BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION An example of a preferred embodiment of a method and apparatus for extracting PCB oil according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. In the figure, reference numeral 1 is a punch for punching a pipe 2 which serves as a passage for PCB insulating oil. 4 is an elastic body block having a through hole 5 through which a drilling punch 1, which the one side across the capacitor or service
-It can adhere to the outer surface of the vessel wall of the absorber. Reference numeral 7 is a clamp mechanism that presses and fixes the elastic body block 4 to the condenser 6 via the holding jig 3, and 8 is a hydraulic cylinder that drives a punching punch to perform punching.
A suction pump (not shown) is connected to the tube 9. Reference numeral 10 is an insulator of the capacitor shown in FIG. Next, a method of extracting the PCB oil from the capacitor in which the PCB insulating oil is pressure-sealed will be described. First, as shown in FIG. 2, at a place on the upper surface or side surface of the outer can of the capacitor 6 where the elastic block 4 can be pressed against the entire surface.
The elastic block 4 is fixed by the clamp 7 via the holding jig 3. After that, the PC attached to the hydraulic cylinder 8
B Hole punch 1 provided with conduit 2 that serves as a path for insulating oil
However, by inserting the through hole 5 provided in the elastic block 4 and descending, a hole is formed in the wall of the outer can of the capacitor 6. At the same time when the hole is opened, the PCB insulating oil (not shown), which is pressurized and sealed in the condenser 6, flows out to the outside through the pipe 2 provided in the punching punch 1 and the tube 9 connected to the pipe 2. The pressurized state of the condenser 6 is released. In addition, punch the punch 1 to an appropriate depth (usually 50
The insulating oil can be continuously drained by lowering it into the condenser 6 and activating a pump (not shown) connected to the tube 9 connected to the pipe line 2 provided in the punching punch 1.

At this time, the punch 1 and the through hole 5 of the elastic block 4 and the elastic block 4 and the capacitor 6 are formed.
Since the surface of the outer can is kept in close contact with the elastic block 4 due to the elastic deformation caused by the pressure contact (compression bonding), the PCB insulating oil does not leak through this gap. After releasing the internal pressure of the condenser 6, the elastic block 4 is separated from the condenser 6 to release the pressure contact state. At this time, the inside of the condenser 6 is depressurized from the atmospheric pressure, so that the PCB insulating oil will not be jetted or scattered. Further punching punch 1 while continuing suction by punching punch 1

To detect the bottom of the condenser, it is preferable to attach a sensor near the tip of the punch 1 so that the bottom can be detected. Further, after releasing the internal pressure of the condenser 6, the elastic block 4 and the punching punch 1 are separated from the condenser 6 to release the pressure contact state, and a pipe having oil resistance and flexibility is separately punched.
Pump that is inserted into the hole made in and connected to the pipe
It is also possible to drain the PCB insulating oil by activating (not shown).

The diameter of the through hole 5 provided in the elastic block 4 is preferably at least equal to or less than the outer diameter of the punch 1 in order to maintain the close contact with the punch 1. The elastic block 4 achieves its purpose as long as it has a function of maintaining close contact between the contact portion with the punching punch 1 and the contact portion with the outer can surface of the capacitor 6, but it may be a solid material as shown in FIG. Alternatively, it may be formed into a tubular shape and introduced with air at the time of use to bring it into close contact. The material of the elastic block 4 is preferably a highly oil-resistant rubber that is also resistant to PCB oil, and for example, nitrile butadiene rubber, silicone rubber, chloroprene rubber or the like can be used.

FIG. 4 is an example of another embodiment of the oil removing device of the present invention, and corresponds to an example in which the clamp 7 in FIGS. 2 and 3 is omitted. In FIG. 4, one end 31 of the L-shaped pressing jig 31
a and the elastic block 32 are integrally formed, and the L-shaped other end 31b of the pressing jig 31 is connected and fixed by a fixing means to a holder 33 which holds a hydraulic cylinder 37 fixed thereon. This constitutes an oil removing device. The whole oil removing device, in which the elastic block 32 is fixedly held on one side and the hydraulic cylinder 37 is fixedly held on the other side, and the pressing jig 31 and the holding tool 33 are linked, is the lifting means (shown in the figure) provided on the base. do not do)

The block is mm × 30 mm, and a through hole having a diameter of 12 mm is formed in the center thereof. The capacitor 6 is fixed so that the top surface of the capacitor insulator is perpendicular to the pressing surface of the elastic block 4. After that, the elastic block 4 is pressed against the side surface of the capacitor by the clamp mechanism 7 via the jig 3 so that the upper edge of the through hole 5 of the elastic block 4 is located at a position of 20 to 30 mm from the upper surface of the capacitor 6. . The operator positions the punching punch 1 so that the punching punch 1 is located above the through hole 5 of the elastic block 4. This state is shown in FIG.

A pump (not shown) connected to the tube 9 is started to suck the insulating oil up to the position where the punch 1 has reached. At this time, it can be confirmed that the pressure inside the capacitor is lower than the atmospheric pressure because the outer can of the capacitor is warped toward the inner side of the capacitor. At this time 5.5 kg of PC
B insulating oil was recovered. After that, punch 1
Is removed, the elastic block 4 is separated from the condenser 6 to release the pressure contact state, and a flexible pipe (not shown) having oil resistance is separately inserted into the hole formed by the punch 1 and the pump connected to the pipe.
