Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of transformer manufacturing technology, and relates to a live flange type pipe connection structure suitable for transformer design and manufacturing. Background Technology

[0002] In traditional transformer design, there are not many connecting components for transformer pipes. However, with the current requirements for intelligent and information-based transformers, there are more and more intelligent components connected to the transformer body through pipes. For example, intelligent components such as single hydrogen online monitoring, breather, and oil drain pipe all need to be fixedly connected to the transformer body through pipe connection structures.

[0003] The design and manufacturing of transformers need to adapt to current requirements such as intelligent information technology. This necessitates higher precision requirements for the connection between various intelligent components and connecting pipes compared to the past. Furthermore, the addition of these intelligent components places more stringent demands on the welding direction of the original connecting pipe flanges. Under the old fixed structure of the connecting pipe flanges, the flange faces of the connecting pipes and the intelligent component flange faces are prone to corresponding tolerances, frequently leading to technical problems such as large installation deviations, connection interference, and unreliable fixed connections. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the connecting pipe connection structure to reduce connection interference and unreliable connections caused by process errors and environmental factors. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the technical problems mentioned above, this utility model proposes a novel, universal transformer flange-type pipe connection structure. The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A flanged pipe connection structure includes a first pipe, an outer flange of the first pipe, an inner flange of the first pipe, and a sealing gasket. The outer flange of the first pipe has several through bolt holes evenly distributed around its circumference. A circular outer flange step is formed at the lower inner circumference of the outer flange. A circular inner flange step is formed at the upper outer circumference of the inner flange of the first pipe. The inner flange step and the outer flange step are engaged and connected. A circular sealing groove is formed on the lower surface of the inner flange of the first pipe, and the sealing gasket is installed in the sealing groove. The upper end of the inner flange of the first pipe is fitted onto the lower end of the first pipe and welded to the first pipe.

[0005] Preferably, the two ends of the connecting pipe are welded to the connecting pipe flange, and the connecting pipe flange has a bolt hole two corresponding to the bolt hole one. The bolt end passes through the bolt hole one and the bolt hole two, and the bolt end is threaded to connect to the nut.

[0006] Preferably, the connecting pipe is a DN25 connecting pipe, or a DN50 connecting pipe, or a DN80 connecting pipe, or a DN100 connecting pipe.

[0007] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: The connection structure of this utility model is mainly used for the fixed connection of intelligent components of transformers with connecting pipes or bent pipes. It features convenient adjustment and installation, excellent fastening and sealing, and avoids interference caused by tolerances or troublesome adjustments during connecting pipes. It not only has the prospect of wide application, but also greatly reduces the difficulty of adjustment during connecting pipe installation and shortens the on-site installation and adjustment time.

Detailed Implementation

[0009] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The specific implementation process is as follows: like Figure 1-3As shown, a flanged pipe connection structure includes a connecting pipe 1, an outer flange 2, an inner flange 3, and a circular sealing gasket 4. The outer flange 2 has several through bolt holes 9 evenly distributed around its circumference, and a circular outer flange step 11 is formed at the lower inner edge of its inner circumference. The inner flange 3 has a circular inner flange step 12 at its upper outer circumference. The inner flange step 12 and the outer flange step 11 are engaged and connected. A circular sealing groove 10 is formed on the lower surface of the inner flange 3, and the sealing gasket 4 is installed in the sealing groove 10. The upper end of the inner flange 3 is fitted onto the lower end of the connecting pipe 1 and welded to it. The lower end of the connecting pipe 1 is located inside the inner flange 3 and cannot protrude.

[0010] The present invention provides a flanged pipe connection structure, the installation and use steps of which are as follows: First, fit the outer flange 2 of the connecting pipe onto the outer circumference of the end of the connecting pipe 1. Then, fit the inner flange 3 of the connecting pipe onto the outer circumference of the end of the connecting pipe 1. The inner flange step 12 and the outer flange step 11 are engaged and locked together. Weld the upper surface of the inner flange 3 of the connecting pipe to the outer circumference of the connecting pipe 1 to form a single unit. During welding, care should be taken to ensure that the weld bead does not extend beyond the edge of the upper surface of the inner flange 3 of the connecting pipe to avoid affecting the adjustment and rotation of the outer flange 2 of the connecting pipe.

[0011] After welding the inner flange 3 of the connecting pipe, place the sealing gasket 4 in the sealing groove 10. Figure 1 The connecting pipe 7 is a common ordinary connecting pipe connection structure. A connecting pipe flange 8 is welded to the upper end of connecting pipe 7. A bolt hole 2 is opened on connecting pipe flange 8, corresponding to bolt hole 9. Bolt 5 is passed through bolt hole 1 and bolt hole 2 from top to bottom. A nut 6 is threaded onto the lower end of bolt 5. Connecting pipe 1 and connecting pipe 7 are connected together using bolt 5 and nut 6. Then, by rotating connecting pipe 7 on the side of connecting pipe flange 8, the direction and angle of connecting pipe 7 can be finely adjusted. After connecting pipe 7 is adjusted to the correct position, nut 6 is tightened for final security. The sealing gasket 4 between connecting pipe flange 8 and the inner flange 3 of connecting pipe 1 ensures a good sealing effect between connecting pipe 1 and connecting pipe 7.

[0012] The connecting pipe 1 can be made of standardized pipes of various specifications such as DN25, DN50, DN80, and DN100 to suit different design requirements. For example, a DN25 connecting pipe can be used for the installation of transformer breather, while a DN80 connecting pipe can be used for the installation of circuit breakers and oil drain lines. Taking breather installation as an example, connecting pipe 1 is a reserved connection port on the transformer body side, and connecting pipe 2 7 can be regarded as the breather interface. The live flange connecting pipe connection structure designed in this embodiment of the utility model can eliminate the manufacturing tolerances between connecting pipe 1 and connecting pipe 2 7 by fine-tuning connecting pipe 2 7, thereby quickly completing the installation of the breather.

[0013] There are no special requirements for the surface roughness of the outer flange 2 of the connecting pipe, while the surface roughness of the inner flange 3 of the connecting pipe can be in accordance with the standard requirements.

[0014] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely specific implementations of this utility model, used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and not to limit it. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto.
