A high-stability waterproof cable Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to waterproof cables, and more particularly to a highly stable waterproof cable for use in the field of cables. Background Technology
[0002] Waterproof cables are typically made of special polymer materials, possessing excellent sealing and corrosion resistance. They can withstand water pressure and operate stably in harsh underwater environments, providing reliable power and signal transmission in underwater and humid conditions. Therefore, they are widely used in marine engineering, underwater robotics, and submarine communications.
[0003] Due to the complex and variable underwater environment, cables operating in such an environment for extended periods are prone to accumulating various deposits on their surfaces, such as algae, shellfish, and silt. These deposits not only affect the cable's physical structure and chemical properties but also negatively impact its electrical performance, economic cost, and long-term stability.
[0004] Therefore, when waterproof cables are used underwater, how to reduce the accumulation of deposits on their surface and promote their long-term stability is one of the urgent problems to be solved in the application of waterproof cables. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In view of the above-mentioned prior art, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is how to reduce the accumulation of surface deposits on waterproof cables when they are used underwater, so as to promote their long-term stability.
[0006] To solve the above problems, the present invention provides a high-stability waterproof cable, comprising a cable maintenance control box installed on the shore and a waterproof cable body installed underwater and connected to the cable maintenance control box via signal. The waterproof cable body includes a cable core, a cable insulation layer fixedly sleeved on the outside of the cable core, and a waterproof outer layer installed on the outside of the cable insulation layer. A plurality of end-to-end vibration anti-attachment layers are provided between the waterproof outer layer and the cable insulation layer, and vibration cavities are formed in the vibration anti-attachment layers.
[0007] Multiple electromagnetic sleeves are installed inside the oscillation chamber, and the electromagnetic action direction of the electromagnetic sleeves is along the radial direction of the waterproof cable body.

[0008] The cable maintenance control box is equipped with an anti-adhesion auxiliary system, which includes an anti-adhesion processing unit.

[0009] The input terminals of the cable parameter setting unit and the oscillation program setting unit are both connected to the signal input port on the cable maintenance control box. The input terminal of the release contact sensing unit is connected to multiple release trigger seats. The output terminals of the electromagnetic holding unit and the oscillation control unit are both connected to the electromagnetic sleeve signal. The electromagnetic holding unit and the oscillation control unit are parallel control units, and the oscillation control unit has a higher priority than the cable holding unit. The output terminal of the cable data output unit is connected to the signal output port on the cable maintenance control box.
[0010] The aforementioned high-stability waterproof cable effectively achieves vibration-based anti-adhesion of the waterproof cable body. By increasing the mobility of the waterproof cable body during underwater applications, it reduces the probability of adhesion to the outer surface of the waterproof outer layer, reduces the accumulation of adhesion to the outer surface of the waterproof outer layer, and effectively promotes the stability of the waterproof cable body during long-term underwater applications.
[0011] As a supplement to this application, the electromagnetic sleeve includes an inner electromagnetic auxiliary ring fixedly connected to the inner wall of the oscillation cavity on the side closer to the cable core, and an outer elastic electromagnetic ring fixedly connected to the inner wall of the oscillation cavity on the side away from the cable core, corresponding to the position of the inner electromagnetic auxiliary ring. The output terminals of the electromagnetic holding unit and the oscillation control unit are respectively connected to the signal of the outer elastic electromagnetic ring and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary ring.
[0012] As a supplement to this application, the release trigger seat has a guide groove at the end away from the cable core that cooperates with the release trigger post. The inner wall of the guide groove near the cable core is embedded with a trigger conduction core. The input end of the release contact sensing unit is connected to multiple trigger conduction cores.
[0013] As a supplement to this application, the oscillation cavity is filled with insulating filler, and the filling saturation of the insulating filler is 45%-60%.
[0014] As a supplement to this application, a plurality of elastic auxiliary bags located between two adjacent electromagnetic sleeves are evenly distributed along the circumference of the waterproof cable body, and the included angle between two adjacent elastic auxiliary bags evenly distributed along the circumference of the waterproof cable body is any one of 30°, 60° and 120°.
