Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical engineering technology, specifically to a power pipeline. Background Technology
[0002] A power pipeline is a specialized conduit used for laying and protecting underground power transmission cables. These pipelines play a crucial role in power transmission, ensuring the safe and reliable transmission of electricity. However, power pipelines face several challenges in practical applications: First, the internal insulation material is temperature-sensitive and prone to aging in high-temperature environments, leading to a gradual decline in insulation performance. Second, the physical properties of the power pipeline are incompatible with the surrounding soil, making it susceptible to deformation or breakage in areas with frequent geological activity, resulting in cable damage. Furthermore, the cable connections within the pipeline typically use traditional metal joints, which may be subject to electrochemical corrosion over long-term operation, leading to poor contact, increased resistance, or even localized overheating, further threatening the safe operation of the power system. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an electric conduit to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an electrical conduit, comprising:
[0005] The main conduit is used to house the cables;
[0006] A high-temperature insulating coating is applied to the inner wall of the main pipeline to reduce the aging of the insulation material caused by temperature rise.
[0007] A flexible support structure is installed on the outer wall of the main pipeline to provide deformation-resistant protection in areas with frequent geological activity.
[0008] Mechanical connectors are used for cable connections. They are fixed by mechanical crimping, avoiding the electrochemical corrosion problems of traditional metal connectors.
[0009] The heat insulation layer, located between the inner wall of the main pipe and the high-temperature insulating coating, is used to further improve the heat insulation effect and prevent high temperature from being conducted to the cable.
[0010] The high-temperature insulating coating is made of a material with high temperature resistance and low coefficient of thermal expansion, which can remain stable in high-temperature environments and prevent the insulation material from aging. The elastic support structure is made of a highly elastic material, which can resist external pressure and deformation in areas with frequent geological activity and prevent pipeline damage. The mechanical joint is made of an alloy material with good corrosion resistance and conductivity to ensure stable connection during long-term operation and avoid poor contact and local overheating caused by electrochemical corrosion.
[0011] Preferably, the thickness of the high-temperature insulating coating is 0mm to 2.0mm, and nano-alumina is used as the main component to enhance its high-temperature stability and effectively reduce the decrease in insulation performance caused by temperature changes.
[0012] Preferably, the heat insulation layer adopts a multi-layer structure design, including at least two alternating layers of graphene sheets and a silica microporous foam layer. The graphene sheets have excellent thermal conductivity and shielding effect, and the silica microporous foam layer has good heat insulation effect, so as to minimize the impact of high temperature on the cable.
[0013] Preferably, a graphene film with a thickness of 1 mm is disposed between the high-temperature insulating coating and the heat insulation layer, which can further improve the overall thermal resistance and conductivity, prevent heat conduction to the cable, and ensure electrical insulation performance.
[0014] Preferably, the elastic support structure is provided with multiple annular reinforcing ribs spaced apart along the axial direction of the main pipeline. The annular reinforcing ribs are made of high-strength stainless steel, which can provide better deformation protection during frequent geological activities such as earthquakes and prevent the pipeline from being damaged by external pressure.
[0015] Preferably, the outer surface of the elastic support structure is coated with an anti-corrosion and corrosion-resistant layer. This anti-corrosion and corrosion-resistant layer is made of polytetrafluoroethylene material, which can effectively resist chemical corrosion in the soil and extend the service life of the power pipeline.
[0016] Preferably, the mechanical connector includes a metal connecting sleeve with a conductive tape embedded inside. The conductive tape is made of a polymer composite material with self-healing function, which can ensure the stability of the cable connection and avoid poor contact caused by vibration and other factors.
[0017] Preferably, the mechanical connector further includes a protective cover, which is fitted over the outside of the metal connecting sleeve and is made of polyethylene material. This effectively prevents moisture from entering the connector and prevents electrochemical corrosion.
[0018] Preferably, the thickness of the insulation layer is a multiple of the main pipe wall thickness, ensuring a highly efficient thermal insulation effect and further protecting the cable from the effects of high-temperature environments.
[0019] Preferably, the high-temperature insulating coating is applied by spraying to form a uniform and dense film. Before spraying, the inner wall of the main pipeline needs to be surface treated to remove oil and impurities to ensure the adhesion and stability of the coating.
[0020] Preferably, the elastic support structure further includes multiple fixing points, which are evenly distributed on the outer circumference of the elastic support structure and fixed to the foundation by bolts, thereby enhancing the overall stability and seismic performance of the pipeline.
[0021] Preferably, the mechanical connector further includes a pressure monitoring device installed inside the metal connecting sleeve, which can monitor the pressure status of the cable connection point in real time, provide timely warnings of potential faults, and ensure the safe operation of the power system.

[0025] 3. This power conduit can solve the problem that the cable connection points in the power conduit use traditional metal joints, which may become poorly contacted due to electrochemical corrosion during long-term operation, leading to increased resistance and localized overheating.
