Benefits of technology

0007] to construct a protection or guard hose for protecting electrically insulated conductors in such a way that a defined separation of routes or electrical connections is assured when electrical signal conductors, electrical control conductors, and electrical power supply conductors are installed in such guard hose arrangements;

Problems solved by technology

Such adverse influences are, for example, caused by the transmission of vibrations which scour the electrical insulation thereby damaging the insulation, which in turn may lead to further problems such as moisture entering into the electrical conductors through the damaged insulation.
Due to the multitude of connections or routes that must be established within an aircraft and due to the limited space available in an aircraft for such installations it becomes quite a challenge for the maintenance and repair crews to clearly distinguish individual conductors in the multitude of electrical conductors installed in individual protective tubular members or hoses.
A wrong connection may have disastrous ef...

Embodiment Construction

[0028] In this context the term "protection hose" and the term "guard hose" are used as synonyms. These terms are intended to cover all tubular material capable of holding and protecting electrically insulated conductors.

[0029] FIG. 1 shows an end view of two guard hoses 1 and 2 spaced from each other by a spacer 5 connected at its upper end at a junction 6 to the guard hose 1. The spacer 5 is connected at a junction 7 to the lower guard hose 2. Each guard hose 1, 2 holds a plurality of insulated electrical conductors 4 merely symbolically shown by randomly positioned dots. The guard hose arrangements according to the invention may be oriented vertically or in any other position as required by the installation conditions in an aircraft. The guard hoses 1 and 2 and the spacer or spacers 5 are preferably made of synthetic materials such as PTFE.

[0030] FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. 1 illustrating a plurality of guard hoses 1, 2, 3 . . . n. Each of these guard hoses holds a plurality...

Abstract

Insulated electrical conductors for installation in a vehicle, such as an aircraft, are further protected by a guard hose or tubular member. Two or more such guard hoses or tubular members are interconnected with each other by at least one spacer preferably, but not necessarily, integrally formed with the guard hoses or tubular member, whereby the separation of different types of electrical conductors and their installation in an aircraft are facilitated.

Description

PRIORITY CLAIM[0001] This application is based on and claims the priority under 35 U.S.C. .sctn.119 of German Patent Application 102 41 573.0-22, filed on Sep. 7, 2002, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.[0002] The invention provides additional protection for electrically insulated electrical conductors installed in a vehicle, particularly an aircraft.BACKGROUND INFORMATION[0003] The installation of insulated electrical conductors in a protection device such as a tubular or hose member provides one possibility, among several, for protecting the conductors against external mechanical adverse influences. Such adverse influences are, for example, caused by the transmission of vibrations which scour the electrical insulation thereby damaging the insulation, which in turn may lead to further problems such as moisture entering into the electrical conductors through the damaged insulation. The exposure of the electrical conductors to external electromagnetic...
