Abstract

A high-voltage bushing contains an insulating body that is arranged concentrically around a cylindrical winding support formed of an electrically-conductive material, conductive control inlays which capacitive potential control the high-voltage bushing and are spaced apart from one another by insulation layers, and are arranged concentrically with the winding support. A connection device is provided for establishing an electrical connection between a first control inlay closest to the winding support, and the winding support. The high-voltage bushing is characterized in that the connection device contains an electrical sliding contact.

Claims (17)

1. A high-voltage bushing, comprising:

a cylindrical winding support formed of an electrically conductive material;

an insulating body disposed concentrically around said cylindrical winding support; insulation layers;

conductive control inserts for capacitive potential control of the high-voltage bushing, said conductive control inserts being mutually spaced by means of said insulation layers and said conductive control inserts disposed concentrically to said cylindrical winding support, said conductive control inserts include a first control insert and a second control insert; and

a connection device for formation of an electrical connection between said first control insert being closest to said cylindrical winding support, and said cylindrical winding support, said connection device having a sliding electrical contact, said sliding electrical contact having a first contact piece electrically connected to said first control insert, said first contact piece having a first step; and

a retaining ring securing said first contact piece to said insulating body, said retaining ring having a retaining ring step cooperating with said first step for retention of said first contact piece on said insulating body.

2. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 1 , wherein said sliding electrical contact has a second contact piece which is electrically connected to said cylindrical winding support and disposed for moving together with said cylindrical winding support.

3. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 2 , wherein:

said cylindrical winding support has a circumferential groove formed therein; and

said second contact piece is a contact spring configuration, which is disposed in said circumferential groove in said cylindrical winding support.

4. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 3 , wherein said contact spring configuration is a helical spring.

5. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 1 , wherein said first contact piece is a metal ring which is disposed circumferentially between said cylindrical winding support and said insulating body.

6. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 5 , wherein said metal ring is a brass ring.

7. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 1 , wherein said retaining ring contains a resin.

8. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 1 , wherein said cylindrical winding support is a conductor.

9. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 1 , wherein said insulating body is impregnated with a resin.

10. The high-voltage bushing according to claim 1 , further comprising a mounting flange for fitting of the high-voltage bushing and is secured to an exterior of said insulating body.
