Abstract: An improved choke assembly for a power electronics device is provided. More specifically, a choke assembly with improved protection from environmental conditions such as dirt and water is provided. An improved choke assembly may include an insulative housing for an inductor coil that seals the inductor coil from the environment.

Abstract: A pulse transformer arrangement (100) is built from an uncut pulse transformer core (110) and at least one foil winding (120-A, 120-B) (each) comprising multiple insulated conducting strips arranged around the core and ending in foil winding terminals to form multiple independent primary windings. This new design principle has several advantages. Making the winding(s) of foil eliminates the need to cut the core, because of the ease of insertion of the foil winding(s) onto the core. The work to set up a plurality of primary windings is significantly reduced. In addition to the elimination of the costs for cutting the core, this also brings the further advantages of reduced DC reset current, reduced risk for electrical shorts and avoidance of excessive losses due to potential high frequency AC resistance problems.

Abstract: An electrical induction device for high voltage applications, of the type comprising a magnetic core which has at least one leg and is operatively coupled to a supporting structure, at least one inner winding which is arranged around said leg and has a first rated voltage, at least one outer winding which is arranged around said at least one inner winding and has a second rated voltage; and electrically insulating means, wherein said at least one inner winding comprises a plurality of substantially concentric turns formed by a sheet of electrically conducting material which is spirally wound, and in that said electrically insulating means comprise at least one layer of electrically insulating material which is arranged between mutually facing surfaces of said concentric turns, and first shaped insulating means which edge, at least partially, at least one of the upper and lower external rims of said inner winding.
