Title:
TERMINATION CONNECTION FOR SUPERCONDUCTIVE CABLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/102340
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A termination connection is configured by being provided with: a low-temperature container filled with a refrigerant; a current lead for a conductor, one end of the current lead being immersed in the refrigerant while the other end is pulled out to a normal temperature section; and a movable connection terminal for a conductor, the movable connection terminal electrically connecting the current lead for a conductor with the superconductive conductor layer of a superconductive cable. The superconductive conductor layer of a superconductive cable, of which the ends are stripped, is connected to the current lead for a conductor via the movable connection terminal for a conductor. The cable core of the superconductive cable can move in the lengthwise direction and rotate in the circumferential direction while keeping the superconductive conductor layer electrically connected to the current lead for a conductor. Moreover, the cable core is horizontally supported within the low-temperature container. As a consequence of the aforementioned configuration, the thermal expansion of the cable core under a heat cycle is absorbed, thereby being able to provide a simplified termination connection of which the size is reduced.
