Definitions
- the present invention relates to the field of high voltage electrical connectors and more particularly to the field of high voltage electrical connectors for the space field.
- high voltage electrical connectors are known to those skilled in the art.
- high voltage electrical connectors is meant here and in the rest of the application connectors that can operate at a voltage greater than 5 kV. It is known to produce a high voltage connector via a direct wire connection comprising soldering of the wires in the high voltage modules and an overmolding of this module in order to produce the electrical insulation.
- the current solution is intrinsically limited and poses many problems in terms of logistics and means of production.
- the supply of more than two TWTs is particularly critical for the production of satellites comprising an active antenna which advantageously comprise a very large number of TWTs, thus creating significant complexity in the high voltage connections.
- high voltage electrical connectors are known to those skilled in the art. These connectors are designed to operate over a certain range of altitudes (from sea level to often 33,000 feet or 10,000m) i.e. for a predetermined pressure range. Typically, aeronautical connectors are sealed, for example by means of gaskets around the electrical contact, in order to keep the air trapped between the electrical contacts at atmospheric pressure.
- this type of connector is not necessarily designed to operate for a very long life (15 years or more) as is necessary in the space sector. Indeed, in aeronautics, they will be subject to a maintenance plan leading to their upkeep or replacement. The use of a seal raises many questions about the behavior of the connector during its inevitable degassing during a very long period of use. Indeed, hermeticity is not perfect and necessarily includes a micro leak which will change the internal pressure of the connector.
- an object of the invention is a high-voltage electrical connector for the space domain comprising a male portion and a female portion intended to make an electrical contact.
- the connector of the invention is ventilated and has the advantage of making it possible to easily separate the male portion and the female portion.
- ventilation it is meant here and in the rest of the description that the connector is capable of being pumped so as to reach a high vacuum (pressure less than 10 -6 mbar) or less, particularly in its electrical contact region.
- the leakage duct constitutes the sole means of air circulation between the female structured region and the male structured region as far as the outside of said connector.
- a portion of the leakage duct in which the electrical contact is arranged extends in the direction x, so that said portion is substantially perpendicular to the field lines associated with said contact electric.
- a thickness of the leakage duct is sufficiently small so that there is no electrical breakdown in the air at a pressure of 1 Pa within the leakage duct
- the male structured region is adapted so that a so-called male creepage line between the electrical contact and the male outer shell, passing through a surface of the leakage duct included in the dielectric block male, has a length greater than a predetermined dielectric breakdown distance and associated with said predetermined voltage, at atmospheric pressure, and in which the female structured region is adapted so that a so-called female creepage line between the electrical contact and the outer shell female passing through a surface of the leakage duct included in the female dielectric block has a length greater than said predetermined dielectric breakdown distance.
- the male creepage line has a length greater than 1.2 cm and the female creepage line has a length greater than 1.2 cm, for a predetermined voltage of 7 kV.
- the number of openings and the size of the openings are adapted according to a volume of the leak conduit, so that it is possible to obtain a high vacuum in the leakage duct in a predetermined time.
- the male and female recess are in the form of a hollow cylinder.
- the device comprises a plurality of elementary connectors.
- said elementary connectors are arranged so as to form a line or a matrix.
- the device comprises a first elementary connector and a second elementary connector aligned in a direction y perpendicular to x, sharing the same leakage conduit, and in which a so-called male intercontact creepage line, between the electrical contact of the first elementary connector and the electrical contact of the second elementary connector, passing through a surface of the leakage conduit included in the male dielectric block, has a length greater than a predetermined dielectric breakdown distance, and associated with the predetermined voltage, at atmospheric pressure, and in wherein a so-called female intercontact creepage line between the electrical contact of the first elementary connector and the electrical contact of the second elementary connector passing through a surface of the leakage conduit included in the female dielectric block has a length greater than said predetermined breakdown distance.
