DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0016] The specific implementation modes of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to these implementation modes, and any improvement or substitution based on the basic spirit of the present embodiment still falls within the scope of protection required by the claims of the present invention.

[0017] Example: Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a single-bundle power cable laying device in a pipeline, comprising a laying pipeline 1, wherein the upper portion of the pipeline has a relatively narrow opening A2 that runs through the axial direction. The power cable laying device also includes a sealing strip 3 with an I-shaped cross section, and the grooves 4 on both sides of the I-shaped sealing strip match the pipeline edge at the opening of the laying pipeline.

[0018] The I-shaped sealing strip includes an upper transverse portion 5, a lower transverse portion 6, and an intermediate connecting portion 7 connecting the upper transverse portion and the lower transverse portion, wherein the width of the upper transverse portion is greater than that of the lower transverse portion and the upper transverse portion is located outside the laying pipeline, and the lower transverse portion is located inside the laying pipeline. The upper transverse portion and the lower transverse portion are arranged in an arc shape concentric with the laying pipeline.

[0019] In this embodiment, an embedded installation groove 8 that penetrates the axial direction of the sealing strip is provided on the bottom surface of the lower transverse portion, and a pull rope 9 is provided in the installation groove. The pull rope can be moved in the installation groove by external force. The lower part of the installation groove has an opening B10, and a blocking portion 11 is provided at one end of the pull rope. The cross-sectional area of ​​the blocking portion is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the installation groove. In this embodiment, the blocking portion is formed by knotting the first pull rope. The pull rope is located in the installation groove, and the blocking portion of the pull rope is located outside the installation groove. A fixed clamping ring 12 is provided at one end of the pull rope located at the blocking portion, and a plurality of movable clamping rings 13 are provided on the pull rope. The fixed clamping ring and the movable clamping ring both include a connecting portion 14 and an annular portion. The connecting portion is connected to the pull rope, and the annular portion is located in the laying pipeline.

[0020] As one embodiment, a fixed hanging ring 15 is provided on the pull rope at intervals, and a hook 16 matching with the hanging ring is provided at the connection part between the fixed clamping ring and the movable clamping ring. The fixed clamping ring and the movable clamping ring are connected to the pull rope in a detachable manner through the cooperation between the hook and the hanging ring.

[0021] The annular portion A17 of the fixed clamping ring is different from the annular portion B18 of the movable clamping ring. The annular portion A of the fixed clamping ring is made of an elastic material, such as elastic rubber. The inner diameter of the annular portion A is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the cable to be laid. In this way, when the annular portion A holds the cable tightly, it is equivalent to achieving a fixed connection with the cable and will not move relative to the cable.

[0022] The annular portion B18 of the movable clamping ring is made of hard plastic, and the inner diameter of the annular portion B is larger than the outer diameter of the cable to be laid. In this way, when the pull rope and the cable move relative to each other, the annular portion B will also move with the pull rope and then move relative to the cable.

[0023] In this embodiment, the annular portion B is composed of two semicircular semicircular rings, wherein one end of one semicircular ring A is hinged to the tail of the connecting portion, and one end of the other semicircular ring B is hinged to the other end of the semicircular ring A, and a mounting hole is provided at the other end of the semicircular ring B, and a mounting column matching the mounting hole is provided at the end of the semicircular ring A hinged to the connecting portion, and a limiting convex ring is provided on the mounting column, and the mounting hole can be forcefully inserted into the mounting column inside the limiting convex ring to achieve limiting.

[0024] Of course, other limiting methods may also be adopted. For example, a slot is provided on the connecting portion, and a row of ratchet teeth A extending inward is provided on the bottom surface of the slot. The other end of the semicircular ring B is provided with a row of ratchet teeth B extending outward and cooperating with the ratchet teeth. The ratchet teeth A and the ratchet teeth B are engaged with each other by inserting the semicircular ring B into the slot.

