Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of power devices for smart grids, and in particular discloses a compact strip cable. Background Technology

[0002] With the growth in electricity demand, there is an increasing need for cables with multiple cores and high-density electrical units. However, existing ribbon cables are not suitable for the needs of smart grids.

[0003] On the other hand, with the constraints of space and pipeline resources and the increase in rental costs, stakeholders have higher and higher requirements for resource utilization. Therefore, square-section pipes and cables are being widely promoted and used. Compared with circular pipes and cables, they have higher space utilization, less space waste, and lower costs.

[0004] CN202887806U discloses a special flexible branched ribbon cable, comprising multiple three-core cables, each consisting of three conductors, each conductor being wrapped with an insulation layer. The three insulated conductors are twisted together and then covered with a sheath layer. The multiple three-core cables are branched at different lengths by bending. The non-bending portions of the multiple three-core cables are braided with polyester filaments as warp and weft. This cable has a less compact structure, slow production speed, and low construction and inspection efficiency.

[0005] CN117348180A discloses a ribbon optical cable comprising a light transmission body and a protective shell. The light transmission body consists of 2N or 2N+1 optical fiber ribbons, each of which is an integral structure containing multiple optical fibers. Each optical fiber ribbon is composed of mutually perpendicular first and second bonding sections, and the first and second bonding sections of each optical fiber ribbon are symmetrical. The protective shell is formed by a first wall, a second wall, a third wall, and a fourth wall of equal wall thickness. The protective shell is a closed tetrahedral structure, and its interior has a shell cavity with a square cross-section. While it increases the fiber core density by using optical fiber ribbons with single right-angle bends, making it suitable for square conduits, it is overly complex, with an excessive number of optical fiber ribbons, making management and maintenance difficult. Furthermore, the core count of a single optical fiber ribbon needs improvement, as does the overall manufacturing speed of the product. Summary of the Invention

[0031] Implementation Example 2: Please see Figures 5 to 7 and refer to Figures 1 to 4 A compact structure ribbon cable has multiple electrical units 2 and two identical ribbon components 1. The first ribbon component 1 is vertically and horizontally flipped and then fitted with the second ribbon component 1 to form a cable core with a rectangular cross-section. The multiple electrical units 2 are distributed within the ribbon component 1 along the extension direction of the ribbon component 1.

[0032] The aforementioned compact strip cable comprises a strip component 1 consisting of a strip body, which is composed of a first body 11, a second body 12, a third body 13, a fourth body 14, a fifth body 15, and a sixth body 16 connected sequentially. The cross-sections of the first to sixth bodies are all rectangular.

The right surfaces of the first body 11 and the left surfaces of the sixth body 16 are in the same plane, as are the left surfaces of the fourth body 14 and the right surfaces of the sixth body 16. The left surface of the third body 13, the right surface of the fourth body 14, and the right surface of the fifth body 15 are in the same plane. The lower surface of the fourth body 14 and the lower surface of the third body 13 are in the same plane. The upper surface of the sixth body 16 and the upper surface of the fourth body 14 are in the same plane. The first body 11, the third body 13, and the sixth body 16 are parallel. The second body 12, the fourth body 14, and the fifth body 15 are parallel. The first body 11 and the second body 12 are perpendicular. The first to fourth bodies and the sixth body together form an inner cavity 101 with an opening 1010. Opening 1010 is located below the lower right surface of the first body 11. The upper and lower surfaces of the strip-shaped body are parallel, and the left and right surfaces of the strip-shaped body are parallel. The space enclosed by the lower surface of the first body 11, the left surface of the strip-shaped body, the lower surface of the strip-shaped body, and the left surface of the sixth body 16 is the first space 102. The space enclosed by the upper, lower, and right surfaces of the fifth body 15 and the right surface of the third body 13 is the second space 103. The space enclosed by the upper surface of the fifth body 15, the right surface of the sixth body 16, the lower surface of the fourth body 14, and the right surface of the third body 13 is the third space 104. See [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5The lengths of the fourth body 14 and the fifth body 15 are equal. The length of the second body 12 is equal to the sum of the lengths of the sixth body 16 and the fourth body 14. The height of the first body 11 is less than the height of the third body 13. The height of the first body 11 is greater than the height of the second body 12. The height of the third body 13 is greater than the height of the fourth body 14. The difference between the height of the third body 13 and the height of the fourth body 14 is greater than the height of the first body 11. The height of the sixth body 16 is greater than the height of the fourth body 14. The height of the sixth body 16 is greater than the height of the fifth body 15.

