Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Verbindungsvorrichtung für Hohlleiter.The present invention relates to a connecting device for waveguides.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

In der GIS-Hochspannungstechnik werden hohle Leiter eingesetzt. Durch Stromfluss entsteht Wärme in den Hohlleitern. Besonders in vertikaler Anordnung, kommt es zum Wärmestau, da die in den Bausteinen stattfindende und die Wärmeableitung an die Umgebung unterstützende Konvektion nicht in den Leitern stattfindet. Die Wärme wird an angrenzende Bauteile, z.B. Kontakte weitergegeben, was aus bekannten Gründen kontraproduktiv wirkt. Zur besseren Wärmeabführung an die Umgebung werden in manchen Bereichen "Lüftungsschlitze" in die Leiter angebracht.Hollow conductors are used in GIS high-voltage technology. The flow of electricity creates heat in the waveguides. Especially in a vertical arrangement, there is a build-up of heat because the convection that takes place in the building blocks and supports heat dissipation to the environment does not take place in the conductors. The heat is transferred to adjacent components, e.g. Contacts passed on, which is counterproductive for known reasons. For better heat dissipation to the environment, "ventilation slots" are made in the ladder in some areas.

Hohlleiter müssen beispielsweise zum Aufbau eines Hohlleiternetzes verbunden werden. Bei der Verbindung von den Hohlleitern muss der elektrische Widerstand entlang des gesamten Umfangs sehr gering sein, da in der Wandung hohe Ströme fließen können. In Hohlleitern wird gerne innen verschraubt. Dafür wird eine größere Montageöffnung vorgesehen. Diese verursacht jedoch dielektrische Probleme. Um das Problem aufzuheben wird die Montageöffnung gewöhnlich mit einem Deckel verschlossen.Waveguides have to be connected, for example, to build up a waveguide network. When connecting the waveguides, the electrical resistance along the entire circumference must be very low, since high currents can flow in the wall. It is often screwed inside in waveguides. A larger assembly opening is provided for this. However, this causes dielectric problems. To solve the problem, the assembly opening is usually closed with a lid.

Verbindungsvorrichtungen sind aus den Druckschriften GB987593 A , US3806837 A , US4052724 A und US2009/027290 A1 bekannt.Connecting devices are from the publications GB987593 A , US3806837 A , US4052724 A and US2009 / 027290 A1 known.

Aufgabe der ErfindungObject of the invention

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine Verbindungsvorrichtung für Hohlleiter zu schaffen, die sowohl eine Montage der Hohlleiter auf einfache Art und Weise als auch eine optimierte Konvektion ermöglicht.The object of the invention is to provide a connecting device for waveguides, which allows both an easy assembly of the waveguide and an optimized convection.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird mit der Erfindung eine Verbindungsvorrichtung laut Anspruch 1 vorgeschlagen.To solve this problem, a connecting device according to claim 1 is proposed with the invention.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verbindungsvorrichtung weist einen Hohlkörper und mehrere an dem Hohlkörper angeordnete Aufnahmeöffnungen zur Aufnahme der zu verbindenden Hohlleiter. Der Hohlkörper ist aus elektrischen leitfähigen Materialien ausgebildet, wie z.B. aus Aluminium, Eisen, Stahl oder anderen Metallen. Um die Wärme innerhalb des Hohlkörpers abzuleiten ist mindestens eine Lüftungsöffnung an dem Hohlkörper angeordnet.The connecting device according to the invention has a hollow body and a plurality of receiving openings arranged on the hollow body for receiving the waveguide to be connected. The hollow body is formed from electrically conductive materials, such as e.g. made of aluminum, iron, steel or other metals. In order to dissipate the heat within the hollow body, at least one ventilation opening is arranged on the hollow body.

