[0036] To further understand the content of this utility model, a detailed description of this utility model will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments are merely illustrative of this utility model and are not intended to limit it.

[0037] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-9 This embodiment will be described in further detail.

[0038] Please see Figures 1-6 This embodiment of a transformer conductive rod with lightning protection function includes a guide rod 220 mounted on a transformer 100 via a mounting assembly. The mounting assembly includes a mounting base 230 sleeved at the bottom of the guide rod 220. An insulating shell 120 is provided at the upper end of the guide rod 220. A placement cavity 400 is provided inside the insulating shell 120. A terminal block 111 that is connected to and extends from the upper end of the guide rod 220 is provided inside the placement cavity 400. A porcelain pot 110 is sleeved on the guide rod 220 located between the insulating shell 120 and the mounting base 230. A mounting cavity 620 for the guide rod 220 to pass through is provided at the upper end face of the mounting base 230. A fixing assembly for connecting the transformer 100 is provided inside the mounting base 230. An mounting assembly for connecting the guide rod 220 is provided inside the mounting base 230.

[0039] In this embodiment, the lower end of the guide rod 220 extends into the transformer 100 and is connected to the coil lead of the transformer 100. The upper end of the guide rod 220 is connected to the external line through the terminal block 111. Thus, the transformer guide rod conducts current. This is the existing structure.

[0040] Among them, such as Figure 3As shown, the top of the guide rod 220 extends into the placement cavity 400. The terminal block 111 is fixedly installed on the guide rod 220 located in the placement cavity 400 by a conductive clamp, thereby realizing the connection between the terminal block 111 and the guide rod 220. At the same time, the insulating shell 120 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the guide rod 220, so that the insulating shell 120 can cover the top of the guide rod 220, preventing the top of the guide rod 220 from being exposed to the outside world and generating a point discharge phenomenon. In case of thunderstorms, the guide rod 220 is easily struck by lightning, causing damage to the transformer 100. Thus, the transformer conductive rod has a lightning protection function.

[0041] Among them, the ceramic pot 110 is made of ceramic material and has insulation properties. Multiple ceramic pots 110 are provided. Multiple ceramic pots 110 are fixed on the guide rod 220 between the mounting base 230 and the insulating shell 120 by screwing the nut 330 into the guide rod 220. This can prevent short circuits from occurring between adjacent guide rods 220 when conducting current.

[0042] The mounting bracket 230 is preferably mounted and dismounted on the transformer 100 by setting up the fixing components; the guide rod 220 is preferably mounted and dismounted on the mounting bracket 230 by setting up the mounting components.

[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, the mounting base 230, the fixing component, and the mounting component are all made of insulating material.

[0044] like Figure 1-9 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper end face of the transformer 100 is provided with a mounting groove 210 into which the mounting base 230 extends. The side wall of the mounting groove 210 is provided with a slot 211 opposite to each other, and the slot 211 is provided with a fixing hole 212. The outer side wall of the mounting base 230 is provided with a locking block 650 that slides in the slot 211. The mounting base 230 is provided with a fixing cavity 900. The fixing assembly includes a fixing rod 640 that can be slidably disposed in the fixing cavity 900 and can be extended into the fixing hole 212. The fixing rod 640 extends into the corresponding fixing hole 212 to fix the mounting base 230.

[0045] In practical use, the arrangement of the slot 211 and the block 650 in this embodiment allows the block 650 and the slot 211 to be aligned when the guide rod 220 is installed on the transformer 100. When the mounting base 230 is installed in the mounting groove 210, the fixing rod 640 and the fixing hole 212 can be aligned so that the fixing rod 640 can extend into the fixing hole 212, thereby fixing the mounting base 230 in the mounting groove 210. When the fixing rod 640 retracts and disengages from the fixing hole 212, the fixing of the mounting base 230 can be released, allowing the mounting base 230 to be disassembled in the mounting groove 210.

[0046] like Figure 5-9As shown, in this embodiment, the fixing cavity 900 is opened on the side near the fixing hole 212, the fixing rod 640 is installed in the fixing cavity 900 by the spring 911, the upper side of the mounting base 230 is provided with a sliding groove 600 communicating with the fixing cavity 900 along the axial direction of the fixing cavity 900, and the fixing rod 640 is provided with an operating rod 601 that slides in the sliding groove 600.

[0047] In this embodiment, the spring 911 is used to push the fixing rod 640 to move outward toward the fixing cavity 900, so that when it extends into the fixing hole 212, the mounting base 230 is fixed in the mounting groove 210. At this time, the operating rod 601 slides to the outer end of the slide groove 600. When it is necessary to release the fixing of the mounting base 230 in the mounting groove 210, the operating rod 601 is moved along the slide groove 600, thereby driving the fixing rod 640 to retract into the fixing cavity 900, so that the fixing rod 640 is disengaged from the fixing hole 212. The shape of the fixing rod 640 is adapted to the shape of the fixing cavity 900. The spring 911 is installed in the fixing cavity 900 to smoothly push the fixing rod 640 to move.

[0048] The operating lever 601 is threaded through the corresponding slide groove 600 and connected to the fixing rod 640 so that the fixing component can be installed.

[0049] The mounting holes 212 and the mounting rods 640 are both provided in twos. Through the above structure, the mounting base 230 can be subjected to force on both sides when it is installed in the mounting groove 210, making its installation more stable.

