Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a power distribution transformer. Background Technology

[0002] A distribution transformer includes a transformer core, transformer coils sleeved around the transformer core, an upper clamping plate assembly located at the upper end of the transformer core, and a lower clamping plate assembly located at the lower end of the transformer core. In actual use, existing distribution transformers generate a large amount of heat during operation. Due to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, the transformer core is subjected to long-term pressure from the transformer core, causing the upper clamping plate assembly to loosen or shift. This leads to a failure in securing the transformer core. Loosening of the transformer core can cause winding displacement or deformation, and in severe cases, magnetic circuit imbalance, resulting in unstable internal operation of the transformer. Therefore, improvements and optimizations are proposed to address this issue. Utility Model Content
