[0025] Reference Figure 1 andFigure 2 As shown in the utility model, the oil-immersed transformer comprises a core, a box body 100 and a box cover 200. The core is usually shaped as a three-dimensional triangle. The box body 100 is shaped as a hexagon corresponding to the core. The hexagonal box body 100 comprises a bottom plate 120 and six first side plates 130. An installation cavity 110 with an open top is formed between the bottom plate 120 and the six first side plates 130. The box cover 200 is sealingly connected to the box body 100 to close the opening of the installation cavity 110. The box cover 200 is provided with a plurality of connecting members such as high and low voltage bushings electrically connected to the core. The box body 100 is provided with fin-shaped radiators 140 at intervals around the periphery. The box cover 200 is provided with high voltage bushings and tap changers.
[0026] Referring to Figure 3 As shown in the utility model, the core is accommodated in the installation cavity 110, and the installation cavity 110 is filled with transformer oil for immersing the core. An air layer 210 is formed between the liquid surface of the transformer oil and the box cover 200. The installation cavity 110 is provided with a baffle assembly 300. The baffle assembly 300 comprises a second side plate 330 and a top plate 340. In the vertical direction, the height of the second side plate 330 is higher than the height of the transformer oil. The second side plate 330 and the top plate 340 are both flat plate members and are perpendicular to each other. The second side plate 330 is located on one side of the core. In the vertical direction, the two ends of the second side plate 330 are connected to the bottom plate 120 and the top plate 340, respectively. The second side plate 330, the bottom plate 120, the top plate 340 and at least one first side plate 130 form a breathing chamber 310.
[0027] Specifically, under the premise of reserving sufficient installation space for the core, the two sides of the second side plate 330 can be connected to two adjacent first side plates 130, respectively. At this time, the cross section of the breathing chamber 310 is triangular. The two sides of the second side plate 330 can also be connected to two spaced first side plates 130, respectively. The second side plate 330, the bottom plate 120, the top plate 340 and the two first side plates 130 form the breathing chamber 310. At this time, the cross section of the breathing chamber 310 is quadrangular. The two sides of the second side plate 330 can also be bent or welded with ear plates to fill the gap between the second side plate 330 and the first side plate 130. At this time, the second side plate 330, the bottom plate 120, the top plate 340 and one first side plate 130 can form the breathing chamber 310. The shape of the breathing chamber is related to the shape of the second side plate 330, which is not limited here.
[0028] By arranging the second side plate 330 and the top plate 340, the second side plate 330 and the top plate 340 are simple in structure and convenient to design, which can effectively simplify the structure of the baffle assembly 300 and facilitate the processing and forming of the breathing chamber 310.
[0029] Referring to Figure 3As shown, it can be understood that the baffle assembly 300 is provided with a breathing passage 320 located above the transformer oil, wherein the breathing passage 320 comprises a breathing pipe 321, the breathing passage 320 is arranged on the top plate 340, the breathing pipe 321 is arranged in a vertical direction and protrudes from the surface of the top plate 340, and the breathing chamber 310 is in communication with the air layer 210 through the breathing passage 320.
[0030] Since the top plate 340 is higher than the liquid level of the transformer oil, the height difference between the transformer oil and the breathing passage 320 can be increased by arranging the breathing pipe 321 without affecting the communication between the air layer 210 and the breathing chamber 310, and since the inner diameter of the breathing pipe 321 is small, even if the transformer oil flows to the top plate 340 during transportation, the vertically upward breathing pipe 321 can limit the flow of the transformer oil to the breathing chamber 310, keeping the breathing chamber 310 dry and clean, and effectively improving the structural rationality of the breathing passage 320.
[0031] Further, the breathing passage 320 further comprises an oil prevention device, which can be a semi-permeable membrane with a specific pore size or similar oil-gas separation device, as long as it can ensure that air can pass through but transformer oil cannot pass through. Herein, it will not be repeated. The device is installed at the opening of the breathing pipe 321 or in the breathing pipe 321, and the oil prevention device is configured to allow air to pass through but not allow transformer oil to pass through, so that the oil prevention device can limit the flow of transformer oil through the breathing passage 320 to the breathing chamber 310. During the operation of the transformer, part of the transformer oil may be gasified and mixed into the air layer 210, by arranging the oil prevention device, the transformer oil molecules can be blocked, so as to avoid the normal transformer oil or the gasified transformer oil entering the breathing chamber 310 through the breathing pipe 321, effectively improving the filtering effect of the breathing passage 320.