- the invention relates to a high-voltage electrical connector 1 for the space domain comprising a male portion M and a female portion F intended to make an electrical contact CE.
- THE Figures 1A, 1B And 1 C schematically illustrate a view in section along a plane ( x , y ) of, respectively, the male portion M, the female portion F and the connector 1 according to the invention, with the male portion M and the female portion F plugged.
- the connector of the invention is ventilated and makes it possible to easily separate the male portion and the female portion.
- it is suitable for use at atmospheric pressure and under high vacuum, for a very long life (more than 15 years). However, it is not functional during depressurization, that is to say during high vacuum, starting from atmospheric pressure and before reaching high vacuum.
- the male portion M comprises a metallic male outer shell CM and the female portion F comprises a metallic female outer shell CF.
- These shells CM and CF are protective shells known to those skilled in the art.
- the male portion M further comprises a male dielectric block DM encapsulated by the male shell CM.
- the block DM is for example made of polyetheretherketone (also called PEEK) or else of any dielectric material known to those skilled in the art.
- the block DM further has a so-called male RSM structured region comprising a so-called male recess RM.
- the male portion M comprises a male part PM of the electrical contact CE, embedded at least partially in the dielectric block DM.
- the male part comprises a so-called male end EM which is arranged in the male recess RM.
- This male part PM is known to those skilled in the art and is suitable for connection to a high voltage power supply (not shown in the Figures 1A-1C ). In the invention, by convention, the male part extends along the direction x.
- Portion F also comprises a female dielectric block DF encapsulated by female shell CF and having a female structured region RSF comprising a female recess RF.
- This block DF is also an electrical insulator which will make it possible, via its cooperation with the block DM, to ensure correct electrical operation of the connector 1 at atmospheric pressure and under high vacuum.
- the portion F comprises a female part PF of the electrical contact CE, embedded at least partially in the female dielectric block DF and extending in the direction x.
- a so-called female end EF of the female part is placed in the female recess RF and the female end EF is adapted so that the male end EM can fit into the female end EF to create the CE electrical contact.
- the electrical contact CE is defined as the contact area between the male end EM and the female end EF. The principle of creating electrical contact from a male end EM and a female end EF, capable of being nested one inside the other, is well known to those skilled in the art.
- elementary connector CNE denotes an assembly formed by the male part PM, the female part PF, the male recess RM and the female recess RF.
- the outer male shell CM or female CF has at least one opening O passing through the shell and leading to the outside of the connector.
- These openings also called “vent holes”, make it possible to place the connector 1 under a high vacuum in order to achieve its electrical insulation.
- the shell CM comprises two openings O.
- the shell CM comprises a number of openings other than two.
- the male structured region RSM has a shape complementary to a shape of the female structured region RSF, so whether the male structured region is capable of being inserted into the female structured region or vice versa.
- the two structured regions are configured to, when inserted into one another, allow CE electrical contact and the creation of an AC leakage conduit between the female structured region and the male structured region.
- This duct allows the circulation of the air comprised between the female structured region and the male structured region up to the opening.
- the AC leakage duct constitutes the sole means of air circulation comprised between the female structured region and the male structured region as far as the outside of the connector.
- the interlocking of the male end EM and the female end EF, and the creation of the leakage duct AC is permitted both by the insertion of the RSM and RSF regions but also by the cooperation of the shells male CM and female CF. That is to say that the male shell CM and female CF each have a 3D structure allowing the creation of the duct AC, and avoiding for example that a projecting portion of the region RSF is in contact with the region RSM, this which would block the AC duct.
- the connector of the invention therefore has an ingenious structure which makes it possible to easily separate the male portion and the female portion and which is suitable for use at atmospheric pressure and under high vacuum for a very long life (greater than 15 years). It is therefore particularly suitable for the production of satellites comprising an active antenna comprising a very large number of TWTs.
- FIG. 1D is a general graphical representation of the Paschen curve in air, i.e. the curve which specifies the breakdown voltage in air for a voltage between two electrodes separated by a distance d and for a pressure p .
