[0020] The present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the specific embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, these embodiments do not limit the present invention, and any structural, methodological, or functional changes made by a person skilled in the art based on these embodiments are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] If the utility model involves directions (e.g., up, down, left, right, front, back, outside, inside, etc.) when describing, it is necessary to define the directions involved, such as "In order to clearly express the positions and directions described in the utility model, the end close to the operator is the proximal end, and the end away from the operator is the distal end." Or define it with the paper as a reference, etc. Of course, if the positional relationship between the two is defined by mutual reference in the subsequent description, it does not need to be defined here.
[0022] A bending-resistant high-shield wind energy control cable, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bending-resistant high-shielded wind energy control cable includes a plurality of cable cores, each of which includes a conductor 1 and a conductor insulation layer 2 coated on the outside of the conductor 1, and a first wrapping layer 4, a braided layer 5, a second wrapping layer 6, an inner protective layer 7, a reinforcement layer 8 and an outer protective layer 9 are sequentially coated on the outside of the plurality of cable cores.
[0023] The conductor 1 is formed by twisting tinned copper wire and conductive carbon fiber. The conductive carbon fiber has excellent conductivity and extremely high tensile strength, which far exceeds traditional metal materials. This makes the cable core have better stability when subjected to external forces, as well as corrosion resistance, wear resistance, high temperature resistance, high strength, light weight and other advantages, which helps to reduce the overall weight of the cable core and extend the service life of the cable core. The tinned copper wire has the characteristics of anti-oxidation, high temperature resistance, strong flexibility, and excellent electrical properties. The overall strength and flexibility of the tinned copper wire are enhanced by the bundle twisting process; the tinned copper wire is combined with the high conductivity, high strength and low density of the conductive carbon fiber, so that the cable core has both excellent bearing capacity and maintains a relatively light weight, which is conducive to reducing the overall burden of the cable and adapting to various complex installation environments. The corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance of the conductive carbon fiber and the tinned copper wire jointly improve the service life and stability of the cable core.
[0024] As an embodiment of the present invention, the cross-sectional area of the conductor 1 is 0.75-2.5 mm 2, the conductive carbon fiber is located at the center of several bundles of stranded tinned copper wires. The tensile strength of the conductive carbon fiber reaches 4 GPa, the diameter of the tinned copper wire is 0.15 mm, and the elongation at break of the tinned copper wire is greater than or equal to 15%. The tinned copper wires are stranded into bundles according to a certain number of strands and pitches, and then the stranded tinned copper wires and the central conductive carbon fiber are arranged and stranded in a regular stranding method. The stranding pitch ratios from the inside to the outside are controlled to be 18 - 20 times in sequence, and the stranding direction is the same-direction stranding, so as to ensure that the structure of the conductor 1 is compact and the outer diameter is stable.
[0025] The conductor insulation layer 2 is a high-strength thermoplastic elastomer insulation layer. The thermoplastic elastomer has the high elasticity, high strength, and high resilience of rubber, and at the same time has the characteristics of convenient processing and a wide range of processing methods of ordinary plastics. On the basis of maintaining the original high elasticity, high strength, high resilience, etc. of the thermoplastic elastomer, the high-strength thermoplastic elastomer further improves its mechanical properties and durability. As an embodiment of the present invention, the tensile strength of the high-strength thermoplastic elastomer is ≥ 15 N / mm 2 , the elongation at break is ≥ 300%, and the Shore hardness is 82 HA. The conductor 1 and the conductor insulation layer 2 are closely and evenly bonded together.
[0026] When cabling, several of the above-mentioned cable cores are stranded together. The several cable cores do not contact each other, and polyester reinforcing yarns are filled between the several cable cores to improve the anti-extrusion and tensile properties. The pitch-diameter ratio of cabling is controlled within 8 - 10 times.
[0027] The first wrapping layer 4 is a non-woven wrapping tape. The first wrapping layer 4 is used to wind and tie the above-mentioned several cable cores to prevent the several cable cores from loosening and separating.
[0028] A reinforcing filler 3 is arranged between the first wrapping layer 4 and outside the conductor insulation layer 2. The reinforcing filler 3 is used to improve the stability of the cable. As an embodiment of the present invention, the reinforcing filler 3 adopts polyester reinforcing yarn. The polyester reinforcing yarn has the advantages of high strength and high wear resistance, can withstand a large tensile force. At the same time, the polyester reinforcing yarn performs well in terms of dimensional stability and wrinkle resistance and is not easily deformed.
