Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of overhead line hardware, and in particular to a hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor and an overhead line. Background Art

[0002] Overhead lines primarily refer to overhead lines, erected above ground using towers. Split conductors are a method of laying out transmission lines to suppress corona discharge and reduce line reactance. Optical cables are communications lines composed of a number of optical fibers arranged in a specific pattern, covered with a sheath, to transmit optical signals. During optical cable installation, reserved cables are used for connecting cables.

[0003] Conventional spacers are hardware fixtures installed on split conductors to maintain spacing between them, preventing whiplash and suppressing breeze vibration and sub-span oscillation. However, these are not compatible with optical cable installation. Therefore, when installing both split conductors and optical cables on overhead lines, additional hardware kits are required to maintain spacing between the cables or accommodate any remaining optical cables. This increases installation complexity and time.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to study and improve the existing spacer fitting structure and provide a fitting kit and overhead line for installing optical cables in split conductors, in order to achieve a more practical purpose. Summary of the Invention

[0034] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0035] In response to the shortcomings or one of the shortcomings raised in the background technology, an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit and an overhead line for installing optical cables in split conductors, which can meet the requirements of installing split conductors and optical cables together on a set of hardware, reducing the construction difficulty and construction time of conventionally installing two lines together.

[0036] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a first aspect of an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor, comprising:

[0037] Spacer frame 1;

[0038] The spacer bar connecting clamp comprises a wire clamp 2 and an optical cable clamp 3 connected to the spacer bar frame 1.

[0039] A spacer rod connecting wire clamp is installed on the spacer rod frame 1 of the hardware kit of the embodiment of the present application. The spacer rod connecting wire clamp includes a wire clamp 2 and an optical cable clamp 3. The wire clamp 2 is used to fix the split wires, and the optical cable clamp 3 is used to fix the optical cable, so that the spacer rod hardware can be compatible with the installation of split wires and optical cables, and can fix the spacing between each split wire while also fixing the spacing between the optical cable and each split wire.

[0040] For example, the spacer bar frame 1 of this embodiment is composed of two symmetrically arranged quadrilateral half frames, and four wire clamps 2 are connected between the two half frames by fasteners. The four wire clamps 2 are distributed at the four corners of the spacer bar frame 1 and extend outward at one end. A wire through-hole for the wire to pass through is provided at one end of the wire clamp 2 away from the spacer bar frame 1.

[0041] The embodiment of the present application improves the construction compatibility of the spacer fitting by adding an optical cable clamp 3 to the spacer fitting. This not only meets the construction requirements for installing optical cables in split conductors, but also does not affect the normal use of the optical cable line and the conductor line. It enables the installation of the split conductor and the optical cable together on a set of fittings, reducing the construction difficulty and construction time of the conventional installation of two lines together.

[0042] In some optional embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor, wherein the optical cable clamp 3 of the hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor is arranged at the center of the spacer rod frame 1, and the wire passing direction of the optical cable clamp 3 is parallel to the wire passing direction of the conductor clamp 2.

[0043] The optical cable clamp 3 of the embodiment of the present application is fixedly installed in the center of the spacer rod frame 1, and the wire passing direction of the optical cable clamp 3 is parallel to the wire passing direction of the wire clamp 2, so that the direction of the optical cable and the direction of each split wire are parallel after construction. The optical cable is located in the space surrounded by the split wires, with high space utilization, which facilitates the installation of the split wires and the optical cable at the same time, thereby improving construction efficiency.

[0044] In some optional embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor. The hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor has multiple wire clamps 2 that are arranged around an optical cable clamp 3, and a wire through-hole is provided at one end of the wire clamp 2 away from the optical cable clamp 3.

[0045] The number of wire clamps 2 in the embodiment of the present application is four and they are evenly distributed along the circumference of the spacer rod frame 1 to surround the optical cable clamp 3. The four wire clamps 2 correspond to fixing four split wires. The wire through-holes on the wire clamps 2 are arranged at the end away from the optical cable clamp 3, so that the spacing between the optical cable and each split wire can be basically consistent after construction, meeting the construction requirements.

[0046] In some optional embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor, wherein a fixing column 4 is detachably mounted on a spacer rod frame 1 of the hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor, and an optical cable clamp 3 is fixedly connected to the fixing column 4.

[0047] The fixing column 4 and the optical cable clamp 3 of the embodiment of the present application are welded into a whole in advance, and the fixing column 4 and the spacer bar frame 1 are detachably connected by bolts. By installing the fixing column 4, the optical cable clamp 3 can be quickly installed on the spacer bar frame 1, which is convenient for adding and improving the existing spacer bar hardware.

[0048] In some optional embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor. The optical cable clamp 3 of the hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor includes a wire clamp seat 31 fixedly connected to a fixing column 4, and a wire clamp cover 32 detachably connected to the wire clamp seat 31.

[0049] The optical cable clamp 3 of the embodiment of the present application includes a clamp seat 31 and a clamp cover 32. The clamp seat 31 is welded to the fixing column 4. The clamp seat 31 and the clamp cover 32 have grooves on opposite sides for clamping the optical cable. The clamp seat 31 and the clamp cover 32 are detachably connected by bolts.

[0050] See also Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the second aspect of the embodiment of the present application provides another hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor, comprising:

[0051] The spacer comprises a spacer frame 1 and a wire clamp 2 connected to the spacer frame 1;

[0052] The optical cable hub is connected to the spacer frame 1 and is used to coil the optical cables.

