Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of explosion-proof connector technology, specifically to an explosion-proof cable connector with a heat dissipation structure. Background Technology
[0002] Explosion-proof cable joint boxes are specialized devices used to enclose and protect cable joints. They are widely used in flammable and explosive hazardous environments such as petroleum, chemical, and mining industries. Through special sealing and explosion-proof design, they effectively prevent external explosive gases, dust, and other hazardous substances from contacting internal electrical components. They also resist external damage such as mechanical impact and corrosion, preventing explosions caused by cable joint discharge or overheating, and ensuring the safe and stable operation of electrical systems.
[0003] Application No. 202221689365.6 discloses an explosion-proof box for cable joints. This explosion-proof box for cable joints has two pressure relief ports, and each pressure relief port has a sealing block on its inner wall. When inspecting the inside of the first and second housings, the sealing block can be pulled out of the pressure relief port for inspection. After the cable joint explodes, the internal pressure of the first and second housings will push the sealing block outward until the sealing block is detached from the pressure relief port, thereby completing the pressure relief of the inside of the first and second housings.
[0004] The aforementioned devices lack an effective heat dissipation structure. During long-term use, the heat generated by current transmission in the cable joints cannot be dissipated in time, leading to a continuous increase in the internal temperature of the box. High temperatures not only accelerate the aging of the cable joints and internal insulation materials, reducing electrical performance and increasing the risk of short circuits and leakage, but may also cause a sudden increase in internal pressure due to heat accumulation, resulting in the failure of the explosion-proof box seal or even bursting, which in turn can lead to serious safety accidents such as fires and explosions. Therefore, we propose a cable explosion-proof joint with a heat dissipation structure. Utility Model Content

The mounting block 4 is fixed to the outer wall of the two housings, providing a mounting base for the heat sink 7 and the limiting assembly. The cable passes through the inner cylinder 6 between the first and second explosion-proof housings, and the connector is placed inside and protected. During operation, the heat generated by the cable is transferred sequentially through the inner cylinder 6 and the heat-conducting plate 5 to the first and second explosion-proof housings, and finally dissipated to the outside by the heat sink 7 on the outer wall. The connecting rod 8, the magnetic rod 9 and other components in the limiting assembly cooperate to realize the installation and limiting of the heat sink 7.
[0041] An inner cylinder 6 is provided between the first explosion-proof housing 1 and the second explosion-proof housing 2;
[0042] When the cable generates heat during operation, the heat is directly transferred to the inner cylinder 6. The inner cylinder 6 then conducts the heat to the first and second explosion-proof shells through the heat-conducting plates 5 fixedly fitted to its outer wall, providing a stable path for the transfer and dissipation of heat.

[0047] Bolt 10 is located between the side wall of the first iron block 12 and the side wall of the mounting block 4;
[0048] The circular grooves 13 are respectively formed on the side wall of the first iron block 12 and the side wall of the second iron block 14;
[0049] The second iron block 14 is fixedly connected to the end of the mounting block 4 away from the first iron block 12;
[0050] Magnet rod 9 matches the circular groove 13;
[0051] When it is necessary to add heat sink 7, rotate bolt 10 to loosen the fixation on the first iron block 12, pull connecting rod 8 to disengage magnet rod 9 from the circular groove 13 on the first iron block 12 and the second iron block 14, and release the fixation on heat sink 7; slide the middle of heat sink 7 into the guide groove 11 on mounting block 4, adjust the number, put the first iron block 12 back into the guide groove 11, tighten bolt 10 to fix it, at this time magnet rod 9 is inserted into circular groove 13, and fixed by magnetic attraction, so that the side wall of connecting rod 8 abuts against heat sink 7 to complete the limit; through the coordinated design of inner cylinder 6, heat-conducting plate 5 and heat sink 7, a perfect heat dissipation channel is constructed. It can quickly conduct and dissipate the heat generated by the cable joint. Compared with existing devices that lack heat dissipation structure, it effectively avoids the problem of excessive temperature inside the box, reduces the aging speed of cable joints and insulation materials, and reduces the risk of electrical faults such as short circuits and leakage. The magnetic rod 9 and the circular groove 13 in the limit component, as well as the bolt 10 fixing the first iron block 12, ensure the stability of the heat sink 7 after installation. Under the condition that the device is subjected to external vibration, collision, etc., the heat sink 7 is not easy to loosen and fall off, ensuring the continuous and stable performance of the heat dissipation function, and also enhancing the overall reliability of the explosion-proof joint structure.

