[0004] The external current transformer can avoid the above problems, therefore GIS equipment usually chooses external current transformer. For example, the Chinese invention patent application for public disclosure no. CN118197741A discloses a kind of external current transformer and GIS using the current transformer, the external current transformer includes for installing current transformer coil current transformer cylinder, for being fixedly connected with bus cylinder flange, fixed in current transformer cylinder and flange outside and with current transformer cylinder and flange together enclose coil installation space outer protective cover, outer protective cover is provided with the operating opening for hand to enter to carry out wiring operation, operating opening can be detachably connected with sealing cover plate.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] The utility model will be described in further detail below in combination with embodiments.

[0040] To solve the problems in the prior art, the basic concept of the utility model is to additionally provide a sealing reinforcing element at the flange end of the outer protective cover to avoid local warping of the flange.

[0041] The specific embodiment 1 of the GIS provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0042] Referring to Figs. 1 and 2, Figure 1 and Figs. 3 and 4, Figure 2 the GIS comprises, in sequence along the axial direction, a bus cylinder 1, a flange plate 2, a mutual inductor cylinder 3, a connecting cylinder 4, an insulating plate 5, a coil 6, and a conductive rod 7.

[0043] The mutual inductor cylinder 3 comprises limiting end parts 32 and straight cylinder parts 31. The GIS in this embodiment is of the three-phase common box type, and therefore the straight cylinder parts 31 are three parallel ones. Each straight cylinder part 31 is provided with one conductive rod 7, and each straight cylinder part 31 is provided with a coil 6. The limiting end parts 32 are fixedly connected to the axial one ends of the three straight cylinder parts 31 by welding. In other embodiments, the limiting end parts 32 can be integrally cast with the straight cylinder parts 31 or connected by other fixed connection modes, which is the prior art and will not be described here.

[0044] The flange plate 2 is fixedly installed at the axial other end of the straight cylinder part 31 by bolts. The bus cylinder 1 is fixedly connected to the axial other side of the flange plate 2 away from the limiting end part 32 by bolts. The connecting cylinder 4 is connected to the axial other side of the limiting end part 32 away from the flange plate 2 in a flange structure. The insulating plate 5 is connected to the connecting cylinder 4 in a flange structure.

[0045] An outer protective cover 8 is arranged between the flange plate 2 and the limiting end part 32 for sealing and protecting the coils 6 and playing a role of waterproofing and dustproofing. Referring to Fig. 5, Figure 5 the outer protective cover 8 is formed by stamping and comprises a cover body 81 and a flange 82 inwardly folded at the axial one end of the cover body 81.

[0046] Referring to Figs. 6 and 7, Figure 1 and Figs. 8 and 9, Figure 3The limiting end 32 is provided with an annular insertion slot 9 on the axial end surface of the flange 2, and a sealing strip 10 is arranged in the insertion slot 9. The cover body 81 is inserted into the insertion slot 9 in an axial direction away from the flange 82, and the outer protective cover 8 is sealed with the limiting end 32 by axially pressing the sealing strip 10.

[0047] Referring to the drawings Figure 1 and the drawings Figure 4 The flange 82 is located on the side of the flange 2 axially away from the limiting end 32. The flange 2 is provided with a sealing element 11 on the axial end surface away from the limiting end 32. The sealing element 11 is specifically a rubber sealing ring, which is installed through a sealing groove 12 provided on the corresponding end surface of the flange 2. During assembly, the axial inner side surface of the flange 82 is in axial abutment with the sealing element 11, so that the sealing element 11 is compressed and deformed to maintain a pressing force and a tight fit with the flange 82 and the flange 2, so as to realize sealing between the flange 82 and the flange 2.

[0048] The flange 82 is provided with 24 installation holes 13 for fasteners in a circumferential direction. The flange 2 is provided with threaded holes 14 corresponding to the installation holes 13 on the axial end surface. The threaded holes 14 are located radially inward of the sealing groove 12. The fastener in the embodiment is a fastening bolt 15. The fastening bolt 15 passes through the installation hole 13 and cooperates with the threaded hole 14, so as to press the flange 82 on the end surface of the flange 2.

[0049] The axial outer side of the flange 82 is provided with a sealing reinforcing element 16. The sealing reinforcing element 16 is used to disperse the pressure applied by the fastening bolt 15 in the circumferential direction and then transmit the pressure to the flange 82. Referring to the drawings Figure 6 The sealing reinforcing element 16 is provided with eight arc-shaped elements with the same structure and size. The eight sealing reinforcing elements 16 are closely arranged in the circumferential direction of the flange 82. Each sealing reinforcing element 16 is provided with three connecting holes 17 corresponding to the installation holes 13 on the flange 82.

[0050] During assembly, the connecting holes 17 on the sealing reinforcing element 16 are aligned with the installation holes 13 on the flange 82. Then the fastening bolt 15 passes through the connecting holes 17 and then passes through the installation holes 13, and finally cooperates with the threaded holes 14. After the fastening bolt 15 is tightened, the flange 82 is pressed in the axial direction with the sealing element 11, and the end of the cover body 81 is pressed with the sealing strip 10.

