  • Electricity transmission device at high current and high frequency
    Patent number: 8119908
    Abstract: The electricity transmission device comprises prolonged rigid conductors made of copper, and also a connector comprising a network of flexible elements, such as brazed tubes with cooling channels for the conductors, that enables angular displacements between the successive segments and therefore gives a flexibility absorbing small displacements of the device. A lifting manoeuvre system is associated with the segments. The segments may be joined to other elements of the device through connections with jaws enabling slipping.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 9, 2007
    Date of Patent: February 21, 2012
    Assignees: Areva NC, Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique
    Inventors: Jacques Lacombe, Patrice Brun, Thierry Flament, Eric Chauvin, Antony Prod'Homme
  • ELECTRICITY TRANSMISSION DEVICE AT HIGH CURRENT AND HIGH FREQUENCY
    Publication number: 20110056719
    Abstract: The electricity transmission device comprises prolonged rigid conductors made of copper (18), and also a connector (17) comprising a network of flexible elements (23), such as brazed tubes with cooling channels (20, 22) for the conductors (18), that enables angular displacements between the successive segments (15, 16) and therefore gives a flexibility absorbing small displacements of the device. A lifting manoeuvre system (26, 27) is associated with the segments (15, 16). The segments (15, 16) may be joined to other elements of the device through connections with jaws enabling slipping.
