AI Technical Summary
When existing non-combustible cables foam and cure under flame attack, there is a lack of a movable cavity inside, causing the protective layer to deform and squeeze the cable, affecting the normal transmission rate.
A non-combustible cable that is self-extinguishing without fire is designed, and an outer sheath of halogen-free low-smoke polyolefin is used for external protection. An assembly port and a port are provided in the expansion refractory sleeve as reserved foaming force ports. These structures are used to prevent the expansion refractory sleeve from expanding outward after foaming, and then squeeze it inward through the outer sheath limit, reducing the compression of the cable.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cables, and more particularly to a non-flammable cable which can extinguish itself when away from fire. Background Art
[0002] When a fire occurs, non-combustible cables will not burn like ordinary cables and become a medium for the spread of fire. They can effectively limit the flames to a local area, prevent the fire from spreading rapidly along the cable line, and reduce the harm of the fire to buildings, equipment and personnel. For the power supply circuits of key emergency facilities such as fire-fighting equipment, emergency lighting, evacuation signs, and fire alarm systems, non-combustible cables that are self-extinguishing when away from the fire can maintain normal power supply during the fire, ensuring that these equipment can play a role at critical moments and provide necessary support and guarantee for personnel evacuation and rescue work.
[0003] The existing non-combustible cables use an expanded fire-resistant layer outside the aluminum metal sheath, which will foam and solidify under the attack of flames. After solidification, it will isolate the internal cable from damage by external flames. However, the existing structure does not have an effective active cavity inside during the foaming process, which causes the outer protective layer to expand and deform, which is easy to squeeze the internal cable, causing bending and affecting the normal transmission rate of the cable. In view of this, we propose a non-combustible cable that self-extinguishes when away from fire. Summary of the invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, meet actual needs, and provide a non-flammable cable that is self-extinguishing when away from fire, so as to solve the technical problems that the current cable protective layer does not have a movable cavity, foaming easily causes the protective layer to deform and squeeze the cable, and affects the normal transmission rate of the cable.
[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a non-combustible cable that extinguishes itself when away from fire, comprising a cable, an expansion fire-resistant sleeve and a retaining frame, a socket is provided in the middle of the interior of the expansion fire-resistant sleeve, and a ring array of built-in grooves are distributed on the inner wall of the socket, an assembly port is provided in the outer ring array of the expansion fire-resistant sleeve, a through port is provided at the bottom of the assembly port, and the through port is connected to the socket, an ammonium chloride wafer is embedded and installed in the assembly port, the retaining frame is plugged into the socket, an outer sheath is installed on the outer side of the expansion fire-resistant sleeve, and the cable is installed inside the expansion fire-resistant sleeve.
[0006] When the present invention is eroded by flame, the outer sheath of halogen-free low-smoke polyolefin is used for external protection. When the flame burns, due to the material reason, the outer sheath automatically extinguishes after leaving the fire. At the same time, the inner expansion refractory sleeve is foamed and solidified after being heated. The expansion refractory sleeve is provided with an assembly port and a through port. The assembly port and the through port are reserved for foaming stress-bearing ports. When the expansion refractory sleeve is foamed, an extrusion force is generated on the cavity inside of the assembly port and the through port, so as to prevent the expansion refractory sleeve from expanding outwards after foaming and being squeezed inwards by the outer sheath, causing the internal cable to bend and affecting the transmission rate. Through the above-mentioned reserved deformation after foaming, the expansion refractory sleeve is prevented from expanding outwards after foaming and being squeezed inwards by the outer sheath. The internal force of the cavity is reduced to avoid internal deformation and oppression of the cable, ensuring the normal signal transmission rate. The ammonium chloride chip is embedded and installed inside the assembly port. The assembly port is designed to be concave inward with a smaller outer opening. When the expansion refractory sleeve is heated and foamed and solidified, the space of the assembly port is gradually reduced and then an extrusion force is generated. The extrusion breaks the ammonium chloride chip. The structure of the ammonium chloride chip is stable. When it is extruded and broken, the crystal structure is destroyed, and an endothermic decomposition reaction will occur. The influence of heat transfer on the cable is reduced by heat absorption, further protecting the internal cable and ensuring its normal operation.
[0007] Preferably, the built-in grooves and the side grooves are both designed to be arc-shaped structures, and the corresponding built-in grooves and side grooves are spliced to form a circular cavity, and the cable is located in the circular cavity.
[0008] Preferably, the assembly opening and the built-in groove are staggered, the assembly opening is of an inwardly concave design with an outer opening gathered inwardly, and the assembly opening is adapted to the ammonium chloride wafer.
[0009] Preferably, an isolation sleeve is provided on the outer side of the cable, and notches are formed on the isolation sleeve, and the notches are distributed in a spiral shape.
[0010] Preferably, the isolation sleeve is a cross-linked isolation sleeve, and the isolation sleeve is made of a polyethylene material modified by a cross-linking reaction.
[0011] Preferably, the expansion refractory sleeve is made of halogen-free low-smoke polyolefin material, and the assembly openings opened on the outer side of the expansion refractory sleeve are equidistantly distributed in the longitudinal direction.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] 1. The present invention designs an expandable refractory sleeve. When it is eroded by flame, an outer sheath of halogen-free low-smoke polyolefin is used for external protection. When the flame burns, the outer sheath automatically extinguishes after leaving the fire due to material reasons. At the same time, the inner expandable refractory sleeve foams and solidifies after being heated. An assembly port and a through port are provided on the expandable refractory sleeve. The assembly port and the through port are reserved for foaming stress-bearing ports. When the expandable refractory sleeve is foamed, an extrusion force is generated on the cavity inside of the assembly port and the through port to prevent the expandable refractory sleeve from expanding outwards after foaming and being squeezed inwards by the outer sheath, causing the internal cable to bend and affect the transmission rate. The internal force is reduced by the above-mentioned reserved deformation cavity after foaming, to prevent the internal deformation from compressing the cable, and to ensure the normal signal transmission rate.
[0014] 2. The present invention also designs an ammonium chloride wafer, which is embedded and installed inside the assembly port. The assembly port is designed to be inwardly concave with a smaller outer opening. When the expansion refractory sleeve is heated, foamed and solidified, the assembly port space is gradually reduced and then an extrusion force is generated. The extrusion breaks the ammonium chloride wafer. The ammonium chloride wafer has a stable structure. When it is extruded and broken, the crystal structure is destroyed, and an endothermic decomposition reaction occurs. The influence of heat transfer on the cable line is reduced by heat absorption, and the internal cable line is further protected to ensure its normal operation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

At the same time, the inner expansion refractory sleeve 3 is foamed and solidified after being heated. The expansion refractory sleeve 3 is provided with an assembly port 302 and a through port 303. The assembly port 302 and the through port 303 are reserved for foaming force-bearing ports. When the expansion refractory sleeve 3 is foamed, an extrusion force is generated inside the cavity of the assembly port 302 and the through port 303 to prevent the expansion refractory sleeve 3 from expanding outwards after foaming and being squeezed inwards by the outer sheath 2, causing the internal cable 102 to bend and affect the transmission rate. The internal force is reduced through the above-mentioned reserved deformation cavity after foaming to prevent the internal deformation from compressing the cable 102, thereby ensuring the normal signal transmission rate.
