Description
Technical Field

[0027] Figure 1 The utility model is a structural schematic diagram of a pipeline-reinforced rat-proof leather line optical cable. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and implementations. It is to be understood that the specific implementations described herein are only used to explain the relevant content, rather than to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts related to the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0029] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model discloses a pipeline reinforced anti-rat leather cable, comprising a first sheath 1, an optical fiber unit 2, a first reinforcement member 3, a water blocking layer 4, a second reinforcement member 5 and a second sheath 6. The first sheath 1 is a butterfly sheath, a number of optical fiber units 2 are arranged at the center of the first sheath 1, and the optical fiber unit is a colored optical fiber. Preferably, the number of optical fiber units is 2-6, and two first reinforcement members 3 are respectively arranged at the left and right ends of the first sheath 1; the water blocking layer 4 adopts a polyester non-woven fabric composite polymer absorbent resin layer, and the water blocking layer 4 and the second sheath 6 are sequentially arranged on the periphery of the first sheath 1 from the inside to the outside, and a number of second reinforcement members 5, preferably 10-12, are tightly surrounded and arranged between the water blocking layer 4 and the second sheath 6; the first reinforcement member 3 and the second reinforcement member 5 are FPR non-metallic reinforcement members. The first sheath 1 and the second sheath 6 adopt LSZH low-smoke halogen-free sheath, which can play a good flame retardant role.
[0031] The FPR non-metallic reinforcement member adopted in the utility model can reduce the overall weight of the optical cable and reduce the laying cost while strengthening the strength of the optical cable compared to metal reinforcement members such as steel wire. On the other hand, the second reinforcement member arranged around the optical fiber unit also plays a role in protecting the optical fiber unit. When a rat bite occurs, the second sheath is first bitten, and then the second reinforcement member is bound to be bitten from any direction. Since the second reinforcement member is an FPR non-metallic reinforcement member, it is a composite material prepared by a pultrusion process with resin as a matrix material and glass fiber as a reinforcing material, which are mixed in proportion. The glass fiber contained in the FPR component can also stimulate the oral cavity of the rodent when bitten by a rat, thereby achieving the purpose of preventing rat bites. Compared with the traditional glass fiber yarn rodent prevention measures, the second reinforcement member adopted in the utility model can not only stimulate the oral cavity of rodents, but also has the following beneficial effects: 1. It strengthens the strength of the optical cable, reduces the overall weight of the optical cable, and reduces the laying cost; 2. It overcomes the shortcomings of glass fiber yarn, and does not produce fine glass fibers during the production and preparation of optical cables. Therefore, it is not easy to be inhaled by the human body, creating a good air working environment for production workers.
[0032] According to at least one embodiment of the utility model, an air chamber 61 is distributed inside the second sheath 6, and the air chamber is filled with gas, and a microcapsule containing a rodent-proofing agent is arranged in the air chamber 61. The second sheath 6 is used as an outer sheath, and when a rat bites, it is the first place to be bitten by the rat. After the microcapsules located in the air chamber are bitten by the rat, they have a medicinal effect on rodents, thereby preventing rat bites. The bubble structure distributed in the second sheath 6 of the utility model not only provides a microenvironment for the rodent-proofing agent, but also effectively reduces the overall weight of the optical cable. In order to avoid the spread of the smell of the rodent-proofing agent in the workshop, the utility model adopts microcapsule technology to wrap and seal the rodent-proofing agent in advance, which can also protect the workers well. The air chamber is filled with gas, which can provide air pressure for the air chamber, and can also ensure the overall roundness of the optical cable, preventing the second sheath from being sunken from the outside to the inside in the place where there is an air chamber, causing collapse when producing the coiled finished product or during the construction process.
[0033] According to at least one embodiment of the utility model, the optical cable further comprises a cable opening rope 7, which is arranged between the second sheath 6 and the water blocking layer 4. The cable opening rope provided in the utility model can make it faster and easier for operators to peel off the optical cable of the utility model.