[0029] As an embodiment of the present invention, the braided layer 5 is a tinned copper wire braided layer. The single wire diameter of the tinned copper wire used in the braided layer 5 is 0.2 mm, the braiding density is 85%, and the braiding angle is 40 - 45 degrees. The tinned copper wire braided layer has good electromagnetic shielding performance, can effectively reduce electromagnetic interference, and improve the operation stability and reliability. At the same time, the tinned copper wire braided layer has excellent oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance, and prolongs the service life. The braided structure makes the tinned copper wire braided layer have good flexibility and stretchability. The copper wire itself has good electrical conductivity, so that the braided layer 5 has a low resistance and loss when transmitting current.
[0030] The second wrapping layer 6 is a steel-plastic composite tape. As an embodiment of the present invention, the steel-plastic composite tape is composed of a single-sided steel strip and a composite ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer (EAA), which is a comprehensive product of rigid materials and flexible materials, has high strength and stiffness, and has a good shielding effect on interfering magnetic signals. The thickness of the steel-plastic composite tape is 0.2 mm, the strength is 350 MPa, and the elongation rate > 15%. The tinned copper wire braid layer and the steel-plastic composite tape enhance the tensile strength of the cable while also improving the anti-interference and electromagnetic radiation of the cable.
[0031] The inner sheath 7 is a silicone rubber inner sheath. The silicone rubber material is softer than ordinary rubber materials, so that the cable can have a buffering process when being extruded, avoiding affecting the internal cable core. As an embodiment of the present invention, the tensile strength of the silicone rubber inner sheath is 8 Mpa, and the elongation at break > 200%. The silicone rubber material has excellent heat resistance, low temperature resistance, and high resistivity, can maintain elasticity and stability at high temperatures, can still work at low temperatures, and can maintain a stable resistance value within a wide temperature and frequency range. At the same time, the silicone rubber material also has good processing performance, insulation performance, and certain flame retardancy and radiation resistance.
[0032] The strengthening layer 8 is a fine galvanized steel wire strengthening layer. The strengthening layer 8 is wound around the outer sheath 7 with 6 fine galvanized steel wires evenly, which can not affect the overall torsional and bending performance of the cable. At the same time, when the cable is subjected to torsional and bending, the fine galvanized steel wire strengthening layer can bear the tensile force, so that the tensile force transmitted to the inside of the cable core is reduced, and the anti-external mechanical damage ability of the cable is enhanced, preventing the cable from bending and deforming, thereby ensuring the normal operation and service life of the cable.
[0033] The outer sheath 9 is a high-strength polyether-type polyurethane outer sheath. The high-strength polyether-type polyurethane has good elasticity and flexibility, can maintain the stability of its shape and structure when the cable is bent or under external force, enhance the mechanical strength of the cable, protect key components such as the cable core and the braid layer 5 from external damage and erosion, reduce stress concentration and plastic deformation inside the cable. At the same time, the high-strength polyether-type polyurethane has excellent hydrolysis resistance, solvent resistance, wear resistance and cold resistance, can maintain the integrity and safety of the cable, and extend the service life of the cable. As an embodiment of the present invention, the tensile strength of the high-strength polyether-type polyurethane ≥ 30 N / mm 2 , the elongation at break ≥ 300%, and the tear strength of the large trouser-shaped cutter (tested according to GB / T529-2008 trouser-shaped test) ≥ 40 N / mm.
[0034] By providing three layers, namely the outer sheath 9, the strengthening layer 8, and the inner sheath 7, the flexibility of the cable is enhanced, ensuring the normal operation of the cable and extending its service life.
[0035] For the bend-resistant high-shielding wind energy control cable provided by the present utility model, by adding a conductive carbon fiber structure into the conductor 1, the repeated tensile property of the conductor 1 is enhanced, the stress on the tinned copper wires in the conductor 1 is reduced, and the phenomenon of broken cores is avoided. Meanwhile, during the repeated bending of the cable during torsion, the strengthening layer 8 plays a role in tensile resistance, and the inner sheath 7 plays a role in buffering extrusion, increasing the repeated bend resistance of the cable, solving the problem of broken cores after long-term use of the cable, improving the electromagnetic shielding effect of the cable, and ensuring the service life of the cable.
