Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cables, in particular to a salt-fog proof cable assembly. Background Art

[0002] Salt spray refers to a dispersion system composed of tiny salt droplets in the atmosphere. It is highly corrosive and can easily form highly acidic metal salts with active metals, which can easily damage man-made equipment.

[0003] Cable assemblies are components used to connect and protect cables, including connectors, joints, pigtails, etc.

[0004] In sites near the sea, cables have to withstand salt spray corrosion all the time, because there are exposed metal and slots at the cable joints. The exposed metal is easily corroded by salt spray, and the slots are easy to allow air with salt spray to gather, so the corrosion of the joints is more serious. In addition, due to the influence of the sea breeze, the cable part is shaken by the sea breeze, and its joints are prone to loosening, causing the joints to fall off. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Example 1

[0028] Reference Figure 1-4 , which is the first embodiment of the utility model, provides a salt spray proof cable assembly, including a plug 1, the main body of the plug 1 is in the shape of a cylinder, and the metal rod 13 thereon is connected to the cable 11 at the rear side, one side of the plug 1 is fixedly connected to the cable 11, and the outer protective layer of the cable 11 includes an anti-corrosion layer, a waterproof, a fireproof coating, etc., and one side of the plug 1 is provided with a joint 12, the joint 12 is a regular hexagonal cylinder, three faces of which are used to install an exhaust check valve 28 for exhaust, and the other three faces are used to install and fix the plug 1, the joint 12 is used to connect with the plug 1, and the plug 1 is fixedly connected to the metal rod 13, and there are three metal rods 13, which are evenly fixed on the plug 1;

[0029] It also includes a salt spray protection structure arranged on the plug 1;

[0030] The anti-salt spray structure includes a sealing ring 21 arranged on the outside of the metal rod 13, an air outlet 22 fixed on the sealing ring 21, a total of three air outlets 22, evenly fixed on the middle side of the sealing ring 21, and the end of the air outlet 22 is a connected pipe, and a gas distribution pipe 23 is opened on the rear side of the air outlet 22. The gas distribution pipe 23 is used to connect the connecting pipes on the rear sides of each air outlet 22, and is used to transport the inert gas sent to the gas collection area 24 to each air outlet 22. The gas collection pipe 23 is arranged on one side of the gas distribution pipe 23. Area 24, the gas collection area 24 is connected to the air intake pipe 25, the air intake pipe 25 is arranged on one side of the air collection area 24, the air intake pipe 25 is connected to the air delivery block 26 outside the plug 1, the air delivery block 26 is fixed on the upper side of the air intake pipe 25, the air delivery block 26 is divided into a connecting part, one part is a pipeline connected to the air intake pipe 25, and the other part is a circular hole connected to the air intake check valve 27, the air intake check valve 27 is fixed on the inner side of the air delivery block 26, and the air intake check valve 27 can only allow gas to enter in the direction of the air delivery block 26.

[0031] A slot 14 is provided on the inner side of the connector 12 . The slot 14 is a circular groove corresponding to the position of the metal rod 13 . The connecting end 15 is used to contact the metal rod 13 and is a metal conductor. The connecting end 15 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the slot 14 .

[0032] An air outlet check valve 28 is provided on the outside of the slot 14, and the air outlet check valve 28 is connected to the inside of the slot 14. The air outlet check valve 28 connects the inside of the slot 14 and the outside atmosphere. The air outlet check valve 28 can only allow the gas from the slot 14 to pass toward the outside, and the air inlet check valve 27 and the air outlet check valve 28 can be closed separately.

[0033] The sealing ring 21 is divided into two layers. The middle side is an air inlet duct connected to the air outlet 22 , and the outer side is a rubber ring for sealing the slot 14 . A mounting structure is provided on the plug 1 .

[0034] During use, first connect the plug 1 and the connector 12. At this time, the sealing ring 21 will be stuck in the slot 14, so as to seal the internal space of the slot 14 as much as possible. Although the internal space of the slot 14 has been sealed as much as possible, as long as the plug 1 is plugged in and out, some salt mist will always enter it. Therefore, after the plug 1 and the connector 12 are connected, it is necessary to pass an inert gas into the air intake check valve 27. The gas does not react with metal and is heavier than the salt mist gas. Therefore, the gas will first pass through the air intake check valve 27 into the gas delivery block 26, and then enter the air intake pipe 25 from the gas delivery block 26. The inert gas entering the air intake pipe 25 will first enter the gas collection The inert gas enters the slot 14 and then is transported to the terminal connecting pipes of each gas outlet 22 by the gas distribution pipe 23 connected to the gas converging zone 24, and finally is transported to the slot 14 by the gas outlet 22. The inert gas entering the slot 14 will displace the salt mist gas because it is heavier than the salt mist gas, so that the salt mist gas is discharged from the gas outlet check valve 28. After the inert gas is continuously introduced for a period of time, after ensuring that the introduction time is long enough, the gas inlet check valve 27 and the gas outlet check valve 28 can be closed to complete the storage of the internal inert gas, so that the slot 14 is filled with inert gas, which can prevent the sealing ring 21 from being entered by salt mist gas again, and can also ensure that there is no salt mist gas inside.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Reference Figure 1-5, which is the second embodiment of the utility model. This embodiment is different from the first embodiment in that: the mounting structure includes a mounting plate 31 fixed on the plug 1, the mounting plate 31 is fixed on the surface of the plug 1 on which the metal rod 13 is installed, and is 60° apart from the metal rod 13. There are also three of them, which are evenly arranged on the plug 1, and the mounting plate 31 is divided into two parts, the part close to the plug 1 is a straight plate, and the part away from the plug 1 is a semicircular plate, a threaded hole 32 is opened on the mounting plate 31, and the threaded hole 32 is opened at the connection between the semicircular plate and the straight plate of the mounting plate 31, and a limiting groove 33 is opened on the joint 12, and the position of the limiting groove 33 corresponds to the position of the mounting plate 31, and there are also three limiting grooves 33, which are evenly arranged on the joint 12.

[0037] A thread groove 34 is provided on the joint 12, and the thread groove 34 is provided in the limiting groove 33. The thread of the thread groove 34 and the thread in the threaded hole 32 are the same thread, that is, the pitch and direction are the same. A screw 35 is provided on the upper side of the joint 12, and the screw 35 is used to connect the mounting plate 31 and the joint 12.

[0038] During use, when the plug 1 is inserted into the connector 12, the metal rod 13 and the connecting end 15 are in contact. In this state, the mounting plate 31 is located in the limiting groove 33, and the positions of the threaded hole 32 and the threaded groove 34 correspond. At this time, the screw 35 is installed into the threaded hole 32 and the threaded groove 34 to lock the position of the mounting plate 31 and the connector 12, so that external forces such as sea breeze cannot cause the plug 1 to shake due to shaking, thereby preventing the plug 1 from falling off from the connector 12 due to external force.

[0039] The remaining structures are the same as those of Example 1.

[0040] 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.
