Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of communications, in particular to a towing cable connected to a floating minesweeping cable. Background Art
[0002] Floating minesweeping cables are used on the 081 minesweeper, mainly to clear mines on the aircraft carrier's forward route and escort the aircraft carrier. The floating minesweeping cable is connected to the 081 ship through a tow cable, so the connection between the floating minesweeping cable and the tow cable is particularly important.
[0003] Due to the harsh working environment in the ocean and the influence of factors such as sea waves and currents, the joint between the floating minesweeping cable and the tow cable will be subjected to large alternating stress, so the joint between the floating minesweeping cable and the tow cable is easily damaged or broken, resulting in cable failure and even loss of the equipment carried on it. At the same time, in order to ensure the speed and range of the 081 minesweeper, and to maintain a stable and reliable connection throughout the voyage, and to be able to carry out minesweeping tasks, the connection of the joint must be reliable. On the other hand, the marine environment is complex and changeable, and the minesweeping cable will be impacted by different degrees of currents during navigation. The minesweeping cable itself is also heavy, so it is also necessary to improve the impact resistance and tensile strength of the joint between the floating minesweeping cable and the tow cable.

[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.
[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, a towline connected to a floating minesweeping cable comprises a first core conductor 1, a tape layer 2, an insulating layer 3, a second core conductor 4, and an outer sheath 5 which are concentrically arranged in sequence from the inside to the outside.
[0023] The first core conductor is formed by twisting a plurality of copper wires. The diameter of the copper wires is 0.85 mm and the number is 1110. The copper wires are twisted in a multiple twist structure. The copper wires comply with GB3953.
[0024] The wrapping tape layer is a water-blocking tape wrapped around the outside of the first core conductor, and the wrapping tape layer can play a bundling role and a water-blocking role.
[0025] The insulating layer is made of TPV material. The density of TPV material (thermoplastic vulcanized rubber) is relatively low, which is 0.91g / cm 3, so as to ensure that the specific gravity of the cable is not too large. The thickness of the insulating layer is greater than or equal to 3.0 mm.
[0026] The second core conductor includes a plurality of insulated wires, which are surrounded by the outside of the first insulating layer and twisted into one. The number of the insulated wires is 63, and the twist coefficient is not greater than 1.05. The conductor of the insulated wire is copper wire, the diameter of the copper wire is 1.39mm, and the copper wire complies with the provisions of GB3953. The insulating sleeve of the insulated wire is made of TPV material, and the insulating sleeve is blue. The density of TPV material (thermoplastic vulcanized rubber) is relatively low, which is 0.91g / cm 3 , thus ensuring that the cable weight is not too large.
[0027] The outer sheath is made of PU material. PU material is polyether polyurethane, which has the functions of hydrolysis resistance, wear resistance, seawater corrosion resistance, and resistance to high seabed water pressure penetration, ensuring that when the towline is towed on the sea surface and rubs against reefs, the outer sheath is not easily damaged, providing protection for the overall operation of the towline.
[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the existing floating minesweeping cable includes a rubber strip 11, a float 12, a water blocking tape 13, a self-adhesive sealing layer 14, an inner conductor 15, a TPV insulating layer 16, an insulated outer conductor 17, a wrapping tape 18, and a PU sheath 19 which are arranged concentrically from the inside to the outside. The specific structure is as follows:
[0029] 1. The rubber strip is a PE rubber strip, which acts as a series of floating bodies, with a specific gravity of 0.91g / cm 3 ;
[0030] 2. The float is a polyurethane imitation wood structure, which provides buoyancy for the cable and ensures that the cable density is 1.026g / cm 3 , so that the cable is in a zero buoyancy state and can float on the sea surface;
[0031] 3. The water-blocking tape is a wrapped water-blocking tape to ensure that the cable has a certain water-blocking performance;
[0032] 4. The self-adhesive sealing layer is extruded TPV (thermoplastic vulcanized rubber), and the density of TPV is 0.91g / cm 3 , making the float more stable and also providing a certain buoyancy for the cable;
[0033] 5. The inner conductor is a plurality of copper conductors twisted outside the self-adhesive sealing layer, which provides a large current for the cable and also plays a certain pulling role;
[0034] 6. The TPV insulation layer is extruded TPV (thermoplastic vulcanized rubber), which plays an insulating role and also provides a certain buoyancy for the cable;
[0035] 7. The insulated outer conductor is a plurality of insulated conductors twisted outside the TPV insulation layer, which provides a large current for the cable and can also play a certain pulling role;
[0036] 8. Tape, used to bundle insulated conductors;
[0037] 9. PU sheath provides protection for the overall operation of the floating minesweeping cable.
