Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of electrical connectors, in particular to a high-voltage current aluminum busbar connector. Background Art
[0002] In the fields of electric power, electronics, communication, etc., the connection between aluminum and copper is a common connection method, mainly used for transmitting current. However, due to the different electrode potentials of aluminum and copper, when they are in contact, a primary battery will be formed, resulting in electrochemical corrosion. This will not only affect the connection stability, but also may cause an increase in resistance, thus affecting the current transmission efficiency.
[0003] The existing solutions mainly add a layer of nickel or other metals between the aluminum busbar and the copper busbar as a transition layer to reduce the influence of electrochemical corrosion. In addition, there are also some solutions that change the shape or structure of the aluminum busbar and the copper busbar to reduce their contact area, thereby reducing the occurrence of electrochemical corrosion. However, the above solutions still have some problems. First, the method of adding a transition layer can reduce electrochemical corrosion, but it increases the manufacturing cost and process complexity. Second, changing the shape or structure of the aluminum busbar and the copper busbar may affect the connection reliability and stability. In addition, the existing anti-corrosion devices often cannot effectively prevent the electrochemical corrosion at the aluminum-copper connection. Summary of the Utility Model
