Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of high-voltage electric power equipment, in particular to a fully-insulated high-voltage gas-filled cabinet. Background Art
[0002] The fully insulated high-voltage gas-filled cabinet is a high-voltage switchgear widely used in power distribution systems. It is mainly used for power distribution, protection and control of medium and high voltage power grids (such as 10kV-35kV). The device adopts a fully enclosed structure and is filled with SF6 gas or other insulating gases as an insulating medium. It forms insulation protection around key electrical components (such as circuit breakers, busbars, switches) to prevent arcing, partial discharge and interference from the external environment (such as moisture and dust). The gas-filled cabinet has the advantages of compact structure, reliable operation, high safety and low maintenance requirements. It is widely used in urban distribution stations, industrial parks, wind farms and extreme environments (such as coastal and high-altitude areas). Its core components include the gas-filled box (including the main gas chamber), electrical components, sealing system and heat dissipation mechanism. Gas circulation, pressure maintenance and heat management are achieved through mechanical or electrical control means to ensure long-term and stable operation of the equipment.
[0003] Existing fully insulated high-voltage gas cabinets still have several defects in practical applications. First, the pressure distribution of SF6 gas is relatively simple, making it difficult to dynamically adjust according to the temperature or electric field strength differences in the electrical component area. As a result, local discharge may occur in high-load areas due to insufficient gas pressure, and the gas pressure in low-load areas may be too high, increasing sealing stress. Secondly, the internal heat distribution is uneven, and high-heating components (such as circuit breakers) are prone to local overheating, which affects the life of the components. Traditional heat dissipation mechanisms (such as fixed heat exchange tubes or external heat sinks) have limited efficiency and are easily affected by external dust or moisture, increasing the maintenance burden. In addition, during long-term operation, SF6 gas may produce byproducts (such as SOF2 and HF) due to arc decomposition, which block the heat exchange channel and reduce heat dissipation efficiency. Existing designs mostly rely on electronic control systems (such as sensors and solenoid valves) to achieve gas management and heat dissipation, which increases complexity and failure risks. Especially in high-temperature, vibration or remote unmanned scenarios, there is a lack of reliable solutions with purely mechanical structures, which limits the environmental adaptability and long-term stability of the equipment.

[0020] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0021] 1. This invention uses a flexible airbag and a thermosensitive elastic membrane to sense pressure and temperature changes in the main gas chamber. This, combined with the hollow float and U-shaped connecting rod of the pressure-responsive distribution assembly, dynamically adjusts the flow of SF6 gas. In high-temperature areas, the airbag expands to draw in gas, enhancing insulation strength in high-load areas like circuit breakers and busbars and significantly reducing the risk of partial discharge. In low-temperature areas, the airbag contracts to release gas, optimizing airflow distribution, reducing sealing stress, and ensuring stable insulation performance across the system.
[0022] 2. The thermal linkage heat exchange mechanism in this invention utilizes a honeycomb heat dissipation network and bimetallic fins to guide SF6 airflow to high-load areas, enhancing convective heat transfer and significantly reducing the main air / temperature temperature difference. The movable assembly and connecting rod convert the airbag expansion force into fin swing, dynamically adjusting the airflow direction and optimizing heat dissipation in high-temperature areas. The self-cleaning heat exchanger's heat exchange channels efficiently transfer heat to the outer wall, preventing overheating of electrical components and extending the equipment's service life.
[0023] 3. This invention directs SF6 gas from the airbag directly into the upper side of the main air chamber via a manifold and guide tube, creating a closed loop and minimizing gas loss. The main valve assembly, combined with a knob and push rod, manually activates the hollow float during maintenance, opening a check valve and temporarily storing the SF6 gas from the main chamber within the airbag. This eliminates the need for external equipment and reduces emission risks. A second check valve ensures that only a trace amount of hot air is emitted from the exhaust port, leveraging the high density of SF6 gas to prioritize gas circulation and meet environmental standards.
[0024] 4. The self-cleaning heat exchange assembly automatically removes SF6 decomposition byproducts through a vibrating screen and hydrophobic coating on the heat exchange channel, preventing channel blockage and maintaining efficient heat exchange. The collection trough and removable collection box facilitate regular cleaning of byproducts. Combined with the cabinet access, this simplifies maintenance operations, significantly reduces maintenance frequency, and ensures long-term operational reliability.
