Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building lightning protection technology, specifically, to a novel building lightning protection device. Background Technology
[0002] Lightning protection devices for buildings are designed to protect buildings and their internal equipment from the effects of lightning strikes. Lightning can cause serious consequences such as fires, explosions, equipment damage, and communication disruptions, and can also pose a risk of electric shock to people inside buildings. Therefore, lightning protection for buildings is of great significance for protecting people's lives and property and maintaining social stability. In practical use, it has the advantages of simple operation, stable structure, and safe use.
[0003] The prior art discloses a building lightning protection device with application number CN201921160457.3. In this utility model, the base welded to the support column needs to be connected to the building by bolts. The base has a certain weight, making it difficult for operators to move the base by hand to match the mounting holes of the base with the pre-drilled holes in the building. This causes inconvenience to the installation of this utility model. At the same time, the connection ends of the down conductor and the grounding wire are exposed to the air. When foreign objects accidentally hook or pull on the connection ends of the down conductor and the grounding wire, it is easy to cause the down conductor and the grounding wire to separate from the connecting sleeve, reducing the practicality of this utility model.
[0004] No effective solutions have yet been proposed to address the problems in the relevant technologies. Utility Model Content

[0007] (II) Technical Solution
[0008] To achieve the advantages of easy base movement, effortless alignment of base mounting holes with pre-drilled holes in the building, and prevention of separation of the down conductor and grounding wire from the connecting sleeve due to accidental snags from external objects, the specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0009] A novel building lightning protection device includes a mobile box and a housing. A support column is welded to the upper part of the mobile box, and a lightning arrester is installed at the upper end of the support column. A lightning arrester ball is installed at the upper end of the lightning arrester, and a lightning rod is installed on the side wall of the lightning arrester ball. An equipotential bonding ring is sleeved on the side wall of the support column, and a terminal block is installed on the side wall of the support column. Ceramic sleeves are fixedly inserted through both sides of the housing. A connecting sleeve and four sets of insulating clamps are arranged inside the housing. Down conductors and grounding wires are respectively installed at both ends of the connecting sleeves. The down conductors and grounding wires pass through two sets of ceramic sleeves, and are connected to the terminal blocks. A grounding rod is installed at one end of the grounding wire. Two sets of mounting pipes are welded to both sides of the mobile box. An mounting cover is installed on the top surface inside the mobile box. Multiple sets of lead levers pass through the inner bottom surface of the housing and the lower part of the mounting cover via bearings. Each set of lead levers has a lead screw sleeve fitted onto its side wall, and each set of lead screw sleeves has a fixed connecting plate fitted onto its side wall. Two sets of support rods are installed at the lower part of each set of connecting plates. The lower ends of the two sets of support rods on the same side slide through the inner bottom surface of the movable box. Limit plates are installed at the lower ends of the two sets of support rods on the same side. Universal wheels are installed at the lower parts of each set of limit plates. Multiple sets of support tubes are installed at the lower part of the movable box. Extension shafts are installed at the upper ends of each set of lead levers via couplings, and driven gears are fitted onto the side walls of each set of extension shafts. A self-locking forward and reverse motor is installed at the lower part of the mounting cover, and a main gear is fixedly fitted onto the output end of the self-locking forward and reverse motor.
[0010] Furthermore, the main gear meshes with multiple sets of driven gears.
[0011] Furthermore, the multiple sets of said lead levers and the multiple sets of said lead screw threads cooperate with each other.
[0012] Furthermore, both the mobile box and the box body have sealing doors installed on their end faces via hinges.
[0013] Furthermore, the mobile box is equipped with a control panel and a battery. The control panel is electrically connected to the battery and a self-locking forward and reverse motor via wires.
[0014] Furthermore, the interior of the housing is equipped with four sets of positioning hole plates, and each of the four sets of positioning hole plates has a connecting screw that slides through it. Each of the four sets of connecting screws has two sets of connecting nuts fitted onto its side wall. Each of the four sets of positioning hole plates has two sets of T-shaped rods that slide through its upper part. One end of one set of connecting screws on the same side and one end of the two sets of T-shaped rods on the same side are fixedly connected to one set of insulating clamps on the same side.
[0015] Furthermore, the four sets of connecting screws and the eight sets of connecting nuts are threadedly engaged with each other.
