Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of transformer vibration testing technology, and in particular relates to an auxiliary device for transformer core vibration testing. Background Technology

[0002] A power transformer is a static high-voltage electrical device. Its internal iron core vibrates under the influence of an electromagnetic field, and also vibrates due to magnetostriction caused by changes in excitation current. However, under overload or excitation faults, the transformer core will exhibit abnormal vibrations with increased amplitude and frequency. Severe abnormal vibrations can lead to winding deformation, inter-turn insulation wear, component overheating, and loosening of core clamps. Therefore, regular vibration testing of the transformer core is crucial.

[0003] Currently, while existing testing equipment can basically complete core vibration tests, it has the following drawbacks in use: 1. For vibration tests on large transformer cores, a large-sized testing frame is required. One existing installation method is to hoist the testing frame and then cover it entirely onto the core under test. This method is prone to collisions during installation and poses significant safety hazards. Another existing method involves disassembling the hoisting components of the testing frame and then reassembling them. This method is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and increases transportation and labor costs. 2. When long-term testing is required, the transformer core is prone to displacement due to vibration, causing the vibration sensor to not fit properly with the core under test, resulting in inaccurate test data. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the problems of inconvenience during installation and the tendency for the tested iron core to shift in existing testing devices as described in the background art, this utility model proposes the following technical solution:

[0008] Furthermore, each set of the moving components includes: a positioning plate, two guide posts, an adjusting screw, a moving plate, a first elastic element, and a caster wheel; the positioning plate is fixedly mounted on the wide surface of the side baffle, and the guide posts are respectively fixedly mounted on both sides of the wide surface of the positioning plate; one end of the adjusting screw passes through the surface of the positioning plate and abuts against the wide surface of the moving plate; the wide surface of the moving plate away from the positioning plate is fixedly connected to one end of the elastic element, and the other end of the first elastic element is fixedly connected to the fixed end of the caster wheel.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this patent.

[0017] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an auxiliary device for transformer core vibration testing according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0018] Reference Figure 1 An auxiliary device for transformer core vibration testing according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a stabilizing frame 1, a moving assembly 2, multiple sensors 3, and a protective assembly 4. The stabilizing frame 1 has a limiting cavity 6 that matches the core 5 to be tested. Multiple sensors 3 are fixedly mounted on the outer circumferential surface of the stabilizing frame 1. Each group of moving assemblies 2 is respectively located on one of the opposite wide surfaces of the stabilizing frame 1, and the moving assemblies 2 are symmetrically distributed about the core 5 to be tested. The protective assembly 4 is rotatably mounted on one of the narrow surfaces of the stabilizing frame 1 to prevent the core 5 to be tested from dislodging from the limiting cavity 6 during the vibration test.

[0019] Specifically, the stabilizing frame 1 includes two side baffles 11, multiple connecting plates 12, and side rails 13. Each side baffle 11 is parallel to each other and connected to each other via connecting plates 12 to form a portal frame-like structure. Each connecting plate 12 is fixedly connected at both ends to the narrow side of one of the side baffles 11, and each connecting plate 12 is perpendicular to each side baffle 11. The connecting plates 12 are spaced apart between the side baffles 11, and the sensor 3 passes through the surface of the connecting plate 12 into the limiting cavity 6. Preferably, in one embodiment, the sensor 3 is mounted on the surface of the connecting plate 12 located at the center line. In other embodiments, the sensor 3 is mounted on the surface of each connecting plate 12. The sensor 3 is detachably mounted on the connecting plate 12 via a threaded connection. Before vibration testing, the operator can adjust the depth of the sensor 3 entering the limiting cavity 6 by twisting the sensor 3, thereby ensuring that the sensor 3 abuts against the iron core 5 under test during each vibration test. Each sensor 3 is connected to a computing device, and each sensor 3 is distributed on various surfaces of the iron core 5 under test to balance the data collected by each sensor 3.

[0020] Figure 2 This is a side view of an auxiliary device for transformer core vibration testing according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 for Figure 2 A magnified structural diagram of part A in the middle.

[0021] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The protective component 4 includes a rotating base 41, a limiting joint 42, and a magnetic element 43. The rotating base 41 includes a first part 411 and a second part 412 that are rotatably connected. Both the first part 411 and the second part 412 are plate-shaped. The limiting joint 42 is fixedly provided on the surface of the first part 411, and the connecting shaft between the first part 411 and the second part 412 is fixedly provided on the narrow surface of the side baffle 11. Furthermore, a magnetic element 43 is fixedly provided on the narrow surface of each side baffle 11. The limiting joint 42 is located on the side of the first part 411 away from the second part 412, and the second part 412 is fixedly provided on one of the connecting plates 12. The magnetic element 43 is a magnetic block such as a magnet, and the fixed connection between the second part 412 and the connecting plate 12 is by welding or similar methods.

[0022] In one embodiment, the rotating seat 41 is a hinge plate, and the first part 411 and the second part 412 are respectively one of the hinge plates of the hinge plate. The connecting shaft between the first part 411 and the second part 412 is a pin. During vibration testing, the operator rotates the first part 411 to bring the limiting joint 42 into contact with one of the narrow faces of the iron core 5 under test. At this time, the magnetic element 43 is attracted to one side of the narrow face of the stabilizer 1 by magnetic force, thereby stabilizing the connection between the rotating seat 41 and the stabilizer 1, and ensuring that the iron core 5 under test in the limiting cavity 6 will not shift within the limiting cavity 6. Furthermore, in order to avoid interference of the limiting joint 42 with the vibration test, in another embodiment, the end of the limiting joint 42 is also provided with an insulating sleeve made of rubber or other materials.

[0023] Specifically, each movable assembly 2 includes: a positioning plate 21, two guide posts 22, an adjusting screw 23, a movable plate 25, and a first elastic element. The positioning plate 21 is fixedly mounted on the wide surface of the side baffle 11, and a guide post 22 is fixedly mounted on each side of the positioning plate 21. Each guide post 22 is parallel to each other, and the side of each guide post 22 away from the positioning plate 21 extends through the movable plate 25. The movable plate 25 is movably mounted on the guide posts 22, and the movable plate 25 is parallel to the positioning plate 21. The surface of the movable plate 25 has through holes 241 that match the guide posts 22, and the wide surface of the movable plate 25 away from the positioning plate 21 is fixedly connected to one end of the first elastic element. The other end of the first elastic element is fixedly connected to the fixed end of the caster wheel 26. One end of the adjusting screw 23 passes through the surface of the positioning plate 21 and abuts against the surface of the moving plate 25. By adjusting the distance between the adjusting screw 23 and the moving plate 25, the height difference between the caster wheel 26 and the end of the side baffle 11 can be changed.

[0024] Before conducting the vibration test, the operator first places the stabilizer 1 on the outer periphery of the iron core 5 to be tested, and then rotates the first part 411 so that the first part 411 is magnetically fixed to the narrow surface of one side of the two side baffles 11, thereby limiting the iron core 5 to be tested inside the limiting cavity 6. After ensuring that each sensor 3 is in contact with the surface of the iron core 5 to be tested, the vibration test begins. During this process, each sensor 3 is in contact with the iron core 5 to be tested, thereby further limiting the position of the iron core 5 to be tested.

[0025] In summary, this utility model, through a frame structure composed of a stabilizing frame and protective components, can quickly form a protective structure on the new outer periphery of the iron core under test before vibration testing, thereby stabilizing the state of the iron core under test during vibration testing.
