Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of grounding technology, specifically a graphene grounding strip connection device. Background Technology

[0002] Graphene grounding devices are high-performance grounding systems based on graphene materials, widely used in power, communications, and lightning protection. Utilizing graphene's excellent conductivity, corrosion resistance, and stability, these devices effectively reduce grounding resistance, ensure rapid current discharge, and improve the safety and reliability of the grounding system. Compared to traditional metal grounding devices, graphene grounding devices offer greater durability and adaptability, making them particularly suitable for areas with high soil resistivity or harsh environmental conditions.

[0003] Currently, graphene grounding devices mainly use graphite grounding strips as the conductive body and are fixed by bolt connections. However, during long-term use, the bolt connection method has obvious defects. Due to the complex outdoor environment, bolts are easily corroded by factors such as moisture and salt spray, resulting in surface oxidation, rust, and even breakage, which affects the connection quality of the grounding strip. At the same time, disassembly and maintenance become difficult after the bolts are corroded. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a graphene grounding strip connection device to solve at least one aspect of the problems and defects mentioned in the background art.

[0005] A graphene grounding strip connection device is provided, comprising a plurality of mounting housings, the plurality of mounting housings being interlocked end to end, a fixing component being provided inside the mounting housing, a graphene grounding strip body being interlocked at the upper part of the fixing component, and a protective housing being interlocked at the upper part of the mounting housing.

[0006] Furthermore, a number of snap-fit ​​posts are provided on one side of the upper part of the outer wall of the mounting housing, and a number of slots are provided on the side of the outer wall of the mounting housing away from the snap-fit ​​posts. The snap-fit ​​posts and slots are matched with each other. By matching multiple snap-fit ​​posts with slots, the overall mechanical strength of the grounding strip connection device is improved, and the device is prevented from loosening or failing due to external vibration, mechanical impact and other factors. The snap-fit ​​connection does not require additional screws or welding, which simplifies the installation process and improves construction efficiency.

[0007] Furthermore, the fixing component includes several support frames, which are disposed inside the mounting housing. A mounting plate is disposed above the support frames, and a mounting groove is provided on the mounting plate. A graphene grounding strip body is engaged in the mounting groove. The mounting groove is used to engage and fix the graphene grounding strip body to ensure that the graphene grounding strip body does not slide or shift during installation, so that it will not shift due to external stress or vibration during long-term use.

[0008] Furthermore, the mounting housing is provided with limit posts around its perimeter, and the protective housing is provided with limit slots around its perimeter. When the limit slots are set around the protective housing, the two can be interlocked to effectively fix the protective housing and prevent it from loosening due to external forces, vibrations or wind.

[0009] Furthermore, both the protective housing and the mounting housing are provided with semi-circular through holes on their upper parts. When combined, the semi-circular through holes on the upper parts of the protective housing and the mounting housing form a complete circular through hole, allowing the graphene grounding strip body to pass smoothly through multiple mounting housings without being obstructed.

[0010] Furthermore, the protective housing is provided with an observation window, through which the condition of the graphene grounding strip body can be directly viewed, and whether there is any looseness, corrosion, breakage, dust accumulation or other abnormalities in the graphene grounding strip body, without having to disassemble the protective housing, thus improving inspection efficiency.

[0011] Furthermore, the protective housing is provided with handles on both sides, which allow for quick removal of the protective housing to inspect the condition of key components such as the graphene grounding strip body and fixing components inside, without the need to use tools to pry open the protective housing, thus improving maintenance efficiency.

[0012] Furthermore, grounding rods are provided around the bottom of the mounting housing to enhance the stability of the graphene grounding strip, improve the grounding effect of the grounding system, ensure long-term reliable operation of the equipment, and prevent the equipment from loosening or shifting due to external forces such as wind and rain.

