[0019] Example
[0020] like Figure 1 The railway vehicle lead cable shown includes an intermediate conductor 10, an intermediate rubber insulation layer 11 disposed on the outer layer of the intermediate conductor 10, an intermediate braided shielding layer 12 disposed on the outer layer of the intermediate rubber insulation layer 11, an outer rubber insulation layer 13 disposed on the outer layer of the intermediate braided shielding layer 12, a filler layer 14 filled between the intermediate braided shielding layer 12 and the outer rubber insulation layer 13, and an outer rubber sheath layer 18 disposed on the outer layer of the outer rubber insulation layer 13.
[0021] The above-described lead cable is suitable for connecting the windings of motors with an AC rated voltage of 6000V and below; it has a wide temperature range of -20°C to 105°C; tensile strength of 5.72 NMPa and traction breaking tension of 81.68 N; it is practical and durable.
[0022] In addition, the intermediate core conductor 10 is preferably composed of one inner tin-plated copper wire and eight outer and inner tin-plated copper wires. The outer and inner tin-plated copper wires are evenly spaced on the outer layer of the inner tin-plated copper wire, which has good conductivity, physical and mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. It also has the characteristics of high conductivity, good processing performance and welding performance.
[0023] In addition, the filler layer 14 is preferably polypropylene resin or polyethylene wax. Polypropylene resin has good flexibility and plasticity, which can fill the gaps inside the cable and fix the internal structure of the cable. Polyethylene wax is a stable filler material with excellent hydrolysis resistance and insulation properties.
[0024] In addition, the preferred lead cable for railway vehicles also includes eight outer conductor cores 15, an outer rubber insulation layer 16 disposed on the outer layer of the outer conductor cores 15, and an outer braided shielding layer 17 disposed on the outer layer of the outer rubber insulation layer 16.
[0025] Among them, eight outer conductor cores 15 are located inside the filler layer 14 and are evenly spaced on the outer layer of the middle conductor core 10. The above design enhances the overall strength of the lead cable (tensile strength, traction breakage tension) while also achieving stable conductivity performance.
[0026] In addition, preferably the middle braided shielding layer 12 and the outer braided shielding layer 17 are copper wire braided shielding layers. The higher the braiding coverage (coverage is 65%, 85%, 90%, etc.), the better the shielding effect is usually. It has good flexibility and can adapt to the bending and movement of the cable, and will not break easily.
[0027] In addition, preferably, the middle conductor 10, the middle rubber insulation layer 11 and the middle braided shielding layer 12 form a circular structure, and the outer conductor 15, the outer rubber insulation layer 16 and the outer braided shielding layer 17 form a circular structure.
[0028] The diameter of the circular structure formed by the middle conductor 10, the middle rubber insulation layer 11, and the middle braided shielding layer 12 is larger than the diameter of the circular structure formed by the outer conductor 15, the outer rubber insulation layer 16, and the outer braided shielding layer 17, ensuring the mechanical properties of the overall lead cable, including drag resistance and tensile strength.
[0029] The lead cable of this structure is particularly suitable for wiring electrical equipment inside locomotives and rolling stock. Its flexible structure allows it to be used in environments contaminated with mineral oil and fuel oil.
[0030] It should be noted that, in this document, terms such as "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
[0031] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
