[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention discloses a technical solution for a fire-resistant B1-level CAN BUS cable.

[0021] The present invention provides a fire-resistant B1-level CAN BUS cable, comprising a conductor 1, an insulating layer 2, a single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape 3, a filling core 4, a low-smoke halogen-free tape 5, an aluminum foil shielding layer 6, a braided shielding layer 7, a single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape 8, and a sheath layer 9; The insulating layer 2 wraps the conductor 1 as an insulating wire core, and the surfaces of several insulating wire cores are respectively wrapped with single-sided glass fiber phlogopite mica tapes 3; The filling core 4 is placed in an area surrounded by a plurality of insulating cores, and the plurality of insulating cores and one filling core are twisted into a cable, and a low-smoke zero-halogen tape 5 is wrapped around the outside of the twisted cable; The low-smoke zero-halogen tape 5 is longitudinally wrapped with an aluminum foil shielding layer 6, the aluminum foil shielding layer is covered with a braided shielding layer 7 to form a combined shielding layer, the combined shielding layer is wrapped with a single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape 8, and a sheath layer 9 is arranged outside the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape.

[0024] Furthermore, the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape 3 is a composite of a glass fiber reinforcement layer and a refractory mica powder, the content of the refractory mica powder in the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape is not less than 70%, the tensile strength of the glass fiber reinforcement layer is not less than 130N / cm, and the thickness of the mica tape is controlled to be 0.14mm when the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape (3) is wrapped, the wrapping tension is 6~10N, and the wrapping overlap rate is 30%~40%; The material and thickness of the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape 8 are the same as those of the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape 3. The width of the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape 8 is greater than that of the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape 3. The wrapping tension of the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape 8 is 9-13N, and the wrapping overlap rate is 35%-40%.

[0025] Furthermore, the filling core 4 is extruded from a low-density polyethylene material at a temperature of 160-220° C., and the diameter and roundness of the filling core are strictly controlled.

[0026] Furthermore, the composition of the low-smoke halogen-free tape 5 includes glass fiber filaments, which have the characteristics of non-combustion and non-smoke generation, and are used to protect the internal structure of the cable core. During production, the tape thickness is controlled to be 0.08mm, the wrapping tension is 10~12N, and the wrapping overlap rate is 25~30%.

[0027] Furthermore, the aluminum foil shielding layer 6 uses single-sided aluminum foil with a thickness of no more than 0.065 mm and an aluminum foil overlap rate of no less than 15%. When wrapping the aluminum foil, wrinkles, warping and other undesirable phenomena should be avoided.

[0028] Furthermore, the braided shielding layer 7 is woven with tinned copper wire, the diameter of the braided single wire is not greater than 0.12 mm, the braiding pitch is not greater than 25 mm, the braiding density is not less than 85%, the braiding process should avoid wire skipping, and the joints should be smooth when the single wires are connected.

[0029] Furthermore, the sheath layer 9 is made of low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant polyolefin material that meets B1 combustion requirements, the sheath layer thickness is 1.0mm~1.4mm, the thickness of the thinnest point of the sheath layer is not less than 0.8mm, the extrusion temperature of the sheath layer material is 151~183℃, and the concentricity of the sheath layer is not less than 75%.

[0030] Furthermore, the number of the insulated cores is an even number.

[0031] Key points of the present invention: 1. The cable meets the flame temperature of 750℃ and the duration of 90 minutes. The refractory material selection and structural design: Since the cable insulation material itself is flammable, the insulation material will burn or gasify under continuous flame conditions, resulting in exposed conductors, and then short circuit problems, affecting the use of the cable. In order to solve the above problems, the present invention patent first proposed to wrap the insulation surface with a single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape, and the content of refractory mica powder in the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape was controlled to be ≥70%, and the tensile strength of the glass fiber reinforcement layer was controlled to be ≥130N / cm. When the single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape was wrapped, the tape thickness was controlled to be 0.14mm, the wrapping tension was controlled to be 6~10N, and the wrapping overlap rate was controlled to be 30%~40%. The single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape was wrapped around the surfaces of the four-wire insulated cores respectively. Since the refractory mica material in the mica tape has a high temperature resistance grade, the temperature resistance can reach above 800℃. At the same time, the glass fiber reinforcement layer can ensure the integrity of the tape layer and prevent the refractory mica powder from falling off, thereby ensuring that the conductors can still be isolated after the insulating material burns or gasifies. At a flame temperature of 750℃, after burning continuously for 90 minutes, the conductor will not short-circuit.

[0032] 2. Material selection and structural design of cables that meet B1 grade combustion requirements: B1 level combustion is to assess the flame spread height of the cable within 20 minutes of fire supply time, the peak value of heat release rate, the total amount of heat release within 1200 seconds of fire, the combustion growth rate index, the peak value of smoke production rate, and the total amount of smoke production within 1200 seconds when the flame torch power is 20.5kW. To solve the above problems, low-smoke halogen-free tape is used for wrapping after the four-core insulated cores are twisted into a cable. The main component of this material is glass fiber yarn, which has the characteristics of non-combustion and non-smoke production. It is used to protect the internal structure of the cable core. During production, the tape thickness is controlled to 0.08mm, the tape wrapping tension is controlled to 10~12N, and the wrapping coverage rate is controlled to 25~30%. For the first time, it is proposed to wrap the aluminum foil + tinned copper wire braided composite shielding layer with a single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape of the same material as scheme "1". The wrapping tension is controlled to 9~13N during wrapping, and the wrapping coverage rate is controlled to 35~40%. Because the material has good fire resistance and good structural retention performance, it can isolate the flame or heat from transferring to the inside of the cable core to the maximum extent, thereby effectively reducing the heat release rate, smoke production rate and total smoke production of the internal material of the cable core; the sheath layer adopts low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant polyolefin material that meets the B1 combustion requirements. The material has the characteristics of low heat generation, low smoke production, and low flame retardancy. At the same time, after combustion, the material will partially crust to reduce the burning of the flame on the inside of the cable core. The sheath layer is extruded by extrusion to control the thickness of the sheath layer between 1.0mm and 1.4mm.

[0033] The finished cable meets the B1 combustion grade requirements when the flame torch power is 20.5kW and the flame supply time is within 20 minutes. The details are as follows: Flame spread 0.69m≤1.5m, peak heat release rate 21kW≤30kW, total heat release within 1200 seconds of fire 6kW≤15kW, combustion growth rate index 68W / s≤150 W / s, peak smoke generation rate 0.07m 2 / s≤0.25m 2 / s, total smoke production in 1200 seconds 40m 2 ≤50m 2 .

[0034] The present invention solves the problems that the existing CAN BUS bus cable does not have good fire resistance, generates a lot of heat and smoke when burning, and is easy to spread flames. The present invention wraps a single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape around the surface of the insulating core, thereby ensuring that after the insulating material on the surface of the insulating core burns the exposed conductor, the conductor core is isolated, thereby avoiding the problem of short circuit; the present invention wraps a single-sided glass fiber phlogopite tape around the surface of the combined shielding layer, which can effectively block the flame from burning inward, thereby effectively protecting the internal structure of the cable, and plays a good protective role in reducing the total amount of heat and smoke, and reducing the heat and smoke rate; the sheath material of the cable is changed to a low-smoke, halogen-free, flame-retardant polyolefin material that meets the B1 combustion requirements, and has the characteristics of low heat generation, low smoke generation, and not easy to spread flames, so as to reduce the burning of the flame inside the cable core. Thereby ensuring that during the combustion process of the entire cable, its spread of flame height, total heat release and rate, total smoke release and rate, etc. meet the B1 combustion grade requirements Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein.
