Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of dynamic submarine cable underwater protection technology, and in particular to a submarine cable clamp, a submarine cable structure, and a method for processing the submarine cable structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of scientific research projects such as deep-sea mining and deep-sea laboratories, the length of submarine cables used in conjunction with these projects is gradually increasing. For submarine cables that carry optical and electrical transmission, the increasing length will lead to excessive weight. Submarine cables will have to increase the tensile strength of their armor layers to meet the weight of the entire cable, and the reinforced armor layers will further increase the weight of the cable.

[0003] To address the above issues, a non-metallic rod-armored submarine cable has been developed. This cable replaces the traditional armor steel wires with a non-metallic armor layer based on aramid rods. The aramid rods are formed by bonding and curing multiple aramid fibers into a rod shape using epoxy adhesive. An outer layer of nylon material is then applied to provide abrasion protection. This significantly reduces the weight of the submarine cable armor layer without compromising its tensile strength, thereby reducing the overall weight of the submarine cable.

[0004] Currently, the armoring fixtures for non-metallic rod armor layers generally adopt two forms: mechanical conical clamps and epoxy glue-filled clamps. Their drawbacks are as follows: Mechanical conical clamps use inner and outer conical clamps to create a self-locking effect by clamping the non-metallic rods within them, thus achieving the function of fixing the non-metallic rod armor. However, the surface of the non-metallic rod is very smooth, and its static friction coefficient is low. Therefore, the cone angle of the conical clamp must be very small to achieve the self-locking effect. At the same time, the characteristics of non-metallic rods make them better at withstanding axial tension than radial pressure. Under radial pressure, the non-metallic rod is easily crushed, leading to structural failure. Therefore, the actual effect of mechanical conical clamps is poor. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention provides a submarine cable clamp, a submarine cable structure, and a method for processing the submarine cable structure, in order to solve the problem that non-metallic rods in existing submarine cables are easily crushed, resulting in structural failure, and therefore the mechanical conical clamp is not effective.

Moreover, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples described in this specification, as well as the features of different embodiments or examples.

[0039] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 2 The present invention describes a submarine cable clamp 100 provided in an embodiment of the invention, which is used to clamp onto the armor layer 300 outside the submarine cable 200.

[0040] In this embodiment, the submarine cable clamp includes: a clamping part 101, a filler 102, a first reinforcing member 103, and a second reinforcing member 104.

[0041] The clamping part 101 is clamped around the submarine cable 200. The clamping part 101 has a hollow structure and contains a cavity 1010 for the submarine cable 200 to pass through. The filler 102 fills the cavity 1010. The first reinforcing member 103 is disposed in the cavity 1010, that is, the first reinforcing member 103 passes through the filler 102. The first end of the first reinforcing member 103 is used to connect with the armor layer 300, and the second end of the first reinforcing member 103 extends in the filler 102. Since the static friction coefficient between the first reinforcing member 103 and the filler 102 is low, in order to improve the ability to withstand radial pressure, the first reinforcing member 103 is provided with a second reinforcing member 104. The second reinforcing member 104 is connected to the first reinforcing member 103 and is disposed in the filler 102. This ensures the connection between the filler 102, the submarine cable 200, and the clamping part 101, significantly improving the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp and ensuring the reliability and stability of the overall structure.

[0042] The processing method for this submarine cable clamp includes the following steps:

[0043] The armor layer 300 (non-metallic rod) of the submarine cable 200 is cut open at a predetermined location, and the cut portion of the armor layer 300 is processed into the first reinforcing member 103, such as... Figure 3 As shown.

[0044] Using sandpaper or other tools, sand the first reinforcing member 103 until its surface is roughened. Then, connect the second reinforcing member 104 to the first reinforcing member 103. Figure 4 As shown.

[0045] The clamping part 101 is fitted onto the submarine cable 200 and the armor layer 300, so that the first reinforcing member 103 and the second reinforcing member 104 are placed in the cavity 1010, and the filler 102 is injected into the cavity 1010. After standing for at least 24 hours, the fabrication of the submarine cable clamp is completed. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.

