[0002] A main transformer, or simply a main transformer, is a step-down transformer used primarily for power transmission and transformation within a unit or substation. It is responsible for voltage and current conversion and power transmission, and its performance directly impacts the safe and stable operation of the power system. During operation, the main transformer generates a certain amount of heat, causing it to overheat and increase in temperature, which reduces its service life. Therefore, the temperature of the main transformer should be closely monitored during operation, especially in high ambient temperatures, under full load, or under overload.

[0003] Temperature-sensing cables, as cable-type, linear heat-sensing fire detectors, use the thermoelectric effect to infer the medium temperature by measuring the voltage difference between conductors, thereby enabling temperature monitoring and measurement. By wrapping the temperature-sensing cables around the transformer body and the outside of the oil conservator of the main transformer, they can effectively monitor temperature changes within the transformer and conservator, promptly identifying potential temperature anomalies and taking measures to prevent equipment damage or accidents.

[0004] In the prior art, temperature-sensing cables are typically installed on the main transformer by welding or clamping. However, during substation construction, welding or adding bolt holes to the main transformer is not permitted on site to ensure its safety. Therefore, safely and securely installing the temperature-sensing cable on the main transformer presents challenges.

Obviously, the description is only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0036] In addition, it should be noted that the descriptions of "first", "second", etc. in this utility model are for descriptive purposes only and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of such features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the fact that they can be implemented by ordinary technicians in this field. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this utility model.

[0037] In the prior art, temperature-sensing cables are typically installed on the main transformer by welding or clamping. However, during substation construction, welding or adding bolt holes to the main transformer is not permitted on site to ensure its safety. Therefore, safely and reliably installing the temperature-sensing cable on the main transformer presents challenges.

[0038] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides a temperature-sensing cable installation bracket and a main transformer.

[0039] See also Figure 1-4 In one embodiment of the present invention, the temperature sensing cable mounting bracket is applied to the main transformer 1; specifically, the temperature sensing cable mounting bracket includes a bracket body 2, which is arranged on the outside of the main transformer 1; the first end of the bracket body 2 is fixedly connected to the shell 103 of the main transformer 1, and the second end of the bracket body 2 is provided with one or more mounting rings 3, which are used to be sleeved on the outside of the temperature sensing cable 4 to fixedly connect the temperature sensing cable 4 to the bracket body 2.

[0040] The technical solution of the present invention is to pre-install a bracket body on the outside of the main transformer 1 before shipment. Specifically, the first end of the bracket body is fixedly connected to the housing 103 of the main transformer 1. One or more mounting rings 3 are provided at the second end of the bracket body 2. The mounting rings 3 are used to sleeve the outside of the temperature-sensing cable 4 to securely connect the temperature-sensing cable 4 to the bracket body 2. Through the above technical solution, the bracket body 2 is pre-installed on the main transformer 1 and used as a connecting medium between the main transformer 1 and the temperature-sensing cable 4. This not only meets the fixing requirements of the temperature-sensing cable 4, but also avoids welding the main transformer 1 or adding bolt holes to install the temperature-sensing cable 4 at the construction site, thereby achieving a safe, reliable and secure installation of the temperature-sensing cable 4 on the main transformer 1.

[0041] Specifically, the temperature-sensing cable 4 is wrapped around several bracket bodies 2 and laid outside the main transformer 1. This arrangement, through the cooperation of multiple bracket bodies 2, wraps the temperature-sensing cable 4 around the outside of the main transformer 1, resulting in a simple structure and strong practicality. Furthermore, this embodiment further provides that at least two temperature-sensing cables 4 are wrapped around the outside of each main transformer 1, with a predetermined distance between adjacent temperature-sensing cables 4. The provision of multiple sections of temperature-sensing cable 4 ensures that temperature monitoring can be performed in every area of ​​the main transformer 1 as much as possible, allowing for the timely detection of potential temperature anomalies and the implementation of measures to prevent equipment damage or accidents.