[0015] As a further improvement of this application, the outer elastic electromagnetic coil comprises multiple elastic arc plates and multiple outer electromagnetic arc plates. The elastic arc plates and outer electromagnetic arc plates are arranged at intervals and are fixedly connected end to end to form a ring that cooperates with the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil.
[0016] As a further improvement of this application, the elastic auxiliary bag is fixedly connected between the inner wall of the oscillation chamber on the side closer to the cable core and the inner wall on the side farther from the cable core, and a compression spring sleeved on the outside of the release trigger post and the release trigger seat is fixedly connected inside the elastic auxiliary bag.
[0017] As a further improvement of this application, a conductive insert that mates with the trigger conductive core is embedded at the end of the release trigger post near the cable core.
[0018] As another improvement of this application, an elastic protruding cap is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide groove near the cable core, and a release trigger head that cooperates with the trigger core is fixedly connected to the end of the release trigger head near the cable core.
[0019] As another improvement of this application, pressure probes are fixedly connected to both the left and right inner walls of the oscillation chamber.

The input end of the oscillation status acquisition unit is connected to the pressure probe signal. The output end of the anti-adhesion treatment unit is also connected to the status abnormality warning unit. The output end of the status abnormality warning unit is connected to the signal output port installed on the cable maintenance control box.
[0020] In summary, by incorporating a vibration-based anti-attachment layer, electromagnetic sleeves, a release trigger seat, and an anti-attachment auxiliary system, the vibration-based anti-attachment effect on the waterproof cable body can be effectively achieved. By increasing the mobility of the waterproof cable body during underwater applications, the probability of adhering substances to the outer surface of the waterproof outer layer is reduced, thus minimizing the accumulation of such substances. On the one hand, this effectively prevents the impact of adhering substances on the physical structure and chemical properties of the waterproof cable body, ensuring its electrical performance and promoting its stability during long-term underwater applications. On the other hand, it effectively enhances the durability of the waterproof cable body in underwater environments, improving its environmental adaptability. By reducing maintenance frequency and increasing durability, the economic cost of underwater applications of the waterproof cable body is reduced, thereby promoting the economic benefits of underwater communication.

Detailed Implementation
[0035] The three embodiments of this application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0036] Implementation method 1:
[0037] Figures 1-12 show a high-stability waterproof cable, which has a cable maintenance control box 10 installed on the shore and a waterproof cable body 1 installed underwater and connected to the cable maintenance control box 10 via signal. The waterproof cable body 1 includes a cable core 13, a cable insulation layer 12 fixedly sleeved on the outside of the cable core 13, and a waterproof outer layer 11 installed on the outside of the cable insulation layer 12. Multiple vibration anti-attachment layers 2 connected end to end are provided between the waterproof outer layer 11 and the cable insulation layer 12. The outer end of the vibration anti-attachment layer 2 is fixedly connected to the waterproof outer layer 11, and the inner end is fixedly connected to the cable insulation layer 12. A vibration cavity 21 is opened in the vibration anti-attachment layer 2, and the inner wall of the vibration cavity 21 is coated with a magnetic shielding coating.
[0038] Multiple electromagnetic sleeves 3 are provided inside the oscillation chamber 21, and the electromagnetic action direction of the electromagnetic sleeves 3 is along the radial direction of the waterproof cable body 1. Multiple elastic auxiliary bags 4 are provided between two adjacent electromagnetic sleeves 3 and they cooperate with each other. The elastic auxiliary bags 4 are connected to the oscillation chamber 21. A release trigger post 5 is embedded in the inner wall of the elastic auxiliary bag 4 away from the cable core 13, and a release trigger seat 6 that cooperates with the release trigger post 5 is embedded in the inner wall of the elastic auxiliary bag 4 close to the cable core 13.
[0039] The cable maintenance control box 10 is equipped with an anti-adhesion auxiliary system, which includes an anti-adhesion processing unit. The input end of the anti-adhesion processing unit is connected to a cable parameter setting unit, an oscillation program setting unit, and a release contact sensing unit. The output end of the anti-adhesion processing unit is connected to an electromagnetic holding unit, an oscillation control unit, and a cable data output unit.
