[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clear and complete, the embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only some, not all, embodiments of this utility model, and are merely used to explain the embodiments of this utility model. They are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides a technical solution: a flame-retardant power cable protection pipe, comprising a modified polypropylene pipe 1, with a chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 sleeved on the outer side of the modified polypropylene pipe 1. The modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 are of equal length. Multiple modified polypropylene support strips 12 are integrally formed on the outer wall of the modified polypropylene pipe 1. The modified polypropylene support strips 12 are arc-shaped, and their plate length is less than the pipe length of the modified polypropylene pipe 1. The outer ring surface of the modified polypropylene support strips 12 rests against the inner ring surface of the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2. Both the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 have connecting rings 3 at their ends. Bolt holes 4 are formed on the surface of the connecting rings 3. The connecting rings 3 are circular plates with a "T"-shaped cross-section. One end of the connecting ring 3 is inserted between the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2, and the outer diameter of the other end of the connecting ring 3 is larger than the outer diameter of the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2. Multiple bolt holes 4 are provided, and the multiple bolt holes 4 are distributed at equal intervals and of equal size along the outer edge of the connecting ring 3. The system employs a double-layer pipe structure consisting of modified polypropylene pipe 1 and chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2. Modified polypropylene pipe 1 is heat-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and flexible, while chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 boasts high strength, high temperature resistance, and excellent flame retardancy, with a Vicat softening point exceeding 93℃. This double-layer structure not only provides excellent flame retardancy but also enhances protection. Even if the surface of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 is damaged, modified polypropylene pipe 1 still effectively protects the internal cables. Furthermore, damaged modified polypropylene pipe 1 or chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 can be replaced individually, avoiding the high cost of replacing the entire pipeline. A connecting ring 3 is installed between modified polypropylene pipe 1 and chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2, not only connecting the two pipes but also serving as a flange for connecting adjacent sets of protective pipes. Thus, the connecting ring 3 is a dual-purpose device with multiple functions.

[0025] The table below compares the flame-retardant effect and compressive strength of single-layer flame-retardant power cable protection pipes and double-layer protection pipes (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe + modified polypropylene):

[0026]

[0027] The double-layer protective tube has superior flame retardant properties. The outer CPVC layer provides flame retardancy and self-extinguishing properties, while the inner MPP layer is non-combustible and can prevent the spread of flames. It also has higher overall light transmittance and less smoke during combustion.

[0028] The compressive strength comparison is shown in the table below:

[0029]

[0030] The compressive strength of double-layer protective pipes is significantly higher than that of single-layer protective pipes. The addition of the inner MPP layer greatly improves the overall compressive strength, making it suitable for more complex construction environments.

[0031] One end of the connecting ring 3, which extends between the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2, has a groove 8 on the inner ring surface and a groove 9 on the outer ring surface. Both groove 8 and groove 9 are circular grooves. An elastic sealing ring 10 is fixedly fitted on the outer wall of the modified polypropylene pipe 1, and an elastic sealing ring 11 is fixed on the inner wall of the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2. After one end of the connecting ring 3 is inserted between the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2, the elastic sealing ring 10 is inserted into groove 8, and the elastic sealing ring 11 is inserted into groove 9. At this time, the end of the connecting ring 3 is supported between the grooves of the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 to prevent the grooves from being damaged by pressure. The elastic sealing ring 10 is inserted into the slot 8 and the elastic sealing ring 11 is inserted into the slot 9, which improves the sealing performance after the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 are connected. Furthermore, the elastic sealing ring 11 and the elastic sealing ring 10 increase the friction between the connecting ring 3 and the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2, preventing the connecting ring 3 from being pulled out from between the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 at will.

[0032] The surface of the connecting ring 3 is provided with two sets of screws 7. The two sets of screws 7 pass through the connecting ring 3 and are screwed to the ends of the modified polypropylene tube 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride tube 2 respectively. The surface of the connecting ring 3 is provided with multiple pre-drilled holes 1 5. The pre-drilled holes 1 5 are convex-shaped round holes. The screws 7 correspond one-to-one with the pre-drilled holes 1 5. The screws 7 pass through the pre-drilled holes 1 5 and are screwed to the ends of the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride tube 2. The surface of the connecting ring 3 is provided with multiple pre-drilled holes 2 6. The pre-drilled holes 2 6 are convex-shaped round holes. The screws 7 correspond one-to-one with the pre-drilled holes 2 6. The screws 7 pass through the pre-drilled holes 2 6 and are screwed to the ends of the modified polypropylene tube 1. The connecting ring 3 is fixed to the ends of the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 using screws 7. This facilitates the individual replacement of the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 later. That is, after the connecting ring 3 is removed from the ends of the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2, the damaged modified polypropylene pipe 1 or the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 can be removed and replaced with a new one. When assembling the two sets of protective pipes end to end, the bolts are passed through the screws 7 on the surfaces of the two adjacent connecting rings 3 and then tightened.

[0033] Instructions for using flame-retardant power cable protection pipe (double-layer structure): Insert one end of the connecting ring 3 between the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2, ensuring that: the elastic sealing ring 10 is fully embedded in the groove 8, and the elastic sealing ring 11 is fully embedded in the groove 9. Confirm that the end of the connecting ring 3 is supported between the grooves of the modified polypropylene pipe 1 and the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2 to prevent the grooves from being damaged by pressure. Use a screwdriver to thread the screw 7 through the pre-drilled hole 5 and screw it onto the end of the chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2. Use a screwdriver to thread the screw 7 through the pre-drilled hole 6 and screw it onto the end of the modified polypropylene pipe 1. Ensure that the screw 7 is evenly stressed to prevent the connecting ring 3 from loosening. Align the connecting rings 3 of the two protection pipes, and tighten them by passing bolts through the bolt holes 4 on the surfaces of the two adjacent connecting rings 3. Ensure that the bolts are tight, the pipe connection is secure, and there is no loosening or leakage. Bury the assembled pipe underground, ensuring that the burial depth meets the design requirements (e.g., greater than 4m). In bridge, tunnel, and other scenarios, trenchless technology can be used to traverse obstacles. Install the pipes on the cable tray, ensuring uniform spacing for easy heat dissipation and maintenance. For repairs: Remove screws 7 and bolts from connecting ring 3. Remove the damaged modified polypropylene pipe 1 or chlorinated polyvinyl chloride pipe 2. Install new pipes and reassemble connecting ring 3. If connecting ring 3 is damaged: Replace with a new connecting ring 3, ensuring a tight seal and strong connection.

[0034] This flame-retardant power cable protection pipe adopts a double-layer structure design, with an outer layer of chlorinated polyvinyl chloride (CPVC) and an inner layer of modified polypropylene (MPP), achieving a stable connection through connecting ring 3. This design offers the following advantages:

[0035] Excellent flame retardant performance: The outer layer of CPVC has a high flame retardant rating, while the inner layer of MPP is non-combustible, resulting in a significant improvement in overall flame retardant effect.

[0036] High compressive strength: The inner MPP layer has a compressive strength of 30-40MPa, and the outer CPVC layer works synergistically with the inner layer to achieve a ring stiffness of 40-50kPa.

[0037] Easy maintenance: The inner or outer layer of pipes can be replaced individually, reducing maintenance costs.

[0038] Although 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 alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
