In order to effectively meet this challenge, lightning protection devices such as lightning rods, lightning conductors, lightning nets, lightning strips and lightning arresters are widely used in various occasions. Especially in power engineering buildings, in order to ensure their safety in thunderstorms, it is often necessary to install grounded lightning protection devices. Existing lightning protection grounding devices for power engineering buildings may be unstable when connected to the power engineering building when the device is installed on the power engineering building, so that the device may fall during use.
[0003] In the prior art, a Chinese patent with publication number CN 214313562 U has been proposed to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0035] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments:
[0036] Example 1
[0037] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the utility model provides an integrated lightning protection and grounding device for power engineering, including an outer rod assembly 5, an inner rod 4, and a mounting plate 7; the outer rod assembly 5 includes: an outer rod 505, a down conductor 1 501, a down conductor 2 502, and a limit block 503; the down conductor 1 501 is tooth-connected with the down conductor 2 502, one side of the limit block 503 abuts against the down conductor 2 502, and the other side is clamped with the outer rod 505; the outer rod 505 is provided with a tooth groove that engages with the down conductor 1 501; the outer rod 505 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 7, and the down conductor 2 502 abuts against the mounting plate 7; the inner rod 4 is fixedly connected to the down conductor 1 501.
[0038] In this embodiment, if the down conductor needs to be disassembled, first remove the limit block 503 from the outer rod 505. At this time, the down conductor 2 502 is not blocked by the limit block 503 and its own circumference is smaller than the outer rod 505, so the tooth connection with the down conductor 1 501 is no longer firm, and the down conductor 2 502 tilts to the other side of the outer rod 505. At this time, the down conductor 2 502 can be taken out of the outer rod 505, and then the down conductor 1 501 can be rotated to the side without the tooth groove. At this time, the down conductor 1 501 can be taken out of the outer rod 505.
[0039] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, preferably, the down conductor 1 501 , the down conductor 2 502 and the limit block 503 form a cylinder with a notch, and the outer diameter of the cylinder is the same as the inner diameter of the outer rod 505 .
[0040] In this embodiment, the outer diameter of the cylinder is identical to the inner diameter of the outer rod 505, allowing the retaining ring 504 to engage them. Each component can be handled individually, reducing the difficulty and cost of overall transportation while also facilitating rapid deployment in different locations or scenarios. Furthermore, this modular design promotes standardized production of accessories, making the production process more efficient and quality control more stringent. During assembly, the seamless connection between components not only simplifies installation steps but also ensures the overall performance and stability of the device.
[0041] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, preferably, the outer rod assembly 5 further includes a snap ring 504, which is clamped in the outer rod 505 and abuts against the second down conductor 502 and the limit block 503 respectively.
[0042] In this embodiment, the retaining ring 504, through the synergistic effect of its various parts, the retaining ring 504, the outer rod 505, the down conductor 1 501, the down conductor 2 502, and the limit block 503 together constitute a stable structural system, ensuring that the outer rod assembly 5 can maintain the correct position and shape during use.
[0043] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, preferably, it also includes: a grounding body 6, one side of the grounding body 6 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 7, and the other side is fixedly connected to the ground, and the lower end of the grounding body 6 is in a cone shape.
[0044] In this embodiment, the grounding body 6 is tapered to facilitate the staff to bury the grounding body 6 underground, so that it is in direct contact with the soil and achieves electrical connection. The grounding body 6 is moderately anti-corrosion, generally by applying an anti-corrosion layer. Anti-corrosion materials such as alloy steel, galvanized steel and epoxy resin coating can also be used to separate the metal from corrosive substances in the soil and air, thereby reducing the corrosion rate.
[0045] like Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, in this embodiment, preferably, it also includes: a lightning rod 1, an insulating member 2, and an inner rod 4; the lightning rod 1 is fixedly connected to the insulating member 2; the inner rod 4 is fixedly connected to the insulating member 2, and the lightning rod 1 and the grounding body 6 are connected through a down conductor.
[0046] In this embodiment, the lightning rod 1 is usually made of metal and has a pointed shape. It is installed at a high place on a building. When lightning approaches, the lightning rod 1 can attract the lightning and guide it underground; the outer rod 505 and the inner rod 4 are both made of insulating materials, which can prevent electric shock accidents when someone approaches or touches the outer rod during thunderstorms.
[0047] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, preferably, a plurality of pull posts 3 are further included. The pull posts 3 are circular and evenly distributed on the outside of the insulating member 2. The pull posts 3 are all screwed onto the outside of the insulating member 2 by bolts.
[0048] In this embodiment, the four pull rings primarily serve as external attachment points for securely tying ropes. Pull rings become crucial when the device is designed to be larger, especially when its height is significantly increased. Tightening the ropes through the pull rings not only helps stabilize the overall position of the device, preventing it from swaying or tilting due to its large size, but also significantly enhances its stability and safety. This design allows operators to easily position and adjust the device, ensuring its stability and reliability during operation.
[0049] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, preferably, screw holes are provided on the mounting plate 7 , and the fastening bolts 8 are screwed to the mounting plate 7 .
[0050] In this embodiment, a series of precision screw holes are meticulously laid out on the mounting plate 7. These holes are designed to be both stable and rational, ensuring precise connection with the fastening bolts 8. The fastening bolts 8, through their fine threads, tightly engage the screw holes on the mounting plate 7, forming an indestructible connection. This enhances the overall stability of the lightning arrester, effectively resisting the adverse effects of wind, rain, and vibration, and adapting to different environments and installation requirements. Furthermore, this fastening method also facilitates subsequent maintenance and repair work, providing a solid guarantee for the safe operation of the lightning arrester.
[0051] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, preferably, a plurality of baffles 9 are included, and the baffles 9 are circular and evenly distributed on the outside of the outer rod 505.
[0052] In this embodiment, the baffle 9 can significantly increase the stability of the lightning protection device. This enhanced stability not only ensures the normal operation of the lightning protection device under adverse weather conditions, but also extends the service life of the lightning protection device and reduces the frequency of repair or replacement due to damage.
[0053] The following is a detailed description of the working principle of the integrated lightning protection and grounding device for power engineering. If the down conductor needs to be installed, first put the down conductor 1 501 into the outer rod 505, rotate the down conductor 1 501 so that the side with the tooth groove of the down conductor 1 501 matches the outer rod 505, then put the down conductor 2 502 into the outer rod 505, and the tooth grooves between the down conductor 1 501 and the down conductor 2 502 are also matched, and then put the limit block 503 into the outer rod 505 to abut against the down conductor 2 502; if the down conductor needs to be disassembled, first remove the limit block 503 from the outer rod 505. The down conductor 2 502 is taken out from the outer rod 505. At this time, the down conductor 2 502 has no limit block 503 to resist and its own circumference is smaller than the outer rod 505, so the tooth connection with the down conductor 1 501 is no longer firm. The down conductor 2 502 tilts to the other side of the outer rod 505. At this time, the down conductor 2 502 can be taken out from the outer rod 505, and then the down conductor 1 501 can be rotated to the side without the tooth groove. At this time, the down conductor 1 501 can be taken out from the outer rod 505. If it is necessary to change the height, just change the height of the meshing of the down conductor 2 502 and the down conductor 1 501.
[0054] The above generally describes the present invention in detail. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that modifications or improvements may be made to the present invention. Therefore, modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
