Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a switchboard protection device, and more specifically, to a switchboard protection device with a self-balancing elastomer-based structure that effectively reduces and absorbs energy during vibration or impact (such as an earthquake) to prevent damage to the electrical equipment on the switchboard. Background Technology

[0002] Generally speaking, a switchboard is a receiving device that receives high voltage and extra-high voltage from a substation. It is used to step down the high voltage and extra-high voltage received by the substation and to safely transmit the stepped-down electricity to lighting or electrical equipment in various parts of a building or factory.

[0003] The distribution panel contains various electrical devices such as transformers, switch cabinets, surge arresters, power fuses, converters, circuit breakers, detectors, and computer meters, and is equipped with structures that connect and support them, as well as conductors that connect or link each device.

[0004] These traditional distribution panels are installed on top of a foundation frame fixed to a concrete floor. When an earthquake occurs, the impact is transmitted directly, damaging or short-circuiting the various devices installed inside, causing power outages, and even fires.

[0011] The problem that the invention aims to solve

[0012] The present invention aims to solve the above-mentioned problems and provides a self-balancing distribution panel protection device based on an elastomer. This device can be installed between the lower frame installed at the bottom of the existing cabinet shell and the foundation frame installed on the concrete floor, while absorbing or dissipating the vibration and impact generated by earthquakes between the lower part of the distribution panel and the concrete floor.

[0013] Methods for solving problems

[0014] In the self-balancing distribution panel protection device based on an elastomer according to an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of housing components are provided, which are installed in contact with the lower part of the distribution panel at least three points and are in contact with the inside of the housing. However, a buffer portion is included to buffer the vibration generated by the housing portion by changing the height of the housing portion. The lower surface of the distribution panel forms an imaginary rectangle, and the arrangement of the housing portion is such that the center of gravity of the pattern connecting the housing components corresponds to the center of gravity of the imaginary rectangle formed on the lower surface of the distribution panel. The self-balancing distribution panel protection device based on an elastomer is characterized by further including a self-balancing device to ensure that the imaginary rectangle formed by the lower surface of the distribution panel returns to a state parallel to the ground.

[0015] Next, the housing consists of an upper load that contacts the lower part of the distribution panel and a lower part of the upper load that is set at a predetermined distance. The buffer part includes a balance shaft inserted vertically through the center part of the upper load and an upper through hole formed through the center part of the upper load. One side of the balance shaft passes through the upper part, and the other side of the balance shaft contacts the upper surface of the lower load. The buffer part also includes a central spring mounted on the balance shaft. The upper part of the central spring contacts the lower surface of the upper load, and the lower part of the central spring contacts the upper surface of the lower load. The upper load is characterized by the distance between it and the lower load changing with the vibration along the balance shaft.

[0016] Next, an elastomer-based self-balancing distribution panel protection device is fixed to a buoy section located under the sub-load and on the ground, and receives water at a predetermined level inside. This further includes a water tank housing the buoy, which is positioned on the water surface within the tank. A self-balancing device and a boundary level sensor are installed on one side of the tank to measure whether the water level in the tank reaches the predetermined height. A water level control pipe installed on one side of the tank serves as a channel for supplying water to the tank, receives signals from the boundary level sensor to determine whether the water level in the tank reaches the height where the boundary level sensor is installed, and provides a control device that provides signals to open and close the valves installed in the water level control pipe.

[0017] Next, the water tank consists of four water tanks arranged radially, and the water level control pipe consists of interconnected parts of the water tanks, with each water tank part surrounded by a self-balancing device. The discharge collection tank collects the water received from the water tanks, and the discharge water level sensor measures the water level collected in the discharge collection tank. The control device receives the water level information of the four water tanks measured by the discharge water level sensor, and its feature is to provide signals to open and close the valves provided in the water level control pipe.

[0018] Next, the pool body is divided into a first pool and three second pools. A self-balancing device and a rainwater collection pool are set at the center of the imaginary rectangle connecting the first and second pools. The rainwater supply pipe connected to the first pool serves as a channel to supply rainwater collected in the sedimentation tank to the first pool. The recovery pipe connected from the discharge collection pool to the rainwater pool serves as a channel to recover water collected in the discharge collection pool to the upper sedimentation tank. The first pool and the second pool each have a discharge collection tank. The control device synthesizes the water level height information of the four pools measured by the boundary water level sensor and provides signals to open and close the valves set in the rainwater supply pipe.

