Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of cable technology, and in particular to a cable used in automated processing. Background Art

[0002] The development of automated production technology has brought significant economic benefits to numerous industries. Especially for repetitive tasks, automated processing not only improves efficiency but also reduces costs. Cables are an indispensable component in fields such as communications and healthcare, and their production efficiency directly impacts the growth of these sectors. Therefore, cables that can be automated are a highly sought-after product in the market.

[0003] At present, the traditional processing method of multi-core cables mostly adopts the method of cable twisting, that is, multiple core wires are placed on the wire-laying machine's pay-off shaft, arranged in a circle and twisted into one strand in a concentric twisting manner. However, this traditional cable twisting method has some inherent problems. For example, the multi-core collection of the cable makes the position of each core wire in each cross-section vary, making it difficult to achieve automated operation in subsequent processes such as wire stripping and welding. To solve these problems, existing processing methods usually include semi-automatic processing or fully manual processing, but these methods cannot fully meet the requirements of modern industrial automation. In addition, there have been some attempts to achieve automated processing of multi-core cables through complex technologies such as visual recognition systems, but the implementation difficulty and cost of this method are relatively high and it has not been widely popularized.

[0004] Traditional cable assembly processing methods cause the position of the core wire in the entire cable cross-section to constantly change. This non-fixed positional relationship makes it impossible to complete operations such as wire stripping and welding with simple automated equipment, thereby limiting the efficiency and cost advantages of automated production. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to overcome the above technical problems.

[0006] The above technical purpose of the present application is achieved through the following technical solutions: a cable used for automated processing, comprising a conductor, an insulation layer, a ground wire, a tape layer, a wound shielding layer and a convex sheath; a plurality of conductors are provided, the insulation layer is wrapped around the outside of the conductor, the ground wire and the conductor are arranged in parallel, and the straight sides, arc sides and oblique sides of the combination of the conductor and the ground wire are enclosed and covered by the tape layer to form a convex structure, the wound shielding layer is wrapped outside the tape layer, and the convex sheath is wrapped outside the wound shielding layer.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the cable is provided with several conductors, the insulating layer is wrapped around the outside of the conductor, the ground wire is arranged parallel to the conductor, the tape layer encloses and covers the straight edges, curved edges and oblique edges of the combination of the conductor and the ground wire to form a convex structure, the tape layer is covered with a winding shielding layer, and the winding shielding layer is wrapped with a convex sheath, so that the cable is easy to fix the orientation during the automated processing process, the core wires are always fixed in position, and misalignment will not occur, thereby significantly reducing the operational difficulty of automated processing, improving production efficiency and reducing production costs.

[0008] Preferably, the conductor is made of a plurality of bare copper strands with a wire diameter of 0.1 mm to 0.15 mm.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the conductor has higher conductivity and flexibility. At the same time, the conductor made of multiple bare copper strands with a wire diameter of 0.1mm-0.15mm ensures its stability and reliability during the automated processing.

[0010] Preferably, the insulating layer is made of PE material.

[0011] By adopting this technical solution, the cable's insulation layer not only has excellent insulation properties but also maintains a certain degree of flexibility, ensuring that the cable is not easily damaged during use, thereby improving the cable's service life and safety. The stable performance of the insulation layer also provides a foundation for automated cable processing, facilitating identification and handling, further improving the efficiency and stability of automated processing.

[0012] Preferably, the ground wire is made of a plurality of bare copper strands with a wire diameter of 0.1 mm to 0.15 mm.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the ground wire has good mechanical strength and conductive properties, which can further improve the stability and reliability of the cable. It is not easy to break during the automated processing process, ensuring the overall quality and durability of the cable.

[0014] Preferably, the wrapping layer is a hot-melt PET tape.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, hot-melt PET tape is used as the wrapping layer, and the conductor, insulation layer and ground wire are arranged in parallel. The hot-melt PET tape is used to stick the assembled cables together, so that the semi-finished product has a convex shape, ensuring that when there are two conductors, the positions of the two conductors are always located on opposite sides, avoiding the twisting of the conductor core wire, facilitating the automatic equipment to identify and fix the cable position, and simplifying the automatic processing operation.

[0016] Preferably, the winding shielding layer is formed by winding a plurality of copper wires.

[0017] By adopting this technical solution, the core wires of the cable can be kept in a fixed position during automated processing, simplifying the identification and processing operations of the automated equipment, improving processing efficiency and product quality. Specifically, the use of a twisted shield layer composed of several copper wires can effectively prevent the semi-finished product inside the cable from twisting, further ensuring the stability of the core wire position and reducing the difficulty and cost of automated processing.

