Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of cables, in particular to a temporary flame retardant spraying device for cables. Background Art

[0002] Cables are made up of one or more mutually insulated conductive wires placed in a sealed sheath, which can be covered with a protective covering. They are used to transmit and distribute electrical energy or transmit electrical signals. For low-altitude cables, such as those used in residential areas, the insulation layer may age or break due to long-term exposure. When such problems are found in the cables, they need to be temporarily coated with flame retardants before repair or replacement. This can be used as an emergency protective measure to reduce the risk of fire. Liquid flame retardants have many applications in the construction field, mainly used to improve the fire resistance of building materials, cables, thermal insulation materials, etc. Level, thereby reducing the risk of fire. For example, adding liquid flame retardants to wires and cables can effectively prevent the spread of fire along the cables, buying valuable time for personnel evacuation and fire rescue. For a single cable or cable bundle, evenly apply the liquid flame retardant on the outer surface of the cable to form a flame retardant protective film to prevent the flame from spreading on the cable surface. When the cable is exposed to the external environment, such as when it is laid outdoors overhead or in the exposed part of a building, the liquid flame retardant applied to the cable surface can directly contact the air and quickly play a flame retardant role when a fire occurs, reducing the possibility of cable combustion.

[0003] When spraying flame retardants, the traditional method is to build scaffolding. Workers need to carry spraying equipment and climb to a high place and operate the spray gun accurately, which takes a lot of time. Moreover, when the cable spraying distance is long, the workers hold the spray gun for a long time, and their arms are easily sore, which consumes a lot of physical energy and reduces work efficiency.

[0010] Preferably, the side surface of each spirally wound portion of the smear tape is adjacent to and in contact with the corresponding side surface of the adjacent spirally wound portion.

[0011] Preferably, two notches are provided in the box cover of the containing box, and the straight portion of the smear tape is located in the notches.

[0012] Preferably, a collecting box fixed relative to the containing box is installed on the box cover, and an inclined scraper is fixedly installed on the outside of the collecting box.

The guide rail 4 and the contact portion of the smear belt 3 with the runner 2 are located between the two guide rails 4. The outer surface of the runner 2 is a circular convex structure to prevent the smear belt 3 from deviating from the runner 2.

The cross-section of the convex strip 5 is a triangular structure, and one end of the smear belt 3 is used to extrude the cable line. The rounded corners are set. When the scraper 9 is extruded with the convex strip 5, it can pass over the convex strip 5 along the inclined surface of the convex strip 5. One end of the smear belt 3 is spirally wound on the outer surface of the runner 2, and the other end is spirally wound on the outer surface of the cable line. The spirally wound portion of the smear belt 3 is in a non-overlapping state, and the two ends of the smear belt 3 are butt-jointed to form a closed loop structure. The straight line portions extending from the starting and ending points of the spiral portion of the smear belt 3 are in a tangent state, and the spiral portion of the smear belt 3 The straight part extending from the coating belt 3 is in an "eight"-shaped structure. The coating belt 3 moves along the axial direction of the cable during rotation and continuously applies flame retardant to the cable. When the coating belt 3 rotates, it moves spirally along the cable smoothly and continuously, and can evenly and comprehensively coat the cable, effectively ensuring the coating quality. The portion of the coating belt 3 located in the receiving box 1 is a folded edge structure. A fixed pulley 11 and a movable pulley 12 are installed at the folded edge of the coating belt 3. The central axis 13 of the fixed pulley 11 is rotatably connected to the receiving box 1, and the central axis 13 of the movable pulley 12 is slidably connected to the receiving box 1, and the distance between the two movable pulleys 12 is adjusted by a dual-axis electric push rod 14.

When the scraping work is in progress,The scraper 9 contacts the coating belt 3, and the ridges 5 move along the notches in the scraper 9. When the coated portion of the coating belt 3 is retracted into the storage box 1, the scraper 9 scrapes off the coated surface of the coating belt 3 due to its arc-shaped cross-section. The scraped foreign matter and old flame retardant flow along the inclined arc surface of the coating belt 3 into the storage box 1, facilitating collection and subsequent processing and reuse. A spray pump 15 is fixedly installed inside the storage box 1, with the nozzle 16 of the spray pump 15 facing the coated surface of the coating belt 3. One end of the pipe 17 of the spray pump 15 is located in the flame retardant in the storage box 1.

[0029] Working principle:

