Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of transformer technology, and in particular to an oil-immersed transformer that enhances winding heat dissipation. Background Technology
[0002] Oil-immersed transformers use oil as the primary insulation and cooling medium. They are a new type of high-performance transformer with a more rational structure and superior performance. Their three-dimensional wound core, with its three core columns arranged in an equilateral triangle, eliminates air gaps in the magnetic circuit, resulting in tighter winding, uniform and shortest lengths for the three magnetic circuits, and a cross-sectional area closer to a circle. This further improves performance, reduces losses and noise, achieves three-phase balance, and reduces third harmonic components. This product is more suitable for power grid upgrades in urban and rural areas, industrial and mining enterprises, and is also suitable for combined transformers and prefabricated substation transformers.
[0003] For example, an oil-immersed transformer with announcement number CN220731301U includes a transformer body; an oil tank for storing oil; an oil conservator installed on the side wall of the oil tank, and along the height direction of the oil-immersed transformer, the oil tank has a top wall and a bottom wall arranged opposite each other, the distance between the oil conservator and the top wall being smaller than the distance between the oil conservator and the bottom wall; and a connecting pipe connecting the oil tank and the oil conservator. Therefore, the oil-immersed transformer according to the above-mentioned prior art effectively avoids the oil conservator occupying the space above the oil tank, which is beneficial to reducing the height of the oil-immersed transformer and also to reducing the length of the connecting pipe, thus achieving the effect of reducing the cost of the oil-immersed transformer.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned existing technologies still have some defects in terms of transformer heat dissipation: 1. In the above-mentioned existing technologies, the transformer body is installed in the first receiving cavity, and the first receiving cavity stores oil for insulating the transformer body from the oil tank and for cooling the transformer body. However, while the oil cools the transformer body, uneven oil temperature in the cavity is likely to occur, affecting its heat dissipation effect.
[0005] 2. In the prior art, when the pressure in the first receiving cavity changes, the oil in the second receiving cavity flows to the second interface through the conduit under the action of the pressure difference, and then enters the first receiving cavity to achieve the effect of replenishing the oil, thereby maintaining the pressure in the first receiving cavity. If the transformer body generates high heat due to a fault and causes a fire, the fire is easy to spread along the oil, and there is no function to deal with dangers in extreme situations.
[0006] Based on this, and given the above viewpoints, there is still room for improvement in existing technologies for transformer heat dissipation. Summary of the Invention

[0029] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1 to 8 This application will be described in further detail.
[0030] This application discloses an oil-immersed transformer that enhances winding heat dissipation. It can enhance the convection of insulating oil inside the transformer to improve the heat dissipation effect. In the event of an abnormal internal temperature and fire, it can isolate the entry of outside air to extinguish the fire.
[0031] Example 1: refer to Figure 1 An oil-immersed transformer for enhancing winding heat dissipation includes a triangular housing 11, an oil pipe 12 is provided at the upper end of the triangular housing 11 and the oil pipe 12 connects to the interior of the triangular housing 11, and a high-voltage bushing 13 and a low-voltage bushing 14 are respectively provided on both sides of the top of the triangular housing 11.
[0032] In actual use, the oil supply pipe 12 is connected to the external oil conservator to adjust the volume change of the insulating oil inside the triangular housing 11, isolate air and moisture, and ensure the performance of the insulating oil. The lower end of the high voltage bushing 13 is connected to the high voltage winding lead inside the triangular housing 11, and the lower end of the low voltage bushing 14 is connected to the low voltage lead bushing inside the triangular housing 11.
[0033] refer to Figure 2 A lifting block 21 is provided at the bottom of the triangular shell 11. A triangular isolation frame 22 is installed on the upper end of the lifting block 21, leaving a gap at one end between the triangular isolation frame 22 and the bottom of the triangular shell 11 to facilitate the convection of insulating oil. The triangular isolation frame 22 and the triangular shell 11 are concentrically arranged. An iron core 23 is provided inside the triangular isolation frame 22, and the iron cores 23 are arranged in a triangular pattern. An insulating cylinder 24 is sleeved on the core column of the iron core 23 at the same end. A winding structure 25 is sleeved on the insulating cylinder 24. The windings are arranged concentrically, with the low-voltage winding and the high-voltage winding arranged from the inside to the outside.