[0051] The sealing reinforcement 16 can transmit the local compression force of the fastening bolt 15 to the flange 82 in the circumferential direction, especially at the part between the two mounting holes 13 on the flange 82, to prevent the local buckling of the flange 82 from affecting the sealing effect. Moreover, the plurality of sealing reinforcements 16 are used together, so that the size of the single sealing reinforcement 16 is small, facilitating the processing and manufacturing, and also facilitating the assembly.

[0052] In the embodiment, the axial thickness of the sealing reinforcement 16 is 5 mm, which has higher strength relative to the flange 82 with a wall thickness of 2.5 mm, and can provide reliable support. In other embodiments, the axial thickness of the sealing reinforcement 16 can be selected in the range of 3-6 mm according to actual needs, or the axial thickness of the sealing reinforcement 16 can be selected in the range of 1-3 times the axial thickness of the flange 82. The thickness of the sealing reinforcement 16 cannot be too large, otherwise it will affect the processing and manufacturing and be difficult to assemble in the limited space.

[0053] In the embodiment, the radial width of the sealing reinforcement 16 needs to cover the range of the sealing member 11 to ensure better dispersion of the pressure and effectively avoid the deformation of the flange 82, and also needs to avoid the radial protrusion of the sealing reinforcement 16 outside the outer protective cover 8 after assembly. Specifically, the distance from the connecting hole 17 on the sealing reinforcement 16 to the radial outer edge of the sealing reinforcement 16 is greater than or equal to the distance from the mounting hole 13 to the radial outer edge of the sealing member 11, and the curvature radius of the radial outer edge of the sealing reinforcement 16 is less than or equal to the outer edge radius of the flange 82.

[0054] In the embodiment, the sealing reinforcement 16 and the flange 82 are independent of each other, which facilitates disassembly. In other embodiments, the sealing reinforcement 16 can be fixedly connected with the flange 82, so that the alignment operation of the connecting hole 17 and the mounting hole 13 is not needed during assembly. The fixed connection between the sealing reinforcement 16 and the flange 82 can be welding or gluing, which is not described herein.

[0055] In the embodiment, the fastener is the fastening bolt 15, which is convenient to operate. In other embodiments, the fastener can be a screw rod, which can be fixed on the flange plate 2 in advance, and then the screw rod is inserted through the mounting hole 13 and the connecting hole 17, and a nut is assembled on the screw rod.

[0056] In the embodiment, the size and structure of the sealing reinforcement 16 are the same, which facilitates batch processing and manufacturing. In other embodiments, the size and structure of the sealing reinforcement 16 can be different, and the number of the connecting holes 17 on the sealing reinforcement 16 can also be different.

[0057] In order to facilitate processing and manufacturing, and also to enable the sealing reinforcement 16 to play a better force transmission effect, three connecting holes 17 are arranged on the single sealing reinforcement 16 in the embodiment. In order to play the effect, the number of the connecting holes 17 on the sealing reinforcement 16 can also be 2-4, and of course the number of the connecting holes 17 on the single sealing reinforcement 16 can also be one in other embodiments. The number of the sealing reinforcements 16 is related to the number of the connecting holes 17 thereon, and in the case that the structural sizes of the sealing reinforcements 16 are the same, the fewer the number of the sealing reinforcements 16 is, the more the number of the connecting holes 17 thereon is. In order to facilitate assembly, the number of the sealing reinforcements 16 is least two and at most the same as the number of the fastening bolts 15, that is, one connecting hole 17 is arranged on the single sealing reinforcement 16.

[0058] The specific embodiment 2 of the GIS provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0059] The embodiment is based on the embodiment 1, and the difference from the embodiment 1 is that only one sealing reinforcement is arranged in the embodiment and the sealing reinforcement is a circular ring, and the sealing reinforcement is coaxial with the outer protective cover. The number of the connecting holes on the sealing reinforcement is 24, and the sealing reinforcement has higher integrity and can realize better pressure dispersion and prevent the flange from warping.

[0060] The specific embodiment 3 of the GIS provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0061] The embodiment is given to the embodiment 1, and the difference from the embodiment 1 is that the insertion slot is arranged on the limiting end part in the embodiment, and the threaded hole matched with the fastening bolt is arranged on the flange, that is, the outer protective cover is arranged in the axial direction opposite to the embodiment 1.

[0062] The specific embodiment of the external current transformer provided by the utility model is as follows:

[0063] The external current transformer is the external current transformer in the embodiments 1 or 2 or 3 of the GIS described above, and details are not repeated here.

[0064] Finally, it needs to be explained that the above-mentioned is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and is not used for limiting the utility model, although the utility model is described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, and for the person skilled in the art, the technical scheme recorded in the foregoing embodiments can be modified without paying creative labor, or some technical features can be replaced equivalently.
