Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cable joint explosion-proof boxes, in particular to an intelligent explosion-proof box for a cable intermediate joint. Background Art
[0002] Power cables are used to transmit and distribute electrical energy. They are commonly used in urban underground power grids, power station outgoing lines, internal power supplies for industrial and mining enterprises, and underwater transmission lines across rivers and seas. Cables are an increasingly important component of power lines. Cable joints are the weakest link in a cable, so they require protection. They are crucial connections in power supply networks, and their stability directly impacts the proper functioning of the entire network. Explosion-proof boxes are one such example.

For example, Chinese patent publication number CN 209709656 U discloses a waterproof explosion-proof box for cable intermediate joints. This box only utilizes the explosion-proof properties of the left and right box bodies to achieve an explosion-proof effect. This results in poor explosion-proof performance and a high risk of fire inside the box body, posing a significant safety hazard. Summary of the Invention

[0022] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present invention without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] Example: See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 The present invention provides an intelligent explosion-proof box for cable intermediate joints, and the technical solution is as follows:
[0024] A smart explosion-proof box for a cable intermediate joint comprises an upper explosion-proof box body 1 and a lower explosion-proof box body 2, the upper explosion-proof box body 1 and the lower explosion-proof box body 2 being fixed by bolts, a receiving box 3 being fixedly provided at the upper end of the upper explosion-proof box body 1, the interior of the receiving box 3 being filled with sodium bicarbonate particles 4, a plurality of heat-conducting rods 5 being slidably provided inside the receiving box 3, one end of the heat-conducting rod 5 passing through the upper explosion-proof box body 1 and being fixedly connected to a heat-collecting piston 6 arranged on the inner side of the upper explosion-proof box body 1, an explosion-proof cylinder 7 being fixedly provided on the inner side wall of the upper explosion-proof box body 1, an airbag 8 being provided inside the explosion-proof cylinder 7.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, waterproof blockages 9 are provided on the inner walls at both ends of the upper explosion-proof box body 1 and the lower explosion-proof box body 2, and anti-slip blocks 10 are fixedly provided on the inner walls at both ends of the upper explosion-proof box body 1 and the lower explosion-proof box body 2. The provision of the waterproof blockages 9 can improve the waterproof effect of the explosion-proof box body, and the anti-slip blocks 10 can contact the cables to improve the stability of the cables.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment, an air distribution plate 11 is fixedly arranged between the two anti-slip blocks 10 on the inner side of the upper explosion-proof box body 1, and an air supply pipe 12 is arranged at the upper end of the air distribution plate 11. One end of the air supply pipe 12 is connected to the internal cavity of the storage box 3. The setting of the air distribution plate 11 can make the air inside the explosion-proof box body uniformly distributed.
[0027] In a preferred embodiment, a filter is provided at the connection point between the gas pipe 12 and the containing box 3 , and a plurality of nozzles 13 are provided at the bottom end of the air distribution plate 11 . The filter can prevent the sodium bicarbonate particles 4 from entering the gas pipe 12 .
[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the heat collecting piston 6 is movably arranged inside the piston cylinder 14, and a first buffer spring 15 is fixedly arranged on the inner wall of the heat collecting piston 6, a piston plate 16 is slidingly arranged inside the explosion-proof cylinder 7, and a second buffer spring 17 is fixedly arranged on the upper end of the piston plate 16, and the airbag 8 is arranged above the piston plate 16. During specific use, if an explosion impact occurs inside the explosion-proof box body, the impact force pushes the heat collecting piston 6 and the piston plate 16, so that the heat collecting piston 6 and the piston plate 16 squeeze the first buffer spring 15 and the second buffer spring 17 respectively, thereby achieving a buffering effect and reducing the scope of the explosion.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, the interior of the airbag 8 is filled with inert gas, a connecting pipe 18 is provided on the airbag 8, and one end of the connecting pipe 18 is connected to the air distribution plate 11, and a pressure valve 19 is provided on the connecting pipe 18. When the piston plate 16 slides inside the explosion-proof cylinder 7, it can squeeze the airbag 8, so that the internal pressure of the airbag 8 increases. When the preset value of the pressure valve 19 is reached, the pressure valve 19 opens, and the inert gas inside the airbag 8 enters the air distribution plate 11 and is blown out.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, a pressure relief valve 20 and a control box 21 are provided at the outer end of the upper explosion-proof box body 1, a trigger protrusion 22 is fixedly provided on the upper end of one of the piston plates 16, and a trigger button 23 is provided on the inner wall of the explosion-proof cylinder 7 directly above the trigger protrusion 22, and a controller and a wireless transmission module are provided inside the control box 21. After the pressure relief valve 20 is opened, the strong pressure inside the explosion-proof box body can be released, and the abnormal data can be transmitted to the remote control terminal by using the wireless transmission module, which is convenient for the staff to handle it in time and locate the abnormal cable middle joint.
[0031] Working principle of the present invention:
[0032] When in use, place the two cables in the lower explosion-proof box body 2 and connect the two cables, then dock and fix the upper explosion-proof box body 1 with the lower explosion-proof box body 2. If an explosion occurs inside the explosion-proof box body during use, the internal temperature will rise sharply. After the heat collecting piston 6 heats up, it transfers heat to the heat conducting rod 5. After the temperature of the heat conducting rod 5 inside the receiving box 3 rises, the sodium bicarbonate particles 4 inside the receiving box 3 are decomposed by heat. The sodium bicarbonate particles 4 absorb heat when decomposing, which can cool the explosion-proof box body and produce more carbon dioxide gas. The carbon dioxide gas enters the air distribution plate 11 through the gas pipe 12 and blows air into the interior of the explosion-proof box body through the air distribution plate 11. The impact force of the explosion can cause the heat collecting piston 6 and the piston plate 16 to slide inside the piston cylinder 14 and the explosion-proof cylinder 7 to squeeze the first buffer spring 15 and the second buffer spring. 17. It can buffer the impact force of the explosion, and the piston plate 16 squeezes the airbag 8 when it slides. The pressure inside the airbag 8 is relatively high, and the pressure valve 19 opens. The inert gas inside the airbag 8 enters the air distribution plate 11 through the connecting pipe 18, and the air distribution plate 11 blows inert gas into the interior of the explosion-proof box body. Since the air distribution plate 11 blows more carbon dioxide gas and inert gas into the interior of the explosion-proof box body, the oxygen content inside the explosion-proof box body is relatively low, which can prevent combustion from occurring inside the explosion-proof box body. When the pressure inside the explosion-proof box body is relatively high, the pressure relief valve 20 opens to relieve pressure. When the piston plate 16 moves to a certain position, the trigger protrusion 22 contacts the trigger button 23. The controller transmits the abnormal information inside the explosion-proof box body to the remote control terminal through the wireless communication module, and the staff can deal with the abnormal cable intermediate joint in time.
[0033] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and all variations within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included therein. Any reference sign in a claim should not be construed as limiting the claim to which it relates.
