Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of auxiliary tooling equipment for power grid installation, and specifically relates to a grounding ring installation device. Background Technology

[0002] As a critical safety component in power systems, grounding rings function to conduct equipment fault currents or lightning currents into the earth through grounding electrodes, preventing equipment damage or electric shock accidents. In power system maintenance and repair, the installation quality of grounding rings directly affects the reliability of the grounding system. Currently, most existing grounding rings are installed manually using traditional tools such as wrenches and screwdrivers. This process often requires multiple people, is labor-intensive, cumbersome, time-consuming, and increases the risk of falls and electric shock. Therefore, to solve these problems, it is essential to develop a safe, convenient, time-saving, and efficient grounding ring installation device. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a grounding ring installation device that is safe, convenient, time-saving and efficient to use.

[0004] The objective of this invention is achieved as follows: A grounding ring installation device includes an insulating grip rod and a fixed back plate. The insulating grip rod is vertically oriented, with a connector fixedly connected to its lower end and a placement base fixedly connected to its upper end via a middle block. The placement base has a square structure, with a placement groove in the center of its front face and a slot laterally formed in the center of its rear end. A cover plate is detachably installed at the opening of the placement groove, and a lithium battery is placed inside. Limiting plates are provided at both ends inside the slot, and an electric push rod a is horizontally fixed between the outer side of the limiting plates and the inner wall of the slot. The fixed back plate is vertically oriented and fixedly mounted on the placement base. The rear end of the fixed back plate is connected to an adjustment plate via a longitudinal electric push rod b. The adjustment plate is horizontally arranged, and intermediate connecting plates are longitudinally fixed on both sides of its front end face. A pressure plate is horizontally fixed between the two intermediate connecting plates. The pressure plate is flat with the fixed back plate and is located at the front end of the fixed back plate. A limiting groove that matches the fastening plate structure in the grounding ring is opened in the middle of the upper part of the inner surface of the pressure plate. An electromagnet is fixed in the middle of the bottom surface of the limiting groove. Fastening through holes are longitudinally opened on both sides of the bottom surface of the groove. The electromagnet, electric push rod a, and electric push rod b are all electrically connected to the lithium battery via wires.

[0005] Furthermore, the connector is a threaded sleeve, and an extension rod can be externally connected to it by means of threaded rotation.

[0006] Furthermore, the limiting plate is vertically oriented and slidably connected to the inner wall of the slot.

[0007] Furthermore, an insulating and anti-slip layer is fixedly provided on the inner surface of the limiting plate.

[0008] Furthermore, lighting components are fixedly installed in the middle of both sides of the placement base.

