Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of dust prevention and protection of carbon brushes at a collector ring of a generator, and in particular to a magnetic dust prevention and protection device and method for carbon brushes at a collector ring of a large generator. Background Art

[0002] In the power system, the slip ring room of a large generator is equipped with important equipment such as rotating shafts, collector rings, conductive plates, carbon brushes, pole leads, excitation cables, and various sensors. Usually, during maintenance work, it is necessary to clean important equipment such as collector rings and carbon brushes to ensure the safe and stable operation of the equipment in the generator slip ring room. After the collector rings and carbon brushes are cleaned, there are often other teams or other slip ring rooms that need to be polished and painted. Due to the large number of equipment inside the slip ring room and the complex and irregular structure, plastic film is usually used for protection, which not only wastes time, manpower, and material resources, but also has incomplete protection, is easy to fall off, and has poor protection effect. Collector rings and carbon brushes are usually contaminated. When paint powder adheres to the surface of collector rings and carbon brushes, the surface becomes unclean. When the temperature of collector rings and carbon brushes reaches above 80°C during operation, it may cause the local temperature of collector rings and carbon brushes to be too high, seriously affecting the normal operation of large generator sets.

[0003] It can be seen that the dustproof structure of the current collector ring carbon brush still has room for improvement. It should be optimized to improve the dustproof effect of the dustproof structure, facilitate operation, reduce environmental pollution, and maintain the safe and stable operation and service life of the collector ring. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a more reasonable technical solution to solve the technical problems existing in the existing technology. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention proposes a magnetic dust protection device and method for the collector ring carbon brush of a large generator, which solves the dust protection problem of the collector ring, carbon brush and other heavy pressure equipment in the generator slip ring chamber proposed in the above background technology, and solves the problems of the original method of using plastic film for dust protection, wasting time, manpower and material resources, incomplete protection, easy to fall off, and poor protection effect. It is used to improve work efficiency, enhance the protection of the collector ring carbon brush of the slip ring chamber, reduce environmental pollution caused by the use of disposable plastic film, and avoid secondary pollution of equipment after cleaning, so as to ensure the long-term safe and stable operation of large generators.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the protective device disclosed in the present invention can adopt the following technical solutions:

[0006] A magnetic dust protection device for a collector ring and carbon brush of a large generator comprises an upper dust cover and a lower dust cover, wherein the inner diameter enclosed by the upper dust cover is smaller than the inner diameter enclosed by the lower dust cover, and a connecting portion is provided between the upper dust cover and the lower dust cover; the upper dust cover is provided with an upper magnetic structure for adsorbing and fitting the upper dust cover to the periphery of a rotating shaft fixing area of ​​a generator structure; the lower dust cover is provided with a lower magnetic structure for adsorbing and fitting the lower dust cover to the collector ring and the periphery of a carbon brush of the generator structure; the connecting portion is used to cover the connecting area between the rotating shaft and the collector ring.

When the above scheme is adopted, a number of small card bags can be arranged in the bag cavity to respectively set the magnets. In some other schemes, the magnetic bag can also be set as an openable structure to facilitate the removal and placement of magnets.

[0014] Furthermore, in more schemes, the magnetic suction bag can be arranged in other ways, and its structure is not limited to a single one. Here, an optimization is made and one of the feasible options is proposed: the magnetic suction bags are arranged at intervals, and each magnetic suction bag is provided with a magnet; when the upper dust cover or the lower dust cover surrounds and fits the generator structure, the magnetic suction bags are evenly spaced along the circumference. When the above scheme is adopted, a magnet is provided in each magnetic suction bag.

[0015] Furthermore, in order to more easily match the protective dustproof device with the generator structure, an optimization is performed here, and one feasible option is proposed: the upper dust cover, the lower dust cover and the connecting part all include a flat cloth surface, and corresponding connecting pieces are arranged on both sides of the cloth surface.
