Abstract:
The invention relates to the field of thermonuclear fusion and can be used in devices for electrically connecting internal elements of the reactor chamber to the vacuum vessel of the nuclear fusion reactor. The present device for electrically connecting elements inside the chamber of a reactor to the vacuum vessel of the nuclear fusion reactor comprises lamellar electrically conductive elements with surface portions oriented in different directions, said elements being stacked between flanges. The device is made as an integral unit, where profiled slots are formed with connecting walls therebetween. The connecting walls constitute the electrically conductive elements and have profiled sections of an increased thickness between the differently oriented surface portions at transition areas to the flanges provided at the end parts of the integral unit. The technical effect of the present invention is an increase in the cyclic strength of the electrically conductive elements at the transition areas between the elements and the flanges and between the differently oriented surface portions (at bends) of the elements. The invention also provides that the electrically conductive elements have similar technical characteristics.
