Abstract

An electric device, for example a track transformer, connects to a high-voltage line. The electric device has a magnetizable core, at least one winding which is arranged in the vicinity of the core, and a housing which is filled with an insulating fluid and in which at least one winding is arranged. The core is arranged at least partly outside of the housing. In order to allow a stable mounting of a core formed of two halves, the core is arranged completely between two opposing pressing plates, between which tension elements for clamping the core extend.

Claims (25)

1. An electric device for connection to a high-voltage line, the electric device comprising:

a magnetizable core;

at least one winding disposed in a vicinity of said magnetizable core;

a housing filled with an insulating fluid and in which said at least one winding is disposed, wherein said magnetizable core is disposed at least partly outside said housing;

tension elements; and

two pressing plates, said magnetizable core is disposed completely between said two pressing plates which are situated opposite one another and between which said tension elements for clamping said magnetizable core extend.

2. The electric device according to claim 1 , wherein said magnetizable core has a lower yoke, an upper yoke and core limbs which are connected to one another by means of said lower yoke and said upper yoke, wherein said upper yoke is supported at an end side against an upper pressing plate of said two pressing plates and said lower yoke is supported at an end side against a lower pressing plate of said two pressing plates.

3. An electric device for connection to a high-voltage line, the electric device comprising:

a magnetizable core having a yoke; and

at least one winding disposed in a vicinity of said magnetizable core;

a housing filled with an insulating fluid and in which said at least one winding is disposed, wherein said magnetizable core is disposed at least partly outside said housing;

tension elements; and

two pressing plates, said magnetizable core is disposed completely between said two pressing plates which are situated opposite one another and between which said tension elements for clamping said magnetizable core extend, at least one of said two pressing plates having a recess formed therein for receiving said yoke of said magnetizable core.

4. The electric device according to claim 1 , wherein:

said at least one winding is one of at least two windings; and

said magnetizable core has two core limbs which are disposed parallel to one another, wherein each of said core limbs is enclosed by said at least two windings.

5. The electric device according to claim 4 , wherein said at least one winding is disposed in said housing and is clamped by means of said tension elements.

6. The electric device according to claim 5 , wherein:

said housing has two housing cover plates; and

said at least one winding is disposed between said two housing cover plates of said housing, wherein said housing cover plates are clamped to one another by means of said tension elements.

7. The electric device according to claim 1 , wherein said tension elements are threaded rods, cables, solid bars, pipes or networks of cables.

8. The electric device according to claim 1 , wherein said tension elements and/or said two pressing plates are formed from an electrically non-conductive material.

9. The electric device according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of said two pressing plates is formed from a plurality of parts.

10. The electric device according to claim 1 , wherein said magnetizable core has two core halves which bear against one another or delimit an air gap with an aid of spacers.

11. The electric device according to claim 1 , wherein said magnetizable core is a winding strip core.
