[0025] Based on the background, in the current field of hydroelectric power generation, the design and manufacturing technology of large hydroelectric generators is constantly advancing to meet the demand for more efficient and stable power production. The electrical connection part of the generator is one of the key links to ensure its performance, especially the connection method of the main outgoing line and the center point outgoing line, which directly affects the current transmission efficiency and operation stability of the generator. Currently, in the structure of the steam turbine generator, the main outgoing line and the center point outgoing line are important channels for transmitting the electrical energy generated inside the generator to the external power grid. These outgoing lines are usually connected by copper bar joints to ensure stable transmission of electrical energy, and the flexible connection joint structure plays a role in reliably connecting these outgoing lines with the copper bar joint. The flexible connection joint structure is usually made of copper, which has good flexibility and adaptability, and can reduce the impact of vibration on line connection, so it has been widely used in large hydroelectric generators;
[0026] In actual use, the flexible connector lead-out structure abuts the copper busbar, typically secured with stainless steel bolts and nuts. However, due to the relatively small compression area between the nuts and bolts, uneven force can cause local deformation of the copper busbar and the flexible connector over long-term use. This deformation not only reduces the electrical contact area but can also increase contact resistance, leading to overheating. In severe cases, this can even affect the normal operation of the generator, reduce power generation efficiency, and even cause a shutdown.
[0027] In order to solve the above problems, the present application provides a generator lead connector fixing device to solve the problem of poor electrical contact between the copper busbar and the flexible connection connector caused by using bolts and nuts to fix the flexible connection connector and the copper busbar.
[0028] The following is combined with Figures 1-4 The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail.
[0029] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a generator lead connector fixing device includes:
[0030] A first pressing plate 1 , the first pressing plate 1 abutting against the flexible connection joint 11 ;
[0031] A second pressing plate 2, the second pressing plate 2 abuts against the copper busbar handle 21;
[0032] The fixing assembly 3 includes a bolt 31 and a nut 32. The bolt 31 passes through the first pressing plate 1, the flexible connection joint 11, the copper busbar handle 21 and the second pressing plate 2. The nut 32 is threadedly connected to the bolt 31.
[0033] An anti-loosening component 4 is provided between the second pressing plate 2 and the nut 32 to prevent the nut 32 from loosening.
[0034] Specifically, the flexible connector 11 abuts the copper busbar handle 21, the first pressure plate 1 abuts the side of the flexible connector 11 away from the copper busbar handle 21, and the second pressure plate 2 abuts the side of the copper busbar handle 21 away from the flexible connector 11, that is, the flexible connector 11 and the copper busbar handle 21 are located between the first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2. The first pressure plate 1 and the second pressure plate 2 are insulating plates, which can be made of the following insulating materials, such as polyvinyl chloride polymer material, polyethylene polymer material, and polytetrafluoroethylene polymer material. These insulating materials can effectively isolate current and ensure the safety of the electrical connection between the flexible connector 11 and the copper busbar handle 21.
[0035] In addition, the first pressing plate 1, the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar clamp 21 and the second pressing plate 2 are symmetrically provided with connecting holes, the bolt 31 passes through the connecting holes of the first pressing plate 1, the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar clamp 21 and the second pressing plate 2 in sequence, and the nut 32 is threadedly connected with the bolt 31 and abuts against the second pressing plate 2 to fix the first pressing plate 1, the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar clamp 21 and the second pressing plate 2.
[0036] In the embodiment, the first pressing plate 1 abuts against the soft connection joint 11, the second pressing plate 2 abuts against the copper bar clamp 21, the bolt 31 passes through the first pressing plate 1, the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar clamp 21 and the second pressing plate 2 and is connected with the nut 32 to fix the first pressing plate 1, the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar clamp 21 and the second pressing plate 2. Since the first pressing plate 1 and the second pressing plate 2 are located outside the soft connection joint 11 and the copper bar clamp 21, the pressing force of the bolt 31 and the nut 32 directly acts on the first pressing plate 1 and the second pressing plate 2, so that the first pressing plate 1 has a close surface contact with the soft connection joint 11 and the second pressing plate 2 has a close surface contact with the copper bar clamp 21, the force bearing area of the copper bar clamp 21 and the soft connection joint 11 is increased, local force deformation of the copper bar clamp 21 and the soft connection joint 11 is avoided, and the stability of the electrical connection between the copper bar clamp 21 and the soft connection joint 11 is increased. The anti-loosening assembly 4 is arranged between the second pressing plate 2 and the nut 32 to prevent loosening of the nut 32 and improve the long-term stability of the connection of the bolt 31 and the nut 32.
[0037] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the anti-loosening assembly 4 includes first limiting teeth 41 and second limiting teeth 42, the first limiting teeth 41 are arranged on the second pressing plate 2, the second limiting teeth 42 are arranged on the nut 32, and the first limiting teeth 41 and the second limiting teeth 42 are engaged.
[0038] Specifically, the first limiting teeth 41 are arranged on one side of the second pressing plate 2 close to the nut 32, the second limiting teeth 42 are arranged on one side of the nut 32 close to the second pressing plate 2, the first limiting teeth 41 are uniformly arranged along the connecting hole on the second pressing plate 2, and the second limiting teeth 42 are uniformly arranged along the circumference of the nut 32, so that the first limiting teeth 41 and the second limiting teeth 42 can be closely and uniformly engaged together. The uniformly engaged first limiting teeth 41 and the second limiting teeth 42 form a stable connection structure, which effectively prevents loosening of the nut 32 under vibration or external force.
