Abstract

The present invention relates to an insulating support for a power switchgear that insulates and supports the main body of a power switchgear provided in atmospheric air between a generator and a main transformer. The insulating support includes a core part that is molded only from a resin material and has a cylindrical shape; an exterior covering part that is molded only from a rubber material, is attached to an outer peripheral face of the core part, and includes a plurality of pleated parts; an end metal fitting that is attached to one end of the core part and is attached to the main body of the power switchgear; and an end metal fitting that is attached to the other end of the core part and is provided on the ground surface.

First claim

1 - 12 . (canceled)

13 . An insulating support for a power switchgear that insulates and supports a main body of a power switchgear provided in atmospheric air between a generator and a main transformer, the insulating support comprising:
a solid core part that is molded only from a resin material and has a cylindrical shape or a truncated cone shape; an exterior covering part that
is molded only from a rubber material and separately from the core part,
is attached to an outer peripheral face of the core part, and
includes a plurality of pleated parts, the pleated parts being are provided so as to be apart from one another in an axis direction of the core part and each of the pleated parts being provided over an entire periphery of the core part;
a first end metal fitting that includes
a first buried part buried in one end of the core part and
a first base end part provided outside the core part, connected to the first buried part, and attached to the main body; and
a second end metal fitting that includes
a second buried part buried in another end of the core part and
a second base end part provided outside the core part, connected to the second buried part, and provided on a ground surface, wherein
the exterior covering part includes the plurality of pleated parts, the pleated parts being separated from one another, and the outer peripheral face of the core part between the pleated parts is exposed.

14 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 13 , wherein
each of the pleated parts has a protruding part on a face for attaching to the core part, and the outer peripheral face of the core part is provided with a groove part thereon into which the protruding part of each of the pleated parts is fitted.

15 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 14 , wherein
the groove part is formed by cutting off the outer peripheral face of the core part.

16 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 13 , wherein
each of the pleated parts has a groove part on a face for attaching to the core part, and the outer peripheral face of the core part is provided with a protruding part thereon that is fitted into the grove part of each of the pleated parts.

17 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 13 , wherein
the first buried part and the first base end part are formed as one part, and the second buried part and the second base end part are formed as one part.

18 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 13 , wherein
the first buried part and the first base end part are fastened together to be one part, and the second buried part and the second base end part are fastened together to be one part.

19 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 13 , wherein
the first buried part has a rounded surface that is projecting toward the other end and that is without a square edge, and the second buried part has a rounded surface that is projecting toward the one end and that is without a square edge.

20 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 19 , wherein
the first buried part has knurling on a surface that contacts the core part, and the second buried part has knurling on a surface that contacts the core part.

21 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 13 , wherein
the rubber material includes silicone rubber.

22 . An insulating support for a power switchgear that insulates and supports a main body of a power switchgear provided in atmospheric air between a generator and a main transformer, the insulating support comprising:
a solid core part that is molded only from a resin material and has a cylindrical shape or a truncated cone shape; an exterior covering part that
is molded only from a rubber material and separately from the core part,
is attached to an outer peripheral face of the core part, and
includes a plurality of pleated parts, the pleated parts being are provided so as to be apart from one another in an axis direction of the core part and each of the pleated parts being provided over an entire periphery of the core part;
a first end metal fitting that includes
a first buried part buried in one end of the core part and
a first base end part provided outside the core part, connected to the first buried part, and attached to the main body; and
a second end metal fitting that includes
a second buried part buried in another end of the core part and
a second base end part provided outside the core part, connected to the second buried part, and provided on a ground surface, wherein
the resin material includes an epoxy resin material.

23 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 22 , wherein
the exterior covering part includes a trunk part that connects the pleated parts.

24 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 22 , wherein
the first buried part and the first base end part are formed as one part, and the second buried part and the second base end part are formed as one part.

25 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 22 , wherein
the first buried part and the first base end part are fastened together to be one part, and the second buried part and the second base end part are fastened together to be one part.

26 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 22 , wherein
the first buried part has a rounded surface that is projecting toward the other end and that is without a square edge, and the second buried part has a rounded surface that is projecting toward the one end and that is without a square edge.

27 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 26 , wherein
the first buried part has knurling on a surface that contacts the core part, and the second buried part has knurling on a surface that contacts the core part.

28 . The insulating support for a power switchgear according to claim 22 , wherein
the rubber material includes silicone rubber.
