Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an explosion-proof antenna safety isolator, belonging to the field of explosion-proof communication equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous advancement of science and technology and the continuous improvement of productivity, communication technology is ubiquitous in people's daily lives and industrial production. In areas with hazardous sources such as oil, coal, natural gas, and chemicals, the demand for wireless communication technology is increasing. To address the issue of wireless signal energy safety, we propose an explosion-proof antenna safety isolator. This isolator provides an intrinsically safe signal output for wireless signals. In the event of a fault in radio transmission or reception, it forms an isolation circuit to block the output of hazardous energy to areas with hazardous sources, ensuring the safe use of wireless signals in such areas. Furthermore, it allows for the installation and use of a wide range of passive antennas in these areas, and the antennas can be removed or installed while energized. This greatly facilitates the installation and maintenance of wireless equipment in hazardous areas, thereby reducing the costs of system integration, implementation, and maintenance. In the integration of explosion-proof communication systems, the problem of insufficient internal space within the explosion-proof enclosure is often encountered. Since the explosion-proof antenna safety isolator can be installed outside the explosion-proof enclosure without occupying internal space, it effectively solves this problem. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention proposes an explosion-proof antenna safety isolator. This isolator provides an intrinsically safe signal output for wireless signal applications in hazardous areas, ensuring the safe use of wireless signals in such environments. Simultaneously, structural optimization results in a smaller size and lighter weight, along with improved waterproof and dustproof performance. The addition of explosion-proof threads allows for installation on the outside of an explosion-proof enclosure, reducing the space required inside the explosion-proof communication equipment housing and thus significantly reducing the size and weight of the housing.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the explosion-proof antenna safety isolator of this utility model includes: a housing body, which includes a first connector housing portion, a second connector housing portion, an intermediate housing portion, and an explosion-proof threaded housing portion. The first connector housing portion and the second connector housing portion are respectively located at both ends of the intermediate housing portion and the explosion-proof threaded housing portion, and the four are integrated into one structure; a first inner conductor, which is disposed in a first cavity formed by the first connector housing portion and the explosion-proof threaded housing portion; a second inner conductor, which is disposed in a second cavity formed by the second connector housing portion; a circuit assembly, which is installed in a third cavity formed by the intermediate housing portion, and the first inner conductor and the second inner conductor are electrically connected to the circuit assembly; and a round cover, which is fixedly connected to the housing body.

[0005] In one embodiment, the first chamber, the second chamber, and the third chamber are connected together, the first inner conductor extends from the first chamber to the third chamber, and the second inner conductor extends from the second chamber to the third chamber.

[0006] In one embodiment, the first inner conductor and the second inner conductor are respectively connected to the two ends of the circuit assembly by welding and then potted with adhesive.

[0007] In one embodiment, a first insulator and a second insulator are respectively provided in the first chamber and the second chamber. The first insulator is located between the first inner conductor and the first connector housing and the explosion-proof threaded housing, and the second insulator is located between the second inner conductor and the second connector housing.

[0008] In one embodiment, a first sealing ring and a second sealing ring are provided between the lower surface of the dome and the upper surface of the outer shell body.

[0009] First, the explosion-proof antenna safety isolator of this invention is integrally molded with the connector housing, the explosion-proof threaded surface, and the main body of the explosion-proof antenna safety isolator, forming a single structure. This eliminates the connection interface between the connector, the explosion-proof threaded surface, and the main body of the explosion-proof antenna safety isolator in traditional technologies, avoiding the problem of water leakage at this interface and improving the waterproof performance of the explosion-proof antenna safety isolator. Second, due to the addition of the explosion-proof threaded surface, it can be directly connected and installed with the explosion-proof housing, greatly saving space inside the explosion-proof housing, thereby reducing the volume and weight of the explosion-proof housing and saving costs for the integration of explosion-proof communication systems. Finally, the explosion-proof antenna safety isolator of this invention has a sealing ring between the round cover and the main body of the housing, further improving the waterproof and dustproof effect of the entire explosion-proof antenna safety isolator.
