Magnetic Switch Movable Cores for High Voltage DC

The movable core is divided into multiple segments (first movable core and second movable core) that can move independently or collectively. This segmentation allows the system to generate greater compressive force through coordinated movement of multiple components while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure. Each segment can be actuated by the magnetic field to contribute to the total compression distance.

The patent employs a nested arrangement where the first movable core and second movable core are positioned within the same cylindrical space, with one core potentially containing or surrounding the other. This nesting allows both cores to utilize the same spatial envelope, increasing the effective compression distance without proportionally increasing the device's external dimensions or complexity.

The patent utilizes the radial dimension by arranging movable cores in a cylindrical configuration around a central axis. Instead of simply extending the compression distance linearly in one direction, the invention employs radial movement of multiple cores within the cylindrical space, effectively using three-dimensional space to achieve greater compression distance without proportionally increasing the overall device volume.

The nested arrangement of multiple movable cores within the cylindrical space allows the system to achieve extended compression distance by coordinating the movement of nested components. The inner and outer cores can move in a coordinated manner, effectively multiplying the compression distance within the same volumetric envelope, thereby improving reliability without significantly increasing device volume.

The movable core functionality is segmented into multiple independent or semi-independent cores (first movable core and second movable core). Each core can be actuated by the magnetic field and contributes to the total compression distance. This segmentation multiplies the effective compression distance without requiring a single overly complex core structure.

The patent combines multiple movable cores within a unified cylindrical structure that shares common components such as the return spring and magnetic actuation mechanism. This merging approach allows multiple cores to work together to achieve extended compression distance while avoiding the complexity of completely separate actuation systems for each core.
