Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cables, and in particular to a cable with high heat dissipation efficiency. Background Art
[0002] Cables are essential transmission equipment in power transmission and are widely used in life. Cables include an outer PVC protective layer and an internal cable core. Cables tend to generate a lot of heat under high load. If the heat cannot be dissipated in time, this will affect the transmission of the cable, accelerate cable aging, and reduce its service life. Therefore, the cable is required to have good heat dissipation performance. However, the cables in the prior art have poor heat dissipation and poor compressive protection performance. Therefore, a cable with high heat dissipation efficiency is needed.
[0003] In the prior art, a Chinese invention patent with publication number CN106448900A discloses a high-efficiency heat dissipation composite cable, which includes an outermost PVC protective layer and at least two cable cores arranged in the PVC protective layer. Two heat sinks are integrally injection molded on both sides of the PVC protective layer, and the heat sink has a cavity for accommodating cooling water; both ends of the PVC protective layer are provided with a heat dissipation cavity, the bottom surface of the heat dissipation cavity is a circular arc convex surface, and a corresponding assembly part is provided on the heat sink facing the circular arc convex surface, and the heat sink is partially embedded in the heat dissipation cavity, and the assembly part of the heat sink is meshed with the circular arc convex surface of the bottom surface of the heat dissipation cavity. The structure of the present invention is simple, the cable core is vacated and erected inside the PVC protective layer, and one end face of the cable core is in contact with the heat sink, which can quickly dissipate heat through the water source inside the heat sink, and absorb heat through the heat sink, so the heat dissipation is very good, and it has better compressive resistance and shear resistance than ordinary cables. However, the contact area between the cable core and the heat sink of this type of high-efficiency heat dissipation composite cable is too small, and there is a problem of insufficient cooling efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0009] The deformation component is connected to the inner walls of the two second heat exchange layers. When the temperature in the heat dissipation cavity is higher than the preset temperature, the deformation component contracts to pull the two second heat exchange layers closer to each other, thereby increasing the distance between the side walls of two adjacent heat dissipation units.

[0014] Furthermore, the first heat exchange layer and the second heat exchange layer are made of elastic metal material.
[0015] Furthermore, the cooling medium includes air, coolant or water mist.
[0016] Furthermore, the cooling medium in two adjacent heat dissipation chambers flows in opposite directions.
[0017] Furthermore, the inner wall of the first heat exchange layer and the inner wall of the second heat exchange layer are both provided with fins, and the fins are extended along the axial direction of the cable core.

[0021] Moreover, when the temperature in the heat dissipation cavity of the heat dissipation unit is higher than the preset temperature, the deformation component in the heat dissipation cavity contracts to pull the two second heat exchange layers closer to each other, thereby increasing the distance between the side walls of the two adjacent heat dissipation units, thereby increasing the contact area between the outer wall of the second heat exchange layer and the outside air, so that the cable has both cooling medium heat dissipation and outside air heat dissipation. Compared with traditional closed cables, the heat dissipation effect is significant and the heat dissipation efficiency is high. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a cable with high heat dissipation efficiency, comprising a cable core 1, the cable core 1 is wrapped with an insulating heat-conducting layer 2, and the insulating heat-conducting layer 2 is wrapped with a heat dissipation layer. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the heat dissipation layer includes a plurality of heat dissipation units 3 uniformly distributed along the circumference of the insulating heat-conducting layer 2, and the side walls of adjacent heat dissipation units 3 are arranged in contact with each other, so that the plurality of heat dissipation units 3 form a closed ring, thereby protecting the cable core 1.
[0035] like Figure 3 As shown, the heat dissipation unit 3 includes a heat dissipation cavity, deformation components 4 arranged in the heat dissipation cavity at intervals along the extension direction of the heat dissipation cavity, and a cooling medium flowing along the extension direction of the heat dissipation cavity. The heat dissipation cavity is arranged to extend axially along the cable core 1.
[0036] The heat dissipation cavity is formed by a first heat exchange layer 5, a second heat exchange layer 6 disposed opposite to each other on both sides of the first heat exchange layer 5, and an outer layer 7 connected between the tops of the two second heat exchange layers 6. The outer layer 7 is made of a flexible material and can be deformed. The outer layer 7 can be made of a flexible silicone material. The outer wall of the first heat exchange layer 5 is closely fitted with the outer wall of the insulating heat conductive layer 2, and is used to conduct the heat generated by the cable core 1 when transmitting electricity into the heat dissipation cavity.