[0016] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a novel building lightning protection device, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] (1) This utility model adopts an installation tube and casters. When using the new building lightning protection device, the control panel is used to make the self-locking forward and reverse motor work. The output end of the self-locking forward and reverse motor can drive the main gear to rotate. Since the main gear meshes with multiple sets of driven gears, the rotating main gear can drive multiple sets of driven gears to rotate. The rotating multiple sets of driven gears can drive multiple sets of lead levers to rotate through multiple sets of extension shafts. Since the multiple sets of lead levers and multiple sets of lead screw sleeves are threaded together, the rotating multiple sets of lead levers can push multiple sets of lead screw sleeves to move up or down. The multiple sets of lead screw sleeves can adjust the position of multiple sets of limit plates through multiple sets of support rods, thereby adjusting the force and height of the moving box. After that, the operator can use four sets of casters to move the moving box. The moving box can drive four sets of installation tubes to move. When the mounting pipes align with the pre-drilled holes on the building surface, the control panel is used to reverse the output of the self-locking forward and reverse motor, causing the moving box to gradually move downwards. When the four sets of mounting pipes and multiple sets of support pipes contact the building, expansion bolts can be used to connect the mounting pipes to the building. When lightning strikes the arrester, the high voltage of the intrusion is clipped, limiting the voltage passing through the arrester and ensuring that the down conductor can completely conduct the voltage. Multiple equalizing rings are used to balance stray capacitance to ground, making the voltage distribution uniform and preventing the down conductor from being broken down and damaged. The grounding wire and grounding rod discharge the lightning current to the ground. The mounting pipes and casters facilitate the movement of the base, making it easy to align the mounting holes of the base with the pre-drilled holes on the building, thus bringing convenience to the installation of new building lightning protection devices.
[0019] (2) This utility model adopts insulating clamps. Before actually using the new building lightning protection device, the operator moves the two sets of insulating clamps on the same side by hand. When the four sets of insulating clamps come into contact with the down conductor and the grounding wire, the four sets of connecting screws and eight sets of connecting nuts are used to cooperate with each other. The operator rotates the eight sets of connecting nuts clockwise and counterclockwise by hand. When the eight sets of connecting nuts come into contact with the four sets of positioning hole plates respectively, the four sets of insulating clamps will stably clamp the down conductor and the grounding wire. When there is a foreign object hooking the down conductor and the grounding wire, the presence of the four sets of insulating clamps can prevent the down conductor and the grounding wire from separating from the connecting sleeve. The eight sets of T-shaped rods can ensure the stability of the movement of the four sets of insulating clamps. By setting the insulating clamps, the separation of the down conductor and the grounding wire from the connecting sleeve due to accidental hooking by foreign objects can be avoided, thus improving the practicality of the new building lightning protection device.

[0030] The present invention will now be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, such as... Figure 1-5 As shown, a novel building lightning protection device according to an embodiment of this utility model includes a mobile box 1 and a box body 9. A support column 2 is welded to the upper part of the mobile box 1, and a lightning arrester 3 is installed at the upper end of the support column 2.

An mounting cover 15 is installed on the top surface inside the mobile box 1. Multiple sets of wire levers 1 pass through the bottom surface inside the mobile box 1 and the lower part of the mounting cover 15 via bearings. 6. Each of the multiple sets of lead screw levers 16 has a lead screw sleeve 17 fitted onto its side wall, and each of the multiple sets of lead screw sleeves 17 has a fixed connecting plate 18 fitted onto its side wall. Two sets of support rods 19 are installed at the lower part of each of the multiple sets of connecting plates 18. The lower ends of the two sets of support rods 19 on the same side slide through the inner bottom surface of the movable box 1. Limit plates 20 are installed at the lower ends of the two sets of support rods 19 on the same side. Universal wheels 21 are installed at the lower part of each of the multiple sets of limit plates 20. Multiple sets of support tubes 26 are installed at the lower part of the movable box 1. The upper end of each wire lever 16 is equipped with an extension shaft 24 via a coupling, and the side walls of multiple extension shafts 24 are fitted with driven gears 25. The lower part of the mounting cover 15 is equipped with a self-locking forward and reverse motor 22, and the output end of the self-locking forward and reverse motor 22 is fixedly fitted with a main gear 23. Through the installation tube 31 and universal wheels 21, the base can be moved easily, and the mounting holes of the base can be matched with the reserved holes of the building with ease, which brings convenience to the installation of new building lightning protection devices.
[0031] In one embodiment, the main gear 23 meshes with multiple sets of driven gears 25 to ensure that the main gear 23 can drive the multiple sets of driven gears 25 to rotate.
