  • Publication number: 20250079828
    Abstract: A box-type substation, an energy storage power supply system, and a photovoltaic power generation system. The box-type substation includes a low-voltage cabinet, a high-voltage cabinet, a transformer, a first keychain, and a second keychain. When two circuit breakers in the low-voltage cabinet are in a switched-on state, each of the first keychain and the second keychain is locked at a corresponding circuit breaker. Therefore, when maintenance is performed on the transformer, the circuit breakers in the low-voltage cabinet are switched off first to remove the first keychain and the second keychain. Then, the first keychain and the second keychain are used together to switch off a disconnector in the high-voltage cabinet, and the first keychain and the second keychain are locked at the disconnector when the disconnector is in a switched-off state. Mechanical lock logic of the box-type substation is simple with high efficiency.

  • Patent number: 12034308
    Abstract: This application provides a power generation system. The power generation system may include an integration system and a power transformation system. The integration system may include a plurality of inverters and a plurality of first switches. The plurality of inverters are connected in series to the plurality of first switches in a one-to-one correspondence. Each inverter converts a direct current from a direct current power supply into an alternating current, and outputs the alternating current to a corresponding first switch. Alternating currents of the plurality of first switches from corresponding inverters are combined and output to the power generation system, and the plurality of inverters and the power transformation system are isolated from each other. The power transformation system adjusts a voltage value of the combined alternating current and outputs the voltage value to a power grid.

  • Publication number: 20230121284
    Abstract: A switch, a power conversion apparatus, and a power supply system. The power supply system includes a control unit, a switch, a direct current source, and a power conversion unit. The switch is electrically connected between the direct current source and the power conversion unit, and the control unit is configured to send a switch-off signal to the switch when a fault occurs on the direct current source or the power conversion unit. The switch includes a contact component, a trip-free structure, and a knob that are sequentially disposed in a stacked manner in a first direction. A trip unit of the trip-free structure is configured to receive the switch-off signal, to unlock the trip unit from the cradle. The cradle drives the connecting rod structure to move, to separate the moving contact from the fixed contact.

  • Patent number: 10103640
    Abstract: A power converter, including: at least two inverting modules, where direct current sides of the at least two inverting modules are connected in parallel using a laminated busbar or a circuit board, and the at least two inverting modules run in an interleaved and parallel manner. In the present invention, the power converter is formed by connecting at least two inverting modules in parallel, and the direct current sides of the at least two inverting modules are connected in parallel using the laminated busbar or the circuit board, so that parasitic inductance between inverting modules is small, forming a low parasitic inductance loop. When the at least two inverting modules run in an interleaved and parallel manner, the low parasitic inductance loop counteracts most ripple currents in a circuit, thereby reducing the burden of the ripple currents on a bus capacitor. Therefore, the demand of the power converter provided in the present invention for the bus capacitor is small.