[0053] The spacer rod frame 1 of the hardware kit of the embodiment of the present application is installed with a wire clamp 2 and an optical cable hub. The wire clamp 2 is used to fix the split wires, and the optical cable hub is used to coil the optical cable, so that the spacer rod hardware can be compatible with the installation of split wires and optical cables, and can fix the spacing between the split wires while also coiling and storing the reserved optical cables.

[0054] By adding a cable hub to the spacer fittings, the present embodiment improves the construction compatibility of the spacer fittings. This not only meets the construction requirements for installing optical cables in split conductors, but also does not affect the normal use of the optical cable lines and conductor lines. This allows the split conductors and optical cables to be installed together on a set of fittings, reducing the construction difficulty and time required for conventional installation of both lines.

[0055] It should be noted that in some optional embodiments, both a cable hub and a cable clamp 3 can be mounted on the spacer frame 1, allowing the spacer fitting to both coil and secure the optical cable. During construction, the selective use of either the cable hub or the cable clamp 3, depending on installation requirements, can further enhance the compatibility of the spacer fitting and ensure construction efficiency.

[0056] In the second aspect, in some optional embodiments: see Figures 3 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit for installing optical cables in split conductors, and the optical cable hub of the hardware kit for installing optical cables in split conductors includes a plurality of support arms 5 uniformly distributed along the circumference of a spacer rod frame 1, and the plurality of support arms 5 are each provided with a U-shaped groove 6 for winding the optical cable.

[0057] The optical cable hub of the embodiment of the present application includes a plurality of support arms 5, which are evenly distributed circumferentially and fixed on the spacer rod frame 1 by fasteners. A U-shaped groove 6 is provided at one end of the support arm 5 away from the spacer rod frame 1. The U-shaped grooves 6 on the plurality of support arms 5 cooperate with each other to accommodate the optical cables.

[0058] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the opening directions of the U-shaped grooves 6 on the multiple support arms 5 are all away from the center of the spacer frame 1. During use, it is convenient to wind the optical cable into the multiple U-shaped grooves 6 in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction. In other embodiments, the opening directions of the U-shaped grooves 6 on the multiple support arms 5 are all toward the center of the spacer frame 1. During use, the optical cable can be pre-wound and then clamped into the surrounding U-shaped grooves 6.

[0059] In the second aspect, in some optional embodiments: see Figures 3 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor, wherein the support arm 5 of the hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor includes a connecting plate 51 connected to the spacer rod frame 1, and a limiting plate 52 connected to the connecting plate 51 to form a U-shaped groove 6.

[0060] The support arm 5 of the present embodiment includes a connecting plate 51 and a limiting plate 52. The connecting plate 51 is fixed to the spacer frame 1 via fasteners. The limiting plate 52 is welded to one side of the connecting plate 51 and forms a U-shaped groove 6 with the connecting plate 51 for winding the optical cable. The support arm 5 has the advantage of being simple in structure and can be easily installed on existing spacer hardware.

[0061] It should be noted that the distance from the U-shaped groove 6 to the center of the spacer rod frame 1 in this embodiment is smaller than the distance from the wire through-hole on the wire clamp 2 to the center of the spacer rod frame 1, so that when the U-shaped groove 6 is used to coil the optical cable, it will not interfere with the split wires fixed on the wire clamp 2. At the same time, the coiled optical cable is located in the space surrounded by the split wires, effectively utilizing the installation space.

[0062] In other embodiments, the wire clamp 2 can share the connecting plate 51 with the support arm 5, and the wire through-hole on the wire clamp 2 can be directly set at the end of the connecting plate 51 away from the spacer rod frame 1. The connecting plate 51 and the wire through-hole are staggered in the length direction of the connecting plate 51, so that the winding of the optical cable and the installation of the wires do not interfere with each other.

[0063] In the second aspect, in some optional embodiments: see Figures 3 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor, and a limit member 7 located at the open end of a U-shaped groove 6 is installed on the support arm 5 of the hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor, and the limit member 7 is used to prevent the optical cable from escaping from the U-shaped groove 6.

[0064] The support arm 5 of the embodiment of the present application is equipped with a stopper 7 located at the open end of the U-shaped groove 6. The stopper 7 can seal the opening of the U-shaped groove 6, preventing the optical cable from escaping the U-shaped groove 6, thereby effectively storing the optical cable. For example, the stopper 7 can be a fastening bolt, a pin, or a block.

[0065] In the second aspect, in some optional embodiments: see Figures 3 to 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor, wherein the support arm 5 of the hardware kit for installing an optical cable in a split conductor is a telescopic arm, which is used to adjust the distance between the U-shaped groove 6 and the spacer rod frame 1.

[0066] The support arm 5 of the embodiment of the present application is a telescopic arm, which can change its length by telescoping to adjust the distance between the U-shaped groove 6 and the spacer rod frame 1, thereby changing the winding radius of the optical cable and adjusting the storage length of the optical cable.

[0067] Illustratively, in this embodiment, the telescopic arm includes a fixed plate and a movable plate. The fixed plate is provided with a slide groove for sliding the movable plate. The fixed plate is fixedly installed with the spacer bar frame 1. The U-shaped groove 6 is provided at one end of the movable plate away from the fixed plate.

[0068] The movable plate can slide along the sliding groove in the fixed plate to adjust the distance between the U-shaped groove 6 and the spacer bar frame 1. In order to facilitate the fixing of the position of the U-shaped groove 6, a locking screw is threadedly connected on the fixed plate, and a plurality of slots are provided on the movable plate. The locking screws adapt to the slots in different positions to fix the movable plate in different extended positions.
