Abstract: A rotor for a thermal turbomachine, in particular a gas turbine, designed to conduct a medium, such as compressor air, in the interior of the rotor. In order to conduct the medium in the interior with low flow losses and at the same time to specify a rotor that can be produced comparatively simply and economically, a separately produced blade wheel is arranged between the mutually adjacent hub regions of the two rotor disks, and a sleeve is provided for fastening the blade wheel to one of the two rotor disks, which sleeve extends through the central opening of the one rotor disk and includes a collar serving as a stop at a first end of the sleeve and includes a second end opposite the first end, on which second end the blade wheel is fastened.

Abstract: A surge arrester includes at least one resistor element and a cage in which the at least one resistor element is disposed. The cage includes an upper holder, a lower holder and at least three insulating rods, which are each held at one respective rod end thereof by the upper holder and at the other respective rod end thereof by the lower holder. The upper holder and the lower holder are configured in such a way that they each enable at least two different positions for at least one of the insulating rods, relative to the two holders, and the at least one insulating rod can be positioned differently relative to the two holders.

Abstract: A surge arrester has a tube-shaped housing, an end fitting connected to an end of the housing, a varistor block arranged in the housing and a supporting element arranged in the region of the end fitting. The supporting element has a supporting ring which is in contact with the housing and which includes a cone and a clamping ring with a counter-cone that corresponds to the cone. The cone is braced to the counter-cone in such a manner that the supporting ring is pressed to the housing in a non-displaceable manner. The supporting element can thus also be used after the installation of the varistor block and also be removed.

Abstract: A surge arrester has a collar for fixing tensioning elements. The collar is extendable and is capable of absorbing released energy in the event of a fault and holding together the cage containing the tensioning elements. The collar, which fixes the tensioning elements in the radial direction, is positioned around the cage of the surge arrester formed from the tensioning elements. The form of the collar is such that it has defined deformation regions, with the result that the collar can expand and thus widen in the event of a force effect in the radial direction. If the varistor elements expand in the manner of an explosion during an overload, the collar is expanded and absorbs some of the released energy. This ensures that the cage is held together in the event of an overload and thus no fragments of the varistor elements can be flung out of the cage.