[0019] Invention Effects

[0020] The self-balancing switchgear protection device based on an elastomer used in this invention is designed to absorb or dissipate vibrations and impacts generated by earthquakes between the lower part of the switchgear and the concrete floor. However, the self-balancing switchgear protection device based on an elastomer, which can be installed between the lower frame of the existing cabinet shell and the foundation frame installed on the concrete floor, can provide a switchgear panel.

[0069] Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0070] Figure 1 This shows a traditional switchboard protection device.

[0071] Figure 2 This is a conceptual diagram of a distribution panel protection device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0072] Figure 3 A self-balancing device for a distribution panel protection device according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0073] Reference Figure 1The compartment frame 20 is fixed to the lower part of the compartment shell 1 and is composed of "U"-shaped corner tubes, with the opening area facing downwards. The base frame 10 is composed of a ""-shaped square tube and is installed at the lower part of the compartment frame 20, but the open area can be installed at the bottom to allow for installation at the top. An anti-seismic device 100 can be installed in the space between the compartment frame 20 and the base frame 10.

[0074] Here, the base frame 10 can be installed by inserting it into the storage cabinet frame 20. Therefore, even if the compartment frame 20 swings vertically when vibration occurs, the compartment frame 20 and the base frame 10 can avoid each other.

[0075] See Figure 2 and Figure 3 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the switchgear protection device is a switchgear protection device that applies a vibration reduction system based on an elastomer. A plurality of housing portions 100 are installed at the lower part of the distribution panel. The housing portions 100 are disposed inside the housing portions 100, but the buffer portion 200 buffers the vibration generated in the housing portions 100 by changing the height of the housing portions 100. The buffer portion 200 is characterized by a self-generating device 300, that is, the vibration is buffered in the buffer portion 200 to generate a predetermined electrical energy.

[0076] Next, the housing portion 100 may include an upper load 110 that contacts the lower part of the distribution panel and a lower part of the upper load 110 provided by a predetermined distance interval 120.

[0077] The buffer section 200 may include a balance shaft 220 inserted through the center portion of the upper load 110 in a vertical direction and an upper through hole 230 formed through the center portion of the upper load 110.

[0078] One side of the balance shaft 220 passes through the upper through hole 230 and is exposed above the upper load 110, while the other side of the balance shaft 220 can contact the upper surface of the lower load 120.

[0079] The buffer 200 may also include a center spring 210 mounted on the balance shaft 220.

[0080] Here, the upper part of the central spring 210 contacts the lower surface of the upper load 110, and the lower part of the central spring 210 contacts the upper surface of the lower load 120. The upper load 110 is characterized by the balance shaft 220, which causes the distance between it and the lower load 120 to change.

[0081] Next, the self-generating device 300 may include a hydraulic piston 310 inserted through multiple points of the sub-load 120 in a vertical direction and a lower through hole 320 formed through multiple points of the sub-load 120.

[0082] One side of the hydraulic piston 310 passes through the lower through hole 320 and is exposed to the lower part of the lower load 120, while the other side of the hydraulic piston 310 can contact the lower surface of the upper load 110.

[0083] On the other hand, the self-generating device 300 has a side spring 330 mounted on a hydraulic piston 310, which brings the hydraulic piston 310 exposed under the sub-load 120 in and out. The buoy 340 is fixed to the ground and receives water at a predetermined level inside. The buoy 340 is disposed inside the water tank 350 and the buoy 340, but may further include a battery 360 for storing the electricity generated by the self-generating device 300.

[0084] The buoy section 340 can be positioned on the water surface contained in the water tank 350.

[0085] The upper through hole 230 and the lower through hole 320 can be manufactured in parallel.

[0086] The upper load 110 can compress the hydraulic oil contained inside the buoy section 340 because the distance to the lower load 120 varies by the vibration along the hydraulic piston 310.

[0087] The self-generating device 300 is characterized by including an anchor 370, which further restricts the range, allowing the buoy portion 340 to move within the range of the tank portion 350.

[0088] Here, the hydraulic cylinder power generation structure that utilizes the vertical movement of a hydraulic cylinder on the water surface is a system that uses the rising and falling motion of waves or water to operate the hydraulic cylinder and thus convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, and known technologies can be applied.

[0089] Next, the distribution panel protection device of the elastomeric vibration damping system includes a boundary water level sensor 410 installed on one side of the water tank 350 to measure whether the water level in the water tank 350 has reached the specified height 410; a water level control pipe 420 installed on one side of the water tank 350 to serve as a water supply channel to the water tank 350; and a boundary water level sensor 410 receiving a signal from the boundary water level sensor 410 to indicate that the height of the boundary water level sensor 410 has reached the height at which the boundary water level sensor 410 is installed. It may further include a control device provided in the water level control pipe 420 for providing signals to open and close the valve 430.