[0039] In addition, the first limiting tooth 41 can be triangular or trapezoidal, with the triangle or trapezoid having an appropriate inclination angle to facilitate engagement with the second limiting tooth 42. The shape of the second limiting tooth 42 matches the shape of the first limiting tooth 41 to ensure tight engagement. The first limiting tooth 41 and the second limiting tooth 42 are made of a high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloy material to enhance the durability and wear resistance of the anti-loosening assembly 4.
[0040] In this embodiment, the first limiting tooth 41 is provided on the second pressure plate 2, and the second limiting tooth 42 is provided on the nut 32. The first limiting tooth 41 and the second limiting tooth 42 are engaged with each other, which can prevent the nut 32 from loosening under a long-term vibration environment, thereby improving the long-term fixation of the first pressure plate 1, the flexible connection joint 11, the copper busbar handle 21 and the second pressure plate 2.
[0041] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a spring 5 is provided on the top of the bolt 31, one end of the spring 5 abuts against the head of the bolt 31, and the other end abuts against the first pressure plate 1. The position of the bolt 31 is adjusted by compressing the spring 5 so that the first limiting tooth 41 and the second limiting tooth 42 engage.
[0042] In this embodiment, when the first limiting tooth 41 and the second limiting tooth 42 are difficult to engage with each other, the first limiting tooth 41 and the second limiting tooth 42 are just engaged with each other by compressing the remainder of the spring 5. The spring 5 provides a flexible connection adjustment mechanism for the engagement of the first limiting tooth 41 and the second limiting tooth 42, thereby increasing the engagement efficiency of the first limiting tooth 41 and the second limiting tooth 42.
[0043] In some embodiments, a side of the first pressing plate 1 away from the second pressing plate 2 is fixedly connected to a limiting enclosure 6 , and the spring 5 is located inside the limiting enclosure 6 .
[0044] Specifically, the shape and size of the limiting enclosure 6 are determined based on the shape and size of the spring 5 and the amount of compression during operation. This ensures that the spring 5 does not generate excessive friction or collision with the limiting enclosure 6 during compression, and also prevents the spring 5 from being restricted due to a small enclosure space. The limiting enclosure 6 is made of an alloy material with good wear resistance and rigidity to withstand the pressure and frictional wear generated by the compression of the spring 5.
[0045] In this embodiment, the limiting enclosure 6 provides a protective space for the spring 5 to prevent it from being displaced or damaged under the action of external force, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the spring 5 when the position of the bolt 31 is adjusted.
[0046] In some embodiments, the limiting enclosure 6 is engaged with the head of the bolt 31 to limit the rotation of the bolt 31 .
[0047] Specifically, the limiting fence 6 is hexagonal to fit the head of the bolt 31 and limit the rotation of the bolt 31.
[0048] In the embodiment, the limiting fence 6 forms a clamping relationship with the head of the bolt 31, thereby limiting the rotation of the bolt 31, improving the stability of the bolt 31, avoiding loosening of the bolt 31 in the external vibration environment, and thus improving the stability of the fixing device.
[0049] In some embodiments, the first pressing plate 1 is provided with limiting fences 7 on both sides, which abut against the side edges of the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar junction 21 and the second pressing plate 2, so that the side edges of the first pressing plate 1, the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar junction 21 and the second pressing plate 2 are aligned.
[0050] In the embodiment, the limiting fences 7 abut against the side edges of the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar junction 21 and the second pressing plate 2, forming a stable frame, so that the side edges of these components can be automatically aligned during assembly, thereby facilitating the alignment of the connecting holes on these components, and further facilitating the fixation of these components by the bolt 31 and the nut 32, improving the fixation efficiency. The limiting fences 7 also limit the movement of these components, which helps to prevent misalignment or loosening of the components due to vibration, impact or other external forces during subsequent operation or use.
[0051] In summary, the generator lead joint fixing device provided by the application includes a first pressing plate 1, a second pressing plate 2 and a fixing assembly 3. The fixing assembly 3 includes a bolt 31 and a nut 32. The first pressing plate 1 abuts against a soft connection joint 11, and the second pressing plate 2 abuts against a copper bar junction 21. The bolt 31 passes through the first pressing plate 1, the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar junction 21 and the second pressing plate 2 to be connected with the nut 32, so as to fix the first pressing plate 1, the soft connection joint 11, the copper bar junction 21 and the second pressing plate 2. Since the first pressing plate 1 and the second pressing plate 2 are located on the outer sides of the soft connection joint 11 and the copper bar junction 21, the pressing force of the bolt 31 and the nut 32 directly acts on the first pressing plate 1 and the second pressing plate 2, so that the first pressing plate 1 has a close surface contact with the soft connection joint 11, and the second pressing plate 2 has a close surface contact with the copper bar junction 21, thereby increasing the stress area of the copper bar junction 21 and the soft connection joint 11, avoiding local stress deformation of the copper bar junction 21 and the soft connection joint 11, increasing the stability of the electrical connection between the two, reducing the risk of overheating of the copper bar junction 21 and the soft connection joint 11 due to poor contact, reducing the probability of unit tripping due to transverse difference protection action, and thus improving the safety and operation efficiency of the entire power generation system.
[0052] The anti-loosening assembly 4 in the application comprises a first limiting tooth 41 and a second limiting tooth 42, the first limiting tooth 41 is arranged on the second pressing plate 2, the second limiting tooth 42 is arranged on the nut 32, the first limiting tooth 41 and the second limiting tooth 42 are engaged, the nut 32 can be prevented from loosening in a long-term vibration environment, thereby improving the long-term fixation of the first pressing plate 1, the flexible connection joint 11, the copper bar closing 21 and the second pressing plate 2.
