[0021] The features and performance of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0022] Currently, after being installed on the high-voltage equipment box, the welded box cover will inevitably have problems such as cracks, slag inclusions, and air holes during processing and manufacturing. Its quality control involves multiple links, making it difficult to reliably ensure that the quality and performance meet the requirements of high-voltage switchgear. As a result, during use, the box cover may not be able to withstand normal operating pressure, and may also allow moisture, dust, etc. to enter the equipment due to poor sealing, affecting the normal operation and safety of the equipment, not only reducing the service life of the equipment and increasing the cost of maintenance and replacement, but also seriously threatening the safe operation of the entire power system. Based on this, the utility model improves the existing box cover and provides a box cover for high-voltage switchgear to solve the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art.

[0023] The overall design concept of the box cover for high-voltage switchgear provided by the utility model is:

[0024] A box cover for high-voltage switchgear includes an integrally formed die-cast cover body, a sealing connection structure on the die-cast cover body surrounding wall and main cover plate, and an operating shaft mounting hole. The molding precision is high, ensuring the precise dimensional fit between the box cover and the box body, and reducing adjustment work during assembly. The operating shaft mounting hole allows the operating shaft to be fixed for easy operation by personnel; and ensures a correct correspondence between the operating shaft and the internal mechanical connections or electrical components of the equipment, helping to reduce swinging or movement of the operating shaft during use, preventing the operating shaft from falling off or being damaged, and ensuring the normal operation and operation of the equipment. The sealing connection structure on the die-cast box cover can achieve a sealed connection between the cover body and the box body, preventing safety hazards caused by leakage during operation of the high-voltage switchgear, and improving the safety of the high-voltage switchgear. At the same time, the die-cast cover body has a high precision, reducing or avoiding secondary machining, and has high production efficiency. At the same time, it can reduce production costs, making it particularly suitable for the field of high-voltage switchgear.

[0025] Based on the above overall introduction to the box cover for high-voltage switchgear of the present invention, a more specific embodiment is provided below on the basis of the overall introduction:

[0026] like Figures 1-6As shown, the operating shaft mounting hole 1 on the box cover is used to fix the operating shaft to prevent it from shaking or falling off during operation. The operating shaft mounting hole 1 is set in the middle area of ​​the box cover so that the operator can operate it conveniently. Specifically, the die-cast cover body has a hole that matches the output shaft of the operating mechanism. More specifically, the die-cast cover body is provided with circular holes with the same number as the operating shaft, and the diameter of the circular hole matches the operating shaft. In this embodiment, the die-cast cover body is provided with five operating shaft mounting holes 1 for installing the operating shaft, and three small holes are provided on the side of the operating shaft mounting hole 1, so that the operating shaft can be better accommodated and fixed through the circular hole. At the same time, the three small holes are used to fix the operating shaft mounting flange, so that the operating shaft can be sealed and firmly installed on the equipment, and correctly correspond to the internal mechanical connection or electrical components. Of course, in other embodiments, for equipment with relatively simple functions, only one hole or two holes can be opened for installing the operating shaft.

[0027] The outline of the main cover plate includes four large-diameter arc segments and a small-diameter arc segment connecting the two adjacent large-diameter arc segments, such as Figure 2 As shown, the surrounding wall includes a straight section 11 and a rounded section 2. The straight section 11 of the surrounding wall corresponds one-to-one to the large-diameter arc segment, and the rounded section 2 corresponds one-to-one to the small-diameter arc segment. Compared with the conventional straight plane in the prior art, stress concentration is avoided, and the outer periphery of the main cover plate and the surrounding wall is relatively flat, avoiding possible injuries to operators caused by sharp corners, reducing the risk of injury to operators caused by the corners of the box cover, especially improving safety during personnel operations such as equipment maintenance and inspection.

