Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of measuring tools, in particular to a measuring tool ruler for installing power line clamps. Background Art

[0002] In power systems, power line clamps are key components that connect live parts of equipment to high-voltage conductors, making their stability and safety crucial. Power line clamps come in a wide variety of materials, including pure aluminum, copper-aluminum transition, and pure copper. They also offer terminal angles of 0 degrees, 30 degrees, and 90 degrees, and contact area in various sizes, such as 100x100, 100x80, and 80x80 (in mm). Currently, power line clamps are typically installed using punch-and-press technology, secured to the power equipment terminal block with screws.

[0003] Traditionally, when installing power line clamps, the hole spacing of the terminal blocks on the clamps needs to be adjusted according to the actual current and production equipment, and then holes are drilled. However, the drilling positions are usually measured manually with a handheld ruler, which is not only inefficient but also increases the risk of visual deviation and error. At the same time, manual measurement and positioning cannot guarantee the accuracy of the hole spacing, which can easily lead to problems such as poor contact, looseness, or even breakage of the power line clamps after installation, thereby affecting the stability and safety of the power system. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model discloses a measuring tool ruler for installing a power line clamp, which aims to solve the technical problem that when traditionally installing a power line clamp, the wiring socket hole spacing on the power line clamp needs to be adjusted according to the actual current size and production equipment, so as to drill holes therein. However, the drilling positions are usually measured manually with a handheld ruler, which is not only inefficient but also increases the risk of visual deviation and error. At the same time, manual measurement and positioning cannot ensure the accuracy of the hole spacing, which can easily lead to problems such as poor contact, looseness or even breakage of the power line clamp after installation, thereby affecting the stability and safety of the power system.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A measuring tool ruler for installing a power line clamp, comprising a power line clamp body, a mounting plate, and a second measuring ruler, wherein the first measuring ruler is provided on both outer walls of the mounting plate, and further comprising:

[0007] Limiting mechanism: located on the top of the mounting plate and the second measuring ruler;

[0008] Punching mechanism: located on one side of the limiting mechanism, the punching mechanism includes two third moving blocks, the outer walls on both sides of the third moving block are provided with a first fixed frame and a pointer, the third moving block is slidably connected to the inside of the limiting mechanism, the top outer wall of the third moving block is provided with a fixed block, the top outer wall of the fixed block is provided with a through hole, and notches are provided on both sides of the through hole, the top of the first fixing frame is provided with a top screw, the first fixing frame is fixed to the top of the power line clamp body through the top screw, and the pointer is used in conjunction with the first measuring ruler.

[0009] In this solution, the power line clamp body is placed at the desired installation location. The mounting plate is then aligned with the power line clamp body. A limiting mechanism limits the position of both sides of the power line clamp body, securing the mounting plate and limiting mechanism together. Based on the actual drilling spacing requirements, the third movable block moves within the installation opening, using a pointer and a first measuring ruler to accurately locate and measure the drilling installation position. The push screw then moves downward until it abuts the upper surface of the power line clamp body. Due to the tightening action of the push screw, a fixed state is formed between the first fixing frame and the power line clamp body, thereby securing the third movable block and preventing the third movable block and the upper fixing block from moving during the drilling process. A punching tool is then used to penetrate the through hole to drill holes in the surface of the power line clamp body. The notch provides sufficient space for the punching tool to enter and drill holes smoothly. Once all drilling is completed, the power line clamp body can be quickly installed. This device improves the accuracy and efficiency of power line clamp body installation, flexibly adapts to power line clamp bodies of different specifications and adjusts the hole spacing of their terminal blocks, reduces the risk of drilling errors, and improves user safety.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the limiting mechanism includes two first moving blocks, a second moving block, three mounting openings and six limiting openings, the two first moving blocks are slidably connected to the inner walls of two of the mounting openings, the second moving block is slidably connected to the inner wall of one of the mounting openings, the bottom outer walls of the first moving block and the second moving block are respectively provided with a first limiting frame and a second limiting frame, the top outer wall of the first limiting frame and the top outer wall of the second limiting frame are respectively connected by threads with two first threaded rods and two second threaded rods, one end of the first threaded rod and one end of the second threaded rod are both provided with a return spring, and one end of the two adjacent return springs is fixedly connected to a mounting pad.

[0011] When it is necessary to adjust the position of the first moving block, the first limit frame or fix the power line clamp body, the first moving block and the second moving block can be pushed to slide in the installation opening first. During the sliding process, the first limit frame and the second limit frame will move accordingly, thereby adjusting the relative position with the power line clamp body. When the required position is reached, the first threaded rod and the second threaded rod are rotated to make the first threaded rod, the second threaded rod and the return spring move downward until the mounting pad is close to the upper surface of the power line clamp body. At this time, the return spring is in a compressed state, and then the first threaded rod and the second threaded rod stop rotating, providing a stable holding force for the limit mechanism, so that the mounting plate and the second measuring ruler are close to the upper surface of the power line clamp body, which is convenient for drilling and installation.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the first moving block and the second moving block are both I-shaped structures, and both outer walls of the first moving block and both outer walls of the second moving block are provided with connecting plates, and the connecting plates pass through the inner wall of the limiting opening.