[0034] When this transformer is working, the heat generated by the winding structure 25 on the insulating cylinder 24 heats the insulating oil inside the triangular isolation frame 22. Under the convection of the insulating oil, the heated insulating oil flows upward and flows to the outside of the triangular isolation frame 22 after cooling. The cold insulating oil on the outside of the triangular isolation frame 22 replenishes the inside of the triangular isolation frame 22, forming a circulation. This allows the insulating oil to flow along a directional path, enhancing the heat dissipation effect on the winding structure 25.
[0035] refer to Figure 3 The diagram shows the structure of the fixing component 3 of the present invention. In order to fix the iron core 23 to the inside of the triangular isolation frame 22, the upper end of the lifting block 21 is provided with the fixing component 3. The fixing component 3 includes a lower fixing frame 31 provided at the upper end of the lifting block 21 and an upper fixing frame 32 provided at the upper yoke side end of the iron core 23. Fixing clamps 33 are slidably provided at the side ends of the lower fixing frame 31 and the upper fixing frame 32. The lower yoke of the iron core 23 is clamped and fixed by the lower fixing frame 31 and the fixing clamps 33, and the upper yoke of the iron core 23 is clamped and fixed by the upper fixing frame 32 and the fixing clamps 33. Several clamping bolts 34 are connected between the lower fixing frame 31 and the fixing clamps 33 and between the upper fixing frame 32 and the fixing clamps 33. After the silicon steel sheets are stacked to form the iron core 23, the fixing clamps 33 clamp the upper yoke and the lower yoke of the iron core 23 respectively by the clamping bolts 34, so that the iron core 23 is fixed inside the triangular isolation frame 22.
[0036] refer to Figure 4The diagram shows the structure of the connecting component 4 of the present invention. In order to connect the upper yokes of adjacent iron cores 23 and form an integral spatial structure to enhance its stability, a connecting component 4 is provided between the upper fixed frames 32. The connecting component 4 includes a first connecting plate 41 provided at one end of the upper fixed frame 32 and a second connecting plate 42 provided at the other end of the upper fixed frame 32. Sliding holes 43 are respectively opened between the first connecting plate 41 and the second connecting plate 42. A fixing pin 44 is slidably provided in the sliding hole 43, and a fixing bolt 45 is provided at the upper end of the fixing pin 44.
[0037] When connecting the upper yoke of adjacent iron cores 23, the fixing bolts 45 are passed through the sliding holes 43 of the first connecting plate 41 and the second connecting plate 23, and the fixing pins 44 are slid according to the position of the iron cores 23. Then the fixing bolts 45 are tightened to fix them. At this time, the iron cores 23 together form a rigid space truss structure. This structure has high mechanical stability and will not tilt due to vibration.
[0038] refer to Figure 5 To bring out the neutral wire from the winding for connection to the power grid, a connecting cylinder 51 is provided in the middle of the lifting block 21, and the upper and lower ends of the connecting cylinder 51 penetrate the triangular shell 11. An insulating connecting pipe 52 is provided at the upper end of the insulating cylinder 24, and the insulating connecting pipe 52 connects to the inside of the connecting cylinder 51. A connecting main pipe 53 is vertically provided inside the connecting cylinder 51. The insulating connecting pipe 52 is connected to the inside of the connecting main pipe 53 to avoid the heat inside the triangular shell 11 affecting the performance of the neutral wire in the insulating connecting pipe 52. The neutral wire in the insulating cylinder 24 is led out through the insulating connecting pipe 52 and the connecting main pipe 53, which facilitates the grounding of the neutral wire and its connection to the power grid. A temperature sensor 54 is connected in series on the connecting main pipe 53. The temperature sensor 54 detects the temperature at the neutral point. Since the center point should not be significantly heated under normal circumstances, an alarm is issued when the temperature sensor 54 detects that the neutral point is overheated. A neutral wire sleeve 55 is provided at the upper end of the connecting main pipe 53.