[0028] At the same time, the rounded corners 2 of the surrounding wall are less likely to accumulate dust or debris, facilitating daily cleaning and maintenance of the high-voltage switchgear, thereby helping to maintain the equipment in good operating condition and extend its service life. The petal-like rounded corners 2 also enhance the aesthetics of the box cover. In other embodiments, the four corners of the box cover can also be chamfered on the basis of the box cover being square, thereby reducing the sharpness to a certain extent; or the four corners of the box cover can also be set as bevels. Of course, to further improve production efficiency, the edges of the box cover can also be right angles. The box cover can be a square box cover adapted for the high-voltage switchgear.

[0029] In order to further increase the structural strength of the box cover, in this embodiment, the main cover plate is located on the inner side of the surrounding wall in the projection perpendicular to the main cover plate, and the root of the surrounding wall connected to the main cover plate has an inward transition section, thereby increasing the overall stiffness and strength of the box cover, enabling it to better withstand external impact or pressure, and improving the durability and safety of the equipment.

[0030] In addition, the box cover is provided with a cover connection hole 6 for connecting to the equipment box body. The box cover is connected to the high-voltage switchgear box body by bolts, which is simple and reliable, and easy to disassemble and repair. In other embodiments, the box cover is mounted on the box body using a buckle, which is also convenient for installation and removal.

[0031] In order to ensure the sealed assembly between the box cover and the high-voltage switchgear, a sealing ring installation groove is provided on the box cover for installing the sealing ring when the box cover is buckled on the high-voltage switch. The box cover has an outer flange for setting the sealing ring installation groove. The sealing ring installation groove on the outside of the box cover is easy to process, and only two upper and lower molds are required for die casting.

[0032] In this embodiment, in order to save space, Figure 4 As shown, the sealing ring mounting groove 4 is located on the inside of the box cover. Compared to the sealing ring mounting groove located on the outer flange of the box cover, this does not make the box cover too large. Specifically, an inner flange 3 is formed on the inner side of the end of the surrounding wall facing away from the main cover plate. The inner flange 3 is formed with the sealing ring mounting groove 4, with the opening facing away from the main cover plate. In this case, the above-mentioned upper and lower mold bodies are not applicable. Instead, a top film, four-petal film, and bottom mold structure are used. The bottom shape is formed in one go. After the top film is removed, the four petals are removed in sequence, thus achieving the one-step molding of the die-cast cover body.

[0033] When the cover is installed on the box body, it is used in conjunction with a sealing ring located at the end of the surrounding wall facing away from the main cover plate. The sealing ring is installed in the sealing ring sealing groove 4 to achieve a snap-fit ​​seal between the cover and the cover body. The cover body connection hole 6, the sealing ring installation groove 4, and the sealing ring together form a sealed connection structure that achieves a sealed connection between the cover and the box body. The sealing ring installation groove 4 is U-shaped, which allows the seal ring to fit tightly when the cover is installed on the high-voltage switchgear box body, forming a continuous sealing line, thereby improving the reliability and durability of the seal and effectively preventing leakage.

[0034] Based on the above overall introduction to the box cover for high-voltage switchgear of the present invention, a more specific embodiment is provided below on the basis of the overall introduction:

[0035] This embodiment focuses on the detailed description of the wiring harness fixing structure.

[0036] The main cover plate of the die-cast cover body is provided with a harness fixing structure 5 for fixing the harness inside the equipment box, which effectively fixes and protects the high-voltage harness inside the equipment box to prevent it from loosening, wearing or being damaged due to vibration, impact and other factors during the operation of the equipment, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the high-voltage switchgear.

[0037] The wiring harness fixing structure 5 is a screw sleeve formed when the die-cast cover is disposable. In the present embodiment, eight screw sleeves are evenly distributed circumferentially on the die-cast cover for positioning the wiring harness. Studs are installed on the screw sleeves, and wire ties are installed on the studs to bundle the wiring harness, ensuring that the wiring harness is not easy to loosen or fall off when subjected to external forces such as vibration and impact. Further, the screw sleeves are evenly distributed circumferentially near the edge on the die-cast cover, ensuring that the wiring harness has a larger room for movement inside or outside the box cover, avoiding interference with other equipment or components. And the screw sleeves near the edge make it easier for the operator to approach and operate when installing, maintaining and replacing the wiring harness, conveniently fixing and arranging the wiring harness, avoiding the wiring harness being in a mess, and improving the overall aesthetics of the equipment.

