Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of current transformer technology, and more specifically, to a current transformer terminal protection device. Background Technology
[0002] A current transformer is an instrument that converts a large primary current into a small secondary current based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. It mainly consists of a closed iron core and windings. When current flows through the primary winding, an alternating magnetic flux is generated in the iron core. This magnetic flux induces an electromotive force in the secondary winding, thereby generating a secondary current.
[0003] Traditional current transformers are installed by directly connecting the wires to the terminals, leaving the terminals exposed and susceptible to dust, moisture, metal shavings, and other impurities that can affect the connection. Furthermore, when the connecting wires are pulled, they can easily detach from the terminals, thus affecting the performance. Therefore, a current transformer terminal protection device is proposed. Utility Model Content

Two first connecting plates are provided on the side of the current transformer near the mounting lugs, and a connecting post is inserted in the middle of the first connecting plate. A protective cover is provided on the side of the current transformer near the first connecting plates, and a threaded hole is formed on the side of the current transformer near the protective cover. Through the cooperation of the mounting lugs and the mounting grooves, the current transformer can be easily installed vertically in a preset position, and the wire to be tested can be installed and used by passing through the through hole in the middle of the current transformer. Through the cooperation of the first connecting plates and the connecting post, it is convenient to connect the external wire to the positive and negative poles of the current transformer. The protective cover covers and protects the first connecting plates, the connecting post, and the connected wires.
[0006] A second connecting plate is fixedly connected to one end of the protective cover. A fixing screw is inserted into the middle of the second connecting plate. The fixing screw corresponds to the threaded hole. A rotating screw head is fixedly connected to one end of the fixing screw. By rotating one end of the fixing screw into the threaded hole, the second connecting plate can be fixed to the top of the current transformer, thereby fixing the movable end of the protective cover and achieving the protective effect on the first connecting plate and the connecting column.
[0007] A fixing plate is fixedly connected to one side of the protective cover. A limiting groove is formed on the surface of the fixing plate, and a slot is formed at the bottom of the fixing plate. A threaded post is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing plate. A pressure plate and a nut are fitted in the middle of the threaded post. A pressure pad is fixedly connected to one side of the pressure plate. Through the cooperation of the limiting groove and the slot, the wire connected to the first connecting plate can be positioned and placed. By rotating the nut, the pressure plate is pressed, and the pressure pad is pressed against the wire located inside the limiting groove to achieve fixation and prevent the connection effect from being affected by external pulling of the wire.
[0008] Preferably, the cross-sectional shape of the mounting ear plate is set to "L" shape, and one side of the mounting groove is connected to the outside. The mounting ear plate and the mounting groove cooperate to facilitate installation and fixation.
[0009] Preferably, the protective cover corresponds to the first connecting plate, and the opposite sides of the two protective covers are rotatably connected to the wall of the current transformer. The protective cover can conveniently cover and protect the first connecting plate, improve the protection effect, and prevent external dust from adhering to the connecting column and the first connecting plate, thus affecting the electrical connection effect.
[0010] Preferably, one end of the fixing screw extends into the interior of the threaded hole and is threadedly connected to the inner cavity of the threaded hole. The screw is threadedly connected to the wall of the second connecting plate. By rotating the screw head, the fixing screw is controlled to insert into the interior of the threaded hole, which facilitates fixing the second connecting plate to one side of the current transformer and facilitates fixing the protective cover.
[0011] Preferably, the slot and the limiting slot are connected, and the slot corresponds to the middle of the first connecting plate. The limiting slot and the slot can limit the wires connected to the positive and negative poles of the current transformer.
[0012] Preferably, the pressure pad corresponds to the limiting groove, and the nut is located on the side of the threaded post away from the fixing plate. By rotating the nut, the pressure plate is squeezed, so that the pressure pad squeezes and fixes the wire inside the limiting groove, thus preventing external pulling of the wire from affecting the connection effect.
[0013] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. This utility model firstly covers and protects the first connecting plate with a protective cover, thereby protecting the first connecting plate, the connecting post, and the connected wires, preventing external dust from adhering to the connecting post and the first connecting plate and affecting the electrical connection effect. The connecting wires are limited by the slot and the limiting slot. By rotating the nut, the pressure plate is driven to squeeze and fix the pressure pad to the wires, preventing the wires from being pulled by the outside and affecting the electrical connection effect, thus improving the connection strength.
[0015] 2. This utility model also facilitates the installation of the current transformer in a preset position by using the mounting ear plate and mounting groove. By rotating the rotating screw head, the second connecting plate is inserted into the threaded hole to fix one end of the protective cover, which can improve the fixing strength of the protective cover. The connecting wire is limited by the set slot and limiting slot, which improves the stability of the connecting wire. This makes it convenient to squeeze and fix the connecting wire, making it convenient to use.
[0016] In summary, through the interaction of the above-mentioned multiple functions, the first connecting plate and connecting post on the current transformer can be covered and protected to prevent external dust from adhering to the connecting post and the first connecting plate, thus affecting the electrical connection effect. In addition, the connecting wires can be squeezed and fixed to prevent external pulling of the wires from affecting the electrical connection effect. Attached Figure Description

A protective cover 6 is provided on the side of the current transformer 1 near the first connecting plates 4, covering and protecting the first connecting plates 4, connecting posts 5, and connected wires. A threaded hole 10 is provided on the side of the current transformer 1 near the protective cover 6.
[0024] A second connecting plate 7 is fixedly connected to one end of the protective cover 6. A fixing screw 8 is inserted into the middle of the second connecting plate 7, and the fixing screw 8 corresponds to the threaded hole 10. A rotating screw head 9 is fixedly connected to one end of the fixing screw 8. A fixing plate 11 is fixedly connected to one side of the protective cover 6.

Through the cooperation of the limiting groove 12 and the slot 13, the wire connected to the first connecting plate 4 can be positioned and placed. By rotating the nut 17 to press the pressure plate 15, the pressure pad 16 presses the wire located inside the limiting groove 12 to achieve fixation and prevent the connection effect from being affected by external pulling of the wire.
[0025] As attached Figure 1-3As shown, the cross-sectional shape of the mounting ear plate 2 is set to "L" shape. One side of the mounting groove 3 is connected to the outside.
