The present invention relates to a novel busbar chamber arc-striking plate assembly and an electric cabinet including the busbar chamber arc-striking plate assembly.
There is a need for arcing resistant for solid busbars. However, in some current solutions of electrical cabinets, the busbar chamber is not separated into a separate compartment, and its space is large. Also, laminated polyester plates are installed at the back side of the low-voltage box and the corresponding side screen to prevent burn-through, but polyester plates are easy to ablate and produce toxic gases, leading to environmental problems. In some other current solutions of electrical cabinets, although an arc-striking plate is used, the structure of the arc-striking plate is simple, and in a case where the space of the busbar chamber is still relatively large, laminated polyester plates are still used at the corresponding side screen to prevent burn-through. Therefore, the performance of the arc-striking plate regarding arc-striking and burn-through resistance is poor, and there are still environmental problems.
Therefore, there is a need to have a busbar chamber as an independent compartment and an arc-striking design that can not only ensure high arcing resistance but also meet high environmental protection requirements.
In view of the above problems, according to the present invention, a busbar chamber arc-striking assembly is proposed, which includes a main frame forming a space configured to accommodate a busbar chamber sleeve, wherein the main frame includes a back plate, and the back plate is arranged on a side of the busbar chamber sleeve opposite to the busbar; and a first arc-striking plate which is parallel to and spaced apart from the back plate of the main frame, wherein the first arc-striking plate is installed to extend between adjacent busbar chamber sleeves.
The present invention has following advantages: because the first arc-striking plate is close to the busbar chamber sleeves, it is possible to strike arc quickly at the initial stage of arc generation, and to cut off the arc and reduce arc energy.
The busbar chamber arc-striking assembly according to the present invention can have one or more of the following characteristics.
According to one embodiment, in a thickness direction of the first arc-striking plate, the first arc-striking plate is close to the center of the busbar chamber sleeve. This ensures that the first arc-striking plate is close enough to the busbar chamber sleeve in the thickness direction.
According to one embodiment, in the thickness direction of the first arc-striking plate, the distance between the first arc-striking plate and the center of the busbar chamber sleeve is less than or equal to 10 mm.
According to one embodiment, the width of the first arc-striking plate is designed such that when the busbar chamber arc-striking assembly is installed in place, the first arc-striking plate is close to and spaced apart from busbar chamber sleeves on both sides of the first arc-striking plate. This ensures that the first arc-striking plate is close enough to the busbar chamber sleeves in the width direction.
According to one embodiment, the main frame further includes a top plate and two side plates connected with the back plate. In this way, a busbar chamber as an independent compartment is realized.
According to one embodiment, the busbar chamber arc-striking assembly further includes an internal partition plate, wherein the internal partition plate is arranged in the space formed by the main frame and arranged close to and parallel to the back plate, the width of the internal partition plate spans the distance between the two side plates of the main frame, and the internal partition plate is arranged in the thickness direction between the back plate and the first arcing plate; and an external partition plate, wherein the external partition plate is arranged outside the space formed by the main frame and arranged close to and parallel to the back plate, the width of the external partition plate spans the distance between the two side plates of the main frame. The arrangement of the internal partition plate and the external partition plate is beneficial for arc striking, reduces the arc energy, and can strike the arc and ignite itself until the arc is extinguished without using laminated polyester plates, which is more environmentally friendly and safer.
According to one embodiment, the busbar chamber arc-striking assembly further includes a second arc-striking plate, wherein the second arc-striking plate is arranged between the first arc-striking plate and the internal partition plate and parallel with the back plate, wherein the second arc-striking plate has a width greater than that of the first arc-striking plate. The arrangement of the second arc-striking plate is beneficial for arc striking, reduces the arc energy, and can strike the arc and ignite itself until the arc is extinguished without using laminated polyester plates, which is more environmentally friendly and safer.
According to one embodiment, the busbar chamber arc-striking assembly further includes a side arc-striking plate, wherein the side arc-striking plate is arranged parallel to the internal partition plate and is close to the side plate in the width direction. The arrangement of the side arc-striking plate is beneficial for arc striking near the side plate and reduces the arc energy.
According to one embodiment, the busbar chamber arc-striking assembly further comprises: an intermediate arc-striking plate, and the intermediate arc-striking plate is arranged between the first arc-striking plate and the second arc-striking plate and parallel to the back plate, and is installed to extend between adjacent busbar chamber sleeves. This ensures that the arc can be quickly captured and attracted by the arc-striking plates no matter where it occurs in the initial stage of generation.
According to one embodiment, the busbar chamber arc-striking assembly comprises one to three intermediate arc-striking plates parallel to and spaced apart from each other. The specific quantity can be adjusted according to different parameters of internal arcing tests, so as to adapt to different internal arcing conditions.
According to one embodiment, the first arc-striking plate and the intermediate arc-striking plate are respectively designed such that respective edges of the first arc-striking plate and the intermediate arc-striking plate are at the same distance in respective width directions from the outer contours of adjacent busbar chamber sleeves. This ensures that no matter where the arc occurs in the initial stage of generation, it can be captured and attracted by the arc-striking plates evenly and quickly, and it will ignite itself until the arc is extinguished, so as to prevent the arc from jumping and extending to release more energy.
According to one embodiment, the first arc-striking plate, the second arc-striking plate and the side arc-striking plate are attached to respective reinforcing plates. This can increase the rigidity of the first arc-striking plate, the second arc-striking plate and the side arc-striking plate.
According to one embodiment, the busbar chamber arc-striking assembly further includes a mounting piece, wherein the first arc-striking plate, the second arc-striking plate, the side arc-striking plate, the intermediate arc-striking plate, the internal partition plate and the external partition plate are mounted to the main frame through respective mounting pieces; and spacer rings, wherein the spacer rings are formed in an annular shape and have a fixed thickness, and are configured to be sleeved on respective mounting pieces in different numbers so as to adjust the distance between two components in the busbar chamber arc-striking assembly. The design of the mounting pieces and spacer rings is beneficial to conveniently adjust the distance between the two components in the busbar chamber arc-striking assembly.
According to the present invention, an electric cabinet is also proposed, which includes the above-mentioned busbar chamber arc-striking assembly.