[0032] In one embodiment, multiple sets of lead levers 16 and multiple sets of lead screw sleeves 17 are threaded together to facilitate adjustment of the usage position of the multiple sets of lead screw sleeves 17.
[0033] In one embodiment, both the mobile box 1 and the box body 9 have sealing doors installed on their end faces via hinges.
[0034] In one embodiment, the mobile box 1 is equipped with a control panel and a battery. The control panel is electrically connected to the battery and the self-locking forward and reverse motor 22 via wires. The control circuit of the control panel can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art and is common knowledge in the art. It is only used and not modified, so the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.
[0035] In one embodiment, four sets of positioning hole plates 27 are installed inside the housing 9, and connecting screws 28 slide through the interior of each of the four sets of positioning hole plates 27. Two sets of connecting nuts 29 are sleeved on the side walls of each of the four sets of connecting screws 28. Two sets of T-shaped rods 30 slide through the upper part of each of the four sets of positioning hole plates 27. One end of one set of connecting screws 28 and one end of two sets of T-shaped rods 30 on the same side are fixedly connected to one set of insulating clamps 14 on the same side. The insulating clamps 14 prevent the separation of the down conductor 8 and the grounding conductor 11 from the connecting sleeve 12 due to accidental hooking by foreign objects, thus improving the practicality of the new building lightning protection device.
[0036] In one embodiment, the four sets of connecting screws 28 and the eight sets of connecting nuts 29 are threaded together to facilitate adjustment of the position of the eight sets of connecting nuts 29.
[0037] Working principle:
[0038] In actual use of the new building lightning protection device, the self-locking reversible motor 22 is activated via the control panel. The output of the self-locking reversible motor 22 drives the main gear 23 to rotate. Since the main gear 23 meshes with multiple sets of driven gears 25, the rotating main gear 23 can drive the multiple sets of driven gears 25 to rotate. The rotating multiple sets of driven gears 25 can drive the multiple sets of lead levers 16 to rotate via multiple sets of extension shafts 24. Since the multiple sets of lead levers 16 are threadedly engaged with multiple sets of lead screw sleeves 17, the rotating multiple sets of lead levers 16 can push the multiple sets of lead screw sleeves 17 to move up or down. The multiple sets of lead screw sleeves 17 can adjust the use of multiple sets of limit plates 20 via multiple sets of support rods 19. The position can be adjusted, thereby controlling the force and height of the movable box 1. Then, the operator can use four sets of casters 21 to move the movable box 1. The movable box 1 can drive the four sets of mounting pipes 31 to move. When the four sets of mounting pipes 31 correspond to the pre-drilled holes on the building surface, the output of the self-locking forward and reverse motor 22 is rotated in the opposite direction using the control panel, and the movable box 1 will gradually move downwards. When the four sets of mounting pipes 31 and multiple sets of support pipes 26 contact the building, expansion bolts can be used to complete the connection between the mounting pipes 31 and the building. When lightning strikes the surge arrester 3, the high voltage of the intrusion is clipped, limiting the voltage passing through the surge arrester 3, ensuring that the down conductor 8 can completely transmit the voltage. Multiple equalizing rings 6 are used to balance stray capacitance to ground, ensuring uniform voltage distribution and preventing damage to the down conductor 8. The grounding wire 11 and grounding rod 13 discharge lightning current to the ground. The mounting tube 31 and casters 21 facilitate the movement of the base, making it easy to align the mounting holes with the pre-drilled holes in the building. This provides convenience for the installation of the new building lightning protection device. Before actual use, the operator manually moves the two sets of insulating clamps 14 on the same side towards each other. When the four sets of insulating clamps 14 contact the down conductor 8 and grounding wire 11, the threads of the four sets of connecting screws 28 and eight sets of connecting nuts 29 engage. The operator rotates the eight sets of connecting nuts 29 clockwise and counterclockwise by hand. When the eight sets of connecting nuts 29 contact the four sets of positioning hole plates 27 respectively, the four sets of insulating clamps 14 stably clamp the down conductor 8 and the grounding wire 11. When foreign objects hook or pull on the down conductor 8 and the grounding wire 11, the presence of the four sets of insulating clamps 14 can prevent the down conductor 8 and the grounding wire 11 from separating from the connecting sleeve 12. The eight sets of T-shaped rods 30 can ensure the stability of the movement of the four sets of insulating clamps 14. By setting the insulating clamps 14, the separation of the down conductor 8 and the grounding wire 11 from the connecting sleeve 12 due to accidental hooking by foreign objects can be avoided, thus improving the practicality of the new building lightning protection device.
