BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0014] Figure 1 The utility model discloses a highly flame-retardant and fire-resistant non-shielded data cable. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0015] The technical solution of the utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0016] like Figure 1 As shown, the highly flame-retardant and fire-resistant non-shielded data cable of the utility model comprises: an insulating core wire 1, a flame-retardant cross skeleton 2, a fire-resistant layer 3, a water-blocking layer 4, an oxygen-isolating layer 5 and a flame-retardant sheath 6, the insulating core wire 1 comprises: a conductor 11, an inner insulating layer 12 and an outer insulating layer 13, the conductor 11 is formed by twisting a plurality of 23 / 24AWG oxygen-free annealed soft copper wires, the conductor 11 formed by twisting 23 / 24AWG oxygen-free annealed soft copper wires has good flexibility and conductivity, the inner insulating layer 12 is made of HDPE material, the outer insulating layer 13 is made of FRPE material, the inner insulating layer 12 and the outer The insulating layer 13 is double-layer co-extruded on the conductor 11, and the inner insulating layer 12, the outer insulating layer 13 and the conductor 11 are coaxially arranged. HDPE has good electrical insulation and dielectric strength. After the inner insulating layer 12 of HDPE material is coated on the conductor 11, it can withstand a large electric field strength without breakdown, thereby improving the protection of the conductor 11. FRPE has certain flame retardant properties and can effectively prevent the spread of flames in the event of a fire. The inner insulating layer 12 and the outer insulating layer 13 of the same insulating core wire 1 are the same color, and the inner insulating layer 12 and the outer insulating layer 13 of different insulating core wires 1 are different. Color, every two insulated core wires 1 are twisted into a pair of twisted wires, which is convenient for the staff to select the correct insulated core wire 1 by color when connecting the equipment, and can also correctly match the insulated core wire 1 according to the color of the insulating layer when replacing the damaged cable after a fire. A fire-resistant layer 3 is wrapped around the twisted wire, and the fire-resistant layer 3 is two layers of mica tape arranged for wrapping. The mica tape has high fire resistance and can remain stable at high temperatures, thereby protecting the insulated core wire 1 in the twisted wire from damage. Wrapping two layers of mica tape can further improve the protection of the insulated core wire 1. The two layers of mica tape The wrapping directions of the tapes are different, and the overlap rates of the two layers of mica tapes need to be maintained between 45% and 50%. The different wrapping directions of the two layers of mica tapes can enhance the mechanical strength of the twisted pair. When external forces act on the twisted pair, the two layers of mica tapes in different directions can better disperse the pressure and reduce the force directly acting on the insulated core wire 1 in the twisted pair, thereby protecting the insulated core wire 1 in the twisted pair. Maintaining the overlap rate between 45% and 50% can prevent the mica tape from causing structural damage due to expansion or contraction of the material at high temperatures, thereby maintaining the overall integrity of the twisted pair.

[0017] A water-blocking layer 4 is wrapped on the fire-resistant layer 3. The water-blocking layer 4 is a water-blocking tape. The water-blocking layer 4 expands when it meets water to achieve a water-blocking effect. The wrapping direction of the water-blocking layer 4 is opposite to the wrapping direction of the outer mica tape. The water-blocking layer 4 and the mica tape of the outer layer of the fire-resistant layer 3 are wrapped in reverse to further improve the mechanical strength of the twisted wire. The flame-retardant cross skeleton 2 is made of a mixture of HDPE material and aluminum hydroxide particles and then injection molded. The particle size of the aluminum hydroxide particles is less than 2μm. Although the flame-retardant cross skeleton 2 made of HDPE material has good wear resistance, toughness and electrical insulation, it is also flammable and easy to continue to burn in a fire. After aluminum hydroxide particles are mixed in PE, the flame retardant properties of aluminum hydroxide can be used to suppress the flammability of HDPE. A water-blocking rope 21 is filled in the center of the flame retardant cross skeleton 2, and a group of twisted wires are placed in the four grooves of the flame retardant cross skeleton 2. The groove width of the flame retardant cross skeleton 2 is the same as the outer diameter of the twisted wires, ensuring that the four groups of twisted wires can be tightly fixed on the flame retardant cross skeleton 2, improving the balance characteristics and anti-crosstalk between the four groups of twisted wires, and the twisting pitches of the four groups of twisted wires are different and not multiples, which can prevent signal resonance between the twisted wires, thereby ensuring the stability and clarity of signal transmission.