[0040] The input terminals of the cable parameter setting unit and the oscillation program setting unit are both connected to the signal input ports on the cable maintenance control box 10. The input terminal of the release contact sensing unit is connected to multiple release trigger seats 6. The output terminals of the electromagnetic holding unit and the oscillation control unit are both connected to the electromagnetic sleeve 3. The electromagnetic holding unit and the oscillation control unit are parallel control units, and the oscillation control unit has a higher priority than the cable holding unit. The output terminal of the cable data output unit is connected to the signal output port on the cable maintenance control box 10. Through the setting of the oscillation anti-adhesion layer 2, the electromagnetic sleeve 3, the release trigger seat 6, and the anti-adhesion auxiliary system, the waterproof cable body 1 can be effectively protected. The vibration-induced anti-adhesion effect increases the mobility of the waterproof cable body 1 during underwater applications, reducing the probability of adhering substances to the outer side of the waterproof outer layer 11 and minimizing their accumulation. This effectively prevents the adhering substances from affecting the physical structure and chemical properties of the waterproof cable body 1, ensuring its electrical performance and promoting its stability during long-term underwater applications. Furthermore, it enhances the durability and environmental adaptability of the waterproof cable body 1 in underwater environments. By reducing maintenance frequency and increasing durability, it lowers the economic cost of underwater applications and promotes the economic benefits of underwater communication.
[0041] Figures 1-5, 7-9, and 11 show that the electromagnetic sleeve 3 includes an inner electromagnetic auxiliary ring 32 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the oscillation chamber 21 near the cable core 13, and an outer elastic electromagnetic ring 31 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the oscillation chamber 21 away from the cable core 13, corresponding to the inner electromagnetic auxiliary ring 32. The output terminals of the electromagnetic holding unit and the oscillation control unit are respectively connected to the outer elastic electromagnetic ring 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary ring 32. The cooperation between the outer elastic electromagnetic ring 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary ring 32 can, on the one hand, increase the compressive strength of the waterproof cable body 1 during underwater application, maintain the semi-contraction effect of the waterproof outer layer 11, and reduce the penetration of external moisture. On the other hand, it can increase the amplitude of oscillation, promote the dynamic amplitude of the waterproof cable body 1, further reduce the retention of adhering substances on the outer end of the waterproof outer layer 11, ensure the cleanliness of the outer end of the waterproof outer layer 11 during underwater application, thereby reducing the damage caused by adhering substances to the waterproof cable body 1 and increasing the stability of the waterproof cable body 1.
[0042] Figures 1-5, 7-9, and 11 show that the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 consists of multiple elastic arc plates and multiple outer electromagnetic arc plates. The elastic arc plates and outer electromagnetic arc plates are spaced apart and are fixedly connected end to end to form a ring that cooperates with the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32. The arrangement of the elastic arc plates and outer electromagnetic arc plates can effectively increase the radial deformation range of the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31, ensuring its electromagnetic function while reducing mechanical damage caused by radial deformation and extending its service life.
[0043] Figures 6, 10, and 12 show that the release trigger seat 6 has a guide groove at the end away from the cable core 13, which cooperates with the release trigger post 5. A trigger conductive core 61 is embedded in the inner wall of the guide groove near the cable core 13. The input end of the release contact sensing unit is connected to multiple trigger conductive cores 61. Figures 6, 10, and 12 show that a conductive insert that cooperates with the trigger conductive core 61 is embedded at the end of the release trigger post 5 near the cable core 13. The arrangement of the release trigger post 5, conductive insert, and trigger conductive core 61 can effectively realize the triggering function at the contraction limit position of the oscillation anti-attachment layer 2 during oscillation. While realizing the contraction release function of the oscillation anti-attachment layer 2, it can also effectively reduce the damage to the oscillation anti-attachment layer 2 caused by continuous contraction. It can also protect the cable insulation layer 12 and the cable core 13, avoiding damage to them by contraction force, and further ensuring the safety and stability of the operation of the waterproof cable body 1.
