Abstract
A high voltage electrical swivel includes a first part and a second part, which are mobile relative to each other and form a closed internal chamber, each of the two parts including at least one electrical connector; and at least one electrical track electrically linked to a connector of one of the two parts and at least one brush assembly electrically linked to a connector of the other of the two parts, the at least one brush assembly cooperating with the at least one electrical track to establish an electrical contact, the at least one electrical track and the at least one brush assembly being housed in the closed internal chamber. The closed internal chamber is filled with a dielectric insulating gas having a dielectric strength greater than that of the air surrounding the electrical swivel.
Claims20
A high-voltage electrical swivel (200) comprising:
- a first part and a second part (210, 250), which are mobile relative to each other and form a closed internal chamber (202), each of the two parts comprising at least one electrical connector (212, 252);
- at least one electrical track (224) electrically linked to a connector of one of the two parts and at least one brush assembly (266) electrically linked to a connector of the other of the two parts, the at least one brush assembly cooperating with the at least one electrical track to establish an electrical contact, the at least one electrical track and the at least one brush assembly being housed in the closed internal chamber;
- the closed internal chamber (202) being filled with a dielectric insulating gas having a dielectric strength greater than that of the air surrounding the electrical swivel.