[0046] The submarine cable clamp provided in this embodiment of the invention fixes the submarine cable 200 and the armor layer 300 by providing a filler 102 in the cavity 1010 of the clamping part 101, and provides a first reinforcing member 103 in the filler 102 to connect the armor layer 300 and the filler 102, and provides a second reinforcing member 104 on the first reinforcing member 103 to improve the ability of the first reinforcing member to withstand radial pressure, ensure the connection effect of the filler 102, the submarine cable 200 and the clamping part 101, significantly improve the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp, and ensure the reliability and stability of the overall structure.

[0047] In one example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, multiple first reinforcing members 103 are provided, and the specific number can be adjusted according to requirements. The first end of each first reinforcing member 103 is sequentially used to connect with the armor layer 300 along the circumference of the armor layer 300, and the second end of each first reinforcing member 103 is sequentially and spaced apart in the filler 102. By providing multiple first reinforcing members 103, the connection effect of the filler 102, the submarine cable 200, and the clamping part 101 is further ensured, the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp is improved, and the reliability and stability of the overall structure are guaranteed.

[0048] In this embodiment, the first reinforcing members 103 are arranged sequentially around the circumference of the submarine cable 200. The bottom end of each first reinforcing member 103 is connected to the armor layer 300, and the top end of each first reinforcing member 103 extends sequentially at intervals in the filler 102. Each first reinforcing member 103 is provided with a second reinforcing member 104. The first reinforcing members 103 and the second reinforcing members 104 form the skeleton of the filler 102, which greatly improves the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp.

[0049] Accordingly, such as Figure 5 As shown, multiple second reinforcing members 104 may be provided. Each first reinforcing member 103 is provided with multiple second reinforcing members 104 spaced apart. By providing multiple second reinforcing members 104, the ability of each first reinforcing member 103 to withstand radial pressure is improved, preventing the filler 102 from slipping off.

[0050] In this embodiment, multiple first reinforcing members 103 are provided, and each first reinforcing member 103 is provided with five second reinforcing members 104. The five second reinforcing members 104 are arranged sequentially and at intervals on the same first reinforcing member 103. By providing multiple first reinforcing members 103 and multiple second reinforcing members 104, the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp is significantly improved, ensuring the reliability and stability of the overall structure.

[0051] Based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the first reinforcing member 103 includes a connecting rod, which is a non-metallic rod armor layer, and can be a non-metallic rod monofilament directly from the armor layer 300. The second reinforcing member 104 includes a crimping tube, which can be a copper crimping tube for cable intermediate joints. The connecting rod passes through the filler 102, with its first end connected to the armor layer 300 and its second end extending into the filler 102. The crimping tube is connected to the connecting rod and is disposed within the filler 102. By providing a crimping tube on the connecting rod, the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp is significantly improved, ensuring the reliability and stability of the overall structure.

[0052] Because the surface of the non-metallic rod monofilament is very smooth and its static friction coefficient is low, the pressure tube on the connecting rod can increase the friction coefficient, significantly improve the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp, and ensure the reliability and stability of the overall structure.

[0053] At the same time, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the crimping tube has a through hole suitable for the connecting rod to pass through. An adhesive layer 105 is provided between the inner wall of the through hole and the connecting rod, and the adhesive layer 105 is used to fix the crimping tube and the connecting rod. The roughness of the inner wall of the through hole in the crimping tube is improved by machining threaded grooves, and the inner wall of the through hole is coated with acrylic / epoxy adhesive to improve the adhesion between the crimping tube and the connecting rod.

[0054] In one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the filler 102 includes epoxy resin; the adhesive layer 105 includes at least one of epoxy resin and acrylic resin.

[0055] Epoxy adhesives are transparent liquids that require mixing with two different adhesives to cure. The cured product is water-resistant, chemically resistant, and crystal clear. Acrylic adhesives are adhesives with polyacrylate as a single or main component.