[0044] Figures 3, 5, 7, 9, and 11 show that the oscillation chamber 21 is filled with insulating filler, which is an inert gas, and the filling saturation is 45%–60%. The insulating filler effectively provides insulation and isolation when the waterproof outer layer 11 or the cable insulation layer 12 is damaged, further increasing the operational safety of the waterproof cable body 1. It also effectively ensures the pressure-bearing effect of the oscillation anti-adhesion layer 2, improving the compressive strength of the waterproof cable body 1. Furthermore, within the specified filling saturation, it satisfies the oscillation deformation of the oscillation anti-adhesion layer 2 without hindering the oscillation deformation. The outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32 do not generate magnetic effects during the laying of the waterproof cable body 1 because no power is applied. Thus, under the aforementioned filling saturation effect, the flexibility of the waterproof cable body 1 is effectively maintained, reducing the difficulty of laying. During the application of the waterproof cable body 1, due to the power application, the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32 can generate oscillation control and also generate a semi-contraction holding effect, improving the compressive strength of the waterproof cable body 1 and promoting the applicability of the waterproof cable body 1 to the underwater environment.
[0045] Figures 1-5, 7-9, and 11 show that the elastic auxiliary bag 4 is fixedly connected between the inner wall of the oscillation chamber 21 on the side near the cable core 13 and the inner wall on the side away from the cable core 13. A compression spring 41 is fixedly connected inside the elastic auxiliary bag 4 and sleeved on the outside of the release trigger post 5 and the release trigger seat 6. The setting of the compression spring 41 can further increase the compressive strength of the oscillation anti-attachment layer 2, and can also maintain the semi-contraction effect of the oscillation anti-attachment layer 2 when the waterproof cable body 1 is in a normal state, reduce the energy loss of the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32, and reduce the cost of the waterproof cable body 1 for underwater application.
[0046] Figures 1-12 show that after the waterproof cable body 1 is laid underwater, technicians input relevant parameter data about the laying of the waterproof cable body 1 into the cable parameter setting unit through the signal interface of the cable maintenance control box 10. This data includes the wire diameter, laying length, laying route, laying depth, and underwater environment of the waterproof cable body 1. The cable parameter setting unit then transmits this underwater laying data to the anti-adhesion processing unit. At the same time, technicians also input the vibration data of the waterproof cable body 1 during underwater application, such as the vibration period and vibration frequency, into the vibration program setting unit through the signal interface of the cable maintenance control box 10. The vibration program setting unit transmits this vibration data to the anti-adhesion processing unit. The anti-adhesion processing unit receives this basic data and analyzes, processes, and records it for use.
[0047] When the waterproof cable body 1 is energized and operating normally through the cable maintenance control box 10, the anti-adhesion treatment unit first inputs an electromagnetic holding command to the electromagnetic holding unit, causing the electromagnetic holding unit to input a constant current into the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32. This causes the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32 to generate an electromagnetic attraction between opposite poles, and then generate an adsorption effect that acts on the oscillation cavity 21 of the oscillating anti-adhesion layer 2. This causes the oscillating anti-adhesion layer 2 to drive the waterproof outer layer 11 to undergo a semi-contraction deformation, and the elastic auxiliary bag 4 and the compression spring 41 to contract synchronously. At this time, the release trigger post 5 does not contact the trigger conduction core 61. On the one hand, this can increase the tightness of the gaps between the materials of the waterproof outer layer 11 and promote its waterproof effect. On the other hand, when the waterproof cable body 1 is laid and is in normal operation, the diameter reduction increases the compressive strength of the waterproof cable body 1 and reduces its resistance to external forces, thereby enabling it to cope with external pressure damage generated in the underwater environment and promoting the durability of the waterproof cable body 1.
