DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0027] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0028] The present invention provides a high-strength cross-arm structure for an electric tower cross arm, including a cross-arm body. An installation hole 2 is provided on the cross-arm body 1. Aiming at the problem that the cross-arm structure is likely to affect the structural strength due to stress concentration, accumulation of bird droppings and dust, this solution optimizes the cross-arm structure from three aspects to enhance the structural strength of the cross-arm.
[0029] Embodiment 1
[0030] By optimizing the cross-arm body 1, the stress distribution of the cross-arm body 1 during use is made uniform, stress concentration is avoided, and the structural strength at the opening of the cross-arm body 1 is increased, further improving the strength of the cross-arm structure, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown. A fillet is provided at the turning point of the hole profile of the installation hole 2. The fillet is used to make the stress distribution of the cross-arm body 1 during use more uniform and reduce the stress concentration of the installation hole 2. A reinforcing rib plate 7 is provided at the bottom of the installation hole 2. The reinforcing rib plate 7 can be used to improve the strength and stiffness at the installation hole 2, and further improve the strength of the cross-arm structure. A fillet is also provided at the turning point of the profile of the reinforcing rib plate 7, so that the stress is evenly distributed at the reinforcing rib plate 7 and stress concentration is avoided.
[0031] Embodiment 2
[0032] By protecting the flat part between the two installation holes 2 in the cross-arm structure, the accumulation and corrosion of sundries such as bird droppings in this part of the cross-arm structure are avoided, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown.
[0033] A protective structure is provided on the cross-arm body 1. The protective structure is arranged between two adjacent mounting holes 2. By using the protective structure to wrap the flat part of the cross-arm structure, the mechanical strength of the cross-arm structure is improved. The protective structure includes a connecting cylinder 3. A through hole adapted to the cross-arm body 1 is provided on the connecting cylinder 3, and the cross-arm body 1 is installed in the through hole. A rotating cylinder 4 is movably connected to the outer circle of the connecting cylinder 3. Blades 5 are evenly and fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the rotating cylinder 4. Under the action of wind, the wind can blow the blades 5 to rotate, and the blades 5 drive the rotating cylinder 4 to rotate, thus solving the problem of birds building nests or staying on it, and further reducing the probability of bird droppings remaining on the cross-arm structure. To further improve the effect of the protective structure, a reflective strip 6 is provided on one side of the blade 5. By using the reflective strip 6, the bird repelling range of the protective structure can be expanded, further reducing the probability of bird droppings remaining on the cross-arm structure, and preventing birds from leaving droppings on other parts of the cross-arm structure.
[0034] Moreover, the blades 5 and the outer side wall of the rotating cylinder 4 have a smooth transition, so that the stress distribution at the connection part of the blades 5 and the rotating cylinder 4 is uniform, avoiding stress concentration.
[0035] In addition, to reduce the friction between the rotating cylinder 4 and the connecting cylinder 3, a self-lubricating structure is provided between the rotating cylinder 4 and the connecting cylinder 3. The self-lubricating structure can be a solid lubricant. The self-lubricating structure can be arranged on the inner wall of the rotating cylinder 4, and the rotating cylinder 4 is made of a high thermal conductivity material, such as aluminum alloy, to reduce the melting speed of the self-lubricating structure and extend the service life of the self-lubricating structure.
[0036] Embodiment 3
[0037] To address the problem of dust, rain, and snow accumulating on the cross-arm structure, a dust blowing structure is designed in this solution. By using the dust blowing structure, the dust, rain, and snow falling on the cross-arm structure can be blown away, preventing the accumulation of dust, rain, and snow on the cross-arm structure and avoiding the destruction of the force balance of the cross-arm structure by dust, rain, and snow. As Figures 1 to 8 shown.
[0038] The connecting cylinder 3 is provided with a power chamber 15. In the middle of one side of the power chamber 15, an airbag 9 is fixedly connected. At both ends of the through hole, there are dust blowing plates 8 adapted to the cross-arm body 1, and an air flow discharge groove 16 is formed between the dust blowing plate 8 and the cross-arm body 1. The inner cavity of the airbag 9 is connected to the inner cavity of the wall of the dust blowing plate 8 through a pipeline 18. When the airbag 9 is squeezed, the gas in the airbag 9 can enter the inner cavity of the dust blowing plate 8 through the pipeline 18. The gas in the dust blowing plate 8 enters the air flow discharge groove 16 through the spray holes opened on its inner side wall. The air flow ejected from the air flow discharge groove 16 can blow off the sundries such as dust, rain and snow accumulated on the cross-arm body 1. When the restriction on the airbag 9 is released, the resilience of the airbag 9 enables the airbag 9 to return to its original state, and the outside air can flow back into the airbag 9 through the dust blowing plate 8 and the pipeline 18. And a dust filter screen is arranged on the inner side wall of the dust blowing plate 8 to prevent dust from entering the airbag 9.