[0056] In another embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the inner diameter of the through hole in the crimping tube is smaller than the outer diameter of the connecting rod. During the connection of the crimping tube and the connecting rod, use sandpaper or other tools to sand the plastic coating on the surface of the connecting rod until the surface is roughened. Then, sequentially insert multiple crimping tubes onto the connecting rod, using crimping pliers to evenly crimp them onto the connecting rod. The crimping tubes should be kept as circular as possible after crimping, and the inner diameter of the crimped tube should ideally be 1-2 mm smaller than the outer diameter of the connecting rod. Afterward, use a heat gun to evenly heat and bake the crimping tubes at a temperature of 200-300℃ for approximately 10 seconds to ensure good adhesion between the internal acrylic / epoxy adhesive and the connecting rod.

[0057] Based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the clamping part 101 includes a conical clamp. The conical clamp has a cavity 1010. The two ends of the conical clamp are respectively provided with a first opening and a second opening that communicate with the cavity. The second opening is larger than the first opening, that is, the first opening is the small diameter end and the second opening is the large diameter end. The first opening is used to clamp the clamp to the outside of the armor layer 300, while the second opening is used for grouting of the filler.

[0058] In this embodiment, the first opening is located at the bottom of the entire conical clamp, and the second opening is located at the top of the entire conical clamp. The submarine cable 200 and the armor layer 300 can pass through the first opening, the cavity 1010 and the second opening and be fixed thereto.

[0059] During the use of the conical clamp, the conical clamp is fitted onto the submarine cable 200 and the armor layer 300, so that the first reinforcing member 103 and the second reinforcing member 104 are placed in the conical clamp, the armor layer 300 is clamped by the first opening, and the filler 102 is injected through the second opening.

[0060] If sealing performance is required, a sealing layer can be set on the filler 102 after it is installed, or the filler 102 can be made of a sealing material to prevent seawater from coming into contact with the submarine cable 200 through the filler 102.

[0061] This invention also proposes a submarine cable structure, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cable includes a cable clamp and a cable 200; the cable 200 is covered with an armor layer 300. The cable clamp includes a clamping part 101, a filler 102, a first reinforcing member 103, and a second reinforcing member 104. The clamping part 101 is clamped around the cable 200 and has a hollow structure, with a cavity 1010 for the cable 200 to pass through. The filler 102 fills the cavity 1010. The first reinforcing member 103 is disposed in the cavity 1010, that is, the first reinforcing member 103 passes through the filler 102. The first end of the first reinforcing member 103 is used to connect with the armor layer 300, and the second end of the first reinforcing member 103 extends in the filler 102. Because the static friction coefficient between the first reinforcing member 103 and the filler 102 is low, a second reinforcing member 104 is provided on the first reinforcing member 103 to improve its ability to withstand radial pressure. The second reinforcing member 104 is connected to the first reinforcing member 103 and is disposed in the filler 102. This ensures the connection effect of the filler 102, the submarine cable 200, and the clamping part 101, significantly improves the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp, and ensures the reliability and stability of the overall structure.

[0062] For details on the structure of the submarine cable clamp, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 6 The relevant textual descriptions will not be repeated here.

[0063] The processing method for this submarine cable clamp includes the following steps:

[0064] The armor layer 300 (non-metallic rod) of the submarine cable 200 is cut open at a predetermined location, and the cut portion of the armor layer 300 is processed into the first reinforcing member 103, such as... Figure 3 As shown.

[0065] Using sandpaper or other tools, sand the first reinforcing member 103 until its surface is roughened. Then, connect the second reinforcing member 104 to the first reinforcing member 103. Figure 4 As shown.

[0066] The clamping part 101 is fitted onto the submarine cable 200 and the armor layer 300, so that the first reinforcing member 103 and the second reinforcing member 104 are placed in the cavity 1010, and the filler 102 is injected into the cavity 1010. After standing for at least 24 hours, the fabrication of the submarine cable clamp is completed. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.

[0067] The submarine cable structure provided in this embodiment of the invention fixes the submarine cable 200 and the armor layer 300 by providing a filler 102 in the cavity 1010 of the clamping part 101, and provides a first reinforcing member 103 in the filler 102 to connect the armor layer 300 and the filler 102, and provides a second reinforcing member 104 on the first reinforcing member 103 to improve the ability of the first reinforcing member to withstand radial pressure, ensure the connection effect of the filler 102, the submarine cable 200 and the clamping part 101, significantly improve the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp, and ensure the reliability and stability of the overall structure.