[0013] In this solution, the design of the first moving block, the second moving block and the connecting plate of the "I"-shaped structure makes it difficult for the moving block to be deformed or damaged when subjected to force and pressure, thereby maintaining the overall stability of the measuring tool ruler. The connecting plate is provided to enhance the connection strength between the moving block and the installation opening or the limit opening. The connecting plate passes through the inner wall of the limit opening. This design makes the moving block more stable when sliding and limits the movement of the moving block perpendicular to the sliding direction, thereby improving the overall stability.

[0014] As can be seen from the above, a measuring tool ruler for installing a power line clamp includes a power line clamp body, a mounting plate, and a second measuring ruler, wherein the first measuring ruler is provided on both outer walls of the mounting plate, and further includes:

[0015] Limiting mechanism: located on the top of the mounting plate and the second measuring ruler;

The measuring tool ruler for installing the power line clamp provided by the utility model has the technical effect of improving the accuracy and efficiency of the installation of the power line clamp body, flexibly adapting to power line clamp bodies of different specifications and adjusting the hole spacing of their wiring sockets, reducing the risk of punching errors, and improving the safety of use.

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present application generally described and marked in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the application for protection, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0023] The utility model discloses a measuring tool ruler for installing a power line clamp, which is mainly used in traditional installation of power line clamps, in which the hole spacing of the terminal sockets on the power line clamps needs to be adjusted according to the actual current size and production equipment, so as to drill holes therein. However, the position of the holes is usually measured by manual handheld ruler, which is not only inefficient but also increases the risk of visual deviation and error. At the same time, manual measurement and positioning cannot ensure the accuracy of the hole spacing, which can easily lead to problems such as poor contact, looseness or even breakage of the power line clamps after installation, thereby affecting the stability and safety of the power system.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 A measuring tool ruler for installing a power line clamp includes a power line clamp body 10, a mounting plate 1 and a second measuring ruler 3. The first measuring ruler 2 is provided on both outer walls of the mounting plate 1. The measuring tool ruler also includes:

[0025] Limiting mechanism: located on the top of the mounting plate 1 and the second measuring ruler 3;

[0026] Punching mechanism: Located on one side of the limiting mechanism, the punching mechanism includes two third moving blocks 15. The outer walls on both sides of the third moving block 15 are provided with a first fixed frame 8 and a pointer 17. The third moving block 15 is slidably connected to the inside of the limiting mechanism. The top outer wall of the third moving block 15 is provided with a fixed block 16. The top outer wall of the fixed block 16 is provided with a through hole, and notches are provided on both sides of the through hole. The top of the first fixing frame 8 is provided with a top screw 14. The first fixing frame 8 is fixed to the top of the power line clamp body 10 through the top screw 14. The pointer 17 is used in conjunction with the first measuring ruler 2.

[0027] Among them, the interior of the third movable block 15 is a hollow structure, and a connecting port is opened on the bottom outer wall of the third movable block 15. The connecting port is the same size as the through hole and has a corresponding position, which is convenient for guiding the punching tool to smoothly pass through the connecting port and punch the power line clamp body 10.

[0028] During specific use, the vertical point of the second measuring ruler 3 on the first measuring ruler 2 is the midpoint of the first measuring ruler 2, and scale values ​​are provided on both the first measuring ruler 2 and the second measuring ruler 3. The midpoint of the first measuring ruler 2 is set to zero scale, and the second measuring ruler 3 takes the zero scale of the first measuring ruler 2 as the origin. This design helps to reduce errors caused by position offset or scale misalignment of the second measuring ruler 3, and helps users understand the measurement results more intuitively, meeting various measurement needs.

[0029] The scale of the first measuring ruler 2 increases from the midpoint toward both sides, and the scale of the second measuring ruler 3 increases along the longitudinal direction of the ruler body.

