[0070] The present invention provides a multifunctional electrode for oil oxidation testing, which includes a main frame, an electrode plate, a metal coil, a terminal block and a mounting assembly 500; wherein the main frame includes an upper end cover 101, a lower end cover 102 and a plurality of columns 103, the plurality of columns 103 are circumferentially distributed along the lower surface of the upper end cover 101 and are vertically fixed between the upper end cover 101 and the lower end cover 102, and an internal cavity 104 is formed between the plurality of columns 103 and the upper end cover 101 and the lower end cover 102; the electrode plate includes two symmetrically arranged metal plates 300, and the two metal plates 300 are vertically arranged in the internal cavity 104; the metal coil (not shown in the figure) is formed by winding a metal wire along the outer surface of the plurality of columns 103; the terminal block is arranged Above the upper end cover 101, the wiring terminals include two first wiring terminals 401, two second wiring terminals 402 and multiple third wiring terminals 403; the two first wiring terminals 401 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of the two metal plates 300 to realize electric field loading; the two second wiring terminals 402 are respectively connected to the starting end and the ending end of the metal coil to realize magnetic field loading and oil metal corrosion testing; the third wiring terminals 403 are connected to the electronic components 4031 through wires, and the electronic components 4031 are located in the internal cavity 104 to realize the compatibility test of the oil and the electronic components 4031; the mounting assembly 500 is fixed below the upper end cover 101 and is located in the internal cavity 104, and is used to mount the compatibility test material 501.

[0071] Specifically, the upper end cover 101 is parallel to the lower end cover 102 and is separated by a plurality of vertically arranged columns 103 to form an internal cavity 104; the electrode plate and the terminal are both made of conductive materials, preferably metal conductive materials; the metal coil is wound with metal wires, and the metal wires are made of copper, silver, and iron, which are easily corroded by oil; the diameter of the metal wire is usually less than 0.5mm, preferably, the diameter of the metal wire is less than 0.25mm, but it is necessary to ensure that the metal wire has sufficient strength and is not easy to break; more preferably, the metal wire is made of copper and has a diameter of 0.2mm; there are at least two third terminal blocks 403, that is, a group, and can also be set to 4, each group of third terminal blocks 403 are symmetrically arranged, and the electronic components 4031 are connected to the symmetrically distributed third terminal blocks 403 through wires to realize the compatibility test of oil and electronic components 4031. The specific structure of the mounting assembly 500 is not limited here. The mounting assembly 500 is used to mount the compatibility testing material 501 in the internal cavity 104 to implement material compatibility testing.

[0072] As an example, the upper end cover 101 and the lower end cover 102 are both discs or rings.

[0073] As an example, a plurality of columns 103 are evenly distributed circumferentially along the lower surface of the upper end cover 101 , and at least three columns 103 are provided.

[0074] Specifically, the upper end cap 101 is a closed circular disc or partially hollow ring; the number of columns 103 can be three, four, five, or six. Preferably, the upper end cap 101 and the lower end cap 102 are discs or rings less than 10 mm thick, and at least three columns 103 greater than 10 mm in length ensure parallel and concentric alignment of the upper and lower end caps 101, 102. More preferably, the upper and lower end caps 101, 102 are 2 mm to 5 mm thick and have the same diameter.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1 As shown, the upper end cover 101 and the lower end cover 102 are hollow rings with the same diameter. The thickness of the upper end cover 101 is 2.0 mm. The parallelism and concentricity of the upper end cover 101 and the lower end cover 102 are achieved by six columns 103 with a length of 90 mm.

[0076] In one embodiment of the present invention, the upper end cover 101 is in the shape of a ring, and the end plate 105 is fixed to the ring-shaped upper end cover 101 via symmetrical second terminal blocks 402. The other first terminal blocks 401 and third terminal blocks 403 are also fixed to the end plate 105. The material of the end plate 105 is preferably polytetrafluoroethylene.

[0077] When the upper end cover 101 is in the shape of a disc, the end plate 105 may not be provided. In this case, the connection terminals are all symmetrically fixed on the upper end cover 101 .

