Before calibration, the SF lock must be closed. 6 Density relay valve, after the calibration is completed, it will be restored. However, this operation is manual, and it is inevitable that the SF 6 Density relay valve is not open, which will cause SF 6 The density relay is isolated from the equipment gas chamber, causing SF 6 The pressure reading of the density relay meter cannot correctly feedback the pressure value of the equipment chamber: If the residual gas in the meter pressure leaks, the meter pressure will gradually decrease, which will trigger the SF 6 Low pressure alarm or lockout, SF 6 Density relay lockout will cause the circuit breaker control circuit to be disconnected, and it will not work normally when a fault occurs, causing an over-trip. 6 Density relay cannot reflect this condition normally, which will cause the circuit breaker to operate when the fault occurs, but SF 6 The gas density cannot completely extinguish the arc, causing damage such as equipment explosion. In addition, under the requirement of safe distance when some equipment is energized, the staff handles the SF 6 Density relay alarms require interval power outages, which will increase the duration of the outage and affect grid stability.

[0026] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art may make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0027] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The term "in one embodiment" that appears in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments, either individually or selectively.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] Reference Figure 1 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, and this embodiment provides an alarm device applied to a density relay valve. The alarm device applied to a density relay valve includes a knob 100, a linkage assembly 200 and a control assembly 300. By nesting the knob 100 and the relay valve together, when the relay valve is rotated, the knob 100 can be driven to rotate synchronously, and then the linkage assembly 200 is driven to move, so that the control assembly 300 continuously issues warnings to the staff.

[0030] Specifically, the knob 100 is nested with the relay valve.

[0031] Preferably, the linkage assembly 200 includes a connecting rod 201 fixedly connected to the knob 100 and a switch member 202 controlled by the connecting rod 201 , and the power supply 301 is turned on and off by setting the switch member 202 .

[0032] Preferably, the control assembly 300 includes a power supply 301 controlled by the switch element 202 and an alarm element 302, through which an alarm message can be sent to the staff, and the staff is constantly reminded so that the staff can know that they need to close the relay valve after the maintenance is completed, and will not forget it;

[0033] The knob 100 is driven to rotate by twisting the relay valve.

[0034] When in use, the staff rotates the relay valve to drive the knob 100 to rotate, triggering the power supply 301 switch, so that the warning element 302 continuously issues early warning prompts.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Reference Figure 2 , which is the second embodiment of the present invention, and this embodiment is based on the previous embodiment.

[0037] Specifically, the knob 100 is provided with a clamping edge 101 , which can drive the relay valve to rotate. The clamping edge 101 is mainly provided to fit the relay valve so that the valve can rotate against the knob 100 .

[0038] Preferably, the switch member 202 comprises a rotating rod 202a movably connected to the end of the connecting rod 201, and the rotating rod 202a rotates in the housing A;

[0039] The switch member 202 also includes a spring 202b connected to one end of the rotating rod 202a, and a power-on button 202c corresponding to the rotation position of the other end of the rotating rod 202a. When one end of the rotating rod 202a is pulled by the connecting rod 201, the other end will press the power-on button 202c, so that the power supply 301 is turned on.

[0040] Preferably, the power button 202c is electrically connected to the power source 301;

[0041] The power button 202c is pressed and the power supply 301 is powered on. The power button 202c is not pressed and the power supply 301 is powered off. The not pressed state refers to the state where the knob 100 is not rotated.

[0042] Preferably, the warning element 302 includes a signal unit 302a electrically connected to the power source 301 and a self-checking module 302b;

[0043] The signal unit 302a sends a check instruction to the self-check module 302b.

[0044] Preferably, the warning element 302 further includes a warning light 302c and a buzzer 302d electrically connected to the power source 301;

[0045] After the inspection instruction is completed, the signal unit 302a sends a work instruction to the warning light 302c and the buzzer 302d.

[0046] Preferably, the rebound force of the spring 202b is less than the force required to turn the knob 100;

[0047] The housing A is provided with a slide groove H, along which the connecting rod 201 slides.

[0048] When in use, the staff first puts the knob 100 on the relay valve so that when the valve is rotated, it can press against the edge 101, and then the knob 100 can be rotated while the valve is rotated. It is worth noting that when the knob 100 is rotated, the housing A is fixed manually, so when the knob 100 is rotated, it will slide with the connecting rod 201 inside the slide groove H, and with the movement of the connecting rod 201, it will pull the rotating rod 202a to rotate, and then one end of the rotating rod 202a will press the power button 202c, so that the power supply 301 is energized, and the alarm component 302 sends a command signal.

[0049] Example 3

[0050] Reference Figure 3 , which is the third embodiment of the present invention, and is based on the first two embodiments.

[0051] Specifically, the knob 100 is put on the relay valve;

[0052] Open the relay valve;

[0053] The warning light 302c and the buzzer 302d begin to emit an audible and visual alarm.

[0054] Preferably, the relay valve is turned clockwise to open the relay valve, and the warning light 302c and the buzzer 302d continuously issue warnings.

[0055] Preferably, the relay valve is turned counterclockwise to close the relay valve, and the warning light 302c and the buzzer 302d stop issuing warnings.

[0056] When in use, the warning light 302c flashes 5 times quickly and the buzzer 302d beeps 5 times to verify the integrity of the device with the self-check module 302b. After the alarm is activated, the warning light 302c flashes 3 times slowly every 1 minute, accompanied by the buzzer 302d beeps 3 times until the staff closes the relay valve.

[0057] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, which should all be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
