Description
- The present invention relates to the field of resin-insulated dry electric transformers. In particular, the present invention relates to an electrical transformer of the aforesaid type with an electrically insulating barrier interposed between the low voltage winding and the medium voltage winding. More particularly, the present invention relates to a barrier support configured to support an insulating barrier between a low voltage winding and a medium voltage winding in a medium to low voltage electrical transformer.
- The electric network provides users with electricity in the form of an alternating voltage, generally called "low voltage". This low voltage typically has an amplitude of the order of some hundred volts. However, in the case of large users such as factories, shopping center or the like, electricity can be supplied in the form of "medium voltage", whose amplitude is typically of the order of tens of thousands Volt. In this case, the user uses an electric transformer to convert the medium voltage coming from the electric network into low voltage.
- As is known, a transformer is an electric machine suitable for transforming an input voltage (and the input current associated thereto) into an output voltage (and into an output current associated thereto).
- Typically, a transformer comprises a primary winding and a secondary winding. The primary and secondary windings are electrically insulated from each other and are coupled by a magnetic circuit; for example, the primary and secondary windings can be wound concentrically on a magnetic core.
- An alternating input voltage applied to the ends of the primary winding induces a magnetic flux in the magnetic core. In turn, this magnetic flux induces an alternating output voltage at the ends of the secondary winding. As is well known, the ratio between the amplitude of the output voltage and the amplitude of the input voltage is equal to the ratio between the number of turns of the secondary winding and the number of turns of the primary winding.
- Since the electrical power in generally supplied as a three-phase voltage, medium to low voltage transformers typically comprise three elements, commonly referred to as "columns". Each column comprises a magnetic core, a primary winding and a secondary winding, to transform a phase of the medium input voltage into a respective phase of the low output voltage.
- Typically, the magnetic cores are formed by a plurality of sheets made of magnetic material (for example, oriented grain silicon) coated with an insulating material, packed and tightened against each other. The magnetic cores of the columns are not independent of each other but are branches of a single magnetic circuit with three branches. The cores of the columns are connected to each other at both ends by means of rectilinear yokes, also formed by the above mentioned sheets.
- Moreover, typically, the magnetic core is pressed at the yokes by means of a pair of horizontal elements (made, for example, in the form of steel sections), commonly referred to as "yoke clamps", connected together by crossbars. Pressing devices configured to press the transformer columns, in particular the medium voltage winding contained in the casing, are then attached to the yoke clamps.
- In order to fix a known pressing device to a yoke clamp typically a screw is generally used coupled with two nuts, in turn coupled with respective counter-nuts to prevent loosening. In addition, typically, washers are used to improve the locking of the nuts. The pressure exerted by the device on the medium voltage winding of the transformer is regulated by screwing the screw and the nuts.

Preferably, the opening angle of theopening 125 corresponds to an angle of at least 185° but more preferably at least 190°. Preferably, the opening angle of theopening 125 corresponds to an angle lower than about 200°. - The
barrier support 101 is preferably made of thermoplastic resin or the like material. Suitable materials are, for example, Nylon PA 6/66 (possibly filled with fibers or glass spheres in a variable percentage, for example between 30 and 60%), PBT (Polybutylene terephthalate), PPA, PPS or the like. In particular, it is preferable to use one of the aforesaid materials with self-extinguishing characteristics. - The barrier support 100 is configured to be snap-locked in a removable manner to the
pressing device 1 or to aspacer 7. In particular, the two half-legs lateral surface 23 of thelower body 2. The elasticity of the material causes the semi-legs 122 and 123 to close again when the reduced-diameter part is embraced by the half-legs. In this way, thebarrier support 101 is snapped to thepressing device 1 or to a uplift or centering support thereof. Thebarrier support 101 according to the first embodiment is shown coupled to a uplift of a pressing device inFigure 15 or in the exploded view ofFigure 16 . - The
barrier support 101 can be used indifferently to support a single plate barrier B both at the bottom and at the top. It is sufficient to turn the blades up or down. - The thickness of the

Figures 11 and12 show a second embodiment of thebarrier support 102 of the present invention. Thebarrier support 102 is very similar to thebarrier support 101 and therefore a detailed description will not be repeated. The difference mainly lies in the fact that thevertical body 110 comprises threeblades slots 113 open at the top and at the sides but closed at the bottom as indicated by thenumber 114. - As shown in
Figure 12 , in each of the slots 113 a barrier B can be inserted, typically comprising a plate of an electrically insulating material. In this way, the barrier comprises two concentric plates for even greater protection against electric shocks, parasitic currents or the like. -
Figures 13 and14 show a third embodiment of thebarrier support 103 of the present invention. Thebarrier support 103 is very similar to thebarrier support 101 and therefore a detailed description will not be repeated. The difference mainly lies in the fact that thevertical body 110 comprises fourblades slots 113 open at the top and at the sides but closed at the bottom as indicated by thenumber 114. - As shown in
Figure 12 , in each of the slots 113 a barrier B can be inserted, typically comprising a plate of an electrically insulating material.