[0042] Further, refer to the attached Figure 1-2 For the transformer body 101 in the main transformer 1, since the cross-sectional shape of its shell 103 is generally a square structure, the bracket body 2 is arranged on opposite sides of each corner of the shell 103; this can prevent the temperature sensing cable 4 from contacting the corners of the transformer body 101 at the bend, thereby preventing the outside of the temperature sensing cable 4 from being damaged by the sharp friction at the corners of the transformer body 101.

[0043] Further, refer to the attached Figure 3-4 For the oil pillow 102 in the main transformer 1, since the cross-sectional shape of its shell 103 is usually a circular structure, the bracket body 2 is arranged in a circular shape at equal distances around the axis of the shell 103 on the outer side of the shell 103; in this way, it can be ensured that the temperature sensing cable 4 can be surrounded by the outer periphery of the oil pillow 102 in a nearly concentric circle manner.

[0044] There are many specific structures of the bracket body 2. In one embodiment, refer to the attached Figure 5-6 When the cross-sectional shape of the transformer body 101 or its housing 103 is a square structure, the bracket body 2 is designed to include a first connecting beam 5. The first connecting beam 5 includes a first plate 501 and a second plate 502 connected at right angles to each other, that is, the first connecting beam 5 is equivalent to an angle steel structure. The mounting ring 3 is mounted on the horizontally arranged first plate 501. The end of the first connecting beam 5 is fixedly connected to the third plate 6. The flat surface of the third plate 6 is aligned with the outer surface of the square structure of the housing 103, and the third plate 6 is fixedly connected to the housing 103. In this arrangement, considering that the mounting surface of the square housing 103 is generally a flat structure, this embodiment fixes the first connecting beam 5 to the housing 103 via the third plate 6, so that the flat surface of the third plate 6 is aligned with the flat surface of the housing 103. This maximizes the connection area between the third plate 6 and the housing 103, thereby improving the mounting security between the bracket body 2 and the housing 103, and further ensuring that the temperature sensing cable 4 can be safely, reliably and securely mounted on the main transformer 1.

[0045] Furthermore, the third plate 6 is connected to the housing 103 by welding. In this way, the third plate 6 and the housing 103 are fixed to each other by welding, which has a simple structure and strong practicality.

[0046] Regarding the specific structure of the bracket body 2, in another embodiment, refer to the attached Figure 7-9 When the cross-sectional shape of the shell 103 of the oil pillow 102 is a circular structure, the bracket body 2 is designed to include a second connecting beam 8. The first end of the second connecting beam 8 is fixedly connected to a connecting member 9 of a cylindrical structure. The curved surface of the connecting member 9 contacts the outer surface of the curved structure of the shell 103. The connecting member 9 and the shell 103 are connected by welding. In this arrangement, considering that the mounting surface of the circular shell 103 is generally a curved surface structure, in order to facilitate the curved surface connection, the connecting member 9 is set to a cylindrical structure. The curved surface of the connecting member 9 contacts the curved surface of the shell 103 to improve the contact success rate between the connecting member 9 and the shell 103. Then, the connecting member 9 and the shell 103 are welded together on both sides of the contact surface, thereby ensuring the installation firmness between the bracket body 2 and the shell 103, and further ensuring that the temperature sensing cable 4 can be safely, reliably and firmly installed on the main transformer 1.

[0047] Furthermore, the axial direction of the second connecting beam 8 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the connecting member 9; and a triangular reinforcement member 10 is provided at the connection between the second connecting beam 8 and the connecting member 9. This arrangement, taking into account the cylindrical structure of the connecting column, enhances the connection strength between the second connecting beam 8 and the connecting member 9, preventing fracture at the connection between the second connecting beam 8 and the connecting member 9, which could affect the installation of the temperature-sensing cable 4.

