Contact Device For High-Current Transfer
A connector that includes a contact, a connection piece, and a cooling unit. The connection piece is received by the contact, and the cooling unit is connected to the connection piece. The cooling unit includes a heat sink spaced from the contact, a first heat exchanger section between the contact and the connection piece, a second heat exchanger section positioned in the heat sink and in communication with the first heat exchanger section, and a heat transfer medium that circulates between the first heat exchanger section and the second heat exchanger section.
ELECTRICAL CONTACTOR AND PANEL ASSEMBLIES
An electrical contactor assembly includes an electrical contactor, a post in electrical communication with the electrical contactor, an insulator body, and a heat sink. The insulator body is in intimate mechanical contact with the post. The heat sink is in intimate mechanical contact with the insulator body and is in thermal communication with the electrical contactor through the post and the insulator body such that heat flowing between contactor and the heat sink flows through the post and the insulator body.
Cooling Apparatus for a Medium Voltage or High Voltage Switchgear
A cooling apparatus for a medium voltage switchgear includes an evaporator section; a fluid conduit; and a condenser section. The evaporator section surrounds a current carrying contact and is configured such that fluid within the evaporator section can contact an outer surface of the current carrying contact. The evaporator section is fluidly connected to the fluid conduit. At least part of the evaporator section is electrically insulating and is connected to the fluid conduit. The fluid conduit is fluidly connected to the condenser section. In use, a working fluid in the evaporator section is heated to a vapor state, the vapor is transferred by the fluid conduit to the condenser section, and the vapor in the condenser section is condensed to the working fluid. The working fluid is passively returned to the evaporator section.
Relay
A relay includes a housing, a fixed terminal, a screw receiving member, and at least one female screw member. The fixed terminal has a plate shape. The fixed terminal includes a fastening portion having at least one screw insertion hole. The fastening portion is exposed from the housing to an outside and is screwed to an external terminal. The screw receiving member overlaps with the fastening portion in a penetrating direction of the at least one screw insertion hole and is provided in proximity to the fastening portion. The at least one female screw member is provided integrally with or separately from the screw receiving member and is prevented from rotating by the screw receiving member.
Electrical assembly
An electrical assembly may include a first contactor, a second contactor, a bus bar assembly electrically connected to the first contactor and the second contactor, a cooling member, a bracket configured to connect the cooling member to the first contactor and the second contactor, and/or potting material that may be disposed at least partially between the bus bar assembly and the cooling member. A method of assembling an electrical assembly may include disposing the first contactor and the second contactor on a fixture, connecting the bus bar assembly to the first contactor and the second contactor, connecting the bracket to the bus bar assembly, the first contactor, and/or the second contactor, connecting the cooling member to the bracket, and/or providing the potting material between the bus bar assembly and the cooling member.
CIRCUIT STRUCTURE
Provided is a circuit structure with a new structure that can improve a heat dissipation efficiency of a heat generating component while having resistance to a reaction force of a thermally conductive member. Provided is a circuit structure including: a heat generating component; bus bars that are connected to connection portions of the heat-generating component; cases that accommodate the heat-generating component and the bus bars; an elastic thermally conductive member that comes into thermal contact with the bus bars; a pressing portion that is provided on the cases and brings the bus bars into contact with the thermally conductive member; and a reinforcing wall portion that protrudes outside of the cases and reinforces the pressing portion.
CIRCUIT ASSEMBLY
The present disclosure provides a circuit assembly that has a novel structure, with which it is possible to prevent the occurrence of a problem caused by an excessive repulsive force of a heat conductive member by controlling the repulsive force of the heat conductive member. A circuit assembly includes: a heat generation component; bus bars that are connected to connecting portions of the heat generation component; an insulating base member that holds the heat generation component and the bus bars; and an elastic heat conductive member that is in thermal contact with the bus bars. The bus bars press the heat conductive member in a mounting direction in which the bus bars are mounted on the base member. As a result of the bus bars abutting against bus bar positioning portions provided on the base member, the positions of the bus bars in the mounting direction are defined.
Three-Position Disconnector Switch
A three-position disconnector switch includes an earthing contact, a power out contact, a power in contact, and a piston. The power out contact comprises first and second parts connected by a leg portion. In a first position, the piston contacts the first part of the power out contact.