[0025] In addition, the inner circles of the annular portion A and the annular portion B are both provided with a plush layer 19, the purpose of which is to prevent the annular portion A and the annular portion B from damaging the outer surface of the cable during the laying process.

[0026] As another implementation in this embodiment, the I-shaped sealing strip is made of PVC material, but embedded sealing rubber strips 20 are arranged on the inner side of the grooves on both sides of the I-shaped sealing strip, that is, below the upper transverse part, above the lower transverse part, and on both sides of the middle connecting part. The sealing rubber strip runs through the axial direction of the I-shaped sealing strip. In this embodiment, the sealing rubber strip is a U-shape placed horizontally to the left and right. Moreover, a pull ring is arranged on the upper transverse part of one end of the I-shaped sealing strip where the stretch plugging part is arranged. The pull ring is arranged to be fixedly connected or detachably connected to the upper transverse part of the I-shaped sealing strip. For example, a U-shaped sleeve opening toward the rear is arranged on the upper transverse part, and the pull ring can be sleeved on the U-shaped sleeve and pull the I-shaped sealing strip to move forward.

[0027] This embodiment also provides a method for laying a power cable in a pipeline, using the power cable laying device in this embodiment and following the steps below: Step 1: Pre-lay pipelines at the construction site where power cables need to be laid; Step 2: A cable drum is arranged at one end of the laying pipeline, the cable is wound on the cable drum, and an I-shaped sealing strip is also included. A draw rope is pre-installed in the sealing strip, and a hanging ring is pre-installed on the draw rope; Step 3: The first staff member pulls out the cable 21, and sets the annular portion of the fixed clamping ring on the head of the cable, and at the same time hangs the hook on the connecting portion of the fixed clamping ring on the first hanging ring located at the blocking portion of the pull rope; the second staff member holds the pull ring at the end of the I-shaped sealing strip and inserts the left and right grooves of the I-shaped sealing strip into the opening on the laying pipeline, and at the same time pulls the I-shaped sealing strip forward through the pull ring to ensure that the cable passes into the laying pipeline; Step 4: The first worker continues to sleeve the annular portion of the movable clamping ring on the cable, and hangs the hook of the connecting portion of each movable clamping ring on the hanging ring of the pull rope in axial order in a front-to-back order. The second worker pulls the pull ring of the I-shaped sealing strip forward according to the progress of the first worker to realize the cable threading, until the cable is completely inserted into the laying pipeline; Step 5: After the pipe threading is completed, the first worker stops working, and the second worker reaches the other end of the laying pipeline and removes the fixed clamping ring from the cable; then pulls the plug of the pull rope and slowly pulls the pull rope out of the installation groove. During the process of pulling the pull rope out, the annular part of the movable clamping ring slides forward on the cable and gradually detaches from the cable, and the cable gradually and slowly falls into the inner cavity of the laying pipeline from back to front, completing the pipe threading of the cable and the sealing of the laying pipeline.

[0028] The device and method for laying power cables in the pipeline of the present embodiment are adopted: first, a laying pipeline with an axial opening on the upper part can be pre-placed, and then the cable can be threaded through the pipeline while the laying pipeline is sealed. Second, during the laying process of the laying device in the present embodiment, the cable will not contact the inner wall of the pipeline, ensuring that the cable will not be scratched by the pipeline. At the same time, during the process of pulling out the pull rope, the pipeline gradually and slowly falls into the inner wall of the pipeline from back to front, which greatly ensures the integrity of the cable, avoids cable damage caused by external force or friction, achieves the purpose of safe laying, and the success rate of threading is very high. Third, during the use of the device in the present embodiment, there is no need to pull out the cable for a long distance in advance, but to pull it out slowly, and then install the clamping ring on the cable after pulling it out, and then hang the clamping ring on the sealing strip. This practice avoids the cable being pulled out for a long distance in advance and causing friction and damage to the cable. Fourth, during the use of the device in the present embodiment, only two workers are required to complete it, with high efficiency and low labor.
