Abstract

Abstract In a high-voltage transformer of particularly small size comprising a magnetic circuit and a coil shell on which is wound a secondary winding consisting of one or a number of separate secondary coils, each secondary coil is contained within a channel closed by an insulating ring made up of two segments. The two ring segments are assembled around the channel in a movement performed in the same plane as that of the channel.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 175 words
A high-voltage transformer of the type supplied by a converter and comprising a magnetic circuit, a primary winding, a coil shell placed about a longitudinal axis of the magnetic circuit, a high-voltage secondary winding wound around the coil shell, said primary winding being surrounded by the high-voltage secondary winding, the secondary winding being constituted by at least two separate secondary coils, each of said secondary coils being contained within a separate channel formed in the coil shell in a plane substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, the two channels being disposed successively along the longitudinal axis, wherein each of the channels containing a secondary coil is closed by an insulating ring formed by the assembly of at least two segments, the ends of said ring segments being disposed in interengaged relation on the one hand in order to form a labyrinth seal at the joints of said ring segments and on the other hand in order to assemble the ring segments by displacing said segments in substantially the same plane as that of the channel.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 175 words
A high-voltage transformer of the type supplied by a converter and comprising a magnetic circuit, a primary winding, a coil shell placed about a longitudinal axis of the magnetic circuit, a high-voltage secondary winding wound around the coil shell, said primary winding being surrounded by the high-voltage secondary winding, the secondary winding being constituted by at least two separate secondary coils, each of said secondary coils being contained within a separate channel formed in the coil shell in a plane substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, the two channels being disposed successively along the longitudinal axis, wherein each of the channels containing a secondary coil is closed by an insulating ring formed by the assembly of at least two segments, the ends of said ring segments being disposed in interengaged relation on the one hand in order to form a labyrinth seal at the joints of said ring segments and on the other hand in order to assemble the ring segments by displacing said segments in substantially the same plane as that of the channel.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 34 words
A transformer according to claim 1, wherein the movement involved in the assembly of ring segments takes place solely along an assembly axis which is contained in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 37 words
A transformer according to claim 1, wherein the insulating ring is provided on the external surface thereof with two diametrically opposite flat portions each intended to be located opposite to one external leg of the magnetic circuit.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 42 words
A transformer according to claim 3, wherein the flat portions are centered on a positioning axis inclined at an angle smaller than 90° with respect to a radial axis which passes through the longitudinal axis and the ends of the ring segments.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 44 words
A transformer according to claim 1, wherein at least one secondary coil has a trapezoidal shape and wherein layers of wires constituting the secondary coil from the base to the top side thereof are separated by layers of insulating material having a constant width.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 48 words
A transformer according to claim 5, wherein at least one insulating ring is provided on the bottom face thereof with projecting portions which penetrate into the channel in order to subject the projecting ends of the insulating layers to a downward displacement towards the bottom of the channel.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 20 words
A transformer according to claim 5, wherein the top side of the secondary winding is oriented towards the insulating ring.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 13 words
A transformer according to claim 1, wherein the coil shell is of polypropylene.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 15 words
A transformer according to claim 1, wherein at least one insulating ring is of polypropylene.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 36 words
A transformer according to claim 1, wherein the magnetic circuit is divided into two portions along a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, said two portions being assembled in juxtaposed relation after mounting the coil shell.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 17 words
A transformer according to claim 1, wherein the coil shell is common to all the secondary coils.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 13 words
A transformer according to claim 1, wherein the two ring segments are interchangeable.
