Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of capacitors, and relates to a capacitor, and more particularly to an explosion-proof capacitor. Background Technology
[0002] A capacitor, often simply referred to as capacitance for its ability to store electrical charge, is denoted by the letter C.

[0018] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.
[0019] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model can be implemented through the following embodiments: An explosion-proof capacitor includes a core 1, a housing 2, and a mounting cover 3. The core 1 is mounted on the mounting cover 3 by bolts 4. The mounting cover 3 is mounted on the top of the housing 2. A pressure regulating chamber 21 is provided inside the housing 2. A pressure relief hole 211 is provided on the pressure regulating chamber 21. A valve 5 is installed in the pressure relief hole 211. An air passage 51 is provided on the valve 5. The valve 5 is connected to a partition 22. A sealing cover 6 is connected to the partition 22. The sealing cover 6 is installed on the outside of the core 1 and fixed between the mounting cover 3 and the partition 22.
[0020] The cooperation between the pressure regulating chamber 21 and the pressure relief hole 211 allows the air in the pressure regulating chamber 21 to be discharged, thereby regulating the air pressure inside the housing 2. The valve 5 is designed to provide a pressure relief threshold to prevent the explosion-proof function from being activated due to temperature changes in the air pressure inside the housing 2. The opening of the air passage 51 allows the valve 5 to connect the pressure regulating chamber 21 to the outside air. The partition 22 is used to separate the pressure regulating chamber 21 from the space inside the housing 2. The sealing cover 6 is used to isolate the core 1 and the housing 2 to prevent the leakage of gas generated by the aging of the core 1, and controls the movement of the partition 22 through its connection with the partition 22.
[0021] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the sealing cover 6 is made of rubber and has a folded layer 61. Reinforcing rings 62 are provided on the folded layer 61, and tension bands 63 are provided between the reinforcing rings 62. The folded layer 61 allows the sealing cover 6 to change volume, increasing the internal space and reducing the gas pressure when the core 1 releases gas. Simultaneously, the elastic rubber material effectively prevents the sealing cover 6 from being bursting from the inside. The reinforcing rings 62 increase the strength of the folded layer 61, and the tension bands 63 strengthen the sealing cover 6, preventing the valve 5 from opening due to rapid pushing of the released gas.
[0022] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, a slider 621 is provided on the reinforcing ring 62, and a groove 23 is provided inside the housing 2. The slider 621 and the groove 23 cooperate to guide the reinforcing ring 62 to prevent it from twisting and pulling when the gas is released, which would damage the tension band 63, and guide the unfolding direction of the sealing cover 6.
[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a fixing block 31 extends from the mounting cover 3, and a fixing groove 24 is provided on the housing 2. A bolt 7 passes through the fixing block 31 and the fixing groove 24. The fixing block 31 and the fixing groove 24 are provided to fix the mounting cover 3 and the housing 2 together, thereby fixing the core 1 to the housing 2, so that the core 1 is in a fixed position inside the housing 2.
[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, valve 5 is equipped with a first connecting rod 52, and partition 22 is equipped with a second connecting rod 221. A buffer pad 521 is installed inside the first connecting rod 52, and a return spring 522 is installed between the buffer pad 521 and the second connecting rod 221. The first connecting rod 52 and the second connecting rod 221 work together to drive the thrust on partition 22 to valve 5. The buffer pad 521 and the return spring 522 are used to prevent the first connecting rod 52 and the second connecting rod 221 from being damaged due to excessive thrust. The return spring 522 is also used to reset partition 22 for easy reuse.
[0025] like Figure 2As shown, valve 5 extends with a buffer plate 53, and a pressure spring 531 is provided between the buffer plate 53 and the pressure regulating chamber 21. The buffer plate 53 is used to cooperate with the pressure spring 531 to determine the air pressure threshold for opening valve 5, and at the same time reset valve 5 for easy reuse.
[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, valve 5 is provided with a sealing cone 54, and a sealing sleeve 8 is installed outside the sealing cone 54. A sealing protrusion 81 extends from the sealing sleeve 8. The sealing cone 54 is used to limit the inward displacement of valve 5 and prevent valve 5 from going too deep into housing 2 due to pressure spring 531. At the same time, the pressure spring 531 and the sealing sleeve 8 help to close the pressure relief hole 211. The sealing protrusion 81 is used to add a bend at the pressure relief hole 211 and the sealing cone 54 to improve the sealing performance.

Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications or additions to the described specific embodiments or use similar methods to substitute them, without departing from the spirit of this utility model or exceeding the scope defined by the appended claims.
[0028] Although this document uses a variety of terms, the possibility of using other terms is not excluded. These terms are used merely for the convenience of describing and explaining the essence of this invention; interpreting them as any additional limitation would contradict the spirit of this invention.