[0018] A first glass cloth tape layer 7 is wrapped around the flame retardant cross frame 2. The first glass cloth tape layer 7 fixes four sets of twisted wires in four grooves of the flame retardant cross frame 2. An oxygen barrier layer 5 is extruded on the first glass cloth tape layer 7. The oxygen barrier layer 5 is made of a mixture of HDPE material and aluminum hydroxide particles and then injection molded. The particle size of the aluminum hydroxide particles is less than 2μm. The thickness of the oxygen barrier layer 5 is between 1mm and 2mm. The oxygen barrier layer 5 is made of the same material as the flame retardant cross frame 2, so that the production cost can be reduced. A second glass cloth tape layer 8 is wrapped on the layer 5, and the wrapping direction of the second glass cloth tape layer 8 is opposite to the wrapping direction of the first glass cloth tape layer 7. A flame retardant sheath 6 is extruded on the second glass cloth tape layer 8. The flame retardant sheath 6 is made of a halogen-free cross-linked polyethylene material. The cross-linked polyethylene material can slow down the spread of flames. The halogen-free cross-linked polyethylene material does not produce harmful halogen gas when burning, which reduces the harm to the environment and human body, and helps to improve the visibility of the fire scene and increase the probability of escape.

[0019] When a fire occurs, if the flame is small or the flame is far away from the cable, the flame retardant sheath 6 in the cable will play a flame retardant role to extinguish the small flame, prevent the flame from spreading on the flame retardant sheath 6, expand the combustion range, and protect the components inside the cable from being affected by the flame; if the flame is large or the cable continues to burn, the flame retardant sheath 6 will not be able to withstand the burning and will be burned through. At this time, the aluminum hydroxide particles in the oxygen-isolating layer 5 and the flame-retardant cross skeleton 2 will decompose and release crystal water after being subjected to high-temperature radiation. The decomposed aluminum oxide protective layer, aluminum oxide is non-flammable and has a high melting point. The aluminum oxide protective layer can isolate oxygen and heat to prevent the fire from spreading. The released crystal water can, on the one hand, reduce the temperature inside the cable, and on the other hand, evaporate to form water vapor when in contact with the flame, diluting the oxygen in the cable and reducing the spread of the flame into the cable. The mica tape in the fire-resistant layer 3 is at high The warm environment protects the twisted wires, so that the insulated core wire 1 in the twisted wire can maintain stable communication capabilities during a fire. After the aluminum hydroxide particles in the oxygen-isolating layer 5 release the crystallization water, due to the obstruction of the first glass cloth tape layer 7, the crystallization water will be heated between the first glass cloth tape layer 7 and the second glass cloth tape layer 8 to form water vapor, diluting the oxygen between the first glass cloth tape layer 7 and the second glass cloth tape layer 8, thereby achieving a flame retardant effect. The crystallization water released by the aluminum hydroxide particles in the flame-retardant cross skeleton 2 will be absorbed by the water-blocking layer 4 and the water-blocking rope 21, and the water-blocking layer 4 will expand to compress and wrap around the twisted wire so that the insulated core wire 1 in the twisted wire is not affected by the crystallization water. When the expanded water-blocking layer 4 and the water-blocking rope 21 are subjected to high-temperature radiation, the polymer polymerized with water in the water-blocking layer 4 and the water-blocking rope 21 will decompose to form water vapor and carbon dioxide after being heated, thereby achieving a flame retardant effect. When using water to extinguish a fire, since the water-blocking layer 4 and the water-blocking rope 21 that have absorbed the crystallized water are not saturated, they will absorb a large amount of water and continue to expand when encountering water, thereby playing a water-blocking role and preventing the water during fire extinguishing from penetrating into the cable and affecting the communication performance of the insulated core wire 1.

[0020] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, ordinary technicians in the relevant field should understand that the specific implementation methods of the utility model can still be modified or replaced by equivalents, and any modification or equivalent replacement that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the utility model should be included in the scope of protection of the claims of the utility model.