[0039] refer to Figure 6 In order to ensure that the insulating oil inside the triangular shell 11 can dissipate heat fully, each side wall of the triangular shell 11 is provided with a mounting frame 81, and a heat dissipation plate 82 is provided on the mounting frame 81 to increase the heat dissipation area. The heat dissipation plates 82 on the same side are fixedly connected by a connecting rod 83 to enhance the stability between the heat dissipation plates 82.
[0040] Example 2: refer to Figure 7Based on Embodiment 1, when the winding structure 25 catches fire due to abnormal heating, an isolation device 6 is provided on the connecting cylinder 51 to isolate the air and achieve the effect of extinguishing the fire. The isolation device 6 includes a mounting plate 61 located at the upper end of the triangular isolation frame 22. A sliding post 62 is provided at the upper end of the mounting plate 61, and an isolation cover 63 is slidably mounted on the sliding post 62. The isolation cover 63 slides downward to block the opening at the upper end of the triangular isolation frame 22. The connection between the sliding post 62 and the isolation cover 63 is achieved by a hot melt ring 64. When the temperature is too high, the hot melt ring 64 loses its ability to control the sliding post. The connection between the column 62 and the isolation cover 63 is as follows: the isolation cover 63 is provided with several pressure relief holes 65 to prevent the internal insulating oil of the triangular isolation frame 22 from expanding and exploding due to excessive internal temperature. The isolation device 6 also includes a connecting column 66 arranged circumferentially around the isolation cover 63. The lower end of the connecting column 66 is provided with an isolation cover 67. The isolation cover 67 slides downward to block the gap between the triangular isolation frame 22 and the bottom of the triangular shell 11. The lower end of the isolation cover 67 is provided with a relief groove 68 corresponding to the lifting block 21, so that the isolation cover 67 can slide to the bottom of the triangular shell 11.
[0041] When the winding structure 25 overheats abnormally and ignites the insulating oil inside the triangular isolation frame 22, the hot melt ring 64 melts under the high temperature and loses its fixing function to the sliding post 62 and the isolation cover 63. The isolation cover 63 slides down under the action of gravity to cover the upper end of the triangular isolation frame 22. At the same time as the isolation cover 63 slides down, the connecting post 66 and the isolation cover 67 slide down simultaneously. The isolation cover 67 blocks the gap between the triangular isolation frame 22 and the bottom of the triangular shell 11, so that a sealed space is formed inside the triangular isolation frame 22, preventing the entry of air to achieve the purpose of preventing fire and extinguishing fire.
[0042] refer to Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the locking component 7 of the present invention. In order to prevent the insulating oil from being pushed open again due to excessive internal temperature of the triangular isolation frame 22 after the isolation cover 63 and the isolation cover 67 block the upper and lower ends of the triangular isolation frame 22, the isolation device 6 also includes a locking component 7 provided on the connecting column 66 and the side wall of the triangular isolation frame 22. The locking component 7 includes a limiting block 71 circumferentially provided on the side wall of the triangular isolation frame 22. A sliding groove 72 is provided on the side end of the connecting column 66. A sliding wedge 73 is slidably provided in the sliding groove 72. The sliding wedge 73 is connected to the bottom of the sliding groove 72 by a return spring 74.
[0043] When the isolation cover 63 moves downward, the sliding wedge 73 on the connecting post 66 passes the limiting block 71 and is located at the lower end of the limiting block 71. At this time, the lower end of the limiting block 71 abuts against the sliding wedge 73, restricting the sliding of the connecting post 66 and thus allowing the isolation cover 63 and the isolation shield 67 to move upward.
[0044] The embodiments described herein are preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