[0034] According to at least one embodiment of the present invention, the center of the reinforcement is a hollow structure. The reinforcement of the present invention adopts a hollow structure, which not only further reduces its own weight, but also provides sufficient strength.
[0035] According to at least one embodiment of the present invention, V-shaped grooves 11 are provided on the upper and lower sides of the waist of the first sheath 1. The present invention adopts a V-shaped groove structure to facilitate stripping of the butterfly optical cable.
[0036] The utility model also discloses a method for preparing a pipeline-reinforced rat-proof leather-wire optical cable, comprising the following steps:
[0037] S1, pulling the first reinforcement unit and the optical fiber unit, combining multiple units into a cable, and obtaining a first layer of cables;
[0038] S2, setting an inner sheath extrusion die, extruding a first sheath, and extruding an inner sheath on the outer periphery of the first layer of cables to obtain a second layer of cables;
[0039] S3, pulling the second reinforcement unit, the second layer cable, and the water blocking unit, combining multiple units into a cable to obtain a third layer cable;
[0040] S4, setting an outer sheath extrusion die, arranging an airway in the outer sheath extrusion die and introducing airflow; controlling the airflow rate, preferably, controlling the air pressure at 2-6 bar, introducing rodent-proofing agent microcapsules into the airway, extruding the second sheath, and extruding an outer sheath containing an air cavity around the third layer of cable, wherein the air cavity contains rodent-proofing agent microcapsules, to obtain a pipeline-reinforced rodent-proofing cable.
[0041] According to at least one embodiment of the present invention, the air chamber is filled with gas to form a certain air pressure on the side wall of the air chamber to prevent the second sheath from collapsing. Preferably, the filling gas can be air, or an inert gas such as nitrogen.
[0042] According to at least one embodiment of the utility model, the preparation method of the rodent-proofing agent microcapsule comprises: using chitosan as a coating material, dissolving the rodent-proofing agent in an emulsifier such as sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate to form a coating, dropping the coating into a 30-50° C. coating material aqueous solution to form a primary capsule, and then using a cross-linking agent such as glutaraldehyde to harden the shell of the primary capsule, and drying to obtain a rodent-proofing agent microcapsule. The rodent-proofing agent is a commercially available rodent-proofing agent, for example, a rodent-proofing agent containing one or more ingredients of bitter element, terpenoid compound monomer, sodium diphacin, and capsaicin.
[0043] When the optical cable is actually laid, it is laid in a pipeline, which can be an outdoor pipeline or an indoor pipeline. When the optical fiber equipment needs to be connected, the second sheath is torn off by using the cable to connect the optical fiber unit to the optical fiber equipment. The optical cable of the utility model can be used in harsh environments, such as dark pipelines, mines, tunnels, buried underground, and power cable troughs. The outer diameter of the optical cable of the utility model is 6.5-7.5cm, preferably 7.0cm. Compared with the outer diameter of the normal outdoor optical cable of 9.8cm, the outer diameter of the utility model is smaller, the contact area is reduced, and non-metallic materials are used, so the weight is lighter, which is convenient for on-site construction, especially suitable for pipeline construction occasions. When a rat bite occurs, the rat-proofing agent contained in the outer sheath (second sheath) can exert its efficacy after being bitten by rodents, achieving the first-level rat-proofing effect; if the outer sheath continues to be bitten, the second reinforcement member will be exposed. The tightly packed second reinforcement member is arranged around the outer periphery of the optical fiber unit, so no matter which direction the bite is made, the second reinforcement member will be bitten first. The second reinforcement member is made of a material containing glass fiber, which can stimulate the oral cavity of the rodent, achieving the second-level rat-proofing effect. Therefore, the utility model can greatly reduce the occurrence of rat bites damaging communication optical cables through the second-level rat-proofing measures.
