Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of anti-stealing electricity for terminal blocks, and specifically to an anti-stealing electricity device and control method applied to terminal blocks. Background Technique

[0002] With the continuous development of the power system, the protection and management of power resources have become increasingly important. Among them, preventing electricity theft is an important part. According to numerous electricity theft cases, electricity theft mostly starts from the metering device. Among them, changing the current loop is the main means of electricity theft adopted by illegal personnel at present. Changing the current loop means short-circuiting at the incoming and outgoing terminal buttons of the watt-hour meter. For those with current transformers, short-circuiting is carried out at the terminal block and junction box through wires.

[0003] The incoming and outgoing wires of the power metering device are generally connected to the incoming and outgoing wires through terminal blocks. The traditional terminal block structure is usually exposed in the metering cabinet. After opening the metering cabinet, reducing metering or not metering can be achieved by loosening the terminal posts on the terminal block, so as to achieve the purpose of electricity theft. Due to the large number of terminal posts on the terminal block, it is difficult to detect this electricity theft method if the terminal posts are not checked one by one. The traditional method needs to avoid it by strengthening the intensity of electricity use inspection and establishing a watt-hour meter reading and inspection system, relying on manual supervision, which seems powerless in the face of complex electricity theft means, greatly wasting on-site human resources, and having a small scope of application, and there are also certain limitations in practical applications.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an anti-stealing electricity device and control method applied to terminal blocks to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0016] On the other hand, a control method for an anti-stealing electricity device applied to the above-mentioned terminal block is provided, including the following steps:

[0018] S2: The data processing module analyzes and processes the acquired distance information;

[0019] S3: When the processing result of the distance information is abnormal, the alarm module is triggered to alarm.

[0020] Preferably, the step S2 is specifically:

[0021] Pre-store the maximum distance threshold from the connection board to the terminal block in the data processing module, compare the collected distance information with the maximum distance threshold, and when the collected distance information is greater than the maximum distance threshold, mark the distance information at this time as abnormal.

[0023] Send the abnormal signal to the alarm module through the data transmission module to trigger the alarm of the alarm device, and at the same time send the abnormal data to the service platform through the wireless transmission unit of the data transmission module to trigger remote alarm.

[0037] Embodiment 1:

[0038] As Figures 1-3 shown, this embodiment provides an anti-stealing electricity device applied to a terminal block. The main structure includes a connection mechanism, a tightening mechanism, a wire routing mechanism and a control and alarm mechanism. The connection mechanism is a connecting plate 1 with a rectangular plate-like structure. Tightening mechanisms are respectively arranged on both sides of the connecting plate 1. A wire routing mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the two tightening mechanisms. A control mechanism 4 is arranged on the bottom surface of the connecting plate 1.

[0039] Among them, the tightening mechanism includes a terminal clamping box 2. The terminal clamping box 2 has a hollow cuboid structure. A first opening 5 is arranged on the bottom surface of the terminal clamping box 2. The plane where the first opening 5 is located is on the same horizontal plane as the bottom surface of the connecting plate 1. An extension plate 3 is arranged at the lower end of the side wall of the terminal clamping box 2 far from the connecting plate 1. A wire routing mechanism is arranged at the bottom of the extension plate 3. A second opening is arranged through the top surface of the terminal clamping box 2, and the second opening also penetrates the top end of the side wall of the electronic clamping box far from the connecting plate 1. The wire routing mechanism includes a groove 7 with an opening downward. The side wall of the groove 7 penetrates the side wall of the connecting plate 1. The length of the groove opening of the groove 7 is the same as the width of the second opening.

[0040] In this embodiment, the length of the groove opening of the groove 7 is slightly larger than the diameter of the wire connected to the terminal of the terminal block. When installing this device, find the baffles on both sides of a single terminal in the terminal block, align the second openings of the two terminal clamping boxes 2 on both sides of this device with the baffles on both sides of the terminal, and at the same time align the groove 7 with the wires on both sides of the terminal, push it in and clamp it. Then use a cable tie or a lead seal to successively bypass the second openings and the groove 7 of the two terminal clamping boxes 2 on both sides to fix this device and the terminal block.

[0041] The control mechanism 4 is specifically an integrated circuit board, including a power supply module, a data processing module, a data acquisition module, a data transmission module, and an alarm module. The power supply module is electrically connected to the data processing module, the data acquisition module, the data transmission module, and the alarm module respectively. The data processing module is data-connected to the data acquisition module and the data transmission module respectively. The data transmission module is data-connected to the alarm module.

[0042] In this embodiment, the power supply module is a step-down transformer. The wire led out from the terminal block is connected to the step-down transformer, and after voltage reduction, it supplies power to the control mechanism 4.

[0043] The data processing module is specifically a single-chip microcomputer.

[0044] The data acquisition module is specifically a micro electronic rangefinder.

[0045] The data transmission module includes a wireless transmission unit, specifically a 4G / 5G wireless transmission module. The data transmission module also includes a wired communication connection line, and the wired communication connection line is connected to the alarm module.

[0046] The alarm module is specifically a buzzer.

[0047] As Figure 4 shown, this embodiment also provides an anti-stealing electricity device applied to the above terminal block, including the following steps:

[0048] S1: The data acquisition module acquires the distance information from the connecting plate 1 to the terminal block.

[0049] S2: The data processing module analyzes and processes the acquired distance information.

[0050] S3: When the processing result of the distance information is abnormal, trigger the alarm module to alarm.

[0051] The maximum distance threshold from the connecting plate 1 to the terminal block is pre-stored in the data processing module. The acquired distance information is compared with the maximum distance threshold. When the acquired distance information is greater than the maximum distance threshold, the distance information at this time is marked as abnormal.

[0052] Under normal circumstances, since the integrated circuit board is provided between the connecting plate 1 and the terminal block, according to the thickness of the integrated circuit board, the maximum distance threshold can be set to the thickness value of the circuit board.

[0053] The abnormal signal is sent to the alarm module through the data transmission module to trigger the alarm of the alarm device, and at the same time, the abnormal data is sent to the service platform through the wireless transmission unit of the data transmission module to trigger remote alarm.

[0054] Embodiment 2:

[0055] As Figure 5 shown, this embodiment provides an anti - electricity - stealing device for a terminal block with a battery compartment 8 added. Since the control system needs to work with power, if the terminal block is powered off before an electricity - stealing behavior occurs, the control mechanism 4 inside the device will not be able to work properly. After adding a power supply, the control mechanism 4 of the whole device is independently powered, avoiding the situation where the device cannot trigger an alarm when disassembled after the terminal block is powered off.

[0056] Embodiment 3:

[0057] Based on Embodiment 2, a low - power consumption module is added to the control mechanism 4, and a wake - up mechanism is set for the low - power consumption module. Since the terminal block is generally placed in a power distribution cabinet or a distribution box, and the cabinet doors and box doors of the power distribution cabinet or distribution box are in a normally closed state, in this embodiment, a light sensor is set on the outer side of the connecting plate 1, and a minimum threshold is set for the light intensity that the light sensor can receive. When the light intensity is greater than the minimum threshold, the control mechanism 4 is woken up. The light sensor in this embodiment can be independently powered by the terminal block. This setting method can reduce the power consumption of this device and achieve the purpose of energy conservation and emission reduction.

[0058] The above is a specific description of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make various equivalent deformations or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent deformations or substitutions are all included in the scope defined by the claims of this application.
