Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to a contact box for switch cabinet technical field, especially in and out double shielding type short size contact box. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, the contact box for switch cabinet on the market generally has the following problems: the contact box cannot complete its function alone, and must be used together with the matching bend spacer in the switch cabinet to meet the insulation requirements. In actual application, the two adjacent contact boxes and the contact box and the bend spacer must be used in splicing, resulting in a splicing gap, which makes the inter-phase voltage or the relative ground voltage borne by the epoxy resin insulation material and the air gap. Due to the different voltages induced on the surfaces of the two insulation pieces, and due to the distribution of the stray capacitance in the epoxy resin insulation material and the small air gap, the small air gap bears a large part of the induced voltage. Since the air gap is very small, the electric field strength is very high, which can cause corona discharge in the air gap. When the product is in operation, the surface of the two adjacent contact boxes and the contact box and the bend spacer will generate induced charges and induced voltages. This induced voltage can cause corona discharge in the small air gap between the adjacent contact boxes and the contact box and the bend spacer. Long-term operation can cause insulation failure, resulting in damage to the equipment.

In addition, the term "comprising" and any variations thereof mean "at least including".

[0023] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a perspective view of an inner-outer double shielding type short size contact box provided by an embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 is a structural view of an inner-outer double shielding type short size contact box provided by an embodiment of the present application. To achieve at least one of the above advantages or other advantages, an embodiment of the present application provides an inner-outer double shielding type short size contact box. As shown in the figure, the inner-outer double shielding type short size contact box includes an insulation structure 5, a conductor structure 1, a high voltage shielding structure 2, and a low voltage shielding structure 3.

[0024] The insulation structure 5 has an inner chamber. The insulation structure 5 is prepared from an insulating material, for example, an epoxy insulating material.

[0025] The conductor structure 1 is connected to the insulation structure 5 and is located in the inner chamber. The conductor structure 1 can be made of a metal material and can be a high-voltage conductor. Alternatively, the conductor structure 1 of the main circuit is cast inside the insulation structure 5, and the insulation structure 5 supports the conductor structure 1.

[0026] The high-voltage shielding structure 2 is arranged in the insulation structure 5 and is connected to the conductor structure 1.

[0027] The low-voltage shielding structure 3 is arranged in the insulation structure 5, and the high-voltage shielding structure 2 is closer to the conductor structure 1 than the low-voltage shielding structure 3, that is, the high-voltage shielding structure 2 is an inner shielding structure, and the low-voltage shielding structure 3 is an outer shielding structure. The low-voltage shielding structure 3 is used to connect to an external ground. Alternatively, the low-voltage shielding structure 3 is connected to a steel plate with an external ground potential.

[0028] Because the high-voltage shielding structure 2 is electrically connected to the conductor structure 1, the potential between the two is equal; the low-voltage shielding structure 3 is connected to the external ground, and the potential between the two is equal, thereby making the inter-phase voltage and the voltage to ground in the original structure, which is borne by the insulation structure 5 and the air gap together, all introduced into the insulation structure 5. In this way, the inter-phase voltage and the voltage to ground are all borne by the insulation structure 5 with good insulation performance, that is, by using the high-low voltage inner-outer double shielding structure, the electric field concentration part is introduced into the insulation structure 5 with high insulation strength, thereby avoiding the possibility of corona discharge in the air gap between adjacent contact boxes and between the contact box and the bending spacer under long-term operation, and the possibility of insulation failure. Moreover, the problem caused by using the bending spacer is avoided, and the problem that the side-phase contact box cannot complete its function alone and must be used together with the matching bending spacer to meet the insulation requirements is solved.

[0029] In the present embodiment, the annular groove 4 is arranged in the insulation structure 5 and extends along the radial depth direction, and the low-voltage shielding structure 3 is closer to the conductor structure 1 than the annular groove 4. The annular groove 4 can play the role of an umbrella skirt, increase the creepage distance, meet the standard requirements, and will not affect the shielding effect because it is arranged outside the high-voltage shielding structure 2 and the low-voltage shielding structure 3. Further, the number of annular grooves 4 is two, which are distributed on different sides of the insulation structure 5, so that the contact insertion depth is relatively small, which is beneficial to heat dissipation of the contact.

[0030] Considering that each phase contact box is used in pairs, namely, the upper contact box matched with the upper contact arm on the circuit breaker and the lower contact box matched with the lower contact arm on the circuit breaker, according to the structure and compartment requirements of the switch cabinet, it is required that the upper and lower contact boxes are separated by a steel plate, and the traditional contact box is arranged at a relatively far position due to the insulation requirement, which requires the size of the contact box to be increased. In order to solve the problem, the conductor structure 1 is controlled to be not in the same horizontal plane at the incoming line end and the outgoing line end, and the outgoing line end is formed with a certain height distance from the incoming line end, so as to solve the above problem.

[0031] Further, in order to completely shield the conductor structure 1, the high-voltage shielding structure 2 is in an elliptical shape, and the low-voltage shielding structure 3 is in an elliptical shape. Correspondingly, the middle core part of the contact box is also designed as an elliptical structure. Further, in order to facilitate the installation and splicing of the contact box, the outer edge of the insulation structure 5 is in a square structure.

[0032] In some embodiments, the inner-outer double shielding type short size contact box can be used in a 40.5kV switch cabinet.

[0033] In summary, the inner-outer double shielding type short size contact box provided by the utility model has the advantages that the insulation structure 5, the conductor structure 1, the high-voltage shielding structure 2 and the low-voltage shielding structure 3 are collocated and arranged, the high-voltage shielding structure 2 is electrically connected with the conductor structure 1, the potential between the two is equal, the low-voltage shielding structure 3 is connected with the external ground, the potential between the two is equal, and the phase-to-phase voltage and the phase-to-ground voltage originally borne by the insulation structure 5 and the air gap in the original structure are all introduced into the insulation structure 5. In this way, the phase-to-phase voltage and the phase-to-ground voltage are all borne by the insulation structure 5 with good insulation performance, so that the possibility of insulation failure under long-time operation can be avoided. Moreover, the problems caused by the use of the bent partition plate are avoided, and the problem that the side phase contact box cannot complete its function alone and must be used together with the matching bent partition plate to meet the insulation requirements is solved.

[0034] In addition, those skilled in the art should understand that although there are many problems in the prior art, each embodiment or technical solution of the utility model can only be improved in one or several aspects, and it is not necessary to solve all the technical problems listed in the prior art or background art at the same time.

[0035] Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not limited to them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that: it can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or make equivalent replacement to part or all of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
