[0022] The embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings will be described in further detail below.
[0023] Figure 1The high-temperature resistant flexible twisted-pair communication cable shown in the diagram includes a cable core and a wrapping layer, an inner shielding layer, an outer shielding layer, an intermediate layer, and an outer sheath that are sequentially wrapped around the cable core from the inside out. The cable core is characterized by having several conductors and filler wires arranged parallel to each other along the length of the cable (shown as two conductors + two filler wires in the diagram). The conductors include a conductor and an insulation layer and a high-temperature colored tape layer covering the conductor.
[0024] The conductor comprises a multi-strand copper wire stranded structure; the copper wire is silver-plated copper wire, wherein the outer diameter of a single copper wire is 0.08 mm. ~ The conductor has a diameter of 0.12 mm and a coating thickness of >1 μm, conforming to GJB1640A. Through a multi-strand stranded structure, compared to conventional concentric stranded conductors, the single filaments are thinner and the number of strands is greater. Furthermore, the multi-strand stranding and compression method results in a conductor with roundness similar to a single conductor, significantly improving its flexibility and allowing for a smaller bending radius. The physical arrangement provides better roundness, which is beneficial for achieving better attenuation uniformity and also reduces weight.
[0025] The insulation layer adopts a three-layer composite wrapping structure of low-density microporous tape and PTFE raw material tape: since PTFE material cannot be foamed, low-density microporous tape (LDPTFE, density 0.7 g / cm³) is used. 3 ) and polytetrafluoroethylene raw material tape (PTFE, density 1.5~1.6g / cm³) 3 The insulation structure consists of three layers: an inner layer of PTFE tape, an intermediate layer of LDPTFE tape, and an outer layer of PTFE tape. This three-layer wrapping process is completed in a single operation, controlling the tension of each layer between 300g and 400g and the overlap rate between 50% and 67%. This achieves the required outer diameter and basic transmission performance, with a transmission rate exceeding 83%. Finally, a high-temperature colored tape layer 4 (colored PTFE semi-oriented film) is wrapped around the insulation to distinguish the core wire colors.
[0026] After the insulation layer is processed, the core wire needs to undergo high-temperature curing at 125°C for 4 to 6 hours. This relatively uniform curing of the insulation layer allows for control of the stranding tension during subsequent cabling, ensuring uniformity and stability in the stranding process and ultimately achieving stable cable transmission performance.
[0027] Compared to solid PTFE pushed insulation, the insulation layer has a smaller insulation outer diameter, lower attenuation, higher transmission rate, and greater flexibility, with no risk of conductor layer breakage after bending.
[0028] The wrapping layer is made of polytetrafluoroethylene raw material tape with a material density of 1.5. ~ 1.6g / cm 3The wrapping tape is relatively soft, has low mechanical strength, and fits the cable core well, resulting in a smooth wrapping appearance.
[0029] The inner shielding layer is a silver-plated copper strip armor layer, using 0.04mm copper strip. ~ The coating thickness is 0.06mm, with a thickness of 2µm. The silver-plated copper strip armor uses a wrap-around structure, achieving 40% coverage. ~ A 50% overlap rate completely covers and controls the cable core, protecting the insulation layer from external mechanical damage, reducing cable loss, and achieving a better shielding effect.
[0030] The outer shielding layer is made of silver-plated copper wire braid: the silver-plated copper wire size is 0.08 mm. ~ 0.10mm, braiding density greater than 95%. The inner shielding layer is bonded with silver-plated copper strip, achieving a good shielding effect. The combined inner and outer shielding structure can effectively resist external electromagnetic interference, and the shielding attenuation value can be greater than 95dB.
[0031] The intermediate layer is a polyimide film wrapping layer to enhance the cable's torsional resistance.
[0032] The outer protective layer is extruded from a high-flexibility, high-strength, flame-retardant thermoplastic elastomer material: the material has excellent softness (Shore A 65-70) and low density (1.03 g / cm³). 3 High strength, excellent high and low temperature performance (long-term use at -50℃) ~ It possesses properties such as high temperature (up to 150℃). Furthermore, the material can be extruded into thin-walled layers, with a minimum thickness of 0.2mm. Stable wire diameter control is achieved by adjusting the temperature control and wire winding / unwinding of the extrusion equipment. The use and control of this type of material have reduced the weight of cables, making them more flexible and easier to install. Its applications in the military and aerospace fields have been perfectly demonstrated.
[0033] The filler wire is a solid PTFE wire, used to ensure the structural roundness of the cable and thus the stability of the product's transmission performance.
[0034] All materials described in this invention can be purchased externally.
[0035] The above is a detailed description of a high-temperature resistant flexible twisted-pair communication cable for a complete system provided by this utility model. For general manufacturers in this field, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas and principles of the embodiments of this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