[0009] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention sets up a slot, an electric push rod a and a limiting plate. By utilizing the telescopic property of the electric push rod a, the limiting plate can be moved horizontally. Thus, through the cooperation of the two limiting plates, the lower end of the grounding ring placed in the slot is limited, thereby completing the limiting installation of the grounding ring in the present invention. By setting a limiting groove and an electromagnet, the magnetic attraction force generated by the electromagnet after it is energized can be used to limit the placement of the fastening plate in the limiting groove in the grounding ring. By configuring an electric push rod b, an adjusting plate, an intermediate connecting plate, and a fixed back plate, the electric push rod b's telescopic nature allows the adjusting plate, intermediate connecting plate, and pressure plate to move longitudinally during use. This longitudinal movement of the pressure plate, in turn, causes the grounding ring fastening plate, which is positioned within the limiting groove, to move longitudinally, achieving a tight connection between the fastening plate and the grounding ring. This structure avoids direct contact between the operator and the grounding ring during installation, reducing the risk of electric shock and increasing operational safety. The fastening through-hole facilitates subsequent bolt tightening using a screwdriver. Overall, this invention offers the advantages of safe and convenient use, as well as time-saving and efficient operation. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0016] Example: Figure 1, Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a grounding ring installation device includes an insulating handle 1 and a fixed back plate 2. The insulating handle 1 is vertically arranged, with a connector 3 fixedly connected to its lower end and a placement base 4 fixedly connected to its upper end via a middle block. The placement base 4 has a square structure, with a placement groove in the middle of its front face and a slot 41 horizontally arranged in the middle of its rear end. A cover plate 42 is detachably installed at the opening of the placement groove, and a lithium battery is placed inside. Limiting plates 43 are provided at both ends inside the slot 41, and an electric push rod a44 is horizontally fixed between the outer side of the limiting plate 43 and the inner wall of the slot 41. The fixed back plate 2 is vertically arranged and fixedly installed at the rear end of the placement base 4. An adjustment plate 22 is connected to the middle of the rear end face via a longitudinal electric push rod b21. The adjustment plate 22 is arranged laterally, and intermediate connecting plates 23 are longitudinally fixed on both sides of its front end face. A pressure plate 24 is laterally fixed between the two intermediate connecting plates 23. The pressure plate 24 is flat with the fixed back plate 2 and is located at the front end of the fixed back plate 2. A limiting groove 25 that cooperates with the fastening plate structure in the grounding ring is opened in the middle of the upper part of the inner surface of the pressure plate 24. An electromagnet 26 is fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom surface of the limiting groove 25. Fastening through holes 27 are longitudinally opened on both sides of the bottom surface of the groove. The electromagnet 26, electric push rod a44 and electric push rod b21 are all electrically connected to the lithium battery through wires.

[0017] The connector 3 is a threaded connecting sleeve, and an extension rod can be externally connected to it by means of threaded rotation; the limiting plate 43 is vertically arranged and is laterally slidably connected to the inner wall of the slot 41; an insulating and anti-slip layer is fixedly provided on the inner surface of the limiting plate 43, which can not only provide insulation but also increase the limiting effect of the two limiting plates 43 on the grounding ring; lighting components 5 are fixedly provided in the middle of both sides of the placement base 4, which can facilitate the use of this invention in environments with insufficient light.

[0018] In use, the invention begins by placing the lower end of the grounding ring body into the slot 41. Then, power is applied and the electric push rod a44 is unfolded. The thrust generated by the unfolding electric push rod a44 drives the limiting plate 43 to move horizontally. The two limiting plates 43, in conjunction, limit the lower end of the grounding ring placed in the slot 41, thus completing the limiting installation of the grounding ring in this invention. Next, the grounding ring fastening plate is placed into the limiting groove 25, and the electromagnet 26 is powered on. The magnetic attraction generated by the energized electromagnet 26 on the fastening plate allows for the limiting placement of the fastening plate within the limiting groove 25. Then, the insulated grip rod 1 is used to move the entire invention, including the grounding ring body and fastening plate, so that the upper end of the grounding ring body fits onto the outside of the live cable. Finally, power is applied and the electric push rod b21 is unfolded. The unfolding of the electric push rod b21 allows for... The adjusting plate 22, intermediate connecting plate 23, and pressure plate 24 are moved longitudinally. This longitudinal movement of pressure plate 24 causes the grounding ring fastening plate, which is positioned inside the limiting groove 25, to move longitudinally as well. This achieves a tight press-fit between the fastening plate and the grounding ring body on both sides of the live cable. After this operation, the bolts are tightened by passing a screwdriver through the fastening through hole 27, thus completing the installation of the grounding ring on the outside of the live cable. This structure avoids direct contact between the operator and the grounding ring during installation, reducing the risk of electric shock and increasing operational safety. Furthermore, after the grounding ring is installed, cutting off the energizing circuit of the electromagnet 26 releases the limiting connection between the limiting groove 25 and the fastening plate. Controlling the retraction and reset of electric push rods a44 and b21 releases the limiting connection between the invention and the grounding ring body. In summary, this invention is safe, convenient, time-saving, and efficient.
