Description

La présente invention se rapporte aux traversées de paroi antidéflagrante et, plus particulièrement mais non uniquement, à des traversées de paroi utilisées pour l'alimentation électrique des pompes submersibles.The present invention relates to explosion-proof wall bushings and, more particularly, but not exclusively, to wall bushings used for powering submersible pumps.

Une traversée de paroi de ce genre doit être étanche et être antidéflagrante.A wall penetration of this type must be leakproof and explosion-proof.

On connaît déjà une traversée de paroi comprenant un connecteur électrique relié à un faisceau de câble. Seulement la partie du connecteur voisine du faisceau et la partie du faisceau voisine du connecteur sont enrobées d'une masse de résine. Autrement dit, le connecteur dépasse d'un côté de la masse de résine et le faisceau de câble sort de l'autre côté. La résine est entourée d'un corps tubulaire métallique comportant du côté opposé au connecteur un taraudage. Un chapeau de presse étoupe de compression d'une garniture d'étanchéité est prévu du côté opposé au connecteur. Une traversée de paroi de ce genre est décrite au modèle d'utilité allemand G 9413463.4. La masse de résine y est présentée comme assurant un effet antidéflagrant. Dans le cas où la résine perd de son efficacité l'effet antidéflagrant n'est plus assuré.There is already known a wall penetration comprising an electrical connector connected to a cable harness. Only the portion of the adjacent connector of the beam and the portion of the neighboring beam of the connector are coated with a mass of resin. In other words, the connector protrudes from one side of the resin mass and the cable harness exits the other side. The resin is surrounded by a tubular metal body having on the opposite side to the connector a tapping. A packing gland packing cap of a packing is provided on the opposite side to the connector. A wall crossing of this kind is described in the German utility model G 9413463.4. The resin mass is presented as providing an explosion-proof effect. In the case where the resin loses its effectiveness the explosion-proof effect is no longer ensured.

L'invention remédie à cet inconvénient par une traversée de paroi dont l'effet antidéflagrant est parfaitement assuré, tout en conservant une étanchéité et en ayant également un effet nouvellement mis à jour d'anticapillarité.The invention overcomes this disadvantage by a wall penetration whose explosion-proof effect is perfectly ensured, while maintaining a seal and also having a newly updated anticapillarity effect.

L'invention a pour objet une traversée de paroi du type mentionné ci-dessus dans laquelle il est prévu une pièce intermédiaire ayant un filetage pour le corps qui coopère avec le taraudage du corps et la longueur du taraudage du corps est suffisante pour assurer un effet antidéflagrant, la pièce intermédiaire ayant un filetage pour le chapeau qui coopère avec un taraudage du chapeau et le chapeau vissé sur la pièce intermédiaire comprime la garniture d'étanchéité, le taraudage du chapeau ayant une longueur suffisante pour assurer un effet antidéflagrant.The invention relates to a wall penetration of the aforementioned type in which there is provided an intermediate piece having a thread for the body which cooperates with the tapping of the body and the length of the tapping of the body is sufficient to ensure an effect explosion-proof, the intermediate piece having a thread for the cap which cooperates with a tapping of the cap and the cap screwed on the intermediate piece compresses the seal, the tapping of the cap having a length sufficient to ensure an explosion-proof effect.

On ne s'en remet plus maintenant pour assurer l'effet antidéflagrant seulement à la masse de résine, mais on assure cet effet antidéflagrant par la conformation conforme aux normes des joints vissés tant entre le chapeau et la pièce intermédiaire qu'entre la pièce intermédiaire et le corps. S'il se produit une blessure dans le câble, de sorte que du liquide y suinte par capillarité, il est toujours empêché par la masse de résine d'atteindre le moteur électrique, l'antidéflagrance étant de toute façon conservée.It is now not relied on to provide the explosion-proof effect only to the resin mass, but this explosion-proof effect is ensured by conforming to the standards of the screwed seals both between the cap and the intermediate piece and between the intermediate piece. and the body. If there is a wound in the cable, so that liquid there oozing by capillary action, it is still prevented by the mass of resin to reach the electric motor, the explosion-proof is anyway preserved.

La Figure unique du dessin annexé est une vue en coupe d'une traversée de paroi suivant l'invention.The single FIGURE of the appended drawing is a sectional view of a wall penetration according to the invention.

La traversée de paroi représentée à la Figure comprend un connecteur 1 électrique relié à un faisceau 2 de câble. La partie du connecteur 1 voisine du faisceau 2 et la partie du faisceau 2 voisine du connecteur 1 sont enrobées d'une masse 3 de résine époxy. La résine est entourée d'un corps 4 tubulaire métallique muni de rainures 5 intérieures dans laquelle la résine vient s'accrocher. Le corps 4 tubulaire comporte du côté opposé au connecteur 1 un taraudage d'une longueur de 10 mm et ayant six spires.The wall penetration shown in FIG. 1 comprises an electrical connector 1 connected to a bundle 2 of cable. The portion of the connector 1 adjacent to the beam 2 and the portion of the beam 2 adjacent to the connector 1 are coated with a mass 3 of epoxy resin. The resin is surrounded by a metal tubular body 4 provided with internal grooves 5 in which the resin is hooked. The tubular body 4 has on the opposite side to the connector 1 a thread having a length of 10 mm and having six turns.

Une pièce 7 intermédiaire a un filetage 8 pour le corps 4, qui coopère avec le taraudage 6 du corps 4 qui a la même longueur et le même nombre de spires. La pièce intermédiaire a également un filetage 9 pour un chapeau 10 de presse étoupe de compression d'une garniture 11 d'étanchéité. Un taraudage 12 du chapeau 10 coopère avec le filetage 9. Le joint fileté entre 9 et 10 a un nombre de spires et une longueur qui, de la même façon que le joint fileté entre le filetage 8 et le taraudage 6 assure un effet antidéflagrant. Le chapeau 10 vissé sur la pièce 7 intermédiaire comprime la garniture 11 d'étanchéité.An intermediate piece 7 has a thread 8 for the body 4, which cooperates with the tapping 6 of the body 4 which has the same length and the same number of turns. The intermediate piece also has a thread 9 for a cap 10 compression gland of a packing 11 seal. A tapping 12 of the cap 10 cooperates with the thread 9. The threaded joint between 9 and 10 has a number of turns and a length which, in the same way that the threaded joint between the thread 8 and the tapping 6 ensures an explosion-proof effect. The cap 10 screwed on the intermediate part 7 compresses the seal 11.

Un étrier 13 vient de matière avec le corps 4 par matriçage.A stirrup 13 comes from material with the body 4 by stamping.

Même si la résine venait à manquer d'efficacité, l'effet antidéflagrant est assuré par la double coopération des joints filetés constitués, respectivement, par le filetage 8 et le taraudage 6 d'une part et par le filetage 9 et le taraudage 12 d'autre part. Si le câble est blessé, c'est-à-dire que de l'eau suinte à l'intérieur du câble, la résine conserve un rôle d'anticapillarité en empêchant que de l'eau passe le long du toron blessé et n'atteigne le côté du connecteur où se trouve le moteur.Even if the resin lacked efficiency, the explosion-proof effect is ensured by the double cooperation of the threaded joints constituted, respectively, by the threading 8 and the tapping 6 on the one hand and by the threading 9 and the thread 12 'somewhere else. If the cable is injured, that is to say that water seeps inside the cable, the resin retains a role of anticapillarity by preventing water from passing along the injured strand and does not reaches the side of the connector where the motor is.
