Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cables, and in particular to a fiber material spiral twisting device and a twisting method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The submarine cables needed for the development of marine resources need to withstand the ultra-high breaking force brought by the movement of ocean currents. The cables need to be designed to meet the breaking force requirements of the use environment according to different marine laying environments and depths. In order to maintain the flexibility of the cable, the general reinforcement material is selected from aramid yarn materials with high strength. Aramid yarn has a high tensile strength (more than 22 g / denier), which is about 5 to 6 times that of steel wire; high modulus aramid yarn (450 to 1000 g / denier), the tensile strength is about 2 to 3 times that of steel wire and glass fiber; low specific gravity, about 1 / 5 of steel wire; the material also has excellent high temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance and self-extinguishing properties.

[0003] Although aramid yarn has excellent breaking force, the material is soft and fluffy. It is still difficult to arrange the aramid yarn in a spiral on the cable core like a metal wire. It is easy for the aramid yarn and the cable core to not fit together or become empty, and the designed breaking force cannot be achieved.

[0004] In the prior art, different force values ​​are required according to the water depth and occasions where the cable is used, and it is often necessary to combine multiple aramid yarns to achieve this. Domestic aramid yarn specifications are incomplete, and manufacturers are often required to combine the yarns themselves. The fiber yarns are soft and fluffy. When using existing equipment, the traditional metal wire adjustment method is used when combining the yarns, and the tension cannot be adjusted to be consistent. The inconsistent tension leads to a significant reduction in the force value.

[0005] When the stranded aramid yarn is armored, the aramid yarn is attached to the cable core under the tension adjustment state of the cradle frame. Once it is affected by the turnover disk, the aramid yarn loses its tension and cannot fit tightly to the cable core, resulting in loose sheathing process, cable core sliding, serious reduction of mechanical properties, twisting and breaking during use. Summary of the invention
