Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0031] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 3 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.
[0032] According to embodiments of the present invention, on the one hand, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a cable hole sealing device is provided, including a body 1 and a filler. The body 1 is a flexible strip structure with a cavity inside. The body 1 is provided with a filling port 2 and a groove 3 along its length. The groove 3 is suitable for engaging with the cable hole. The filler is filled inside the body 1.
[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, the body 1 has a long strip structure and is made of flexible material. Its interior is a cavity. The body 1 can be bent into a shape that matches the cable hole on the transformer box. In this embodiment, the cable hole is not specifically limited. For example, in this embodiment, when the cable hole is a circular hole, when installing the cable hole sealing device, the body 1 is first bent into a ring. The inner side of the ring abuts against the cable 7. The groove 3 is located on the outer side of the ring and is engaged with the edge of the cable hole. Then, the filler is filled into the body 1 through the filling port 2.
[0034] In this embodiment, the filler is not specifically limited. For example, in this embodiment, the filler is silicone sealant. The silicone sealant is in a fluid state in a closed container and will begin to solidify after contact with air, so that the paste-like sealant gradually transforms into an elastic solid within the body 1.
[0035] In some other embodiments, the filler may also be a gas, such as air, nitrogen, etc.
[0036] This utility model bends the flexible strip-shaped body 1 into a shape that matches the cable hole and installs it in the cable hole of the transformer box. When the filler is filled into the body 1, the body 1 expands to completely seal the cable hole, effectively preventing small animals from entering the transformer box, reducing the risk of the circuits inside the transformer box being chewed by small animals, and also improving the reliability of fireproof sealing. The groove 3 is engaged with the edge of the cable hole to prevent the body 1 from moving or shifting. It has the advantages of simple structure and convenient disassembly and assembly.
[0037] In one embodiment, the filling port 2 is provided with a plug.
[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the plug is not specifically limited. For example, the plug can be a rubber stopper. After the filler is filled into the body 1, the plug is installed on the filling port 2 to prevent the filler from flowing out of the filling hole before it solidifies.
[0039] After the filler is filled into the body 1, the present invention provides a plug on the filling port 2 to prevent the filler from overflowing, thus ensuring the sealing of the body 1 to the cable hole.
[0040] In one embodiment, the side of the body 1 away from the groove 3 is provided with an anti-slip layer.
[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the body 1 is bent into a shape that matches the cable hole, the anti-slip layer is located on the side that abuts against the cable 7.
[0042] In this embodiment, the protective layer is not specifically limited. For example, in this embodiment, the protective layer is made of rubber pads such as nitrile rubber and neoprene rubber. The rubber pads are in contact with the outer wall of the cable 7, which can increase the anti-slip performance between the body 1 and the cable 7 and reduce the displacement between the body 1 and the cable 7.
[0043] The anti-slip layer of this utility model comes into contact with the cable 7, which can improve the stability of the connection between the body 1 and the cable 7.
[0044] In one embodiment, the body 1 includes a fireproof layer and an inner lining layer, with the fireproof layer located outside the inner lining layer.
[0045] Specifically, in this embodiment, the body 1 has a double-layer structure, with an inner lining layer and an outer fireproof layer, and the filler is filled in the inner lining layer.
[0046] In this embodiment, the fireproof layer on the outside of the main body 1 can improve the fireproof performance of the main body 1.
[0047] In one embodiment, adhesive pieces are provided at both ends of the body 1.
[0048] Specifically, this embodiment does not impose specific limitations on the adhesive component.
