Electrical feed-through for hermetic compressors
View Patent ↗An electrical feed-through includes an electrically conductive connection pin and an elastic insulation member coupled to the connection pin by vulcanizing the insulation member, wherein the coupled connection pin and insulation member are arranged in an opening of a casing and pressure-tightly clamped in the opening by a fastening element.
1. An electrical feed-through comprising:
an electrically conductive connection pin; and
an elastic insulation member coupled to the connection pin, wherein the coupled connection pin and insulation member are arranged in an opening of a casing of a compressor and pressure-tightly clamped in the opening by a fastening element; wherein the insulation member includes a protrusion circumferentially formed around at least a portion of the insulation member, the protrusion received in a groove formed in the casing of the compressor.
2. The electrical feed-through according to claim 1 , wherein the insulation member is coupled to the connection pin by vulcanizing the insulation member.
3. The electrical feed-through according to claim 1 , further comprising a sleeve disposed adjacent the insulation member for axially supporting the insulation member.
4. The electrical feed-through according to claim 1 , wherein the insulation member includes a hose-shaped extension disposed around a portion of the connection pin.
5. The electrical feed-through according to claim 1 , wherein a portion of the connection pin is disposed within an interior of the casing and wherein a hose-shaped extension of the insulation member is disposed around at least a part of the portion of the connection pin disposed within the interior of the casing.
6. The electrical feed-through according to claim 1 , wherein the insulation member is formed from epoxidized ethylene propylene diene monomer rubber (eEPDM).
7. The electrical feed-through according to claim 1 , wherein the insulation member is formed from hydrated acrylonitrile butadiene rubber (HNBR).
8. The electrical feed-through according to claim 1 , wherein the insulation member is formed from silicone rubber.
9. The electrical feed-through according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening element is a circlip.
10. An electrical feed-through comprising:
a plurality of electrically conductive connection pins; and
an elastic insulation member coupled to at least a portion of each of the connection pins by vulcanizing the insulation member, wherein the coupled connection pin and insulation member are arranged in an opening of a casing and pressure-tightly clamped in the opening by a fastening element; wherein the insulation member includes a protrusion circumferentially formed around at least a portion of the insulation member, the protrusion received in a groove formed in the casing.
11. The electrical feed-through according to claim 10 , further comprising a sleeve disposed adjacent the insulation member for axially supporting the insulation member.
12. The electrical feed-through according to claim 10 , wherein a portion of at least one of the connection pins is disposed within an interior of the casing and wherein a hose-shaped extension of the insulation member is disposed around at least a part of the portion of the at least one of the connection pins disposed within the interior of the casing.
13. An electrical feed-through comprising:
an electrically conductive connection pin; and
an elastic insulation member coupled to the connection pin, wherein the coupled connection pin and insulation member are arranged in an opening of a casing and pressure-tightly clamped in the opening by a fastening element, the elastic insulation member including a hose-shaped extension extending axially from the insulation member with respect to the connection pin and a protrusion circumferentially formed around at least a portion of the insulation member.
14. The electrical feed-through according to claim 13 , wherein the casing of the compressor includes a groove for receiving the protrusion formed on the insulation member.
15. The electrical feed-through according to claim 13 , further comprising a sleeve disposed adjacent the insulation member for axially supporting the insulation member.
16. The electrical feed-through according to claim 13 , wherein a portion of the connection pin is disposed within an interior of the casing and wherein a hose-shaped extension of the insulation member is disposed around at least a part of the portion of the connection pin disposed within the interior of the casing.
17. An electrical feed-through comprising:
an electrically conductive connection pin;
an elastic insulation member coupled to the connection pin, wherein the coupled connection pin and insulation member are arranged in an opening of a casing of a compressor and pressure-tightly clamped in the opening by a fastening element; and
a sleeve disposed adjacent the insulation member for axially supporting the insulation member.
18. An electrical feed-through comprising:
an electrically conductive connection pin; and
an elastic insulation member coupled to the connection pin, wherein the coupled connection pin and insulation member are arranged in an opening of a casing of a compressor and pressure-tightly clamped in the opening by a fastening element, wherein the insulation member includes a hose-shaped extension disposed around a portion of the connection pin.
