Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of insulator technology, specifically to an anti-deflection insulator for power transmission lines. Background Technology

[0002] Silicone rubber composite insulators are widely used in power transmission lines due to their light weight, small size, and excellent hydrophobicity. As a crucial component of high-voltage transmission systems, the performance stability and reliability of composite insulators are vital to the safe operation of the power grid. In recent years, strong winds have increasingly highlighted the deformation and cracking problems of composite insulator skirts. This not only leads to a shortened creepage distance and distorted electric field distribution, but also further affects their electrical performance. Under the combined effects of frost and dew, localized cracks are highly susceptible to arcing, which can cause wider equipment damage and even lead to transmission system failure.

Multiple sets of these combinations are distributed on the umbrella skirt cover to form the umbrella skirt cover structure. The umbrella ribs on the rib structure 2 are distributed in the following order: large ribs, small ribs, medium ribs, and small ribs are distributed alternately along the axial direction of the core rod 1. That is, a combination of large ribs, small ribs, medium ribs, and small ribs is a group, and multiple sets of these combinations are distributed on the umbrella ribs to form the umbrella rib structure. The large umbrella skirt is fitted on the large umbrella rib, the small umbrella skirt is fitted on the small umbrella rib, and the medium umbrella skirt is fitted on the medium umbrella rib.

[0029]

[0030]

[0031] Compared with existing technologies, the downward tilt angle of the large umbrella skirt of this anti-bending insulator is different from that of ordinary insulators. The downward tilt angle of ordinary insulators varies between 1° and 6°, while the downward tilt angle of the large umbrella skirt of this insulator is a negative angle. This structural change can significantly improve the insulator's anti-bending ability. In addition, a glass fiber rib structure is added inside the umbrella skirt, which further enhances the anti-bending ability and can effectively solve the tearing problem caused by umbrella skirt deformation, thereby improving the anti-bending performance of the umbrella skirt.

[0032] This paper constructs a finite element model and conducts simulation comparisons of insulators with added umbrella ribs for deflection resistance, deflection-resistant insulators, and ordinary insulators. The results show that the ordinary insulator achieves a skirt deflection of 33.7 mm at a wind speed of 40 m / s (see appendix). Figure 4 The anti-deflection insulator with a negative downslope angle has a deflection of 6.2 mm under the same influencing factors (see Appendix). Figure 5 The deformation was reduced by 81.6%, and the anti-bending ability was significantly improved. The anti-bending insulator with a negative downslope angle and added ribs showed a skirt deflection of only 0.85mm under the same influencing factors (see Appendix). Figure 6 The deformation is reduced by 97.5% compared to ordinary insulators, and the resistance to deflection is further improved. This can solve the problems of decreased electrical performance and power transmission system failure caused by the deformation and tearing of the sheds of composite insulators.