[0048] Based on the received data, the anti-adhesion processing unit periodically sends an oscillation command to the oscillation control unit according to the oscillation period and frequency transmitted by the oscillation program setting unit. Since the oscillation control unit has a higher priority than the electromagnetic holding unit, when the oscillation control unit exerts a control effect on the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32, the electromagnetic holding unit actively remains closed, ceasing its semi-contraction holding effect on the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32. When the electromagnetic holding unit actively closes, it de-energizes the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32, causing them to lose their magnetic force. Therefore, under the elastic recovery action of the waterproof outer layer 11, the oscillation anti-adhesion layer 2, and the compression spring 41, the waterproof outer layer 11 and the oscillation anti-adhesion layer 2 undergo elastic recovery expansion deformation. Then, the oscillation control unit introduces a large current into the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32, causing the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32 to generate an electromagnetic attraction between opposite poles. Under the suction effect, the oscillating cavity 21 causes the waterproof outer layer 11 to undergo complete shrinkage deformation through the oscillating anti-adhesion layer 2. At this time, the elastic auxiliary bag 4 shrinks synchronously under the action of the oscillating cavity 21. The release trigger post 5 continuously approaches the release trigger seat 6 under the shrinkage action of the elastic auxiliary bag 4, and its lower conductive insert abuts against the trigger conductive core 61, generating a conductive effect on the trigger conductive core 61 and sending a trigger signal to the release contact sensing unit. The release contact sensing unit sends trigger data to the anti-adhesion processing unit, and the anti-adhesion processing... After receiving the trigger signal data of all the trigger conduction cores 61 in a single oscillation cavity 21, the unit sends a second oscillation command to the oscillation control unit, which directly inputs a momentarily increased current into the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32, and adjusts the current direction to be different from that of the first oscillation command, so that a repulsive electromagnetic force is generated between the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32, and the electromagnetic force increases momentarily, causing the oscillation anti-attachment layer 2 and the waterproof outer layer 11 to undergo a momentary elastic expansion deformation.Then, the anti-adhesion treatment unit repeatedly inputs a primary oscillation command and a secondary oscillation command into the oscillation control unit according to the set oscillation frequency. This causes the waterproof cable body 1 to undergo repeated diameter contraction and expansion deformation during this process, forming a vibration cycle. This effectively promotes the mobility of the waterproof cable body 1 during underwater applications, effectively shaking off the adhering substances originally attached to the outer end of the waterproof outer layer 11. It can also drive away active adhering substances through oscillation. On the one hand, it can effectively avoid the influence of adhering substances on the physical structure and chemical properties of the waterproof cable body 1, effectively ensuring the electrical performance of the waterproof cable body 1, and effectively promoting the stability of the waterproof cable body 1 in long-term underwater applications. On the other hand, it can effectively promote the durability of the waterproof cable body 1 in the underwater environment, promote its environmental adaptability, reduce the maintenance frequency and increase durability, reduce the economic cost of the waterproof cable body 1 in underwater applications, and promote the economic benefits of underwater communication.
[0049] Finally, after the anti-adhesion treatment unit controls the oscillation control unit to generate oscillation, the electromagnetic holding unit automatically re-acts on the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32, inputting a constant current into them. This causes the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32 to generate an electromagnetic attraction between opposite poles, and then generate an adsorption effect that brings them closer together. This adsorption effect acts on the oscillation cavity 21 of the oscillation anti-adhesion layer 2, causing the oscillation anti-adhesion layer 2 to drive the waterproof outer layer 11 to undergo a semi-contraction deformation, continuing to maintain the waterproof effect and pressure resistance of the waterproof cable body 1, effectively coping with the complex underwater environment. Furthermore, the parallel arrangement of the electromagnetic holding unit and the oscillation control unit effectively reduces the control difficulty of the anti-adhesion treatment unit, reduces the computational burden, and improves the effectiveness of the oscillation.
[0050] During the continuous application of the waterproof cable body 1, the anti-adhesion treatment unit sends full data about its control process to the cable data output unit according to the set cycle. Then, the cable data output unit outputs data to technicians and maintenance personnel through the signal output port of the cable maintenance control box 10, so that technicians and maintenance personnel can observe the underwater condition of the waterproof cable body 1 in a timely manner, continuously improve the anti-adhesion auxiliary system, ensure the effectiveness of maintenance of the waterproof cable body 1, and promote the safety and stability of the application of the waterproof cable body 1.
