Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of busbar connection, and specifically relates to a busbar expansion joint. Background Technology

[0002] Busbar expansion joints (also called busbar expansion joints) are devices used for connecting busbar systems in power systems. Their main function is to compensate for the expansion or displacement of the busbar caused by temperature changes, vibrations, etc. They can effectively ensure the stable operation of the busbar and avoid faults or damage caused by excessive busbar deformation.

[0003] The outer wall of most existing busbar expansion joints is made of corrugated pipe. However, in actual use, corrugated pipe structures are easily damaged by stress during installation or vibration of the busbar, resulting in the busbar being exposed and affecting its service life. In addition, the bending angle of the corrugated pipe structure is also relatively limited, and excessive bending can easily damage the corrugated pipe.

[0004] Therefore, in response to the problems of poor strength and easy exposure of existing busbar expansion joints, a new type of busbar expansion joint is developed. By adding internal and external support reinforcement structures and spring auxiliary support structures to the busbar expansion joint, the service life and stress resistance of the busbar expansion joint can be effectively improved, and the busbar can also be prevented from being easily exposed. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides an embodiment: a busbar expansion joint, including a corrugated pipe 1, a connecting sleeve 2 and a telescopic sleeve 3, and also includes a first spring 9, a second spring 10 and a supporting copper wire 5. The inner wall of the corrugated pipe 1 is provided with the second spring 10 and the inner sleeve 7 arranged from the outside to the inside. Several sets of through holes 6 are equidistantly distributed around the front and rear ends of the corrugated pipe 1. The supporting copper wire 5 is installed in the through holes 6. The inner walls of the front and rear ends of the corrugated pipe 1 are provided with connecting sleeves 14. The end of the connecting sleeve 14 away from the corrugated pipe 1 is fixedly connected to the connecting sleeve 2. The inner walls of the front and rear ends of the inner sleeve 7 are provided with telescopic sleeves 3. Several sets of sliders 11 are equidistantly distributed around the telescopic sleeve 3 on the outer wall of the telescopic sleeve 3 near the corrugated pipe 1. The inner wall of the inner sleeve 7 is provided with four sets of sliding grooves 16 equidistantly distributed and symmetrically distributed around the inner wall of the inner sleeve 7. The first spring 9 is disposed in the sliding grooves 16.

[0025] The second spring 10 and the supporting copper wire 5 can assist in improving the strength of the bellows 1 during expansion, contraction and bending adjustment from the inside out, thereby improving the service life and strength of the bellows 1. The telescopic sleeve 3, which can be adjusted along the inner sleeve 7, can be flexibly adjusted according to the length of different busbar bodies 4. The first spring 9 can assist in supporting the telescopic sleeve 3 to prevent the telescopic sleeve 3 from retracting and causing the busbar body 4 to be exposed.

[0026] Please see Figures 3-5In this embodiment, four sets of extension frames 8 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the front and rear ends of the inner sleeve 7, which are equidistantly distributed around the inner sleeve 7. The outer walls of the extension frames 8 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bellows 1. In use, the extension frames 8 can limit the front and rear ends of the second spring 10 to prevent the second spring 10 from displacing. The front and rear ends of the second spring 10 are respectively fixedly connected to the two sets of extension frames 8 distributed in the front and rear. A first connecting post 12 is fixedly connected to the end of the slider 11 near the bellows 1, and a second connecting post 15 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the end of the slide groove 16 near the bellows 1. In use, the first connecting post 12 and the second connecting post 15 can limit the movement of the second spring 10. The first spring 9 is positioned and supported at both ends to prevent displacement. One end of the first spring 9 is fitted onto the first connecting post 12, and the other end of the first spring 9 is fitted onto the second connecting post 15. In use, the first spring 9 can support the telescopic sleeve 3 with its own elasticity to prevent it from retracting into the inner sleeve 7. The connecting sleeve 14 has a slot 13 at one end near the corrugated pipe 1. The busbar body 4 is fitted into the telescopic sleeve 3 and the inner sleeve 7. In use, the slot 13 allows the connecting sleeve 14 to be installed at both ends of the corrugated pipe 1 and can be adjusted accordingly along the curvature of the corrugated pipe 1.

[0027] Please see Figures 3-5 In this embodiment, the slider 11 is adapted to the slide groove 16, and the slot 13 is adapted to the front and rear ends of the corrugated pipe 1. In use, the slider 11, in conjunction with the slide groove 16, can improve the stability of the telescopic sleeve 3 in telescopic adjustment along the inner wall of the inner sleeve 7. The inner walls of the inner sleeve 7 and the telescopic sleeve 3 are both in contact with the outer wall of the busbar body 4, and the outer wall of the telescopic sleeve 3 is in contact with the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 2. In use, the inner sleeve 7 and the telescopic sleeve 3 can protect the exposed front and rear ends of the busbar body 4.

[0028] Before use, the busbar body 4 should pass through the inner walls of the telescopic sleeve 3, the inner sleeve 7 and the corrugated pipe 1, and the center of the busbar body 4 should be located on the inner wall of the inner sleeve 7.

[0029] When the busbar body 4 is in operation, the second spring 10 and the supporting copper wire 5 can help to enhance the strength of the bellows 1 during expansion, contraction and bending adjustment from the inside out, so as to improve the stress buffering of the bellows 1 on the busbar body 4 and improve the service life of the busbar body 4. Meanwhile, the first spring 9 can help support the telescopic sleeve 3 to prevent the telescopic sleeve 3 from retracting and causing the busbar body 4 to be exposed.

[0030] Through the above steps, the second spring 10 and the supporting copper wire 5 can assist in improving the strength of the bellows 1 during expansion, contraction and bending adjustment from the inside out, thereby improving the service life and strength of the bellows 1. The telescopic sleeve 3, which can be adjusted along the inner sleeve 7, can be flexibly adjusted according to the length of different busbar bodies 4. The first spring 9 can assist in supporting the telescopic sleeve 3 to prevent the telescopic sleeve 3 from retracting and causing the busbar body 4 to be exposed. This solves the problem of poor strength of existing busbar expansion joints and the easy exposure of the busbar.

[0031] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
