  • Patent number: 11626242
    Abstract: A winding assembly for a transformer, in particular with a medium operating voltage of Um?79.5 kV, wherein the winding assembly includes at least one winding, which ends in a winding conductor, where the winding conductor is connected to a switching line, which is configured to interconnect the winding to other windings, and where the connection of the switching line to the winding conductor is arranged inside the winding so as to reduce the danger of partial discharges and flashovers in the high-voltage end-line region for high-temperature applications.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: December 6, 2018
    Date of Patent: April 11, 2023
    Assignee: SIEMENS ENERGY GLOBAL GMBH & CO. KG
    Inventors: Jürgen Gangel, Hans Jürgen Wagner
  • Patent number: 11506187
    Abstract: An assembly includes a transformer tank that is arranged in a nacelle of a wind turbine, wherein the transformer tank is configured to be filled with a gas or a liquid to cool the active part of the transformer and the active part is enclosed by the transformer tank in a liquid-tight or gas-tight manner, such that use of the transformer tank as a reinforcement or a bracing of the steel construction of the nacelle with as little additional material expenditure as possible for the transformer is facilitated by integrating the transformer tank into the mechanical support structure of the nacelle such that the transformer tank forms a part of the mechanical support structure of the nacelle and by providing at least one bracing in the interior of the transformer tank, where bracing connects mutually opposing wall regions of the transformer tank.
