With the depletion of land resources, the development of marine resources has become increasingly important. Facing the increasingly fierce competition for marine resources, the construction of high-performance modern ships is an important guarantee for the safety of ocean voyages. The construction of high-performance modern ships has higher and higher requirements for ship digitization and informatization. Ships need to be equipped with a large number of communication wires and cables. At present, most ship cables are of general-purpose structures. Traditional ship cables have relatively large self-weights and outer diameters, and can no longer meet the development needs of new ships.

[0022] Embodiment 1:
[0023] This embodiment provides a cable for ship engineering communication, as Figure 1 shown, including a network cable unit group, an electrical unit layer, a flame-retardant tape wrapping layer 10, an inner sheath layer 11, an armor layer 12, and an outer sheath layer 13 arranged in sequence from inside to outside.
[0024] The network cable unit group includes a plurality of network cable units, adjacent network cable units are in contact with each other, and the network cable units are located at the center of the cable after cabling; the network cable unit, as the key structure for the cable to realize communication and transmit information, provides signal data transmission services for instrument and meter devices.
[0025] In this embodiment, a Category 5e network cable unit is adopted. Four network cable units are cabled into a circular cable core. The gaps between the network cable units are filled with a high flame-retardant filling rope 3 and wrapped with a layer of light non-woven fabric, that is, the cable-forming tape wrapping layer 7.
[0026] The network cable unit includes a communication unit, a composite tape shielding layer 3, a cable sheath layer 4, and a braided shielding layer 5 arranged in sequence from inside to outside. Among them, the communication unit is formed by stranding a plurality of wire groups, and each wire group is formed by twisting two insulated wire cores.
[0027] In this embodiment, the communication unit includes four insulated wire cores. For the convenience of description, different colors are used to distinguish the insulated wire cores; as Figure 1 shown, the yellow and green insulated wire cores are twisted into a wire group, the red and blue insulated wire cores are twisted into a wire group, and the two wire groups are further twisted into a communication unit and wrapped with a layer of polyester tape + aluminum-plastic composite tape, that is, the composite tape shielding layer 3. A tinned copper wire is longitudinally placed on the inner aluminum foil surface of the composite tape shielding layer 3 as a drainage wire, and the diameter of the copper wire can be selected according to specific requirements, for example, the diameter is 0.51 mm.
[0028] Each insulated conductor core is composed of a network wire unit conductor 1 and a network wire unit insulation layer 2 wrapped around the outer side of the network wire unit conductor 1. In this embodiment, the network wire unit conductor 1 uses a Class 1 copper conductor, and the cross-sectional area of the network wire unit conductor 1 is 0.5 mm 2 ; The network wire unit insulation layer 2 is extruded by an extruder using irradiated cross-linked polyethylene insulating material, and the thinnest point is not less than 90% of the nominal thickness, and the concentricity does not exceed 1.4. The cable sheath layer 4 uses a 105°C military standard oil-resistant, halogen-free, low-smoke, flame-retardant irradiated cross-linked polyolefin, which has excellent high-temperature resistance and oil resistance, and good mechanical properties; the cable sheath layer 4 is formed by extrusion wrapping around the outer layer of the stranded communication unit, and the thinnest point of the sheath is not less than 80% of the nominal thickness, and the concentricity does not exceed 1.6.
[0029] A tinned copper wire is used on the outer side of the cable sheath layer 4 to form a braided shielding layer 5 by tinned copper wire braiding. In this embodiment, the network wire unit uses a double shielding of aluminum-plastic composite tape shielding + tinned copper wire braiding shielding (braiding density ≥ 88%). This shielding structure can shield the electromagnetic field generated when the cable is energized in the insulated conductor core, reduce electromagnetic interference to the outside, and at the same time improve the signal transmission stability.
[0030] The electrical unit is used for power transmission of electrical equipment. As the key structure of the electrical performance and power performance of the cable, the overall temperature resistance grade of the electrical unit can reach 200°C. As Figure 1 shown, the electrical unit layer is arranged between the cable-forming tape wrapping layer 7 and the flame-retardant tape wrapping layer 10, and is composed of a plurality of electrical units evenly distributed along the outer circumference of the cable-forming tape wrapping layer 7; the electrical unit includes an electrical unit conductor 8 and an electrical unit insulation layer 9, and a plurality of electrical unit conductors 8 are wrapped by the electrical unit insulation layer 9.

[0032] The electrical unit conductor 8 in this embodiment uses a Class 2 round copper conductor structure and is regularly stranded; the maximum direct current resistance of the conductor at 20°C complies with the provisions of GB / T 3956-2008. The cross-sectional area of the electrical unit conductor 8 is 0.75 mm 2 . The electrical unit insulation layer 9 is extruded by an extruder using FEP fluoroplastic insulating material, and the thinnest point is not less than 90% of the nominal thickness, and the concentricity does not exceed 1.4.
[0033] The electrical unit insulation layer 9 is black and is marked with digital codes (1# - 22#). The electrical units are arranged in ascending order of digital codes on the outside of the network wire unit cable core. The flame-retardant tape wrapping layer 10 uses a low-smoke, halogen-free, high-flame-retardant tape.
[0034] The inner sheath layer 11 is disposed between the flame-retardant tape wrapping layer 10 and the armor layer 12, and is used to protect the electrical unit and the network cable unit from mechanical damage. In this embodiment, the flame-retardant tape wrapping layer 10 is wrapped with a low-smoke, halogen-free, high-flame-retardant tape; the inner sheath layer 11 is extruded from polyether-based thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) with a Shore hardness of 85A, having excellent high and low temperature resistance, good mechanical properties, good flexibility, and the thinnest point of the inner sheath layer 11 is not less than 80% of the nominal thickness, and the concentricity does not exceed 1.6.
[0035] The armor layer 12 is woven from tinned copper wires with a braiding density ≥ 88%, which improves the anti-interference ability of the cable and enhances the mechanical properties of the cable; the outer sheath layer 13 is extruded from polyether-based thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) with a Shore hardness of 85A, having excellent high and low temperature resistance and good mechanical properties.
[0036] In this embodiment, the network cable unit group is formed into a circular cable core by multiple network cable units; and the electrical unit layer is composed of multiple electrical units evenly distributed between the cable wrapping tape layer 7 and the flame-retardant tape wrapping layer 10. The overall structure is compact, which can reduce the outer diameter of the cable. At the same time, it solves the problems of power supply for internal electrical equipment on ships and signal transmission access for communication instrument equipment.
