Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transformer installation, and in particular to a transformer mounting bracket. Background Technology
[0002] A power transformer is a static electrical device used to convert a certain value of AC voltage (current) into another or several different values of voltage (current) with the same frequency. Outdoor transformers are usually installed between two utility poles, so a transformer mounting bracket is required.
[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN210378686U discloses a transformer mounting bracket, including a horizontal frame, clamps, a protective box, a protective cover, a left connecting mechanism, and a right connecting mechanism. Clamps are hinged to both ends of the horizontal frame. A protective box is fixedly mounted on the upper middle part of the horizontal frame, with an upward-opening box structure. A protective cover is located on the outer upper part of the protective box, with a downward-opening box structure. A gap exists between the outer upper part of the protective box and the inner lower part of the protective cover. At least two left connecting mechanisms, which can be installed together with the left side of the protective cover, are evenly distributed at intervals on the left side. Each left connecting mechanism includes a fixing pin, a baffle, and a spring. This utility model has a simple structure and is easy to install. While completing the installation and fixing of the transformer, it can also protect the transformer to prevent rainwater from corroding the transformer casing and causing rust, thus ensuring the safe and normal operation of the transformer.
[0004] However, the existing transformer mounting racks cannot provide protection for the transformer after installation. Since the transformer is installed outdoors, it will be severely exposed to wind and sun, which will affect its service life. Furthermore, because the transformer is installed at a high position, workers need to use external lifting tools to climb onto the mounting rack when inspecting the transformer. However, the space on the mounting rack is limited, making it difficult to operate during maintenance. Utility Model Content
[0005] The main purpose of this utility model is to provide a transformer mounting bracket that can effectively solve the technical problem in the background art of not being able to provide protective measures for transformers, and that the transformers are subject to severe wind and sun exposure in the outdoor environment, which affects the service life of the transformers.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A transformer mounting bracket includes a support frame and a clamp. The support frame consists of two support beams connected by a bolt assembly. The clamp consists of two arc plates connected at both ends by a bolt assembly. The bolt assembly consists of a screw and a nut. The upper part of the support frame is provided with a protective structure, which includes a fixed seat and a connecting rod. The fixed seat is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frame, and the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the front of the fixed seat. A protective plate is fixedly installed at the top of the connecting rod.
[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the protective structure is symmetrically arranged in two sets, and each protective plate is paired with two fixing seats and two connecting rods.
[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a fixing bolt passes through the front part of the connecting rod, and the fixing bolt is threadedly connected to the support frame.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the protective plate is composed of a plate body, two baffles, a first water-blocking plate and two second water-blocking plates. The two second water-blocking plates are integrally connected to the rear ends of the plate body, the first water-blocking plate is fixedly installed at the front of the protective plate, and the two baffles are integrally connected to the front ends of the plate body.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the rear surface of the protective plate is provided with three U-shaped grooves, and the U-shaped grooves of the two protective plates are aligned.
[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a stop block is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixed base. The stop block is triangular in shape and is used to limit the connecting rod.
[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] By setting up a protective plate in conjunction with a connecting rod, the plate can cover the transformer after installation, providing shelter and reducing the impact of rain and sunlight on the transformer, thus improving the protection effect without affecting the transformer's wiring.
[0015] By setting up baffles and blocks in conjunction with protective plates and connecting rods, the protective plates can be flipped downwards during maintenance work. The work can be limited by utility poles or blocks, allowing workers to stand on top of the protective plates to carry out maintenance work. Compared to the traditional method where workers need to stand directly on the support frame, the workers have more operating space and it is more convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Example 1
[0024] Combination Figures 1-5 A transformer mounting bracket includes a support frame 1 and a clamp 2. The support frame 1 consists of two support beams connected by a bolt assembly 3. The clamp 2 consists of two arc plates connected at both ends by a bolt assembly 3. The bolt assembly 3 consists of a screw and a nut. The upper part of the support frame 1 is provided with a protective structure 4, which includes a fixed seat 5 and a connecting rod 6. The fixed seat 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frame 1, and the connecting rod 6 is rotatably connected to the front of the fixed seat 5. A protective plate 7 is fixedly installed at the top of the connecting rod 6.
