Title: Radio frequency coaxial feedthrough device

Patent ·
OSTI ID:5949620

A high voltage radio frequency coaxial feedthrough device is described for transmitting high voltage radio frequency energy between first and second coaxial transmission lines of different dielectric mediums and pressures. The device consists of: a tapered inner coaxial conductor including means for electrical connection at an upstream end thereof to an inner coaxial conductor of the first coaxial line and at a downstream end thereof to an inner coaxial conductor of the second coaxial line; a tapered outer coaxial conductor including means for electrical connection at the upstream end thereof to an outer coaxial conductor of the first coaxial line at the downstream end thereof to an outer coaxial conductor of the second coaxial line; a coaxially disposed cylindrical insulator formed of a rigid, impermeable, electrically insulating material; means for removably connecting the cylindrical insulator in a leak-tight sealing arrangement between the first mounting ring of the cylindrical insulator and the inner conductor at the upstream end of the cylindrical insulator.
