Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coaxial line according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a coaxial line is known from DE 101 08 843 A known.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a coaxial line with improved cooling ability.
  • the coaxial line is characterized in that in the tubular inner conductor, a tube of smaller diameter closed at its two ends is arranged coaxially and that the annular space between this tube and the tubular inner conductor communicates with the channels in the Isolierstoff workn. Then, the cooling medium flows only through the annular gap or annulus between the tubular inner conductor and the enclosed by this and expediently also mounted at its ends to the relevant réelleleiterijns publisheden tube smaller diameter. With sufficient design of the ring cross-section, the cooling effect remains virtually unchanged, while significantly lower weight of the line and less effort required for the coolant circulation ancillaries.
  • the cooling of the thermally much less loaded outer conductor is not the subject of the invention. It can be done by means mounted on the outer conductor cooling fins, cooling coils or similar measures known per se.
  • insulating supports can be formed as outwardly guided through the outer conductor tubes (claim 2). Depending on the radial plane, three or four insulating supports, which are offset by 120 ° or 90 °, are generally sufficient. Depending on the required coolant flow, it may be sufficient to use only a portion of these insulating supports for supplying and discharging the cooling medium. By appropriate structural design of the Isolierstoff warn is then to ensure that no additional distortions of the RF field in the circumferential direction arise.
  • the Isolierstoff handn may be formed as a solid discs with radial channels (claim 3), for example, to divide the line into longitudinally-tight sections.
  • the channels of the Isolierstoff open into a chamber in an inner conductor connector at the end of the tubular inner conductor (claim 4).
  • the inner conductor connector also forms the bearing for the respective end of the tubular inner conductor.
  • the tube is the end face closed by a formed on the inner conductor connector flange (claim 5).
  • the tube may be closed at the end also via flanges, which are mounted axially and radially floating on the respective inner conductor connecting piece (claim 6).
  • the play in the axial direction avoids the emergence of axial constraining forces, either as a result of manufacturing tolerances, either because of different heat-dependent changes in length of the tube and this surrounding, tubular inner conductor.
  • the tube may have at its outer periphery against the inner wall of the tubular inner conductor supporting centering (claim 7). This ensures that the cross-section of the annular gap or annular space between the tubular inner conductor and the tube enclosed by it remains constant in the circumferential direction, uzw. even if the coaxial line overall describes a slight arc in the longitudinal direction.
  • the centering elements may be arranged along a helix, i. be arranged helically around the tube (claim 8), uzw. also as individual, spaced-apart elements.
  • centering elements may consist of axially extending webs (claim 9). This is aerodynamically more favorable than the arrangement along a helix.
  • the centering elements may be integral with the tube. (Claim 10). This is manufacturing technology particularly advantageous if the tube is not made of metal but of plastic.
  • tubular inner conductor may have in its jacket axial channels communicating with the channels in the Isolierstoff mann (claim 11).
  • Such an inner conductor can be made inexpensively, for example, as an extruded aluminum profile.
  • the coaxial line consists of separately cooled, electrically and mechanically interconnected sections (claim 12).
  • tubular inner conductors of adjoining sections of the line are best connected to one another via complementary plug connections (claim 13).
  • Such a complementary plug connection may consist of a flange plate terminating the chamber of the respective inner conductor connection with an axially extending first annular collar which engages over a second annular collar on the flange plate of the subsequent line section and in turn is contactingly overlapped by a ring of axially extending contact springs, which contacts the second Concentric annular collar surrounds (claim 14).
  • the first ring collar forms a kind of a plug, the second annular collar together with the contact spring ring the complementary coupler.
  • the free ends of the contact springs of the contact spring ring lie in a radial plane which is axially set back relative to the end face of the second annular collar containing radial plane (claim 15).
  • pre-centering is achieved when juxtaposing two line sections, in which the first annular collar engages over the second annular collar before the end face of the first annular collar comes to rest under the contact springs. This avoids that due to alignment springs to a damage of the contact springs and therefore to a non-uniform contact over the circumference, which would lead to the formation of reflections and intermodulation products as well as in the transmitted currents of several 1000 amps overheating and possibly Burning the contact surfaces would result.
  • the flange plates carrying the contacting annular collars are screwed to the associated inner conductor connecting pieces (claim 16).
  • the contact spring ring can be manufactured as a single part of the most suitable material for it. He will then be at his root with the Gland plate welded.
  • each of the tubular insulating material supports can be tilted with its inner end in the inner conductor connector and with its outer end in the réelleleiterwandung in an axial plane tilted (claim 19).
  • the tiltable mounting can be realized, for example, by annular beads at the respective ends of the insulating supports in conjunction with dome-shaped counter-bearings in the relevant recordings on the inner conductor connector and on a passage through the wall of the outer conductor.
  • FIG. 1 shows - shortened in the longitudinal direction - a portion of a coolable coaxial cable for transmitting very high RF power.
  • the line comprises an outer conductor tube 1, which is equipped at its two ends with connecting flanges 2.
  • the diameter of the outer conductor tube 1 may be in the range of 120 mm or more.

  • the Isolierstoff Caren 5 are tubular and sealed by the connecting flanges 2 led to the outside. Their inner ends are sealed (see the illustrated grooves for receiving O-rings) in recesses of the inner conductor connecting pieces 4th
  • Chambers 6 are formed in the inner conductor connecting pieces 4 and communicate with the channels 5.1 in the insulating supports 5 via bores such as 6.1.
  • the inner conductor connecting pieces 4 have a first flange 4.1, which is overlapped by the respective end of the inner conductor tube 3. With this flange 4.1, the relevant end of the inner conductor tube 3 is preferably welded continuously over a circumferential seam. Alternatively, between the periphery of the flange 4.1 and the end of the inner conductor tube 3, an O-ring may be provided (not shown).
  • the inner conductor links 4 have a second flange 4.2 of smaller diameter. This is overlapped by the respective end of a coaxially arranged in the inner conductor tube 3 tube 7 of smaller diameter.
  • This tube 7 is not in the field-filled space and therefore does not have to be made of metal.
  • the coaxial annular space 8 between the tubular inner conductor 3 and the tube 7 communicates via holes 6.3 apertures 6.2 with the chamber 6 in the respective inner conductor connector 4, see also Fig. 2 ,

  • each chamber 6 On its side facing away from the tubular inner conductor 2, each chamber 6 is closed by a flange plate 10 or 11, which is connected to the inner conductor connector 4 via screws 9.
  • the flange plate 10 on the one (in Fig. 1 left) end of the line section has an axially oriented annular collar 10.1 with an inner diameter d1.
  • the flange plate 11 on the other (in Fig. 1 right) end of the line section has an annular collar 11.1 with the smaller outer diameter d2 ⁇ d1.

  • Fig. 5 the line sections A and B are shown in the interconnected state.
  • the Jardinleiter fürsflansche 2 are screwed together as usual via tie rods 21.
