Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of support accessories technology, specifically a lightweight plate-type radiator support frame. Background Technology
[0002] A transformer is a device that uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to change alternating current voltage. Its main components include a primary coil, a secondary coil, and an iron core (magnetic core). Its main functions include voltage transformation, current transformation, impedance transformation, isolation, and voltage stabilization (magnetic saturation transformer). Transformers are fundamental equipment for power transmission and distribution, and are widely used in industry, agriculture, transportation, and urban communities.
[0003] With the development of power and the increasing demand for energy conservation, the natural cooling capacity of transformers is becoming increasingly larger. The natural cooling capacity of a transformer refers to the maximum on-load loss it can withstand under natural ventilation conditions, under the combined effects of leakage current and iron loss heat. This represents the maximum load that a transformer can safely and effectively operate without external cooling equipment (such as fans or cooling systems). To ensure the normal operation of transformers, it is necessary to accurately calculate and maintain their natural cooling capacity. The formula for calculating natural cooling capacity is: Natural Cooling Capacity = (Apparent Power - High-Temperature Corrosion Margin) / Natural Cooling Radius Square. Here, apparent power refers to the product of voltage and current in all transformer windings; high-temperature corrosion margin refers to a certain capacity reserved to ensure the transformer is not damaged in high-temperature environments; and natural cooling radius refers to the radius of the transformer tank for natural cooling.
[0004] Therefore, the use of plate-type radiators is increasing, and heavy-duty radiators with large gooseneck designs and high heat dissipation areas are also becoming more common in actual product applications. However, in actual product operation, it has been found that when there are many radiators, the oil manifold tends to tilt outwards. In some cases, the problem is so severe that the oil manifold cannot be installed, and even transformer oil leakage occurs. The key reason is the unreliability of the support system of the plate-type radiators. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the problems of instability and unreliability in the support systems for finned radiators in the prior art, this utility model provides a lightweight finned radiator support frame.
[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] A lightweight finned radiator support frame includes a housing fixing plate, on the side wall of which a support arm plate is welded; the support arm plate includes a horizontal support section and an inclined support section, the horizontal support section and the support section being combined to form a support arm plate with a bent structure; the upper end of the inclined support section is connected to the housing fixing plate, and the length of the horizontal support section is shorter than the length of the inclined support section; a finned fixing plate for the finned radiator is welded onto the horizontal support section.
[0008] The support arm plate has an overall bent structure, and the horizontal support section is connected to the lower end of the inclined support section. The length of the horizontal support section is shorter than the length of the inclined support section, which helps to concentrate the load applied by the finned radiator in the middle of the support arm plate and improve the support capacity of the support arm plate. The finned fixing plate helps to increase the contact area with the finned radiator to form stability. In summary, the stability and reliability of the support frame are improved.
[0009] A further improvement of this invention is that the angle between the inclined support section and the box fixing plate is 45°. This helps to reduce the stress at the weld between the inclined support section and the box fixing plate.
[0010] A further improvement of this invention is that the angle between the inclined support section and the horizontal support section is 135°, thereby increasing the upper limit of stress on the support arm plate.
[0011] A further improvement of this utility model is that the welding of the above-mentioned support arm plate to the box fixing plate and the piece fixing plate is a continuous right-angle weld.
[0012] A further improvement of this invention is that the weld height between the aforementioned support arm plate and the box fixing plate and the sheet fixing plate is 10mm. This ensures the welding quality at the weld joint and increases the overall stress limit of the support frame.
[0013] A further improvement of this utility model is that the aforementioned support arm plate is made of a steel plate with a thickness of 20mm.
[0014] A further improvement of this utility model is that a reinforcing plate extending horizontally connects the aforementioned box-body fixing plate and support arm plate, thereby strengthening the connection between the support arm plate and the box-body fixing plate.
[0015] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the support arm plate has an overall bent structure, and the horizontal support section is connected to the lower end of the inclined support section, and the length of the horizontal support section is shorter than the length of the inclined support section, which helps to concentrate the load applied by the finned radiator in the middle position of the support arm plate and improve the support capacity of the support arm plate; the finned fixing plate helps to increase the contact area with the finned radiator to form stability; in summary, the stability and reliability of the support frame are improved.

[0021] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the specific embodiments. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this patent, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this patent.
[0022] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, a lightweight plate-type radiator support frame includes a housing fixing plate 1, on which a support arm plate 2 is welded; the support arm plate 2 is a 20mm thick steel plate. The support arm plate 2 includes a horizontal support section 22 and an inclined support section 21, the horizontal support section 22 and the support section combined to form a support arm plate 2 with a bent structure; the angle between the inclined support section 21 and the housing fixing plate 1 is 45°, which helps reduce the stress at the weld between the inclined support section 21 and the housing fixing plate 1. The angle between the inclined support section 21 and the horizontal support section 22 is 135°, which increases the upper limit of stress on the support arm plate 2.
[0023] The upper end of the inclined support section 21 is connected to the housing fixing plate 1, and a reinforcing plate 11 extending horizontally is connected between the housing fixing plate 1 and the support arm plate 2. The connection strength between the auxiliary support arm plate 2 and the housing fixing plate 1 is enhanced. The length of the horizontal support section 22 is shorter than the length of the inclined support section 21; a finned fixing plate 3 for the finned radiator is welded onto the horizontal support section 22.
[0024] The support arm plate 2 is welded to the box body fixing plate 1 and the piece fixing plate 3 as a continuous right-angle weld. The weld height between the support arm plate 2 and the box body fixing plate 1 and the piece fixing plate 3 is 10mm. This ensures the welding quality at the weld joints and increases the overall stress limit of the support frame.
[0025] In summary, the operating principle of this device is as follows: when the load of the finned radiator is applied to the finned fixing plate 3, the maximum stress occurs at the middle position of the support arm plate 2, which effectively protects the weld between the box fixing plate 1 and the support arm plate 2, and avoids the failure of the support frame due to the quality of the weld, the strength defects between the welding materials and the base material.
[0026] Compared with traditional channel steel brackets, the welding area is reduced, the processing is simple and easy to mass-produce. A single support frame can support 4 sets of plate radiators weighing about 2 tons.
[0027] The lightweight finned radiator support frame described in this utility model features an integrally bent support arm plate. A horizontal support section is connected to the lower end of an inclined support section, and the length of the horizontal support section is shorter than the length of the inclined support section. This helps to concentrate the load applied by the finned radiator in the middle of the support arm plate, improving its support capacity. The finned fixing plate helps increase the contact area with the finned radiator, creating stability. In summary, this improves the stability and reliability of the support frame.
