Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cable production equipment, and in particular to a cooling device for fireproof cable production. Background Art

[0002] Fireproof cables can maintain the integrity of the circuit in the event of a fire, ensuring the safe and normal operation of key emergency systems. They are widely used in fire alarm systems, smoke detection systems, emergency lighting power systems and public broadcasting systems in large shopping malls, hospitals, office spaces, stations, airports, residential buildings and other buildings.

[0003] Fireproof cables are generally coated with a layer of magnesium oxide material on the outside of the cable. The magnesium oxide material layer is coated on the outside of the cable core by injection molding. There is an annealing step in the production process of magnesium oxide cables.

[0004] The surface temperature of the annealed magnesium oxide cable is high, and the magnesium oxide cable is easily oxidized, which affects the performance of the magnesium oxide cable. Therefore, the annealed magnesium oxide cable needs to be cooled down. The cooling is generally carried out by water cooling, and the cable is cooled by water. At the same time, in order to protect the magnesium oxide cable, an antioxidant needs to be added to the coolant. In the prior art, the cooling of the magnesium oxide cable is generally carried out by injecting coolant into the cooling tank, and then adding antioxidant. The cooling tank needs to continuously inject coolant and antioxidant. The coolant after heat exchange needs to be treated before discharge. It is not only difficult to clean the cooling tank used to cool the magnesium oxide cable, but also the coolant needs to be treated before discharge, and the consumption of antioxidant is too large, which increases the cost to a certain extent.

[0007] By adopting the above technical scheme, when cooling the cable, the cable is passed from the opening at one end of the water cooling tank to the inside of the water cooling tank and passes out from the opening at the other end. Water is stored in the water tank. Antioxidants are added to the inside of the water tank through the opening above the water tank. The antioxidants are fully mixed with water in the water tank. When cooling, the water in the water tank is transported to the cooling pipeline in the heat exchanger through a pipeline. The coolant pipeline in the heat exchanger contacts with the cooling pipeline and performs heat exchange to reduce the temperature of the water in the cooling pipeline. The cooled water is transported to the water cooling tank through a pipeline through the water outlet of the cooling pipeline of the heat exchanger.

The water is evenly distributed through the water inlet pipe, so that water can be simultaneously supplied to multiple tanks for cooling.

[0012] Optionally, an openable and closable end cover is provided above the water cooling tank.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the water cooling tank is closed by the end cover to prevent the water in the water cooling tank and the steam generated during the cooling process from overflowing and polluting the working environment.

The filter filters the impurities in the water to avoid impurities clogging the pipeline. The replenishment pipeline is used to inject water into the water tank to maintain the circulating water volume.

[0020] Optionally, the water inlet and the water outlet of the coolant pipeline in the heat exchanger are connected to an external water source.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, an external water source enters the coolant pipeline through the water inlet, exchanges heat with water in the coolant pipeline to cool the water, and the coolant after heat exchange is discharged through the water outlet for recovery.
