The flange wall includes a first mating portion that engages the first surface feature and a second mating portion that engages the second surface feature of the body portion.

Post insulator and insulated support post

Disclosed in the present invention is a post insulator, comprising a hollow insulating tube, a shed positioned on a periphery of the hollow insulating tube, and an upper flange and a lower flange provided at two ends of the hollow insulating tube, wherein gas is sealed inside of the hollow insulating tube, and the absolute pressure of the gas is 0.1-0.15 MPa. Further disclosed is an insulated support post formed by the end-to-end connection of the post insulators. The post insulator and the insulated support post of the present invention solve an interface problem present in internal insulating solid material filling, and also solve a gas leaking problem that occurs when using high-pressure gas filling, such that the post insulator does not need to be detected and maintained. At the same time, the margin of the micro-water control range is improved, and micro-water control and production difficulty is reduced.

20170229218 · 2017-08-10 ·

An electric fence coupler assembly includes an insulator that may be removably coupled to a fence post. The insulator may engage an electric fence thereby facilitating the electric fence to be retained on the fence post. The insulator is comprised of a resiliently bendable material. Thus, the insulator frictionally engages the fence post thereby facilitating the insulator to be removably retained on the fence post. A pair of clips is coupled to the insulator and each of the clips engages the electric fence.

Method of manufacture of porcelain insulator structures and method and assembly for affixing metal flanges to porcelain insulators

A manufacturing process for a structure having a porcelain body and a flange includes: inserting an end portion of the body into a flange opening, providing a gap between the body end portion and a metal surface of the flange, filling the gap with adhesive to create a bond between the surfaces, installing an electrically active subassembly in the porcelain body and placing the structure in a heated environment to simultaneously dry the subassembly and fully cure the adhesive to provide the bond.

Overhead power distribution line

An overhead power distribution line (10) comprises a tension resistant pole (101), two composite crossbeams (102) and tension resistant fixing members (103). A middle portion of the composite crossbeam (102) is horizontally secured on the tension resistant pole (101), and end portions of the composite crossbeam (102) are connected to the tension resistant fixing members (103). The tension resistant fixing members (103) enable the two composite crossbeams (102) to integrally connect and are for fixing conducting lines. With the above configuration, two composite crossbeams (102) are secured on the same horizontal plane of the tension resistant pole (101), thus satisfying vertical tension of a tension resistant requirement. Further, by using composited crossbeam bodies (102), a dry arc distance is significantly increased, and electrical lightning resistance performance is enhanced, preventing incidents such as line disconnection and flashover caused by lightning strike. The composite crossbeams (102) are maintenance-free and do not require periodical inspection and maintenance, significantly reducing labor costs. The use of crossbeams (102) can further eliminate the use of tension insulators and simplify the structure of lines.

Electric wire conductor, covered electric wire, wire harness, and method for manufacturing electric wire conductor

An electric wire conductor includes a wire strand having a plurality of elemental wires twisted together.