[0090] Since the water level in the water tank 350 is controlled by a signal from the control device, vibration is generated in the upper load 110, which in turn operates the power generation system of the hydraulic cylinder.

[0091] On the other hand, in the self-balancing distribution panel protection device based on an elastomer according to an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of housing units 100 and housing portions 100 are installed to contact the lower part of the distribution panel at least three points. However, the buffer portion 200 buffers the vibration generated by the housing portion 100 by changing the height of the housing portion 100. The lower surface of the distribution panel forms an imaginary rectangle. The housing portion 100 is arranged such that the center of gravity of the pattern connected to the housing portion 100 is the center of gravity of the imaginary rectangle formed on the lower surface of the distribution panel. The self-balancing distribution panel protection device based on an elastomer is characterized by including an additional self-balancing device 400 to allow the imaginary rectangle formed on the lower surface of the distribution panel to return to a state parallel to the ground.

[0092] Next, the housing portion 100 may include an upper load 110 in contact with the lower part of the distribution panel and a lower part of the upper load 110, which is prepared by spacing the lower parts of the upper load 120 at a predetermined distance.

[0093] The buffer section 200 may include a balance shaft 220 inserted through the center portion of the upper load 110 in a vertical direction and an upper through hole 230 formed through the center portion of the upper load 110.

[0094] One side of the balance shaft 220 passes through the upper through hole 230 and is exposed above the upper load 110, while the other side of the balance shaft 220 can contact the upper surface of the lower load 120.

[0095] The buffer 200 may also include a center spring 210 mounted on the balance shaft 220.

[0096] The upper part of the central spring 210 contacts the lower surface of the upper load 110, and the lower part of the central spring 210 contacts the upper surface of the lower load 120. The upper load 110 is characterized by the distance between itself and the lower load 120 changing due to vibration along the balance shaft 220.

[0097] Next, the self-balancing distribution panel protection device based on the elastomer may also include a buoy portion 340 disposed at the bottom of the sub-load 120 and a water tank 350 for fixing to the ground and accommodating a predetermined internal water level, as well as a buoy portion 340 for accommodating the buoy portion 340.

[0098] The buoy section 340 can be positioned on the water surface contained in the water tank 350.

[0099] The self-balancing device 400 includes a boundary water level sensor 410, which is installed on one side of the water tank 350 and serves as a channel for supplying water to the water tank 350. The boundary water level sensor 410 is used to measure whether the water level in the water tank 350 has been reached. A water level control pipe 420 is installed on one side of the water tank 350 and serves as a channel for supplying water to the water tank 350. The device also includes a control device to provide signals to open and close a valve 430 provided in the water level control pipe 420.

[0100] Next, the water tank 350 can consist of four water tanks arranged radially.

[0101] The water level control pipe 420 can be composed of water tank sections 350 connected to each other.

[0102] The self-balancing device 400 consists of each surrounding the water tank 350, the discharge collection tank 440 for collecting the released water received in the water tank 350, and the discharge water level sensor 450 for measuring the water level collected in the discharge collection tank 440, which may further include the water level collected in the discharge collection tank 440.

[0103] The control device is characterized by receiving water level information from four water tanks measured by a discharge water level sensor 450 and providing signals to open and close valves 430 provided in a water level control pipe 420.

[0104] Next, the water tank section 350 can be divided into a first water tank 351 and three second water tanks 352.

[0105] A self-balancing device 400 is provided at the center of an imaginary rectangle connected to the first pool 351 and the second pool 352. A rainwater collection pool 460 is used to collect rainwater. The rainwater collection pipe 460 is connected to the first pool 351. The rainwater collection pipe 470 is connected to the rainwater collector 460. The sedimentation collection pipe 440 is connected to the rainwater collector 460. The discharge collection pool 440 is connected to the rainwater collection pool 460, which becomes a channel 460480 for recycling water collected in the sedimentation pool 460. This may include more.

[0106] The first storage tank 351 and the second storage tank 352 may each have an emission collection tank 440.

[0107] In the control device, the water level information of the four water tanks measured by the boundary water level sensor 410 is synthesized, and the opening and closing signals of the valve 430 installed in the rainwater supply pipe 470 are characterized by providing signals.