[0068] This invention also provides a method for processing a submarine cable structure, such as... Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cable includes a cable clamp and a cable 200; the cable 200 is covered with an armor layer 300. The cable clamp includes a clamping part 101, a filler 102, a first reinforcing member 103, and a second reinforcing member 104. The clamping part 101 is clamped around the cable 200 and has a hollow structure, with a cavity 1010 for the cable 200 to pass through. The filler 102 fills the cavity 1010. The first reinforcing member 103 is disposed in the cavity 1010, that is, the first reinforcing member 103 passes through the filler 102. The first end of the first reinforcing member 103 is used to connect with the armor layer 300, and the second end of the first reinforcing member 103 extends in the filler 102. Since the static friction coefficient between the first reinforcing member 103 and the filler 102 is low, in order to improve the ability to withstand radial pressure, the first reinforcing member 103 is provided with a second reinforcing member 104, which is connected to the first reinforcing member 103 and is disposed in the filler 102.

[0069] like Figure 7 As shown, the processing method includes the following steps:

[0070] Step S710: Cut the armor layer on the submarine cable at a preset position, and process the cut part of the armor layer into the first reinforcement.

[0071] The armor layer 300 (non-metallic rod) of the submarine cable 200 is cut open at a predetermined location, and the cut portion of the armor layer 300 is processed into the first reinforcing member 103, such as... Figure 3 As shown.

[0072] Step S720: Connect the second reinforcing member to the first reinforcing member.

[0073] Using sandpaper or other tools, sand the first reinforcing member 103 until its surface is roughened. Then, connect the second reinforcing member 104 to the first reinforcing member 103. Figure 4 As shown.

[0074] Step S730: Insert the clamping part onto the submarine cable and armor layer, so that the first and second reinforcing members are placed in the cavity, and inject filler into the cavity.

[0075] The clamping part 101 is fitted onto the submarine cable 200 and the armor layer 300, so that the first reinforcing member 103 and the second reinforcing member 104 are placed in the cavity 1010, and the filler 102 is injected into the cavity 1010. After standing for at least 24 hours, the fabrication of the submarine cable clamp is completed. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.

[0076] In one specific embodiment, the non-metallic rod armor layer of the submarine cable 200 is broken at an appropriate location, and all the non-metallic rod monofilaments in the non-metallic rod armor layer are spread out at a certain angle, such as... Figure 3 As shown.

[0077] Using sandpaper or similar tools, sand the plastic coating on the surface of the non-metallic rod monofilament until the surface is roughened. Insert the copper crimping connector sequentially onto the non-metallic rod monofilament, using crimping pliers to crimp it evenly. The crimped copper connector should be kept as round as possible, with the inner diameter of the crimped copper connector being 1-2 mm smaller than the outer diameter of the non-metallic rod monofilament. Use a heat gun to evenly heat the copper crimping connector at 200-300℃ for approximately 10 seconds to ensure good adhesion between the internal acrylic / epoxy adhesive and the non-metallic rod monofilament. Figure 5 As shown.

[0078] Then, all non-metallic rods and monofilaments were crimped with copper fittings and heated according to the above steps, resulting in the following effect: Figure 4 As shown.

[0079] Finally, fit the tapered clamp, ensuring that both the non-metallic rod monofilament and the copper crimped connector are inside the cavity of the tapered clamp. Pour epoxy resin into the filling cavity and let it stand for at least 24 hours. This completes the fabrication of the armor clamp for the non-metallic rod armor. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.

[0080] The processing method for the submarine cable structure provided in this embodiment of the invention fixes the submarine cable 200 and the armor layer 300 by providing a filler 102 in the cavity 1010 of the clamping part 101, and provides a first reinforcing member 103 in the filler 102 to connect the armor layer 300 and the filler 102, and provides a second reinforcing member 104 on the first reinforcing member 103 to improve the ability of the first reinforcing member to withstand radial pressure, ensure the connection effect of the filler 102, the submarine cable 200 and the clamping part 101, significantly improve the anti-slip performance of the submarine cable clamp, and ensure the reliability and stability of the overall structure.

[0081] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