- This figure will make it possible to explain the operation of the connector in the atmospheric pressure regime (region R1), in the depressurization regime (region R2) and under high vacuum (region R3).
- the distance d corresponds to the smallest distance in the air between the electrical contact CE and the outer male shell CM or between the electrical contact CE and the outer female shell CF.
- FIG. 1D On the figure 1D , by way of non-limiting example, is represented a horizontal straight line which corresponds to a predetermined operating voltage of the connector equal to 7 kV.
- the curve of the figure 1D illustrates that there is necessarily a range of p ⁇ d value of about [2.5 Torr. cm ; 10 2 Torr. cm] (region R2) for which a breakdown in air is obtained, for an operating voltage of 7 kV.
- portion R1 of the figure 1D air is an insulator with a breakdown voltage higher than the predetermined operating voltage.
- This regime corresponds to the desired operation of the connector 1 at atmospheric pressure.
- the male structured region is adapted so that a so-called male leakage line LM between the electrical contact and the male outer shell, passing through a surface of the leakage duct included in the block male dielectric, has a length greater than a predetermined dielectric breakdown distance and associated with the predetermined operating voltage of the connector, at atmospheric pressure.
- This predetermined dielectric breakdown distance corresponds to the maximum distance between two electrodes, passing through the surface of an insulator for which the path takes place between the two electrodes, for a given voltage and a given pressure. This dielectric breakdown distance is determined by standard rules (see for example paragraph 5.1.10 of ECSS-E-HB-20-05A).
- the female structured region is adapted so that a so-called female creepage line LF between the electrical contact CE and the shell external female CF passing through a surface of the leakage duct AC included in the female dielectric block DF has a length greater than the predetermined dielectric breakdown distance.
- the male creepage line and the female creepage line have a length greater than 1.2 cm, for a predetermined voltage of 7 kV in order to avoid the appearance of the tracking phenomenon.
- the condition concerning the length of the lines LM and LF necessarily makes it possible to avoid the appearance of breakdown in the air at this pressure between the electrical contact CE and the external male shell CM on the one hand and the shell external female CF on the other hand. Indeed, the breakdown in the air takes place for a voltage greater than the path (or a lower distance between two electrodes), so if the path is avoided, the breakdown in the air is avoided.
- the RSM male region and the RSF female region can have any shape without departing from the scope of the invention as long as the RSM male region is capable of being inserted into the RSF female region or vice versa, so to create the AC leakage duct.
- the male region RSM is structured so as to present slots in the plane (x,y) which are recessed relative to the rest of the dielectric block DM and the female region RSF is structured so as to present slots in the plane ( x,y) which protrude from the rest of the dielectric block DF.
- the female region RSF is structured so as to present crenellations in the plane ( x , y ) which are recessed with respect to the rest of the dielectric block DF and the male region RSM is structured so as to to present slots in the plane ( x , y ) which protrude with respect to the rest of the dielectric block DM.
- the female region RSF and the male region RSM have a structure in the plane ( x , y ) which has both recesses and projecting portions with respect to the rest of the dielectric block DF and DM respectively .
- the RSM and RSF regions are such that their section along the plane ( x , y ) presents structures which are not in the shape of rectangular or square slots but which are for example be in the shape of a triangle or any other known shape of skilled in the art, as long as the male region RSM is capable of being inserted into the female region RSF or vice versa, so as to create the leakage duct AC and allow electrical contact CE.
- the specific shape of the RF and RM reinforcements is not relevant to the invention as long as the male RSM region is able to fit into the female RSF region.
- the reinforcements RF and RM are in the form of a hollow cylinder with a square base, a circular base, or even a polygonal base.
- the male structured region RSM must not be in contact with the female structured region RSF failing to seal the leak conduit AC. This could prevent the high vacuum in connector 1 from being reached and/or could disrupt the protection of the connector against electrical breakdown.