[0078] As an example, a plurality of grooves 1031 are formed on the surface of each column 103 along the circumferential direction. The plurality of grooves 1031 are arranged parallel to each other, and the grooves 1031 are used to fix the metal wires.

[0079] For details, see Figure 1 Each column 103 is provided with a plurality of grooves 1031, with each pair of adjacent grooves 1031 arranged in parallel. The number of grooves 1031 provided on each column 103 should be consistent. The metal coil is formed by winding a metal wire along the outer surface of the plurality of columns 103. The starting end of the metal wire is connected to one of the second terminals 402, and the other end is wound along the grooves 1031 on the same plane. After winding one circle, it is wound around the groove 1031 on the next adjacent plane and then wound around. After winding around the groove 1031 on the last plane, the ending end of the metal wire is connected to another second terminal 402, thereby forming a metal coil. The metal wire is embedded in the grooves 1031 of the column 103 to prevent the metal wires on two adjacent planes from contacting each other.

[0080] In addition, in order to better fix the metal wire, two holes are opened on any column 103, and the two holes are respectively located at the upper and lower ends of the groove 1031. The starting end of the metal wire is connected to one of the second wiring terminals 402, and the other end passes through one hole and is wound into a metal coil on the column 103. The metal wire is embedded in the groove 1031 of the column 103, and the ending end of the metal wire passes through the other hole, so that the metal wire is connected to the other second wiring terminal 402. For the arrangement of the holes on the column, see Figure 1 Each column is provided with two holes, which makes the winding of the metal coil more diverse, but there is no restriction here. In actual application, any two holes can meet the use requirements.

[0081] As an example, each metal plate 300 includes an upper metal plate 301 and a lower metal plate 302 , the lateral spacing between the two upper metal plates 301 is greater than the lateral spacing between the two lower metal plates 302 , and the internal space between the two upper metal plates 301 is used to accommodate the compatibility test material 501 mounted on the mounting assembly 500 .

[0082] In one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 2The top of the upper metal plate 301 is also provided with a wiring ear, which has a fixing hole 3011. The first terminal 401 fixes the metal plate 300 to the lower surface of the upper end cover 101 through the corresponding fixing hole 3011. Then, each metal plate 300 is connected to the corresponding first terminal 401 through a wire to achieve electric field loading. After the tops of the two upper metal plates 301 are fixed, the distance between the two upper metal plates 301 is fixed. Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment of the present invention, the lateral distance between the two upper metal plates 301 is much greater than the lateral distance between the two lower metal plates 302 .

[0083] For example, see Figure 2 Each lower metal plate 302 has at least two threaded holes, and the insulating screws 3021 pass through the two corresponding threaded holes in sequence, and the lateral distance between the two lower metal plates 302 is adjusted by the insulating gasket 3023.

[0084] Specifically, each lower metal plate 302 has at least two threaded holes, and two, three or more threaded holes can be opened. There is no excessive restriction here, but it is necessary to ensure that the number of threaded holes opened on the two metal plates is the same, and the positions of the threaded holes are set correspondingly; the insulating gasket 3023 is set between the two lower metal plates 302 to separate the two lower metal plates 302. After the insulating screw 3021 passes through the two corresponding threaded holes, the open end of the insulating screw 3021 is fixed by the insulating nut 3022, thereby fixing the distance between the two lower metal plates 302.

[0085] In one example of the present invention, two lower metal plates 302 are located in the internal cavity 104, and the lateral spacing between the two lower metal plates 302 is adjusted by insulating screws 3021, insulating nuts 3022 and insulating gaskets 3023. Preferably, the lateral spacing is the thickness of the insulating gasket 3023, and the thickness of the insulating gasket 3023 is preferably 1 mm.

[0086] As an example, each lower metal plate 302 is provided with a circulation hole 3024 . The circulation hole 3024 is located between two adjacent threaded holes. The circulation hole 3024 is used for the circulation of oil.

