Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of live detection technology for ring main units, specifically to a live detection device for ring main units. Background Technology

[0002] A ring main unit live-line detection device is a device used to detect whether a ring main unit has partial discharge when it is energized. This device usually combines multiple sensors and technologies to achieve comprehensive monitoring of the insulation status inside the ring main unit.

[0003] Existing handheld live-line testing devices require workers to hold the device while testing the ring main unit. If leakage occurs at this time, there is a risk of electric shock when the handheld device is close to the ring main unit, which is very dangerous. Therefore, a live-line testing device for ring main units is proposed to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a live detection device for ring main units to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A live-line detection device for a ring main unit includes a live-line detection device body. One end of the live-line detection device body has symmetrically arranged limiting holes. Contacts are located inside the limiting holes. A spring located outside the contact is fixedly connected inside the limiting holes. A detection head located inside the limiting holes is fixedly connected to the end of the spring away from the contact. Limiting grooves are located on both sides of the limiting holes inside the live-line detection device body. Limiting blocks are slidably connected inside the limiting grooves. A connecting seat is fixedly connected to the end of the live-line detection device body away from the detection head. A telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting seat away from the live-line detection device body. A fixed ring is fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic rod away from the connecting seat. A limiting ring is rotatably connected inside the fixed ring. An adjusting rod is fixedly connected to the inside of the limiting ring. One end of the adjusting rod has a threaded groove, and a threaded rod is helically connected inside the threaded groove.

[0007] Preferably, a handle is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing ring, and a grip is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting rod away from the connecting seat.

[0008] Preferably, there are four limiting blocks, and two groups of two are formed. Each group of limiting blocks is symmetrically and fixedly connected to the outside of the detection head.

[0009] Preferably, there are two springs, which are symmetrically arranged between the body of the live detection device and the detection head.

[0010] Preferably, the detection head and the limiting hole are a set, and there are two sets in total. The outer dimensions of the detection head and the inner dimensions of the limiting hole are matched.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. In this utility model, the live-line detection device body, connecting seat, telescopic rod, fixed ring, limiting ring, adjusting rod, threaded groove, threaded rod, handle, and grip are configured. First, the handle is held, and then the grip is rotated. The grip drives the adjusting rod and limiting ring to rotate inside the fixed ring. The adjusting rod drives the threaded groove to rotate as well. As the threaded groove rotates, the threaded rod extends out from inside the adjusting rod. As the threaded rod extends, it drives the telescopic rod, connecting seat, and live-line detection device body to move to a distance. The telescopic rod is also stretched during this process. The threaded rod moves linearly under the guidance of the connecting seat, telescopic rod, and fixed ring. Through the above operation, the effect of live-line detection of ring main units can be achieved by workers at a distance. This solves the problem that existing handheld live-line detection devices require workers to hold the live-line detection device to detect the ring main unit. If leakage occurs at this time, there is a risk of electric shock when the handheld live-line detection device is close to the ring main unit, which is very dangerous.

[0013] 2. In this utility model, when the live-line detection device body approaches the ring main unit, the detection head will contact the ring main unit. Then, the live-line detection device body is pushed to move by the adjusting rod. As the live-line detection device body moves, the detection head will retract into the limiting hole. The detection head will drive the limiting block to move in the limiting groove, guiding the detection head and preventing it from falling off. After the detection head enters the limiting hole, it will compress the spring, and finally the detection head will contact the contact point, thereby connecting the detection head and the live-line detection device body. Then, the live-line detection device body can be used to perform live detection on the ring main unit. The limiting hole and spring can play a buffering role to avoid damage to the detection head caused by hard impact. Attached Figure Description

[0020] Furthermore, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to define components is merely for the purpose of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this invention.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0022] A live-line detection device for a ring main unit includes a live-line detection device body 1. One end of the live-line detection device body 1 has symmetrically arranged limiting holes 2. The limiting holes 2 have contacts 3 inside. A spring 4 located outside the contacts 3 is fixedly connected inside the limiting holes 2. The end of the spring 4 away from the contacts 3 is fixedly connected to a detection head 5 located inside the limiting holes 2. The live-line detection device body 1 has limiting grooves 6 located on both sides of the limiting holes 2 inside. Limiting blocks 7 are slidably connected inside the limiting grooves 6. A connecting seat 8 is fixedly connected to the end of the live-line detection device body 1 away from the detection head 5. A telescopic rod 9 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting seat 8 away from the live-line detection device body 1. A fixed ring 10 is fixedly connected to the end of the telescopic rod 9 away from the connecting seat 8. A limiting ring 11 is rotatably connected inside the fixed ring 10. An adjusting rod 12 is fixedly connected inside the limiting ring 11. One end of the adjusting rod 12 has a threaded groove 13. A threaded rod 14 is helically connected inside the threaded groove 13.

[0023] A handle 15 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the fixing ring 10, and a grip 16 is fixedly connected to the end of the adjusting rod 12 away from the connecting seat 8. There are four limiting blocks 7, and two sets of two blocks are arranged in pairs. One set of limiting blocks 7 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the outer side of the detection head 5. The two limiting blocks 7 can limit the detection head 5 and prevent it from falling off. There are two springs 4, which are symmetrically arranged between the live detection device body 1 and the detection head 5. The springs 4 can connect the detection head 5 and the live detection device body 1 and can act as a buffer during detection. When the detection head 5 does not contact the ring main unit, the springs 4 can separate the detection head 5 from the contact point 3. The detection head 5 and the limiting hole 2 are a set of two. The outer dimensions of the detection head 5 and the inner dimensions of the limiting hole 2 are matched, which is more conducive to the movement of the detection head 5 in the limiting hole 2 and keeps the detection head 5 and the limiting hole 2 in a close fit.

[0024] Workflow: When using a live-line detection device for a ring main unit, first grasp the handle 15, then rotate the handle 16. The handle 16 drives the adjusting rod 12 and the limiting ring 11 to rotate inside the fixed ring 10. The adjusting rod 12 drives the threaded groove 13 to rotate together. As the threaded groove 13 rotates, the threaded rod 14 extends out from inside the adjusting rod 12. With the extension of the threaded rod 14, the threaded rod 14 drives the telescopic rod 9, the connecting seat 8, and the live-line detection device body 1 to move away. The telescopic rod 9 is also stretched during this process. The threaded rod 14 moves linearly under the guidance of the connecting seat 8, the telescopic rod 9, and the fixed ring 10. Through the above operation, the worker can perform live-line detection on the ring main unit from a distance. When the live-line detection device body 1 approaches the ring main unit, the detection head 5 will contact the ring main unit. The device makes contact, and then the live-line detection device body 1 is moved by the adjusting rod 12 and the threaded rod 14. As the live-line detection device body 1 moves, the detection head 5 retracts into the limiting hole 2. The detection head 5 drives the limiting block 7 to move in the limiting groove 6, which guides the detection head 5 and prevents it from falling off. After the detection head 5 enters the limiting hole 2, it compresses the spring 4. Finally, the detection head 5 makes contact with the contact point 3, thereby connecting the detection head 5 and the live-line detection device body 1. Then, the live-line detection device body 1 can be used to perform live-line detection on the ring main unit. The limiting hole 2 and the spring 4 can play a buffering role to avoid damage to the detection head 5 caused by hard impact. After the detection is completed, the handle 16 is rotated in the opposite direction to retract the threaded rod 14 into the adjusting rod 12, thereby reducing the overall length and facilitating subsequent storage and movement.
