20100321850 | ARRANGEMENT COMPRISING A SURGE ARRESTER - A configuration includes a surge arrester. The surge arrester includes first and second connecting terminals. At least one connecting terminal is connected to an electrically conductive connecting path to contact the surge arrester. The connecting path is mounted in a universally jointed manner. | 12-23-2010 |
20130222964 | SURGE ARRESTER WITH EXTENDABLE COLLAR - A surge arrester has a collar for fixing tensioning elements. The collar is extendable and is capable of absorbing released energy in the event of a fault and holding together the cage containing the tensioning elements. The collar, which fixes the tensioning elements in the radial direction, is positioned around the cage of the surge arrester formed from the tensioning elements. The form of the collar is such that it has defined deformation regions, with the result that the collar can expand and thus widen in the event of a force effect in the radial direction. If the varistor elements expand in the manner of an explosion during an overload, the collar is expanded and absorbs some of the released energy. This ensures that the cage is held together in the event of an overload and thus no fragments of the varistor elements can be flung out of the cage. | 08-29-2013 |
20140133060 | SURGE ARRESTER - A surge arrester includes at least one resistor element and a cage in which the at least one resistor element is disposed. The cage includes an upper holder, a lower holder and at least three insulating rods, which are each held at one respective rod end thereof by the upper holder and at the other respective rod end thereof by the lower holder. The upper holder and the lower holder are configured in such a way that they each enable at least two different positions for at least one of the insulating rods, relative to the two holders, and the at least one insulating rod can be positioned differently relative to the two holders. | 05-15-2014 |
20140368962 | SURGE ARRESTER - A surge arrester has a tube-shaped housing, an end fitting connected to an end of the housing, a varistor block arranged in the housing and a supporting element arranged in the region of the end fitting. The supporting element has a supporting ring which is in contact with the housing and which includes a cone and a clamping ring with a counter-cone that corresponds to the cone. The cone is braced to the counter-cone in such a manner that the supporting ring is pressed to the housing in a non-displaceable manner. The supporting element can thus also be used after the installation of the varistor block and also be removed. | 12-18-2014 |
20150213925 | SURGE ARRESTER COMPRISING TRACTION ELEMENTS MAINTAINED BY LOOPS - A surge arrester has several tensioning elements which brace the discharge column in the axial direction. One or more loop arrangements radially surround the tensioning elements. One loop arrangement has a plurality of loops.

20150223368 | VALVE DIVERTER WITH HEAT SINK - A valve-type arrester includes a heat sink for dissipating heat from the interior of the valve-type arrester into the surroundings of the valve-type arrester. The heat sink has a circular-cylindrical main body with a base surface, a top surface parallel to the base surface and a casing surface connecting the base surface and the top surface. The heat sink additionally has a plurality of fins disposed on the main body, in which each fin is formed in the shape of a sheet or a leaf and disposed on the casing surface of the main body. | 08-06-2015 |
20150244162 | Surge arrester - A surge arrester, in particular for arresting surges, includes a housing and a disconnecting device. The housing is divided into at least two housing parts, and the disconnecting device connects the housing parts to one another. | 08-27-2015 |

20120247966 | METHOD FOR ELECTROCHEMICAL COATING OF A SUBSTRATE BY MEANS OF BRUSH PLATING AND DEVICE FOR CARRYING OUT SAID METHOD - A method electrochemically coats a substrate by brush plating. Particles are applied to the surface to be coated via a separated line system before the carrier for the electrolytes. The electrolyte is added to the carrier via a line system. The advantageous result thereof is that an agglomeration of the particles can be prevented because only a short time passes after the application of the particles until the formation of the layer. A device for electrochemical coating has two line systems for the cited purpose. The highly stressed surface components of rollers in rolling mills can be partially coated by the method. | 10-04-2012 |
