An oil-immersed transformer
By designing an alternating breathing mechanism and a drying mechanism, the automatic regeneration of the moisture-absorbing shell of the oil-immersed transformer is achieved, solving the problem of desiccant failure in a single cavity, ensuring the insulation performance of the transformer and reducing maintenance costs.

AI Technical Summary
Existing desiccant desiccators for oil-immersed transformers use a single-cavity desiccant, which is prone to saturation and failure after long-term operation. They require regular manual replacement, increasing maintenance costs and potentially causing moisture to enter the transformer oil, affecting insulation performance.
An alternating breathing mechanism is designed, in which a drive motor drives a rotating frame to intermittently cycle three sets of moisture-absorbing shells in a moisture-absorbing, drying, and standby mode. The desiccant is dried and regenerated using waste heat from the transformer. Combined with a self-sealing mechanism and a drying mechanism, the desiccant is ensured to remain effective.
This avoids desiccant saturation due to moisture absorption, reduces maintenance costs, ensures transformer insulation performance, enables automatic regeneration and continuous operation of the desiccant, and reduces downtime risks.
