Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of railway connecting line, specifically is 400 hour speed contact net special anti -fatigue electric connecting line. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the rapid development of high-speed railway technology, the train running speed is continuously improved, and the performance requirements of the contact net system are increasingly stringent. In the 400km / h high-speed railway contact net, the electric connecting line as a key component to ensure the continuity and stability of power transmission faces many unprecedented challenges.

[0003] At present, although the traditional contact net electric connecting line and its connecting process can basically meet the power transmission demand in the application of low-speed railway, many defects are gradually exposed when applied in the 400km / h high-speed working condition. According to the detection statistics of the electrification system of the contact net, 90% of the fractures of the electric connecting line occur at the connecting contact line side clamp port.

[0004] On the one hand, the dynamic contact force between the train pantograph and the contact net is greatly increased and fluctuates violently during high-speed operation, which makes the electric connecting line frequently bear high-intensity mechanical impact and vibration. The connection structure and material mechanical properties of the traditional electric connecting line are difficult to withstand such harsh working conditions, and problems such as loose connection, accelerated wear and even fracture are prone to occur at the connection part. The existing electric connecting line has the problem of broken strands at the work support contact line side. Through analysis, the cyclic stress generated by the vibration when the motor train pantograph passes and the tensile stress it bears are the direct causes of the strand fatigue fracture.

[0005] On the other hand, the current carrying requirement of the 400km / h contact net is significantly improved, and the electric connecting line of the traditional electric connecting line will produce a large amount of electric energy loss and heating phenomenon during the long-time transmission of large current. This not only reduces the energy utilization efficiency, but also accelerates the aging and damage of the electric connecting line and its surrounding components due to the high temperature, shortens the service life of the entire contact net system, and increases the maintenance cost and operation risk.

[0006] Therefore, in order to meet the demand of safe, efficient and stable operation of 400km / h high-speed railway contact net, it is urgent to develop a new type of electric connecting line with high fatigue resistance, high mechanical strength, excellent electrical conductivity and adaptability to high-speed dynamic working conditions.

[0019] the electrical connection wire allows a continuous current carrying capacity of ≧560 A.

[0020] It is further characterized in that:
