[0002] As is well known, an oil-immersed transformer is a common type of power transformer. Its main feature is that the space between the windings and the iron core of the transformer is filled with insulating oil for cooling and insulation. Oil-immersed transformers are usually used in power transmission and distribution systems to step up or step down high-voltage electrical energy and then transmit it to the user side.

An installation part is arranged on the outer wall of the transformer body, and the heating device is installed on the transformer body through the installation part. The heat generated by the heating device can be transferred from the outer wall of the transformer body to the inside of the transformer body. The heating device includes a heating box body and a partition arranged in the heating box body. The heating box body is arranged close to the bottom surface of the transformer body; the partition divides the space in the heating box body into multiple heating cavities, solving the technical problem that it is difficult to guarantee the reliability of the oil-immersed transformer during storage and operation in a low-temperature environment.
[0004] However, there are still certain deficiencies in the existing oil-immersed transformers: Most of the existing oil-immersed transformers adopt the assembly form of a housing and a cover to place the windings, iron core, insulating oil, etc. Due to the influence of the shape and assembly form of the oil-immersed transformer body itself, it is necessary for operators to intermittently monitor and inspect the oil level of the insulating oil, which is undoubtedly inconvenient to use. Content of the Utility Model

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , There are two mounting brackets 2, and the two mounting brackets 2 are symmetrically distributed on the oil-immersed transformer body 1. Through the setting of the mounting brackets 2, the oil-immersed transformer body 1 can be installed and used. There are multiple heat dissipation fins 3, and the multiple heat dissipation fins 3 are evenly distributed on the oil-immersed transformer body 1. Through the setting of the heat dissipation fins 3, the heat dissipation effect of the oil-immersed transformer body 1 can be ensured. A plug block 7 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the mounting plate 5, and the plug block 7 is slidably connected to the oil-immersed transformer body 1. Through the existence of the plug block 7, the mounting plate 5 can be inserted and positioned for use.
[0023] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , An oil level monitoring mechanism 11 is arranged inside the oil-immersed transformer body 1. The oil level monitoring mechanism 11 includes a mounting cylinder 111. The mounting cylinder 111 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the oil-immersed transformer body 1. A circulation hole 112 is formed on the surface of the mounting cylinder 111. There are multiple circulation holes 112, and the multiple circulation holes 112 are arranged in a circular array on the mounting cylinder 111. Through the setting of the circulation holes 112, the normal circulation of the insulating oil can be ensured. A contact switch 113 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the mounting cylinder 111, and the contact switch 113 is electrically connected to the three-color alarm lamp 6. A floating ball 114 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting cylinder 111.

[0025] Through the setting of the flow hole 112, the normal circulation of the insulating oil inside the mounting cylinder 111 can be ensured. Under the action of the buoyancy of the insulating oil, the floating ball 114 can be in a floating state. When the insulating oil gradually volatilizes and becomes less, the floating ball 114 gradually moves down along the inner wall of the mounting cylinder 111. When the floating ball 114 drives the contact switch two 115 to contact the contact switch one 113, the three-color alarm lamp 6 is in a closed-loop state, and thus the three-color alarm lamp 6 flashes to monitor and alarm the insulating oil at an ultra-low oil level.
