[0016] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0017] See also Figure 1The utility model provides a technical solution: a high-performance anti-torsion robot special cable, comprising a wire core 9, a PVC tape 5, a shielding layer 6, an outer sheath layer 7 and a second filling layer 8; the inner ring of the outer sheath layer 7 is provided with a shielding layer 6, and a plurality of wire cores 9 and a PVC tape 5 are provided inside the shielding layer 6; a plurality of wire cores 9 are provided on the periphery of the PVC tape 5, and a filling layer 2 8 is filled between the wire core 9 and the shielding layer 6; the wire core 9 comprises a conductor 1, an insulating layer 2, a filling layer 3 and an inner sheath layer 4; a plurality of conductors 1 are provided in the gap within the inner sheath layer 4, an insulating layer 2 is provided on the outer sleeve of the conductor 1, and a filling layer 3 is filled between the insulating layer 2 and the inner sheath layer 4; a plurality of inner cores 10 are provided on the periphery of the PVC tape 5, and the inner core 10 is twisted into a predetermined pitch structure by copper wire, and an insulating layer 2 is provided outside the pitch structure
[0018] The conductor 1 is made of copper wire, and high-strength Kevlar wire is added in the middle of the ultra-fine oxygen-free copper wire to be fine-twisted in strands, and then multiple strands are twisted together, which can improve the bending performance of the conductor and increase the tensile strength.
[0019] The copper wire of the conductor 1 is a tinned copper wire, which has low resistance, is resistant to oxidation and aging, and has fast and stable transmission, thereby preventing electromagnetic noise interference on the electrical circuit and protecting its own signal from interference.
[0020] The inner circle of the inner sheath layer 4 surrounds the metal layer and the insulating layer, and the metal layer can be located radially outside the inner circle of the inner sheath layer 4. The metal layer can be an aluminum foil layer applied to the insulating layer, for example, by electroplating, lamination, adhesion or other processes.
[0021] The wire cores 9 are first twisted in groups, that is, multiple conductors 1 are twisted together, and then filled with a filling layer 3, and the conductors 1 are wrapped with non-woven fabric; the twisted wire cores 9 are twisted a second time to form a total cable, and the gaps and middles are filled with a filling layer 2 8 and a PVC strip 5, which can make the cable more rounded, the finished product more beautiful, and the toughness and tensile strength better.
[0022] The cable is made of multiple strands twisted together, so that the cores 9 are more closely connected together. For robot cables that need to be repeatedly twisted, the usage rate will be greater; the gaps in the cable of the utility model are filled with cotton thread to increase the tensile load-bearing capacity, making it more flexible and the cable maintains high tensile resistance at the same time; a layer of non-woven fabric is also wrapped between the core 9 and the overall shielding layer to buffer the impact caused by the movement of the core 9.
[0023] The insulating layer 2 is made of TPEE material, and TPEE has the characteristics of high strength, high elasticity, oil resistance, acid and alkali resistance, high temperature resistance, radiation resistance, and excellent dynamic mechanical properties. It is a material with good wear resistance, excellent fatigue resistance and low hysteresis loss, and is an ideal material for multiple cyclic load conditions.
[0024] The outer circles of the plurality of conductors 1 are wrapped with aluminum foil, the shielding layer 6 is arranged on the outside of the aluminum foil, and a tinned layer is provided on the shielding layer 6.
[0025] The outer sheath layer 7 is made of a high-molecular-weight, environmentally friendly nitrile material. Compared with ordinary PVC material, the environmentally friendly nitrile material has better flexibility and is less likely to break. In addition, its oil resistance, corrosion resistance and cold resistance are better than ordinary PVC, making it more adaptable to the robot working under harsh conditions.
[0026] The operating temperature range of the utility model is -50°C to +180°C, and the hardness range is 30-75D, so it can adapt to more environments with high temperature requirements.
[0027] An inner binding belt 11 is provided outside the inner cores 10 , and the inner binding belt 11 surrounds and combines the inner cores 10 and the PVC strips 5 and plays a role in maintaining the round shape.
[0028] In the case of a conventional cable, when bending or twisting is applied to the cable, friction occurs between the insulation of the core wires instead of sliding, and at this time, the stress applied to the core wires is relatively large, resulting in damage or disconnection of the conductors.
[0029] In the case of conventional cables, non-woven fabric or sintered fluoropolymer is used as the inner tape 11. However, in the case of sintered fluoropolymer, the strength and friction coefficient are relatively high, so when torsion acts on the cable, the stress cannot be absorbed and the stress is transferred to the inner core 10. In addition, if torsion acts on the cable, the inner core 10 may be damaged due to friction between the inner tape 11 and the inner core 10.
[0030] Therefore, in the present invention, the inner binding belt 11 has a relatively small friction coefficient and can be composed of an unsintered fluoropolymer with strong lubricity, which enables the cable to slide smoothly when twisted, minimizing friction damage, which can greatly improve the durability of the cable.
[0031] The cable of the present invention is used in a robot, the inner core 10 can be configured to be used for communication to exchange information with the outside world, and the wire core 9 can be configured to be used for power supply.
[0032] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