[0051] The second implementation method:
[0052] Figures 1-12 show a high-stability waterproof cable. As a replacement for the method of releasing the trigger post 5 to trigger the release trigger seat 6 in the first embodiment, an elastic protruding cap 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the guide groove near the cable core 13, which is located on the outside of the trigger conduction core 61. A release trigger head 71 is fixedly connected to one end of the release trigger head 71 near the cable core 13, which cooperates with the trigger conduction core 61. The setting of the elastic protruding cap 7 and the release trigger head 71 can convert and transmit the triggering action of the release trigger post 5 on the release trigger seat 6, and can also isolate the triggering position of the trigger conduction core 61, reduce triggering error, and avoid accidental triggering caused by water seepage damage to the waterproof outer layer 11 and the vibration anti-adhesion layer 2, effectively ensuring the effectiveness and accuracy of the anti-adhesion effect.
[0053] Figures 1-12 show that when the oscillation chamber 21 undergoes a contraction deformation under the action of a single oscillation command from the oscillation control unit, the outer elastic electromagnetic coil 31 and the inner electromagnetic auxiliary coil 32 will cause the elastic auxiliary bag 4 and the compression spring 41 to undergo synchronous contraction deformation. Then, the release trigger post 5 extends into the release trigger seat 6 and exerts a squeezing effect on the elastic protruding cap 7, causing the elastic protruding cap 7 to deform towards the side closer to the cable core 13. This, in turn, causes the release trigger head 71 to abut against the trigger conduction core 61, completing the triggering action of the trigger conduction core 61. This allows the release contact sensing unit to effectively receive the trigger signal from the trigger conduction core 61. The isolation effect of the elastic protruding cap 7 and the conversion triggering effect of the release trigger head 71 can effectively ensure that the trigger conduction core 61 can only be triggered by the squeezing of the release trigger post 5, and will not be falsely triggered due to humidity or other reasons. This ensures the data accuracy of the release contact sensing unit, avoids abnormal judgment of the anti-adhesion processing unit due to false triggering, and promotes the effectiveness and accuracy of the anti-adhesion processing unit in controlling the oscillation action.
[0054] The third implementation method:
[0055] Figures 1-12 illustrate a high-stability waterproof cable. As a functional improvement in the first and second embodiments, and with multiple specifications to meet different market demands, pressure probes are fixedly connected to the left and right inner walls of the vibration chamber 21. The input end of the anti-adhesion treatment unit is also connected to a vibration state acquisition unit, whose input end is connected to the pressure probe signal. The output end of the anti-adhesion treatment unit is also connected to a status anomaly warning unit, whose output end is connected to the signal output port on the cable maintenance control box 10. The setting of the pressure probe and the vibration state acquisition unit can effectively realize the data acquisition function of the vibration anti-adhesion layer 2, which can assist the anti-adhesion treatment unit in judging and analyzing the status of the waterproof cable body 1, play an effective monitoring role, and can also send abnormal data to the maintenance personnel on shore in a timely manner through the cable maintenance control box 10, which can improve the efficiency of emergency response by maintenance personnel, improve the maintenance of the waterproof cable body 1, and further realize the stability and safety of the operation of the waterproof cable body 1.
[0056] Figures 1-5, 7-9, and 11 show multiple elastic auxiliary bags 4 evenly distributed along the circumference of the waterproof cable body 1 between two adjacent electromagnetic sleeves 3. The included angle between any two adjacent elastic auxiliary bags 4 evenly distributed along the circumference of the waterproof cable body 1 is any one of 30°, 60°, or 120°. By limiting the angle, the stability and effectiveness of the coordinated triggering of the release trigger post 5 and release trigger seat 6 within the elastic auxiliary bag 4 can be effectively guaranteed. It can also effectively prevent false triggering of the waterproof cable body 1 in a non-oscillating state. This can be effectively achieved by increasing the interval offset. This avoids the false triggering of the release resistance sensing unit due to external pressure, increasing the safety and effectiveness of oscillation control. It can also cooperate with the oscillation state acquisition unit to assist the anti-adhesion processing unit in judging the abnormal state of the waterproof cable body 1, and improve the accuracy of abnormal handling. Therefore, when the waterproof cable body 1 is subjected to external force, such as being pressed on the surface by an external object or being bitten by a large fish, it will not trigger the full conduction of the conductive core 61 under these pressures, causing the anti-adhesion processing unit to receive a trigger signal and make a misjudgment or wrong judgment, resulting in oscillation loss of control or subsequent poor control.
