The invention belongs to the technical field of cables, and particularly relates to a bending-resistant tow chain cable for a
robot, which comprises a conductor core layer, an insulating layer, an inner sheath layer, a
braid layer, a non-
woven fabric layer and an outer sheath layer, the insulating layer wraps the conductor core layer, the inner sheath layer is positioned outside the insulating layer, the
braid layer covers the inner sheath layer, the non-
woven fabric layer is positioned outside the inner sheath layer, and the non-
woven fabric layer is positioned outside the outer sheath layer. The non-woven fabric layer is wound on the
braid layer, the outer sheath layer wraps the non-woven fabric layer, the conductor core layer is formed by twisting a plurality of flexible tinned
copper wires and
aramid fibers, and the surfaces of the flexible tinned
copper wires are coated with
carbon nanotube coatings; according to the invention, the thickness of the
carbon nanotube coating is controlled to be 3-5 [mu] m, and the
carbon nanotube coating is prepared by adopting a
coating process, has excellent
conductivity and
mechanical strength, can effectively reduce the
contact resistance change of the flexible tinned
copper wire in the repeated winding process, and enhances the
wear resistance and
corrosion resistance of the surface of the
copper wire, thereby prolonging the service life of the conductor core layer.