[0050] like Figure 2-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper end of the mounting base 230 extends upward to form a boss 610. The boss 610 is fitted with a rotatable first rotating ring 630. The first rotating ring 630 is provided with opposite hooks 631. One side of the hooks 631 abuts against the corresponding operating lever 601. The rotation of the first rotating ring 630 is used to drive the oppositely arranged operating lever 601 to move synchronously.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first rotating ring 630 is sleeved on the outside of the boss portion 610 via a bearing, thereby enabling the first rotating ring 630 to be rotatably mounted on the boss portion 610. When the first rotating ring 630 rotates, it can drive the hook 631 to rotate synchronously. The hook 631 presses the corresponding operating rod 601 to move along the slide groove 600, causing the fixing rods 640 to move closer to each other and disengage from the corresponding fixing hole 212. There are two hooks 631. With this structure, rotating the first rotating ring 630 once can make the two operating rods 601 move synchronously, making the disassembly and assembly of the mounting base 230 in the mounting groove 210 simple and convenient.

[0052] like Figure 2-8As shown, in this embodiment, the outer side wall of the guide rod 220 is provided with mounting holes 500, and the bottom wall of the mounting base 230 is provided with an annular groove 700. The mounting assembly includes a mounting block 710 radially disposed within the annular groove 700. The mounting block 710 is provided with a positioning block 713 that penetrates the mounting base 230 and extends into the mounting cavity 620. The mounting block 710 is provided with a first inclined surface 712. A second rotating ring 720 is threaded into the annular groove 700. The second rotating ring 720 is provided with a second inclined surface 800 corresponding to the first inclined surface 712. The second rotating ring 720 is screwed into the annular groove 700 to drive the second inclined surface 800 to press the first inclined surface 712 and push the positioning block 713 into the mounting hole 500.

[0053] In this embodiment, by rotating the second rotating ring 720, since the inner wall of the second rotating ring 720 is threadedly connected to the annular groove 700, the second rotating ring 720 will move along the axial direction of the annular groove 700, causing the second inclined surface 800 to move upward. When the second inclined surface 800 moves upward and contacts the first inclined surface 712, the mounting block 710 is squeezed by the second inclined surface 800, causing the mounting block 710 to move towards the mounting hole 500 and extend into the mounting hole 500, thereby completing the connection between the mounting base 230 and the guide rod 220.

[0054] like Figure 7-9 As shown, in this embodiment, a guide rod 711 is provided inside the annular groove 700, which passes through the corresponding mounting block 710. A movable cavity is provided on the inner side wall of the annular groove 700 for the positioning block 713 to extend out. An elastic sheet is provided inside the movable cavity for driving the mounting block 710 to reset.

[0055] In this embodiment, the size of the mounting block 710 is larger than that of the positioning block 713. The opening of the moving cavity is set towards the annular groove 700. The bottom wall of the moving cavity is provided with a hole that can only allow the positioning block 713 to extend out. Thus, the elastic sheet can be installed in the moving cavity so that it can push the mounting block 710 to reset.

[0056] The guide rod 711 restricts the movement of the mounting block 710, allowing it to move only along the axial direction of the guide rod 711. Under the thrust of the elastic plate, when the second inclined surface 800 disengages from the state of pressing the first inclined surface 712, the mounting block 710 extends out of the mounting hole 500 and retracts into the moving cavity. At this time, the connection between the guide rod 220 and the mounting base 230 can be released.

[0057] like Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the lower end face of the second rotating ring 720 is provided with a plurality of gripping grooves 721 along its circumference.

[0058] In this embodiment, the grip groove 721 is provided so that when the second rotating ring 720 is rotated, fingers can be inserted into the grip groove 721, which facilitates the rotation of the second rotating ring 720.

[0059] like Figure 5-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the inner wall of the boss portion 610 is provided with a first positioning groove 611, the inner wall of the mounting cavity 620 is provided with a second positioning groove 621, and the outer wall of the guide rod 220 is provided with a positioning plate 510 that can extend into the corresponding first positioning groove 611 and second positioning groove 621.

[0060] In this embodiment, by setting the first positioning groove 611, the second positioning groove 621 and the positioning plate 510, when connecting the mounting base 230 and the guide rod 220, the positioning plate 510 is aligned with the first positioning groove 611 and the second positioning groove 621, and the guide rod 220 is moved down so that the positioning plate 510 extends into the first positioning groove 611 and the second positioning groove 621. At this time, the mounting hole 500 is aligned with the mounting block 710, which facilitates the connection between the mounting base 230 and the guide rod 220.

[0061] Working principle: When the guide rod 220 needs to be installed on the transformer 100, firstly, the mounting base 230 is placed at the upper end of the mounting groove 210. Then, the positioning plate 510 is aligned with the first positioning groove 611 and the second positioning groove 621, and the first rotating ring 630 is rotated to drive the hook 631 to press the operating rod 601. The operating rod 601 moves along the slide groove 600, causing the fixing rod 640 to retract into the fixing cavity 900. At this time, under the action of gravity, the mounting base 230... The guide rod 220 is lowered into the mounting groove 210. The first rotating ring 630 is released, and under the pushing force of the spring 911, the fixing rod 640 extends into the fixing hole 212, completing the connection between the guide rod 220 and the transformer 100. When the guide rod 220 needs to be repaired, the first rotating ring 630 can be rotated to drive the hook 631 to squeeze the operating rod 601. The operating rod 601 moves along the slide groove 600, causing the fixing rod 640 to retract into the fixing cavity 900. Then the guide rod 220 can be lifted.

[0062] In summary, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of the patent application of the present utility model shall fall within the scope of the patent of the present utility model.
