Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transformer technology, and in particular to a high-temperature resistant transformer. Background Technology

[0002] A transformer is an electrical device that uses the principle of electromagnetic induction to change alternating current voltage. It consists of main components such as an iron core and windings, and often includes auxiliary components such as an oil tank, oil conservator, insulating bushings, and tap changers. The main functions of a transformer include voltage transformation, current transformation, impedance transformation, isolation, and voltage stabilization. In power systems, transformers are used not only to boost voltage to reduce transmission losses but also to reduce voltage to meet the power demands of different applications.

[0003] The core of a transformer is typically made of laminated silicon steel sheets and is the main component of its magnetic circuit. The windings are the electrical part of the transformer, made of insulated flat wire or enameled round wire. Transformers achieve voltage transformation through the turns ratio of the windings. When alternating current passes through the primary winding, it generates an alternating magnetic flux in the core, which in turn induces a voltage in the secondary winding.

[0004] Current transformers use fans to cool themselves down. However, conventional transformer fans typically operate at standard power. Even with power adjustments, using only a single fan for air cooling means that the cooling effect of a single fan is still limited and cannot achieve rapid cooling of the transformer under sustained high temperatures.

[0005] Therefore, a high-temperature resistant transformer is proposed to solve or alleviate the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a high-temperature resistant transformer.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A high-temperature resistant transformer includes a base frame, several iron core windings mounted on the base frame, a heat-conducting sleeve fixedly connected to the base frame and fitted around the outer ring of the iron core windings, and several fan units fixedly connected to the base frame. The base frame has a flow channel communicating with the heat-conducting sleeve, and the fan units guide air into the flow channel. The transformer also includes a temperature control circuit coupled to the fan units. The temperature control circuit collects the temperature of the iron core windings and controls the operation of the fan units.

[0009] Preferably, the inner wall of the heat-conducting sleeve abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the iron core winding, and an air passage communicating with the flow channel is formed between the inner wall of the heat-conducting sleeve and the outer peripheral wall of the iron core winding.

[0010] Preferably, the temperature control circuit includes

[0011] A temperature sensor, which collects the temperature of the iron core winding and outputs a temperature signal;

[0012] A multi-stage voltage comparison circuit is provided, wherein the output terminal of the temperature sensor is coupled to the input terminal of the multi-stage voltage comparison circuit, and the multi-stage voltage comparison circuit receives the temperature signal, compares it within multiple threshold intervals, and outputs the corresponding comparison signal.

[0013] The control circuit has its output terminal coupled to the input terminal of the multi-stage voltage comparison circuit. The output terminal of the control circuit is coupled to each wind turbine unit through various switching circuits. In response to the corresponding comparison signal, the control circuit controls the switching circuit coupled to the corresponding wind turbine unit to be energized.

[0014] Preferably, the plurality of fan units include a first fan unit, a second fan unit, a third fan unit, a fourth fan unit, a fifth fan unit, and a sixth fan unit, and the plurality of switching circuits include a first switching circuit, a second switching circuit, a third switching circuit, a fourth switching circuit, a fifth switching circuit, and a sixth switching circuit.

[0015] Preferably, the control circuit includes an integrated circuit of an STM32F103RCT6 embedded microcontroller.

[0016] Preferably, the first switching circuit, the second switching circuit, the third switching circuit, the fourth switching circuit, the fifth switching circuit, and the sixth switching circuit all include transistor switching circuits.

[0017] Preferably, the multi-stage voltage comparison circuit includes a first voltage comparator, a second voltage comparator, a third voltage comparator, a fourth voltage comparator, a fifth voltage comparator, and a sixth voltage comparator. The output terminals of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth voltage comparators are all coupled to the output terminal of the control circuit. The negative input terminals of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth voltage comparators are all coupled to the output terminal of the temperature sensor. The positive input terminals of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth voltage comparators are connected to resistor groups of different resistance values ​​before being powered on.

[0018] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] In practical application, the temperature sensor equipped with this invention can monitor the temperature change of the iron core winding in real time through its probe and convert the detected temperature data into an electrical signal output. This electrical signal is then sent to a multi-stage voltage comparison circuit, which contains six voltage comparators in successive stages. The negative input terminal of each comparator receives this temperature signal, while the positive input terminal is connected to a group of resistors with different resistance values ​​to form its own unique threshold. Thus, when the temperature signal passes through these comparators with different threshold values, it will output a corresponding comparison signal according to its value. These comparison signals are then transmitted to the control circuit, which issues corresponding control commands based on the received signals. These commands are transmitted to the first to sixth switching circuits through the output terminal of the control circuit, thereby triggering the start of the corresponding first to sixth fan units to achieve the cooling function. Since the threshold values ​​of the voltage comparators are set incrementally, the fan units will start sequentially in a preset order, ensuring a gradual enhancement of the cooling process. As the fan units start one by one, they will guide the airflow through the flow channel and then through the air passage to effectively remove the heat generated by the iron core winding. This process not only improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the transformer, but also achieves rapid cooling, ensuring the stable operation of the transformer in high-temperature environments.