[0013] Furthermore, both the snap-fit ​​post and the limiting post are made of non-metallic corrosion-resistant material, which is polytetrafluoroethylene. The non-metallic corrosion-resistant material is made of materials such as glass fiber reinforced plastic, polyoxymethylene, and polytetrafluoroethylene, which have high mechanical strength, weather resistance and corrosion resistance, and are suitable for grounding devices that are exposed to outdoor environments for a long time.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0015] By connecting multiple mounting housings end to end, the length of the grounding strip can be adjusted according to actual needs, making it suitable for grounding systems of different scales. The mounting housing and protective housing adopt a snap-fit ​​design, which facilitates the replacement of damaged parts, improves maintenance efficiency, reduces maintenance costs, and avoids the problem of bolts being easily corroded and difficult to disassemble when using bolted connections for graphite grounding strips.

[0024] However, there may be instances where unnecessary detailed descriptions are omitted. For example, detailed descriptions of well-known matters or repetitive descriptions of essentially the same structures may be omitted. This is to avoid unnecessarily lengthy descriptions and to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art. Furthermore, the accompanying drawings and the following description are provided to enable those skilled in the art to fully understand this application and are not intended to limit the subject matter of the claims.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown in the present invention, a graphene grounding strip connection device includes a plurality of mounting housings 1, which are connected end to end to each other. A fixing component 2 is provided inside the mounting housing 1. A graphene grounding strip body 3 is clamped to the upper part of the fixing component 2. A protective housing 4 is clamped to the upper part of the mounting housing 1.

[0026] Multiple mounting housings 1 are connected end-to-end, allowing for flexible expansion of the connection device to adapt to different grounding length requirements, while ensuring stable installation and preventing loosening. The fixing component 2 is located inside the mounting housing 1 and is used to firmly clamp the graphene grounding strip body 3, preventing loosening due to external tension or vibration, thus improving service life and reliability. The protective housing 4 is installed on the upper part of the mounting housing 1 to provide physical protection, preventing the influence of the external environment (such as moisture, dust, etc.) on the graphene grounding strip body 3, improving the durability of the device. Graphene material itself has strong corrosion resistance, but the protective housing further enhances its protective capabilities, enabling it to work stably in harsh environments, such as power equipment grounding in high humidity and high salt spray areas. Multiple mounting housings 1 are connected end-to-end, and the length of the grounding strip can be adjusted according to actual needs, making it suitable for grounding systems of different scales. The mounting housing 1 and the protective housing 4 adopt a snap-fit ​​design, which facilitates the replacement of damaged parts, improves maintenance efficiency, reduces maintenance costs, and avoids the problem of bolts being easily corroded and difficult to disassemble during the process of connecting graphite grounding strips with bolts.

[0027] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a plurality of snap-fit ​​posts 11 are provided on one side of the upper part of the outer wall of the mounting housing 1, and a plurality of slots 12 are provided on the side of the outer wall of the mounting housing 1 away from the snap-fit ​​posts 11. The snap-fit ​​posts 11 and slots 12 are interlocked and matched. The snap-fit ​​structure ensures a tight connection between adjacent mounting housings 1, preventing loosening or misalignment. The snap-fit ​​posts 11 are made of non-metallic corrosion-resistant material, such as glass. Materials such as glass fiber reinforced plastic, polyoxymethylene, and polytetrafluoroethylene have high mechanical strength, weather resistance, and corrosion resistance, making them suitable for grounding devices that are exposed to outdoor environments for extended periods. They improve the overall mechanical strength of the grounding strip connection device, preventing the device from loosening or failing due to external vibrations, mechanical impacts, or other factors. The snap-fit ​​connection eliminates the need for additional screws or welding, simplifying the installation process and improving construction efficiency. When a part needs to be replaced, the damaged mounting housing 1 can be easily replaced by disassembling the connection between the snap-fit ​​post 11 and the slot 12, without disassembling the entire grounding system, thus reducing maintenance costs.

[0028] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the fixing component 2 includes several support frames 21, which are disposed inside the mounting housing 1. A mounting plate 22 is disposed above the support frames 21, and a mounting groove 221 is provided on the mounting plate 22. The graphene grounding strip body 3 is snapped into the mounting groove 221. The specific height of the support frame 21 is set according to the semi-circular through hole 5 on the outside of the mounting housing 1. The mounting groove 221 is used to snap and fix the graphene grounding strip body 3, ensuring that the graphene grounding strip body 3 does not slide or shift during installation, so that it will not shift due to external stress or vibration during long-term use. The mounting plate 22 is used to support the base of the graphene grounding strip body 3, providing it with a stable mounting surface, avoiding direct contact between the graphene grounding strip body 3 and the mounting housing 1, reducing the impact of environmental factors (such as moisture and corrosion) on the grounding strip body, and improving durability.

