Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a stationary induction apparatus.


BACKGROUND ART

Japanese Utility Model Laying-Open No. 58-196814 (PTL 1) is a document that discloses a configuration of a stationary induction apparatus. In a transformer which is a stationary induction apparatus described in PTL 1, a high-voltage winding and a low-voltage winding are insulated from each other by a flat interwinding insulating plate. Between the high-voltage winding and the low-voltage winding, an oil duct is formed by affixing insulating pieces to a surface of the flat insulating plate. A tank contains these components, and is filled with insulating oil. The insulating oil enters between the high-voltage winding and the low-voltage winding via one ends of the windings, and is heated by receiving heat of these windings while passing between them. The insulating oil is delivered to the outside via the other ends of the windings, into an oil cooler by an oil pump through a pipe, and is then cooled by a blower and returns to the tank.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, each of the plurality of windings 120 is wound around core 110, with core 110 as a central axis. Specifically, each of the plurality of windings 120 is wound around main leg 111 while being passed between main leg 111 and side legs 112. In this manner, each of the plurality of windings 120 is coaxially arranged. Each of the plurality of windings 120 is a plate winding in the present embodiment.


As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the plurality of windings 120 include a plurality of high-voltage windings 120a and a plurality of low-voltage windings 120b. In a central axis direction of the plurality of windings 120, the plurality of high-voltage windings 120a are located so as to be sandwiched between a pair of the plurality of low-voltage windings 120b.


As shown in FIG. 4, each of the plurality of insulating plates 130 is located so as to be sandwiched between every two adjacent windings 120 of the plurality of windings 120. A configuration of each of the plurality of insulating plates 130 will be described later.

Claims
  • 1. A stationary induction apparatus comprising: a core;a plurality of windings wound around the core, with the core as a central axis, and coaxially arranged;a plurality of insulating plates, each being located so as to be sandwiched between every two adjacent windings of the plurality of windings; anda tank to contain the core, the plurality of windings and the plurality of insulating plates, the tank being filled with insulating oil,the tank being configured such that the insulating oil flows within the tank in a first direction orthogonal to a central axis direction of the plurality of windings,the plurality of insulating plates each including a first plate-like portion and a second plate-like portion adjacent to each other in the central axis direction,the first plate-like portion being provided with a plurality of first holes extending therethrough in the central axis direction,the second plate-like portion being provided with a plurality of second holes extending therethrough in the central axis direction,at least one of the first plate-like portion and the second plate-like portion being provided with a first notch at one edge in the first direction, and being provided with a second notch at the other edge in the first direction, andthe plurality of first holes, the plurality of second holes, the first notch and the second notch overlapping one another, to thereby form a flow path which connects one side and the other side of each of the plurality of insulating plates and through which the insulating oil can flow in the first direction, whereinwhen viewed in the central axis direction, the flow path includes a linear flow path formed along the first direction,when viewed in the central axis direction, the flow path includes a plurality of the linear flow paths,the plurality of first holes forming one of the plurality of the linear flow paths adjacent to each other and the plurality of first holes forming the other linear flow path are located in a staggered relation to each other in the first direction, andthe plurality of second holes forming one of the plurality of the linear flow paths adjacent to each other and the plurality of second holes forming the other linear flaw path are located in a staggered relation to each other in the first direction.
  • 2. A stationary induction apparatus, comprising: a core;a plurality of windings wound around the core, with the core as a central axis, and coaxially arranged;a plurality of insulating plates, each being located so as to be sandwiched between every two adjacent windings of the plurality of windings; anda tank to contain the core, the plurality of windings and the plurality of insulating plates, the tank being filled with insulating oil,the tank being configured such that the insulating oil flows within the tank in a first direction orthogonal to a central axis direction of the plurality of windings,the plurality of insulating plates each including a first plate-like portion and a second plate-like portion adjacent to each other in the central axis direction,the first plate-like portion being provided with a plurality of first holes extending therethrough in the central axis direction,the second plate-like portion being provided with a plurality of second holes extending therethrough in the central axis direction,at least one of the first plate-like portion and the second plate-like portion being provided with a first notch at one edge in the first direction, and being provided with a second notch at the other edge in the first direction, andthe plurality of first holes, the plurality of second holes, the first notch and the second notch overlapping one another, to thereby form a flow path which connects one side and the other side of each of the plurality of insulating plates and through which the insulating oil can flow in the first direction, whereinthe plurality of insulating plates each further include a third plate-like portion located on an opposite side to the first plate-like portion in the central axis direction and adjacent to the second plate-like portion, andthe third plate-like portion is identical in shape to the first plate-like portion, and is located symmetrically to the first plate-like portion with respect to the second plate-like portion.
