[0003] 362kV voltage level is commonly used in North America, unlike the domestic tank type circuit breaker which mostly adopts welded tank body, the cast tank body is mostly adopted in North America. The design of the cast tank body is more strict than the welded tank body, and needs to ensure that the tank body structure can withstand 5 times the design pressure of the damage internal pressure, and ensure that the tank body itself has sufficient strength to break the necessary unit of the circuit breaker. In order to ensure that the tank body can withstand greater internal pressure, the general measures are to reduce the tank body hand hole and increase the tank body thickness. Therefore, the general cast tank type circuit breaker tank body is heavy and difficult to assemble. SUMMARY

[0018] As Figures 1-3 shown, the tank body structure for 362kV tank-type circuit breaker proposed in the embodiment comprises a main cylinder 1 and a flange assembly.
[0019] The main cylinder 1 is provided with butt joints at both axial ends, and each of the front and rear sides is provided with one mounting hand hole 4, and the two mounting hand holes 4 are distributed in a staggered manner. The mounting hand hole 4 is provided with a wire hole in the front, which is used for checking the installation of internal elements during installation, and the cover plate is used for sealing after installation. The main cylinder 1 is provided with two groups of support connection assemblies at the bottom. The support connection assembly comprises two support plate parts 5 distributed side by side, and a plurality of connecting holes are arranged on both sides of the support plate part 5, for example, two connecting holes can be arranged on each side of the support plate part 5. Each support plate part 5 is connected with one transition support frame 8, and the transition support frame 8 is provided with a through hole corresponding to the connecting hole. By passing the bolt through the through hole and the connecting hole and screwing the nut on the other side, the support plate part 5 can be installed on the transition support frame 8, so that the assembly of the tank body structure is more simple. The four transition support frames 8 are connected with the four corresponding support plate parts 5, which can effectively support the entire tank body structure. The transition support frame 8 is connected with the external base, and is installed on the base.
[0020] The flange assembly comprises a butt flange 2 arranged at the butt joint and two inclined straight flanges 3 integrally communicated with the upper part of the main cylinder 1. The butt flange 2 is provided with a circular through hole for butt joint with other functional components in the circuit breaker. The inclined straight flange 3 comprises a straight cylinder part communicated with the main cylinder 1 and a flange part connected to the outer end of the straight cylinder part, and the straight cylinder part is smoothly connected with the main cylinder 1. The flange part is provided with a circular through hole for butt joint with other functional components in the circuit breaker. The two inclined straight flanges 3 are adjacent to two installation hand holes 4 respectively. The two inclined straight flanges 3 are gradually inclined to one side of the adjacent butt joint from bottom to top, and the axial angle between the inclined straight flange 3 and the main cylinder 1 is 10-15°.
[0021] In order to improve the structural strength of the whole tank structure, the following design is made: a plurality of reinforcing ribs 6 are uniformly arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the axial both ends of the main cylinder 1 around the center axis, and the reinforcing ribs 6 abut against the butt flange 2. The outer surface of the communication part between the inclined straight flange 3 and the main cylinder 1 is provided with a thickened reinforcing part 7, and the thickened reinforcing part 7 comprises a rib part. The thickened reinforcing part 7 increases the thickness of the part, so that the tank can withstand 5 times the design pressure of the destructive internal pressure, and the strength of the tank is ensured.
