Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of dry-type transformer insulation components, and in particular to a resin-cast insulation cylinder structure for dry-type transformers. Background Technology
[0002] A transformer is a static electrical device that converts AC voltage and current of one level into voltage and current of another level at the same frequency based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. It is widely used in power transmission, power conversion and power distribution.
[0003] Dry-type transformers are widely used in key areas such as load centers due to their excellent flame retardancy, explosion-proof, and maintenance-free properties. Dry-type transformers mainly rely on solid insulation materials and air as the insulation medium to ensure electrical safety performance. When the transformer voltage is high, especially when the high and low voltage coils of 10kV and above are only insulated by air, the distance between the high and low voltage coils must be increased to maintain electrical safety. Such a structure will make the overall size of the transformer larger and increase the manufacturing cost significantly.
[0004] To reduce the distance between the high and low voltage coils, an insulating cylinder is placed between them to improve the electric field distribution. The insulating cylinder is made of glass fiber wound cylinder, glass cloth cylinder, or polyethylene terephthalate plastic cylinder, etc. The cost of using these insulating cylinders is relatively high. In addition, because the materials of these insulating cylinders are different from those of the transformer's high voltage coils, there is a difference in dielectric constant, which may cause uneven electric field distribution and easily generate partial discharge, which is detrimental to the safe operation of the transformer. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a resin-cast insulating cylinder structure for dry-type transformers, which reduces the manufacturing cost of the insulating cylinder and improves the economic efficiency of transformer production while meeting electrical requirements.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a resin casting insulating cylinder structure for dry-type transformers, including an insulating outer wall and an insulating inner wall, wherein an insulating cavity is formed between the insulating outer wall and the insulating inner wall;
[0007] At least one layer of glass fiber mesh is placed inside the insulating cavity;
[0008] The insulating cavity is filled with insulating epoxy resin, and the insulating epoxy resin penetrates into the gaps of the glass fiber mesh layer.
[0009] Preferably, the glass fiber mesh layer is rolled into a sleeve shape and placed between the insulating outer wall and the insulating inner wall.
[0010] Preferably, the glass fiber mesh layer has multiple layers, which are arranged from the inside to the outside between the insulating outer wall and the insulating inner wall.
[0011] Preferably, the insulating epoxy resin filling the insulating cavity is a two-component insulating epoxy resin.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] The resin-cast insulating cylinder structure of this invention has good mechanical strength and does not deform during use, allowing for excellent control of the insulation distance between high and low voltage. Furthermore, the raw materials used to manufacture the insulating cylinder are consistent with the insulating material of the high-voltage coil, sharing the same dielectric constant. This results in a more uniform electric field distribution between the transformer coils, high withstand voltage, and meets the electrical insulation performance requirements between high and low voltage transformers, ensuring safe operation and extending the transformer's service life. Moreover, the manufacturing cost of this resin-cast insulating cylinder is lower than that of purchased glass fiber winding cylinders, glass cloth cylinders, or polyethylene terephthalate plastic cylinders, resulting in significant economic benefits.

[0018] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. The advantages and features of the present invention will become clearer from the following description and claims. It should be noted that the drawings are all in a very simplified form and use non-precise proportions, and are only used to facilitate and clarify the illustration of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0019] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", and "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0020] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. Example
[0021] This utility model provides a resin-cast insulating cylinder structure for dry-type transformers. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-3 It includes an insulating outer wall 1 and an insulating inner wall 2, with an insulating cavity 3 formed between the insulating outer wall 1 and the insulating inner wall 2; at least one layer of glass fiber mesh 4 is placed in the insulating cavity 3; the insulating cavity 3 is filled with insulating epoxy resin 5, and the insulating epoxy resin 5 penetrates into the gaps of the glass fiber mesh layer 4.
[0022] Specifically, the glass fiber mesh layer 4 is rolled into a sleeve shape and placed between the insulating outer wall 1 and the insulating inner wall 2.
[0023] Furthermore, the glass fiber mesh layer 4 is provided in multiple layers, and is arranged from the inside to the outside between the insulating outer wall 1 and the insulating inner wall 2.
[0024] In this embodiment, the insulating epoxy resin 5 filling the insulating cavity 3 is a two-component insulating epoxy resin.
[0025] A resin-cast insulating cylinder is formed using a casting mold. A glass fiber mesh layer 4 of a certain thickness is wrapped around the inner mold of the casting mold according to the design requirements. Then, the glass fiber mesh layer 4 is wrapped around the outer mold. Two-component insulating epoxy resin 5 is cast under vacuum conditions in the casting equipment to allow the resin to fully penetrate into the glass fiber mesh layer 4. After high-temperature curing, the cylinder is demolded to form a rigid resin-cast insulating cylinder.
[0026] By adopting this new type of resin insulation cylinder structure for dry-type transformers, the high mechanical strength of resin casting insulation ensures it does not deform during use and allows for excellent control of the insulation distance between high and low voltage. Furthermore, the raw materials used to manufacture the insulation cylinder are consistent with the insulation material of the high-voltage coil, sharing the same dielectric constant. This results in a more uniform electric field distribution between the transformer coils, higher withstand voltage, and compliance with the electrical insulation performance requirements between high and low voltage levels, ensuring the safe operation and extended service life of the transformer. The manufacturing cost of this resin casting insulation cylinder is lower than that of purchased glass fiber winding cylinders, glass cloth cylinders, or polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic cylinders, resulting in significant economic benefits and enhancing the competitiveness of the business.