[0038] Based on the above overall introduction to the box cover for high-voltage switchgear of the present invention, a more specific embodiment is provided below on the basis of the overall introduction:

[0039] This embodiment focuses on the detailed description of the connector mounting hole.

[0040] A connector mounting hole 7 is provided on the surrounding wall of the die-cast cover body for fixing the aviation plug. In this embodiment, two connector mounting holes 7 are arranged side by side between two rounded sections of the die-cast cover body, so that the operator can connect the two aviation plugs on one side of the equipment box. At this time, the connector mounting hole 7 is arranged between two adjacent rounded sections 2, which can reduce space occupation and make the connector mounting holes 7 more compact. In addition, the rounded section 2 can also provide a certain degree of protection. During transportation, handling or use, the rounded section 2 can serve as a buffer area to reduce direct impact and scratches on the connector mounting hole 7. At the same time, the space between adjacent rounded sections 2 is used to arrange the aviation plug, which makes it easy for the operator to quickly and accurately determine the position of the connector mounting hole 7, facilitate the connection of the aviation plug, and improve work efficiency.

[0041] Based on the above overall introduction to the box cover for high-voltage switchgear of the present invention, a more specific embodiment is provided below on the basis of the overall introduction:

[0042] This embodiment focuses on the detailed description of the reinforcing ribs.

[0043] The main cover plate's inner surface is die-cast with reinforcing ribs, symmetrically arranged around the center of the die-cast cover. This ensures a highly balanced and symmetrical structure, evenly supporting and resisting forces from all directions. This reduces the risk of deformation or damage caused by uneven forces. Furthermore, the symmetrical arrangement of the ribs simplifies the design and manufacturing process, reducing production costs and improving efficiency.

[0044] Specifically, a cross-shaped reinforcement rib structure 9 is provided on the main cover plate, which divides the main cover plate into four parts. In addition, a closed square reinforcement rib structure 10 and a dispersed reinforcement rib structure 8 extending from the four corner edges of the square reinforcement rib structure 10 toward the edge of the main cover plate are provided at the middle position of the main cover plate, which together constitute the reinforcement structure on the main cover plate. The closed square reinforcement rib structure 10 forms a closed reinforcement frame, which effectively enhances the overall rigidity and deformation resistance of the box cover. At the same time, the cross-shaped reinforcement rib structure 9 and the dispersed reinforcement rib structure 8 both extend to the edge of the main cover plate, further improving the strength and stability of the box cover edge, complementing each other with the square reinforcement rib structure 10, and jointly enhancing the structural strength of the box cover, thereby improving the durability and safety of the box cover.

[0045] During manufacturing, the die-cast cover for a high-voltage switchgear housing of this utility model simultaneously die-casts the cover connection holes 6, the wiring harness fixing structure 5, the operating shaft mounting hole 1, the connector mounting hole 7, and the reinforcing ribs, ensuring that each structure is accurately positioned, fully functional, and does not interfere with each other. Furthermore, after installation in the equipment housing, the housing exhibits significant advantages in structural strength, sealing, precision consistency, production efficiency, cost, appearance quality, maintainability, and service life, reliably ensuring the safe use of the high-voltage switchgear.

[0046] It should be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any appropriate manner without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the present invention will not further describe various possible combinations.

[0047] In addition, the various embodiments of the present invention may be arbitrarily combined, and as long as they do not violate the concept of the present invention, they should also be regarded as the contents disclosed by the present invention.

[0048] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. The scope of patent protection of the present invention shall be based on the claims. Any equivalent structural changes made using the description and drawings of the present invention shall also be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
