AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The solid desiccant in existing cable branch boxes tends to harden on the surface after absorbing moisture, forming an insulating layer. This prevents the desiccant inside from coming into contact with the air, thus losing its moisture-proof effect. Furthermore, the lack of a scraping mechanism makes it easy for electrical components to become damp and oxidize, affecting the stability and lifespan of the equipment.

Method used

A cable branch box with fault alarm function was designed, equipped with a combination alarm, ventilation filter plate, drive mechanism and scraping mechanism. The motor drives the scraper to remove the hardened layer on the surface of the desiccant, ensuring that the desiccant continues to absorb moisture. Combined with a detachable desiccant box and support legs, it reduces ground moisture erosion.

Benefits of technology

It achieves continuous moisture protection for cable branch boxes, prevents electrical components from oxidizing due to moisture, improves equipment stability and service life, and simplifies the desiccant replacement process.

[0002] With the continuous advancement of the cableization process of the power distribution network, the cable branch box, as a key device in power transmission, is widely used in independent load scenarios with small capacity and concentrated distribution, mainly undertaking the core functions of cable tapping and switching. To cope with the influence of humid environment on equipment operation, some cable branch boxes are equipped with a fault alarm function, which can issue a warning when the humidity in the box exceeds the standard.

[0003] However, the existing technology still has obvious deficiencies. The solid desiccant used for moisture-proofing is prone to hardening on the surface after absorbing moisture, forming an insulating layer, which prevents the internal non-failed desiccant from contacting the air, thereby losing the moisture-proofing effect. Moreover, the existing cable branch box lacks a corresponding scraping mechanism to remove the hardened insulating layer on the surface of the desiccant, which greatly reduces the moisture-proofing effect and may cause the electrical components in the box to be damp and oxidized, affecting the stability and service life of the equipment.
