  • Patent number: 7832079
    Abstract: The invention relates to a vacuum interrupter chamber and a method for producing the same according to the preambles of patent claims 1 and 3. In order here to improve a vacuum interrupter chamber of this type and a method for producing the same and the subsequent casting to the extent that the advantages described above are utilized but the disadvantages described are avoided, it is proposed according to the invention that, in preparation for later casting, the vacuum interrupter chamber (1) is provided on the outer surface with a protective sheath (2) consisting of an elastic or elastomeric or plastomeric material, which is applied to the surface of the vacuum interrupter chamber without further expanding mechanical aids by heat shrinkage alone.
