DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0016] The present application will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments.
[0017] like Figs. 1-3 As shown, a long-life internal oil-type metal expansion tube 2 oil conservator includes a housing 1 and an expansion tube 2 disposed within the housing 1. The expansion tube 2 is used to store transformer oil and can extend and retract in the vertical direction. The expansion tube 2 is connected to the transformer through a pipe. The key feature is that a movable plate 3 is provided at the top of the expansion tube 2, a limiting rod 4 is provided inside the housing 1, a transverse sliding hole 31 is provided on the movable plate 3, the limiting rod 4 is inclined and passes through the transverse sliding hole 31, and the length of the transverse sliding hole 31 is greater than the outer diameter of the limiting rod 4; a vertical sliding hole 11 is provided on the side of the housing 1 near the limiting rod 4, and an indicator rod 5 is provided on the limiting rod 4 and above the movable plate 3. One end of the indicator rod 5 is movably connected to the limiting rod 4 and can move along the length direction of the limiting rod 4, and the other end of the indicator rod 5 passes through the vertical sliding hole 11 and extends to the outside of the housing 1.
[0018] The movable plate 3 is fitted onto the outside of the limiting rod 4 through a transverse sliding hole 31, and the transverse sliding hole 31 is long enough so that when the expansion tube 2 expands or contracts due to changes in the amount of transformer oil inside, the movable plate 3 can reciprocate in the vertical direction. The movement of the movable plate 3 will cause the indicator rod 5 to slide on the limiting rod 4. Because the limiting rod 4 is inclined, when the indicator rod 5 slides along the length direction of the limiting rod 4, the length of the indicator rod 5 extending to the outside of the housing 1 will change. Inspectors can directly and conveniently judge the amount of oil stored in the expansion tube 2 by the length of the indicator rod 5 on the outside of the housing 1.
[0019] A mounting bracket 12 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1, and the mounting bracket 12 is connected to the outer wall of the transformer. A limiting rod 4 is provided on one side of the expansion tube 2, and a sliding rod 6 extending vertically is provided on the other side of the expansion tube 2. A sliding sleeve 32 is provided on the movable plate 3, and the sliding sleeve 32 is fitted on the outside of the sliding rod 6 and can slide along the length of the sliding rod 6. The mounting bracket 12 enables reliable installation of the housing 1 on the outside of the transformer. Through the cooperation of the sliding rod 6 and the sliding sleeve 32, the expansion direction of the expansion tube 2 can be reliably limited, ensuring that the inclined limiting rod 4 will not interfere with the expansion of the expansion tube 2, and also ensuring that the vertical expansion of the expansion tube 2 can be converted into the lateral displacement of the indicator rod 5 for easy observation.
[0020] The limiting rod 4 is provided with a sliding groove 41 on the side facing the vertical sliding hole 11, the radial section of the sliding groove 41 is in the shape of a Chinese character, the groove bottom of the sliding groove 41 is provided with a sliding block 42 in a matched manner, the sliding groove 41 extends along the length direction of the limiting rod 4, and the sliding block 42 can slide in the sliding groove 41. The indicating rod 5 is connected with the sliding block 42 through a universal joint 43, and the bottom of the end of the indicating rod 5 connected with the universal joint 43 is attached to the top of the movable plate 3. The sliding block 42 can slide in the sliding groove 41 but cannot fall out of the sliding groove 41, so that the indicating rod 5 connected with the sliding block 42 can be displaced in the horizontal direction in the sliding process of the sliding block 42, and the oil amount of the transformer oil in the expansion pipe 2 is indicated. Further, the indicating rod 5 is connected with the sliding block 42 through the universal joint 43, so that the indicating rod 5 can always keep the state of extending horizontally and is not affected by the inclined movement of the sliding block 42.
[0021] The indicating rod 5 comprises a prismatic part 51 and a cylindrical part 52 arranged coaxially, when the expansion pipe 2 is in the contracted state, the cylindrical part 52 and the prismatic part 51 both extend to the outside of the shell 1, and when the expansion pipe 2 is in the expanded state, the cylindrical part 52 extends to the outside of the shell 1 and the prismatic part 51 is located inside the shell 1. The shapes of the prismatic part 51 and the cylindrical part 52 are obviously different, when only the cylindrical part 52 is located outside the shell 1, the oil storage amount in the expansion pipe 2 is in a reasonable state, and the patrol personnel can choose whether to fill the transformer oil according to the situation, and when the cylindrical part 52 is entirely located outside the shell 1 and part of the prismatic part 51 is located outside the shell 1, it indicates that the oil storage amount in the expansion pipe 2 is too low, and the patrol personnel needs to fill the transformer oil in the expansion pipe 2 in priority.
[0022] The inner wall of the vertical sliding hole 11 is provided with a plurality of bristles 13, the bristles 13 cover the vertical sliding hole 11, and the prismatic part 51 and the cylindrical part 52 can pass through the bristles 13 and extend to the outside of the shell 1. After the plurality of bristles 13 are arranged, the prismatic part 51 and the cylindrical part 52 can still slide in the vertical sliding hole 11, and the remaining part of the vertical sliding hole 11 will be covered, thereby playing a dustproof role. Further, the prismatic part 51 and the cylindrical part 52 will produce friction with the bristles 13 in the sliding process, thereby playing a cleaning role on the prismatic part 51 and the cylindrical part 52.
[0023] The above-mentioned embodiments are only preferred embodiments of the present application, and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present application, and any non-essential changes and replacements made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the present application all belong to the scope of protection claimed by the present application.
