[0029] Referring to the drawings Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the drawings, the embodiment of the present application provides a discharge counter for lightning arrester, which comprises a counter main body 1 and a foldable mounting leg 2 for mounting the counter on an insulating support of a fixed lightning arrester. The counter main body 1 mainly comprises an aluminum-magnesium alloy shell, a sealing rubber pad, a base, a non-linear resistance sheet, a rectifier, a capacitor, an electromagnetic counter, a protection circuit, etc. The discharge of the lightning arrester is sampled through the non-linear resistance sheet, and is indicated by the electromagnetic counter after processing. The counter is designed as a large panel pointer type, and the counting indication is clear and eye-catching, and is strong against errors. The shell adopts an aluminum-magnesium alloy die casting process and a tempered glass observation port, which overcomes the defects of traditional glass shell similar products that are easy to be damaged. The die-cast aluminum alloy is not easy to be oxidized after plastic spraying, and has high mechanical strength, which overcomes the defects of original similar cast iron shell products that are easy to rust, and also overcomes the defects of similar stainless steel shell products that are easy to be damaged and deformed by external force, and has a long service life.
[0030] As shown in the drawings Figures 3 to 5 The mounting leg 2 comprises a first leg plate 201 and a second leg plate 202. The first leg plate 201 is provided with a first mounting hole 214, and the second leg plate 202 is provided with a second mounting hole 215. When the first leg plate 201 and the second leg plate 202 are folded and closed, the first mounting hole 214 and the second mounting hole 215 are coaxially aligned. The first leg plate 201 is provided with outer wing plates 203 on both sides in the axial direction. The second leg plate 202 is provided with inner wing plates 204 on both sides in the axial direction. The second leg plate 202 is located on the inner side of the first leg plate 201. One end of the first leg plate 201 is integrally formed with the counter main body 1. The second leg plate 202 is rotatably installed at the end of the first leg plate 201 away from the counter main body 1.
[0031] The outer wing plate 203 is provided with a shaft hole. The outer side of the inner wing plate 204 is integrally formed with a shaft pin 205, which is inserted into the shaft hole, so as to realize the rotary connection between the second leg plate 202 and the first leg plate 201. An arc guide groove is further provided on the outer wing plate 203, and the center of the arc guide groove is concentric with the shaft hole. A self-locking mechanism is arranged in the arc guide groove, which is used to lock when the second leg plate 202 and the first leg plate 201 are in a vertical or parallel state.
[0032] Specifically, as shown in the drawings Figures 3 to 5As shown, the circular arc guide groove comprises a central circular arc groove body 207 and limiting holes 208 at both ends of the circular arc groove body 207, and the inner diameter of the limiting hole 208 is larger than the inner diameter of the circular arc groove body 207. The self-locking mechanism comprises a shaft 206 and a spring 211. The shaft 206 is matched with the circular arc groove body 207, that is, the outer diameter of the shaft 206 is adapted to the inner diameter of the circular arc groove body 207. The shaft 206 crosses the two circular arc guide grooves, and the two ends of the shaft 206 extend to the outside of the outer wing plate 203. An axle hole is arranged on the inner wing plate 204, the shaft 206 passes through the axle hole, the axle hole is larger than the shaft 206, and the second leg plate 202 can rotate on the shaft 206. The shaft 206 is provided with a first shoulder 209 matched with the limiting hole 208, that is, the outer diameter of the first shoulder 209 is adapted to the inner diameter of the limiting hole 208. Since the inner diameter of the limiting hole 208 is larger than the inner diameter of the circular arc groove body 207, the first shoulder 209 cannot move along the circular arc groove body 207, and the axle hole on the inner wing plate 204 allows the first shoulder 209 to pass, that is, the shaft 206 can move along the radial direction of the first leg plate 201 and the second leg plate 202. The second shoulder 210 is arranged on the inner side of the second leg plate 202, the spring 211 is arranged on the inner side of the second leg plate 202, and the spring 211 is sleeved on the shaft 206. One end of the spring 211 abuts against the second shoulder 210, and the other end abuts against the inner side of the second leg plate 202.
[0033] At the same time, as shown in Figures 3 to 5 The two ends of the shaft 206 are integrally formed with a first stopper 212 and a second stopper 213. In the natural state, the first stopper 212 is attached to the outer side of the first leg plate 201, and the second stopper is spaced from the other side of the first leg plate 201, and the outer diameter of the stopper is larger than the inner diameter of the limiting hole 208, that is, the stopper cannot pass through the limiting hole 208.
[0034] As can be imagined, the discharge counter for lightning arresters provided by the embodiment of the application, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the first leg plate 201 and the second leg plate 202 are in a vertical state, and the fixing holes of the insulating support are in a vertical state, and the second leg plate 202 is in a horizontal state, the mounting holes of the second leg plate 202 are aligned with the fixing holes of the insulating support, and the mounting leg 2 is fixed with the insulating support by bolts to complete the installation. When it is necessary to fold the mounting leg 2, the second leg plate 202 is displaced into the first leg plate 201 for vertical installation of the counter, the second handle 213 is pressed by hand, at this time, the shaft 206 moves in the radial direction, the spring 211 is compressed, the first shoulder 209 exits the limiting hole 208, the shaft 206 enters the limiting hole 208, and then the second leg plate 202 is rotated, the shaft 206 moves along the circular arc groove 207 to the limiting hole 208 on the other side, and then the second handle is released, the spring 211 is reset to return the first shoulder 209 to the limiting hole 208 for limiting. In the current state, the second leg plate 202 is attached to the first leg plate 201, and the two are parallel, the first mounting hole 214 and the second mounting hole 215 are opposite, in this state, the fixing holes of the insulating support are in a horizontal state, the first mounting hole 214 and the second mounting hole 215 are aligned with the fixing holes of the insulating support, and the mounting leg 2 can be installed in a vertical state on the insulating support.
[0035] In summary, the discharge counter for a lightning arrester provided by the embodiment of the present application can be self-locked when the mounting leg is folded to a right angle state and folded to a horizontal state, so that the discharge counter can be self-adapted to complete the installation according to the direction of the mounting hole of the insulating support, and the convenience of the discharge counter installation is greatly improved.
[0036] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, and any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
