Полезная модель относится к электроэнергетике, в частности к устройствам для защиты поддерживающих и натяжных гирлянд изоляторов воздушных линий электропередачи напряжением 6-1150 кВ от продуктов жизнедеятельности птиц и птиц от негативного воздействия самой воздушной линии электропередачи. Устройство устанавливается на траверсе 1 воздушной линии в непосредственной близости к гирляндам 2 или группой устройств по значительной длине траверсы 1. Оно представляет собой антиприсадный элемент 3, то есть элемент, не позволяющий осуществлять посадку птицам и строить гнезда на нем. Антиприсадный элемент 3 изготавливается из изолирующего материала, например, из одной детали или составным, и выполняется в виде конической или пирамидальной оболочки или в виде усеченной, по меньшей мере, в одной плоскости конической или пирамидальной оболочки. Возможен такж вариант изготовления антиприсадного элемента 3 в виде полнообъемной конструкции. Антиприсадный элемент 3 крепится к траверсе 1 или каким-то другим конструкциям воздушной линии аналогичного назначения посредством узла крепления 4, представляющего собой отдельный от антиприсадного элемента 3 узел или конструктивно объединенный с антиприсадным элементом 3. Устройство является простым, эффективным и надежным универсальным устройством, так как позволяет практически полностью исключить повреждения линий с изолирующими подвесками на опорных и штыревых изоляторах из-за посадки и гнездования на них птиц и одновременно защитить самих птиц от поражения электрическим током. 2 з.п. ф-лы; 1 ил.

There is no need to remove the drill bit from the aperture or material to attach the cable thereto. After attachment to the drill bit, the cable is inserted through the aperture with the drill bit and removed from the drill bit after it passes through the material so it can be attached to a receiver device.

System And Method For De-Icing Conductive Objects Utilizing At Least One Variable Resistance Conductor With High Frequency Excitation

Номер: US20130092678A1
Автор: Charles R. Sullivan, Victor F. Petrenko
Принадлежит: Dartmouth College

A conductor of a power transmission line has its effective resistance to flow of direct current or low-frequency current (such as, for example, 50 Hz or 60 Hz) varied in a wide range to pass current and/or to generate heat for melting ice. Increasing the initial resistance of a conductor is accomplished by modulating the current at a high frequency (HF), such as about 1 kHz to about 100 kHz. The current through the conductor then becomes a mixture of a DC (or low-frequency current) and a high-frequency current. Because the latter flows in a thin skin-layer region of the conductor of depth dependent on frequency, the conductor's resistance to the HF current is higher than its resistance value for low frequency or DC current. By varying the frequency of current modulation in accordance with the present invention, the conductor's resistance is adjusted to a desired value for ice removal.

A technique for aiding an underground communications cable installer in the installation such cable in underground utilities neighborhoods. The technique manages the problem presented by a surface-visible, underground-pathway obstruction such as a sidewalk, which lies across the path of installation. The technique, or method, is useful with any kind of cable, such as fiberoptic cable or copper wire cable. Hydraulic water pressure is applied through a biased, flexible conduit to erode a pathway under the obstruction from ground surface on one side to ground surface on the opposite side of the obstruction, thereby forming a tunnel under the obstruction through which the cable can be easily pulled. In alternative embodiments, the cable can be inserted directly into and through the conduit while it is underground, the conduit then acting as a sleeve for the cable which is subsequently removed prior to burying the cable in a trench dug from street-located handhole to house. Special apparatus connects a water hose to the flexible conduit (PVC plastic) to provide watertight operation while allowing manual flow control. 117-. (canceled)18.
