Abstract

Abstract A condenser block comprising a stack of insulating layers, separated by metal plates, arranged in relation to one another in such a way that at least part of each metal plate is approximately opposite at least part of another plate, in the direction of stacking, these metal plates forming the condenser plates. In this invention, one metal plate, positioned between any pair of insulating layers, and opposite a second metal plate, placed above the first such plate, between a second pair of insulating layers, faces a third metal plate, also placed above the first plate, between a different pair of insulating layers from the second such pair.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 126 words
A condenser block comprising a stack of insulating layers, separated by metal plates, arranged in relation to one another in such a way that at least part of each such plate is approximately opposite at least part of another such plate, in the direction of stacking, the said metal plates forming the condenser plates and the said block being characterized by the fact that one metal plate, positioned between one pair of insulating layers, and opposite part of a second metal plate, placed above the first plate, between a second pair of insulating layers, is also opposite part of a third metal plate, between a third pair of insulating layers, and that the second and third pairs have not more than one insulating layer in common.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 126 words
A condenser block comprising a stack of insulating layers, separated by metal plates, arranged in relation to one another in such a way that at least part of each such plate is approximately opposite at least part of another such plate, in the direction of stacking, the said metal plates forming the condenser plates and the said block being characterized by the fact that one metal plate, positioned between one pair of insulating layers, and opposite part of a second metal plate, placed above the first plate, between a second pair of insulating layers, is also opposite part of a third metal plate, between a third pair of insulating layers, and that the second and third pairs have not more than one insulating layer in common.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 60 words
A condenser block as defined in claim 1, comprising a number of basic modules, each of which contains n metal plates, n being not fewer than 3, offset in relation to one another, and successively opposite one another, plate n being separated from plate (n-1) by (n-1) insulating layers, of which (n-2) layers are placed between plates (n-1) and (n-2).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 69 words
A condenser block as defined in either claim 1 or 2, comprising a number of basic modules, each of which contains three metal plates, offset in relation to one another, and successively opposite one another, the second plate being separated from the first plate by one insulating layer, and the third plate being separated from the first plate by two insulating layers, one of which is the preceding layer.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 89 words
A condenser block as defined in either claim 1 or 2, comprising a number of basic modules, each of which contains four metal plates, offset in relation to one another, and successively opposite one another, the first plate being separated from the second plate by one insulating layer, the third plate being separated from the second plate by two insulating layers, one of which is the preceding layer, and the fourth plate being separated from the third plate by three insulating layers, two of which are these preceding layers.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 17 words
A voltage multiplier comprising a condenser block as defined in any one of claims 1 or 2.
