[0020] The following describes the implementation of the present invention through specific embodiments. People skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in this specification.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention is a cable entry device with a special structure for use in a junction box. It includes a rubber-sealed inner sleeve and a threaded outer sleeve 5, the outer portion of which is connected to the threaded outer sleeve 5. The rubber-sealed inner sleeve includes a copper tube 4 and a rubber-sealed sleeve 2, the outer portion of which is connected to the copper tube 4. The threaded outer sleeve 5 and the copper tube 4 form a flameproof joint surface.

[0022] A copper pipe clamp 3 is provided inside the rubber seal 2, and a pressing joint 3.1 is provided in the middle of the copper pipe clamp 3. The lead wire 1 is inserted into the pressing joint 3.1 of the copper pipe clamp 3 for crimping. The outside of the copper pipe clamp 3 is connected to the rubber seal 2, and the outside of the rubber seal 2 is connected to the copper pipe 4.

[0023] The copper tube 4 and the threaded sleeve 5 are fixed by a snap connection. The snap connection mechanism includes a spring collar 6. The threaded sleeve 5 is provided on the outside of the copper tube 4. The upper end of the copper tube 4 is provided with a groove, and the lower end of the copper tube 4 is provided with a clamping seat. The upper end of the threaded sleeve 5 is located at the lower end of the groove, and the spring collar is located in the groove. The lower end of the threaded sleeve 5 abuts against the clamping seat at the lower end of the copper tube 4.

[0024] During use, the glue-sealed inner sleeve is passed from the main cavity into the cavity of the junction box and through the threaded outer sleeve 5; the glue-sealed inner sleeve is pulled upwards so that it contacts the lower part of the threaded outer sleeve 5; the threaded outer sleeve 5 is screwed in from the junction box toward the main cavity, and Loctite glue is applied when screwing in; when the groove on the upper part of the copper tube 4 is exposed, the spring retaining ring 6 is installed and Loctite glue is applied, and the installation is completed.

[0025] Working principle: the lead wire 1 is arranged in the copper tube clamp 3, the copper tube clamp 3 is placed in the middle position of the copper tube 4, the prepared sealant is injected into the copper tube 4 to form a seal inner sleeve, the outside of the copper tube 4 is connected to a threaded outer sleeve 5, and a flameproof joint surface is formed between the copper tube 4 and the threaded outer sleeve 5.

[0026] A method for manufacturing a cable entry device includes the following steps:

[0027] A: Strip the insulation layer from the end of lead wire 1 to a length of 30 mm (greater than 20 mm, in accordance with the provisions of Appendix C.1.3 of GB3836.2-2010). Insert the entire stripped portion of lead wire 1 into the crimping port 3.1 in the cavity of the copper tube clamp 3. Place the copper tube clamp 3 into the die of the crimping pliers and crimp it. The crimping pressure should be 13-16 MPa, the dent depth should be no less than 4 mm, and the crimping time should be no less than 3 seconds.

[0028] B: To make the sealant, mix resin CW2248 and curing agent Hy956EN in the following ratio: resin CW2248 100g: curing agent Hy956EN 11g. Place the copper pipe clamp 3 in the middle of the copper pipe 4 and fix it using a tool (existing technology). Inject the prepared sealant into the copper pipe using a dedicated device to the specified position to complete the sealant production.

[0029] C: Pass the rubber seal inner sleeve through the threaded outer sleeve 5. When the groove on the upper part of the copper tube 4 is exposed, install the spring clamp 6 and apply Loctite glue. The assembly is completed.

[0030] The sealant needs to cure at room temperature, typically at 35°C for 2 hours, 20°C for 5 hours, or 15°C for 12 hours. The CW2248 resin has a continuous operating temperature (COT) lower limit below the motor's minimum operating temperature and an upper limit at least 20°C above the maximum operating temperature. The sealant also exhibits sufficient thermal stability (in compliance with the test requirements for adhesive materials in Chapter 12 of GB3836.1-2010).

[0031] After the sealant sealant is cured, a withstand voltage test is conducted on the lead wires. The rated voltage is 1140V. The lead wires of the sealant sealant are subjected to a withstand voltage test between the lead wires and the sealant sealant for 1 minute. No flickering or breakdown should occur. The test voltage is 3.5kV. A water pressure test is also conducted. No leakage should occur between the sealant material and the lead wires during the test.

[0032] The center of the pressure pit is about 8-10mm away from the end face of the copper pipe clamp. Double-sided pressure is used, and the centers of the two pressure pits are about 180° apart. The lead-in cable should be firmly connected and must not be loose or pulled off. After the crimping is completed, it should be inspected. When checking, use both hands to hold the lead-in cable separately, slowly rotate it while pulling hard, and ensure that the crimped part is not loose or disconnected.

[0033] The copper tube hoop 3 is crimped onto the lead wire and then soldered to fill the gap between the copper tube hoop 3 and the lead wire with tin.

[0034] The present invention solves the problem that the motor leads cannot be installed in a small space, can save space well, meets the explosion-proof requirements of explosion-proof motors by providing a copper tube, and uses a curing agent to form a glue-sealed inner sleeve, which saves the time of producing the terminal sleeve and opening the mold, saves costs, and shortens the production cycle of the motor.
