This application is a national stage application of International Patent Application No. PCT/CN2021/078624, filed on Mar. 2, 2021, which claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202010164130.4, filed on Mar. 11, 2020.
The present disclosure relates to the technical field of electrical devices, and more specifically, to a high anti-vibration gas density monitor.
Currently, an oil-free gas density monitor using a micro switch as a contact is commonly used to monitor a gas density in an electrical device. Although having good electrical performance, the micro switch used in the gas density monitor is low in accuracy because of a contact operation arm and a limited displacement thereof.
Some gas density monitors are also disclosed in Chinese patents or applications Nos. CN200510110648.5, CN200720066586.7, CN200910195174.7, CN200920209217.8, CN201010171798.8, CN201020190271.5, CN201210032293.2, CN201220047225.9, and CN200920075456.9. The gas density monitors disclosed in patent Nos. CN200510110648.5 and CN200910195174.7 each include a display mechanism and a control mechanism, and a temperature of the display mechanism and a temperature of the control mechanism are each compensated by using a temperature compensation sheet. In this way, a highly accurate operation and display cannot be realized. What's worse, being long and a cantilever, the contact operation arm fiercely vibrates when the switch is operated, causing the gas density monitor to malfunction, and even damaging the micro switch to make the gas density monitor completely useless. In short, the oil-free gas density monitor has bad anti-vibration performance and low accuracy, failing to ensure a system that works reliably.
The gas density monitors disclosed in patent Nos. CN201020190271.5 and CN201010171798.8 each include a displacement magnification mechanism. A start end of the displacement magnification mechanism is connected to the other end of a temperature compensation element. A magnification end of the displacement magnification mechanism drives a contact operation handle of a micro switch, so as to turn the contact on the micro switch to be on or off. When a gas density changes, a Bourdon tube and the temperature compensation element each generates a displacement. The displacements are magnified by the displacement magnification mechanism and then transmitted to the micro switch, so that the micro switch sends a corresponding signal and the density monitor completes its work. However, when the switch is turned on or turned up, the Bourdon tube and the temperature compensation element will vibrate and generate displacements due to the vibration. The displacements are also magnified by the displacement magnification mechanism and then transmitted to the micro switch, so that the micro switch sends a corresponding signal. As a result, a malfunction happens. That is, the gas density monitor has bad anti-vibration performance and cannot ensure a system to work reliably, bringing a great risk to safe operation of the main power grid. In addition, these gas density monitors cannot meet a requirement of reclosing of a switch. That is, when a gas-filling pressure (a density) is lower than an alarm pressure, a shock test of 50 g and 11 ms cannot be withstood, and a lockout contact malfunctions. For example, for a 0.6/0.52/0.5 density monitor, if a shock test of 50 g and 11 ms is performed when a gas pressure (a density) decreases to an alarm operation contact, the lockout contact malfunctions; (i.e., the switch is locked out). In this way, a requirement of reclosing of the switch cannot be met. A deficiency of patent No. CN200520115321.2 is similar to that of patent No. CN201010171798.8. That is, a displacement caused by vibration is magnified by a displacement magnification mechanism and then transmitted to a micro switch (Namely, the displacement is transmitted to a movement control shaft by using a fan-shaped control gear and then transmitted to the micro switch by using the movement control shaft). As a result, the displacement caused by the vibration is greatly magnified, making the vibration more acute. Due to the acute vibration generated when the switch is closed or opened, a gas density monitor with better anti-vibration performance is urgently needed, and the above gas density monitors cannot meet the requirement.
Temperatures of the above gas density monitors are compensated by using temperature compensation sheets, so that it's hard to achieve high accuracy. Besides, the enclosures are not completely sealed, and the gas density monitors are relative-pressure density monitors that are affected by an altitude.
Patent No. CN 200920075456.9 discloses an oil-filling anti-vibration gas density monitor. A micro switch is also used as a contact in the density monitor. For such density monitors mounted on the scene, liquid (anti-vibration oil) leakage always occurs in an enclosure of the gas density monitor after some time. During actual operation, oil leakage is very common in sight glasses (instrument glasses) of the gas density monitor disclosed in patent No. CN200920075456.9 and an oil-filling density monitor with an electrical contact widely used at the present, badly affecting system safety and reliability. What's more, to change these density monitors will cost a lot of money. After long-time observation and analysis, the reason why oil or gas leakage often occurs is found. It's because sealing is performed on small arc surfaces of the sight glasses (the instrument glasses) of the density monitors, making the sealing effect not so good and because sealing rings of the density monitors will age. In a high altitude area, because a differential pressure in an instrument glass is great, the instrument glass even explodes, causing safety issues. For an absolute-pressure oil-filling density monitor, as temperature increases, a differential pressure outside and inside an enclosure is great, such that an instrument glass also explodes, causing safety issues. In a word, an operation contact used in a current density monitor is mainly an electrical contact or a micro switch. A density monitor with an electrical contact is usually filled with anti-vibration silicone oil, and a density monitor with a micro switch also needs to be filled with anti-vibration silicone oil in some special occasions. For the density monitors filled with anti-vibration oil, because a control mechanism and a display mechanism are in a same enclosure, and the display mechanism needs to be observable, sight glasses (instrument glasses) are required. When anti-vibration oil is filled, the sight glasses (the instrument glasses) are immersed in the anti-vibration oil. Because sealing is performed on arc surfaces (or small arc surfaces) of the sight glasses (the instrument glasses) and enclosure, making the sealing effect bad, and because sealing rings will age, oil leakage often occurs. This brings a loss and even safety issues to a user, so that creation is urgently needed. Therefore, it's urgent to provide a gas density monitor with good anti-vibration performance at a contact and a display mechanism, good electrical performance, high accuracy, a long service life and thin profile, and can be used in various occasions. Specifically, it's required that an oil-filling density monitor can work for a long time without leaking oil, to ensure safety and reliability of power grid, or it's required that an enclosure of the density monitor is completely sealed in a long working period and that the density monitor is an absolute-pressure density monitor that is not be affected by an altitude.

