HIGH-VOLTAGE CONNECTOR Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: high-voltage equipment. SUBSTANCE: high-voltage connector has two contact systems each incorporating jack and dielectric shroud with pin connector in between whose conductor is essentially stiff metal rod with plugs at ends, dielectric sleeve in the form of connecting pipe, threaded at its ends and having cylindrical projection between them; connector is also provided with flexible insulating sealing member, cylindrical in its center and in the form of truncated cones at ends. Greater bases of cones face each other and inner surface of projection in sleeve has annular slot. Snap ring is placed in slot; slip friction coefficient between snap ring and sealing member is greater than ring-to-sleeve friction coefficient. EFFECT: improved design. 2 dwg
