Abstract

555,116. Current rectifiers. AKT.-GES, BROWN, BOVERI, & CIE. Oct. 2, 1940. No 14809. Convention date, Aug. 22, 1939. [Class 39 (i)] In an anode assembly for gas or vapour hightension current rectifiers, of the kind comprising a stem or rod 3 carrying the anode 4 and secured to the top of a hollow insulator 2 mounted on the outside of the metallic rectifier casing 1, a series of overlapping cylindrical shields 7 of increasing diameter downwardly from shield to shield is provided, the radial distances between the shields and the amounts of their overlap being so selected that charge carriers do not pass between them to the insulator, and a field having an approximately uniform voltage drop over the insulator is formed. As shown, the insulator is of conical form and provided with internal flanges to which the shields are secured. The lowermost shield is secured to an arc-guiding sleeve 8 surrounding the anode. Preferably heating means for preventing condensation is arranged either on the outside of the insulator, or is provided by so dimensioning The stem 3 that the power losses in it produce the desired heating.
