Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sensor technology, specifically to a magnetic energy harvesting sensor and a DC power supply cabinet that uses the magnetic energy harvesting sensor. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of power transmission, bolted fastening structures are commonly used for the connection points of critical equipment such as transformers, switchgear, and DC power supply cabinets. These bolted connections are weak points in equipment operation, and are highly susceptible to loosening due to long-term mechanical vibration, thermal expansion and contraction, oxidation and corrosion. Loose bolts lead to increased contact resistance at the connection points, generating additional Joule heat when current flows, causing abnormally high local temperatures. If not detected in time, this can lead to serious faults such as insulation aging, metal melting, or even arcing, causing not only equipment damage and production interruptions but also potential safety accidents such as fires and electric shocks, resulting in huge economic losses for enterprises and even threatening personnel lives. Therefore, real-time and reliable temperature monitoring of bolted connections in critical equipment is an important means of ensuring the safe and stable operation of industrial systems.

[0003] Currently, temperature measurement methods using temperature sensors in bolts typically involve attaching thermistors, thermocouples, or other sensors to the surface of the bolt or equipment housing using tape or adhesive. However, this method creates an air gap or an insulating layer formed by the adhesive between the sensor and the bolt. Air and most adhesives have extremely low thermal conductivity, severely hindering temperature conduction. Furthermore, vibrations and temperature changes in industrial environments can cause the adhesive layer to age and detach, leading to the sensor losing contact with the bolt and completely losing its temperature conduction capability, resulting in monitoring failure. Some solutions attempt to integrate the temperature sensor into the bolt for direct temperature measurement, but due to structural design limitations, these integrated bolts require custom manufacturing, are costly, and cannot be compatible with standard bolts in existing equipment, resulting in extremely poor versatility and hindering large-scale application.

[0004] Therefore, a more optimized sensor structure is needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The primary objective of this invention is to provide a magnetic energy extraction sensor that can improve temperature detection accuracy and bolt compatibility.

[0006] The second objective of this invention is to provide a DC power supply cabinet that improves temperature detection accuracy and bolt compatibility.

[0007] To achieve the aforementioned first objective, the magnetic energy harvesting sensor provided by this utility model includes a main housing, a metal mounting bracket, and metal bolts. The main housing is mounted on the metal mounting bracket by the metal bolts. The main housing is provided with a circuit cavity and a mounting through hole, which penetrates through the top and bottom of the main housing. The circuit cavity and the mounting through hole are connected, and the metal bolts pass through the mounting through hole. A circuit board is installed inside the circuit cavity. The circuit board is provided with a temperature measuring circuit and a temperature measuring heat conduction component. The temperature measuring heat conduction component is screwed to the metal bolts, and the temperature measuring circuit is used to monitor the temperature of the temperature measuring heat conduction component.

[0008] As can be seen from the above scheme, the magnetic energy harvesting sensor of this utility model uses a metal mounting bracket to connect the bolt to be tested, and a temperature-sensing heat conduction component is set on the circuit board. The heat conduction component is screwed to the metal bolt, thereby achieving temperature conduction of the bolt to be tested through the metal mounting bracket, the metal bolt, and the temperature-sensing heat conduction component, improving the temperature detection accuracy. At the same time, using the metal mounting bracket to connect the bolt to be tested facilitates the adaptation to various types of bolts.

[0009] In a further embodiment, the circuit board is also equipped with a magnetic induction energy harvesting module and a battery management module. The magnetic induction energy harvesting module supplies power to the battery management module, which in turn supplies power to the circuit components of the circuit board.

[0010] It is evident that by setting up a magnetic induction energy harvesting module and a battery management module, it is easy to harvest magnetic energy using an electric field, eliminating the need for additional power wiring and reducing construction difficulty and cost.

[0011] In a further embodiment, a power push switch is also provided on the circuit board, and a switch through hole is provided on the side of the main housing near the metal mounting bracket. The pressing part of the power push switch passes through the switch through hole and abuts against the metal mounting bracket.

[0012] Therefore, by setting a switch through hole in the main housing, allowing the power switch pressing part to pass through the switch through hole and abut against the metal mounting bracket, the switch can be turned on to supply power immediately after the sensor is installed, thus preventing operators from forgetting to turn on the power switch after installation.

[0013] In a further embodiment, an indicator light is provided on the circuit board, and an indicator through hole is provided on the main housing, into which the indicator light is inserted.

[0014] Therefore, by setting indicator lights, the status of the sensor can be easily indicated so that users can be informed.

[0015] In a further design, a wireless communication circuit is also installed on the circuit board.

[0016] Therefore, by setting up a wireless communication circuit, wireless data transmission can be facilitated and wiring can be simplified.

[0017] In a further proposed solution, the temperature-sensing heat transfer element is a metal heat transfer element.

[0018] Therefore, it can be seen that by using metal heat conduction components, the temperature conduction speed can be increased, thereby improving the accuracy of detection.

[0019] In a further embodiment, an anti-slip pad is installed on the side of the main housing near the metal mounting bracket, and the anti-slip pad is in contact with the metal mounting bracket.

[0020] Therefore, by installing an anti-slip pad on the side of the main housing near the metal mounting bracket, the stability of the sensor can be ensured during installation.

[0021] In a further embodiment, the main housing includes an upper housing and a lower housing, which are detachably connected.

[0022] Therefore, it can be seen that by setting up detachable upper and lower housings, the main housing can facilitate the installation and removal of the sensor.

[0023] In a further design, the upper and lower housings are detachably connected via a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0024] Therefore, it can be seen that by setting up a snap-fit ​​structure to connect the upper and lower housings, the installation efficiency can be improved.

[0025] To achieve the second objective of this utility model, the DC power supply cabinet provided by this utility model is equipped with a magnetic energy harvesting sensor, which is the aforementioned magnetic energy harvesting sensor. Attached Figure Description
