Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of high voltage equipment technology, specifically to a transformer wall-mounted neutral point device. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, power transformers are crucial electrical equipment in power systems, used to transform AC voltage. The neutral point of a transformer is typically directly grounded. Our company's fully insulated, enclosed neutral point gap grounding protection device encloses the discharge gap, current transformer, surge arrester, grounding switch, and other components from the transformer's neutral point within an SF6 gas chamber, enabling two different operating modes: grounded or ungrounded neutral point. This prevents damage to the transformer caused by a rise in neutral point voltage due to system faults.

[0003] The neutral point devices in the prior art have the following problems:

[0004] The neutral point equipment in the existing technology uses an independent neutral point device, which requires the pre-pouring of a concrete foundation during the installation process, making the installation process relatively complicated. At the same time, because the neutral point device and the transformer use separate foundations, it is necessary to take into account the damage to the structural components caused by subsequent terrain settlement.

[0026] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0027] like Figures 1-5 As shown, this embodiment proposes a transformer wall-mounted neutral point device, including a transformer 4 and a neutral point device 5. The neutral point device 5 is located on one side of the transformer 4. The neutral point device 5 and the transformer 4 are connected by a seismic expansion joint 1 through screws. The seismic expansion joint 1 includes an expansion part 11 and connecting parts located on both sides of the expansion part 11. The two sides of the expansion part 11 are connected to the two connecting parts by welding. The two expansion parts 11 are connected by a connecting chain 12.

[0028] The neutral point device 5 is provided with a lower seismic support 2 at its bottom. One side of the lower seismic support 2 is fixedly connected to the transformer 4 by screws. The neutral point device 5 is provided with a middle seismic support 3 on one side. One end of the middle seismic support 3 is fixedly connected to the transformer 4 by screws.

[0029] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the neutral point device 5 has a neutral point structure inside, which is made of metal. The neutral point structure has a sealed gas chamber inside, which is filled with SF6 gas to ensure internal insulation performance.

[0030] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the neutral point device 5 is provided with a ball gap adjustment structure 6 inside. The ball gap adjustment structure 6 includes a fixed base 61. The fixed base 61 is fixedly installed inside the neutral point device 5 by screws. The bottom of the fixed base 61 is fixedly connected to a support plate 62 by screws. The top of the support plate 62 is provided with a digital display 63. The top of the moving part of the digital display 63 is fixedly connected to a gap placement ball head by a ground.

[0031] A display screen 64 is installed on the other side of the support plate 62. The display screen 64 is electrically connected to the digital display instrument 63. The display screen 64 is used to display the distance of the ball head gap in real time.

[0032] The connection between the middle seismic support 3 and the lower seismic support 2 and the neutral point device 5 is made of bolts and washers. The bolts are made of CH38F steel and the washers are made of rubber to ensure good connection strength and seismic strength.

[0033] In this embodiment, the neutral point device 5 is installed directly on the transformer 4 body without using an independent foundation.

The lower seismic support 2 and the middle seismic support 3 are connected by the mounting brackets pre-set on the transformer 4 body. They are connected into one piece using high-strength bolts and rubber gaskets, which simultaneously activates the seismic resistance and support functions. This also reduces the problems caused by the use of concrete foundations in the prior art, such as high cost and time required for concrete foundation pouring.

[0034] Furthermore, the seismic expansion joint 1 is used to connect with the transformer 4 body. By setting the expansion joint 11 inside the seismic expansion joint 1, it can adjust the dimensional errors during the manufacturing and installation process and improve the seismic performance.
