Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of heat shrinkable tubes, in particular to a shielding heat shrinkable tube. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of modern electronic devices, the protection requirements for transmission lines such as wires and cables are getting higher and higher. Especially in high-frequency and high-power application scenarios, electromagnetic interference (EMI) has become one of the main factors affecting the normal operation of devices. Although traditional heat shrinkable tubes can provide basic insulation and physical protection, they often cannot effectively shield electromagnetic interference. In addition, harsh working environments also pose higher requirements on heat shrinkable tubes, such as high temperature, humidity, and corrosive environments, etc.

[0003] To address these problems, some heat shrinkable tubes with shielding functions have been developed in the existing technology. However, these heat shrinkable tubes usually have only one or two metal shielding layers, with limited shielding effects, and they may not have sufficient mechanical strength, high-temperature resistance, moisture-proof, and fire-proof capabilities. Therefore, developing a shielding heat shrinkable tube with excellent comprehensive performance has become an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the existing technology and provide a shielding heat shrinkable tube to solve the problems in the background art.

[0005] In view of this, the utility model provides a shielding heat shrinkable tube, including

[0006] a tube body made of heat shrinkable material, with a metal shielding layer coated on the outer layer of the tube body. The metal shielding layer is composed of three metal layers, which are aluminum foil, nickel foil, and silver-plated copper foil in sequence from the outside to the inside;

[0007] an insulating layer is arranged between the metal shielding layer and the tube body, and the insulating layer is made of polytetrafluoroethylene material;

[0008] a reinforcing layer is arranged between the insulating layer and the tube body, and the reinforcing layer is woven from high-strength glass fibers.

[0009] Optionally, the surface of the silver-plated copper foil included in the metal shielding layer is covered with an antioxidant coating, and the antioxidant coating is made of titanium dioxide nanoparticles.

[0010] Optionally, a moisture-proof layer is arranged on the inner wall of the tube body, and the moisture-proof layer is made of silicone rubber.

[0011] Optionally, a protective layer is laid on the outer wall of the metal shielding layer, and the protective layer is made of wear-resistant polyimide film.

[0012] Optionally, the surface of the protective layer is coated with a fluorescent marking coating.

[0013] Optionally, a fireproof and heat-insulating layer is laid on the inner side of the tube body and on the inner wall of the moisture-proof layer, and the fireproof and heat-insulating layer is made of ceramic fiber material.

[0014] As can be seen from the above technical solutions, the embodiments of the present utility model have the following advantages:

[0015] 1. A shielding heat shrinkable tube of the present utility model, through the structural arrangement of adopting a three-layer metal shielding layer, including aluminum foil, nickel foil and silver-plated copper foil, can effectively shield electromagnetic interference and improve the shielding efficiency. And the reinforcing layer built in the tube body is woven from high-strength glass fibers, significantly improving the mechanical strength and durability of the product. At the same time, the insulating layer uses a high-performance polytetrafluoroethylene material, which can maintain good dielectric properties in high-temperature environments, ensuring electrical insulation between the metal shielding layer and the tube body.

[0016] 2. A shielding heat shrinkable tube of the present utility model adopts a moisture-proof layer, a fireproof and heat-insulating layer, a protective layer and an antioxidant coating, thereby ensuring comprehensive protection measures. The moisture-proof layer effectively prevents moisture from entering and avoids electrical failures. The fireproof and heat-insulating layer prevents high temperature from damaging internal wires or sensitive components. The antioxidant coating effectively prevents the oxidation of the silver-plated layer and extends the service life.

[0017] Moreover, the protective layer is made of wear-resistant polyimide film, and the surface is coated with a fluorescent marking coating, which not only protects the entire shielding heat shrinkable tube from external wear, but also facilitates the identification and positioning of the heat shrinkable tube under low-light conditions.

[0018] These features and advantages of the present utility model will be detailedly disclosed in the following specific embodiments and drawings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0030] A reinforcement layer 2 is provided between the insulating layer 3 and the tube body 1 , and the reinforcement layer 2 is woven from high-strength glass fibers.

[0031] It should be noted that the pipe body 1 is made of heat shrinkable material, preferably polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or polyolefins and other materials with good heat shrinkage performance. The reinforcement layer 2 is woven from high-strength glass fibers to improve the mechanical strength and durability of the overall structure. The insulation layer 3 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) material to ensure the electrical insulation performance between the metal shielding layer 4 and the pipe body 1.

[0032] The preferred thickness of the aluminum foil 41 is about 0.05 mm, which is used for preliminary electromagnetic wave shielding; the preferred thickness of the nickel foil 42 is about 0.03 mm, which increases the shielding effect and improves the corrosion resistance; the preferred thickness of the silver-plated copper foil 43 is about 0.02 mm, and the thickness of the silver plating layer is about 0.002 mm, which further enhances the shielding effectiveness and reduces the contact resistance through the good conductivity of silver.

[0033] In some embodiments, the surface of the silver-plated copper foil 43 included in the metal shielding layer 4 is covered with an antioxidant coating.

[0034] It should be noted that an antioxidant coating made of titanium dioxide nanoparticles is covered on the inner surface of the silver-plated copper foil 43 to prevent the silver-plated layer from oxidizing.

[0035] In some embodiments, a moisture-proof layer 7 is provided on the inner wall of the tube body 1. The moisture-proof layer 7 is made of silicone rubber and has a thickness of 0.05 mm, which can effectively prevent moisture from entering.

[0036] It should be noted that the moisture-proof layer 7 is made of silicone rubber material, which can effectively prevent moisture from entering the heat-shrinkable tube.

[0037] In some embodiments, a protective layer 5 is laid on the outer wall of the metal shielding layer 4. The protective layer 5 is made of wear-resistant polyimide film. A fluorescent marking coating 6 is coated on the surface of the protective layer 5.

[0038] It should be noted that the protective layer 5 is made of wear-resistant polyimide film to protect the entire shielded heat-shrinkable tube from external abrasion.

[0041] Working principle: The tube body 1 is made of heat-shrinkable material, so it will shrink when heated and tightly fit on the wire or other components to be protected. The reinforcing layer 2 is woven from high-strength glass fibers to improve the mechanical strength and durability of the overall structure and ensure the integrity of the tube body 1 even in harsh environments. The insulating layer 3 ensures electrical insulation between the metal shielding layer 4 and the tube body 1, and at the same time has good high-temperature resistance. The metal shielding layer 4 is composed of three metal layers, which are aluminum foil 41, nickel foil 42, and silver-plated copper foil 43 from the outside to the inside. The aluminum foil 41 is mainly used for preliminary electromagnetic wave shielding, the nickel foil 42 increases the shielding effect and improves the corrosion resistance, and the silver-plated copper foil 43 further enhances the shielding efficiency and reduces the contact resistance.