[0025] 5. This device utilizes a purely mechanical design, using SF6 corrosion-resistant materials, eliminating the need for electronic components. It is resistant to high temperatures, high humidity, and strong electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for extreme environments such as deserts and high altitudes. The expansion spring optimizes float sensitivity at high temperatures, enhancing the system's rapid response to pressure and temperature, ensuring operational stability and reliability.

Those skilled in the art may make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0039] Secondly, the term "one embodiment" or "embodiment" herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in various places throughout this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor does it refer to a separate or selective embodiment that is mutually exclusive of other embodiments.
[0040] Example
[0041] Reference Figures 1 to 9 This embodiment provides a fully insulated high-voltage gas-filled cabinet suitable for 12kV high-voltage power systems. It realizes the adaptive partition insulation, heat balance, gas circulation and self-cleaning functions of SF6 gas through a purely mechanical structure, and is particularly suitable for high loads and extreme environments (such as deserts and high altitudes).
[0042] Specifically, the gas filling cabinet includes a cabinet body 100, and a gas filling box 101 is fixedly installed at the center of the interior of the cabinet body 100, and a main gas chamber 102 is opened inside the gas filling box 101. The cabinet body 100 is made of stainless steel, and is easy to maintain through the front inspection door and the top terminal. It provides high-strength and corrosion-resistant external protection to ensure long-term operational stability. The gas filling box 101 adopts a stainless steel shell and is fixed by an internal frame. The main gas chamber 102 inside is filled with SF6 gas (pressure 1.0-1.5 bar, molecular weight 146g / mol), providing a high dielectric strength insulation environment for electrical components such as circuit breakers, busbars and switches. The main gas chamber 102 uses a silicone sealing gasket to ensure that there is no leakage of SF6 gas, supports dynamic gas distribution, optimizes local insulation performance, reduces the risk of local discharge, and maintains pressure balance to extend the life of the equipment.
[0043] The partitioned airbag array mechanism 200 includes a plurality of flexible airbags 201 arrayed on the lower side of the main air chamber 102. The plurality of flexible airbags 201 are fixed to the inner wall of the inflatable box 101 through flexible brackets 202. The bottom ends of the plurality of flexible airbags 201 extend to the inner bottom wall of the inflatable box 101 and are connected to a first one-way valve assembly 204 through a micro elastic tube 203. The bottom ends of the plurality of first one-way valve assemblies 204 are connected to a manifold 205. The rear end of the manifold 205 is connected to a guide tube 206. The output end of the guide tube 206 extends to the inner top wall of the inflatable box 101 and passes through the upper side of the main air chamber 102. A pressure response distribution assembly 207 is provided on one side of the plurality of flexible brackets 202. The flexible airbag 201 is made of silicone rubber reinforced with aramid fiber, resistant to SF6 corrosion. It adjusts its volume through thermal response. At high temperatures (>40°C), it expands to absorb SF6 gas, increasing local pressure to 1.5 bar, enhancing insulation strength in high-load areas (such as circuit breakers or busbars). At low temperatures (<20°C), it contracts and releases gas, optimizing airflow distribution and reducing sealing stress in low-load areas. The flexible bracket 202 is made of silicone and bolted to the inner wall of the inflatable box, appropriately distanced from electrical components to ensure airbag stability and avoid disrupting the electric field distribution. The micro-elastic tube 203 is made of silicone, resistant to SF6 corrosion, and remains flexible to accommodate changes in the airbag's volume. It connects the airbag to the manifold, supporting unidirectional gas flow. The manifold 205 is made of stainless steel and aggregates gas flows from each airbag duct and delivers them to the guide tube 206, ensuring smooth system airflow. The guide tube 206, made of stainless steel and routed along the inner wall, directs SF6 gas from the manifold directly to the upper side of the main air chamber 102, promoting gas circulation and maintaining pressure balance within the main chamber. The pressure response distribution component 207 controls the opening of the first one-way valve component 204 by sensing the pressure change of the main gas chamber, adjusts the gas flow between the air bag and the manifold, supports temporary storage of gas during maintenance, and reduces SF6 emissions.
