Description

La présente invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'un parafoudre et un parafoudre obtenu par ce procédé.The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a lightning arrester and a lightning arrester obtained by this method.

Un parafoudre est un dispositif qui est placé entre le phase et la masse d'une ligne haute-tension et qui permet de limiter l'amplitude et la durée des surtensions atmosphériques (choc dû à la foudre et phénomènes d'induction dans les conducteurs), ou des surtensions électriques temporaires du réseau (choc de manoeuvre).A surge arrester is a device which is placed between the phase and the ground of a high-voltage line and which makes it possible to limit the amplitude and the duration of atmospheric overvoltages (shock due to lightning and induction phenomena in conductors) , or temporary electrical overvoltages in the network (operating shock).

Les fonctions d'un parafoudre sont donc d'une part de supporter en permanence la tension nominale de service, et d'autre part d'écouler le fort courant de décharge apparaissant lors d'une surtension temporaire, de façon à protéger les appareillages de la ligne (transformateurs...).The functions of a surge arrester are therefore on the one hand to permanently support the nominal operating voltage, and on the other hand to drain the strong discharge current appearing during a temporary overvoltage, so as to protect the equipment from the line (transformers ...).

Ces fonctions sont généralement assurées par une âme en un matériau du type varistance, à base par exemple d'oxyde de zinc ZnO, dont la résistivité électrique est fortement non linéaire en fonction de la tension appliquée.These functions are generally provided by a core of a material of the varistor type, based for example on zinc oxide ZnO, the electrical resistivity of which is highly non-linear as a function of the applied voltage.

Cette caractéristique de non linéarité permet à un tel parafoudre de laisser passer :
- un courant faible (par exemple de l'ordre de 0.5 mA/cm2) lorsque la tension de service est appliquée de façon permanente au parafoudre qui présente alors une résistance très grande. Ce courant est essentiellement d'origine capacitive puisque la permittivité relative de telle varistances est très élevée.
- un courant fort, pouvant atteindre plusieurs dizaines de kiloampères, lorsque la tension appliquée atteint un seuil d'amorçage à partir duquel la résistance des varistances devient très faible.
This characteristic of non-linearity allows such a surge arrester to let pass:
- a low current (for example of the order of 0.5 mA / cm2) when the operating voltage is permanently applied to the surge arrester which then has very high resistance. This current is essentially of capacitive origin since the relative permittivity of such varistors is very high.
- a strong current, which can reach several tens of kiloamperes, when the applied voltage reaches a starting threshold from which the resistance of the varistors becomes very low.

Un connaît différentes structures de parafoudres mettant en oeuvre une âme centrale comprenant plusieurs pastilles cylindriques empilées, en matériau de type varistance, et deux ferrures extrêmes en contact électrique avec les pastilles, par exemple par l'intermédiaire de ressorts.One knows different structures of surge arresters using a central core comprising several stacked cylindrical pads, of varistor type material, and two extreme fittings in electrical contact with the pads, for example by means of springs.

Selon un procédé de fabrication de l'art antérieur décrit dans le brevet US-A-4 656 555, on réalise un empilement des pastilles avec des ressorts très résistants interposés et des ferrures extrêmes, en appliquant une compression importante pouvant aller jusqu'à plusieurs dizaines de kg/cm2 suivant la direction de l'axe de l'empilement. On effectue ensuite autour de l'ensemble ainsi comprimé un enroulement filamentaire de fibres de verre imprégnées de résine. L'enroulement est réalisé avec un angle très faible par rapport audit axe ; la fibre est tendue successivement autour d'un épaulement d'une ferrure puis autour de l'épaulement correspondant de la ferrure opposée. Un tel enroulement présente une très forte résistance mécanique dans le sens longitudinal, destinée à équilibrer la précontrainte induite dans l'empilement de pastilles avant et pendant le bobinage. La résistance à une telle précontrainte longitudinale implique nécessairement la création de contraintes de cisaillement à l'interface entre l'empilement des pastilles et l'enveloppe formée par l'enroulement filamentaire tendu, notamment en cas de variations thermiques, car les matériaux constitutifs de l'ensemble ont des caractéristiques mécaniques très différentes. Le décollement de l'enveloppe par rapport à l'empilement peut alors être le siège de décharges partielles ou d'une activité d'arcs suffisante qui peut, à plus ou moins long terme, conduire à une dégradation et même au court-circuit total de l'ensemble.According to a manufacturing process of the prior art described in US-A-4,656,555, a stack of the pellets is produced with very resistant springs interposed and extreme fittings, by applying a significant compression which can go up to several tens of kg / cm2 along the direction of the stacking axis. A filament winding of resin-impregnated glass fibers is then carried around the assembly thus compressed. The winding is carried out at a very small angle relative to said axis; the fiber is stretched successively around a shoulder of a fitting then around the corresponding shoulder of the opposite fitting. Such a winding has very high mechanical strength in the longitudinal direction, intended to balance the prestress induced in the stack of pellets before and during winding. Resistance to such a longitudinal prestress necessarily implies the creation of shear stresses at the interface between the stack of pellets and the envelope formed by the taut filament winding, in particular in the event of thermal variations, since the materials constituting the have very different mechanical characteristics. The detachment of the envelope relative to the stack can then be the site of partial discharges or of sufficient arcing activity which can, in the more or less long term, lead to degradation and even to total short-circuit. from the whole.