[0087] For details, see Figure 2 Each lower metal plate 302 has two threaded holes, and the flow hole 3024 is located between the two threaded holes. If each lower metal plate 302 has three threaded holes, a flow hole 3024 can be opened between any two adjacent threaded holes. Of course, a flow hole 3024 can also be opened between every two adjacent threaded holes. There is no excessive restriction here, as long as the flow of oil is guaranteed.

[0088] As an example, the multifunctional electrode further includes a gripping mechanism 200 , which is fixed to the top end of the main frame. The multifunctional electrode is placed into or taken out of the oxidation container through the gripping mechanism 200 .

[0089] Preferably, the gripping mechanism 200 is located at a central position above the upper end cover 101 and is connected to the upper end cover 101 by screws.

[0090] In one example of the present invention, see Figure 1 When the upper end cover 101 is in a hollow circular ring, an end plate 105 is fixed to the upper surface of the upper end cover 101. The end plate 105 is arranged along the diameter direction of the upper end cover 101, and the gripping mechanism 200 is fixed to the central position of the end plate 105 by screws; preferably, the two ends of the end plate 105 are fixed to the circular ring of the upper end cover 101 through symmetrically arranged second wiring terminals 402; more preferably, the first wiring terminals 401 are symmetrically arranged on the end plate 105, and the third wiring terminals 403 are also arranged on the end plate 105.

[0091] Specifically, the end plate 105 is made of oil-resistant solid insulating material, preferably polytetrafluoroethylene. As an example, the gripping mechanism 200, the upper end cover 101, the lower end cover 102 and the column 103 are all made of oil-resistant solid insulating material.

[0092] Preferably, the gripping mechanism 200 , the upper end cover 101 , the lower end cover 102 and the column 103 are all made of polytetrafluoroethylene.

[0093] In addition, the present invention also provides an oil oxidation test system, which includes the multifunctional electrode for oil oxidation test described above, as well as compatibility test material 501, electronic components 4031, an electromagnetic field loading unit, a test unit, and a control unit;

[0094] Wherein, the compatibility test material 501 is hung on the mounting component 500;

[0096] The electromagnetic field loading unit includes an electric field loading power supply 601 and a magnetic field loading power supply 602. The electric field loading power supply 601 is connected to the two first wiring terminals 401 via wires to achieve electric field loading during the oil test; the magnetic field loading power supply 602 is connected to the two second wiring terminals 402 via wires to excite the magnetic field through the metal coil to achieve magnetic field loading during the oil test.

[0097] The test unit includes a resistance test device 603, a withstand voltage test device 604, an impedance test device 605, and an electronic test device 606. The resistance test device 603 is connected to the two second terminals 402 via wires to test the metal corrosion performance of the oil. The withstand voltage test device 604 is connected to the two first terminals 401 via wires to test the breakdown voltage during the oil test.

[0099] Specifically, the electric field loading power supply 601 includes a DC power supply or an AC power supply, and the electric field loading power supply 601 is connected to the two first terminals 401 of the electrode plate through a wire combination control unit, thereby realizing electric field loading during the oil test process; the magnetic field loading power supply 602 includes a DC power supply or an AC power supply, and the magnetic field loading power supply 602 is connected to the two first terminals 401 of the metal coil through a wire combination control unit, and the magnetic field is excited by the metal coil, thereby realizing magnetic field loading during the oil test process; the resistance testing device 603 is connected to the two second terminals 402 of the metal coil through a wire combination control unit. When the oil corrodes the metal wire, the diameter of the metal wire is deformed and its resistance value Increased, thereby testing the metal corrosion performance of the oil; the withstand voltage test equipment 604 is connected to the two first terminals 401 of the electrode plate through a wire combination control unit, thereby realizing the test of the breakdown voltage during the oil test; the impedance test equipment 605 is connected to the two first terminals 401 of the electrode plate through a wire combination control unit, thereby realizing the test of the impedance value during the oil test; the electronic components 4031 include electronic components 4031 such as capacitors and resistors, and the electronic components 4031 are connected to the third terminal 403 through a wire, and then combined with related electronic testing equipment 606 such as capacitors, electronics and oscilloscopes to realize real-time performance testing of the electronic components 4031 under oil immersion conditions.
