Abstract

A transport housing for a coil or a coil block, having an upper and a lower pressing plate, wherein the coil or the coil block is arranged between the two pressing plates and the latter can be braced against each other by a plurality of tension rods in the manner of an axial tension configuration. A frame enclosing the coil or the coil block to which a membrane, movable both toward the inner chamber of the transport housing and toward the outside, is fastened and having an outer housing which provides mechanical protection for the membrane and enables unhindered or allows movement of the membrane to the outside.

Claims (32)

1. A transport housing for a coil or a coil block, comprising:

an upper pressing plate and a lower pressing plate, configured for arrangement of a coil or coil block between the upper and lower pressing plates, and wherein the coil or coil block is clamped against the upper and lower pressing plates by a plurality of tie rods in an axial clamping configuration;

a frame for enclosing the coil or the coil block and having a membrane, wherein the membrane is movable both towards an interior of the transport housing and towards an outside of the housing, wherein the frame includes an outer frame and an inner frame, and the membrane is clamped between the outer frame and the inner frame; and

an outer housing, which provides mechanical protection for the membrane and allows movement of the membrane.

2. The transport housing of claim 1 , wherein edges of the outer frame and the inner frame are covered with an elastic structural component.

3. The transport housing of claim 2 , wherein the elastic structural component, which covers the edges of the outer frame and the inner frame, is made of rubber and has an L-section cross section.

4. The transport housing of claim 1 , wherein the outer housing is fixed to the frame.

5. The transport housing of claim 1 , in combination with a coil or coil block in contact with the axial clamping configuration via an upper block support and a lower block support.

6. The transport housing of claim 5 , comprising:

a radial support in an interior of the coil or the coil block.

7. The transport housing of claim 1 , comprising:

a desiccant in an interior of the transport housing.

8. The transport housing of claim 7 , wherein the desiccant is a silica gel bag, which is provided in the interior of the transport housing to absorb residual moisture in air in an interior of the transport housing.

9. The transport housing of claim 1 , comprising:

a coil or coil block housed within the transport housing.

10. A transport housing for a coil or a coil block, comprising:

an upper pressing plate and a lower pressing plate, configured for arrangement of a coil or coil block between the upper and lower pressing plates, and wherein the coil or coil block is clamped against the upper and lower pressing plates by a plurality of tie rods in an axial clamping configuration;

a frame for enclosing the coil or the coil block and having a membrane, wherein the membrane is movable both towards an interior of the transport housing and towards an outside of the housing, wherein the frame includes an outer frame and an inner frame, and the membrane is fixed between the outer frame and the inner frame; and

an outer housing, which provides mechanical protection for the membrane and allows movement of the membrane.

11. A transport housing for a coil or a coil block, comprising:

an upper pressing plate and a lower pressing plate, configured for arrangement of a coil or coil block between the upper and lower pressing plates, and wherein the coil or coil block is clamped against the upper and lower pressing plates by a plurality of tie rods in an axial clamping configuration;

a frame for enclosing the coil or the coil block and having a membrane, wherein the membrane is movable both towards an interior of the transport housing and towards an outside of the housing, and wherein the frame includes an outer frame and an inner frame, and the membrane is clamped between the outer frame and the inner frame;

an outer housing, which provides mechanical protection for the membrane and allows movement of the membrane; and

wherein the coil or coil block is in contact with the axial clamping configuration via an upper block support and a lower block support.

12. The transport housing of claim 11 , wherein edges of the outer frame and the inner frame are covered with an elastic structural component.

13. The transport housing of claim 12 , wherein the elastic structural component, which covers the edges of the outer frame and the inner frame, is made of rubber and has an L-section cross section.

14. The transport housing of claim 11 , wherein the outer housing is fixed to the frame.

15. The transport housing of claim 11 , comprising:

a radial support in an interior of the coil or the coil block.

16. The transport housing of claim 11 , comprising:

a desiccant in an interior of the transport housing.

17. The transport housing of claim 16 , wherein the desiccant is a silica gel bag, which is provided in the interior of the transport housing to absorb the residual moisture in the air in the interior of the transport housing.
