Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of transformer technology, specifically to a transformer with a rapid oil drainage structure. Background Technology
[0002] Oil-immersed transformers are transformer equipment that uses transformer oil as the main insulating and cooling medium. They utilize the dielectric properties and thermal conductivity of oil to achieve safe and reliable insulation and heat dissipation while efficiently transmitting electrical energy.
[0003] As a core piece of equipment in the power system, the efficiency of oil drainage and bottom cleaning of oil-immersed transformers directly affects the operational safety and ease of maintenance. Currently, existing technologies suffer from the following key challenges:
[0004] Traditional transformers rely on a single gravity-driven oil drain line, which can only drain the upper and middle layers of oil. Due to the presence of dead zones such as supports and corners at the bottom of the tank, sludge and impurities are prone to accumulate, resulting in a high residual oil rate. Especially during emergency oil draining, gravity-driven operation alone cannot achieve rapid oil flow, delaying fire control or fault handling.
[0005] During the oil draining process, metal shavings, sludge and other impurities deposited at the bottom of the oil tank can easily enter the drain pipe with the oil, causing the pipe to become blocked. Traditional structures require the bottom cover of the oil tank to be removed for cleaning, which is cumbersome, takes a long time to maintain, and is also easy to contaminate the insulating oil.
[0006] Traditional oil drainage systems lack integrated control, requiring manual switching of valves and equipment for different scenarios such as emergency, daily, and transportation, resulting in slow response. Furthermore, they lack multi-signal linkage protection for pressure, oil level, and fire, making them prone to safety risks due to misoperation or signal lag.
[0007] Oil drain lines often use a combination of a separate oil pump and a check valve, with many interfaces, making them prone to oil leakage due to vibration or aging of seals; in some scenarios, oil backflow can cause pressure fluctuations in the oil tank, affecting the stability of equipment operation.

When the valve is closed, the sealing surface uses a hard alloy sealing surface + fluororubber sealing ring, and the leakage is ≤0.01ml / min.
[0044] In a preferred embodiment, an electromagnetic ball valve 39 is connected to the inner wall of the oil tank 2 near the middle layer via a connecting pipe, and a throttle valve 40 is connected to the end of the electromagnetic ball valve 39 away from the oil tank 2 via a connecting pipe.

The heavy gas relay 35 is connected to the inner wall of the oil tank 2 through a connecting pipe. The float-type oil level sensor 34 is a magnetic float type, model UQK-651, which outputs a 4-20mA current signal to the PLC controller 43 to realize real-time oil level monitoring and remote transmission. The heavy gas relay 35 is a QJ1-80 type, installed between the oil conservator 33 and the oil tank 2. When a short circuit fault occurs in the oil tank, the heavy gas action can be triggered when the oil flow velocity is ≥1m / s.

[0050] Working principle:
[0051] I. Emergency Oil Drainage in a Fire:
[0052] 1. Nitrogen pressurization start: Control the opening of pressure reducing valve 30 to reduce the pressure of high-pressure nitrogen in nitrogen storage tank 29 to 0.3-0.5MPa, and at the same time open the electric control check valve 31. Nitrogen is filled into oil tank 2 through pipeline, forming internal pressure thrust to accelerate oil discharge.
[0053] 2. Three-layer oil drain components are linked: The upper layer pressure-sensing electric valve 38 opens automatically, and the middle and upper layer oil flows into the main oil drain pipe 25 under the action of gravity and nitrogen thrust; the middle layer electromagnetic ball valve 39 and throttle valve 40 are fully open, and the middle layer oil flows quickly; the lower layer electromagnetic gate valve 10 opens, and the motor 5 drives the transmission rod 6 to rotate the oil inlet plate 7 at 5-10 r / min. The silicone scraper 8 scrapes away impurities at the bottom of the oil tank trough 2. The oil and impurities enter the filter plate 12 through the guide groove 9. The spiral guide rib 13 forms a vortex flow to separate the impurities. The filtered oil enters the auxiliary cylinder 21 through the through groove 14, cylinder 15, connecting pipe 19, and telescopic hose 20. The one-way gear pump 23 starts negative pressure suction to send the oil into the main oil drain pipe 25.
[0054] 3. Oil drain direction control: Switching valve 41 diverts the oil to the emergency oil tank to prevent the fire from spreading;
[0055] 4. Safety protection: If the pressure sensor 32 detects a pressure ≥ 0.6MPa, the PLC controller 43 immediately closes the electrically controlled check valve 31 and triggers the pressure relief valve to release pressure; when the float-type oil level sensor 34 detects that the oil level is below the lower limit (oil tank is drained), the electrically controlled check valve 31, the one-way gear pump 23, the oil drain valves of each layer and the pressure relief valve are closed in sequence, and the emergency oil draining is completed.
[0056] II. Routine oil change:
[0057] When the operator sends a "daily oil change" command via the touch screen of control cabinet 42, and the float-type oil level sensor 34 detects that the oil level is ≥ the normal oil level line, the PLC controller 43 starts the daily program.
[0058] 1. Nitrogen circuit closed: The electrically controlled one-way valve 31 remains de-energized and closed to prevent nitrogen pressurization from affecting the purity of oil recovery;
[0059] 2. Layered oil discharge control: The upper layer pressure-sensing electric valve 38 is closed to prevent light impurities from mixing into the recovered oil; the middle layer electromagnetic ball valve 39 is open, and the throttle valve 40 adjusts the flow rate to 20-30 m³ / h to avoid oil splashing; the lower layer electromagnetic gate valve 10 is open, and the oil enters the auxiliary cylinder 21 after being filtered by the filter plate 12. When the float-type oil level sensor 34 detects that the oil level is lower than that of the middle layer main pipe, the one-way gear pump 23 automatically starts to suck up the residual oil.
[0060] 3. Oil recovery: Switch valve 41 is turned to connect to an external oil storage tank or oil filter. The recovered oil can be reused after filtration.
[0061] 4. Oil change: When the oil level drops to the lower limit of oil change, the PLC controller 43 closes the upper and middle layer valves, while the lower layer solenoid gate valve 10 and the one-way gear pump 23 continue to suck up the residual oil, and the daily oil change is completed.
[0062] III. Oil Discharge During Transportation:
[0063] When a manual "transport oil drain" command is sent, and the float-type oil level sensor 34 detects an oil level ≥ the normal oil level line, the PLC controller 43 starts the transport program:
[0064] 1. Low-pressure pressurization: The electrically controlled one-way valve 31 opens, the nitrogen storage tank 29 is pressurized to 0.2MPa, and the residual oil at the bottom of the auxiliary oil tank is discharged;
[0065] 2. Full-stage oil drainage: The upper, middle and lower oil drainage valves open simultaneously, the motor 5 drives the oil inlet plate 7 to rotate and scrape the sludge, and the one-way gear pump 23 runs throughout the process to ensure that the oil and impurities are completely discharged; the spiral guide rib 13 cooperates with the filter plate 12 to prevent impurities from clogging the pipeline.
[0066] 3. Oil collection: Switch valve 41 directs the oil storage tank to collect waste oil.
[0067] 4. Draining and Finishing: When the float-type oil level sensor 34 detects that the oil level has dropped to the lower limit for transportation (residual oil rate <0.5%), the PLC controller 43 sequentially closes the electrically controlled one-way valve 31, the solenoid gate valve 10, the oil drain valves of each layer, and the one-way gear pump 23; remove the connecting screws of baffle 1 26 and baffle 2 27, slide the baffle along the slide groove 28 to open the baffle, take out the filter plate 12 to clean impurities, and the transportation and draining are completed, ensuring that the transformer is lightweight and easy to transport.
