Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of transformer technology, specifically a transformer partial discharge test device. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of electrical equipment testing, transformers are the core test object, and the connection and disconnection of their metal electrodes are crucial in the testing process. Currently, the connection structure between the metal electrodes and the transformer mostly adopts traditional bolt-fastening or plug-in connections. After the test, these connection methods present numerous safety hazards and efficiency issues. On the one hand, bolt-fastening connections require operators to perform multiple disassembly and assembly operations using tools, a cumbersome and time-consuming process. Furthermore, the residual charge on the metal electrodes during disassembly and assembly can easily lead to electric shock, seriously threatening the operator's life. On the other hand, while plug-in connections are relatively simple to operate, their connection stability is poor. Loosening may occur during the test, affecting the accuracy of test data, and the safety issues caused by residual charge cannot be avoided when separating them after the test. In addition, regardless of the connection method, it is difficult to achieve rapid separation of the metal electrodes from the transformer, resulting in low post-test equipment processing efficiency and seriously affecting the test progress. Utility Model Content

The limiting block abuts against the side of the support frame. An L-shaped fixing plate is fixedly disposed on the outside of the rectangular tube. A DC solenoid valve is fixedly disposed on the L-shaped fixing plate. The end of the DC solenoid valve abuts against the limiting block.

[0015] The present invention will be further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the teachings of this invention, those skilled in the art can make various alterations or modifications to the present invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined in this application.

[0016] Referring to the accompanying drawings, a transformer partial discharge test device includes a housing 1 and a metal electrode 2. The metal electrode 2 is slidably disposed on the top of the housing 1. A rectangular tube 3 is fixedly disposed on the top of the housing 1. A support frame 4 is slidably disposed inside the rectangular tube 3. A limiting block 5 is hinged to the outside of the rectangular tube 3. The limiting block 5 abuts against the side of the support frame 4. An L-shaped fixing plate 6 is fixedly disposed on the outside of the rectangular tube 3. A DC solenoid valve 7 is fixedly disposed on the L-shaped fixing plate 6. The end of the DC solenoid valve 7 abuts against the limiting block 5. This structural design enables the metal electrode 2 to be quickly separated and disconnected.

[0017] A spring 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support frame 4, and the other end of the spring 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the rectangular tube 3. The support frame 4 has a fixed array of slots 9 on its side, and the limiting block 5 abuts against the inner wall of the slot 9. An arc-shaped groove is opened on the support frame 4, and the arc-shaped groove is sleeved on the outer ring of the metal electrode 2. A retaining ring 10 is fixedly installed near the top of the outer ring of the metal electrode 2, and the retaining ring 10 abuts against the bottom of the support frame 4. An insulating plate is provided between the retaining ring 10 and the support frame 4. A sleeve 11 is fixedly installed at the top of the box 1, and an insulating cylinder is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the sleeve 11. The metal electrode 2 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the insulating cylinder.

[0018] A detection frame 12 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 1. An insulating frame 13 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the detection frame 12. The insulating frame 13 is made of insulating material such as rubber. A transformer is placed inside the insulating frame 13. A grounding wire 14 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the housing 1 and connected to the bottom of the transformer. The bottom of the metal electrode 2 abuts against the top of the transformer. A current sensor 15 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 1. An insulating rod 16 is fixedly installed on the side of the current sensor 15. The current sensor 15 is electrically connected to the grounding wire 14. This structural design detects the current signal transmitted on the grounding wire 14 and transmits it to an external receiving device.

[0019] The enclosure 1 has a hinged door on the front and a ventilation grille arrayed on the back. A shell is fixedly installed on the side of the enclosure 1, and ventilation openings are arrayed on the shell. A fan 17 is fixedly installed inside the shell. A heating resistance wire 18 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the enclosure 1 near the fan 17. This structural design allows observation of the partial discharge of the transformer under high temperature conditions.

[0020] When using this device, open the door of the enclosure 1, place the transformer to be tested stably inside the insulating frame 13, press down the support frame 4 to make the metal electrode 2 contact the top of the transformer, ensure that the bottom of the transformer is reliably connected to the grounding wire 14, connect the current sensor 15 to the grounding wire 14 to ensure that the discharge current signal of the transformer can be monitored in real time and transmitted to the external receiving device, close the door, start the fan 17 and the heating resistance wire 18 to raise the temperature inside the enclosure to the high temperature required for the test (simulating the actual operating environment of the transformer), and then energize the metal electrode 2;

[0021] The data transmitted by the current sensor 15 is analyzed in real time by an external receiving device to monitor the partial discharge of the transformer under high temperature and high pressure. When the monitoring system detects an abnormality (such as excessive discharge or sudden change in discharge frequency) or when the test ends, the external control system immediately sends an energizing signal to the DC solenoid valve 7. The end of the solenoid valve 7 presses the limit block 5 to disengage from the slot 9, the support frame 4 loses its lock, the spring 8 releases its elastic potential energy, and pushes the metal electrode 2 to move quickly upward along the sleeve 11 to separate from the transformer.

[0022] Confirm that the current sensor 15 shows zero current, ensure that the circuit is completely disconnected, turn off the heating resistance wire 18, keep the fan 17 running, and turn off the fan after the temperature inside the chamber drops to room temperature. Open the chamber door, disconnect the relevant connections, and take out the transformer after the test.