Bei der Verbindung der Hohlleiter wird gerne innen verschraubt. Dafür ist eine Montageöffnung benötigt. Erfindungsgemäß dient die Lüftungsöffnung ebenfalls als Montageöffnung. Durch günstige Auslegung der Radien um die Montageöffnung werden dielektrische Probleme vermieden. Ein Deckel für die Montageöffnung wird bei der Erfindung nicht benötigt. Da die Montageöffnung gleichzeitig als Lüftungsöffnung dient, soll diese Öffnung nicht verdeckt werden. Die Kombination aus der Montageöffnung und Lüftungsöffnung ermöglicht sowohl eine erleichterte Montage von Bauteilen (z.B. Hohlleiter, Kontakte usw.) an dem Hohlkörper als auch eine optimierte Gaskonvektion zwischen der Innenseite und der Außenseite des Hohlkörpers.When connecting the waveguide, it is often screwed inside. An assembly opening is required for this. According to the invention, the ventilation opening also serves as an assembly opening. Dielectric problems are avoided by designing the radii around the assembly opening in a favorable manner. A cover for the assembly opening is not required in the invention. Since the mounting opening also serves as a ventilation opening, this opening should not be covered. The combination of the assembly opening and ventilation opening enables easier assembly of components (e.g. waveguide, contacts, etc.) on the hollow body as well as optimized gas convection between the inside and the outside of the hollow body.

Um die thermische Konvektion zu optimieren können mindestens zwei Lüftungsöffnungen an dem Hohlkörper angeordnet werden. Bei Bedarf kann der Hohlkörper auch mehrere Lüftungsöffnungen aufweisen. An dieser Stelle sei hervorgehoben, dass die Anzahl der Öffnungen nicht beliebig zu erhöhen ist, da der elektrische Widerstand des Hohlkörpers durch zu viele Öffnungen vergrößert wird. Daher muss bei Anordnen der Lüftungsöffnungen und Auswahl deren Anzahl beachtet werden, dass die elektrische Leitfähigkeit des Hohlkörpers nicht verhindert wird.In order to optimize thermal convection, at least two ventilation openings can be arranged on the hollow body. If necessary, the hollow body can also have several ventilation openings exhibit. At this point it should be emphasized that the number of openings cannot be increased arbitrarily, since the electrical resistance of the hollow body is increased by too many openings. Therefore, when arranging the ventilation openings and selecting their number, care must be taken to ensure that the electrical conductivity of the hollow body is not prevented.

Es ist zweckmäßig, wenn eine der Lüftungsöffnungen als Montageöffnung dient. Es ist aber auch möglich, dass bei Bedarf mehrere Lüftungsöffnungen als Montageöffnungen dienen.It is useful if one of the ventilation openings serves as a mounting opening. However, it is also possible that several ventilation openings serve as mounting openings if required.

Bei der Verbindung der Hohlleiter mit der Verbindungsvorrichtung sind die Hohlleiter mit Verbindungselementen an den Aufnahmeöffnungen des Hohlkörpers zu fixieren. Dabei sind die Aufnahmeöffnungen von den Hohlleitern zugedeckt. Daher sind die Verbindungselemente nicht direkt außen an der Verbindungsstelle erreichbar. Durch die Montageöffnung können die Verbindungselemente von der Außenseite des Hohlkörpers erreicht werden. Es kann sich bei den Verbindungselementen um Schrauben handeln.When connecting the waveguide to the connecting device, the waveguide is to be fixed with connecting elements to the receiving openings of the hollow body. The receiving openings are covered by the waveguides. Therefore, the connection elements cannot be reached directly on the outside at the connection point. The connecting elements can be reached from the outside of the hollow body through the assembly opening. The connecting elements can be screws.

Hohlleiter sind metallische Rohre mit rundem, elliptischem oder rechteckigem Querschnitt. Um die Aufnahmeöffnung vollständig zu überdecken kann die Aufnahmeöffnung so ausgestaltet werden, dass deren Form dem Querschnitt des zu verbindenden Hohlleiters entspricht.Waveguides are metallic tubes with a round, elliptical or rectangular cross-section. In order to completely cover the receiving opening, the receiving opening can be designed such that its shape corresponds to the cross section of the waveguide to be connected.

