Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power testing equipment technology, and in particular to a wire clamp for live testing of power equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Power equipment mainly includes two categories: power generation equipment and power supply equipment. After a period of use, power equipment needs to be tested regularly to ensure that it meets the requirements of relevant national and industry standards. Wire clamps are commonly used devices in live testing, used to fix and position wires, thereby enabling live testing of power equipment.
[0003] Common wire clamps include aluminum C-type clamps, which are generally made of aluminum alloy. During use, due to the significant difference in the coefficients of thermal expansion between aluminum and copper, when the clamp heats up, the aluminum expands and compresses the copper. This compression cannot be fully recovered after cooling. After prolonged operation, this repeated compression can create gaps on the contact surface, affecting the contact area and increasing the contact resistance. This leads to the generation of more heat, and under the continuous effect of thermal fatigue, the clamp will burn out or even break. Therefore, this application provides a wire clamp for live-line testing of power equipment to meet the requirements. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a wire clamp for live-line testing of power equipment to solve the problem that existing wire clamps are prone to thermal fatigue fracture.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A wire clamp for live-line testing of power equipment includes an outer clamping member. Inside the outer clamping member are a compensating movable clamping assembly and a movable clamping member. The compensating movable clamping assembly and the movable clamping member are movably engaged. A fastening bolt is located in the middle of the outer clamping member. The fastening bolt passes through the outer clamping member, the compensating movable clamping assembly, and the movable clamping member, and is connected to a fastening nut. A washer is fitted on the fastening bolt. The washer is located at the bottom of the fastening nut and contacts the compensating movable clamping assembly. The compensating movable clamping assembly includes a C-shaped fitting that mates with the movable clamping member. One side of the C-shaped fitting has a wire clamping member that mates with the outer clamping member. The wire clamping member and the C-shaped fitting are slidably engaged.
[0007] Optionally, the wire clamp includes a crescent-shaped head that contacts the wire, and a first square tail is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the crescent-shaped head. The upper and lower side walls of the first square tail are symmetrically provided with U-shaped grooves.
[0008] Optionally, a compensation protrusion is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped groove near the crescent head, and the compensation protrusion has an arched structure.
[0009] Optionally, the compensation protrusion has deformation holes on its sidewall, and the deformation hole structure is adapted to the compensation protrusion.
[0010] Optionally, guide grooves are provided at both ends of the compensating arch.
[0011] Optionally, a constraint groove is provided in the middle of the first square tail, and the constraint groove is an arc-shaped structure.
[0012] Optionally, the C-type mating part includes an arc-shaped head that mates with the compensating movable clamping assembly. The arc-shaped head is adapted to the end structure of the compensating movable clamping assembly, and a second square tail is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the arc-shaped head.
[0013] Optionally, the second square tail sidewall is provided with a mating groove, which has a T-shaped structure and is adapted to the first square tail.
[0014] Optionally, a clearance groove is provided in the middle of the arc-shaped head, the clearance groove having the same width as the deformation hole, and the clearance groove being adapted to the deformation hole.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0016] In the above solution, by setting up a compensating movable clamping assembly, the cooperation between the wire clamping component and the C-shaped mating component allows the length of the compensating movable clamping assembly to have a certain degree of flexibility. When the wire clamp clamps the wire tightly, the rigid cooperation between the wire clamping component and the C-shaped mating component makes the clamping of the wire relatively stable. When the wire clamp expands and deforms due to heat, the compensating movable clamping assembly can provide sufficient deformation space to avoid excessive compression of the wire after the wire clamp deforms, which would cause gaps in the contact surface and affect the service life of the wire clamp.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, an embodiment of this utility model provides a wire clamp for live-line testing of power equipment, including an outer clamping member 1. The outer clamping member 1 contains a compensating movable clamping assembly 2 and a movable clamping member 3, which are movably engaged. A fastening bolt 4 is located in the middle of the outer clamping member 1, passing through the outer clamping member 1, the compensating movable clamping assembly 2, and the movable clamping member 3, and is connected to a fastening nut 5. A washer 6 is fitted on the fastening bolt 4, located at the bottom of the fastening nut 5 and in contact with the compensating movable clamping assembly 2. The compensating movable clamping assembly 2 includes a C-shaped fit that mates with the movable clamping member 3. Part 8, on one side of the C-type mating part 8, is a wire clamping part 7 that mates with the outer clamping part 1. The wire clamping part 7 and the C-type mating part 8 are slidably engaged. By setting up a compensating movable clamping assembly 2, the engagement between the wire clamping part 7 and the C-type mating part 8 allows the length of the compensating movable clamping assembly 2 to have a certain degree of flexibility. When the wire clamp clamps the wire tightly, the rigid engagement between the wire clamping part 7 and the C-type mating part 8 makes the clamping of the wire relatively stable. When the wire clamp expands and deforms due to heat, the compensating movable clamping assembly 2 can provide sufficient deformation space to avoid excessive compression of the wire after the wire clamp deforms, which would cause gaps in the contact surface and affect the service life of the wire clamp.
