Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of power transmission, in particular to a compact aluminum alloy cable. Background Art

[0002] As one of the largest supporting industries in the national economy, wires and cables are an indispensable part of the power transmission and transformation equipment system and the foundation of various industries. They are widely used in large power stations and power transmission lines, airports, subways, river crossings, sea crossings and other occasions. They are known as the "blood vessels" and "nerves" of the national economy and are closely related to the development of the national economy. With the continuous development of urbanization in my country and the continuous improvement of industrial level, the power consumption and quality of electricity consumption have also increased year by year, and the compactness and lightness of cables have been required in different application occasions.

[0003] As we all know, the main conductor material of wires and cables in my country is copper, which has a relatively high price. As a conductor material, aluminum is somewhat different from copper. For this reason, we added a certain amount of Fe, Cu and other trace elements to pure aluminum to improve its mechanical and electrical properties, and made a new type of aluminum alloy conductive material. We invented a compact aluminum alloy cable with aluminum alloy as the conductor.

[0004] At present, most cables use copper and aluminum conductors to form insulated cores with extruded polymer insulation. Multiple insulated cores are twisted together into cables, and then a sheath with corresponding functions is set on the outer layer. There are gaps between the insulated cores of such cables, which need to be filled. The space utilization rate is not high, the outer diameter of the cable is large, and the cable structure is unstable. When the filling is not full or squeezed by external force, the insulated core is easily displaced and deformed, which affects the long-term stable operation of the cable. The present invention uses an aluminum alloy conductor, and the first phase conductor adopts a profile structure, and polypropylene (PP) insulation is extruded on its outer side. Then, a Z-shaped aluminum alloy single wire is concentrically wound around this phase insulated core as the second phase conductor. The Z-shaped single wires are embedded in each other, the structure is stable, and the surface is smooth and round. An insulating layer is extruded on its outer layer to form the second phase insulated core together. Then, the third phase insulated core is formed in sequence according to this method, and the overall concentric structure is formed. Finally, a layer of halogen-free low-smoke flame-retardant outer sheath is extruded as a protective layer. The present invention greatly reduces the outer diameter of the cable, facilitates the installation and laying of the cable, and improves the stability of the cable structure.

[0005] Conventional power cable insulation mostly uses polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) materials. PVC contains halogen Cl, which will produce HCl gas during production and combustion, causing harm to the human body and polluting the environment. XLPE needs to undergo a cross-linking reaction, which has a large energy loss and produces by-products during the cross-linking process, which affects the life of the cable body. At the same time, the cross-linked polyethylene material cannot be recycled and reused, and its subsequent processing is a difficult problem, which will bring huge challenges to the environment. The present invention uses modified polypropylene (PP) insulation material, which has higher heat resistance and mechanical performance than PVC and XLPE, and does not require cross-linking, and does not produce any by-products, which greatly reduces energy consumption. At the same time, it can be recycled and reused, and is very environmentally friendly.

[0006] Conventional cable conductors are mostly tightly compressed circular structures, with gaps, edges and corners on the outer surface, which affect the extrusion of the insulation layer. In severe cases, it can cause local heating of the cable body and breakdown and other faults. Utility Model Content

[0010] Furthermore, the first phase line conductor includes an innermost circular conductor and multiple layers of trapezoidal cross-section conductors tightly surrounding the circular conductor.

[0011] Furthermore, a first phase insulating layer is provided on the outermost layer of the first phase type wire, and a second phase Z-shaped conductor layer is provided outside the first phase insulating layer, tightly surrounding its outer peripheral wall and mutually embedded;
