Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of current transformers, in particular to an open current transformer which is convenient for accurate closure. Background Art

[0002] A current transformer (CT) is a sensor used to measure current in AC circuits. It measures and transforms current based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. When current flows through a conductor, it generates a magnetic field around it. A current transformer uses this principle to pass the measured current through a primary coil (primary winding), generating a magnetic field. This magnetic field then flows through a secondary coil (secondary winding), inducing an electric potential in the secondary coil. By measuring the potential in the secondary coil, the current in the primary coil can be inferred.

[0003] The joints between the upper and lower halves of a traditional open-end current transformer typically have varying degrees of gap due to limited mold precision. Coupled with the relatively soft nature of the plastic shell, the upper and lower magnetic core mating surfaces of the transformer are prone to misalignment when the shells are fastened together. This misalignment can cause severe magnetic leakage in the core's magnetic circuit, thereby affecting the transformer's accuracy. Users also have to manually correct the mating surfaces when misalignment is discovered, impacting installation efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an open current transformer that is easy to close accurately, which is conducive to achieving close fitting of the upper and lower magnetic core fitting surfaces, simple molds during shell material production, and convenient installation of the transformer.

By adding a guide slot and a guide boss on one side of the open current transformer's fastening, the transformer can be precisely fastened, preventing the accuracy loss caused by the easy misalignment of the mating surfaces of existing open current transformers, saving calibration time, and improving installation efficiency.

[0007] As a further limitation of this technical solution, the positioning plate is provided with a slot hole, the upper shell is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped snap boss, and the arc-shaped snap boss matches the slot hole. By providing the arc-shaped snap boss and the slot hole, the upper shell and the lower shell are fastened together, which is simple to operate and convenient to use.

[0008] As a further limitation of the present technical solution, the arc-shaped snap-fit ​​boss is made of elastic material and has an arc-shaped end. The arc-shaped snap-fit ​​boss is made of elastic material and enters the slot hole to achieve a stable connection between the arc-shaped snap-fit ​​boss and the positioning plate.

[0009] As a further limitation of the present technical solution, the upper shell is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, the lower shell is fixedly connected to the symmetrical ears, and the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the symmetrical ears.
