Abstract

The invention discloses a gas switch which comprises an upper electrode, a lower electrode, an insulating sleeve and a metal sleeve, wherein the upper electrode and the lower electrode are prepared from a high-intensity graphite material and are symmetrically arranged axially; the lower part of the upper electrode, the upper part of the lower electrode and the upper part of the metal sleeve are all subjected to rounding-off treatment; the insulating sleeve is tightly sleeved at the external part of the lower electrode; the height of the insulating sleeve is lower than that of the lower electrode; the metal sleeve is tightly sleeved on the external part of the insulating sleeve, and the height of the metal sleeve is basically identical to that of the lower electrode. The metal sleeve tightly leans on the external part of the insulating sleeve, thus the problem of the declining of conducting performance of the gas switch caused by severe ablation of the lower electrode is avoided, and at the same time, the service life of the gas switch is prolonged; and additionally, a groove formed between the lower electrode and the metal sleeve can enable plasmas to move towards the direction of the upper electrode, thus the breakdown and conducting performances of the gas switch are ensured effectively.

Description

Gas switch
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of gas switch.
Background technology
Gas switch is as a kind of pulse power switch commonly used; Have that response is fast, loss is little, bear the voltage height, conduction current is big, stability is high, inductance and shake is low, operating voltage is easy to adjust, firm, advantage such as cost is low simple in structure, therefore in high voltage electrical technology field and Pulse Power Techniques field, has obtained application widely.
Yet existing gas switch exists following problem: under big current lead-through condition, and the trigger electrode uneven situation of can ablating, this can influence the conduction property and the useful life of gas switch, and has increased maintenance cost.
Summary of the invention
The object of the invention is to provide a kind of gas switch, and it can solve the problems of the technologies described above.
A kind of gas switch comprises top electrode, bottom electrode, insulating sleeve, metal sleeve, it is characterized in that: top electrode and bottom electrode are axially and are symmetrical set; Handle through rounding on the bottom of top electrode and the top of bottom electrode; The top edge of metal sleeve bends outwards into U-shaped, and insulating sleeve tightly is placed in the outside of bottom electrode, and the height of insulating sleeve is less than the height of bottom electrode; Metal sleeve tightly is placed in the outside of insulating sleeve, and the height of metal sleeve and the height of bottom electrode are basic identical.
Insulating sleeve is to be processed by the strong macromolecular material of insulation property.
Insulating sleeve is to be processed by epoxy resin or bakelite.
Metal sleeve be by conduct electricity very well, resistant to elevated temperatures metal material processes.
Metal sleeve is to be processed by copper, tungsten alloy or stainless steel.
Form groove between metal sleeve and the bottom electrode.
Top electrode and bottom electrode are cylinder.
Between metal sleeve and the bottom electrode, very close to each other between metal sleeve and the insulating sleeve.
Top electrode and bottom electrode are to be processed by the high-density graphite material.
Compared with prior art, there is following advantage in gas switch of the present invention:
1. metal sleeve abuts against the outside of insulating sleeve, thereby the problem that the gas switch conduction property that causes of having avoided ablating because of bottom electrode is serious descends has prolonged useful life of gas switch simultaneously.
2. handle through rounding on the top of the bottom of top electrode and bottom electrode, makes to form approximate uniform electric field between top electrode and the bottom electrode, effectively prevents electric field distortion.
3. the top edge of metal sleeve bends outwards into U-shaped, forms the electric field non-uniform areas in the time of can preventing to apply voltage between top electrode and bottom electrode, thereby has improved the gas switch performance.
4. the groove that forms between bottom electrode and the metal sleeve can let make progress electrode direction motion of plasma, thereby guarantees the puncture and the conduction property of gas switch effectively.

Fig. 2 is the vertical view of gas switch of the present invention.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and embodiment the present invention is further specified.
Like Fig. 1, shown in Figure 2, gas switch of the present invention comprises metal sleeve 1, bottom electrode 2, insulating sleeve 3 and top electrode 4.
Top electrode 4 is to be processed and be axially by the high-density graphite material to be symmetrical set with bottom electrode 2.
Handle through rounding on the top of the bottom of top electrode 4 and bottom electrode 2, makes to form approximate uniform electric field between top electrode 4 and the bottom electrode 2, effectively prevents electric field distortion.
Insulating sleeve 3 tightly is placed in the outside of bottom electrode 2, and the height of insulating sleeve 3 is less than the height of bottom electrode 2.
Metal sleeve 1 tightly is placed in the outside of insulating sleeve 3; The height of the height of metal sleeve 1 and bottom electrode 2 is basic identical; The top edge of metal sleeve 1 bends outwards into U-shaped, forms the electric field non-uniform areas when preventing that 2 of top electrode 4 and bottom electrodes from applying voltage, influences the gas switch performance.
Insulating sleeve is that for example epoxy resin or bakelite etc. are processed by the strong macromolecular material of insulation property.
Metal sleeve be by conduct electricity very well, resistant to elevated temperatures metal material, for example copper, tungsten alloy or stainless steel etc. are processed.
In this execution mode, top electrode 4, bottom electrode 2 are cylinder, and the height of the two is 40mm, and diameter is 80mm, and the height of insulating sleeve 3 is 25mm, and thickness is 6mm.
Between metal sleeve 1 and the bottom electrode 2, very close to each other between metal sleeve 1 and the insulating sleeve 3.
Handle through rounding on the top of metal sleeve 1, formation electric field pole non-uniform areas when preventing that 2 of top electrode 4 and bottom electrodes from applying voltage and influence switch performance.
Operation principle of the present invention is following: when work; Apply certain voltage between top electrode 4 and bottom electrode 2 through charging device, make and form certain electric field between the two, when trigger impulse voltage is put on metal sleeve 1; The gas gap of groove is breakdown between metal sleeve 1 and the bottom electrode 2; Thereby form a large amount of charged particles, and under the effect of Lorentz force, move to the groove outside direction, charged particle moves to top electrode 4 under effect of electric field between top electrode 4 and the bottom electrode 2; And then between top electrode 4 and bottom electrode 2, form the streamer passage that runs through, thereby cause the switch main gap to puncture by the evolution of streamer in the streamer theory.Because bottom electrode 2 discharges with metal sleeve 1 when applying trigger impulse voltage; This moment, the ablated area of discharging was the side of bottom electrode 2 and the inboard of metal sleeve 1, avoided traditional triggering pin type three electrode switch problem the problem includes:, trigger seriously ablation and influence the gas switch conduction property and shorten the gas switch problem in useful life of pin; Simultaneously; The plasma that the side of bottom electrode 2 and metal sleeve 1 produces when discharge takes place along groove to external movement; Under effect of electric field, move to top electrode 4 rapidly, form the discharge channel that runs through top electrode 4 and bottom electrode 2 fast, can effectively guarantee the puncture of switch.
