[0002] Existing integrated energy storage converter-boost systems mainly consist of a medium-voltage ring main unit, an oil-immersed transformer, a power conversion system (PCS), and a bus system. All components are housed within a metal casing. Especially when multiple PCSs are used, the transformer often requires a double-split structure, with the low-voltage side wiring components located at the bottom of the transformer and the PCS positioned on either side. Because a separate medium-voltage ring main unit compartment is required, and fans are added for cooling while considering heat dissipation performance, the layout of the integrated energy storage converter-boost system requires a large space, resulting in low space utilization. Furthermore, cooling via fans necessitates consideration of the fans' mechanical lifespan and maintenance, significantly increasing the maintenance costs of the integrated energy storage converter-boost system.

[0031] Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are all within the scope of protection of this utility model. The various technical features of this utility model can be combined interactively without contradicting each other.
[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 5 This utility model embodiment proposes an integrated energy storage converter and step-up unit, including a combined transformer 100, two energy storage converters 200, and two bus bridges 300. The two energy storage converters 200 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the combined transformer 100, and the energy storage converters 200 and the combined transformer 100 are electrically connected through the bus bridges 300. This integrated energy storage converter and step-up unit can realize energy storage, conversion, and voltage boosting functions, and can solve the heat dissipation problem of existing integrated energy storage converters and step-up units, avoiding the problems of short mechanical life and difficult maintenance caused by using fan cooling. It also reduces the layout space and improves space utilization.
[0033] In this embodiment, busbar bridges 300 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the combined transformer 100. Each busbar bridge 300 includes a bridge body and busbars 340. (Refer to...) Figure 3 and Figure 4 The bridge body includes a first connecting section 310, a second connecting section 320, and an upright section 330. The upright section 330 is located between the energy storage converter 200 and the combined transformer 100. The first connecting section 310 is located at the upper end of the upright section 330 and is connected to the side of the combined transformer 100. The side wall of the first connecting section 310 is provided with a first heat dissipation hole 311, which communicates with the inner cavity of the first connecting section 310. The second connecting section 320 is located at the lower end of the upright section 330 and is connected to the energy storage converter 200. The busbar 340 is located inside the bridge body and is arranged along the direction of the bridge body. The two ends of the busbar 340 are electrically connected to the combined transformer 100 and the energy storage converter 200, respectively.
[0034] Understandably, the high-voltage side of the combined transformer 100 receives electrical energy via an elbow cable that can be plugged in and out under load, while a low-voltage outgoing line component is installed outside the oil tank 110. Using the combined transformer 100 eliminates the need for a separate medium-voltage ring main unit, reducing the space occupied by the integrated energy storage converter and step-up unit.
[0035] During use, the busbar 340 is electrically connected to the low-voltage outgoing components of the combined transformer 100. Since the busbar 340 is provided with a vertical section 330, and the first connecting section 310 located at the upper end of the vertical section 330 is provided with a first heat dissipation hole 311 communicating with the inner cavity, hot air rises along the vertical section 330 of the busbar bridge 300 to the first connecting section 310 and is naturally discharged. Natural heat dissipation can be achieved by utilizing the chimney effect, eliminating the need to add a fan to solve the heat dissipation problem, reducing the space occupied by the fan, and avoiding the problems of short mechanical life and difficult maintenance caused by using a fan for heat dissipation, thus reducing the maintenance cost of the energy storage converter step-up unit.
[0036] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The combined transformer 100 includes an oil tank 110, a high-voltage compartment 120, and a heat sink 130. The high-voltage compartment 120 and the heat sink 130 are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the oil tank 110. A set of low-voltage outgoing bushings 140 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the oil tank 110. The low-voltage outgoing bushings 140 are conductively connected to the upper end of the busbar 340 as low-voltage outgoing components.
[0037] Understandably, the heat sink 130 can improve the heat dissipation performance of the combined transformer 100 and avoid the problem of overheating of the combined transformer 100. Moreover, the low-voltage outgoing bushings 140 are set on the left and right sides of the oil tank 110, and the problem of outgoing lines on both sides of the dual-winding transformer is solved by the scheme of current convergence inside the oil tank 110.
