[0025] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[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 does it refer to a separate or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive with other embodiments.
[0028] Secondly, the present invention is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagram. When describing the embodiments of the present invention in detail, for the sake of convenience, the cross-sectional diagrams showing the device structure will not be partially enlarged according to the general scale, and the schematic diagrams are only examples, which should not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. In addition, in actual production, the three-dimensional dimensions of length, width and depth should be included.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] Reference Figure 1 , which is the first embodiment of the present invention, provides a grounding hanging ring suitable for an outdoor cable terminal head, the device includes a terminal 100 for connecting to the outdoor cable terminal head; a grounding ring 200 for hanging a grounding wire; a connecting module 300 for connecting the terminal 100 with the grounding ring 200; and an insulating protective cover 400 for protecting the grounding ring 200.
[0031] Specifically, the grounding ring 200 is composed of a part perpendicular to the ground and a part parallel to the ground, forming a structure similar to a rectangle folded vertically along the center line. Grounding wires can be hung at all positions of the grounding ring 200. The connection module 300 also includes a fixed rotating shaft, and the insulating protective cover 400 opens around the rotating shaft to facilitate the access of the grounding wire clamp.
[0032] The wiring terminal 100 is designed to be directly connected to an outdoor cable terminal head. By using fasteners such as nuts, the wiring terminal 100 can be firmly fixed on the cable terminal head to ensure the reliability and safety of the electrical connection.
[0033] The grounding ring 200 consists of two parts, one part is perpendicular to the ground, and the other part is parallel to the ground, forming a structure similar to a rectangle folded vertically along the center line. This design means that no matter where the operator stands, he can easily find a suitable hanging point to hang the grounding wire, which greatly improves work efficiency and reduces potential operation risks.
[0034] The connection module 300 acts as a bridge, connecting the terminal block 100 with the grounding ring 200. More importantly, it cleverly extends the grounding ring 200 slightly outward, thereby increasing the operating space and reducing the inconvenience caused by space limitations. The connection module 300 also includes a fixed rotating shaft, which is designed to match the insulation protection cover 400.
[0035] Considering that the grounding ring 200 is easily corroded or aged due to long-term exposure to the outdoor environment, the design of the insulating protective cover 400 is particularly important. The protective cover completely covers the grounding ring 200, which not only plays a physical protection role, but also provides an insulating effect. In particular, the protective cover can be opened by rotating around the fixed rotating axis in the connection module 300, so that when the grounding wire needs to be hung, the operator can use the grounding wire clamp to easily push open the protective cover and complete the grounding operation.
[0036] Overall, this design not only solves the problem of limited operating space and limited mounting positions, but also improves the durability and safety of the device by adding insulation protection measures. These innovations work together to significantly improve the limitations of traditional grounding rings in practical applications.
[0037] Example 2
[0038] Reference Figures 1-2 , which is the second embodiment of the present invention. This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that the insulating protection cover 400 adopts a triangular prism-like design. The insulating protection cover 400 includes two side protection covers and a front protection cover. The protection cover is connected to the grounding ring 200 through a rotating shaft and can be opened at any time when needed.
[0039] Furthermore, the connection between the wiring terminal 100 and the outdoor cable terminal head is a threaded connection, the wiring terminal 100 is connected to the outdoor cable terminal head through a nut, and the material of the grounding ring 200 is corrosion-resistant material.
[0040] When in use, the insulating protective cover 400 adopts a triangular prism-like design, which is not only beautiful but also highly functional. Specifically, the insulating protective cover 400 is composed of two side protective covers and a front protective cover, which together form a complete protective shell that completely covers the grounding ring 200. This design has several important benefits: first, it can effectively prevent the grounding ring 200 from corrosion or aging due to long-term exposure to the sun and rain in the outdoor environment; second, the triangular prism-like shape helps rainwater or other foreign matter slide down the oblique edge, avoiding accumulation of water or debris, and further protecting the internal structure. The insulating protective cover 400 is connected to the grounding ring 200 through a rotating shaft, which allows the protective cover to be easily opened when the grounding wire needs to be hung, while also ensuring that it can be tightly closed when not in use, thereby providing continuous protection.
[0041] The connection between the terminal block 100 and the outdoor cable terminal head adopts a threaded connection, which is a very reliable and easy-to-install method. The terminal block 100 is fixed to the outdoor cable terminal head by a nut to ensure a firm and stable electrical connection between the two. The advantage of the threaded connection is that it is easy and quick to install, and it is also easy to disassemble, which is conducive to future maintenance and replacement. In addition, this connection method can also provide good mechanical strength and remain stable even in adverse weather conditions.
[0042] Regarding the material selection of the grounding ring 200, this design uses corrosion-resistant materials. This is crucial because the grounding ring 200 will be exposed to the outdoor environment for a long time and is easily affected by various corrosion factors. The grounding ring 200 made of corrosion-resistant materials can not only effectively resist erosion in the natural environment and extend its service life, but also ensure that it can maintain good electrical conductivity even after long-term use, thereby ensuring the safety of power system operation. In summary, by optimizing the design of the insulating protective cover 400, adopting a reliable connection method and selecting high-quality materials, this invention not only improves the durability of the equipment, but also greatly enhances the convenience and safety of power system maintenance work.
[0043] Example 3
[0044] Reference Figures 1 to 3 , which is the third embodiment of the present invention.
[0045] The operation process of the device is as follows: first, the terminal block 100 is threadedly connected to the outdoor cable terminal head through a nut to ensure that a stable electrical contact is established between the two. Then, the grounding ring 200 is fixed to the terminal block 100 through the connection module 300, so that the grounding ring 200 extends slightly outward to increase the operating space. Finally, the insulating protective cover 400 is installed in place, closed and fixed around the grounding ring 200 through a rotating shaft to protect the grounding ring 200 from the influence of the external environment.
[0046] When the grounding ring 200 needs to be hooked, the operator only needs to use the grounding wire clamp to gently push the front part of the insulating protective cover 400, and the protective cover will automatically open around the rotation axis to expose the grounding ring 200 inside. Then, the operator can quickly find a suitable hooking position, hang the grounding wire clamp on the grounding ring 200, and complete the grounding operation. After the operation is completed, the grounding wire clamp is removed, and the insulating protective cover 400 will naturally close under the action of gravity, restoring the protection state of the grounding ring 200.
