Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a touchable European-style insulating cap. Background Technology

[0002] A touchable European-style insulating cap is a protective device used at the cable termination of electrical equipment. It typically consists of a cap body and a bushing base. Its main function is to provide reliable insulation and protection at the interface between the cable termination and the electrical equipment, preventing accidental contact with high-voltage live parts and improving operational safety. Typical applications include medium- and low-voltage power distribution equipment such as ring main units, switchgear, and transformers, enabling insulation sealing of cable ports under energized operating conditions.

[0003] Existing touchable European-style insulating caps mostly use an interference fit between the insulating cap body and the sleeve seat. While this structure can achieve a certain degree of fixation, it still has the following drawbacks: due to the interference fit structure, a large external force is required during installation or disassembly, which can easily damage the insulating cap or sleeve seat, affecting the convenience of subsequent maintenance and replacement.

The unlocking rod includes an unlocking rod body and an unlocking rod operating handle. The unlocking rod body passes through the locking seat through hole and is connected to the locking block. The unlocking rod operating handle is located outside the cylinder locking seat. The locking spring is sleeved on the unlocking rod body, with one end abutting against the locking block and the other end abutting against the spring limiting groove. The bushing seat includes a bushing seat mating platform and a bushing seat conical head. The end of the bushing seat conical head is provided with a bushing seat threaded hole. The bushing seat mating platform is provided with a bushing seat limiting groove. The bushing seat conical head is placed in the conical groove of the insulating cylinder. The bushing seat mating platform is placed in the positioning groove of the insulating cylinder. The locking block is locked in the bushing seat limiting groove.

[0006] The outer end of the unlocking lever operating handle is provided with an operating handle edging that covers the cylinder locking seat.

[0007] The number of the cylinder locking seat and the number of the insulating cap locking assembly are both two.

[0008] The locking block is made of insulating rubber.

Detailed Implementation

[0013] like Figure 1-9As shown, the present invention relates to a touchable European-style insulating cap, comprising an insulating cap assembly 1 and a sleeve seat 2 that interlocks with the insulating cap assembly 1. The insulating cap assembly 1 includes an insulating cap body 4 and an insulating cap locking assembly 8. The insulating cap locking assembly 8 includes a locking block 5, a locking spring 6, and an unlocking rod 7. The insulating cap body 4 includes an insulating cap cylinder 10 and a cylinder locking seat 11 that is spaced around the outer wall of the end of the insulating cap cylinder 10 in an arc. One end of the insulating cap cylinder 10 is provided with interconnected insulating... The insulating cylinder includes a positioning groove 12, a conical groove 13, and an inner recessed groove 14. The cylinder locking seat 11 has a spring limiting groove 16 communicating with the positioning groove 12. The bottom of the spring limiting groove 16 has a locking seat through hole 17. The locking block 5 is cylindrical, with an outer diameter smaller than the diameter of the spring limiting groove 16. The unlocking rod 7 includes an unlocking rod body 20 and an unlocking rod operating handle 21. The unlocking rod body 20 passes through the locking seat through hole 17 and connects to the locking block 5. The locking lever operating handle 21 is located outside the cylinder locking seat 11. The locking spring 6 is sleeved on the unlocking lever body 20, with one end abutting against the locking block 5 and the other end abutting against the spring limiting groove 16. The sleeve seat 2 includes a sleeve seat mating platform 25 and a sleeve seat conical head 24. The end of the sleeve seat conical head 24 is provided with a sleeve seat threaded hole 26.
