[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, a computer instrument cable includes a control conductor 1, a communication conductor 2, a power conductor 3, an insulating layer 4, a flame retardant filler 5, an inner core protective layer 6, a high temperature resistant layer 7, and an outer sheath 8.

[0021] The control conductor 1, the communication conductor 2, and the power conductor 3 are respectively coated with an insulating layer 4 to form three cable cores with different functions, and the three cable cores are twisted together. The inner core protective layer 6 is coated on the outside of the three twisted cable cores, and the inner core protective layer 6 is a shielding layer, which plays a shielding role; the flame retardant filler 5 is filled between the inner core protective layer 6 and the three cable cores to play a flame retardant role; the above structure together constitutes the inner core of the cable. The high temperature resistant layer 7 is coated on the outside of the inner core protective layer 6, and cooperates with the flame retardant filler 5 inside the inner core protective layer 6 to provide double-layer protection for the inner core of the cable, which greatly improves the high temperature resistance and flame retardancy of the cable; the outer sheath 8 is coated on the outside of the high temperature resistant layer 7, which can effectively improve the mechanical properties of the cable and is not easy to be damaged.

[0022] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, a computer instrument cable bending resistance test equipment is used to test the above-mentioned computer instrument cable, including a test table 9, three groups of test components correspondingly arranged on the left, middle and right sides of the test table 9 and sliding back and forth, a driving component arranged at the bottom of the test table 9 and connected to the three groups of test components, and a guide component arranged at the left and right ends of the test table 9, and the three groups of test components and the guide component are on the same left and right straight line.

[0023] As a further improvement of this embodiment, two side baffles 10 arranged along the left and right directions are provided at the front and rear ends of the test bench 9. The side baffles 10 play a protective role to prevent the cable from splashing around when it breaks.

[0024] As a further improvement of this embodiment, three slide grooves 11 arranged along the front-to-back direction are correspondingly provided on the left, middle and right sides of the test bench 9, the two slide grooves 11 located on the left and right sides extend from the middle to the front side, and the slide groove 11 located on the middle side extends from the middle to the rear side, and the three groups of test components are correspondingly slidably installed in the three slide grooves 11. The three groups of test components all include a base 12 slidably installed in the slide grooves 11, and two clamping columns 13 arranged on the base 12, the two clamping columns 13 are distributed front and back with a spacing between them, and the spacing size is greater than or equal to the cable diameter size.

[0025] As a further improvement of this embodiment, the driving assembly includes three connecting plates 14 located below the test bench 9 and fixedly connected to the bottom of the base 12 in the three test assemblies, three driving rods 15 with one end slidingly connected to the three connecting plates 14, three transmission pulleys 18 coaxially connected to the other ends of the three driving rods 15, and a transmission belt 19 connected to the three transmission pulleys 18. Three mounting plates 20 are provided at the bottom of the test bench 9, and the three driving rods 15 and the three transmission pulleys 18 are rotatably mounted on the three mounting plates 20. The driving rod 15 located in the middle is connected to a driving motor 21. The three connecting plates 14 are all arranged in the left-right direction, and the lower plate surface is provided with connecting grooves 16 distributed in the same direction, and one end of the three driving rods 15 is provided with a connecting protrusion 17 slidably mounted in the connecting groove 16.

[0026] As a further improvement of this embodiment, the guide assembly includes two rotating seats 22 arranged at the left and right ends of the test bench 9, and two guide rings 23 vertically installed on the two rotating seats 22. The inner ring diameter of the two guide rings 23 is greater than or equal to the cable diameter. The side edges of the two guide rings 23 relative to the inner ring are chamfered to reduce the friction of the test on the cable.

[0027] The working principle and use process of the present invention:

[0028] When using, test equipment such as Figure 3 As shown, the computer instrument cable to be tested is passed through the guide ring 23, the three clamping columns 13 on the three groups of test components from the left or right side of the test bench 9 in turn, and passes through the guide ring 23 at the other end; then, the rotation speed, test duration and test cycle of the drive motor 21 are set; the drive motor 21 is started, and the three drive rods 15 are driven to rotate synchronously in the same direction through the transmission pulley 18 and the transmission belt 19, and the connecting plate 14 drives the base 12 to slide back and forth along the slide groove 11 through the sliding cooperation between the connecting protrusion 17 and the connecting slide groove 16. Since the two slide grooves 11 on the left and right sides extend from the middle to the front side, and the slide groove 11 on the middle side extends from the middle to the rear side, the bases 12 on the left and right sides move in opposite directions to the base 12 on the middle side, thereby realizing the bending test of the computer instrument cable; after the test is completed, check whether the outer skin and internal structure of the computer instrument cable are torn or damaged.
