摘要:
The invention relates to a method for igniting a fuel/air mixture in one or more combustion chambers which are delimited by walls that are at ground potential, wherein an electric resonant circuit is excited in which an ignition electrode, which is guided through one of the walls delimiting the combustion chamber in an electrically insulated manner and which extends into the combustion chamber, in cooperation with the walls of the combustion chamber that are at ground potential constitutes a capacitance, and in which the excitation of the resonant circuit is controlled such that a corona discharge igniting the fuel/air mixture is created in the combustion chamber at the ignition electrode. The strength of the AC current flowing in the resonant circuit, the AC voltage exciting the resonant circuit and/or the impedance of the resonant circuit are monitored, and the observations or one or more measurement variables derived therefrom and/or the time curve thereof are used to obtain indicators that characterize the state of the combustion chamber and/or the state of the material mixture present in the combustion chamber and are provided for further processing.

A corona igniter (20) comprises a central electrode (22) surrounded by an insulator (26), which is surrounded by a conductive component. The conductive component includes a shell (34) and an intermediate part (36) both formed of an electrically conductive material. The intermediate part (36) is typically attached to a lower ledge (52) of the insulator outer surface (50) prior to inserting the insulator (26) into the shell (34). The shell firing end (56) is typically aligned with the lower edge and the intermediate firing end. The conductive inner diameter (Dg) is less than an insulator outer diameter (Dio) directly below the lower ledge (52) such the insulator thickness (ti) increases toward the electrode firing end (40).

A composite insulator comprises a rod with an insulating jacket and ribs and at least one end fitting and at least one corona shield. The latter is integrally manufactured from plastic material. It is configured to be coaxially disposed on the composite insulator at the transition from the rod to the end fitting. The corona shield forms a cavity, which is open towards the inside and which can be filled with sealant compound through at least one filling channel and which comprises a closing cuff in axial direction on both sides for sealing the cavity. The diameter of the rod side closing cuff is adapted to the diameter of the insulating jacket, and the diameter of the fitting side closing cuff is adapted to the diameter of the end fitting. The filling channel leads to the cavity from the outside.

A method of securing a corona ring for controlling a corona discharge, including inserting a support member of an insulator to be secured, between a first ring securing portion arranged integrally with the corona ring and a second ring securing portion arranged independently with respect to the first ring securing portion, and fixing the first ring securing portion and the second ring securing portion from each other. In this method, since a corona discharge ring improper mounting preventing apparatus is arranged on the first ring securing portion, one of the ring securing portions is preliminarily secured to the support member, a ring securing method at the seal portion of the support member is improved and/or a corona discharge ring improper mounting preventing apparatus is arranged on said support member it is not possible to fix the corona ring to the support member if the corona ring is secured in an incorrect position with respect to the support member. Therefore, it is possible to prevent a corona ring mis-securing operation.

According to the invention, electrically conductive paths are formed between the coil armor and the core laminations of dynamoelectric machines for inhibiting corona. This is achieved by injecting an uncured, semi-conducting, elastomeric material between the coil sides and the walls of the core slots by way of the air ducts in the core, and thereafter curing the material. The uncured material has a viscosity which enables it to be forced under pressure between the coil sides and slot walls by means of a pneumatically actuated gun assembly whose construction and operation are described in detail. The cured material has a resistance high enough not to form eddy current paths between laminations and yet low enough to conduct charge from the coil armor to the core. It is also capable of retaining its strength, elasticity, conductivity, etc., and remaining in place between the coils and core under vibrations, coolant flow, electric stresses, repeated temperature changes, etc., for the normal operating life of the machine.