[0057] Figures 1-12 show that when the waterproof cable body 1 is in a semi-retracted state, the pressure probe in the oscillation chamber 21 transmits the pressure data it detects to the oscillation state acquisition unit. The oscillation state acquisition unit transmits the pressure data to the anti-adhesion processing unit. The anti-adhesion processing unit can determine the state of the waterproof cable body 1 at this time based on the magnitude of the pressure data.
[0058] When pressure increases, it indicates that the waterproof cable body 1 has been subjected to external force. The external force can be addressed by controlling the vibration control unit, and the pressure data is then repeatedly analyzed to determine the effectiveness of the vibration in handling the pressure. If the external force persists, abnormal status data is transmitted to the abnormal status warning unit. This unit then sends an abnormal signal to technicians and maintenance personnel through the signal output port of the cable maintenance control box 10, enabling them to promptly address and maintain the abnormal state and ensure the stability of the waterproof cable body 1. When the external force disappears and the pressure data returns to normal, the abnormal data is simultaneously output to the cable data output unit, without sending a separate signal to the abnormal status warning unit. When the pressure data gradually decreases, it indicates that the waterproof outer layer 11 and the vibration-resistant anti-adhesion layer 2 have been damaged by external force. Abnormal status data is then transmitted to the abnormal status warning unit, which sends an abnormal signal to technicians and maintenance personnel through the signal output port of the cable maintenance control box 10, enabling them to promptly address and maintain the abnormal state and ensure the stability of the waterproof cable body 1.
[0059] When the pressure decreases, it indicates that the waterproof outer layer 11 and the shock-absorbing layer 2 have been damaged. The abnormal status data is then transmitted to the abnormal status warning unit, which sends an abnormal signal to the technicians and maintenance personnel through the signal output port of the cable maintenance control box 10. This allows the technicians and maintenance personnel to handle and maintain the abnormal status in a timely manner, ensuring the stability of the operation of the waterproof cable body 1.
[0060] When the waterproof cable body 1 is in a state of vibration, the pressure probe in the vibration chamber 21 will transmit the pressure change data it detects to the vibration state acquisition unit. The vibration state acquisition unit will transmit the pressure data to the anti-adhesion processing unit. The anti-adhesion processing unit can determine the effectiveness of the vibration of the waterproof cable body 1 at this time based on the change of pressure data.
[0061] If the pressure data fluctuations exceed the set value, and the maximum pressure data decreases, it indicates that the contraction of the oscillation chamber 21 is abnormal; if the minimum pressure data increases, it indicates that the elastic expansion of the oscillation chamber 21 is abnormal; if the pressure data remains unchanged or the fluctuation is small, it indicates that the waterproof cable body 1 and the anti-adhesion layer 2 are damaged. The anti-adhesion processing unit transmits the abnormal status data to the abnormal status warning unit, which then sends an abnormal signal to technicians and maintenance personnel through the signal output port of the cable maintenance control box 10. This allows technicians and maintenance personnel to handle and maintain the abnormal status in a timely manner, ensuring the stability of the operation of the waterproof cable body 1, improving the efficiency of emergency response by maintenance personnel, enhancing the maintainability of the waterproof cable body 1, and further realizing the stability and safety of the operation of the waterproof cable body 1.
[0062] In light of current practical needs, the above-described embodiments adopted in this application are not limited to these. Any changes made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the concept of this application still fall within the protection scope of this invention.