Ferner von Vorteil ist es, dass der Hohlkörper einteilig gefertigt ist. Der Hohlkörper kann beispielsweise einteilig gegossen werden.It is also advantageous that the hollow body is made in one piece. The hollow body can be cast in one piece, for example.

Zum Ermöglichen einer Abzweigung an einer Hohlleiterverbindung ist der Hohlkörper T-förmig ausgestaltet.In order to enable a branch on a waveguide connection, the hollow body is designed in a T-shape.

In Fign. 1 und 2 ist eine Verbindungsvorrichtung gemäß einem Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung gezeigt. Wie anhand von Fig. 1 zu erkennen ist, dass die Verbindungsvorrichtung 10 einen T-förmigen Hohlkörper 12 aufweist. Der Hohlkörper 12 verfügt über eine obere Stirnseite 14, zwei seitliche Stirnseiten 16 und eine Bodenseite 18. Wie in Fig. 2 gezeigt weist der Hohlkörper 12 eine obere Aufnahmeöffnung 20 und zwei seitliche Aufnahmeöffnungen 22 auf, wobei die obere Aufnahmeöffnung 20 auf der oberen Stirnseite des Hohlkörpers 14 und eine seitliche Aufnahmeöffnung 22 jeweils auf einer der beiden seitlichen Stirnseiten 16 angeordnet ist. Bei diesem Ausführungsbeispiel weist der Hohlkörper 12 drei Lüftungsöffnungen auf. Auf der Vorderseite und Hinterseite des Hohlkörpers 12 ist jeweils eine langförmige Lüftungsöffnungen 24 angeordnet. Auf der Bodenseite des Hohlkörpers 18 ist eine Öffnung 26 angeordnet, die sowohl als Lüftungsöffnung als auch als Montageöffnung dient. Es wird im Folgenden anhand von Fign. 3 und 4 näher erläutert, wie eine Montage durch die Montageöffnung 26 durchgeführt ist und wie eine Konvektion durch die Lüftungsöffnungen 24, 26 läuft.In Fig. 1 and 2 a connection device according to an embodiment of the invention is shown. As with Fig. 1 It can be seen that the connecting device 10 has a T-shaped hollow body 12. The hollow body 12 has an upper end face 14, two lateral end faces 16 and a bottom side 18. As in FIG Fig. 2 shown, the hollow body 12 has an upper receiving opening 20 and two lateral receiving openings 22, the upper receiving opening 20 being arranged on the upper end face of the hollow body 14 and a lateral receiving opening 22 in each case on one of the two lateral end faces 16. In this embodiment, the hollow body 12 has three ventilation openings. On the front and rear of the hollow body 12, a long ventilation openings 24 are arranged. An opening 26 is arranged on the bottom side of the hollow body 18 and serves both as a ventilation opening and as an assembly opening. It is explained below using Fig. 3rd and 4th explains in more detail how assembly is carried out through assembly opening 26 and how convection runs through ventilation openings 24, 26.

Fig. 3 verdeutlicht den Zusammenbau von der Verbindungsvorrichtung und den Hohlleitern. An der oberen Aufnahmeöffnung 20 ist ein oberer Hohlleiter 28 angeordnet. Die Befestigung des oberen Hohlleiters 28 an der oberen Aufnahmeöffnung 20 wird anhand von Fig. 4 noch näher erläutert. Wie man anhand von Fig. 3 ferner erkennen kann, ist an jeder seitlichen Aufnahmeöffnung 22 ein seitlicher Hohlleiter 30 angeordnet. Der Hohlleiter 30 ist mit mehreren Verbindungselementen 32 an der seitlichen Aufnahmeöffnung 22 fixiert. In diesem Ausführungsbeispiel sind Schrauben 34 als die Verbindungselemente 32 verwendet. Es ist aber auch möglich, andere Elemente als Verbindungselemente 32 einzusetzen. Fig. 3 illustrates the assembly of the connecting device and the waveguides. An upper waveguide 28 is arranged at the upper receiving opening 20. The attachment of the upper waveguide 28 to the upper receiving opening 20 is based on Fig. 4 explained in more detail. How to use Fig. 3 can also see, a lateral waveguide 30 is arranged on each side receiving opening 22. The waveguide 30 is fixed to the lateral receiving opening 22 with a plurality of connecting elements 32. In this embodiment, screws 34 are used as the connection members 32. However, it is also possible to use elements other than connecting elements 32.

