DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0018] In the drawings, the same reference numerals all refer to the same components.

[0019] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the utility model provides a temperature-sensitive fireproof cable, comprising a plurality of cable cores 1, any two adjacent cable cores 1 are arranged tangent to each other, a temperature measuring unit 2 is arranged in the gap between the plurality of cable cores 1, a first insulating layer 3 is arranged on the outer surface of each cable core 1, a first fire-resistant layer 4 is arranged on the outer surface of the first insulating layer 3, a filling layer 5 is arranged on the outer surface of the plurality of cable cores 1, an outer protective layer is arranged on the outer side of the filling layer 5, and a second optical fiber temperature sensor 11 and a third optical fiber temperature sensor 12 are arranged on the outer protective layer.

[0020] In this embodiment, the outer surface of each cable core 1 is coated with a first insulating layer 3 and a first fire-resistant layer 4 in sequence. A temperature measuring unit 2 is arranged along the length direction of the cable core 1 in the gap between a group of three adjacent cable cores 1. The temperature measuring unit 2 can detect the operating temperature inside the cable core 1, which is convenient for the staff to monitor and prevent the cable core 1 from overheating after power is turned on. The outer protective layer protects the outer sides of the multiple cable cores 1, and a second optical fiber temperature sensor 11 and a third optical fiber temperature sensor 12 are arranged on the outer protective layer. The third optical fiber temperature sensor 12 is arranged on the surface of the outer protective layer. The outer temperature of the fireproof cable can be detected by the third optical fiber temperature sensor 12. If the temperature on one side is too high, there may be a fire near this area, which can help the staff to determine whether there is a fire; the second optical fiber temperature sensor 11 is arranged in the outer protective layer. If there is a fire near the fireproof cable, the third optical fiber temperature sensor 12 may fail due to factors such as high temperature or open flame, and the temperature measuring unit 2 is located in the center of the fireproof cable, and the temperature detection error near the outer surface of the fireproof cable is too large. The second optical fiber temperature sensor 11 protected in the outer protective layer can extend the time of temperature detection near the outer surface of the fireproof cable, which is convenient for the staff to estimate the time that the fireproof cable can last in the above-mentioned environment through the temperature, thereby facilitating the staff to judge the time of power failure due to cable damage, and also helps to avoid it when extinguishing the fire.

[0021] Furthermore, the outer protective layer includes a second insulating layer 6, a thermal insulation layer 7, an oxygen isolation layer 8, a second fire-resistant layer 9 and a protective layer 10. The second insulating layer 6 is arranged on the outer surface of the filling layer 5, the thermal insulation layer 7 is arranged on the outer surface of the second insulating layer 6, the oxygen isolation layer 8 is arranged on the outer surface of the thermal insulation layer 7, the second fire-resistant layer 9 is arranged on the outer surface of the oxygen isolation layer 8, and the protective layer 10 is arranged on the outer surface of the second fire-resistant layer 9.

[0022] Furthermore, a second optical fiber temperature sensor 11 is provided between the heat insulation layer 7 and the oxygen isolation layer 8, and a third optical fiber temperature sensor 12 is provided on the outer surface of the protective layer 10. The third optical fiber temperature sensor 12 is fixed to the surface of the protective layer 10 by a clamp.

[0023] In this embodiment, the thermal insulation layer 7 is arranged on the side close to the cable core 1 to reduce the impact on the temperature measured by the second optical fiber temperature sensor 11 and provide thermal insulation protection for the cable core 1. The oxygen isolation layer 8 and the second fire-resistant layer 9 play a flame retardant role, thereby extending the duration of temperature detection by the second optical fiber temperature sensor 11.

[0024] Furthermore, the temperature measuring unit 2 includes a first optical fiber temperature sensor 201 and multiple brackets 202. The multiple brackets 202 are arranged in the gaps between the corresponding multiple cable cores 1 and are adapted to the gaps between the multiple cable cores 1. The optical fiber of the first optical fiber temperature sensor 201 is arranged on the multiple brackets 202.

[0025] In this embodiment, the bracket 202 has three fulcrums, each of which contacts the first fire-resistant layer 4 on a corresponding cable core 1. The optical fiber of the first optical fiber temperature sensor 201 passes through the opening at the center of the bracket 202, thereby detecting the temperature near the cable core 1.

[0026] Furthermore, the first insulating layer 3 and the second insulating layer 6 are both PVC material layers, the first fire-resistant layer 4 and the second fire-resistant layer 9 are both ceramic silicone rubber layers, the filling layer 5 is fire-resistant wool, the oxygen isolation layer 8 is a ceramic polyolefin layer, and the heat insulation layer 7 is a high-temperature glass fiber cloth layer.

[0027] In this embodiment, the PVC material layer, the ceramic silicone rubber layer, the ceramic polyolefin layer and the high-temperature glass fiber cloth layer are all made of existing technologies.

[0028] In the present invention, the first optical fiber temperature sensor 201, the second optical fiber temperature sensor 11 and the third optical fiber temperature sensor 12 all adopt the optical fiber Bragg grating temperature sensor of the prior art (temperature and strain simultaneously cause the optical fiber Bragg grating coupling wavelength to move, so that the temperature and strain cannot be distinguished by measuring the optical fiber Bragg grating coupling wavelength movement). The output ends of the above three optical fiber temperature sensors are connected to an external photoelectric conversion module, and the optical signals of the optical fiber temperature sensors are converted into electrical signals through the photoelectric conversion module and then input into a computer for processing.

[0029] The utility model is a temperature-sensitive fireproof cable. The first optical fiber temperature sensor and the third optical fiber temperature sensor are used to detect the cable core and outer surface temperatures of the cable respectively, so as to facilitate monitoring of the operating temperature of the cable. By arranging a second optical fiber temperature sensor between the heat insulation layer and the oxygen insulation layer, the temperature of the cable can be monitored when the third optical fiber temperature sensor fails under conditions such as high temperature or open flame, thereby extending the temperature measurement time of the cable under special circumstances and increasing the reliability of the temperature measurement of the fireproof cable.

[0030] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
