TECHNIQUE FOR ELECTRICALLY CONNECTING A GENERATOR AND AN EXCITER

摘要

A connection device includes a body having a first and a second end, a first connector set at the first end, and a pin type connector set at the second end. The first connector set includes a first strip element and a second strip element, which form an electrical interface of the connection device. The pin type connector set includes a first element and a second element, and thus forms another electrical interface of the connection device, different from the electrical interface formed by the first connector set. The pin type connector may be projecting pins or hollows that receive pins. The first connector set is electrically connected to the pin type connector set. Thus, the connection device is adapted for electrically connecting a generator with an exciter having incompatible electrical interfaces.

主权项

1. A connection device for electrically connecting a generator and an exciter, the connection device comprising:
a body comprising a first end and a second end spaced apart along an axis of the elongate body, the body having a first surface at the first end thereof; a first connector set positioned at the first end of the body, the first connector set comprising at least a first strip element and a second strip element, wherein each of the strip elements is electrically conducting and comprises a first segment extending toward the second end of the body and being at least partially embedded in the body, and a second segment arranged at an angle to the first segment and extending over the first surface of the body at the first end, wherein the first segment and the second segment of each strip element are electrically connected; a pin type connector set positioned at the second end of the body, wherein the pin type connector set comprises at least a first element and a second element, wherein each of the first element and the second element is electrically conducting; and wherein the first strip element of the first connector set is electrically connected to the first element of the pin type connector set and the second strip element of the first connector set is electrically connected to the second element of the pin type connector set.
