Abstract

The present invention relates to the technical field of power cable manufacturing methods, and specifically, to a method for manufacturing a low-smoke, halogen-free, flame-retardant, and fire-resistant B1-level power cable. It includes a mixer and an extruder. The stirring and mixing is performed by rotating a stirring component. During the stirring process, the inner wall of the barrel is scratched to remove adhered materials, ensure accurate stirring amount, improve efficiency and uniformity, and reduce cleaning difficulty. When the stirring component rotates, it drives the height adjustment component to rotate in the same direction, increase shear force, break up agglomerated particles, improve mixing fineness, share pressure, and extend the life of the device. During operation, the material is guided to flow upward to enhance mixing, and when stopped, it is directed downward to the extruder. For materials containing light solid particles and low viscosity, the height adjustment component is moved downward to make the stirring rod face upward, generating an upward thrust to disperse the light particles and promote the circulation of low-viscosity materials. For materials such as heavier solid particles, the height adjustment component is moved upward to make the stirring rod face downward, generating a downward thrust to assist precipitation and effective shear stirring.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of power cable manufacturing methods, and in particular to a method for manufacturing a low-smoke, halogen-free, flame-retardant and fire-resistant B1-level power cable. Background Art

[0002] With the development of society, crowded public places such as shopping malls, schools, hospitals, subway stations, etc., as well as important facilities such as data centers, financial institutions, and communication hubs, have extremely high requirements for the continuity and safety of power supply. In these places, once a fire occurs, traditional power cables will not only fail to effectively prevent the spread of the fire, but may also affect the evacuation of personnel due to thick smoke and toxic gases, and even cause the power system to be paralyzed, causing huge losses. Therefore, in order to improve the safety and reliability of power transmission, while meeting environmental protection requirements and fire prevention needs in special places, low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant and fire-resistant B1-level power cables came into being. This type of cable has significant advantages in flame retardancy, smoke production, toxic gas emissions, environmental protection characteristics, and ensuring the stability of the power system. It can effectively respond to emergencies such as fires and reduce risks and losses.

[0003] In the preparation process of low-smoke halogen-free flame retardant and fire-resistant B1 grade materials, in order to achieve good performance, polyethylene, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, etc. are usually used as base resins, inorganic flame retardants such as aluminum hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide, organic phosphorus flame retardants such as phosphate esters and phosphonates, refractory materials such as mica and ceramic silicone rubber, smoke suppressants such as molybdenum compounds and zinc compounds, as well as antioxidants, lubricants, fillers such as calcium carbonate and talc, coupling agents, etc.

[0004] In the actual preparation process, these materials need to be fully and evenly mixed to give full play to their optimal performance, so a mixer is usually required. For the mixing of low-smoke halogen-free flame retardant and fire-resistant B1 grade materials, on the one hand, it is crucial to keep the mixing equipment clean. After the existing mixer is used, it is often difficult to clean the inside thoroughly, and other materials or impurities are easily left. These residual substances mixed into the new batch of mixing may change the composition ratio of the material, trigger chemical reactions, cause the local performance of the product to decline, reduce purity and stability, and thus affect its flame retardant, fire resistant and other key properties. On the other hand, different materials have different physical and chemical properties, such as viscosity, particle size, density, etc. However, the existing mixer has limitations in the choice of stirring mode and intensity, and often cannot accurately adapt to various materials. Improper stirring mode and intensity may not achieve fully uniform mixing, and may even destroy the material structure, causing the additive to fail, and ultimately affecting the performance of the material.

Example 1

[0040] See also Figure 1-Figure 8 As shown, the purpose of this embodiment is to provide a method for manufacturing a low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant and fire-resistant B1 class power cable, comprising the following steps:

[0046] The mixer 1 includes a barrel 11, a lower hopper 110, a support block 12, an inclined rod 120, a stirring assembly 13, a height adjustment assembly 14 and a piston 15. The barrel 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the discharge port of the extruder 2. The top of the barrel 11 is fixedly connected to the hopper 110. The inner wall of the hopper 110 is fixedly connected to a plurality of inclined rods 120. The ends of the plurality of inclined rods 120 are fixedly connected to the support block 12.

[0047] The stirring component 13 is used to fully mix the various materials inside the barrel 11, and at the same time to scratch and clean the inner wall of the barrel 11 to maintain the cleanliness of the inner wall of the barrel 11. The height adjustment component 14 is used to adjust the stirring mode of the stirring component 13, and at the same time to guide the materials inside the barrel 11 and reduce the stirring energy consumption of the stirring component 13.