[0033] The aforementioned compact strip cable comprises a fifth body 15, a sixth body 16, and a fourth body 14 of a first strip component 1 embedded within the inner cavity 101 of a second strip component 1; the lower surface of the first body 11 of the second strip component 1 is in the same plane as the upper surface of the fifth body 15 of the first strip component 1, and the upper surface of the fourth body 14 of the second strip component 1 is in close contact with the upper surfaces of the sixth body 16 and the upper surface of the fourth body 14 of the first strip component 1.

[0034] In this embodiment, the fourth body 14 does not have an electrical unit.

[0035] Implementation Example 3: Please see Figure 8 and refer to Figures 5 to 7 A compact ribbon cable, basically the same as embodiment 2, except that: the fourth body 14 also has multiple signal transmission units 3, which can be insulated wires or optical fibers, or partly insulated wires and partly optical fibers; or optical fiber ribbons.

[0036] In this application, the electrical unit 2 is distributed within the first to fifth bodies, or within the first to sixth bodies, or within the first to fifth bodies outside the fourth body, or within the first to sixth bodies outside the fourth body. That is, the fourth body may not have an electrical unit but may have a signal transmission unit 3. Of course, the electrical unit 2 can also be replaced by an optical fiber, or the electrical unit 2 can be replaced by an optical fiber ribbon in the form of a ribbon. This method greatly increases the number of cores in the optical fiber ribbon, and is not limited to the maximum number of cores of 12 or 24 recommended in the prior art. The recommended number refers to YD / T 981, the recommended standard of the communications industry of the People's Republic of China, etc.

[0037] In this application, in Embodiment 1, the two first strip-shaped components 1 are tightly interlocked to form a tightly packed rectangular cross-section cable core, eliminating wasted space and making full use of the available space. In Embodiments 2 and 3, the two first strip-shaped components 1 are interlocked to form a rectangular cross-section cable core, with two rectangular cross-section third spaces 104 within the cable core. These two third spaces 104 are located on the left and right sides of the cable core and are staggered vertically. Compared to Embodiment 1, this structure, due to the presence of the third spaces 104, provides better heat dissipation for the electrical unit 2 within the strip-shaped component. Furthermore, the third spaces 104 allow for convenient removal of the electrical unit 2 and signal transmission unit 3 from the strip-shaped component 1. (See [link to related document]). Figure 8 Whether it is the first strip component 1 or the second strip component 1, the internal electrical unit 2 and signal transmission unit 3 can be easily removed through the surrounding area and the third space 104 without disassembly, thus ensuring the integrity of the product structure and the speed of construction and inspection.

[0038] Existing fiber optic ribbon forming equipment typically has limited space, with finite length and width. Therefore, it is generally impossible to produce more than 12 fiber optic ribbons in a row at once. A 24-core fiber optic ribbon is formed by splicing two 12-core fiber optic ribbons together, which can easily cause performance instability at the splice point. However, the ribbon component in this application makes full use of the forming space of the fiber optic ribbon forming equipment and can be formed in one step when used as a fiber optic ribbon.

[0039] When used as a power transmission component, it is easier to achieve through extrusion of the sheath, and even a hole is reserved at the position of the electrical unit 2, which can be inserted as needed during use, greatly improving flexibility.