[0037] In this embodiment, the cooling medium can be air, coolant or water mist, and the coolant can be water. Through the corresponding equipment of the peripheral device, the cooling medium flows in the heat dissipation cavity, thereby taking away the heat in the heat dissipation cavity and realizing the cooling of the cable core 1. In addition, in order to make the cooling effect on the cable core 1 more uniform, the cooling medium in the two adjacent heat dissipation cavities flows in opposite directions, that is, the cooling medium in the two adjacent heat dissipation cavities flows in opposite directions.
[0038] The deformation component 4 is connected to the inner walls of the two second heat exchange layers 6. When the temperature in the heat dissipation cavity is higher than the preset temperature, the deformation component 4 contracts to pull the two second heat exchange layers 6 closer to each other, so that the distance between the side walls of the two adjacent heat dissipation units 3 is increased, that is, the contact area between the outer walls of the second heat exchange layers 6 on both sides of the heat dissipation unit 3 and the outside air is increased, thereby improving the air heat dissipation effect.
[0039] In this embodiment, the deformation component 4 can be made of nickel-titanium alloy, and the deformation temperature of nickel-titanium alloy is generally between 50°C and 100°C. The deformation component 4 can adopt a rod-shaped structure or a Y-shaped structure. If the deformation component 4 is a rod-shaped structure, the two ends of the deformation component 4 are respectively connected to the top of the two inner walls of the second heat exchange layer 6. If the deformation component 4 is a Y-shaped structure, the two ends of the top of the deformation component 4 are respectively connected to the top of the two inner walls of the second heat exchange layer 6, and the bottom is connected to the first heat exchange layer 5.
[0040] For example, since the heat dissipation efficiency of the cooling medium is relatively fixed, when the power load transmitted by the cable core 1 increases within a period of time, the temperature of the cable core 1 rises rapidly, causing the temperature in the heat dissipation cavity to rise to a temperature higher than the deformation temperature of the nickel-titanium alloy, for example, higher than 50°C. At this time, the deformation component 4 will shrink, thereby pulling the two second heat exchange layers 6 closer to each other, thereby increasing the distance between the side walls of the two adjacent heat dissipation units 3, and even increasing the contact area between the outer walls of the second heat exchange layers 6 on both sides of the heat dissipation unit 3 and the outside air, thereby improving the air heat dissipation effect and increasing the heat dissipation efficiency of the cable.
[0041] When the temperature in the heat dissipation cavity drops below the deformation temperature of the nickel-titanium alloy, the deformation component 4 stretches and recovers again, releasing the pulling on the second heat exchange layers 6 on both sides, and the second heat exchange layers 6 return to their initial state, that is, the side walls of the adjacent heat dissipation units 3 are again fitted together.
[0042] In this embodiment, the first heat exchange layer 5 and the second heat exchange layer 6 are integrally formed. The first heat exchange layer 5 and the second heat exchange layer 6 are made of elastic metal material, for example, copper alloy or aluminum alloy.
[0043] Furthermore, in order to increase the heat exchange area, the inner wall of the first heat exchange layer 5 and the inner wall of the second heat exchange layer 6 are both provided with fins 8 , and the fins 8 are extended along the axial direction of the cable core 1 .
[0044] The surface of the outer sheath 7 is also provided with a wear-resistant layer 9 for enhancing the wear resistance of the cable, improving the anti-wear performance, and protecting the outer sheath 7 .
[0045] In summary, the cable provided in the present application has a heat dissipation unit that forms a closed ring around the cable core, which significantly increases the contact area with the outer surface of the cable core and has higher heat dissipation efficiency.
[0046] Moreover, when the temperature in the heat dissipation cavity of the heat dissipation unit is higher than the preset temperature, the deformation component in the heat dissipation cavity contracts to pull the two second heat exchange layers closer to each other, thereby increasing the distance between the side walls of the two adjacent heat dissipation units, thereby increasing the contact area between the outer wall of the second heat exchange layer and the outside air, so that the cable has both cooling medium heat dissipation and outside air heat dissipation. Compared with traditional closed cables, the heat dissipation effect is significant and the heat dissipation efficiency is high.
[0047] Finally, it should be noted that the various technical features of the technical solution of the present application can be combined arbitrarily. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the various technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of the present application.
[0048] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same.
