Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of anti-loosening devices for the end screen of high-voltage bushings, and in particular to an anti-loosening device for the end screen of high-voltage bushings. Background Technology
[0002] In power systems, high-voltage bushings, as critical equipment, play a vital role in guiding high-voltage current into and out of transformers, switchgear, and other electrical equipment. The stability of their operation directly affects the safe and reliable operation of the entire power system. Reliable grounding of the high-voltage bushing's end-screen connector is a crucial link in ensuring normal equipment operation and personnel safety. End-screen grounding effectively releases accumulated static charge on the bushing, preventing serious faults such as partial discharge and insulation breakdown caused by static electricity accumulation, thereby preventing equipment damage or even power accidents. This is of great significance for the stable power supply of the power system. In past practices of power equipment operation monitoring and maintenance, to achieve real-time monitoring of the high-voltage bushing's operating status, it is often necessary to install online bushing monitoring devices. The installation process of this device involves additional electrical connection operations at the end-screen connector. Specifically, on-site personnel use wires with plug-in connectors, plug them into the end-screen connector, and then extend and reliably ground the wires to establish an electrical path between the online monitoring device and the end screen. This allows for the collection of relevant electrical parameters of the end screen, such as dielectric loss factor and capacitance value, thereby enabling real-time assessment of the bushing's insulation status.
[0003] However, this traditional connection method has revealed a serious problem that urgently needs to be addressed during actual operation. High-voltage bushings inevitably vibrate due to various factors during operation. These vibrations may originate from the operation of the power equipment itself, such as the magnetostrictive vibration of the transformer core or the vibration of the cooling system's fans; they may also come from the external environment, such as the vibration of nearby equipment or the transmission of mechanical vibrations from transportation. Under continuous vibration, the connection points that were originally tightly connected by the bushings will gradually loosen. As operating time progresses, the loosening between the bushing and the end-screen connector will intensify. This loosening is not obvious; its occurrence is relatively hidden and difficult to detect in a timely manner through routine visual inspection by relevant personnel. Once the connection becomes loose, it will lead to poor grounding of the end screen, resulting in a series of serious consequences.
[0004] Utility model patent CN211086402U discloses an anti-loosening assembly structure for a high-voltage bushing end screen adapter, including a bushing body and an end screen adapter. The end screen adapter is screwed onto the bushing body by rotation. A flange is connected to the outer shell of the end screen adapter, and an anti-loosening support is detachably connected to the flange. The support direction of the anti-loosening support is perpendicular to the central axis of the end screen adapter, and the base portion of the anti-loosening support abuts against or is fixedly connected to the base portion of the bushing body. Although this utility patent achieves anti-loosening, it cannot adaptively fix the end screen according to the vibration amplitude.
[0005] Therefore, providing an anti-loosening device that can adaptively adjust according to the vibration amplitude is an urgent problem to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0015] As a preferred technical solution, the device further includes a limiting sleeve, which is installed in the outer casing and connected to the base of the end screen chamber of the sleeve.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0029] This invention addresses the common problem of loosening of the connector between the sleeve and the end screen, which prevents the dynamic maintenance of a secure connection. This invention provides an anti-loosening device for the end screen of a high-voltage bushing. The device forms an elastic pre-tightening system between the outer sleeve end screen unit, the conductive rod, and the anti-loosening unit. The conductive rod transmits vibrations of the end screen unit, and the anti-loosening unit dynamically adapts to changes in the conductive rod's displacement, ensuring consistent and reliable contact among the three components. The invention incorporates an anti-loosening spring. When the top cover connects to the outer sleeve, the anti-loosening spring generates an initial pre-tightening force. During vibration, the anti-loosening spring automatically fills any loosening gaps and limits excessive displacement of the conductive rod, allowing for minor elastic compensation. The elastic characteristics of the anti-loosening spring enable it to respond in real-time to displacement changes caused by vibration. The invention also includes a limiting sleeve and a positioning sleeve. The cooperation between the limiting sleeve and the positioning sleeve ensures that the conductive rod can only move axially, providing sliding guidance. This utility model is equipped with a support sleeve made of insulating material. The support sleeve completely isolates the conductive rod from the outer casing and the transformer body, preventing the high-voltage electric field from acting directly on the metal parts and preventing surface discharge or corona discharge.

[0038] The device further includes a support sleeve 10 and a positioning sleeve 16, wherein the support sleeve 10 is installed in the outer casing 1 and the positioning sleeve 16 is installed in the support sleeve 10.
[0039] In this embodiment, the overall connection relationship of the device of this utility model is as follows: the top of the outer casing 1 is in movable contact with the top cover 2; the inner wall of the outer casing 1 is fixedly connected to the end screen chamber base 3 of the sleeve; the end screen chamber base 3 of the sleeve is provided with a conductive rod 4; the end screen chamber base 3 of the sleeve is sleeved on the conductive rod 4; the inner wall of the outer casing 1 is fixedly connected to the limiting sleeve 5; the limiting sleeve 5 is slidably connected to the conductive rod 4; the conductive rod 4 is fixedly connected to the limiting ring 6; and the top of the limiting ring 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inspection top cover 2 with an anti-loosening mechanism.

[0042] The limiting sleeve 5 is provided with a positioning sleeve 16, which is slidably connected to the conductive rod 4.
[0043] The support sleeve 10 is made of insulating material.

[0047] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The device forms an elastic pre-tightening system by setting a fastening bolt 7 at the top of the conductive rod 4 and installing an anti-loosening spring 8 between it and the top cover 2. When the top cover 2 is threadedly connected to the outer casing sleeve 1 by the fixing bolt 15, the anti-loosening spring 8 is compressed to generate an initial pre-tightening force. When the equipment vibrates during operation, a small loose gap may appear at the connection between the bushing end screen joint 12 and the insert 9. At this time, the elastic potential energy of the anti-loosening spring 8 is released, pushing the conductive rod 4 to move downward along the axial direction. Through the sliding guidance of the limiting sleeve 5 and the positioning sleeve 16, the loose gap is automatically filled. The limiting ring 6 is fixed in the middle of the conductive rod 4, and the anti-loosening spring 8 between its top and the bottom of the maintenance top cover 2 forms an axial elastic constraint, limiting the excessive displacement of the conductive rod 4, while allowing small elastic compensation. The elastic characteristics of the anti-loosening spring 8 enable it to respond in real time to the displacement changes caused by vibration, solving the problem of loosening and falling off of the traditional end screen lead-out rod due to vibration, significantly improving the long-term reliability of the high-voltage bushing end screen grounding, and providing key technical guarantees for the safe and stable operation of power equipment.