[0044] The first one-way valve assembly 204 includes a connecting channel 204a, located directly below the micro-elastic tube 203. This connecting channel 204a has a narrow top and wide bottom structure. Its top end is connected to the output end of the micro-elastic tube 203, and its bottom end is connected to the manifold 205. A first telescopic spring 204b is fixedly attached to the inner top wall of the connecting channel 204a. A sealing plate 204c is fixedly attached to the bottom end of the first telescopic spring 204b, and the sealing plate 204c is movably engaged at the junction of the narrow and wide channels of the connecting channel 204a. The connecting channel 204a is made of stainless steel and is airtightly connected to the pipe and manifold via a silicone gasket. Its narrow top and wide bottom structure optimizes airflow control, reduces pressure loss, and improves unidirectional flow efficiency. The first telescopic spring 204b is made of stainless steel and provides a constant tension (0.1-0.2 bar), ensuring that the sealing plate 204c normally seals the junction, preventing gas backflow. Sealing disc 204c is made of stainless steel and precisely snaps into place. When pipeline pressure exceeds 0.1 bar, it opens under pressure, allowing SF6 gas to flow from micro-elastic tube 203 into manifold 205 in one direction. Under reverse pressure, a spring returns, driving the sealing disc to close the channel and maintain pressure balance between the airbag and the main chamber. The first one-way valve assembly 204, with its low-pressure differential and high-sensitivity design, ensures precise control of airbag intake and exhaust, enhances local insulation, and reduces the risk of overvoltage or undervoltage.
[0045] The pressure-responsive distribution assembly 207 comprises a fixed cylinder 207a, fixedly mounted on the top wall of the plenum chamber 101. A telescopic chamber 207b is defined within the lower portion of the fixed cylinder 207a, with openings 207c symmetrically located on either side. An expansion spring 207d is fixedly attached to the top wall of the telescopic chamber 207b. A hollow float 207e is fixedly attached to the bottom end of the expansion spring 207d, which in turn is fixedly attached to the bottom end of the hollow float 207e. A U-shaped connecting rod 207f is fixedly attached to the bottom end of the hollow float 207e. The other end of the U-shaped connecting rod 207f passes through the manifold 205 and extends into the connecting channel 204a, where it is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the sealing plate 204c. The fixed cylinder 207a is made of stainless steel and bolted to the top of the plenum chamber. It houses the float and spring, protecting the internal components from corrosion caused by SF6 gas. The telescopic chamber 207b is connected to the main gas chamber through opening 207c, allowing SF6 gas to flow into the actuating float, ensuring real-time pressure sensing. The expansion spring 207d is made of nickel-titanium alloy (shape memory alloy), which stretches at high temperature (>40℃), reduces the friction of the float guide, improves the sensitivity to small pressure changes (0.05 bar), and optimizes the gas distribution in the high temperature area. The hollow float 207e is made of aluminum alloy, which is buoyant (SF6 density 6-9kg / m 3) senses pressure changes in the main gas chamber (1.0-1.5 bar), floating up and down, driving U-shaped connecting rod 207f. Made of stainless steel, U-shaped connecting rod 207f extends through the manifold's sealing interface (silicone sealing ring) to connecting channel 204a. Pulling sealing plate 204c, it controls the opening of first one-way valve assembly 204, regulating the flow of SF6 gas from micro-elastic tube 203 into manifold 205. The pressure-responsive distribution assembly 207 dynamically controls the opening of the one-way valve through buoyancy and springs, prioritizing gas delivery to the high-temperature airbag, enhancing insulation performance, and supporting manual maintenance operations.