[0040] In this application, the cross-section of the strip component is close to that of a rectangle, which makes it very easy to store and stack, saving space resources, and is also quite neat and beautiful.

[0041] The two identical strip-shaped components described in this application mainly refer to their shape, size, and dimensions. Their strip-shaped bodies can have different colors, making them easier to distinguish and identify.

[0042] In this application, at least one functional protective layer can be added to the outside of the compact structure ribbon cable, such as tensile, compressive, fireproof, and flame-retardant functions. Multiple protective functions can be formed through the combination of multiple layers.

[0043] In this application, multiple compact structure ribbon cables can be combined horizontally, overlappingly, or in combination with horizontal and overlapping structures to form a composite cable core, based on the aforementioned compact structure ribbon cable. At least one functional protective layer can be added outside the composite cable core, such as tensile strength, compressive strength, fire resistance, and flame retardancy. Multiple protective functions can be formed through multi-layer cooperation.

[0044] The compact structure ribbon cable described in this application has a one-piece ribbon body.

[0045] The compact structure ribbon cable described in this application is preferably made of plastic or composite material with high hardness after molding.

[0046] In this application, the cable core will not unravel during twisting, coiling, or repeated bending under normal testing conditions or normal usage conditions; that is, the first strip component 1 and the second strip component 1 will not separate from each other. Normal usage conditions include general construction, dragging, and swinging. The normal testing range refers to the general testing requirements for cables or optical cables, not destructive testing requirements.

[0047] A compact ribbon cable, wherein the conductor is made of copper or aluminum alloy and the ribbon body is made of cross-linked polyethylene insulation material.

[0048] In this application, the core density is increased by using strip-shaped components or strip-shaped bodies with three or five right-angle bends. The structure of the strip-shaped components or strip-shaped bodies allows two strip-shaped components or strip-shaped bodies to interlock or fit together to form a cable core with a rectangular cross-section. When there are three right-angle bends, there is no waste of extra cavities inside the cable core. When there are five right-angle bends, two third spaces are formed on the left and right sides and staggered vertically. Through the third spaces and the surrounding spaces, the strip-shaped components or strip-shaped bodies do not need to be separated to access the internal electrical units or signal transmission units, thereby improving the efficiency of inspection, testing, and construction.

[0049] The cable in this application is suitable for and adapted to square conduits, maximizing the use of conduit space and reducing overall costs.

[0050] This application has the following main beneficial technical effects: easy to manufacture, easy to form, stable and reliable structure, high core density, easy construction and easy inspection.

[0051] The cable in this application may have an aluminum alloy conductor, hence it may be called an aluminum alloy power cable. Due to the effective electrical isolation of the strip body, it can transmit very high power levels, hence it may also be called a high voltage or ultra-high voltage cable. In this application, when the material of the strip body is plastic, cross-linked polyethylene insulation material is preferred, hence it may also be called a cross-linked polyethylene insulated power cable.

[0052] When optical fiber is present in this application, it can be used as a smart sensor or smart sensing element; since it can transmit voice and images, it can also be used as a physical sensor, such as a voice sensor or an image sensor; since it transmits light signals through the principle of total internal reflection, it can also be used as a distance sensor; the optical fiber in this application is itself an optical waveguide, so it can be used as an optical waveguide, such as an arrayed optical waveguide or a diffractive optical waveguide; this application can also be used in the field of optical computing, as part of optical chip computing, optical computing, optical network computing, and optical computing.

[0053] In this application, when both conductors and optical fibers are present, they can be used simultaneously for power transmission and rapid power dispatch, and therefore can be used in smart grids as power components in smart grids.

[0054] The above embodiments are merely preferred technical solutions of the present invention and should not be considered as limitations on the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention should be limited to the technical solutions described in the claims, including equivalent substitutions of the technical features described in the claims. That is, equivalent substitutions and improvements within this scope are also within the scope of protection of the present invention.