[0030] First, lift the container 1 and wrap one end of the coating tape 3 around the initial spraying position of the cable. Figure 6 As shown, the two ends of the smear tape 3 are fixed by Velcro 6, and the fixing method of the two ends is as follows Figure 7As shown; after the fixation is completed, the coating belt 3 forms a closed loop structure, and then the containing box 1 is slowly lowered, and the cable provides support for the coating belt 3. The gravity of the containing box 1 and the flame retardant inside it is used to make the containing box 1 sag, thereby tightening the coating belt 3 so that the whole can form a stable structure. Then the rotation of the runner 2 is controlled by the power mechanism, such as: the grinding wheel B is driven to rotate by the motor, and the grinding wheel B controls the rotation of the grinding wheel A through the friction between it and the grinding wheel A, and the grinding wheel A drives the runner 2 to rotate. Since one end of the coating belt 3 is spirally wound on the outer surface of the runner 2, when the runner 2 rotates around its own axis, the friction force will drive the spiral part of the coating belt 3 in contact with it to rotate together. Since the coating belt 3 is spirally wound on the outer surface of the runner 2 and the cable, and the spirally wound part is in a non-overlapping state, a structure similar to a coil spring is formed. When the runner 2 drives the spiral part of the coating belt 3 to rotate, this rotation will be transmitted along the spiral direction of the coating belt 3. Since the straight line parts extending from the starting and ending points of the spiral part of the coating belt 3 are opposite The smear belt 3 is in a shear state and has an "eight"-shaped structure, which makes the straight part generate a component force along the axial direction of the cable when the spiral part of the smear belt 3 rotates. Specifically, the straight part of the "eight"-shaped structure will be constrained by the outer surface of the cable and the torsional force of the spiral part when the rotating wheel 2 drives the smear belt 3 to rotate. Since the straight part is tangent to the spiral part, the rotation of the spiral part will cause the straight part to produce a movement trend both around the circumference of the cable and along the axial direction, and the "eight"-shaped structure makes the axial component force able to prompt the smear belt 3 to move along the axial direction of the cable while rotating; the closed-loop structure formed by the butt connection of the two ends of the smear belt 3 ensures the integrity and stability of the smear belt 3 during the movement. Driven by the rotating wheel 2, the smear belt 3 as a whole rotates and moves axially around the cable. The closed-loop structure prevents the smear belt 3 from falling off or loosening during the movement, and can continue to move stably along the axial direction of the cable, thereby achieving the subsequent uniform coating of the cable surface;It should be noted that to ensure that the smear tape 3 can stably move axially around the cable, a special structural design is adopted at the contact surface between the smear tape 3 and the cable. Specifically, a triangular convex strip 5 is installed on the contact surface of the smear tape 3. When the smear tape 3 squeezes the sealing sheath of the outer layer of the cable during operation, the tip of the convex strip 5 will first contact the surface of the sealing sheath. As the smear tape 3 continues to apply pressure, the rounded tip of the convex strip 5 prevents the convex strip 5 from damaging the sealing sheath. It also plays a key role in stabilizing the axial movement of the smear tape 3 along the cable. That is, during axial movement, the convex strip 5 increases the friction and bite force between the smear tape 3 and the cable. On the one hand, it prevents the smear tape 3 from slipping on the cable surface, allowing it to move closely in contact with the cable surface. On the other hand, it effectively resists the lateral force generated by the rotation of the smear tape 3 and external interference, preventing the smear tape 3 from axial deviation or shaking, ensuring that the smear tape 3 always moves smoothly and continuously along the axial direction of the cable, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the smearing operation on the cable surface.

[0031] Next, the depth of the flame retardant in the holding box 1 should be higher than the rotating wheel 2, so that the bottom of the coating belt 3 is immersed in the flame retardant in the holding box 1, and the flame retardant invades the coating belt 3. It should be noted that the coating belt 3 can be made of synthetic fiber fabric, which has good hygroscopicity and liquid absorption, can quickly absorb the flame retardant and maintain a certain liquid content, and provide a continuous supply of flame retardant for the coating work. It also has good flexibility and ductility, can move smoothly under the drive of the rotating wheel 2, and is in close contact with the surface of the cable to achieve uniform coating, and also has high strength and wear resistance, can resist wear and tear during use. Tear, adapt to more complex working environment, ensure the normal use of the coating belt 3; since the coating belt 3 is a closed loop structure, this allows the coating belt 3 to form a continuous circulation path when it rotates, one end is wound around the runner 2, and the other end is wound around the cable. When the runner 2 drives the coating belt 3 to rotate, the coating belt 3 will continue to circulate between the runner 2 and the cable. When the cable that needs to be temporarily coated with flame retardant is long, it can also ensure that the cable is fully coated with flame retardant. It should be noted that the contact surface of the coating belt 3 will be squeezed by the movable pulley 12 and the static pulley, so that the flame retardant content on the coating belt 3 is reduced. Figure 11 As shown, the spray pump 15 can be started to allow the flame retardant in the holding box 1 to enter from the pipe 17 and be sprayed out from the nozzle in a fan-shaped manner, spraying the flame retardant onto the coating belt 3, and the height of the nozzle can be greater than the height of the movable pulley 12, so that the coating belt 3 can carry more flame retardant liquid.

[0032] Next, in order to make the smear belt 3 more stable during movement, the side surfaces of each spirally wound portion of the smear belt 3 can be made adjacent to and in contact with the corresponding side surfaces of the adjacent spirally wound portions, and a number of convex strips 5 can be used to make the side friction between the convex strips 5 make the smear belt 3 more stable when moving; due to the different thicknesses of different cables, the width of the smear belt 3 wrapped around the cable is different, and the "eight"-shaped structure of the smear belt 3 needs to be adjusted to ensure the stability of the smear belt 3 during movement. During adjustment, the two movable pulleys 12 can be driven to move in a straight line by starting the dual-axis electric push rod 14, so that the movable pulley 12 drives a part of the smear belt 3 close to it to move, and this part is the bottom of the "eight"-shaped structure, so that the "eight"-shaped structure of the smear belt 3 is adjusted to a suitable angle. It should be noted that the surfaces of the movable pulley 12 and the static pulley should be as follows Figure 10 The groove shown is shaped to limit the smear tape 3, and the edges of the groove are rounded to prevent damage to the smear tape 3.
