Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an improved bushing insulator of the type used for low voltages (1 to 3 kV) and for currents from 100 to 6500 A, to be applied, for example, to the tank of a transformer.
  • the bushing insulators allow a live electrical conductor to pass through an obstacle, constituted for example by the tank of a transformer, ensuring a seal in terms of electrical voltage between the free end of the conductor and the point where the bushing insulator is anchored on the tank, with values which are sufficiently high with respect to the operating values.
  • the bushing insulators are currently constituted by a tie which acts as an electrical conductor, passes axially through an insulating part exposed to the air and located outside the tank and then engages and passes through an opening formed in the surface of the tank with an insulating part arranged inside the tank.
  • the insulating parts of the bushing insulator both the one that remains inside the tank and the one to be arranged externally, are made of ceramic material, preferably porcelain.
  • Porcelain in fact has characteristics adapted for insulation, because it ensures high rigidity, good mechanical strength and also good resistance to temperature variations.
  • the ceramic material is used in a mixture which is designed appropriately from the point of view of the composition and of the heat treatment to which it must be subjected.
  • the layer must have the same expansion coefficient as the porcelain, otherwise in the course of time surface cracks tend to form which may lead to the breakage of the insulator as they deepen.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a bushing insulator which solves the above-mentioned drawbacks of conventional types.
  • a consequent primary object of the present invention is to provide a bushing insulator of the type for low voltages, with values between 1 and 3 kV and for currents between 100 and 6500 A, which can be handled without requiring any particular care and which at the same time ensures improved insulation characteristics with respect to those ensured by conventional bushing insulators.
  • a further important object of the present invention is to provide a bushing insulator which can be obtained by assembling a smaller number of components than conventional types.
  • a further object is to provide a bushing insulator which allows to considerably simplify all the operations for its assembly and disassembly.
  • a further object is to provide a bushing insulator which requires no particular maintenance.
  • a further object is to provide a bushing insulator for low voltages which can be obtained at a significantly lower cost than conventional models.
  • a further object is to provide a bushing insulator whose constructive configuration can be obtained in practice by resorting to per se known processes.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide a bushing insulator which ensures greater impact resistance than conventional types and can thus be handled without requiring any special care or attention.
  • an electric transformer is generally designated by the reference numeral 10 and has a tank with radiators 11 to which high-voltage insulators 12 and low-voltage bushing insulators, generally designated by the reference numeral 13, are fixed at the upper part.
  • Each one of the low-voltage insulators 13 is of the type for low voltages (1 to 3 kV and currents from 100 to 6500 A) and is fixed to the upper part of the tank 11 at an opening 14 formed thereon.
  • Each bushing insulator 13 is predominantly elongated longitudinally and comprises a metallic tie 15 which is arranged along the main elongation axis 16, acts as an electrical conductor and has a threaded lower end 17 and a threaded upper end 18.
  • the tie 15 in the working configuration has an upper end 18 which remains outside the tank and a lower end 17 which, after passing through the opening 14, remains inside the tank 11.
  • Each bushing insulator 13 is provided with a part to be exposed to the air, which is generally designated by the reference numeral 19 and is crossed axially by the tie 15.
  • the part 19 to be exposed to the air comprises nuts 20 which are packed together and stacked starting from the upper end 18 of the tie 15, are internally threaded and lie above a hood 22.
  • the hood is substantially umbrella-shaped and is perforated in its central part, so that it is crossed by the tie 15.
  • the hood 22 is made of plastics, preferably a mix constituted by 70% of a material known as PBT and 30% glass fiber, and has excellent mechanical characteristics in terms of impact resistance and resistance to the direct action of weather.
  • the hood 22 can be made of a different material having equivalent physical and chemical characteristics.
  • annular gasket 23 of a per se known type (see Figure 3) which in this case has a semicircular transverse cross-section, with the flat part arranged internally at the tie 15.
  • annular gasket 23 ensures the seal in the axial direction and simultaneously in the radial direction as well.
  • the hood 22 is conveniently chamfered at the region in contact with the annular gasket 23.
  • an external insulating body 24 which is substantially bell-shaped and has a central through hole 25 through which the tie 15 passes.