[0048] As a preferred solution of the above embodiment, refer to the attached Figure 10The mounting ring 3 includes a mounting strip 301 with a long strip structure, and the mounting strip 301 is made of a deformable metal material; the middle area of ​​the mounting strip 301 is used to be sleeved on the outside of the temperature sensing cable 4, and the end area of ​​the mounting strip 301 is used to be fixedly connected to the bracket body 2. Such a setting is made in view of the fact that the diameter sizes of the temperature-sensing cables 4 of different manufacturers on the market vary to varying degrees, and in order to ensure that the mounting ring 3 can be firmly sleeved on the outside of the temperature-sensing cables 4 of various sizes; in this embodiment, the mounting ring 3 is set as a mounting bar 301 with a long strip structure. Since the mounting bar 301 is made of a deformable metal material, during the installation process, the middle area of ​​the mounting bar 301 is first sleeved on the outside of the temperature-sensing cable 4. At this time, the middle area of ​​the mounting bar 301 is bent into an arc-shaped structure to fit the outside of the temperature-sensing cable 4; then the end area of ​​the mounting bar 301 is fixedly connected to the bracket body 2. At this time, the temperature-sensing cable 4 is confined to the closed area surrounded by the middle area of ​​the mounting bar 301 and the bracket body 2, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the temperature-sensing cable 4 to the bracket body 2.

[0049] There are many ways to fix the end area of ​​the mounting strip 301 to the bracket body 2. In one embodiment, the end area of ​​the mounting strip 301 is provided with a plurality of locking holes 302; the locking holes 302 are used for the locking bolts 11 to pass through, so that the end area of ​​the mounting strip 301 and the bracket body 2 are fixed to each other.

[0050] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 5-6 When the cross-section of the housing 103 of the transformer body 101 is a square structure, the mounting ring 3 is fixedly connected to the horizontally disposed first plate 501. At least two first through-holes 503 are provided on the first plate 501. After the end regions of the mounting bar 301 pass through the first through-holes 503, locking bolts 11 are passed through the locking holes 302 at the opposite ends of the mounting bar 301 and secured with locking nuts 12. The locking bolts 11 prevent the end regions of the mounting bar 301 from being withdrawn from the first through-holes 503, thereby securing the mounting ring 3 to the bracket body 2. A plurality of locking holes 302 are also provided at the end regions of the mounting bar 301. These locking holes 302 are arranged in a linear array along the length of the mounting bar 301 to accommodate temperature-sensing cables 4 of varying diameters. It is understandable that when selecting the locking hole 302 and the locking bolt 11 for installation, the operator selects the locking hole 302 as close to the first through hole portion 503 as possible, so as to ensure that there is no loose gap between the mounting bar 301 and the bracket body 2.

[0051] For details, please refer to the attached Figure 7-9, when the cross-sectional shape of the shell 103 of the oil pillow 102 is a circular structure, since the mounting ring 3 is fixedly connected to the end of the second connecting beam 8, an insertion hole 801 is provided at the second end of the second connecting beam 8, and second through-hole portions 802 are respectively provided on the opposite sides of the second connecting beam 8, wherein the second through-hole portions 802 and the insertion hole 801 are communicated with each other; after the end area of ​​the mounting strip 301 is inserted into the interior of the insertion hole 801, its locking hole 302 is aligned with the second through-hole portion 802 as much as possible; then the locking bolt 11 is used to pass through the second through-hole portion 802 and the locking hole 302 in sequence, and locked with the locking nut 12. At this time, due to the restriction of the locking bolt 11, the end area of ​​the mounting strip 301 cannot be withdrawn from the insertion hole 801, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the mounting ring 3 to the bracket body 2. Several locking holes 302 are also provided at the end of the mounting bar 301. These locking holes 302 are arranged in a linear array along the length of the mounting bar 301 to accommodate temperature-sensing cables 4 of varying diameters. It is understood that when selecting the locking holes 302 to align with the second through-holes 802, the operator will preferably select a locking hole 302 as close to the second end of the second connecting beam 8 as possible to ensure that there is no loose gap between the mounting bar 301 and the bracket body 2.
