Abstract

A choke is used to carry out high-voltage tests. The choke includes: a housing; a coil arranged in an interior of the housing; at least one electrically conductive component arranged between the coil and the housing; and a flux guide configured to guide a magnetic flux that is configured to be generated by the coil. The flux guide includes a ferromagnetic material; and is arranged between the coil and the at least one electrically conductive component in such a way that the magnetic flux that is configured to be generated by the coil is guided past the electrically conductive component.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A choke for carrying out high-voltage tests, the choke comprising:
a housing;
a coil arranged in an interior of the housing;
at least one electrically conductive component arranged between the coil and the housing, the at least one electrically conductive component comprising a field control electrode; and
a flux guide configured to guide a magnetic flux that is configured to be generated by the coil,
wherein the flux guide:
comprises a ferromagnetic material; and
is arranged between the coil and the at least one electrically conductive component, comprising the field control electrode, in such a way that the magnetic flux that is configured to be generated by the coil is guided past the electrically conductive component, comprising the field control electrode.

2. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the housing consists at least in part of an electrically conductive material and the flux guide is so arranged that it screens the electrically conductive material of the housing from a magnetic flux able to be generated by means of the coil.

3. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the flux guide comprises a cylindrical component which at least partly radially surrounds the coil.

4. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the flux guide comprises at least two segments which are arranged to be distributed radially around the coil and which extend along the coil.

5. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the flux guide is electrically and mechanically connected with the coil.

6. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the electrically conductive component is arranged between the flux guide and the housing.

7. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the coil is an air coil.

8. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the choke comprises a suspension, which carries the coil, and the flux guide comprises an inner component arranged in an interior of the suspension.

9. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the flux guide comprises at least one end component which is arranged at a face end of the coil and is oriented perpendicularly to a winding axis of the coil.

10. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the choke comprises at least one further coil, which is connected in series with the coil.

11. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the choke comprises at least one high-voltage terminal for electrical contacting of the coil.

12. The choke according to claim 1 , wherein the choke is a choke with fixed inductance.

13. A test arrangement for carrying out high-voltage tests on a test piece, wherein the test arrangement comprises one or more chokes connected in series or parallel, wherein at least one of the chokes is constructed in accordance with claim 1 .

14. The test arrangement according to claim 13 , wherein the test arrangement comprises a feed source, which is connectible with the one or more chokes and the test piece to form a resonance circuit.

15. The choke according to claim 6 , wherein the electrically conductive component is arranged radially between the flux guide and the housing.