  • a tubular extension 26 protrudes monolithically from the lower part of the external insulating body 24 and is coaxial to the through hole 25; its radial dimensions are smaller than the remaining part of the external insulating body 24 and are substantially complementary to the opening 14, so that it can be inserted in the tank 11.
  • the external insulating body 24 is made of plastics, and in this configuration it is obtained with a mixture constituted by 70% polyamide and 30% glass fiber.
  • the external insulating body 24 has excellent characteristics in terms of resistance to impacts and to the effects of weather.
  • the external insulating body 24 can be made of materials other than the above-mentioned one, provided that they have adequate mechanical and chemical characteristics.
  • the external insulating body 24 is to be packed against the upper part of the tank 11 at an annular portion 27 which is delimited externally by the bell-like shape and internally by the tubular extension 26.
  • a flat annular gasket 28 is interposed between the annular portion 27 and the tank 11, outside the opening 14, and has a rectangular cross-section; its outside diameter is conveniently smaller than the annular portion 27, so that the annular portion becomes a containment seat which protects it from the direct action of the weather when, in the operating configuration, it is packed together with the other components of the part 19 to be exposed to the air of the bushing insulator 13.
  • the bushing insulator 13 further comprises a part to be arranged inside the tank, which is designated by the reference numeral 29 and is constituted by an internal insulating body 30 which has, in this case, a structure which internally has a substantially hollow hexagonal transverse cross-section so as to allow the insertion of the tubular extension 26.
  • the internal insulating body 30 is to be placed in abutment against the inner face of the tank 11, while the lower end is provided with a bottom 31 which is monolithic therewith and forms a plane which is perpendicular to the longitudinal main axis 16.
  • a tubular tang 32 protrudes monolithically from the bottom 31 toward the inside of the insulating body 30 and wraps around the threaded lower end 17 of the tie 15.
  • the anchoring of the internal insulating body 30 to the tie 15 is particularly stable thanks to the presence of the thread in the lower end 17 surrounded by the tang 32.
  • the grip of the internal insulating body 30 on the tie 15 can be ensured by providing an adequate punching on the tie 15.
  • the internal insulating body 30, in this particular embodiment, is made of plastics by overmolding on the tie 15, so that the body and the tie form in practice a single part.
  • the internal insulating body 30 can be provided as a separate part by molding.
  • the internal insulating body 30 is made, in this case, of a plastic material which is resistant to the oils used inside the tanks 11 of transformers.
  • the bushing insulator 13 no longer needs to resort to a washer, to be fixed to the tie by brazing, tinning or punching, in order to lock the internal insulating part 29 at the lower end 17.
  • the hood 22 protects the annular gasket 23, whose operating life can therefore be much longer than in conventional bushing insulator models.
  • the plastics used to provide the hood 22, the external insulating body 24 and internal insulating body 30 ensures optimum characteristics in terms of rigidity and mechanical impact resistance.
  • bushing insulators executed according to the present invention in fact ensure better electrical insulation than conventional types.
  • a further important advantage consists in that a bushing insulator has been provided which is obtained by assembling a reduced number of components with respect to conventional types.
  • a further advantage consists in that a bushing insulator has been provided which allows to considerably simplify all assembly and disassembly operations.
  • a further advantage of the present invention consists in that a bushing insulator has been provided which requires no particular maintenance thanks to sealing gaskets which are practically shielded from the direct action of the weather.
  • the present invention has provided a bushing insulator for low voltages (1 to 3 kV) which benefits from the fact that it can be obtained at a significantly lower cost than conventional models.
  • a further advantage consists in that a bushing insulator has been provided whose constructive configuration is obtained in practice by resorting to per se known processes.
  • a further embodiment can be obtained by providing, between the annular portion 27 and said tank 11, outside the opening 14 and as an alternative to the flat annular gasket 28, a flat rubber-cork gasket of the incompressible type.
  • a still further embodiment is possible if a flat gasket, for example of the kind made of a material known as NBR, combined with a rubber-cork gasket, is interposed between the annular portion 27 and the tank 11.
  • a flat gasket for example of the kind made of a material known as NBR, combined with a rubber-cork gasket, is interposed between the annular portion 27 and the tank 11.
  • the materials employed, so long as they are compatible with the contingent use, as well as the dimensions, may be any according to requirements.