[0048] The improvement of this embodiment is that: the materials suitable for making low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant and fire-resistant B1-level power cables are input into the barrel 11 from the lower hopper 110 according to appropriate proportions, and the various materials are stirred and mixed by the rotation of the stirring component 13; and during the stirring process, the stirring component 13 scrapes the inner wall of the barrel 11, so that the materials adhering to the inner wall of the barrel 11 can be removed in time, ensuring that the amount of materials involved in the stirring is accurate, which not only improves the stirring efficiency, but also enhances the mixing uniformity, and at the same time reduces the difficulty of subsequent cleaning of the barrel 11, reducing the cleaning time and the use of cleaning agents;

[0049] When the stirring component 13 rotates and stirs, it will also drive the height adjustment component 14 to rotate in the same direction as the stirring component 13, which can not only increase the shear force on the material, help to break up the agglomerated material particles, and further improve the fineness of the mixing, but also to a certain extent share the pressure of the material on the stirring device, reduce the load of the stirring device, and extend its service life; at the same time, when the stirring component 13 is running, it guides the material to flow upward, promotes the circulation of the whole material, and enhances the mixing effect; and when the stirring component 13 stops, it guides the material downward, and introduces the mixed material into the extruder 2;

[0050] Among them, the existing materials suitable for the production of low-smoke halogen-free flame retardant and fire-resistant B1 grade power cables include: base materials, such as polyethylene (PE), cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE), and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA); flame retardants, including inorganic flame retardants such as magnesium hydroxide, aluminum hydroxide, and organic phosphorus flame retardants such as phosphate esters and phosphonates; refractory materials such as mica and ceramic silicone rubber; smoke suppressants such as molybdenum compounds and zinc compounds; antioxidants such as hindered phenol antioxidants and phosphite antioxidants; lubricants such as silicone oil and fatty acid esters; fillers such as calcium carbonate and talc; and coupling agents such as silane coupling agents and titanate coupling agents.

[0051] First, the specific structure of the stirring assembly 13 is disclosed. The stirring assembly 13 includes a motor 131. The motor 131 is fixedly connected to the inside of the support block 12. The end of the output shaft of the motor 131 passing through the support block 12 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 130. A plurality of stirring rods 132 are movably connected inside the rotating rod 130. A piston 15 is provided between the outer wall of the stirring rod 132 and the inner part of the outer wall of the rotating rod 130. The end of the stirring rod 132 passing through the rotating rod 130 is fixedly connected to a blade 133. The blade 133 is movably connected to the inner wall of the barrel 11. A height adjustment assembly 14 is fixedly connected between the ends of the plurality of stirring rods 132. The height adjustment assembly 14 is movably connected inside the rotating rod 130.

[0052] The output shaft of the motor 131 rotates to drive the rotating rod 130 to rotate, and the rotating rod 130 rotates to drive the stirring rod 132 inside it to rotate, so that the multiple stirring rods 132 stir and mix the multiple materials inside the barrel 11. At the same time, during the rotation of the stirring rod 132, the blade 133 is driven to rotate along the inner wall of the barrel 11, so that the blade 133 scrapes the material on the inner wall of the barrel 11, so that the material adhering to the inner wall of the barrel 11 is removed in time, ensuring the accuracy of the amount of material involved in the stirring, improving the stirring efficiency and mixing uniformity, and reducing the difficulty of subsequent cleaning of the barrel 11, reducing the cleaning time and the use of cleaning agents.

[0053] The stirring rod 132 includes a thick rod 1320, which is movably connected to the inside of the rotating rod 130, and a piston 15 is provided between the outer wall of the thick rod 1320 and the outer wall of the rotating rod 130. The thick rod 1320 passes through the inside of the rotating rod 130 and is movably connected to a thin rod 1321, and an elastic member 1322 is fixedly connected between the end of the thin rod 1321 and the inner bottom of the thick rod 1320. One end of the thin rod 1321 passing through the thick rod 1320 is movably connected to a thin block 1323, and a blade 133 is fixedly connected to the end of the thin block 1323, and the other end of the thick rod 1320 is movably connected to a thick block 1324, and the outer walls of both sides of the thin block 1323 and the thick block 1324 are fixedly connected with a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft of the thick block 1324 is movably connected to the inside of the thick rod 1320, and the rotating shaft of the thin block 1323 is movably connected to the inside of the thin rod 1321, and a height adjustment component 14 is fixedly connected between the ends of multiple thick blocks 1324;