[0053] The heat-conducting plates 5 on the inner walls of the first explosion-proof housing 1 and the second explosion-proof housing 2 are closely attached to the outer wall of the inner cylinder 6. When the inner cylinder 6 generates heat due to the operation of the cable, the heat-conducting plates 5, with their excellent thermal conductivity, quickly conduct the heat from the inner cylinder 6 to the inner walls of the first and second explosion-proof housings, and then the heat dissipation plates 7 on the outer wall of the housing further dissipate the heat, forming an efficient heat conduction path.
[0054] The heat-conducting plate 5 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the inner cylinder 6;
[0055] The heat generated by the cable is directly transferred to the inner cylinder 6, and can be quickly conducted to the first and second explosion-proof shells through the heat-conducting plate 5 without obstruction, so that the heat is transferred with the shortest path and the highest efficiency.
[0056] Both the outer walls of the first explosion-proof housing 1 and the second explosion-proof housing 2 are provided with threaded holes 3;

[0061] Mounting Block 4: Two sets of mounting blocks 4 are fixed to the outer walls of the two explosion-proof housings, providing a mounting base for the heat sink 7 and the limiting component; the guide groove 11 on it cooperates with the limiting component to realize the installation, fixing and quantity adjustment of the heat sink 7.
[0062] Heat-conducting plate 5: Located on the inner wall of the two explosion-proof shells, and fitted onto the outer wall of the inner cylinder 6. With its high thermal conductivity, it quickly conducts heat from the inner cylinder 6 to the shell, and is a key component for transferring heat from the cable connector to the heat sink 7, thus improving heat dissipation efficiency.
[0063] Inner cylinder 6: Located between the two explosion-proof shells, it allows cables to pass through and accommodates cable joints; it provides an independent protective space and serves as the starting point for heat transfer, working in conjunction with the heat-conducting plate 5 to promptly dissipate the heat generated by the cable joints.
[0064] Heat sink 7: Installed on the outer wall of the two explosion-proof housings, the number of which can be adjusted as needed; it works in conjunction with heat conduction plate 5 and explosion-proof housing to dissipate heat from the inside to the outside, reduce the temperature of the device, and prevent the cable joints from being damaged due to overheating.
[0065] Connecting rod 8: It is located on the side wall of the mounting block 4 and contacts the heat sink 7 for limiting its position; it is connected to magnetic rods 9 at both ends, which cooperate with the circular grooves 13 of the first iron block 12 and the second iron block 14 to realize the installation and removal of the heat sink 7.
[0066] Magnetic rod 9: Fixed to both ends of connecting rod 8 and matched with circular groove 13; using magnetic attraction, it helps connecting rod 8 to fix heat sink 7, ensuring that heat sink 7 is stable during use and will not fall off due to vibration, etc.
[0067] Bolt 10: Connects the first iron block 12 to the mounting block 4 and is used to fix the first iron block 12; by turning the bolt 10, the fixed state of the first iron block 12 in the guide groove 11 is controlled, thereby realizing the installation and disassembly control of the heat sink 7.
[0068] Guide groove 11: At one end of the mounting block 4, it accommodates the first iron block 12 and the heat sink 7; it provides a track for the sliding of the first iron block 12, guides the installation of the heat sink 7, and assists in completing the installation and quantity adjustment of the heat sink 7.
[0069] First iron block 12: slides in guide groove 11 and is fixed by bolt 10; cooperates with second iron block 14, and is attracted to magnetic rod 9 through circular groove 13, adjusting and fixing heat sink 7 in limiting assembly.
[0070] Circular groove 13: On the side wall of the first iron block 12 and the second iron block 14, it matches the magnetic rod 9; by adsorbing the magnetic rod 9, the connecting rod 8 is fixed, thereby limiting the heat sink 7 and ensuring its stability after installation.
[0071] The second iron block 14 is fixed on the mounting block 4 and cooperates with the first iron block 12; it is attracted to the magnetic rod 9 through the circular groove 13 and assists in the installation, fixing and limiting of the heat sink 7 in the limiting assembly.
[0072] The first explosion-proof housing 1 and the second explosion-proof housing 2 are connected and fixed through the threaded hole 3 to form the main structure of the explosion-proof joint. The cable passes through the inner cylinder 6 to achieve cable positioning and installation. The inner cylinder 6 provides a stable space for the cable and, together with the explosion-proof housing, creates a protective environment. When the cable joint generates heat due to current transmission, the heat is first transferred to the inner cylinder 6. The heat-conducting plates 5 fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the inner cylinder 6 quickly conduct the heat to the first explosion-proof housing 1 and the second explosion-proof housing 2. Subsequently, several heat dissipation fins 7 set on the outer walls of the first explosion-proof housing 1 and the second explosion-proof housing 2 dissipate the heat. To effectively dissipate internal heat in the external environment, when it is necessary to add heat sink 7, rotate bolt 10 to release the fixation of the first iron block 12, pull connecting rod 8 to make the magnet rod 9 disengage from the circular groove 13 on the first iron block 12 and the second iron block 14, remove the first iron block 12 from the guide groove 11, slide the middle of the heat sink 7 into the guide groove 11, after installation, put the first iron block 12 back into the guide groove 11 and fix it with bolt 10, the connecting rod 8 drives the magnet rod 9 to insert into the circular groove 13, and use the adsorption force of the magnet rod 9 and the limiting effect of the connecting rod 8 to achieve a stable fixation of the heat sink 7.
