Patent ID: 7384292

Claim:
A high-voltage electrical connector, comprising: (i) a connection of a contact part and an electrical conducting cable of at least one of first and second connector parts; and (ii) a take-up of an electromagnetic shielding element of said at least one of the first and second connector parts, at least two air-tight cavities that are electrically isolated and able to collect air imprisoned in the electrical conducting cable, wherein one of the at least two air-tight cavities present at the connection (i) of the contact part and the conducting cable is formed by at least one conducting ring or sleeve assembled with air-tight seals between the contact part and an end sleeving of the electrical conducting cable, and wherein the other of the at least two air-tight cavities present at the take-up (ii) is surrounded by (a) a conducting sleeve field expander, (b) a conducting front ring surrounding the take-up of the electromagnetic shielding element, (c) a conducting rear ring applied onto a second coaxial sleeving, and (d) at least one flexible annular air-tight seal positioned between the conducting front ring and the conducting rear ring, at the location of the take-up of the electromagnetic shielding element between a downstream part and an upstream part, relative to the take-up of the electromagnetic shielding element, of the electrical conducting cable.
