Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a transformer having a high temperature during the operation thereof and an electric appliance utilizing such transformer.
  • a transformer having a high temperature during the operation is generally air-cooled by a forced draft blower and designed to have the highest permissible operating temperature and the highest critical temperature that may be attained in the event of an abnormal condition such as occurring when the blower halts.
  • the transformer falling within the category of the European Standards E1-96 is prescribed to have the highest permissible operating temperature at 200 °C and the highest critical temperature at 250°C.
  • a transformer core has conventionally been employed of a relatively bulky size effective to render the transformer to attain a temperature of about 180°C at all times during its normal operation. For this reason, the conventional transformer is bulky and heavy, resulting in increase of the cost.
  • a thermal cut off fuse or a temperature responsive fuse is electrically connected in series with the transformer primary winding so that when the temperature of the transformer exceeds a predetermined value, the fuse can break to thereby interrupt supply of an electric power from an electric power source to the transformer primary winding.
  • the thermal cut off fuse is fitted to an outer side of either the transformer primary winding or the transformer secondary winding, it is incapable of accurately detecting the temperature of that portion of the transformer which tends to attain the highest temperature during the normal operation thereof.
  • Patent document US-A-5 321 572 which is considered as closest prior art discloses a transformer with a thermal fuse positioned between the primary winding and the transformer core.
  • the region of the transformer where the highest possible temperature may be attained during the normal operation of the transformer may be thought to reside in a center area of the cross-section of the transformer windings.
  • the region of the transformer where the next highest possible temperature may be attained during the normal operation resides in an area delimited between the transformer windings at which the cooling effect is low and the transformer core encircled by the transformer windings.
  • a temperature sensor cannot be inserted in the center area of the cross-section of the transformer windings, it appears appropriate to detect the temperature prevailing between the transformer windings and the transformer core.
  • the present invention is based on the above discussed findings by the inventor(s) of the present invention and is intended to provide a transformer wherein arrangement has been made to detect the temperature prevailing at an area between the transformer windings and the transformer core, wherefore not only can the transformer core have a reduced size and a reduced weight, but the transformer will not attain a temperature in excess of the highest critical temperature indicative of an occurrence of the abnormal condition.
  • a transformer having a temperature detecting capability which transformer comprises: a transformer core; primary and secondary windings wound around the transformer core; and temperature responsive switch connected in series with the primary winding and adapted to be switched off in response to increase of a temperature to a value equal to or higher than a predetermined value; wherein the primary winding and the secondary winding are spaced from each other in a direction axially thereof; and wherein the temperature responsive switch, having a temperature sensing surface positioned between positioned between one of the primary and secondary windings and the transformer core, characterized in that the temperature sensing surface is positioned on an inner peripheral face of one of the primary and second windings and wherein the transformer core, the primary winding, the secondary winding and the temperature responsive switch are impregnated with an electrically insulating varnish having a thermal conductivity not lower than 0.25 W/m ⁇ °C.
  • the temperature responsive switch can interrupt input to the primary winding when the temperature responsive switch then monitoring the temperature prevailing between the secondary winding, and the transformer core or between the primary winding and the transformer core which tends to be heated to the highest temperature detects increase of such temperature in excess of the predetermined value. Accordingly, the increase of the transformer temperature can be suppressed and, therefore, it is possible not only to reduce the size of the transformer core, but also to render the transformer itself to be compact in size and lightweight. Also, since the temperature responsive switch can be supported sandwiched between the secondary or primary winding and the transformer core, no extra fixture is needed.
  • each of the transformer core, the primary winding, the secondary winding and the temperature responsive switch is impregnated with an electrically insulating varnish having a thermal conductivity not lower than 0.25 W/m.°C. While as hereinbefore discussed the highest temperature region of the transformer may be thought residing at the center area of the cross-section of the windings, in the transformer of the structure described above in accordance with the present invention, the use of the electrically insulating varnish of a high thermal conductivity that is impregnated in the primary and secondary windings makes it possible to transmit heat, evolved in the center area of the cross-section of the windings, to a surface area of the transformer efficiently and with no localized variation.
  • the electrically insulating varnish filled in between the temperature responsive switch and the windings facilitate an efficient transmission of heat appearing on surfaces of the windings to the temperature responsive switch.
  • the temperature responsive switch is effective to detect the temperature as close to the highest possible temperature of the transformer as possible accurately and with minimized localized variation that depends on the position where the temperature responsive switch is disposed. Also, since thermal conduction can be facilitated between the transformer core and each of the primary and secondary windings, a localized increase of the temperature of the transformer core can be effectively suppressed, making it possible to further reduce the size of the transformer core.
  • the transformer core includes a generally E-shaped first core piece and a generally I-shaped or E-shaped second core piece positioned one above the other, having an intermediate leg around which the primary and secondary windings are wound with the secondary winding positioned above the primary winding.
  • the temperature responsive switch is utilized to detect the temperature prevailing between an inside of the secondary winding, tending to attain the highest temperature, and the transformer core.