[0039] Since the sizes of the air flow discharge groove 16 and the spray holes are small, noise is easily generated when the air flow is ejected. In this scheme, sound-absorbing plates 17 are arranged on the inner side wall of the dust blowing plate 8 and the end of the connecting cylinder 3 to reduce the noise generated when the cross-arm structure is used, and the pipeline 18 passes through the sound-absorbing plate 17.
[0040] At the other end of the power chamber 15, a first extrusion rod 10 and a second extrusion rod 11 are movably connected. A positioning rod 12 is movably connected in the inner cavity of the power chamber 15. At both ends of the positioning rod 12, torsion springs 13 are fixedly connected, and the other ends of the torsion springs 13 are fixedly connected to the connecting cylinder 3. The positioning rod 12 is connected to the first extrusion rod 10 or the second extrusion rod 11. One ends of both the first extrusion rod 10 and the second extrusion rod 11 are in contact with the airbag 9, and the airbag 9 is located between the first extrusion rod 10 and the second extrusion rod 11. The rotation direction of the first extrusion rod 10 is the same as that of the second extrusion rod 11. The inner wall of the rotating cylinder 4 is uniformly fixedly connected with pushing strips 14, and the pushing strips 14 are movably connected to the power chamber 15. The other ends of both the first extrusion rod 10 and the second extrusion rod 11 are located in the rotation plane of the pushing strips 14. That is, when the rotating cylinder 4 drives the pushing strips 14 to rotate, the pushing strips 14 can extrude the first extrusion rod 10 and the second extrusion rod 11, so that the other end of the first extrusion rod 10 or the other end of the second extrusion rod 11 can extrude the airbag 9. At the same time, the first extrusion rod 10 and the second extrusion rod 11 perform circular motion with the positioning rod 12 as the center. The pushing strips 14 can be staggered from the first extrusion rod 10 and the second extrusion rod 11. When the first extrusion rod 10 and the second extrusion rod 11 are staggered from the pushing strips 14, under the action of the resilience of the torsion spring 13, the first extrusion rod 10 or the second extrusion rod 11 can be reset.
[0041] Through the above description, wind power can be used as the power source of the dust blowing structure, so that the dust blowing structure does not need to be provided with another power source, which is convenient for the use of the cross-arm structure.
[0042] The outer surfaces of both the rotating cylinder 4 and the cross-arm body 1 are provided with a protective coating, which can be an anti-sticking coating, facilitating the cleaning of dust, rain and snow.
[0043] In summary: When the high-strength cross-arm structure of the electric tower cross-arm is in use, the mounting holes 2 are optimized to avoid stress concentration at the mounting holes 2, making the stress distribution uniform, and the reinforcing rib plates 7 are used to improve the structural strength and stiffness at the mounting holes 2, thereby enhancing the strength of the cross-arm structure and facilitating the application of this cross-arm structure in the electric tower cross-arm.
[0044] This cross-arm structure uses a protective structure to drive away birds, preventing birds from staying on this cross-arm structure and reducing the probability of this cross-arm structure being corroded by bird droppings. Moreover, the protective structure can serve as the power source for the dust-blowing structure. The wind drives the rotation of the rotating cylinder 4, the rotating cylinder 4 drives the rotation of the push bar 14, and the push bar 14 drives the first extrusion rod 10 or the second extrusion rod 11 to extrude the airbag 9. The gas in the airbag 9 enters the air flow discharge groove 16 through the pipeline 18 and the dust-blowing plate 8, and is sprayed onto the cross-arm structure through the air flow discharge groove 16 to clean the cross-arm structure of dust and remove rain and snow, avoiding dust, rain and snow from damaging the force balance of the cross-arm structure, thereby enhancing the strength of the cross-arm structure.
[0045] The standard parts used in the present invention can all be purchased from the market. The special-shaped parts can be customized according to the descriptions in the specification and the drawings. The specific connection methods of each part all adopt conventional means such as bolts that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment all adopt conventional models in the prior art, which will not be elaborated here.