[0032] Further, the second side plate 330, the top plate 340 and the first side plate 130 are fixedly connected by seamless welding, that is, the connection between the second side plate 330 and the top plate 340, the connection between the second side plate 330 and the bottom plate 120, and the connection between the top plate 340 and the second side plate 330 are all fixedly connected by seamless welding. By welding the second side plate 330, the top plate 340 and the first side plate 130 together, the structural stability and air tightness of the breathing chamber 310 are effectively improved, and the service life of the transformer is prolonged.
[0033] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, it can be understood that the breathing chamber 310 can be provided individually in the installation cavity 110 to save the production cost of the transformer; the breathing chamber 310 can also be provided in plurality, and when the breathing chamber 310 is provided in plurality, the plurality of breathing chambers 310 are staggered with the plurality of heat dissipation members outside the tank 100 along the circumference of the tank 100. The breathing chamber 310 is provided in plurality, even if the volume of the installation cavity 110 of the transformer is large, that is, the volume change of the transformer oil is large when the temperature changes, the plurality of breathing chambers 310 can also receive or release the air in the air layer 210 from the four sides of the core, avoiding the overpressure problem in the installation cavity 110, and effectively improving the operation stability of the transformer. In addition, the staggered arrangement of the breathing chamber 310 and the heat dissipation member outside the tank 100 can also avoid the interference of the breathing chamber 310 with the heat exchange between the transformer oil and the heat dissipation fins arranged outside the long side plate 132, and ensure the stable use of the transformer.
[0034] It can be understood that when the temperature around the transformer rises, the volume of the transformer oil increases and squeezes the air layer 210, and the squeezed air can enter the breathing chamber 310 through the breathing channel 320; when the temperature around the transformer decreases, the volume of the transformer oil decreases, and the air in the breathing chamber 310 returns to the air layer 210 above the transformer oil through the breathing channel 320. By providing the breathing chamber 310, the breathing chamber 310 is connected with the air layer 210 through the breathing channel 320, which can indirectly increase the overall volume of the air layer 210, even if the volume of the installation cavity 110 inside the transformer is different, the air layer 210 with the same height and the bottom height can be arranged, so that transformers with different volumes can use the same specification of pressure sleeve pipes and tap switches and other components, and the traditional oil pillow, breather and other components are saved, effectively reducing the management cost of the transformer; at the same time, the high pressure sleeve pipe and the tap switch and other components do not need to be customized to be higher, which ensures the mechanical strength of such components and improves the safety of the transformer during transportation. In addition, the air layer 210 can reduce the height of the original air layer 210 in the tank 100, thereby reducing the overall height of the transformer, so that the transformer can be applied to low space.
[0035] Referring to Figure 2 As shown, it needs to be supplemented that for the hexagonal tank 100, the six first side plates 130 are usually composed of three short side plates 131 with shorter width and three long side plates 132 with longer width, and the short side plates 131 with shorter length and the long side plates 132 with shorter length are staggered, at this time, the tank 100 is approximately an equilateral triangle in shape, thereby adapting to the three-dimensional core. The second side plate 330 is parallel to one of the short side plates 131, and the two sides of the second side plate 330 are connected with the long side plates 132 on the two sides of the short side plate 130 parallel to the second side plate 330.
[0036] The second side plate 330 and the shorter short side plate 131 are arranged in parallel, so that the breathing chamber 310 is located at the short side of the box body 100, the width of the second side plate 330 is limited between the short side plate 131 and the long side plate 132, under the premise that the breathing chamber 310 can accommodate enough air, the breathing chamber 310 avoids occupying too much space of the installation cavity 110 to limit the volume of the core, affects the installation of the core, and effectively improves the structural rationality of the transformer.
[0037] Referring to Figure 3 As shown in the figure, it can be understood that the breathing pipe 321 can be arranged separately to reduce the processing cost, and the breathing pipe 321 can also be provided with a plurality of breathing pipes 321, and the plurality of breathing pipes 321 are usually arranged on the top plate 340, and the oil-proof device and the breathing pipe 321 are arranged one by one. The breathing pipe 321 is provided as a plurality of breathing pipes 321, and each breathing pipe 321 is provided with an oil-proof device capable of filtering transformer oil, so that the channel area between the breathing chamber 310 and the air layer 210 is increased under the premise that the breathing chamber 310 is dry and clean, the airflow in the air layer 210 can quickly and in large quantities enter the air chamber, the transformer can adapt to the use environment with rapid temperature change, and the application range of the transformer is expanded.
[0038] The above describes the embodiments of the utility model in detail in combination with the drawings, but the utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge range possessed by the ordinary skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the utility model.
