Abstract

An assembly for passing an electrical harness through a wall includes a tubular metal end piece passing right through the wall and housing the electrical harness. The assembly further includes a sleeve made from heat-shrinkable material extending around an end part of the tubular end piece and of the electrical harness. The assembly further includes structures for extracting heat from the tubular end piece that are arranged on the side of the end piece surrounded by the heat-shrinkable sleeve.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An assembly for passing an electrical harness through a wall, the assembly comprising:
a tubular metal end piece passing right through an orifice in the wall and housing the electrical harness;
a heat-shrinkable sleeve made from heat-shrinkable material extending around an end part of the tubular metal end piece and of the electrical harness; and
means for extracting heat from the tubular metal end piece, the means for extracting heat arranged, with respect to the wall, on a side of the tubular metal end piece surrounded by the heat-shrinkable sleeve, wherein the means for extracting heat includes a metal sheath entirely surrounding the heat-shrinkable sleeve, and wherein the tubular metal end piece comprises an annular collar applied to the wall and disposed between the wall and said means for extracting heat.

2. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the
metal sheath is fixed to a first end situated on the wall side by clamping on the tubular metal end piece.

3. The assembly according to claim 2 , wherein said first end of the metal sheath is folded on itself radially inwards and clamped by a first member interposed radially between the first end and the remainder of the metal sheath.

4. The assembly according to claim 3 , wherein a second clamping member is applied to a second end of the metal sheath opposite to the first end that is in contact with the heat-shrinkable sleeve.

5. The assembly according to claim 2 , wherein said metal sheath is produced from a material having a thermal conductivity greater than that of the tubular metal end piece.

6. The assembly according to claim 2 , wherein the metal sheath is a metal braid.

7. The assembly according to claim 1 , wherein the means for extracting heat comprise:
annular grooves disposed in alternation along an axis of the tubular metal end piece with annular ribs on the tubular metal end piece.

8. An intermediate casing for a turbine engine, comprising an assembly according to claim 1 , wherein said wall is a substantially cylindrical wall delimiting a radially internal flow surface of a gas flow.

9. A turbine engine comprising an assembly according to claim 1 .

10. An assembly for passing an electrical harness through a wall, comprising:
a tubular metal end piece passing right through an orifice in the wall and housing the electrical harness; and
a heat shrinkable sleeve made from heat-shrinkable material extending around an end part of the tubular metal end piece and of the electrical harness paid; and
means for extracting heat from the tubular metal end piece, the means for extracting heat arranged, with respect to the wall, on the side of the tubular metal end piece surrounded by the heat-shrinkable sleeve, wherein the means for extracting heat includes a metal sheath entirely surrounding the heat-shrinkable sleeve.