[0038] In this embodiment, the oil tank 110 has an IP68 protection rating, and the busbar bridge 300 has an IP54 connection protection rating, which meets the requirements for outdoor installation.
[0039] In traditional transformer layouts, to facilitate the installation and maintenance of the transformer and PCS, a large operating space is often required between the transformer and the PCS, typically above 800 mm.
[0040] In this embodiment, two low-voltage outgoing bushings 140 are located on the upper part of the oil tank 110, and a top cover is provided on the top of the oil tank 110, which can open or close the inner cavity of the oil tank 110. This arrangement helps to reduce the size of the oil tank 110. When installing internal components of the oil tank 110 and connecting low-voltage leads, the top of the inner cavity of the oil tank 110 can be opened through the top cover, eliminating the need for a separate installation and operation hole and avoiding the risk of oil leakage. In addition, since operators can perform wiring operations on the low-voltage outgoing bushings 140 located on the upper part of the oil tank 110 by opening the top cover of the oil tank 110, the energy storage converter 200 and the combined transformer 100 do not need to reserve a large operating space, reducing the arrangement distance between the energy storage converter 200 and the combined transformer 100, thereby reducing the space occupied by the entire energy storage converter and step-up unit and improving space utilization.
[0041] In some embodiments, an instrument box 150 is provided on the front side of the oil tank 110. The instrument box 150 is equipped with components such as a pressure gauge, an oil level gauge, and an oil temperature probe. Operators can obtain information such as the pressure, oil level, and oil temperature inside the oil tank 110 through the instrument box 150. Components such as a pressure relief valve, a load switch, and a tap changer are also provided on the instrument box 150, which can control the pressure, circuit, and output voltage inside the oil tank 110.
[0042] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The width of the vertical section 330 of the bridge body gradually increases from bottom to top along the front-to-back direction. This design helps hot air to diffuse at the upper end of the vertical section 330 and facilitates the rapid discharge of hot air through the first heat dissipation hole 311 after entering the first connecting section 310, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect.
[0043] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 3 The front side of the vertical section 330 is vertically set, while the rear side of the vertical section 330 is an inclined surface. The rear side of the vertical section 330 is gradually inclined backward from bottom to top, so that the width of the inner cavity of the vertical section 330 gradually increases from bottom to top along the front-back direction.
[0044] In other embodiments, reference is made to Figure 4 The front and rear sides of the vertical section 330 are inclined surfaces with different slopes. Both the front and rear sides of the vertical section 330 are gradually inclined backward from bottom to top. The angle between the front side of the vertical section 330 and the horizontal plane is greater than the angle between the rear side of the vertical section 330 and the horizontal plane. This makes the width of the inner cavity of the vertical section 330 gradually increase from bottom to top in the front-back direction, and adapts to the arrangement of the bus bridge 300 and other components.
[0045] In some embodiments, the first heat dissipation hole 311 is provided on the front and rear walls of the first connecting section 310, so that both the front and rear walls of the first connecting section 310 can effectively dissipate heat, further improving the heat dissipation effect of the bus bridge 300 and avoiding overheating.
[0046] In some embodiments, the second connecting section 320 is provided with a second heat dissipation hole 321, which is located on the front or rear wall surface of the second connecting section 320. By providing the second heat dissipation hole 321, heat dissipation can be achieved at the lower end of the bridge body, and natural convection can be better formed inside the bridge body, further improving the heat dissipation effect of the bus bridge 300.
[0047] It is understandable that the number and diameter of the first heat dissipation hole 311 and the second heat dissipation hole 321 are set according to the actual heat generation and protection level requirements.
[0048] In some embodiments, the vertical section 330 includes a mounting body and a side cover, the side cover being detachably connected to the left or right end of the mounting body. It is understood that the mounting body and the side cover together surround an inner cavity forming the vertical section 330, within which the busbar 340 extends. By opening the side cover, it is convenient for operators to perform maintenance operations on the busbar 340.
