Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of industrial robot cable technology, and in particular to a high wear-resistant and bending-resistant automatic sorting robotic arm drag chain cable. Background Technology
[0002] In the intelligent utility tunnel operation and maintenance scenario, robots need to achieve power transmission and signal interaction through cables, but traditional cables have many technical bottlenecks. In terms of flexibility, conventional multi-strand stranded conductor structures are prone to fatigue fracture under long-term high-frequency bending conditions, leading to circuit interruptions. Simultaneously, common sheathing materials such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) harden and crack rapidly during repeated bending, severely impacting cable lifespan and safety. Regarding interference resistance, the single-layer copper mesh shielding structure used in traditional cables is insufficient to withstand the complex electromagnetic environment within utility tunnels. High-frequency electromagnetic noise generated by equipment such as frequency converters and motors can penetrate the single-layer shielding, causing distortion of robot control signals and data transmission errors, affecting normal robot operation. In terms of environmental adaptability, the complex environment within utility tunnels, including oil and moisture, poses a severe challenge to cables. Mineral oil, lubricating oil, and other oil contaminants can penetrate ordinary insulation materials, accelerating insulation aging and reducing insulation performance. Furthermore, extreme temperature changes significantly degrade the physicochemical properties of cable materials; high temperatures cause softening and deformation, while low temperatures induce embrittlement, further shortening cable lifespan. In terms of wear resistance, due to the frequent friction between the cable and the inner wall of the utility tunnel during the operation of the utility tunnel robot, or the repeated bending and friction at the joints of the robot, the insufficient wear resistance of traditional cable sheath materials becomes prominent. Ordinary polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or neoprene rubber sheaths are very prone to damage and peeling under continuous friction, exposing the internal conductors and causing short circuit risks, which seriously threaten the safety of robot operation and the stability of utility tunnel maintenance. Utility Model Content
[0003] To completely solve the above problems, this utility model proposes a high-wear-resistant and bending-resistant automatic sorting robot drag chain cable. It uses multi-strand silver-plated copper-tin alloy wires twisted into a conductor, covered with a modified TPU and ceramicized silicone rubber composite insulation layer, making it oil-resistant and temperature-resistant. A quadruple shielding layer provides precise anti-interference, and the Kevlar-reinforced PUR sheath has a hardness of 95A-100A and a tensile strength ≥2000N, with a non-slip and wear-resistant surface. The specific technical solution is as follows: A high wear-resistant and bending-resistant automatic sorting robot drag chain cable includes a silver-plated alloy conductor. The outer surface of the silver-plated alloy conductor is sequentially covered with a composite insulation layer, a quadruple shielding layer, and a Kevlar fiber reinforced sheath. The quadruple shielding layer consists of an aluminum foil longitudinal wrapping layer, a nano-graphene copper mesh, a ferrite absorbing layer, and a silver-plated copper wire braided mesh, from the inside out.
[0004] Preferably, a 0.1mm high-temperature resistant polyester film is sandwiched between the composite insulation layer and the quadruple shielding layer.
[0005] Preferably, each of the four shielding layers is sandwiched with a 0.1mm high-temperature resistant polyester film.
[0006] Preferably, the silver-plated alloy conductor is formed by stranding multiple copper-tin alloy wires, with a stranding pitch of 46 times the wire diameter; each copper-tin alloy wire is covered with a silver plating layer, and the thickness of the silver plating layer is 0.002mm-0.005mm.
[0007] Preferably, the composite insulation layer is a double-layer structure of modified TPU and ceramicized silicone rubber, with oil resistance meeting ISO67211A level and a temperature resistance range of 50℃-150℃.
[0008] Preferably, the sheath material is a mixture of PUR, Kevlar fiber, and molybdenum disulfide, with a hardness of 95A-100A and a tensile strength ≥2000N.
[0009] Preferably, the thickness of the ferrite absorbing layer is 0.1 mm, which is used to target and absorb interference in the 10 kHz to 100 MHz frequency band.
[0010] Preferably, the outer surface of the Kevlar fiber reinforced sheath is provided with a diamond-shaped anti-slip texture.
[0011] Preferably, the outer surface of the Kevlar fiber reinforced sheath is provided with embedded wear-resistant strips.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. The silver-plated alloy conductor of this utility model adopts a multi-strand stranded structure and a metal plating process to reduce energy loss in current transmission, reduce signal attenuation, ensure stable signal transmission of the automatic sorting robot arm, and enable it to execute action commands accurately.
[0013] 2. The four-layer shielding of this utility model forms a multi-level electromagnetic shielding system through the composite design of different materials, which can effectively block external electromagnetic interference and prevent the robotic arm from malfunctioning due to signal disorder.
[0014] 3. The Kevlar fiber reinforced sheath of this utility model, combined with the surface anti-slip structure, enhances the cable's anti-friction ability during drag chain movement, while improving its bending resistance, reducing structural damage caused by long-term reciprocating motion, and extending its service life.
[0015] 4. The composite insulation layer of this utility model adopts a double-layer structure of special polymer material and rubber, which has both oil resistance and wide temperature adaptability, and can maintain insulation stability in the complex environment in which the robotic arm works; the sheath material integrates a variety of high-performance components, and has the dual advantages of chemical corrosion resistance and wear resistance.
[0016] 5. The present invention provides a high-temperature resistant insulating film between the insulating layer and the shielding layer, and between each layer of the shielding layer. This not only improves the interlayer insulation, but also maintains structural stability in high-temperature environments, avoiding interlayer adhesion or performance degradation caused by temperature changes.
[0017] 6. The scientific ratio of conductor stranding process and sheath material in this utility model reduces weight while ensuring cable strength, making it more suitable for flexible dragging in high-speed robotic arm scenarios and reducing equipment load pressure. Attached Figure Description
