. The upper mounting hole of the operating insulator is connected to the conductive arm, and the lower mounting hole is connected to the operating crank arm, which is connected to the operating rod. The operating mechanism drives the operating crank arm through the operating rod, and the operating crank arm drives the post insulator to rotate horizontally, thereby completing the opening and closing of the isolating switch.

As GW4 isolating switch is widely used, it is often deployed in coastal areas with high temperature and high humidity and other areas with more wind and sand, and the environment is relatively harsh. The bearing seat that drives the insulator to rotate does not have a special moisture-proof sealing structure. Rainwater and dust will enter the bearing seat, causing corrosion and jamming of the bearing, making it impossible for the isolating switch to be effectively closed or opened, resulting in power outage losses.

[0019] The side of the bearing seat body 201 close to the shaft plate 3 is defined as the first side, and the side of the bearing seat body 201 away from the shaft plate 3 is defined as the second side. The first side of the bearing seat body 201 also has a boss 207 protruding toward the shaft plate 3. The shaft plate 3 is located above the boss 207, and a gap is left between the shaft plate 3 and the boss 207.

[0020] The cooperation between the rotating shaft 202 and the bearing seat body 201 is as follows: the rotating shaft 202 is a T-shaped structure composed of a first segment and a second segment, and the end of the first segment is connected to the shaft plate 3, the first segment and the second segment are both cylindrical structures, and the size of the first segment is larger than the size of the second segment, and there is a cavity 203 in the bearing seat body 201 for accommodating the upper and lower installation of the rotating shaft 202, and the cavity 203 is also a T-shaped cavity composed of a first cavity segment and a second cavity segment, and the size of the first cavity segment is larger than the size of the second cavity segment, the first segment is placed in the first cavity segment, and the second segment is placed in the second cavity segment.

[0021] After the rotating shaft 202 is placed in the cavity 203 , a first deep groove ball bearing 204 , a plane bearing 205 and a second deep groove ball bearing 206 are arranged between the rotating shaft 202 and the bearing seat body 201 .

[0022] A first groove for accommodating the installation of the first deep groove ball bearing 204 is also opened at the end of the boss 207 on the first side of the bearing seat body 201, and the first groove is connected to the first cavity section.

[0025] In the above structure, for the cooperation between the rotating shaft 202 and the bearing seat body 201, a T-shaped rotating shaft 202 is used to fit with the bearing seat body 201 with a T-shaped cavity, thereby achieving a one-way limit between the rotating shaft 202 and the bearing seat body 201, preventing the rotating shaft 202 from moving in the bearing seat body 201. Since the other side of the rotating shaft 202 is connected to the shaft plate 3, and the shaft plate 3 is connected to the operating insulator, the other one-way of the rotating shaft 202 can be directly prevented by the action of gravity. In addition, the combination of different bearings, such as the first deep groove ball bearing 204, the plane bearing 205 and the second deep groove ball bearing 206, is used to assist the rotating shaft 202 in rotating cooperation with the bearing seat body 201, ensuring that the rotating shaft 202 can rotate smoothly relative to the bearing seat body 201, avoiding the smooth rotation of the operating insulator due to undesirable phenomena such as jamming and blocking during the rotation of the rotating shaft 202.

After the rotating shaft 202 is installed, the first wool felt 212 will be pressed against the inner ring of the first deep groove ball bearing 204 and the upper end face of the bearing seat body 201, thereby forming a second seal to block water vapor.

[0031] The lower end sealing structure of the bearing seat body 201 is composed of a cover 220, an O-ring 222 and a second wool felt 221. The O-ring 222 is installed in the groove of the cover 220. The cover 220 is fixed by tightening bolts so that the O-ring 222 obtains a certain deformation to form a first seal for blocking fine particles such as sand and dust. The second wool felt 221 is fixed to the bottom end of the rotating shaft 202 by bolts 224 and a pressure plate 223. After the rotating shaft 202 is installed, the second wool felt 221 will be pressed against the lower end surface of the bearing seat body 201, thereby forming a second seal for blocking water vapor.
