Power sensor for a current carrying conductor
A power sensor is disclosed for a current carrying conductor. In at least one embodiment, the sensor includes at least one ferromagnetic core, a secondary winding, and at least one of connecting elements for a load or a load. The secondary winding is designed as an injection molded part on an insulating layer that is injection molded onto the ferromagnetic core.
1. A power sensor for a current-carrying conductor, comprising:
at least two ferromagnetic cores;
a secondary winding including a first and second portion, each portion embodied as an injection molded part on an insulating layer injection molded onto a respective one of the at least two ferromagnetic cores;
two half-shells, each including at least one of the at least two ferromagnetic cores and either the first or the second portion of the secondary winding, the portions of the secondary winding of the two half-shells being physically connected via a connecting part embodied as an injection molded part.
2. The power sensor as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising an insulating layer embodied as an injection molded part as a cover for the secondary winding.
3. The power sensor as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the two half-shells are electrically connected to each other via a connecting part embodied as an injection molded part.
4. The power sensor as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the connecting part is embodied as a film hinge.
5. The power sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the two half-shells are electrically connected to each other via a connecting part embodied as an injection molded part.
6. The power sensor as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the connecting part is embodied as a film hinge.
7. The power sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting part is embodied as a film hinge.
8. The power sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least two ferromagnetic cores are embodied as a molded part.
9. The power sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least two ferromagnetic cores are embodied as an injection molded part.
10. The power sensor as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the at least two ferromagnetic cores are embodied as an injection molded part in thermoplastic material filled with magnetic powder.
11. The power sensor as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:
at least one of integrated connecting elements and connecting elements for the half-shells.
12. The power sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the load is embodied as a conductive plastic string.
13. The power sensor as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising at least one of a load and connecting elements for the load.
14. The power sensor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connecting part includes a segment of the secondary winding.
15. A power sensor for a current-carrying conductor, comprising:
at least one ferromagnetic core;
a secondary winding embodied as an injection molded part on an insulating layer injection molded onto the at least one ferromagnetic core; and
at least one of a load and connecting elements for the load,
wherein the load is embodied as a conductive plastic string, at least one area which contains or surrounds the load, wherein the power sensor is embodied to move the at least one area by way of a current-dependent change in volume of an electrically conductive part of the sensor.
16. The power sensor as claimed in claim 15 , where the movement is embodied to release a pre-tensioned mechanism.
17. The power sensor as claimed in claim 15 , wherein the power sensor further comprises two half-shells, each including at least one ferromagnetic core.
