Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of cable fault simulation, and particularly relates to a cable fault simulation device. Background Technique

[0002] The most direct cause of cable faults is the reduction of insulation and breakdown. There are many factors leading to the reduction of insulation. Cable faults can be summarized into three categories: grounding, short circuit, and open circuit. For the methods of finding faults, they are divided into zero potential method, bridge method, capacitance current measurement method, and sound measurement method. The sound measurement method is mainly for finding buried cable fault points.

[0003] Since buried cables are buried deep underground, inspection personnel cannot directly observe cable faults through the appearance. They need to judge by sound and experience. For new inspection personnel, they lack work experience and cannot often come into contact with buried cable faults to gain experience. Therefore, a cable fault simulation device is needed to simulate buried cable faults for training. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a cable fault simulation device.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides a cable fault simulation device, including a bottom plate. Fixed connection plates are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom plate. A support plate is fixedly connected between the two fixed connection plates. A sliding tube is slidably connected between the two fixed connection plates. The sliding tube penetrates through the fixed connection plates. A square through groove is provided on the sliding tube. A cable is fixedly connected inside the sliding tube. A fault point is provided on the cable. A baffle is provided between the two fixed connection plates.

[0006] Further, two round rods are rotatably connected between the two fixed connection plates. The two round rods penetrate through the fixed connection plates. The outer side of the round rod is fixedly connected to the baffle. Two cross plates are fixedly connected to the outer side of one of the fixed connection plates. Mounting plates are fixedly connected to one side of each cross plate. A servo motor is fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate. The main shaft of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the round rod.

[0007] Further, a square through slot is provided on the bottom plate. Two electric push rods are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the bottom plate. One end of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to a support plate.

[0008] Further, the shape of the fixed connection plate is an isosceles trapezoid, and the length of the upper bottom surface of the fixed connection plate is greater than the length of the lower bottom surface.

[0009] Further, two support seats are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the bottom plate, and the two support seats are close to both sides of the lower surface of the bottom plate.

[0010] Further, the sliding tube and the cable are located at the lower ends of the two fixing plates, close to the bottom plate.

[0011] The cable fault simulation device proposed by the present utility model can bring the following beneficial effects:

[0012] First, by setting the sliding tube, sand is filled between the two baffles and the fixing plates, covering the sliding tube and the cable. Both ends of the cable are connected to the test circuit to simulate the situation of buried cable faults. Maintenance personnel can find the discharge sound through the pickup to determine the fault point, so as to train the maintenance personnel to determine the buried cable fault point by the sound measurement method, increasing the work experience of the maintenance personnel. When in use, the sliding tube can be pulled to move the cable, making the fault point move, increasing variables and facilitating continuous training.

[0027] Such as Figures 1 to 5As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the utility model provides a cable fault simulation device, which includes a bottom plate 1. Fixed connection plates 2 are fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom plate 1. A support plate 3 is fixedly connected between the two fixed connection plates 2. A sliding tube 4 is slidably connected between the two fixed connection plates 2. The sliding tube 4 penetrates through the fixed connection plates 2. A square through groove is provided on the sliding tube 4. A cable is fixedly connected inside the sliding tube 4. A fault point is provided on the cable. A baffle 5 is provided between the two fixed connection plates 2. A space similar to a container is formed among the two baffles 5, the bottom plate 1 at the bottom, and the two fixed connection plates 2. Sand is filled between the two baffles 5 and the fixed connection plates 2. The sand covers the sliding tube 4 and the cable. Both ends of the cable are connected to a test circuit. Due to cable breakage, the cable core contacts the sand, and the faulty cable core discharges. The faulty cable core discharges to the insulating layer at the fault point, generating a "zi, zi" spark discharge sound, thereby simulating the situation of buried cable faults. Maintenance personnel can use a pickup to find the discharge sound and then determine the fault point, so as to train maintenance personnel to determine the buried cable fault point by the sound measurement method. When in use, the sliding tube 4 can be pulled to move the cable and make the fault point move, increasing variables and facilitating continuous training.

[0028] Specifically, two round rods 6 are rotatably connected between the two fixed connection plates 2. The two round rods 6 penetrate through the fixed connection plates 2. The outer sides of the round rods 6 are fixedly connected to the baffle 5. Two cross plates 7 are fixedly connected to the outer side of one of the fixed connection plates 2. Installation plates 8 are fixedly connected to one side of each cross plate 7. A servo motor 9 is fixedly connected to one side of the installation plate 8. The main shaft of the servo motor 9 is fixedly connected to the round rod 6. During the training process, the staff turns the sand to increase the fluidity of the sand. Then, the servo motor 9 is turned on to drive the two baffles 5 to slowly rotate. The two baffles 5 approach each other, and the distance between the two baffles 5 decreases. As Figure 5 shown in the figure, while the volume of the sand remains basically unchanged, the depth of the sand between the two baffles 5 increases accordingly, thereby simulating different buried depths of the cable and increasing the training flexibility of maintenance personnel.

[0029] Specifically, a square through groove is provided on the bottom plate 1. Two electric push rods 10 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the bottom plate 1. One end of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 10 is fixedly connected to a support plate 11. When the device is in use, the support plate 11 blocks the square through groove to prevent the sand from flowing out, facilitating the simulation training of maintenance personnel. When it is necessary to clean the sand, the electric push rod 10 on the bottom plate 1 pushes the support plate 11 away from the square through groove, and the sand flows out through the square through groove, making it more convenient to clean the sand.

[0030] Specifically, the shape of the fixed connection plate 2 is trapezoidal. Two electric push rods 10 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the bottom plate 1. One end of the telescopic rod of the electric push rod 10 is fixedly connected to a support plate 11. The shape of the fixed connection plate 2 is trapezoidal, with the long side on the top and the short side on the bottom. Initially, the two baffles 5 are inclined outwards and rest on the support plate 3, giving the baffle 5 a certain amount of movement space.

[0031] Specifically, two support seats 12 are fixedly connected to the lower surface of the bottom plate 1. The two support seats 12 are close to both sides of the lower surface of the bottom plate 1. The support seats 12 lift the device, and it is convenient to place a container under the bottom plate 1 to catch the flowing sand.

[0032] Specifically, the sliding tube 4 and the cable are located at the lower ends of the two fixing plates 2, close to the bottom plate 1. The sliding tube 4 and the cable are located at the lower ends of the fixing plates 2. A small amount of sand can cover the sliding tube 4 and the cable, making it more convenient to use.

[0033] Working principle: Sand is filled between the two baffles 5 and the fixing plates 2, covering the sliding tube 4 and the cable. Both ends of the cable are connected to the test circuit. Due to cable damage, the cable core contacts the sand, and the faulty core wire of the cable discharges. At the faulty point, the cable core discharges to the insulating layer, generating a "zi, zi" spark discharge sound, thus simulating the situation of buried cable faults. Maintenance personnel can search for the discharge sound through the pickup to determine the fault point. By pulling the sliding tube 4 to move the cable, the fault point can be moved to increase variables. At the same time, during the training process, the sand is turned over to increase the fluidity of the sand. Then, the servo motor 9 is turned on to drive the two baffles 5 to rotate slowly. The two baffles 5 approach each other, and the distance between the two baffles 5 decreases, resulting in an increase in the depth of the sand between the two baffles 5, thereby simulating different buried depths of the cable.

[0034] Each embodiment in this specification is described in a progressive manner. The same or similar parts between the embodiments can be referred to each other, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. In particular, for the system embodiment, since it is basically similar to the method embodiment, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts can be referred to the description of the method embodiment.

[0035] The above description is only for the embodiments of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and changes. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