The high anti-vibration gas density monitor has good anti-vibration and electrical performance, high accuracy, and a long service life.

Compared with the prior art, the present embodiment has the following beneficial effects.
Compared with an oil-filling anti-vibration gas density monitor with a micro switch in the prior art and an oil-filling density monitor with an electrical contact widely used at the present, the high anti-vibration gas density monitor of the present embodiment designs a signal control mechanism and an indication value display mechanism independent from each other. The signal control mechanism includes at least one corrugated pipe, a sealed compensation chamber, at least one signal generator, and a signal regulation mechanism. A gas density is monitored by the corrugated pipe, the sealed compensation chamber, and the signal generator. Because the signal control mechanism uses the corrugated pipe and the sealed compensation chamber to monitor the gas density, and the corrugated pipe is small and has good anti-vibration performance, there is no need to fill oil. An independent sealed compartment used for mounting the indication value display mechanism is provided in the monitor enclosure. The sealed compartment is filled with anti-vibration oil or hermetically filled with gas. The indication value display mechanism can use anti-vibration oil to be high anti-vibration. Alternatively, the indication value display mechanism can use good sealing performance of the sealed compartment, to ensure that the density monitor is an absolute-pressure density monitor and cannot be affected by an altitude. Because the sealed compartment of the indication value display mechanism is well sealed, so that leakage of oil or gas is avoided, and the density delay can work for a long time. The indication value display mechanism is independent, so it is very easy to display a gas density in a whole range (from −0.1 MPa to 0.9 MPa) in the density monitor, especially a gas density starting from −0.1 MPa. When evacuation is performed, an evacuation degree can be displayed, so that application of the density monitor is easy to be promoted. In addition, the temperature compensation element is configured to compensate a temperature for the indication value display mechanism, further improving and ensuring accuracy. In a word, the monitor enclosure of the high anti-vibration gas density monitor of the present disclosure has good anti-vibration and electrical performance, high accuracy, and a long service life. It is thin in profile and can be both oil-filled and gas-filled without leakage.

As shown in
The signal control mechanism includes a corrugated pipe 17, a second sealed cavity 21, a first sealed cavity 22, a signal generator 19, and a signal regulation mechanism 20. The corrugated pipe 17 is provided in the second sealed cavity 21. One end of the corrugated pipe 17 is sealed, and the other end of the corrugated pipe 17 is in communication with an electrical device. Compensation gas is provided in the second sealed cavity 21.

The pointer 2 is mounted on the movement 6. The dial 1 is mounted in the sealed compartment 35.
Specifically, in this embodiment, the sealed compartment 35 includes an instrument glass 11, a display chassis 36, and a first sealing ring 37. The instrument glass 11 is of a cylindrical structure with an open end. The display chassis 36 is mounted at the open end of the instrument glass 11. The instrument glass 11 is fixed to the display chassis 36 via a fastener 25. A first sealing groove 38 is provided at a periphery of the display chassis 36. The first sealing ring 37 is provided in the first sealing groove 38 and is between the instrument glass 11 and the display chassis 36 for sealing. The display chassis 36 seals an inner cavity of the instrument glass 11 to form the sealed compartment 35 that accommodates the indication value display mechanism.