[0025] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 Furthermore, it is found that the protective structure 4 is symmetrically arranged in two sets, and each protective plate 7 is paired with two fixed seats 5 and two connecting rods 6. The front part of the connecting rod 6 is penetrated by a fixing bolt 8, and the fixing bolt 8 is threadedly connected to the support frame 1.
[0026] Specifically, the clamp 2, composed of two arc plates, is fitted onto the outside of the utility pole and then locked in place by bolt assembly 3. Then, the support frame 1, composed of two support beams, is fitted onto the outside of the utility pole above the clamp 2 by bolt assembly 3, thus fixing the entire mounting frame between the two utility poles. Finally, the transformer is installed at the center of the upper part of the support frame 1. After installation, the protective plate 7 of the protective structure 4 covers the transformer, which can serve to block rain and sun.
[0027] Example 2
[0028] See Figure 2 Based on Embodiment 1, the protective plate 7 is composed of a plate body, two baffles 10, a first water baffle 11 and two second water baffles 12. The two second water baffles 12 are integrally connected to the rear ends of the plate body. The first water baffle 11 is fixedly installed at the front of the protective plate 7. The two baffles 10 are integrally connected to the front ends of the plate body. A stop block 13 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the fixing seat 5. The stop block 13 is triangular and is used to limit the connecting rod 6.
[0029] Specifically, after the transformer is installed, the connecting rod 6 is threadedly connected to the support frame 1 by the fixing bolt 8, so that the protective plate 7 can cover the top of the transformer. The first water baffle 11 and the second water baffle 12 can guide rainwater. The baffle 10 can work with the utility pole to restrict the rotation of the connecting rod 6 after the protective plate 7 is flipped over. At the same time, the stop block 13 can also limit the rotation angle of the connecting rod 6, making it convenient for workers to stand on the flipped-down protective plate 7 to carry out maintenance work on the transformer.
[0030] Example 3
[0031] See Figure 1 Based on Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, the rear surface of the protective plate 7 is provided with three U-shaped grooves 9, and the U-shaped grooves 9 of the two protective plates 7 are aligned.
[0032] Specifically, the three U-shaped grooves 9 can be used to pass through the transformer wires. After the wires are passed through, tools such as putty, tape, and rubber can be used to seal the gaps between the U-shaped grooves 9 and the wires, so as to improve the rainproof effect without affecting the wire passing.
[0033] It should be noted that this utility model is a transformer mounting bracket. In use, the clamp 2 is fixed to the outside of two utility poles, and the support frame 1 is also fixed to the outside of the two utility poles above the clamp 2 by bolt assembly 3. Then, the transformer is installed in the center of the upper part of the support frame 1. After installation, the fixing bolt 8 passes through the connecting rod 6 and connects to the support frame 1, so that the two protective plates 7 face upward and cover the top of the transformer. At the same time, the wires connected to the transformer pass through the U-shaped groove 9. Finally, the gap between the wires and the U-shaped groove 9 is sealed with plastic putty, tape, rubber and other tools. When it rains, the protective plate 7, together with the first water baffle 11 and the second water baffle 12, can play a role in blocking water and reducing the impact of rainwater on the transformer.
[0034] When the transformer needs to be repaired, rotate the fixing bolt 8 to separate it from the support frame 1, and then rotate the connecting rod 6 to make the protective plate 7 flip downwards. When the baffle 10 contacts the utility pole, it is stopped. At this time, the workers can stand on the upper part of the protective plate 7 to perform intermittent work on the transformer. After the repair work is completed, it can be restored to its original position.
[0035] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
