Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to annular transformer technical field, concretely is a simple annular transformer fin. BACKGROUND

[0002] Annular transformer is usually a kind of high-performance, high-power power transformer, and the working temperature is high, and the load is large, especially the pouring annular transformer, which is more prone to overheating phenomenon. Since the performance and life of the transformer are affected by temperature, the heat dissipation problem of the annular transformer must be paid attention to.

[0003] However, the existing simple annular transformer fin still has some shortcomings in actual use: at present, the common heat dissipation modes of annular transformer include natural cooling, forced air cooling, oil cooling and the like, or increasing fins on the base to dissipate heat. Natural cooling does not need to use any external cooling equipment. This way has low cost, no additional energy consumption, but the heat dissipation effect is unstable, and the efficiency is not high, which is suitable for small power transformers. Forced air cooling refers to cooling the transformer by using a fan or cooler. This way has good heat dissipation effect and high efficiency, and is suitable for large power transformers, and needs additional energy support. Oil cooling refers to cooling the transformer by using an oil cooling system built-in or external to the transformer, which can effectively reduce the temperature of the transformer and improve the service life of the transformer, but the cost is high, the oil requirement is high, and the sealing and leakage prevention measures need to be done well, which is also used in medium and large transformers. Increasing the heat dissipation base or fin on the bottom of the small annular transformer increases the heat dissipation effect to a certain extent, but has the shortcomings of needing to reserve a position for installation and increasing the space occupation of the annular transformer.

[0004] Therefore, we design a simple annular transformer fin to solve the above problems. Utility model content

[0028] Please refer to Figure 2, the circular wave-shaped first radiating fin 3 is placed in the hole of the annular transformer body 1 and is fixed by heat-conducting glue or silicon grease, when the annular transformer body 1 works and emits heat, the heat is transmitted to each fold surface of the wave-shaped first radiating fin 3, the fold surfaces of the first radiating fin 3 evenly share the heat transmitted and dissipate the heat through the air hole surrounded by the first radiating fin 3, so that the heat dissipation effect is improved.

[0029] The first radiating fin 3 is made of aluminum sheet or aluminum alloy sheet which is easy to bend, the thickness of the sheet is not more than 1 mm, the width of the first radiating fin 3 is determined according to the hole height of the annular transformer body 1 and is less than or equal to the hole height of the annular transformer body 1, and the length of the first radiating fin 3 is determined according to the hole diameter of the annular transformer body 1 and is 2-4 times of the hole diameter of the annular transformer body 1.

[0032] Suppose that the hole diameter d of the annular transformer body 1 is 36 mm and the hole height h of the annular transformer body 1 is 40 mm, the length L and the width W of the raw material of the first radiating fin 3 are calculated and determined, here the hole height h is taken as the width of the raw material of the first radiating fin 3, that is, the width W of the sheet raw material is 40 mm, the length L1 of the sheet raw material is calculated, here the length L1 is 3 times of the hole diameter, that is, L1=3d=3*36=108 mm, according to the length and the width calculated and determined by the raw material of the metal, the corresponding rectangular sheet is cut out, the cut rectangular sheet is divided into eight equal parts, each part has a length L2=108 / 8=13.5 mm, and a mark line is made, refer to Figure 4 The eight-equal-part sheet is bent into a U-shaped according to the equal-part mark line, and the bending is made by manual bending or machine processing according to the hardness of the raw material of the metal, refer to Figure 5 The bent sheet is connected at the head and the tail to form a ring along the hole wall of the annular transformer body 1, and the ring-shaped first radiating fin 3 is placed in the hole of the annular transformer body 1 so that the top end of each fold surface is tightly attached to the inner wall of the hole of the annular transformer body 1.

[0033] Refer to Figure 2, the two fold surfaces of the first radiating fin 3 embedded in the center hole of the annular transformer body 1 form a V-shaped area with the inner wall of the annular transformer body 1, and form an inverse V-shaped area with the space of the center hole of the annular transformer body 1; the metal first radiating fin 3 forms a petal shape; at the joint of the first radiating fin 3 and the hole wall of the annular transformer body 1, evenly point the heat-conducting glue or the heat-dissipating silicone grease; after the heat-conducting glue or the silicone grease solidifies, the design and installation of the annular transformer body 1 are completed.

[0034] Referring to Figure 1 , the surface of the annular transformer body 1 is movably sleeved with a heat dissipation ring 6, the outer arc wall of the heat dissipation ring 6 is annularly arrayed with a plurality of second radiating fins 7, one side of the second radiating fin 7 is located in the inner cavity of the heat dissipation ring 6, the other side of the second radiating fin 7 is located on the outside of the heat dissipation ring 6, the inner cavity of the heat dissipation ring 6 is fixedly sleeved with a heat-conducting fin 8, and the heat-conducting fin 8 is attached to the outer surface of the annular transformer body 1.