La présente invention a pour but de mettre en oeuvre un procédé de fabrication d'un parafoudre aboutissant à un produit plus fiable que le parafoudre de l'art antérieur.The present invention aims to implement a method of manufacturing a lightning arrester resulting in a more reliable product than the lightning arrester of the prior art.

La présente invention a pour objet un procédé de fabrication d'un parafoudre dans lequel on réalise tout d'abord un empilement de pastilles en un matériau de type varistance avec des entretoises, des ferrures extrêmes, et des moyens pour assurer la continuité électrique entre les pastilles, et entre les pastilles et les deux ferrures, puis on effectue un enroulement filamentaire autour de cet ensemble, procédé caractérisé par le fait
- que ledit empilement est monté dans un dispositif pour la réalisation dudit enroulement filamentaire, de manière que soit obtenue seulement une parfaite coaxialité de tous ses constituants,
- que ledit enroulement filamentaire de fibres de verre imprégnées de résine est effectué de manière telle qu'il assure une adhérisation et un frettage radial dudit empilement, sans compression longitudinale,
- et que, après la polymérisation de la résine de l'enveloppe ainsi formée, on injecte sur elle un revêtement en matériau élastomère de type E.P.D.M.
The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a lightning arrester in which first of all a stack of pellets is made of a varistor type material with spacers, extreme fittings, and means for ensuring electrical continuity between the pellets, and between the pellets and the two fittings, then a filament winding is carried out around this assembly, a process characterized by the fact
that said stack is mounted in a device for producing said filament winding, so that only perfect coaxiality of all its constituents is obtained,
that said filament winding of glass fibers impregnated with resin is carried out in such a way that it ensures adhesion and radial shrinking of said stack, without longitudinal compression,
- And that, after the polymerization of the resin of the envelope thus formed, a coating of elastomeric material of the type is injected thereon EPDM

L'enroulement filamentaire a donc pour seule fonction de solidariser les pastilles entre elles, en étant très adhérent aussi bien sur leur surface latérale que sur celle des entretoises, et en présentant une résistance mécanique très élevée dans le sens radial. L'angle des spires est très ouvert par rapport à l'axe dudit empilement. Ainsi, l'angle de bobinage par rapport à l'axe de l'ensemble est compris entre 80° et 90°.The filament winding therefore has the sole function of joining the pellets together, being very adherent both on their lateral surface and on that of the spacers, and having a very high mechanical resistance in the radial direction. The angle of the turns is very open relative to the axis of said stack. Thus, the winding angle relative to the axis of the assembly is between 80 ° and 90 °.

Selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel, on choisit des entretoises tubulaires à l'intérieur desquelles sont disposés des moyens de connexion électrique entre les faces métallisées de deux pastilles adjacentes. Elles présentent en outre des évidements pour guider radialement lesdites pastilles.According to a preferred embodiment, one chooses tubular spacers inside which are arranged electrical connection means between the metallized faces of two adjacent pads. They also have recesses to guide said pads radially.

Lesdits moyens de connexion électrique sont constitués par exemple par un ressort de faible pression associé à des lamelles métalliques appliquées respectivement contre lesdites faces métallisées.Said electrical connection means are constituted for example by a low pressure spring associated with metal lamellae applied respectively against said metallized faces.

Selon une variante équivalente, lesdits moyens de connexion électrique sont constitués par un fil soudé à des lamelles métalliques appliquées respectivement contre lesdites faces métallisées.According to an equivalent variant, said electrical connection means consist of a wire welded to metal strips applied respectively against said metallized faces.