[0046] A main valve assembly 208 is mounted at the top of the multiple pressure-responsive distribution assemblies 207. This assembly comprises a cavity 208a defined within the top wall of the plenum chamber 101. The tops of multiple fixed cylinders 207a are connected to this cavity 208a. A pressure plate 208b is slidably connected to the center of this cavity 208a. A bolt 208c is located in the center of this pressure plate 208b. The bolts 208c extend through the top walls of the plenum chamber 101 and the cabinet 100, extending to the exterior where they are fixedly connected to a knob 208d. Push rods 208e are mounted in an array at the bottom of the pressure plate 208b. The bottoms of these push rods 208e extend into the interiors of the fixed cylinders 207a and connect to multiple hollow floats 207e. Cavity 208a is constructed of stainless steel and connected to the fixed cylinders via a silicone gasket to ensure SF6 gas tightness. The pressure plate 208b is made of stainless steel and slides in the cavity, evenly distributing the push of the knob. The bolt 208c is made of stainless steel and is driven by the knob 208d (made of aluminum alloy). The knob is located at the top inspection port of the cabinet for easy manual operation. The push rod 208e is connected to the hollow float 207e through a sliding seal (silicone sealing ring) to synchronously transmit downward force. The main valve assembly 208 drives the bolt and the pressure plate downward by rotating the knob 208d. The push rod 208e simultaneously pushes the multiple hollow floats 207e downward, pulling the U-shaped connecting rod 207f, opening all the first one-way valve assemblies 204, and guiding the SF6 gas in the main air chamber into the air bag for temporary storage, achieving leak-free maintenance and reducing SF6 emissions and maintenance costs.
[0047] The thermally linked heat exchange mechanism 300 includes fixed brackets 301 mounted on the left and right sides of the main air chamber 102. A honeycomb heat sink 302 is installed inside the brackets 301, close to the inner wall of the plenum 101. Movable components 303 are symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the brackets 301. Multiple bimetallic heat sinks 304 are located between the two sets of movable components 303. Self-cleaning heat exchange components 305 are installed on opposite sides of both brackets 301. The brackets 301 are made of stainless steel and welded to the inner wall of the plenum. They cover the left and right sides of the main air chamber, support the heat sink and movable components, and ensure structural stability. The honeycomb heat sink 302 is made of a copper-aluminum alloy (thermal conductivity >200W / m·K). Its honeycomb pore structure provides a large heat exchange surface, guiding the flow of SF6 gas and transferring heat from high-load areas such as circuit breakers or busbars to the self-cleaning heat exchange components, thereby reducing the main air temperature difference (<10°C). The movable component 303 uses the sliding motion of the slide to drive the heat sink, dynamically adjusting the airflow direction and enhancing convective heat transfer in high-temperature areas. The bimetallic heat sink 304, made of a copper-steel composite material, bends at high temperatures (>50°C) to guide the SF6 airflow to high-load areas, evenly distributing heat, preventing overheating of electrical components and extending equipment life. The thermally linked heat exchange mechanism 300 optimizes heat distribution in the main air chamber through the synergistic effect of the heat dissipation network and heat sink, ensuring long-term operational stability.
[0048] The two sets of movable components 303 respectively include fixed frames 303a fixedly connected to the front and rear walls of the fixed frame 301. Slideways 303b are slidably connected to the interior of each fixed frame 303a. Multiple hinges 303c are equidistantly arranged on the opposing surfaces of the two slideways 303b from top to bottom. Multiple bimetallic heat sinks 304 are hinged between each pair of hinges 303c. The fixed frames 303a are fixed to the inner wall of the fixed frame, supporting the movement of the slideways and ensuring structural rigidity. The slideways 303b slide via a low-friction coating (polytetrafluoroethylene) in response to the movement of the airbags, transmitting mechanical force. The hinges 303c are evenly spaced, securing the heat sinks and allowing them to swing flexibly. The movable components 303 are linked to the airbag connecting rod via the slides, converting the mechanical force of the airbag expansion into heat sink swinging, dynamically adjusting the airflow direction, enhancing heat exchange efficiency in high-temperature areas, and collaborating with the airbags to achieve dual optimization of temperature and insulation.
[0049] The outer surfaces of the multiple flexible airbags 201 are each covered with a thermosensitive elastic membrane 201a. A connecting rod 201b is hinged to the outer surface of the flexible airbag 201 near the mounting bracket 301, with the other end of the connecting rod 201b hinged to the bottom end of the slide 303b. The thermosensitive elastic membrane 201a, made of a silicone-based elastomer (embedded with shape memory fibers), expands at high temperatures (>40°C), driving the airbag to draw in SF6 gas, enhancing local insulation. At low temperatures (<20°C), it contracts, releasing the gas, promoting airflow and optimizing the pressure distribution in the main air chamber. The connecting rod 201b, made of aluminum alloy, connects the airbag to the slide via a hinge, transmitting the expansion force of the thermosensitive membrane to the slide 303b, driving the heat sink 304 to oscillate and enhance airflow guidance in high-temperature areas. By coupling the airbags with the heat dissipation mechanism, the thermosensitive elastic membrane 201a and connecting rod 201b achieve coordinated control of temperature response and heat exchange, improving the system's adaptability to high-load environments.
