AI Technical Summary
Existing particulate traps in gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission lines are not securely fixed, have poor installation stability, and are not effective in capturing particles. They also fail to fully utilize the material's elongation, making it difficult to effectively capture particles.
Design a particle capturing ring that is fixed to the outside of three insulator support legs, with the contact surface in close contact with the support legs, and an outwardly convex arc surface designed between each pair of insulators. Utilize the elongation of the material to perform purposeful overall swinging or local deformation to increase the capturing area and capturing efficiency.
The installation stability and capture efficiency of the particulate trap have been improved. Through the convex arc surface design and high elongation material, it can capture particulates more actively and efficiently, thereby improving the reliability and capture effect of the particulate trap.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of power transmission and distribution technology, and in particular to a particulate trap for gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission lines. Background Technology
[0002] Gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission lines are widely used in power systems due to their advantages such as large capacity and high reliability. Internally, gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission lines typically use three-post insulators as the core support and insulation components. However, the metal particles generated during the manufacturing, installation, and operation of gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission lines pose a significant hidden danger to their safe operation. These particles can induce partial discharge under the influence of an electric field, and even lead to insulation breakdown.
[0003] To address this issue, installing particulate traps inside gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission lines is an effective method. Currently, the conventional approach is to use a trap made of metal mesh or perforated sheet, rolled into a cylindrical shape, fitted onto the outside of the three insulator legs of a three-post insulator, and fixed to the cylinder of the gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission line.
[0004] In this conventional design, to ensure sufficient electrical clearance and assembly space between the outer diameter of the trap and the inner wall of the gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission line cylinder, the contact between the trap and the insulator leg is typically a very narrow surface contact. This contact method has the following drawbacks: ① Poor installation stability: The narrow surface contact results in the trap being loosely fixed. Under airflow disturbances or slight vibrations during the operation of the gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission line, the trap is prone to displacement or rotation, affecting its long-term reliability; ② Constraint on trap body deformation: Due to the small contact area, the constraint force of the mounting point on the trap body is also small and concentrated. This makes the movement state of the trap body unstable when using material elongation for dynamic capture (such as overall swaying or local deformation due to airflow impact), making it difficult to form an effective capture posture; ③ Insufficient utilization of elongation: The unstable mounting point prevents the trap body from fully utilizing its material elongation to adapt to and capture particles. The trap body may produce ineffective shaking due to slight loosening of the mounting point, rather than purposeful deformation for particle capture, thus reducing the effect of material elongation on the capture effect.
[0005] Therefore, how to design a particle trap that balances installation stability and efficient particle capture is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This invention provides a particulate trap for gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission lines, solving the technical problems of existing particulate traps being poorly fixed and having poor trapping effects.
[0007] The technical solution of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a particulate trap for a gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission line, wherein there are insulators in the gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission line, and the three supporting legs of the insulators are distributed in a triangular pattern; comprising: a particulate trapping ring with high elongation, the particulate trapping ring being sleeved on the three supporting legs and having a plurality of particulate holes thereon, the side of the particulate trapping ring that contacts the three supporting legs being a contact surface, the contact surface being in close contact with the three supporting legs, and the side of the particulate trapping ring corresponding to each pair of insulators being an outwardly convex arc surface.
[0008] The beneficial effects of this invention are: it improves the structure of the existing particulate trap for gas-insulated metal-enclosed transmission lines. First, the particulate trap ring is fixed to the outside of the three support legs, which can firmly fix the particulate trap ring to the outside of the three support legs of the insulator. Then, the side of the particulate trap ring corresponding to the two pairs of insulators is designed as an outwardly convex arc surface, which can increase the trapping area of the particulate trap. Under the impact of external airflow and particulates, it can effectively utilize the elongation of its material to perform purposeful and controllable overall swing or local elastic deformation, thereby capturing particulates more actively and efficiently and improving the particulate trapping efficiency.
[0009] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.
[0010] Furthermore, the contact surface has the same external structure as the three supporting legs and is either a plane or a curved surface.
[0011] The further beneficial effect of adopting the above is that designing the contact surface of the particle trapping ring into the shape of an insulator can enhance the firmness and stability of the connection between the particle trapping ring and the three support legs.
[0012] Furthermore, the thickness of the particle trapping ring is 2.9–3.1 mm.
[0013] The further beneficial effect of adopting the above is that designing the thickness of the particle trapping ring to be 2.9–3.1 mm can better demonstrate the elongation of the material.
[0014] Furthermore, the particle trapping ring is made of aluminum alloy. Attached Figure Description
