[0022] Referring to Figure 1 The utility model provides a kind of explosion-proof high-flame-retardant special cable, including cable core and the outer sheath of wrapping in the outer surface of cable core, cable core includes 5 wire cores, it is 4+1 core structure, 4 cores are main wire core, 1 core is ground wire;Explosion-proof filler 4 is provided at the gap between wire core and wire core in cable core;Outer sheath is multilayer structure, including two explosion-proof sheaths, respectively, inner sheath 8 and outer sheath 10, inner sheath 8 and outer sheath 10 are intrinsically safe low-smoke halogen-free polyolefin sheath.
[0023] Specifically, 4+1 core structure 4 core is fan-shaped structure, and 1 core in it is circular structure.Specifically, 4+1 core structure 4 core is composed of 3 phase wires + 1 zero wire.
[0024] Specifically, wire core is 3-layer structure, including conductor 1 located in the center of wire core, fireproof layer 2 wrapped outside conductor 1, and insulation layer 3 wrapped outside fireproof layer 2.Specifically, conductor 1 is the 2nd annealed tight copper conductor, which is tightly pressed by twisting multiple copper wires;Fireproof layer 2 is synthetic mica tape;Insulation layer 3 is crosslinked polyethylene layer.
[0025] Conductor 1 adopts the 2nd annealed tight copper conductor, which is tightly pressed by twisting multiple copper wires, and the tight copper conductor has excellent electrical conductivity, mechanical strength and production efficiency, which not only improves the efficiency and safety of power transmission, but also reduces the long-term operation cost.
[0026] The fireproof layer 2 is wrapped by a synthetic mica tape, and the melting point of the mica is extremely high (the synthetic mica can reach above 1000℃), which will not melt or decompose in a fire, can maintain the insulation performance, and prevent the short circuit of the electric current.
[0027] The insulation material of the insulation layer 3 is cross-linked polyethylene, which can provide good insulation performance, has good elasticity and flexibility, and is used as the insulation layer 3 in the explosion-proof electrical equipment, and can reduce the risk of short circuit or overheating due to the high temperature resistance, low conductivity and stability, and meet the intrinsic safety requirements.
[0028] Specifically, the explosion-proof filler 4 is a glass fiber filler.
[0029] In the explosion-proof cable, the filler ensures the stability of the cable structure and improves the explosion-proof performance. The core function is to prevent internal sparks or arcs from causing explosions by filling the gaps between the conductors 1, and to enhance mechanical protection and environmental adaptability. In the gap filling of the multi-core cable, the glass fiber rope prevents the formation of combustible gas diffusion channels inside the cable, absorbs the heat generated by the fault arc, and reduces the local temperature peak.
[0030] Preferably, the explosion-proof filler 4 can be a glass fiber rope + ceramicized silicone rubber (or intumescent flame retardant), which realizes the triple effect of “physical isolation + active heat absorption + carbonization sealing”. The glass fiber provides mechanical support, and the ceramicized material expands to fill the gap when it encounters fire, which together blocks gas diffusion and heat transfer.
[0031] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the outer protective layer structure is provided with 6 layers, which are the wrapping tape 5, the waterproof layer 6, the waterproof tape 7, the inner sheath 8, the armor 9 and the outer sheath 10 from inside to outside. Specifically, the wrapping tape 5 is a layer of ceramicized silicone rubber tape; the waterproof layer 6 is a PE sheath. Specifically, the armor 9 is two layers of galvanized steel tape.
[0032] The wrapping tape 5 is a ceramicized silicone rubber tape, which is wrapped with a layer of ceramicized silicone rubber tape during cabling. The ceramicized silicone rubber tape melts and combines with the decomposition products of the silicone rubber in a 500℃-1000℃ flame, forming a porous ceramic layer that isolates oxygen and heat.
[0033] The waterproof layer 6 and the waterproof tape 7 form a double-layer waterproof structure to achieve the waterproof function.
[0034] The waterproof layer 6 is extruded by PE sheath material, and the main function of the waterproof layer 6 is to protect the insulation layer 3 of the cable from damage, and also has the waterproof function, which can prevent the insulation layer 3 from being affected by water, mechanical damage, light and chemical corrosive medium.

[0035] The cable waterproof layer 6 is wrapped with a waterproof tape 7, and the main function is to prevent water from entering and protect the internal structure of the cable from water damage. It ensures that the cable can operate stably in a humid, underwater or high-pressure water environment for a long time.
[0036] The inner sheath 8 is made of intrinsically safe low-smoke halogen-free polyolefin material, which can prevent the electric spark or high temperature generated by internal short circuit or overload from directly contacting the external explosive gas (such as methane and hydrogen), limit the spread of electric arc in the cable, and avoid triggering a chain explosion. The inner sheath 8 absorbs mechanical stress, protects the internal conductor 1 and the insulation layer 3 from damage, reduces the friction between the internal structure and the outer sheath, and prevents the insulation layer 3 from being aged or broken due to long-term friction.
[0037] Then the inner sheath 8 is wrapped with two layers of galvanized steel belts with gaps, which is mainly used to enhance the mechanical strength and protection ability of the cable. The steel belt armor cooperates with the inner sheath 8, the explosion-proof filler 4 and other components to form a physical isolation layer, which prevents the internal spark or high temperature caused by short circuit or overload from directly contacting the external explosive gas.
[0038] The outer sheath 10 is made of intrinsically safe low-smoke halogen-free polyolefin material, which can suppress flame spread, reduce combustion toxicity, and prevent external high temperature, spark or explosion impact from directly damaging the internal structure of the cable.
[0039] Specifically, the cable core and the cross-sectional shape of the cable are circular.
[0040] The utility model discloses a flame-retardant system + sealing structure + arc suppression for explosion-proof, and the specific implementation is as follows:
[0041] Flame-retardant system, suppress flame: the outer sheath 10 is made of intrinsically safe low-smoke halogen-free polyolefin material, which can suppress flame spread. The insulation layer 3 uses crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE), which is resistant to high temperature and has low conductivity, reducing the risk of short circuit. The wrapping tape 5 is a ceramicized silicone rubber tape that isolates oxygen and heat.
[0042] Sealing structure, avoid gas penetration through gap: the armor 9 is two layers of galvanized steel belts that form a physical isolation layer to prevent internal spark from escaping. The waterproof layer 6 uses PE sheath to block external moisture and chemical corrosion.
[0043] Arc suppression: the armor 9 isolates the internal arc from the external environment. The crosslinked polyethylene insulation layer reduces the risk of short circuit.
[0044] The utility model discloses a kind of explosion-proof high flame-retardant special cables, it is applicable to mine, petroleum chemical industry, ship wharf and other flammable and explosive places, it is the cable product specially designed for high-risk explosive environment, and it is far more than existing explosion-proof cable in flame-retardant performance, mechanical strength and explosion-proof ability.The core target is to prevent cable failure from causing explosion, and maintain system safe operation under extreme conditions (such as high temperature, electric arc, combustible gas environment).The main difference from existing explosion-proof cable is its explosion-proof performance and safety design, and it has better explosion-proof, flame-retardant, high-temperature resistant, corrosion-resistant and other performances than existing explosion-proof cable.
