EP0026852A1 - Knee-shaped metal-encapsulated cable connecting device - Google Patents

Abstract

In order to be a cable end seal at the same time, the cable connecting device has a knee-shaped metal housing (1) to provide protection against external influences, to be able to absorb short- circuit currents with its sleeve, and to facilitate the switching of heavy cables into flat cable chambers, in which metal housing (1) an elastic dielectric (2) and electrodes (3) produced from elastic materials are arranged, which are used for potential control. Compression chambers (4,4') are advantageously provided in the electrical protection region of the electrodes (3) and in the metal sleeve (1a). <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE> <IMAGE>

Description

The invention relates to a novel metal-encapsulated cable connection device in an angled form.

Such designs in an angled form are only known from insulating material.

The invention is therefore based on the object to provide a metal-encapsulated cable connection device for switchgear in an angled form, which is also a cable end closure. Protection against external influences, e.g. As dirt or mechanical damage, exist, the sheath of the cable connection device should be able to absorb short-circuit currents, and the maneuvering of heavy cables in flat cable rooms should be made possible.

This object is achieved in that an elastic insulating material and electrodes made of elastic materials are arranged in an angled metal housing.

Embodiments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims.

The metal encapsulation ensures that the jacket of the connection device can also absorb short-circuit currents. The inventive design of a metal encapsulation also provides protection against external influences, e.g. B. dirt or mechanical damage. Protection against accidental contact is also provided.

The angled shape enables heavy cables to be maneuvered in flat cable compartments.

• Fig. 2 die metallgekapselte Kabelanschlußvorrichtung im Schnitt;
• Fig. 3 den Schnitt A - A nach Fig. 2; und
• Fig. 4 den Schnitt B - B nach Fig. 2.

An embodiment of the invention is shown in the drawing; show in it:

• Figure 1 shows the metal-enclosed cable connection device in an angled shape.
• Figure 2 shows the metal-encapsulated cable connection device in section.
• 3 shows the section A - A of FIG. 2. and
• 4 shows the section BB according to FIG. 2.

As FIGS. 1 to 4, in particular FIG. 2, show, an elastic insulating material 2 is arranged in the angled metal housing 1.

The electrodes 3 made of elastic materials, which are also located in FIG. 2 in the metal housing 1, are used for potential control. Are located in the electrical protection area of these electrodes 3 and in the metal jacket 1a Compression spaces 4, 4 'which allow cables to be used for one direction within certain cross-sectional tolerances.

For fastening the shielding of the cable 7, an earth connection 5 is integrated in the metal sheath 1a of the cable connection device. For the mechanical support of the cable 7, a bracket 6 is provided which is integral with the metal sheath 1a.