[0049] In some embodiments, the side cover and the mounting body are detachably connected by screws or other connectors, and a handle 331 is provided on the outside of the side cover to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the side cover.
[0050] In some embodiments, the integrated energy storage converter and step-up unit also includes a container 400, which can centrally install the combined transformer 100, the energy storage converter 200 and the bus bridge 300. This facilitates the overall layout and transportation of the integrated energy storage converter and step-up unit, and allows for standardized installation dimensions, which is beneficial for reserving installation space and on-site installation.
[0051] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 5 The container 400 includes an integrated frame 410 and two partition plates 420. The partition plates 420 are vertically arranged and connected to the integrated frame 410. The partition plates 420 can divide the inner cavity of the integrated frame 410 into three mounting cavities, namely a first mounting cavity 421 and two second mounting cavities 422. The two second mounting cavities 422 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the first mounting cavity 421. The first mounting cavity 421 is used to place the combined transformer 100, and the two second mounting cavities 422 are used to place the energy storage converter 200. Preferably, a support base 450 is provided at the lower end of the second mounting cavity 422. The bottom surface of the energy storage converter 200 is connected to the support base 450 and forms a wiring space 451 with the bottom surface of the second mounting cavity 422. That is, the energy storage converter 200 is raised by the support base 450 and placed in the second mounting cavity 422 to facilitate the outgoing wiring of the bottom surface of the energy storage converter 200 and its connection with the bus bridge 300.
[0052] In this embodiment, to facilitate the arrangement of the busbar bridge 300, a cable passage 423 is provided at the lower end of the partition plate 420, allowing the lower ends of the first mounting cavity 421 and the second mounting cavity 422 to communicate with each other. The first connecting section 310 and the vertical section 330 of the busbar bridge 300 are disposed in the first mounting cavity 421, while the second connecting section 320 passes through the cable passage 423 and extends into the cable passage space 451 below the energy storage converter 200. The upper end face of the second connecting section 320 is connected to the bottom of the energy storage converter 200.
[0053] In some embodiments, the container 400 further includes two equipment doors 430, which are located on the front and rear sides of the first mounting cavity 421, respectively, and are movably connected to the integrated frame 410. The equipment doors 430 can open or close the first mounting cavity 421, protect the combined transformer 100, and facilitate the operator to perform maintenance operations on the combined transformer 100.
[0054] In this embodiment, the device door 430 is provided with a third heat dissipation hole 431, which is connected to the first mounting cavity 421, so that the hot air discharged from the first heat dissipation hole 311 can be smoothly discharged from the first mounting cavity 421, effectively solving the heat dissipation problem in the first mounting cavity 421.
[0055] In some embodiments, the container 400 further includes a top cover 440, which covers the first mounting cavity 421 and is detachably connected to the upper end of the integrated frame 410. It is understood that the top cover 440 can be detachably connected to the integrated frame 410 via screws or other connectors. Removing the top cover 440 allows operators to easily open the top cover of the fuel tank 110 for maintenance of the internal components.
[0056] In some embodiments, a fourth heat dissipation hole 441 is provided on the top cover 440, and the fourth heat dissipation hole 441 is connected to the first mounting cavity 421, which can further improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the first mounting cavity 421.
[0057] In some embodiments, a fifth heat dissipation hole 452 is provided on the side wall of the support base 450 for raising the energy storage converter 200. The fifth heat dissipation hole 452 is connected to the wiring space 451. The hot air discharged through the second heat dissipation hole 321 can be smoothly discharged through the fifth heat dissipation hole 452 to the wiring space 451, effectively solving the heat dissipation problem in the second mounting cavity 422.
[0058] It is understood that the number, size, and shape of the third heat dissipation hole 431, the fourth heat dissipation hole 441, and the fifth heat dissipation hole 452 are not specifically limited here.
[0059] In this embodiment, the container 400 has a length of 6058mm, a width of 2438mm, and a height of 2896mm. It is understood that the dimensions of the container 400 can be designed according to actual circumstances, and are not specifically limited here.