[0032] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the wire clamp 7 includes a crescent-shaped head 9 that contacts the wire. A first square tail 10 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the crescent-shaped head 9. U-shaped grooves 11 are symmetrically formed on the upper and lower side walls of the first square tail 10. A compensation protrusion 12 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped groove 11 near the crescent-shaped head 9. The compensation protrusion 12 has an arched structure, and deformation holes 13 are formed on its side wall. The deformation holes 13 are adapted to the structure of the compensation protrusion 12. By setting the deformation holes 13, the compensation... An arched thin plate is formed between the protrusions 12, enabling the compensation protrusions 12 to deform. Guide grooves 14 are respectively provided at both ends of the arch of the compensation protrusions 12. By setting the guide grooves 14, a certain space is provided for the deformation of the compensation protrusions 12, avoiding the compensation protrusions 12 from being excessively squeezed and breaking. At the same time, it can also guide the deformation direction of the compensation protrusions 12, avoiding the gap between the wire clamping part 7 and the C-shaped mating part 8 caused by different deformation structures of the compensation protrusions 12, which would affect the stability of the wire clamping.
[0033] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the first square tail 10 has a constraint groove 19 in the middle. The constraint groove 19 has an arc-shaped structure. By setting the constraint groove 19, the fastening bolt 4 is embedded in the constraint groove 19 during use to constrain the first square tail 10 and prevent the first square tail 10 from sliding relative to the second square tail 16, thereby achieving the purpose of stable clamping. The C-type mating part 8 includes an arc-shaped head 15 that mates with the compensation movable clamping assembly 2. The arc-shaped head 15 is adapted to the end structure of the compensation movable clamping assembly 2. The second square tail 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the arc-shaped head 15. The side wall of the second square tail 16 has a mating groove 17. The mating groove 17 has a T-shaped structure and is adapted to the first square tail 10. The arc-shaped head 15 has a relief groove 18 in the middle. The relief groove 18 has the same width as the deformation hole 13 and is adapted to it.
[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In use, the compensating movable clamping assembly 2 and the movable clamping member 3 are respectively engaged with both ends of the outer clamping member 1. The fastening bolt 4 passes through the outer clamping member 1, the compensating movable clamping assembly 2, and the movable clamping member 3, and engages with the washer 6 and the fastening nut 5. The compensating movable clamping assembly 2 and the movable clamping member 3 are rotatably connected through the engagement of the fastening bolt 4. By rotating the fastening nut 5, the movement space of the compensating movable clamping assembly 2 and the movable clamping member 3 inside the outer clamping member 1 can be changed. When the wire... When the wire passes through the outer clamping member 1 and is located between the outer clamping member 1 and the compensating movable clamping component 2, or between the outer clamping member 1 and the movable clamping member 3, a triangular structure is formed between the outer clamping member 1, the compensating movable clamping component 2, and the movable clamping member 3. The fastening nut 5 is located at the top of the triangular structure. By rotating the fastening nut 5 to press down the top height of the triangular structure, the gap between the outer clamping member 1 and the compensating movable clamping component 2, and between the outer clamping member 1 and the movable clamping member 3, can be reduced, thereby clamping and fixing the wire located therein.
[0035] After the wire is clamped and fixed, the top of the compensation protrusion 12 abuts against the outer wall of the mating slot 17, and there is a certain gap between the bottom of the first square tail 10 and the bottom of the mating slot 17. When the wire and the clamp are heated and expanded, the arch of the compensation protrusion 12 decreases, and the gap between the bottom of the first square tail 10 and the bottom of the mating slot 17 shrinks.
[0036] This utility model encompasses any substitutions, modifications, equivalent methods, and solutions made within the spirit and scope of this utility model. To provide the public with a thorough understanding of this utility model, specific details are described in detail in the following preferred embodiments; however, those skilled in the art will fully understand this utility model even without these detailed descriptions. Furthermore, to avoid unnecessary confusion regarding the essence of this utility model, well-known methods, processes, procedures, components, and circuits are not described in detail.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
