Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pressure relief technology for power distribution cabinets, specifically a pressure relief device for explosion-proof power distribution cabinets. Background Technology

[0002] The explosion-proof principle of positive pressure explosion-proof distribution cabinets mainly adopts the explosion-proof measure of isolating the ignition source by medium. All electrical components of the user are installed in a shell filled with a pressurized clean medium, so that flammable and explosive gas mixtures in the external environment cannot come into contact with the electric sparks or dangerous temperatures generated by the electrical components during normal operation, thereby achieving the purpose of electrical explosion protection.

[0003] Currently, the reset mechanism in existing distribution cabinet pressure relief devices uses springs for reset. However, with the increase in usage time and pressure relief frequency, the springs will experience metal fatigue and will no longer be able to effectively perform the reset function. They need to be disassembled and replaced to restore their pressure relief function. The replacement of springs in existing distribution cabinet pressure relief devices is inconvenient, which has certain shortcomings. Therefore, we propose a pressure relief device for explosion-proof distribution cabinets. Utility Model Content

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 5This utility model provides a technical solution: a pressure relief device for an explosion-proof distribution cabinet, comprising a housing 1, the housing 1 being installed in a pressure relief hole on the top of the explosion-proof distribution cabinet, a threaded seat 2 being fixedly installed on the outer side of the housing 1, an installation cover 3 being threadedly installed on the outer side of the threaded seat 2, a limit ring 21 being fixedly installed on the outer side of the bottom of the threaded seat 2, the installation cover 3 cooperating with the limit ring 21, a pressure relief chamber 4 being opened inside the top of the housing 1, a pressure relief channel 5 being opened inside the housing 1 below the pressure relief chamber 4, a movable plate 6 being movably installed inside the pressure relief chamber 4, a sealing piston 7 being fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom of the movable plate 6, the sealing piston 7 cooperating with the pressure relief channel 5, and the pressure relief channel 5 being located on both sides inside the housing 1. Each of the movable plates 6 has a limiting hole 8. Two limiting rods 9 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable plate 6. One end of the limiting rod 9 extends into the interior of the limiting hole 8 and a limiting slider 10 is fixedly installed therein. The limiting slider 10 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting hole 8. A guide rod 11 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the movable plate 6. A spring 12 is provided on the outside of the guide rod 11. The movable plate 6 cooperates with the spring 12. The spring 12 cooperates with the mounting cover 3. A guide hole 13 is opened inside the top of the mounting cover 3. The guide rod 11 is slidably connected to the guide hole 13. Several pressure relief grooves 14 are opened inside the top of the mounting cover 3. A fireproof mesh is provided inside the pressure relief grooves 14. A sealing ring 15 is provided at the bottom of the mounting cover 3. The sealing ring 15 cooperates with the housing 1.

[0021] Several mounting rods 16 are fixedly installed on the top of the mounting cover 3. A top plate 17 is fixedly installed on one end of the mounting rod 16. An alarm 18 is installed on the top of the top plate 17. A control box 19 is installed at the bottom of the top plate 17. A time delay switch 20 is installed at the bottom of the control box 19. The guide rod 11 cooperates with the time delay switch 20. The control box 19 is existing technology. When the time delay switch 20 is triggered, the pressure inside the distribution cabinet is too high and it cannot reset for a long time, or the spring 12 is metal fatigued and cannot rebound, and the time the time delay switch 20 is pressed exceeds the normal pressure relief time, the alarm 18 will be activated to indicate that the pressure inside the distribution cabinet is too high or that the spring 12 is metal fatigued and cannot rebound, prompting the staff to handle the situation.

[0022] In summary, the pressure relief device used in this explosion-proof distribution cabinet works as follows: when the pressure inside the distribution cabinet is too high, the pressure will push the sealed piston 7 out of the pressure relief channel 5, allowing the pressurized gas to be discharged through the pressure relief chamber 4 and the pressure relief groove 14. When the movable plate 6 moves upward, it squeezes the spring 12, and at the same time, the guide rod 11 pushes up and contacts the time delay switch 20. When the spring 12 experiences metal fatigue and the pressure inside the distribution cabinet reaches the threshold pressure, the time delay switch 20 continues to release pressure. After being squeezed for a long time, exceeding the pressing time threshold set by the control box 19, the alarm 18 will be activated to indicate that the spring 12 has experienced metal fatigue, prompting the staff to replace the spring 12. When replacing the spring 12, it is only necessary to rotate the mounting cover 3 to unscrew it from the outside of the threaded seat 2, and then the spring 12 can be removed from the outside of the guide rod 11 for replacement. The overall replacement is convenient and quick.

[0023] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