[0050] The self-cleaning heat exchange assembly 305 includes a connection frame 305a embedded in the outer wall of the left and right sides of the plenum 101. A circulation chamber 305b is provided on the outside of the connection frame 305a. The input end of the circulation chamber 305b is connected to multiple heat exchange channels 305c, and the inlet ends of the multiple heat exchange channels 305c are connected to the honeycomb holes of the heat dissipation network. The connection between the circulation chamber 305b and the multiple heat exchange channels 305c is provided with a vibrating screen 305d, and the bottom end of the circulation chamber 305b is provided with a collection tank 305e. The connection frame 305a is made of stainless steel and embedded in the outer wall of the plenum, supporting the heat exchange channel and the circulation chamber to ensure the airtightness of the structure. The circulation chamber 305b transfers the heat from the heat dissipation network 302 to the outer wall through the heat exchange channel 305c (made of aluminum alloy, with a fluoropolymer hydrophobic coating on the inner wall), reducing the temperature of the main air chamber. The vibrating screen 305d is driven by airflow to vibrate, removing SF6 decomposition byproducts (such as SOF2), preventing channel blockage, and maintaining efficient heat exchange. The collection tank 305e collects byproducts, facilitating regular cleaning and reducing maintenance frequency. The self-cleaning heat exchange component 305 ensures long-term heat dissipation efficiency and extends the life of the equipment through the synergistic effect of the hydrophobic coating and the vibrating screen.
[0051] The collection box 305f is slidably connected to the interior of the collection tank 305e, and a handle 305g is fixed to the outer wall of the collection box 305f. The collection box 305f is made of stainless steel and slides easily from the inspection port at the bottom of the cabinet to collect byproducts and simplify cleaning. The handle 305g is easy to operate and, combined with the inspection port design (equipped with a silicone gasket), ensures that no SF6 leaks during the cleaning process. The detachable design of the collection tank 305e and collection box 305f supports low-maintenance operation and reduces the impact of byproducts on system performance.
[0052] An exhaust port 103 is provided on the upper side of the cabinet 100. The output end of the exhaust port 103 is connected to the outside world, and the input end is connected to the circulation chamber 305b. A second one-way valve assembly 104 is provided inside the exhaust port 103. The exhaust port 103 (equipped with a weatherproof cover) is located at the top of the cabinet and exhausts a trace amount of hot air (<0.01% / hour), maintaining the temperature of the main gas chamber stable while preventing external air from entering and protecting the SF6 gas environment. The second one-way valve assembly 104 includes a sealing plate 104a that is sealed at the intersection of the wide and narrow channels inside the exhaust port 103. A second telescopic spring 104b is fixedly connected to the inner side of the sealing plate 104a, and the other end of the second telescopic spring 104b is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connection frame 305a. Sealing plate 104a, made of stainless steel, is normally closed under the tension of a second telescopic spring 104b (stainless steel, tension 0.05-0.1 bar), preventing SF6 gas leakage. When the hot air pressure in the circulation chamber exceeds 0.05 bar, the sealing plate opens, exhausting the hot air. SF6 gas, due to its high molecular weight (146 g / mol), is deposited at the bottom of the circulation chamber and preferentially circulates back to the main gas chamber. The second check valve assembly 104 achieves precise pressure control, balancing heat dissipation and gas retention, optimizing system efficiency.
[0053] It should be noted that the molecular weight of SF6 gas (146 g / mol) is much greater than that of air (29 g / mol), and it tends to settle within the circulation chamber 305b rather than exit through the exhaust port 103 above. The second one-way valve ensures that only a small amount of hot air is discharged, while the SF6 gas circulates within the channel due to pressure and density differences. This design effectively reduces SF6 emissions, meeting environmental requirements. At the same time, the synergistic effect of the circulation chamber and heat exchange channel maintains thermal equilibrium within the main gas chamber.
