TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to cable accessory detection technical field, concretely is a kind of temperature measuring ring for cable accessory. BACKGROUND
[0002] Power accessories play an important role in power systems. They work closely with power equipment to ensure the stable operation of power systems. These accessories include, but are not limited to, cables, transformers, switchgear, arresters, capacitors, circuit breakers, resistors, power isolators, and various fittings used to connect, secure, and protect power equipment and cables. After a long period of use, power accessories may fail, causing their temperature to rise. To ensure the normal operation of the power system, it is necessary to monitor the temperature of the power accessories.
[0003] Referring to the patent with application number CN202220572537.5, the patent discloses an elastic temperature measuring ring. In its technical solution, the ring body used to connect the temperature sensor and the power accessory is made of rubber. Compared with metal, rubber is more susceptible to environmental influences and is prone to aging. For example, in a high-temperature environment, rubber molecules move more vigorously, accelerating the aging process. Under the irradiation of ultraviolet light, rubber molecules undergo photochemical reactions, causing a decline in their performance. After the rubber that constitutes the ring body ages, the elasticity of the ring body weakens, which causes the connection between the temperature measuring end of the temperature sensor and the power accessory to become loose, reducing the thermal conductivity between them and ultimately affecting the accuracy and timeliness of the temperature measurement results.
[0004] In addition, when certain specific faults occur in the cable accessory, such as a broken sheath at a certain point on the cable, only the broken sheath point will exhibit obvious heating. However, in the technical solution of the above-mentioned patent, heat transfer mainly relies on the heat-conducting piece that is in close contact with the cable. Given the poor thermal conductivity of the cable sheath, if the broken sheath point and the heat-conducting piece are not aligned (i.e., staggered) in the circumferential direction, the heat generated by the broken sheath point will be difficult to transfer to the temperature sensor in a timely and effective manner through the heat-conducting piece. SUMMARY
[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the utility model provides a temperature measuring ring for cable accessory, which has good connection stability with power accessories, is not prone to becoming loose, and can timely and effectively transfer heat to the temperature sensor.
[0006] The utility model adopts the following technical solutions.
[0007] The utility model relates to a temperature measuring ring for cable accessory, which comprises a ring-shaped framework, a metal bushing detachably sleeved in the framework, and a temperature sensor embedded on the framework and in thermal conductive connection with the metal bushing.
[0008] Further, the metal bushing comprises a ring-shaped sleeve body, and a plurality of arc-shaped elastic pieces are uniformly distributed on the inner side wall of the sleeve body along the circumference direction, and the long edges of the elastic pieces extend along the circumference direction of the sleeve body and form the elastic structures.
[0009] Further, the metal bushing is in a wave shape that undulates along the radial direction, and the wave crests on the inner side form the elastic structures.
[0010] Further, a positioning hole is formed on the sleeve body, and a positioning member is arranged on the inner side wall of the framework and is in clamping connection with the positioning hole.
[0011] Further, the positioning member penetrates the framework along the radial direction and is in threaded connection with the framework.
[0012] Further, a ring-shaped limiting groove is formed on the inner side wall of the framework, and the metal bushing is located in the limiting groove.
[0013] Further, the framework comprises a ring-shaped frame body, a limiting shoulder extending towards the inner side is arranged at the first end of the frame body, a ring-shaped limiting cover is detachably connected to the second end of the frame body, and the limiting groove is formed between the limiting shoulder and the limiting cover.
[0014] Further, the temperature sensor comprises a protective shell, an antenna layer and an RFID electronic temperature measuring chip are arranged in the protective shell and are in electrical connection with each other, a medium body is filled in the protective shell, the RFID electronic temperature measuring chip is connected with an insulated heat conduction block, the heat conduction block extends to the outer side of the protective shell and is in thermal conductive connection with the metal bushing.
[0015] Further, the heat conduction block is connected with a heat conduction piece, and the heat conduction piece is wound into a ring shape.
[0016] The utility model has the advantages that:
[0017] In the utility model, the inner side wall of metal bushing is evenly distributed with multiple protruding elastic structures in the circumferential direction. In the installation state, the temperature measuring part of the power accessory passes through the inside of the metal bushing, and the elastic structures on the inner side wall of the metal bushing abut against the part of the power accessory, thereby realizing the stable installation of the utility model. In the operation process, the heat generated by the power accessory is sequentially transmitted to the temperature sensor through the elastic structures and the metal accessory, thereby realizing the detection of the temperature of the power accessory. Compared with the traditional rubber ring, the metal bushing of the utility model is not easy to be affected by the external environment and cause aging phenomenon, and the connection stability between the metal bushing and the power accessory is good, and the metal bushing is not easy to become loose. In addition, in view of the fact that multiple elastic structures abut against the outer side wall of the temperature measuring part of the power accessory, the temperature of the temperature measuring part of the cable accessory can be transmitted in a large range in the circumferential direction, thereby timely and effectively transmitting the heat to the temperature sensor.

The elastic structure 201 on the inner wall of the metal bushing 2 abuts against this part of the electrical accessory, thereby securely mounting the metal bushing 2 onto the electrical accessory.

[0037] The metal bushing 2 includes an annular sleeve 21. Multiple arc-shaped elastic sheets 22 are evenly distributed circumferentially along the inner wall of the sleeve 21. The long sides of the elastic sheets 22 extend circumferentially along the sleeve 21, forming an elastic structure 201. In this embodiment, the elastic sheets 22 are welded to the sleeve 21. Of course, in other embodiments, the elastic sheets 22 can also be directly punched out from the sleeve 21.
[0038] The sleeve 21 has a positioning hole 211, and the inner sidewall of the frame 1 has a positioning element 4 that engages with the positioning hole 211. In the installed state, the positioning element 4 extends into the positioning hole 211, thereby connecting the frame 1 and the metal bushing 2 together and preventing relative displacement between the two.

[0041] In the installed state, the heat-conducting block 35 abuts against the sleeve body 21 of the metal bushing 2, and the heat generated by the power accessory is transmitted to the RFID electronic temperature measuring chip 33 through the elastic sheet 22, the sleeve body 21 and the heat-conducting block 35 in turn. In this embodiment, the heat-conducting block 35 is made of ceramic. The insulated heat-conducting block 35 can insulate the RFID electronic temperature measuring chip 33 from the power accessory, preventing the RFID electronic temperature measuring chip 33 from being punctured by the current on the power accessory.
