Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wire rope technology, and in particular to an automotive wire rope with anti-corrosion function. Background Technology

[0002] Automotive steel cables are used to tow and rescue vehicles when they break down. When using an automotive steel cable, the loop at the end of the cable is typically placed inside a hook, and the cable is pulled to rescue the vehicle.

[0003] Corrosion of wire ropes affects their strength, hindering their use in rescue operations. To combat corrosion, rubber sleeves are typically fitted around the wire rope to protect it from rain and other contaminants, thus improving its corrosion resistance. However, over time, the outer wall of the rubber sleeve may become damaged due to aging or scratches, rendering it ineffective in protecting the wire rope from corrosion. Replacing the rubber sleeve requires disassembling the end of the wire rope with a loop to remove it. If the wire rope clamp is not securely installed after disassembly, the loop may loosen, affecting subsequent use. Utility Model Content

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Example 1: This utility model provides the following... Figure 1-5 The illustrated automotive steel wire rope with corrosion resistance includes:

[0028] 1. Strip steel wire rope;

[0029] Rubber protective cover 4 is installed on the outside of the strip steel wire rope 1 and is used to prevent corrosion of the strip steel wire rope 1.

[0030] Cover plate 5 is installed on the outer wall of rubber protective cover 4 and is used to cover the gaps in rubber protective cover 4.

[0031] Connector 6 is disposed on the outer wall of the rubber protective cover 4 and is used to connect the rubber protective cover 4 and the cover plate 5.

[0032] A ring-shaped wire rope 2 is fixedly connected to the end of the strip wire rope 1, and a wire rope clamp 3 is sleeved on the end of the strip wire rope 1 for fixing the strip wire rope 1 and the ring-shaped wire rope 2.

[0033] Furthermore, the strip steel wire rope 1 is an existing metal steel wire rope. By bending the end of the strip steel wire rope 1 to form a loop, and by using the steel wire rope clamp 3 to fix the end of the strip steel wire rope 1 to the strip steel wire rope 1, a ring steel wire rope 2 is formed. By inserting the ring steel wire rope 2 into the hook rope, it is used as a towing steel wire rope for car rescue. The above are common methods in the existing technical field.

[0034] The two ends of the rubber protective cover 4 are set opposite each other.

[0035] One side of the bottom end of the cover plate 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one end of the rubber protective cover 4, and a snap-fit ​​groove 8 is provided at the top of the cover plate 5.

[0036] Connector 6 includes:

[0037] Locking block 61 is inserted into the snap-fit ​​groove 8;

[0038] Mounting bracket 62, one end of which is fixedly connected to the top of locking block 61.

[0039] The vertical cross-section of the locking block 61 is a right triangle, and the vertical cross-section of the mounting bracket 62 is a figure-7.

[0040] Furthermore, the rubber protective cover 4 is made of corrosion-resistant silicone rubber. As a high-performance elastomer material, silicone rubber has many unique advantages, which makes it widely used. The main advantages of silicone rubber are as follows: 1. Excellent temperature resistance: Silicone rubber can maintain its elasticity and physical properties over a very wide temperature range. It can be used at temperatures as low as -50℃ (-58°F) and as high as 250℃ (482°F) or even higher. Its short-term heat resistance can even reach above 300℃ (572°F); 2. Good weather resistance and aging resistance: Silicone rubber has excellent resistance to ultraviolet rays, ozone and atmospheric aging, and can be used outdoors for a long time without aging or deterioration. 3. Chemical stability: Silicone rubber exhibits excellent resistance to many chemicals and can withstand the erosion of various chemical media such as acids, alkalis, solvents, and oils. 4. Electrical insulation: Silicone rubber possesses excellent electrical insulation properties, maintaining good insulation even under high temperature and high humidity conditions. 5. Softness and elasticity: Silicone rubber has good softness and elasticity, maintaining its shape and function over a wide range of stresses. 6. Anti-slip properties: Silicone rubber surfaces typically possess a certain degree of anti-slip performance. 7. Flame retardancy: Some types of silicone rubber are self-extinguishing or flame retardant, reducing the risk of combustion in a fire. 8. Ease of processing: Silicone rubber is easy to mold, extrude, and inject. Plasticizing and printing can produce products of various shapes and sizes, and the processing does not easily generate harmful gases; 9. Environmental protection: Silicone rubber material itself is non-toxic and odorless, and has little impact on the environment during production and use, meeting environmental protection requirements. The rubber protective cover 4 is plate-shaped. By folding the two ends of the rubber protective cover 4 in a ring shape to form a cylinder, it wraps around the outer wall of the strip steel wire rope 1, protecting the strip steel wire rope 1 and thus improving the overall corrosion resistance of the automotive steel wire rope. The materials of the cover plate 5 and the connector 6 are the same as those of the rubber protective cover 4. One end of the bottom side of the cover plate 5 is bonded and fixed to the outer wall of one end of the rubber protective cover 4. The bottom end of the mounting bracket 62 is attached to the rubber protective cover 4. The outer wall of the other end of the protective cover 4 is bonded and fixed. The locking block 61 and the mounting bracket 62 are integrally formed. The inclined side of the locking block 61 faces away from the mounting bracket 62. Multiple connectors 6 are provided and arranged linearly at equal intervals. The number and position of the snap-fit ​​grooves 8 correspond to the number and position of the connectors 6. The locking block 61 is inserted into the snap-fit ​​groove 8 so that the right-angled side of the locking block 61 contacts the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 8, thereby making the locking block 61 snap-fit ​​with the cover plate 5, completing the fixed installation of the cover plate 5 and the rubber protective cover 4. This allows the cover plate 5 to block the gap between the two ends of the rubber protective cover 4, preventing external corrosive substances from entering the strip steel wire rope 1 through the gap at both ends of the rubber protective cover 4.

[0041] In Embodiment 2, the present invention provides a blocking strip 7, which is applied to the automotive wire rope in Embodiment 1. The bottom end of the blocking strip 7 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the other end of the rubber protective cover 4, and a slot for inserting the blocking strip 7 is provided on the other side of the bottom end of the cover plate 5.

[0042] Furthermore, the material of the blocking strip 7 is the same as that of the rubber protective cover 4. Multiple blocking strips 7 are provided, and the size of the blocking strip 7 corresponds to the size of the slot. The blocking strip 7 and the slot are interlocked. When external substances seep in through the gap between the rubber protective cover 4 and the cover plate 5, the multiple blocking strips 7 and the slot restrict the seepage of external substances, further reducing the possibility of external corrosive substances invading the strip steel wire rope 1 from the end gap of the rubber protective cover 4.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