The gastight screw 44 and the gastight sealing ring 45 are mainly configured to seal the oil-filling and gastight inlet 43 after the sealed compartment 35 is filled with anti-vibration oil, to prevent the anti-vibration oil from leaking during transmission. Alternatively, the gastight screw 44 and the gastight sealing ring 45 are mainly configured to seal an oil-filling inlet (or a gastight inlet) after the sealed compartment 35 is mounted, to form an absolute-pressure density monitor, to ensure that the indication value display mechanism of the density monitor is not affected by an altitude pressure.
In this embodiment, a head end of the monitor enclosure 9 is further provided with a transparent front-layer glass 26. Both the front-layer glass 26 and the instrument glass 11 are transparent glasses. An end surface of the instrument glass 11 is provided with a third sealing groove 40. The third sealing groove 40 is provided with a third sealing ring 41. The third sealing ring 41 is provided between the front-layer glass 26 and the instrument glass 11 for sealing. The front-layer glass 26 is fixed to the monitor enclosure 9 via an instrument panel 10. A fixing flange 46 is provided at a periphery of a front wall of the instrument glass 11 in this embodiment. The instrument panel 10 is connected to the instrument glass 11 by using the fixing flange 46. A sealing ring 12 is provided between a side wall of the instrument glass 11 and the instrument panel 10.
A supporting element 8 is provided between the display chassis 36 and a bottom of the monitor enclosure 9. One end of the supporting element 8 is fixed to the monitor enclosure, and the other end of the supporting element 8 contacts or is connected to the display chassis 36. The supporting element 8 can ensure a right position of the indication value display mechanism, to prevent the dial from being biased.
In this embodiment, a working principle of the indication value display mechanism is as follows. The Bourdon tube 3 of the indication value display mechanism is an elastic element that corrects a changing pressure and temperature by the temperature compensation element 4, to reflect a change of the gas density. That is, with the pressure of the tested gas, because of the temperature compensation element 4, an end of the Bourdon tube 3 is forced to elastically deform correspondingly and displaces. The displacement is transmitted to the movement 6 via the connecting rod 7, then to the pointer 2 via the movement 6, and a density value of the tested gas is gradually indicated on the dial 1. In this way, the density monitor can display the density value.
The signal control mechanism in this embodiment further includes a control casing 16, a first sealing element 15, a second sealing element 18, a third sealing element 32, and an outlet connection socket 24. One end of the corrugated pipe 17 is welded to the first sealing element 15, and the other end of the corrugated pipe 17 is welded to the second sealing element 18. A space inside the corrugated pipe 17 is the first sealed cavity 22. The first sealed cavity 22 is filled with compensation gas, to form a sealed compensation chamber. The outlet connection socket 24 is fixed to the third sealing element 32 or the control casing 16. Two end of the control casing 16 are sealedly connected to the first sealing element 15 and the third sealing element 32 respectively. A space inside the control casing 16 and outside the corrugated pipe 17 is a second sealed cavity 21. The second sealed cavity 21 is in communication with the electrical device and is in gas communication with the indication value display mechanism. The signal regulation mechanism 20 and the signal generator 19 are provided in the second sealed cavity 21.
Alternatively, the first sealed cavity 22 may further be in communication with the electrical device and is in gas communication with the indication value display mechanism. The second sealed cavity 21 is filled with compensation gas, to form a sealed compensation chamber.
Specifically, the signal regulation mechanism 20 is connected to the corrugated pipe 17 via a trigger lever. The trigger lever pulls or pushes the signal regulation mechanism 20 to trigger the signal generator 19 to generate a signal. The trigger lever is provided with a guiding element 33, to guide the trigger lever to move.
A working principle of the signal control mechanism is as follows. At a same temperature, in the first sealed cavity 22 and the second sealed cavity 21, densities are high while pressures are high, densities are identical while pressures are identical, and densities are low while pressures are low. At 20° C., if the first sealed cavity 22 is the cavity hermetically filled with a compensation gas, and a gas-filling pressure in the first sealed cavity 22 is the same as an alarm pressure, a differential pressure between the alarm pressure Palarm and the gas-filling pressure of the first sealed cavity 22 is ΔP=0 MPa. When ΔP=0 MPa, an alarm contact operates. No matter a temperature increases or decreases, if gas leakage occurs in the electrical device, when a pressure Pdevice of the electrical device equals to the Palarm, that is, ΔP=0 MPa, the density monitor triggers the corresponding signal generator 19 by using the signal regulation mechanism 20, and a contact of the signal generator 19 is on and sends a corresponding signal (an alarm or a lockout), to monitor and control a gas density in a device such as a high-pressure switch, so that the electrical device works safely.
