Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a low-temperature cable sag testing device, belonging to the technical field of wire and cable testing equipment. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of technology and the increase in electricity demand, the application of cryogenic cables has gradually gained attention. Especially in extremely cold northern regions, the sag performance of cables in low-temperature environments directly affects their service life and the reliability of power transmission. However, the market currently lacks effective tools and equipment to accurately measure the sag performance of cryogenic cables, forcing manufacturers to rely on simple manual testing methods. This method not only has significant errors but also fails to provide accurate parameter indicators, posing a considerable challenge to cable research and development and production.
[0003] In low-temperature environments, the physical properties of cables change significantly. Materials that should be flexible may become rigid and brittle, preventing the cable from bending properly and thus affecting its performance in practical applications. Therefore, developing cable products that can withstand extreme cold is particularly important. For this reason, manufacturers urgently need specialized testing equipment to systematically evaluate the low-temperature performance of cables. Utility Model Content

However, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit its scope.
[0018] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention.
[0019] like Figures 1-4 As shown, a low-temperature cable sag testing device includes a low-temperature chamber 8; a low-temperature sag testing device is installed inside the low-temperature chamber 8; the low-temperature sag testing device includes a base plate; a cable fixing support frame 1 is installed on the base plate; a sample cable 3 is placed on the cable fixing support frame 1; a pallet lifting mechanism 7 is installed between the cable fixing supports 1; the pallet lifting mechanism 7 includes a lifting motor 71 and a cable lifting pallet 2; vertical lifting mechanisms 6 are installed on the left and right sides of the sample cable 3; a laser displacement sensor 4 and a pressure sensor 5 are installed on the vertical lifting mechanism 6; the laser displacement sensor 4 is used to measure the specific displacement value of the sample cable 3 when it sags; the pressure sensor 5 is used to control the pressure applied to the sample cable 3 by the vertical lifting mechanisms 6 on both sides, so as to measure the displacement value of the sample cable 3 under a fixed pressure.
[0020] In a preferred embodiment, the cable fixing support frame 1 includes a supporting base plate 11; a vertically arranged upright plate 12 is connected to the supporting base plate 11; the supporting base plate 11 is fixed to the base plate by bolts; a triangular reinforcing rib plate 13 is connected between the upright plate 12 and the supporting base plate 11; a cable fixing plate 14 is connected to the upper end of the upright plate 12; an arc-shaped slot 141 is provided on the cable fixing plate 14 for placing the sample cable 3; the cable fixing plate 14 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the upright plate 12 by bolts.
[0021] In this preferred embodiment, the vertical lifting mechanism 6 includes a side plate bracket 61; upper and lower baffles 62 are arranged on the side of the side plate bracket 61 near the sample cable 3; a guide post and a threaded rod 63 are arranged between the upper and lower baffles 62; a slider 64 is arranged on the guide post and the threaded rod 63; an L-shaped plate 65 is connected to one side of the slider 64; a pressure sensor 5 is arranged on the L-shaped plate 65; a pressure rod 66 is also arranged on one side of the slider 64; a pressure sensor 5 is connected to one side of the pressure rod 66; the pressure rod 66 is located below the pressure sensor 5.
[0022] This device is mainly composed of: two sets of vertical lifting mechanisms 6, one set of cable tray lifting mechanism 7, and cable fixing brackets at both ends 1.
[0023] The specific experimental procedure is as follows:
[0024] First, raise the pallet lifting mechanism 7 on the device to its highest position, at which point the height of the cable lifting pallet 2 is consistent with the bottom of the cable fixing brackets 1 on both sides. Then, place the sample cable 3 into the arc-shaped slot 141 of the cable fixing plate 14, at which point the cable is in a horizontal state. Subsequently, turn on the low-temperature chamber 8, set it to the required ambient temperature, and maintain it for a period of time. The displacement coordinate value of the highest point on the upper surface of the cable can be detected in real time by the laser displacement sensor 4. Then, lower the cable lifting pallet 2 to its lowest height. At this time, due to the self-weight of the sample cable 3, the two laser displacement sensors 4 can measure the specific displacement value of the two sample cables 3. The larger the sag value, the more flexible the cable is at low temperature. When the cable temperature is too low, the cable cannot sag naturally. At this time, the two sets of vertical lifting mechanisms 6 are activated. The pressure sensor 5 can control the pressure applied to the cable by the vertical lifting mechanisms 6 on both sides to measure the displacement value of the sample cable 3 under fixed pressure. The measurement result H value can then be displayed in real time on the screen.
[0025] This device boasts advantages such as simple structure and low cost, and can obtain accurate measurement results, providing precise testing results for the production process. It avoids a large number of defective products caused by inaccurate measurements, significantly saving production costs.
[0026] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