[0030] Specifically, first place the power line clamp body 10 at the position where it needs to be installed, then align the mounting plate 1 with the power line clamp body 10, and limit the two sides of the power line clamp body 10 through the limiting mechanism, and be able to fix the mounting plate 1 and the limiting mechanism together, and then according to the actual punching spacing requirements, the third moving block 15 uses the cooperation of the pointer 17 and the first measuring ruler 2 during the movement of the mounting plate 1 to facilitate accurate positioning and measurement of the punching installation position, and then the top screw 14 moves downward until it abuts the upper surface of the power line clamp body 10. Due to the tightening effect of the top screw 14, the first fixing frame 8 and the power line clamp body 10 are fixed. A fixed state is formed between the holes, thereby fixing the third movable block 15 and preventing the third movable block 15 and the fixed block 16 above it from moving during the punching process. Then, a punching tool is used to penetrate the through hole to punch holes on the surface of the power line clamp body 10. The provided notch provides sufficient space for the punching tool to enter and punch holes smoothly. After all the punching is completed, the power line clamp body 10 can be quickly installed. The device improves the accuracy and efficiency of the installation of the power line clamp body 10, flexibly adapts to different specifications of the power line clamp body 10 and adjusts the hole spacing of its terminal block, reduces the risk of drilling errors, and improves the safety of use.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment, the limiting mechanism includes two first moving blocks 9, a second moving block 11, three mounting openings 6 and six limiting openings 7, the two first moving blocks 9 are slidably connected to the inner walls of two of the mounting openings 6, and the second moving block 11 is slidably connected to the inner wall of one of the mounting openings 6, the bottom outer walls of the first moving block 9 and the second moving block 11 are respectively provided with a first limiting frame 4 and a second limiting frame 13, the top outer wall of the first limiting frame 4 and the top outer wall of the second limiting frame 13 are respectively connected to two first threaded rods 5 and two second threaded rods 12 by threads, one end of the first threaded rod 5 and one end of the second threaded rod 12 are both provided with a return spring 19, and one end of the two adjacent return springs 19 is fixedly connected to a mounting pad 20.

[0032] Among them, the first limit frame 4 and the second limit frame 13 are both "L"-shaped structures. The vertical section of the "L"-shaped structure is mainly used to abut the side of the power line clamp body 10 to provide support and limitation in the vertical direction, while the horizontal section is used to contact the mounting plate 1 to form a horizontal limit and stabilization effect.

[0033] Specifically, when it is necessary to adjust the position of the first moving block 9, the first limit frame 4 or fix the power line clamp body 10, the first moving block 9 and the second moving block 11 can be pushed to slide in the installation opening 6 first. During the sliding process, the first limit frame 4 and the second limit frame 13 will move accordingly, thereby adjusting the relative position with the power line clamp body 10. When the required position is reached, the first threaded rod 5 and the second threaded rod 12 are rotated respectively, so that the first threaded rod 5, the second threaded rod 12 and the return spring 19 move downward until the mounting pad 20 is close to the upper surface of the power line clamp body 10. At this time, the return spring 19 is in a compressed state, and then the first threaded rod 5 and the second threaded rod 12 stop rotating, providing a stable holding force for the limiting mechanism, so that the mounting plate 1 and the second measuring ruler 3 are close to the upper surface of the power line clamp body 10, which is convenient for drilling and installation.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 In a preferred embodiment, the first moving block 9 and the second moving block 11 are both "I"-shaped structures, and the outer walls on both sides of the first moving block 9 and the outer walls on both sides of the second moving block 11 are provided with connecting plates 18, and the connecting plates 18 pass through the inner wall of the limit opening 7. The design of the first moving block 9, the second moving block 11 and the connecting plates 18 in the "I"-shaped structure makes it difficult for the moving block to be deformed or damaged when subjected to force and pressure, thereby maintaining the overall stability of the measuring tool ruler. The connecting plates 18 are provided to enhance the connection strength between the moving block and the installation opening 6 or the limit opening 7. The connecting plates 18 pass through the inner wall of the limit opening 7. This design makes the moving block more stable when sliding and limits the movement of the moving block in the direction perpendicular to the sliding direction, thereby improving the overall stability.

[0035] Working principle: When in use, first place the power line clamp body 10 at the position where it needs to be installed, then align the mounting plate 1 with the power line clamp body 10, and limit the two sides of the power line clamp body 10 through the limiting mechanism, and be able to fix the mounting plate 1 and the limiting mechanism together, and then according to the actual drilling spacing requirements, the third movable block 15 moves in the installation opening 6, and the pointer 17 cooperates with the first measuring ruler 2 to facilitate accurate drilling installation position positioning and measurement, and then the top screw 14 moves downward until it abuts against the upper surface of the power line clamp body 10. Due to the tightening effect of the top screw 14, a fixed state is formed between the first fixing frame 8 and the power line clamp body 10, thereby fixing the third movable block 15 and preventing the third movable block 15 and the fixed block 16 above it from moving during the drilling process, and then use a punching tool to penetrate the through hole to drill a hole on the surface of the power line clamp body 10. The provided notch provides sufficient space for the punching tool to enter and drill holes smoothly. After all drilling is completed, the power line clamp body 10 can be quickly installed.

The replacements described may be partial structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Any equivalent replacements or modifications based on the technical solution and the concept of the present invention shall be covered by the scope of protection of the present invention.