[0031] A high-temperature resistant transformer, such as Figure 1As shown, the device includes a base frame 1, several iron core windings mounted on the base frame 1, a heat-conducting sleeve 2 fixedly connected to the base frame 1 and fitted around the outer ring of the iron core windings, and several fan units fixedly connected to the base frame 1. The base frame 1 has a flow channel communicating with the heat-conducting sleeve 2. The fan units guide air into the flow channel. The inner wall of the heat-conducting sleeve 2 abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the iron core windings. An air passage communicating with the flow channel is formed between the inner wall of the heat-conducting sleeve 2 and the outer peripheral wall of the iron core windings. The device also includes a temperature control circuit, which is coupled to the fan units. The temperature control circuit collects the temperature of the iron core windings and controls the operation of the fan units.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the temperature control circuit includes a temperature sensor 9, a multi-stage voltage comparison circuit 10, and a control circuit 11.

[0033] Temperature sensor 9 collects the temperature of the iron core winding and outputs a temperature signal; the output terminal of temperature sensor 9 is coupled to the input terminal of multi-stage voltage comparison circuit 10. After receiving the temperature signal, multi-stage voltage comparison circuit 10 compares it within multiple threshold intervals and outputs the corresponding comparison signal; the output terminal of multi-stage voltage comparison circuit 10 is coupled to the input terminal of control circuit 11. The output terminal of control circuit 11 is coupled to each fan unit through various switching circuits. After responding to the corresponding comparison signal, control circuit 11 controls the switching circuit coupled to the corresponding fan unit to be energized; several fan units include first fan unit 3, second fan unit 4, third fan unit 5, fourth fan unit 6, fifth fan unit 7, and sixth fan unit 8; several switching circuits include first switching circuit 12, second switching circuit 13, third switching circuit 14, fourth switching circuit 15, fifth switching circuit 16, and sixth switching circuit 17; control circuit 11 includes an STM32F103RCT6 embedded microcontroller integrated circuit; the first switching circuit... Switching circuits 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17 all include transistor switching circuits. The multi-stage voltage comparison circuit 10 includes a first voltage comparator, a second voltage comparator, a third voltage comparator, a fourth voltage comparator, a fifth voltage comparator, and a sixth voltage comparator. The outputs of all six voltage comparators are coupled to the output of the control circuit 11. The negative inputs of all six voltage comparators are coupled to the output of the temperature sensor 9. The positive inputs of all six voltage comparators are connected to resistor groups of different resistance values ​​before being powered on.

[0034] In practical application, the temperature sensor 9 can detect the temperature of the iron core winding through its probe, and outputs a temperature signal. This temperature signal is sent to the multi-stage voltage comparison circuit 10. The negative input terminals of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth voltage comparators in the multi-stage voltage comparison circuit 10 can receive the temperature signal. Since the positive input terminals of the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth voltage comparators are connected to resistor groups of different resistance values, the threshold values ​​of each voltage comparator are different. The temperature signal is then compared within multiple threshold ranges, and a corresponding comparison signal is output. After the corresponding comparison signal is sent to the control circuit 11, the control circuit 11 can output a corresponding control signal. The signal is coupled from the output terminal of the corresponding control circuit 11 and then sent to the first switch circuit 12, the second switch circuit 13, the third switch circuit 14, the fourth switch circuit 15, the fifth switch circuit 16, or the sixth switch circuit 17. This causes the first fan group 3, the second fan group 4, the third fan group 5, the fourth fan group 6, the fifth fan group 7, or the sixth fan group 8 to start working. Since the threshold values ​​of the first voltage comparator, the second voltage comparator, the third voltage comparator, the fourth voltage comparator, the fifth voltage comparator, and the sixth voltage comparator increase step by step, the first fan group 3, the second fan group 4, the third fan group 5, the fourth fan group 6, the fifth fan group 7, and the sixth fan group 8 can work one by one. This allows the fan group to guide air into the flow channel and then blow it through the air channel, so that the heat on the iron core winding is carried away by the air, thereby completing the rapid cooling of the transformer.

[0035] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