Wie in Fig. 3 gezeigt die Hohlleiter 30 sind an dem Hohlkörper 12 von innen angeschraubt. Daher wären die Schrauben 34 von der Außenseite des Hohlkörpers 12 nicht erreichbar, wenn die Montageöffnung 26 nicht vorhanden wäre. Die Montageöffnung 26 ermöglicht es, dass man durch sie die Schrauben 34 leicht erreichen kann. Angesichts des dielektrischen Problems soll die Montageöffnung 26 auch nicht zu groß sein. Die Montageöffnung 26 soll so groß sein, dass ein Monteur durch diese Montageöffnung 26 die Schrauben 34 leicht montieren kann. Jedoch soll die Leitfähigkeit des Hohlkörpers 12 durch die Montageöffnung 26 möglichst wenig beeinträchtigt werden. Als Lüftungsöffnung ermöglicht die große Öffnung 26 gleichzeitig eine wirkungsvolle Konvektion. In Fig. 3 ist ferner eine Luftströmung 36 gezeigt, die durch die Lüftungs- und Montageöffnung 26 und die langförmige Lüftungsöffnung 24 läuft. Mittels dieser Luftströmung 36 wird eine Wärmeübertragung zwischen der Innenseite und der Außenseite des Hohlkörpers 12 ausgeführt.As in Fig. 3 shown the waveguide 30 are screwed to the hollow body 12 from the inside. Therefore, the screws 34 would not be accessible from the outside of the hollow body 12 if the mounting opening 26 were not present. The mounting opening 26 enables the screws 34 to be easily reached through it. In view of the dielectric problem, the mounting opening 26 should also not be too large. The mounting opening 26 should be so large that a fitter can easily mount the screws 34 through this mounting opening 26. However, the conductivity of the hollow body 12 should be affected as little as possible by the mounting opening 26. As a ventilation opening, the large opening 26 also enables effective convection. In Fig. 3 An air flow 36 is also shown, which runs through the ventilation and mounting opening 26 and the elongated ventilation opening 24. By means of this air flow 36, heat transfer is carried out between the inside and the outside of the hollow body 12.

Fig. 4 zeigt eine Untenansicht des Zusammenbaus von der Verbindungsvorrichtung und den Hohlleitern. Man kann anhand von Fig. 4 gut erkennen, dass die Montageöffnung 26 ebenfalls für die Montage des oberen Hohlleiters 28 geeignet ist. Da der obere Hohlleiter 28 ebenfalls an dem Hohlkörper 12 von innen festgeschraubt ist, muss der Monteur das Festschrauben durch die Montageöffnung 26 durchführen. Fig. 4 shows a bottom view of the assembly of the connecting device and the waveguides. You can use Fig. 4 clearly see that the mounting opening 26 is also suitable for mounting the upper waveguide 28. Since the upper waveguide 28 is also screwed to the hollow body 12 from the inside, the fitter must carry out the screwing through the assembly opening 26.

Fig. 5 verdeutlicht einen Zusammenbau von der Verbindungsvorrichtung, den Hohlleitern und einem Steckkontakt. In diesem Ausführungsbeispiel ist an einer der beiden seitlichen Aufnahmeöffnungen 22 ein Steckkontakt 38 statt des Hohlleiters 30 angeordnet. Fig. 5 illustrates an assembly of the connecting device, the waveguides and a plug contact. In this exemplary embodiment, a plug contact 38 is arranged on one of the two lateral receiving openings 22 instead of the waveguide 30.