- the number of openings and the size of the openings are adapted according to the volume of the leak conduit, so that it is possible to obtain a high vacuum in the leak conduit (or even a balance of pressures between the leakage duct and the outside of the connector) in a predetermined time.
- This predetermined time is defined by the user's specifications and by standards related to the field of use.
- the RSM region and the RSF region have a structuring making it possible to limit the peak effects linked to their volume.
- the RSM region and the RSF region are such that the edges of the leak channel are rounded.
- FIG. 2 schematically illustrates an enlargement of the CNE elementary connector of connector 1.
- the portion PAC of the AC leakage conduit is shown where the electrical contact CE is arranged.
- D the distance in a direction y perpendicular to x between the electrical contact CE and a surface of the portion of the leak duct PAC.
- the field lines LC associated with the electrical contact CE have been shown. These field lines of course depend on the geometry of the electrical contact and represent the direction of the vector reflecting the remote action undergone by an electrical charge. That is to say that an electron torn off at a given point of the contact CE will follow the direction of the field line LC associated with this point.
- the portion of the leak duct PAC extends in the direction x, as illustrated in the picture 2 , so that said portion is substantially perpendicular to the field lines LC associated with the contact CE which are in the direction y in the example of the picture 2 .
- This characteristic is particularly advantageous for making the connector 1 resistant to an accidental rise in pressure from the high vacuum.
- this arrangement of the conduit PAC makes it possible to artificially limit the mean free path of the electrons torn from the contact CE, thus preventing them from accelerating sufficiently between two collisions to ionize the gas and thus to create a breakdown, because the electrons thus torn will be "stopped” by the dielectric walls of the PAC portion of the conduit.
- the key parameter controlling the mean free path of the stripped electrons is the distance D between two opposite surfaces of the leakage duct.
- D is the thickness of the leak duct formed by the RSM and RSF regions.
- the smaller D the more the dielectric walls of the leakage duct are likely to limit the acceleration of the torn electrons.
- a rise in pressure which would be likely to cause the connector of the R3 region of the figure 1D to the R2 region and causing a breakdown does not harm the electrical operation of the connector. It is understood that this is true only for a relatively low pressure rise and dependent on the predetermined operating voltage. Even more preferentially, it is desirable for the connector to operate correctly for a rise in pressure of up to 1 Pa.
- the distance D is chosen to be sufficiently small so that there is no electrical breakdown in air at a pressure of 1 Pa within the leak pipe.
- the connector of the invention comprises a plurality of elementary connectors CNE, for example arranged so as to form a line or a matrix. This maximizes the number of signals transmitted by connector 1.
- FIG. 3 schematically illustrates an example of the embodiment MP in which the connector 1 comprises a first elementary connector CNE1 and a second elementary connector CNE2 aligned in the y direction, sharing the same AC leakage conduit.
- the connector 1 comprises a first elementary connector CNE1 and a second elementary connector CNE2 aligned in the y direction, sharing the same AC leakage conduit.
- a so-called male intercontact creepage line LIM between the electrical contact CE1 of the first elementary connector CNE1 and the electrical contact CE2 of the second elementary connector CNE2, passing through a surface of the leakage duct included in the male dielectric block has a length greater than the predetermined dielectric breakdown distance.
- a so-called female intercontact creepage line between the electrical contact of the first elementary connector and the electrical contact of the second elementary connector passing through a surface of the leakage conduit included in the female dielectric block has a length greater than the dielectric breakdown distance predetermined.
- FIG 4 schematically illustrates the connector 1 according to one embodiment of the invention, with the male portion M and the female portion F plugged.
- the outer male shell CM comprises 2 openings O placed on each of the small side faces of the shell CM.
- the connector of the figure 4 is simple, compact and makes it easy to separate the male portion from the female portion.
- the connector 1 typically has a dimension of 85x16x55mm.
