Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of temperature monitoring technology, and in particular to an overheat monitoring device for electrical joints of electrical equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing automation of China's industrial production, the shift from emergency repairs to preventative maintenance of power equipment has become a focus of attention and research in the power generation, supply, and consumption industries. During long-term operation, critical equipment in power plants and substations, such as high-voltage switchgear, busbar joints, and indoor / outdoor disconnect switches, experience surface oxidation and corrosion, loosening of fastening bolts due to thermal expansion and contraction, and aging of contacts and busbar connections. These issues lead to increased contact resistance at electrical equipment joints. With the rapid development of the national economy and increasing loads, these factors can easily cause excessive temperature rise in electrical equipment. If not addressed promptly, this can degrade the performance of insulation components, even leading to breakdown and serious accidents, resulting in significant economic losses. In recent years, numerous switch overheating accidents have occurred in power plants and substations, causing fires and large-scale power outages. Addressing switch overheating is crucial to preventing such accidents. The use of overheat monitoring devices at electrical terminals is necessary to monitor temperatures online, which is an important means of ensuring the safety of high-voltage equipment.

[0003] The existing monitoring device fixes the sensor to the electrical terminal with a wire screw. Since the electrical terminal often has multiple terminals, the operator needs to hold the monitoring device to stabilize it before tightening the wire screw. However, the monitoring device is small and requires both hands to operate in the confined space of the same electrical terminal, making it inconvenient to operate during installation. Utility Model Content

A support frame is provided at the top of the terminal block. A support rod is fixedly installed at the top of the temperature sensor. An elastic sleeve is sleeved on the outer side of the support rod. Multiple support grooves are formed on one side of the support frame. A card that engages with the support groove is fixedly installed on one side of the elastic sleeve. A wire-passing groove is formed on the side of the support frame away from the support groove. A support plate is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frame. Magnets located on both sides of the wire-passing groove are fixedly installed on one side of the support plate. The distance between the two sides of the inner wall of the support groove is less than the width of the card.

[0006] Preferably, the distance between the inner walls at the opening of the support groove is less than the distance between its inner walls.

[0007] Preferably, the card has grooves on both sides.

[0008] Preferably, the width of the top of the card is greater than the width of its bottom.

[0024] like Figures 1-4 As shown, an overheat monitoring device for electrical connectors of electrical equipment includes a base plate 1 and a temperature sensor 2. A terminal block 11 is provided on the front side of the base plate 1. The temperature sensor 2 is fixedly installed on the terminal block 11 by a fastening piece 21. A support frame 3 is provided at the top of the terminal block 11. A support rod 22 is fixedly installed at the top of the temperature sensor 2. An elastic sleeve 23 is sleeved on the outside of the support rod 22. Multiple sets of support grooves 31 are opened on one side of the support frame 3. A card 24 that engages with the support groove 31 is fixedly installed on one side of the elastic sleeve 23. A wire passage groove 34 is opened on the side of the support frame 3 away from the support groove 31. A support plate 32 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frame 3. Magnets 33 located on both sides of the wire passage groove 34 are fixedly installed on one side of the support plate 32. The distance between the two sides of the inner wall of the support groove 31 is less than the width of the card 24.

[0025] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 The distance between the inner walls at the opening of the support groove 31 is less than the distance between its inner walls.

[0026] Specifically: Increase the clamping force of the inner wall of the support groove 31 on the card 24.

[0027] like Figure 4 Card 24 has grooves 5 on both sides.

[0028] Specifically: the engagement of the slide groove 5 with the support groove 31 increases the fastness of the card 24 inside the support groove 31.

[0029] like Figure 4 The top width of card 24 is greater than the bottom width.

[0030] Specifically: Increase the fastening of the card 24 inside the support slot 31.

[0031] like Figure 3 Auxiliary plate 4 is provided on one side of support frame 3. Support plate 32 is fixedly installed on the bottom end of auxiliary plate 4 near the side of support frame 3. Slot 41 is provided on one side of auxiliary plate 4. One side of support frame 3 extends into the inner plate of slot 41.

[0032] Specifically: By using the auxiliary plate 4, one side of the support frame 3 can be cut to shorten the support frame 3. Then, the cut side of the support frame 3 can be re-inserted into the slot 41 on the auxiliary plate 4, thereby adjusting the length of the support frame 3 and further improving its adaptability.

[0033] Operating principle: When installing an electrical overheat monitoring device, first, the elastic sleeve 23 is fixed to the outside of the support rod 22. Then, the clip 24 on the elastic sleeve 23 is inserted into the support groove 31, and the clip 24 is clamped by the inner walls of the support groove 31. Repeat the above steps according to the number of terminals to fix multiple monitoring devices on the support frame 3. Then, the support frame 3 is attracted to the base plate 1 by the magnet 33 on the support plate 32. Align the fastening piece 21 at the bottom of the temperature sensor 2 with the terminal on the terminal block 11 to achieve pre-fixation of multiple temperature sensors 2. Finally, tighten the wire clamping screw to complete the installation. This allows workers to operate the device in limited conditions. The internal space is equipped with a monitoring device to improve convenience; since the elastic sleeve 23 can move along the entire length of the support rod 22, the distance between the elastic sleeve 23 and the temperature sensor 2 is adjustable, preventing the fastening piece 21 from being unable to effectively align with the terminal block 11 when the placement height of the support frame 3 inside the junction box is limited, thus improving adaptability; when the auxiliary plate 4 is sleeved on one side of the support frame 3, if the length of the support frame 3 is too long to fit inside the junction box, one side of the support frame 3 can be cut to shorten it, and then the cut side of the support frame 3 can be re-inserted into the slot 41 on the auxiliary plate 4 to adjust the length of the support frame 3, further improving adaptability.

[0034] It is worth noting that when selecting and preparing the treatment solution, it is necessary to choose a solution that can chemically react with the pollutants in the waste gas, based on the type and nature of the pollutants.
