This invention belongs to the field of cable technology, specifically a
copper alloy high-current flexible medium-
voltage power cable. It comprises an inner conductor, a conductor shielding layer, an electrical
insulation layer, an
electric field shielding layer, a metallic shielding layer, a bistable layer, and an outer sheath. The bistable layer consists of inner and outer bistable
layers with elongated oval cross-sections, forming a straight region and an arc-shaped region between them. The arc-shaped region has a mesh structure, while the straight region has corresponding first and second support structures. In the straight state, the support structures are in contact, resulting in high
bending stiffness and a rigid cable. Under bending conditions, the support structures separate, the mesh structure deforms, the
bending stiffness drops sharply, and the cable becomes flexible. This invention achieves controllable switching between rigid and flexible states through the bistable layer, adapting to complex working conditions requiring self-supporting crossing and flexible bending, such as mobile power supply, ship tunnels, and
robot cables.