[0054] By pressing the thin rod 1321 to drive the elastic member 1322 to contract, the thin rod 1321 can be conveniently contracted inside the thick rod 1320, and the length between the thin rod 1321 and the thick rod 1320 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the distance between the blade 133 and the rotating rod 130, so that the stirring assembly 13 is conveniently applicable to the inside of the barrel 11 of various diameters. In addition, during the rotation of the rotating rod 130, the centrifugal force is released on the thin rod 1321 and the elastic member 1322, so that the thin rod 1321 and the elastic member 1322 are stretched outward. During the process of the thin rod 1321 stretching outward, an extrusion force is applied to the blade 133, thereby increasing the scraping force of the blade 133, making it convenient to clean materials with higher viscosity, so that the blade 133 can clean the inner wall of the barrel 11 more fully.

[0055] Secondly, the specific structure of the height adjustment component 14 is disclosed. The height adjustment component 14 includes a support rod 140, which is fixedly connected between the ends of a plurality of thick blocks 1324. The support rod 140 is located inside the rotating rod 130. A circular plate 142 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 140. A cylinder 143 is fixedly connected to the top of the circular plate 142. The cylinder 143 is fixedly connected to the inside of the rotating rod 130 near the top. One end of the support rod 140 passing through the bottom of the rotating rod 130 is fixedly connected to a guide plate 141.

[0056] The piston rod of the cylinder 143 pushes the circular plate 142 to slide inside the rotating rod 130, so that the circular plate 142 drives the support rod 140 to move up and down. The height of the plurality of thick blocks 1324 is adjusted by the up and down movement of the support rod 140. When the thick block 1324 and the thick rod 1320 are in a horizontal state, the stirring direction of the thick rod 1320 and the thin rod 1321 is in a horizontal state. At this time, the thin block 1323 and the thin rod 1321 are also in a horizontal state, which is convenient for stirring most materials that do not have special shapes;

[0057] The rotating rod 130 is rotated to drive the support rod 140 inside it to rotate in the same direction as the rotating rod 130, and the support rod 140 is rotated to drive the guide plate 141 to rotate, wherein the guide plate 141 is in a conical state. According to the shape characteristics of the guide plate 141 itself, the guide plate 141 has an upward conical slope, which guides the material to flow upward during the rotation process, promotes the circulation of the whole material, enhances the mixing effect, and brings up most of the material at the bottom of the barrel 11, preventing the heavier or more viscous material from being deposited at the bottom, increasing the shear force on the material, and helping to break up the agglomerated material particles, further improving the fineness of the mixing;

[0058] When the rotating rod 130 stops rotating, the guide plate 141 stops rotating, so that the material inside the barrel 11 slides downward along the conical surface of the guide plate 141, wherein the guide plate 141 is made of Teflon material. The Teflon material of the guide plate 141 has excellent non-stickiness, high temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, which prevents the material from sticking to the guide plate 141 and smoothly introduces the mixed material into the extruder 2.

[0059] The piston 15 is fixedly connected to the inner part of the outer wall of the rotating rod 130, and the thick rod 1320 is movably connected inside the piston 15. The piston 15 is made of rubber. When the support rod 140 moves up and down and the angle of the thick rod 1320 inside the rotating rod 130 is adjusted, the piston 15 is squeezed. According to the high rebound characteristic of its own rubber material, the piston 15 always clamps the thick rod 1320 to maintain the density between the thick rod 1320 and the rotating rod 130, avoiding material from flowing into the rotating rod 130, and facilitating the piston 15 to shrink and squeeze in time when the angle of the thick rod 1320 is adjusted, squeeze the inclined thick rod 1320, and support the thick rod 1320.

[0060] In summary, the working principle of this solution is as follows:

[0061] The output shaft of the motor 131 rotates to drive the rotating rod 130 to rotate, and then the stirring rod 132 inside the rotating rod 130 rotates, so that the multiple stirring rods 132 stir and mix the various materials in the barrel 11; pressing the thin rod 1321 can drive the elastic member 1322 to contract, and the thin rod 1321 is contracted inside the thick rod 1320, so as to adjust the length between the thin rod 1321 and the thick rod 1320, and thus adjust the distance between the blade 133 and the rotating rod 130, so that the stirring assembly 13 is suitable for barrels 11 of various diameters; and, when the rotating rod 130 During the rotation, centrifugal force is released on the thin rod 1321 and the elastic member 1322, so that the thin rod 1321 and the elastic member 1322 are stretched outward. During the outward stretching process of the thin rod 1321, an extrusion force is applied to the blade 133, which increases the scraping force of the blade 133, facilitates the timely removal of materials adhering to the inner wall of the barrel 11, improves the degree of scraping and cleaning of materials with high viscosity on the inner wall of the barrel 11, ensures the accuracy of the amount of materials involved in the mixing, improves the mixing efficiency and mixing uniformity, and reduces the difficulty of subsequent cleaning of the barrel 11, reducing the cleaning time and the use of cleaning agents;