L'invention a également pour objet un parafoudre comprenant un empilement de pastilles en un matériau de type varistance avec des entretoises et des ferrures d'extrémités, et une enveloppe en fibres de verre imprégnées de résine, caractérisé par le fait que lesdites entretoises sont tubulaires, qu'elles comportent, comme les ferrures d'extrémité, dans des logements internes des moyens pour assurer la liaison électrique dans tout l'empilement, que ladite enveloppe assure un frettage radial dudit empilement sans compression axiale, avec adhérence sur les surfaces latérales desdites pastilles, desdites entretoises et desdites ferrures, et que ladite enveloppe est munie d'un revêtement à ailettes en élastomère injecté.The invention also relates to a surge arrester comprising a stack of pellets of a varistor type material with spacers and end fittings, and a casing made of glass fibers impregnated with resin, characterized in that the said spacers are tubular , that they comprise, like the end fittings, in internal housings means for ensuring the electrical connection throughout the stack, that said envelope provides radial shrinking of said stack without axial compression, with adhesion to the lateral surfaces of said pellets, said spacers and said fittings, and that said envelope is provided with a finned coating of injected elastomer.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention apparaîtront au cours de la description suivante d'un mode de réalisation donné à titre illustratif mais nullement limitatif. Dans le dessin annexé la figure unique est une vue partielle schématique en coupe d'un parafoudre selon l'invention.Other characteristics and advantages of the present invention will appear during the following description of an embodiment given by way of illustration but in no way limitative. In the accompanying drawing the single figure is a partial schematic sectional view of a surge arrester according to the invention.

On part de deux ferrures d'extrémités 3 et d'un ensemble de pastilles 1 en oxyde de zinc, métallisées suivant leurs faces planes 6. On réalise un empilement ayant un axe commun 10 en interposant entre les pastilles 1 des entretoises tubulaires 2, qui peuvent être métalliques ou isolantes. Elles présentent un évidement 12 permettant un guidage radial des pastilles 1, et un logement interne 13 ; de même, les ferrures 3 comportent un évidement 15 et un logement 14.We start from two end fittings 3 and a set of pads 1 made of zinc oxide, metallized along their flat faces 6. A stack having a common axis 10 is produced by interposing between the pellets 1 tubular spacers 2, which may be metallic or insulating. They have a recess 12 allowing radial guidance of the pellets 1, and an internal housing 13; likewise, the fittings 3 comprise a recess 15 and a housing 14.

Afin d'assurer le continuité électrique, on dispose dans les logements 13 et 14 des lamelles métalliques 11 en contact avec les faces métallisées 6 des pastilles 1 avec des ressorts 7 de faible pression.In order to ensure electrical continuity, there are in the housings 13 and 14 metal strips 11 in contact with the metallized faces 6 of the pads 1 with springs 7 of low pressure.

Tout cet ensemble est mis en place dans un dispositif pour la réalisation de l'enroulement filamentaire. On enroule autour de l'empilement une ou plusieurs nappes de fibres de verre 4 imprégnées de résine de manière à assurer un frettage radial ; l'angle de bobinage par rapport à l'axe 10 est très ouvert. Il est compris entre 80° et 90°. L'enveloppe ainsi formée est parfaitement adhérente aux surfaces latérales des ferrures 3, des entretoises 2 et des pastilles 1. Elle n'assure aucune compression axiale sur cet ensemble.All of this is put in place in a device for making the filament winding. One or more layers of resin-impregnated glass fibers 4 are wound around the stack so as to ensure radial shrinking; the winding angle relative to the axis 10 is very open. It is between 80 ° and 90 °. The envelope thus formed is perfectly adherent to the lateral surfaces of the fittings 3, of the spacers 2 and of the pads 1. It does not provide any axial compression on this assembly.

Au moment du bobinage, les entretoises 2 ont une fonction d'étanchéité et empêchent la résine imprégnant les fibres 4 de s'infiltrer entre les pastilles 1. Ces entretoises peuvent être réalisées en une résine analogue à celle de la résine d'imprégnation de manière à favoriser encore l'adhérence de l'enveloppe.At the time of winding, the spacers 2 have a sealing function and prevent the resin impregnating the fibers 4 from infiltrating between the pellets 1. These spacers can be made of a resin similar to that of the impregnation resin so to further promote the adhesion of the envelope.

Après polymérisation de cette enveloppe, on injecte sur elle un revêtement à ailettes 5 en élastomère, par exemple en EPDM.After this envelope has polymerized, a finned coating 5 of elastomer, for example EPDM, is injected thereon.

Cette liaison mécanique entre l'enveloppe et l'empilement est totalement indépendante des moyens de connexion électrique entre les pastilles, et entre les pastilles et les deux ferrures 3.This mechanical connection between the envelope and the stack is completely independent of the electrical connection means between the pellets, and between the pellets and the two fittings 3.

Bien entendu l'invention n'est pas limitée au mode de réalisation qui vient d'être décrit. On pourra, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention remplacer tout moyen par un moyen équivalent. Ainsi la connexion électrique entre deux lamelles 11 peut être effectuée par un fil électrique soudé.Of course, the invention is not limited to the embodiment which has just been described. Without departing from the scope of the invention, any means may be replaced by equivalent means. Thus the electrical connection between two strips 11 can be made by a welded electrical wire.
