Description

Portable short-circuit grounding wire clamp for busbar grounding Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a clamp, and more particularly to a portable short-circuit grounding clamp for busbar grounding. Background Technology

[0002] According to the "State Grid Corporation of China Power Safety Work Regulations" (Distribution Section), technical measures to ensure safety when working on distribution lines and equipment include power outages, voltage testing, grounding, hanging warning signs, and installing barriers (fences). When grounding, the grounding wire should be fixed to the conductor using a dedicated clamp, and the installed grounding wire should have good contact and reliable connection. With the construction and operation of numerous substations, distribution booths, and metering rooms, the frequency of portable grounding wires being grounded onto the "busbar" during power outages is increasing.

[0003] Currently, the clamps used for carrying grounding wires in power distribution outage operations typically include hook-type clamps or clamp-type clamps, which are widely used for conductor grounding. However, when these two types of clamps are used for busbar grounding, the contact surface is small, the installation is not secure, and they can fall off at any time. They cannot provide reliable closed grounding protection for the work area, posing a safety risk. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a portable short-circuit grounding wire clamp for busbar grounding that is securely installed, not easy to fall off, can ensure reliable grounding of the busbar, and ensure operational safety.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A portable short-circuit grounding wire clamp for busbar grounding includes a column. The upper part of the column has a square cross-section, and the lower part of the column is screw-shaped with a minor diameter greater than the diagonal length of the upper cross-section. A rectangular insertion hole is provided at the upper end of the column, and an upper clamping plate is fixedly inserted through the insertion hole. The upper clamping plate is L-shaped and arranged perpendicular to the column. The upper clamping plate and the column form a slot for clamping onto the busbar.

[0007] A lower clamping plate is fitted on the upper part of the column through a sliding clearance fit. The lower clamping plate is arranged parallel to the upper clamping plate and is used to clamp the busbar below. Two wiring screw holes are provided on the other end of the corresponding slot on the lower clamping plate for fixing the grounding wire terminal.

[0008] A threaded nut steel sleeve is connected to the lower part of the column. An insulating rod is coaxially connected to the lower end of the threaded nut steel sleeve. The upper end of the threaded nut steel sleeve abuts against the bottom surface of the lower clamping plate, which is used to push the lower clamping plate up and clamp the busbar.

[0009] As a further preferred option, several positioning grooves are evenly distributed on one side of the upper clamping plate, and a set screw is provided at the corresponding insertion hole on the column. The front end of the set screw is inserted into the corresponding positioning groove to fix the upper clamping plate.

[0010] As a further preferred embodiment, a screw hole is provided at the other end of the corresponding slot of the lower clamping plate in the vertical direction, and a support screw is screwed in. The support screw passes through the lower clamping plate and is used to adjust the upper clamping plate to clamp the busbar.

[0011] As a further preferred embodiment, the wire nut steel sleeve is inserted into the insulating rod and fixed by a pin.

[0012] As a further preferred embodiment, the lower clamping plate and the upper clamping plate are formed by die casting of aluminum alloy.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. The slot formed between the L-shaped upper clamp and the column facilitates the suspension and clamping of the clamp onto the busbar. The lower part of the column is connected to a threaded nut steel sleeve, with an insulating rod coaxially connected to the lower end of the nut steel sleeve. The upper end of the nut steel sleeve rests against the bottom surface of the lower clamp. By rotating the insulating rod, the nut steel sleeve pushes the lower clamp upwards, thus clamping the busbar between the lower and upper clamps. The structure is compact, the installation is secure, and it is not easy to fall off, ensuring reliable grounding of the busbar and guaranteeing operational safety.

[0015] 2. By providing a rectangular insertion hole at the upper end of the column and fixing an upper clamping plate through the insertion hole, the clamp can adjust the size of the slot formed by the upper clamping plate and the column according to the thickness of the busbar, thereby increasing the contact area between the clamp and the busbar and ensuring reliable grounding.