[0029] Please see Figure 3As shown, in a specific embodiment, limiting posts 13 are provided around the mounting housing 1, and limiting slots 41 are provided around the protective housing 4. The limiting posts 13 are provided around the mounting housing 1. In addition, the limiting posts 13 can be made of non-metallic corrosion-resistant materials, such as glass fiber reinforced plastic, polyoxymethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, etc. In this specific embodiment, it is made of polytetrafluoroethylene, which has high mechanical strength, weather resistance and corrosion resistance, and is suitable for grounding devices that are exposed to the outdoor environment for a long time. The limiting slots 41 are provided around the protective housing 4. After the two are interlocked, they can effectively fix the protective housing 4 and prevent it from loosening due to external force, vibration or wind. The protective housing 4 can be quickly installed by simply pressing it gently against the slot of the limiting post 13 without additional screws or welding, which simplifies the construction process and improves the installation efficiency. The protective housing 4 covers the mounting housing 1, which can effectively prevent rainwater, dust and other external environmental factors from entering the interior, reduce the graphene grounding strip body 3 from getting damp, oxidized or contaminated, and improve its service life.

[0030] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, both the protective housing 4 and the mounting housing 1 have semi-circular through holes 5 on their upper parts. When combined, the semi-circular through holes 5 on the upper parts of the protective housing 4 and the mounting housing 1 form a complete circular through hole, allowing the graphene grounding strip body 3 to pass smoothly through multiple mounting housings 1 without obstruction. During construction, simply place the graphene grounding strip body 3 into the semi-circular through hole 5 of the mounting housing 1, and then cover it with the protective housing 4, so that the two semi-circular through holes 5 are connected to form a complete channel, thus completing the installation. There is no need for complicated fixing steps, which improves installation efficiency. When maintaining or replacing the grounding strip, simply remove the protective housing 4 and take out the graphene grounding strip directly from the mounting groove 221 on the mounting plate 22, without damaging the entire installation structure, which improves maintenance convenience and reduces maintenance costs.

[0031] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the protective housing 4 is provided with an observation window 6. The condition of the graphene grounding strip body 3 can be directly observed through the observation window 6 to check whether the graphene grounding strip body 3 is loose, corroded, broken, dusty or other abnormal, without disassembling the protective housing 4, thus improving inspection efficiency.

[0032] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, handles 7 are provided on both sides of the protective housing 4. When installing the protective housing 4, the handles 7 provide additional control force, allowing the construction personnel to more accurately align the installation position and ensure that the limiting post 13 and the limiting slot 41 are smoothly engaged, thereby improving assembly accuracy and avoiding poor contact caused by misalignment. Maintenance personnel can quickly remove the protective housing 4 through the handles 7 to check the status of key components such as the graphene grounding strip body 3 and the fixing component 2 inside, without having to use tools to pry open the protective housing 4, thus improving maintenance efficiency.

[0033] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, grounding rods 8 are provided around the bottom of the mounting housing 1. The grounding rods 8 enhance the stability of the graphene grounding strip body 3, improve the grounding effect of the grounding system, ensure the long-term reliable operation of the equipment, and prevent the equipment from loosening or shifting due to external forces such as wind and rain.

[0034] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, both the snap-fit ​​post 11 and the limiting post 13 are made of non-metallic corrosion-resistant materials, namely polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). These materials have high mechanical strength, weather resistance, and corrosion resistance, making them suitable for grounding devices that are exposed to outdoor environments for extended periods.

[0035] The above description is merely an example and illustration of the structure of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or additions to the specific embodiments described or use similar methods to replace them, as long as they do not deviate from the structure of the utility model or exceed the scope defined in the claims, they should all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
