Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable accessories technology, and in particular to a novel copper tail tube for GIS terminals. Background Technology
[0002] As a key power transmission and distribution equipment in modern power systems, GIS is widely used in important power facilities such as substations and power plants due to its high reliability, high safety, and compact structural design. GIS effectively reduces the equipment footprint and significantly improves the overall operational stability of the power system by enclosing high-voltage components such as circuit breakers, disconnectors, grounding switches, current transformers, voltage transformers, and busbars in a metal shell filled with insulating gas. In the structure of GIS terminals, copper tail tubes are an indispensable component, mainly used to achieve a reliable grounding connection between the cable's metal sheath and the GIS equipment shell, and to protect the cable's main insulation from external environmental influences.
[0003] However, existing copper tail tubes still have some shortcomings and areas for improvement in practical use. Most existing copper tail tubes are connected by bolts during installation and connection, resulting in long connection time and low assembly efficiency. At the same time, the overall electromagnetic shielding performance needs to be improved during use. Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a new type of copper tail tube for GIS terminals to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

By setting a connection structure, during use, after the end of the connection end is engaged with the flange, one end of the four connecting buckles is lifted. Under the action of the hinge, the spring inside the placement hole is stretched, so that one end of the connecting buckle is high and the other end is low. Then, by snapping the lower end onto the end side wall of the connection end, the connection and positioning process is completed, improving the overall connection and installation efficiency.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a novel copper tail tube for a GIS terminal, comprising a rear tube, an intermediate tube connected to the front side of the rear tube, a front tube structure connected to the front end of the intermediate tube, a plurality of notches provided on the front edge of the side wall of the front tube structure, a connecting structure fixedly connected to the rear side of the rear tube, and a grounding block fixedly connected to the center of the upper end face of the rear tube.

[0007] By using the above technical solution and setting a connection structure, when in use, after the end of the connection end is engaged with the flange, one end of the four connecting buckles is lifted. Under the action of the hinge, the spring inside the placement hole is stretched, so that one end of the connecting buckle is high and the other end is low. Then, by snapping the lower end onto the end side wall of the connection end, the connection and positioning process is completed, improving the overall connection and installation efficiency.

[0010] Furthermore, a through hole is provided at the upper end of the center of one side wall of the grounding block;
[0011] The above technical solution facilitates grounding connection.
[0012] Furthermore, the corrugated ring is made of alternating layers of aluminum foil;

[0014] Furthermore, the outer layer, middle layer, and inner layer are made of corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy, copper, and silver-plated copper, respectively.
[0015] Through the above technical solutions, corrosion-resistant aluminum alloys can provide mechanical protection and resistance to environmental corrosion, copper achieves a balance between high strength and conductivity through rolling composite process, and silver-plated copper ensures low contact resistance.
[0016] Furthermore, the lower end of the grounding block is welded to the side wall of the rear tube;