[0062] The piston rod of the cylinder 143 pushes the circular plate 142 to slide inside the rotating rod 130, driving the support rod 140 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the height of the plurality of thick blocks 1324; when the thick block 1324 and the thick rod 1320 are in a horizontal state, the stirring direction of the thick rod 1320 and the thin rod 1321 is in a horizontal state, and at this time the thin block 1323 and the thin rod 1321 are also in a horizontal state, which is convenient for stirring most materials without special shapes;

[0063] When the rotating rod 130 rotates, the support rod 140 inside it is driven to rotate in the same direction. The rotation of the support rod 140 drives the cone-shaped guide plate 141 to rotate; the upward conical slope of the guide plate 141 guides the material to flow upward during the rotation process, promotes the circulation of the entire material, enhances the mixing effect, and can also bring most of the material at the bottom of the barrel 11 upward to prevent heavier or more viscous materials from depositing at the bottom, increase the shear force on the material, help break up the agglomerated material particles, and further improve the fineness of the mixing; when the rotating rod 130 stops rotating, the guide plate 141 stops rotating, and the material in the barrel 11 slides downward along the conical surface of the guide plate 141; because the guide plate 141 is made of Teflon, it has excellent non-stickiness, high temperature resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, avoids material sticking, and facilitates the smooth introduction of the mixed material into the extruder 2;

[0064] Among them, when the support rod 140 moves up and down to adjust the angle of the thick rod 1320 inside the rotating rod 130, the piston 15 will be squeezed; since the rubber material of the piston 15 itself has high resilience characteristics, it can always clamp the thick rod 1320, maintain the sealing between the thick rod 1320 and the rotating rod 130, and prevent the material from flowing into the rotating rod 130, and when the angle of the thick rod 1320 is adjusted, the piston 15 can shrink and squeeze in time to support the inclined thick rod 1320. Example 2

[0065] See also Figure 3 As shown, the stirring rod 132 in the present application has a stirring force inclined downward, when it is necessary to mix some filler materials with heavier solid particles that need to be separated by precipitation, and those with higher viscosity that require stronger shear force to break the structure to achieve mixing, such as calcium carbonate, and ceramic silicone rubber materials with higher viscosity that require stronger shear force to mix, and some organic phosphorus flame retardant materials, such as phosphate esters and phosphonates, in the low-smoke halogen-free flame retardant and fire-resistant B1 grade preparation materials;

[0066] The piston rod of the cylinder 143 pushes the circular plate 142 upward, so that the circular plate 142 applies an upward pulling force to the support rod 140; as the support rod 140 moves upward, the coarse block 1324 is driven upward; when one end of the coarse block 1324 is lifted upward, the other end of the coarse rod 1320 will tilt downward, so that the thin rod 1321 at the other end of the coarse rod 1320 moves downward along the end of the coarse rod 1320, thereby forming a downward tilted stirring angle between the stirring rod 132 and the rotating rod 130; in this way, the downward stirring force generated by the downward tilted stirring rod 132 during rotation can help the solid particles to settle faster, and can more effectively shear and stir the material. Example

[0067] See also Figure 4 As shown, the stirring rod 132 in the present application has an upwardly inclined stirring force, when it is necessary to mix filler materials with light solid particle characteristics such as talcum powder in the low-smoke halogen-free flame retardant and fire-resistant B1 grade preparation materials, and lubricant materials with low viscosity such as silicone oil or some types of fatty acid esters;

[0068] The circular plate 142 is pushed downward by the piston rod of the cylinder 143, and the circular plate 142 applies a downward thrust to the support rod 140; as the support rod 140 moves downward, the thick block 1324 is driven downward; when one end of the thick block 1324 is pressed downward, the other end of the thick rod 1320 will tilt upward, so that the thin rod 1321 at the other end of the thick rod 1320 moves upward along the end of the thick rod 1320, thereby forming an upward tilted stirring angle between the stirring rod 132 and the rotating rod 130; in this way, the upward thrust generated by the upward tilted stirring rod 132 during rotation helps to keep the light particles evenly dispersed in the liquid and prevent them from sinking, and can also push the material with lower viscosity to circulate in the axial direction, thereby enhancing the mixing effect.