[0018] Preferably, the convex sheath is made of PVC thermoplastic material.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer sheath of the cable has high flexibility, and the cable is not easily damaged when subjected to external force. At the same time, the convex sheath makes it easier for automated equipment to identify the position of the cable, ensuring that the internal position of the core wire is fixed, simplifying the automated wire stripping and welding processing operations, reducing the cost of automated processing equipment, improving production efficiency and output, and reducing labor costs.

[0020] Preferably, the hardness of the convex sheath ranges from 55A to 65A.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the convex sheath of the cable has a lower hardness, which further improves the flexibility of the cable, facilitates bending and fixing during automated processing, reduces the complexity and cost of automated equipment, and ensures the stability and consistency of the cable during processing.

[0022] In summary, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. By improving the traditional processing method and structure, the cable assembly processing method of tape wrapping and paralleling is adopted, so that the overall shape of the cable is changed to a convex structure, which can be easily fixed in position during the automated processing, greatly reducing the difficulty of automated processing;

[0024] 2. The core wires inside the cable are kept in a fixed position by a specific structure, reducing the possibility of misalignment and enabling automated processing, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing production costs;

[0025] 3. The convex sheath is made of PVC thermoplastic material with a hardness between 55A and 65A, making the cable overall soft, convenient for automated equipment to identify and operate, and further improving the degree of realization of automated processing.

[0029] The present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 1 A cable for automated processing includes a conductor 1, an insulating layer 2, a ground wire 3, a tape layer 4, a spiral shielding layer 5, and a convex sheath 6. The conductors 1 are provided in plurality, the insulating layer 2 being wrapped around the outside of the conductor 1, the ground wire 3 being arranged parallel to the conductor 1, the tape layer 4 enclosing and covering the straight, curved, and oblique edges of the combination of the conductor 1 and the ground wire 3, thereby forming a convex structure, the spiral shielding layer 5 being wrapped around the outside of the tape layer 4, and the convex sheath 6 being wrapped around the outside of the spiral shielding layer 5, thereby simplifying automated processing and improving production efficiency.

[0031] Specifically, there are two conductors 1, which are thin wires made of multiple bare copper strands. Preferably, the conductor 1 is made of 7 bare copper strands with a diameter of 0.127 mm, forming a stable structure that effectively ensures the tightness and conductivity between the wires.

[0032] Insulation layer 2 wraps around conductor 1 and provides electrical isolation. It's made of polyethylene (PE) material. PE has excellent dielectric properties and high-temperature resistance, making it suitable for cable insulation. PVF (polyvinylidene fluoride) is also a common alternative. Insulation layer 2 is approximately 0.5 mm thick, ensuring the cable's insulation performance.

[0033] Ground wire 3 is placed parallel to conductor 1 and is made of 0.127mm diameter bare copper wire. Similar to conductor 1, it can also be made of 0.12mm diameter bare copper wire. This arrangement makes the entire cable structure more compact and stable while ensuring the quality of signal transmission.

[0034] The wrapping layer 4 is coated with hot-melt PET tape. Specifically, the wrapping layer 4 is 0.05 mm thick. This wrapping layer 4 not only forms the convex structure but also secures the relative positions of the conductor 1 and the ground wire 3. Hot-melt PET tape offers superior adhesion and high-temperature resistance compared to conventional PET tape. Alternatively, other types of hot-melt tapes can be used for the wrapping layer 4, as long as they ensure structural reliability and securement.

[0035] The wound shielding layer 5 is formed by winding a number of copper wires to form an effective shielding effect. For example, the wound shielding layer 5 is made of copper wires with a diameter of 0.05 mm, which are processed by actively winding the copper wire and passively unwinding the semi-finished product. This setting method not only effectively prevents electromagnetic interference, but also ensures the stability of the wound layer. In addition, copper wires with a diameter of 0.04 mm or 0.06 mm can also be used to form different shielding effects. This winding method makes the internal structure of the cable more stable and avoids twisting during transportation and use.

[0036] The convex sheath 6 provides protection for the entire cable and facilitates identification by automated equipment. It is made of PVC thermoplastic material with a hardness of 60A. PVC offers excellent flexibility and abrasion resistance, making it suitable for cable outer sheaths. Alternatively, EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) can be used as the convex sheath 6 to achieve the same protective effect. The convex sheath 6 has a thickness of approximately 1mm-1.5mm. Using a specific convex mold and tracked traction, the cable maintains its convex shape, preventing twisting of the internal core wires and facilitating automated identification and processing.

[0037] The coordinated relationship between these primary features and the specific secondary features significantly simplifies automated processing and improves production efficiency. Specifically, by using hot-melt PET tape and a specific winding method, the convex structure forms a stable internal fixed structure, facilitating identification and processing by automated equipment. This structure stabilizes the core wire position within the cable, significantly reducing the complexity of automated operations such as stripping and welding. Furthermore, the use of a flexible convex sheath 6 also ensures cable stability during bending and installation.

[0038] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
