Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an outdoor pole-mounted vacuum circuit breaker. Background Technology
[0002] Outdoor pole-mounted vacuum circuit breakers are important switching devices used in medium and high voltage power grids, primarily for line control and protection. Their working principle involves rapidly extinguishing the electric arc through a vacuum interrupter, thereby cutting off or connecting the circuit. To improve insulation and waterproofing at the terminal block, outdoor pole-mounted vacuum circuit breakers typically have an insulating sleeve installed there. Traditional insulating sleeves have the following drawbacks: 1. The simple design of traditional insulating sleeves may leave gaps between the sleeve and the terminal block or interrupter, easily leading to localized leakage or creepage, resulting in decreased insulation performance and affecting operational safety; 2. Traditional insulating sleeves are installed on the terminal block or interrupter cylinder using a simple sleeve connection method. Due to the lack of a robust connection structure, the insulating sleeve is prone to detachment or displacement under long-term operation due to vibration, wind, rain, and other external forces, reducing insulation and waterproofing performance. Improvements and optimizations are therefore proposed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

The insulating connector includes a connector rod portion. Connector mounting holes that are spaced apart on the connector rod portion and correspond to the main body limiting groove are provided. A flow-blocking block is provided between the two connector mounting holes on the connector rod portion.

The terminal block 3 includes a terminal block fixing part 8 fixed to the upper end of the vacuum interrupter assembly 2 and a terminal block external connection part 9 inclined upward. The insulating sleeve assembly 4 includes an insulating sleeve main body 10 and an insulating connector 11 connecting multiple insulating sleeve main bodies 10. The insulating connector 11 allows multiple insulating sleeve main bodies to be connected to form an insulating barrier, further increasing the current creepage distance and greatly improving the insulation performance.
[0021] The insulating sleeve main body 10 includes a main body sleeve portion 13 covering the outer side of the cylindrical body 6 and a main body lower portion 14 covering the cylindrical body boss 7. A main body connecting portion 15 is provided above the main body sleeve portion 13, and a main body limiting groove 16 is provided on the main body connecting portion 15. A main body clearance opening 17 for the terminal block 3 to pass through is provided on the outer wall of the main body sleeve portion 13. Both the main body sleeve portion 13 and the main body lower portion 14 are provided with main body cutouts 18 to facilitate the fitting of the insulating sleeve main body 10. The insulating connector... 11 includes a connecting rod body 20, on which connecting rod body 20 is provided at intervals to connect with the main casing limiting groove 16. The connecting rod body 20 is provided with a flow-blocking block 22 between the two connecting mounting holes 21. The insulating sleeve main casing 10 provides more comprehensive coverage, ensuring that the insulating sleeve can completely cover the cylinder body and the boss, reducing gaps and avoiding leakage or creepage. The main casing cutout 18 simplifies the installation process, allowing the insulating sleeve main casing 10 to be quickly fitted, saving time and reducing labor intensity.
