[0024] AsFigure 1 、 Figure 2 The utility model discloses an application for the frequency converter on the enhanced protection structure, the frequency converter including box 1, the device cavity 2 of setting in box 1, air duct cavity 3, power heat generating device 4, electrolytic capacitor 5 to setting in the heat dissipation fan 6 of air duct cavity 3 export position are concerned. Wherein, air duct cavity 3 and device cavity 2 are two different areas, and air duct cavity 3 is provided with inlet and outlet, and inlet and outlet are all communicated with the outside of box 1, and cold air enters from the inlet of air duct cavity 3 under the action of heat dissipation fan 6, and after taking away heat, it is discharged to the environment from the outlet of air duct cavity 3, reaches the purpose of the heat dissipation of power heat generating device 4 and electrolytic capacitor 5 etc. in box 1. The electrolytic capacitor 5 is partially arranged in the air duct cavity 3, and is partially arranged in the device cavity 2, and the electrolytic capacitor 5 is installed and passes the mounting hole of the partition 7 in box 1. Wherein, the partition 7 is used to isolate air duct cavity 3 and device cavity 2.

[0025] When the frequency converter operates, heat dissipation fan 6 drives air to flow in air duct cavity 3. After the installation of electrolytic capacitor 5, there is a gap between the electrolytic capacitor 5 and the mounting hole of the partition 7, and the gap cannot be completely sealed due to assembly reasons, and the dust in the air can enter the device cavity 2 through the gap, and then adhere to the surface of power heat generating device 4 and other devices, which affects the heat dissipation of the devices, and even if the air contains metal dust, the metal dust adheres to the conductor and easily causes a short circuit of the circuit. Therefore, in the embodiment, a dustproof insulating ring 8 is arranged, and the dustproof insulating ring 8 is matched with the electrolytic capacitor 5 and the partition 7 without a gap, so that the dust in the outside is prevented from entering the device cavity 2, and the dustproof purpose is achieved.

[0026] In the embodiment, the dustproof insulating ring 8 is made of high-temperature-resistant insulating PC material with a thickness of 0.3-0.5 mm. The material has low cost, certain strength and toughness, and is not easy to warp and deform, so that the dustproof insulating ring 8 can be seamlessly attached to the surface of the partition 7, and at the same time, the slight stretching required for the dustproof insulating ring 8 to be sleeved on the electrolytic capacitor 5 is met, so that the insulating protective outer film of the electrolytic capacitor 5 is not scratched, and the dustproof insulating ring 8 can be seamlessly attached.

[0027] It should be noted that the outer diameter of the dustproof insulating ring 8 is greater than the hole diameter of the mounting hole, and the dustproof insulating ring 8 is clamped on one side of the partition 7 through the fixed clamp 9 during installation, so that the gap is firmly and reliably sealed. In addition, the inner diameter of the dustproof insulating ring 8 is equal to or slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the electrolytic capacitor 5, and the slight stretching required for the dustproof insulating ring 8 to be sleeved on the electrolytic capacitor 5 is met.

[0028] The fixed clamping hoop 9 is provided with a gap, and clamping holes are arranged on the regions of the fixed clamping hoop 9 on both sides of the gap, the regions of the fixed clamping hoop 9 on both sides of the gap are connected firmly by the bolt 10 and the nut, so that the fixed clamping hoop 9 is clamped after being sleeved on the electrolytic capacitor 5. Meanwhile, the fixed clamping hoop 9 is also provided with a riveting hole, and a riveting hole is also arranged on the baffle 7 correspondingly, and the fixed clamping hoop 9 and the baffle 7 are pressed tightly by the bolt 10 and the nut, so that the dustproof insulating ring 8 between the fixed clamping hoop 9 and the baffle 7 is pressed tightly, and the effect of reliable sealing of the gap is achieved.

[0029] The riveting holes are arranged in multiple and distributed around the mounting hole of the fixed clamping hoop 9 and the baffle 7, so that the dustproof insulating ring 8 is subjected to uniform pressing force, and a better sealing effect is achieved. Figure 3 As shown in the preferred embodiment, the fixed clamping hoop 9 extends out an L-shaped fixed foot in the embodiment, the riveting hole is arranged on the fixed foot, so as to facilitate alignment with the riveting hole on the baffle 7, and the lower surface of the fixed foot is in direct contact with the fixed clamping hoop 9, thereby producing a pressing effect on the fixed clamping hoop 9.

[0030] During installation, the fixed clamping hoop 9 is fixed on the electrolytic capacitor 5 by the bolt 10 and the nut by using a tooling jig; the electrolytic capacitor 5 is placed upside down, and the dustproof insulating ring 8 is sleeved on the upside-down electrolytic capacitor 5 from top to bottom. Since the dustproof insulating ring 8 is made of PC material, it has certain tension and expansion rate, and can be tightly sleeved on the electrolytic capacitor 5 and kept in a gapless fitting state with the electrolytic capacitor 5; the electrolytic capacitor 5 is adjusted from the upside-down state to the normal placement state, the center axis of the electrolytic capacitor 5 is aligned with the center of the mounting hole of the baffle 7 in the box body 1, and then the electrolytic capacitor 5 is passed through the baffle 7 from top to bottom until the lower surface of the dustproof insulating ring 8 is attached to the upper surface of the baffle 7, and the lower surface of the fixed clamping hoop 9 is attached to the upper surface of the dustproof insulating ring 8; the riveting hole of the fixed clamping hoop 9 is aligned with the riveting hole on the baffle 7 by rotating the electrolytic capacitor 5, and then the bolt 10 is locked and fixed with appropriate torque. In this way, the dustproof insulating ring 8 is pressed and fixed by the multiple fixed feet of the fixed clamping hoop 9, so as to prevent external dust from entering the device cavity 2 from the mounting gap of the electrolytic capacitor 5, and the dustproof purpose is achieved.

[0031] Any combination of the technical features of the above embodiments can be made, and in order to make the description concise, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are not described, however, as long as the combination of the technical features does not exist contradictory, it should be considered as the scope of the present application.

[0032] The above embodiments only express several implementation ways of the present application, and the description is specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as a limitation to the scope of the application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can be made, which all belong to the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the appended claims.
