Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] High-voltage cables may be damaged due to external force, insulation aging, joint failure or environmental corrosion during long-term operation. If not repaired in time, it may cause short circuit, electric leakage and even fire. Repairing can restore insulation performance, prevent water and impurities from entering to cause further deterioration, and ensure the safety and stability of power transmission. In addition, repairing can prolong the service life of the cable, reduce the risk of power failure, avoid equipment damage or power interruption caused by cable failure, and ensure the reliable operation of the power grid. Therefore, timely repairing of high-voltage cables is an important measure to maintain the safety and efficiency of the power system.

[0003] In the existing high-voltage cable repair technology, the traditional heat shrink tube needs to be completely sleeved on the cable body, which is difficult to construct in space-limited or cable-laid scenes, time-consuming to operate and easy to damage the core. The waterproof relies on a single hot melt glue layer, which is easy to peel off under long-term pressure to form a water seepage channel. The insulation and mechanical protection need to be wound with multiple layers of materials such as water-blocking tape and reinforcing tape in steps, which is easy to leave air gaps or not tightly overlapped between layers, resulting in electric field distortion and partial discharge hazards. Uneven heating during heat shrinkage is easy to produce wrinkles or insufficient shrinkage, affecting the sealing reliability. SUMMARY

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a zipper type heat shrink tube for high-voltage cable composite terminal, which solves the problem that the traditional heat shrink tube needs to be completely sleeved on the cable body, which is difficult to construct in space-limited or cable-laid scenes, time-consuming to operate and easy to damage the core.

[0006] The outer end of the extension sleeve is provided with a zipper strip, and the inner end opening of the zipper strip is the same in shape as the two extension sleeves.

[0007] According to the zipper type heat shrink tube for high-voltage cable composite terminal, the water-swelling adhesive tape is arranged at one end of the heat shrink tube body close to the cable body.

[0008] According to the zipper type heat shrink tube for high-voltage cable composite terminal, the other end of the water-swelling adhesive tape is provided with a functional layer.

[0009] According to the zip fastener type heat shrinkable tube for the high-voltage cable composite terminal, the other end of the functional layer is provided with a reinforcing layer.

[0010] According to the zip fastener type heat shrinkable tube for the high-voltage cable composite terminal, the outermost end of the heat shrinkable tube body is provided with a hot melt sealant layer, and one end of the hot melt sealant layer is connected with the reinforcing layer.

[0011] The above-mentioned scheme has the beneficial effects of:

[0012] 1.

[0013] 2. The heat shrinkable tube of the patent integrates the stepped waterproof interface and the composite functional layer, realizes the integration of multiple protections, the inner layer expands the waterproof tape to actively block the water seepage path; the semi-conductive water-resistant tape uniformly distributes the electric field, the ethylene-propylene self-fusion tape strengthens the insulation, and the aramid woven layer provides radial tear resistance support, and the functions of each layer are coordinated, so that waterproofing, insulation strengthening, mechanical protection and stress control are simultaneously completed in a single heat shrinkage process.
