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 large, stability is high, inductance and shake is low, operating voltage is easy to adjust, firm, the advantage such as cost is low simple in structure, therefore in high voltage electrical technology field and Pulse Power Techniques field, be widely used.
Yet existing gas switch exists following problem: under large current lead-through condition, and the inhomogeneous situation of trigger electrode meeting ablation, this can affect 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, comprise top electrode, bottom electrode, insulating sleeve, metal sleeve, it is characterized in that: top electrode and bottom electrode are axially and are symmetrical arranged, process 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 is tightly placed in the outside of bottom electrode, and the height of insulating sleeve is less than the height of bottom electrode, metal sleeve is tightly 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 made by the strong macromolecular material of insulation property.
Insulating sleeve is to be made by epoxy resin or bakelite.
Metal sleeve be by conduct electricity very well, resistant to elevated temperatures metal material makes.
Metal sleeve is to be made 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 made by 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 bottom electrode is serious descends has prolonged useful life of gas switch simultaneously.
2. process 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 from applying 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 allow make progress electrode direction motion of plasma, thereby effectively guarantees puncture and the conduction property of gas switch.

Embodiment
The present invention is further described below in conjunction with drawings and Examples.
As shown in Figure 1 and 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 made and be axially by high-density graphite material to be symmetrical arranged with bottom electrode 2.
Process 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 is tightly 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 is tightly 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, affects the gas switch performance.
Insulating sleeve is by the strong macromolecular material of insulation property, makes such as epoxy resin or bakelite etc.
Metal sleeve be by conduct electricity very well, resistant to elevated temperatures metal material, such as copper, tungsten alloy or stainless steel etc. made.
In the present embodiment, 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.
Process 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 affect switch performance.
Operation principle of the present invention is as follows: when work, apply certain voltage between top electrode 4 and bottom electrode 2 by 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 the 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 by the evolution of streamer in the streamer theory, thereby cause the switch main gap to puncture.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 the serious ablation of pin and affect the gas switch conduction property and shorten the gas switch problem in useful life; Simultaneously, the plasma that the side of bottom electrode 2 and metal sleeve 1 produce when discharge occurs is along groove to external movement, under the effect of electric field, move to top electrode 4 rapidly, form fast the discharge channel that runs through top electrode 4 and bottom electrode 2, can effectively guarantee the puncture of switch.
