Definitions

  • the present invention relates to surge protective devices intended for the protection of power lines, in particular of medium voltage overhead lines.
  • the invention especially refers to lightning arresters in which the insulation element disposed between the two terminal connection capsules is constituted by a stack of varistors based on zinc oxide (ZnO) maintained under axial pressure. It is known that in normal operation, such a stack has insulation characteristics which oppose any passage of current between the two connection capsules, while under the effect of a sudden rise in the nominal voltage due to the fall of lightning on the protected line, it temporarily becomes conductive by ensuring the earthing of said line. See also US-A-4,404,614.
  • ZnO zinc oxide
  • the present invention mainly intends to remedy, which relates to the arrester device defined in claim 1.
  • the usual rigid tube which encloses the insulation element is cut out with at least one lumen while the envelope is directly produced by molding on said element so that the synthetic resin penetrates the inside said tube and coats the stack of varistors which constitutes with the connection capsules the insulating element.
  • the ends of the outer casing of molded resin are profiled to present a lip with circular profile which is oriented axially towards the outside in order to come to engage in a corresponding annular housing. formed in each of two metal members forming contacts for mounting the arrester device.
  • Fig. 1 is an axial section showing, prior to the overmolding operation intended for the production of the external envelope, the internal core formed by the stack of varistors, the two connection capsules and the rigid protection tube.
  • Fig. 2 reproduced fig. 1 after completion of the outer envelope.
  • Fig. 3 and 4 are cross sections along the planes respectively indicated in III-III (fig. 1) and IV-IV (fig. 2).
  • Fig. 5 shows in axial section the upper end of the arrester device finally produced.
  • Fig. 6 is an elevational view illustrating an alternative embodiment of the rigid tube.
  • reference 1 designates each of the varistors based on zinc oxide, the stacking of which constitutes the insulating element of the arrester device to be produced. This stack is supported against a connection capsule 2 and receives the action of a spring 3 associated with another connection capsule 4.
  • the assembly 1-2-3-4 thus formed is housed with reduced play inside. of a glass laminate tube 5, firmly made integral with the two terminal capsules 2 and 4 by means of transverse pins 6.
  • the tube 5 is cut out from longitudinal slots 5 a (cf. fig. 3), three in number in the exemplary embodiment envisaged. Each of these lights has 5 stops short of fixing pins 6.
  • the assembly or core shown in fig. 1 is then placed inside an injection mold, shaped so that the injected synthetic resin forms an envelope 7 (fig. 2) which coats said together by determining external fins 7 a projecting.
  • the resin injected advantageously constituted by a silicone-based elastomer, penetrates inside the tube 5 through the openings 5 a thereof, so that a total filling is obtained, without any bubbles d air, from the annular gap between the varistors 1 and the tube 5, as illustrated in FIG. 4.
  • the casing 7 opens outwards by defining an axial lip 7 b with a circular profile.
  • Each of these lips 7 b is in fact intended to be forcibly engaged within an annular housing 8 has (Fig. 5) provided for this purpose in a clean metal member to form outer contact connection, consisting by an end cap 8 reported at each end of the casing 7, the fixing of said cups being effected with the aid of threaded bolts 9 are screwed into threaded bores 4a, respectively 2a, the capsules 4 and 2.
  • the appearance of an arc along the stack of varistors 1 causes the carbonization and / or the melting of the resin which fills the openings 5 a , so that under the effect of the pressure of the gases generated, the casing 7 tears along the generators corresponding to the aforementioned lights. Such a tear allows the escape of gases into the atmosphere, without sudden explosion.
  • Fig. 6 illustrates a variant implementation of the invention, according to which the rigid tube, here referenced 15, is cut from a lumen 15 a with helical profile which thus replaces the longitudinal lumens 5 a and which gives said tube 15 elastic deformability in the axial direction such as by assigning it a calculated length so that the mounting of the varistors 1 and of the capsules 2 and 4 implies a pulling effect at the level of the tube 15, it is possible to dispense with the spring 3 intended to operate the initial compression of the stack of varistors 1.
