Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of communication optical cables, and specifically relates to an anti-chemical corrosion optical cable tearing rope filling structure. Background Technique

[0002] A communication optical cable is a communication line that uses optical fibers as a transmission medium. It consists of multiple optical fibers arranged and combined into a cable core according to a specific structure and is wrapped by a sheath. Some types of optical cables may also include an additional outer protective layer.

[0003] After a large number of retrievals, the publication number is CN217085363U, which discloses an anti-biting underground communication optical cable, including an installation sleeve. A plurality of rubber plates are installed inside the installation sleeve, a plurality of plastic sleeves are sleeved on the rubber plates, a plurality of optical fibers are installed inside the plastic sleeves, a filler is placed inside the plastic sleeves, an insulating layer is provided on the installation sleeve, a soft rubber sheath is sleeved on the insulating layer, and a protection mechanism is installed on the soft rubber sheath.

[0004] When a mouse or reptile bites the optical cable, the drug inside the rubber capsule can drive away the mouse, and it can play a good role in protecting the optical fibers inside the optical cable during use. However, when the optical cable is buried deeply, sometimes a certain degree of force needs to be applied to pull the optical cable. During this process, the overall structure of the optical cable will be deformed to a certain extent, resulting in the situation that the optical fibers inside the optical cable are broken under tension. Therefore, an anti-chemical corrosion optical cable tearing rope filling structure is needed to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an anti-chemical corrosion optical cable tearing rope filling structure, which has the advantage of improving the tensile performance of the optical cable during laying, and solves the problem that the internal optical fibers of the optical cable are easily broken when subjected to tensile force.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: an anti-chemical corrosion optical cable tearing rope filling structure, including a central strengthening member, a protective sleeve is coated on the outside of the central strengthening member, and optical fiber bundles are distributed in a circular array on the outside of the central strengthening member inside the protective sleeve.

[0012] Preferably, a shielding layer is provided on the inner side of the protective sleeve, and the shielding layer is designed with a plastic-coated aluminum tape material. The outer side of the shielding layer is provided with anti-skid patterns that are different from the penetration direction of the central reinforcement, and the shielding layer is wrapped with yarn on the side opposite to the cable core filler.

The shielding layer is wrapped with yarn on the side opposite to the cable core filler, which further enhances the stability and integrity of the structure.

[0013] Preferably, the outer side of the optical fiber bundle is covered with a sleeve, and the inner side of the sleeve is filled with an inner core filler, and the inner core filler is designed with aramid fiber material, and adjacent optical fibers in the optical fiber bundle are separated by the inner core filler. In the design, the inner side of the sleeve covered with the outer side of the optical fiber bundle is filled with an inner core filler made of aramid fiber material. This design not only separates adjacent optical fibers in the optical fiber bundle, but also provides additional tensile strength and protection, ensuring that the optical fiber can maintain stable performance in various environments.

[0014] Preferably, the protective sleeve is designed with a soft rubber material, and the four sharp corners inside the protective sleeve are not in contact with the central reinforcement. The protective sleeve is designed with a soft rubber material, which provides excellent elasticity and chemical corrosion resistance. The design of the four sharp corners inside the protective sleeve cleverly avoids contact with the central reinforcement, thereby reducing internal stress concentration and improving the durability of the optical cable.

The cable core filler fills the gaps between the filling ropes, optical fiber bundles and the protective sleeve, further providing buffering protection, absorbing and dispersing forces, and preventing the optical fibers from breaking due to pulling. At the same time, the central strengthening member is located inside the protective sleeve, which can allow a certain degree of relative movement during the stretching process, reducing the stress concentration on the optical fibers, achieving the effect of improving the tensile performance of the optical cable during laying.

[0027] Specifically, the central strengthening member 6 serves as the core support of the optical cable and is made of high-strength materials, thereby improving the overall tensile strength and structural stability of the optical cable. The protective sleeve 1 is arranged on the outermost side of the optical cable to play a preliminary protection role and prevent external factors from damaging the internal structure. The optical fiber bundles 5 are distributed around the central strengthening member 6 in a circular array, and the filling rope 4 is arranged between adjacent optical fiber bundles 5 and is made of polypropylene hollow tube material, which is light and has a certain elasticity, and can play a buffering role when stressed. The cross-shaped design of the protective sleeve 7 helps to disperse the lateral force in the direction of the filling rope 4, reducing the lateral tension received by the optical fiber bundles 5. The core filler 3 is filled in the gaps between the filling rope 4, the optical fiber bundles 5 and the protective sleeve 7 to further provide buffering protection, absorb and disperse forces, and prevent the optical fiber from breaking due to pulling. At the same time, the central strengthening member 6 is located inside the protective sleeve 7, so that a certain degree of relative movement is allowed during the stretching process, reducing the stress concentration on the optical fiber, and achieving the effect of improving the tensile performance of the optical cable during laying.

[0028] Embodiment 2

[0029] In order to improve the lateral force that the optical cable can withstand, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, in this embodiment, the outer wall of the central strengthening member 6 contacts but is not fixedly connected to the four obtuse angles on the inner side of the protective sleeve 7, and the central strengthening member 6 is designed with polyester aramid fiber material.

A binding yarn is wrapped around the side of the shielding layer 2 opposite to the cable core filler 3, further enhancing the structural stability and integrity.

[0032] Furthermore, the protective sleeve 7 is designed with a soft rubber material. None of the four acute angles inside the protective sleeve 7 are in contact with the central strengthening member 6. In the design, the protective sleeve 7 is made of soft rubber material, providing excellent elasticity and chemical corrosion resistance. The design of the four acute angles inside the protective sleeve 7 cleverly avoids contact with the central strengthening member 6, thereby reducing internal stress concentration and improving the durability of the optical cable.
