Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention is further described in detail with reference to the following embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention. In addition, the technical features involved in the respective embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
The armored optical cable is formed by wrapping a protective armor layer outside an optical fiber, and is mainly used for meeting the requirements of a client on rat bite prevention, moisture prevention and the like. In the tunnel, when the laying length of the pipeline is 10km and 12km, in order to improve the installation and conveying length of the optical cable, the optical cable needs to bear larger propelling force in a propeller so as to overcome the resistance of the front end of the optical cable. However, such a pushing force acts on the optical fiber cable, and when the pushing force is greater than the tensile strength (tensile resistance) of the optical fiber cable, the optical fiber cable is overstretched, so that the optical fiber in the optical fiber cable is subjected to partial extrusion force, the attenuation of the optical fiber exceeds the standard, and even the optical fiber is broken. Therefore, in long-distance transmission, armored optical cables with higher optical cable density, higher rigidity and better mechanical property are preferred.
The cable density values of armored cables are large and are generally as follows: 1.2-1.5 g/cm 3 In the process of laying in water, the optical cable cannot be always in a suspended state, and the friction force between the optical cable sheath and the inner wall of the pipeline is still large.
The invention provides a water-laid armored optical cable, as shown in figures 1 and 2, a water-soluble layer is arranged on the surface of a waterproof outer sheath of the armored optical cable;
the water-soluble layer is made of water-soluble resin, the dissolving time of the water-soluble layer is 3-10min (23 ℃) at room temperature, the solubility is 85-95%, and the water-soluble layer is usually made of water-soluble resinThe kinematic viscosity of the saturated aqueous solution is 60-110 mm under the warm condition (23℃) 2 (ii)/s, oil balance (HLB) of 17 to 22; the purpose of the water-soluble layer is to play a role in lubricating in cooperation with the water laying process of the optical cable, reduce the friction force between the armored optical cable and the inner wall of the pipeline, and provide larger buoyancy force at the same time, so that the laying distance is prolonged as far as possible. Therefore, through experimental calculation, the kinematic viscosity of the aqueous solution is between 60 and 110mm 2 When the cable sheath is used between the first and the second, the friction force between the armored cable and the inner wall of the pipeline can be obviously reduced, the laying distance is prolonged, and the sheath surface defects such as scratch and puncture of the cable sheath layer caused by friction with the inner wall of the pipeline are reduced.
During the experiment test, when the laying distance of armor optical cable reaches kilometer magnitude, the comparatively obvious influence of the dissolving time of water-soluble layer has laid the distance, analyze its reason lie in adopting the water that has water-soluble layer to lay the armor optical cable and lay the process at water, on the one hand need in time dissolve in order to provide bigger buoyancy and littleer frictional force, on the other hand need maintain lubricated effect until being close to and lay the distance, so synthesize above factor, guarantee that water lays whole slow release, control its dissolving time and in 3~10min, can effectively improve the optical cable and carry out the limit distance that lays that water laid. The water laying distance of the armored optical cable can be increased to 9.0km (with a water-soluble layer) from 6.0km (without the water-soluble layer).
In addition, the water-soluble layer is in direct contact with the surface of the optical cable outer sheath in a long time from the production to the laying of the water-laid armored optical cable, the oil balance value of the water-soluble layer is an important factor influencing the stability of the optical cable, the water-soluble layer and the optical cable outer sheath are required to be made of different materials, the optical cable outer sheath is made of a water-insoluble material, the HLB is in a proper range, and the water-soluble layer and the sheath layer are easy to separate in the processing process and easy to peel off in the storage process due to over-high HLB so that the water-soluble layer fails; HLB is too low, leads to the interpenetration between water-soluble layer and the restrictive coating, and water lays the back of accomplishing, and the optical cable oversheath is ageing deformation easily, influences life. The HLB is selected to be between 17 and 22, so that the adverse effects can be reduced, and the requirements of various aspects such as manufacture, storage, service life and the like of the water laying optical cable can be met.
Preferred water-soluble resins contain, in parts by mass: 10 to 20 percent of polyethylene glycol, 50 to 75 percent of polyvinyl alcohol, 5 to 20 percent of cellulose acetate, 1 to 5 percent of sodium polyacrylate and 1 to 5 percent of potassium polyacrylate. The polyethylene glycol, the polyvinyl alcohol and the cellulose acetate are respectively in a liquid state, a solid state and a liquid state at normal temperature, the three are main factors determining the dissolution time and the dissolution efficiency, the slow release requirements are met through proper proportioning, the water-soluble layer is ensured to be slowly dissolved in the water laying process, and simultaneously the physical shape plasticity and the fluidity of the resin are ensured, so that the resin is suitable for the manufacturing process of coating or extrusion molding on one hand, particularly, the resin is matched with the extrusion melting temperature of an optical cable outer sheath material when being co-extruded and molded with the optical cable outer sheath, and on the other hand, the resin is not easy to deform and peel off in the storage and transportation processes. Since the main components of the water-soluble resin, such as polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl alcohol and cellulose acetate, mainly determine the oil balance value, the dissolution rate, the moldability and the oil balance value of the water-soluble resin should be considered to determine the proportions of the three. The sodium polyacrylate and the potassium polyacrylate mainly determine the kinematic viscosity of a saturated aqueous solution of the water-soluble resin, the parameter and the water laying condition determine the kinematic viscosity of the aqueous solution in the water laying process, and the effect of obviously reducing the friction between the optical cable sheath and the pipeline is difficult to achieve by the overlarge kinematic viscosity or the undersize kinematic viscosity of the aqueous solution in the water laying process. Under the actual water laying condition, when the kinematic viscosity of the saturated aqueous solution of the water-soluble resin is in the more proper range, the water-soluble resin is gradually dissolved in the pipeline, and the kinematic viscosity of the aqueous solution is maintained in the range for providing effective lubrication in the whole water laying process, so that the friction force between the sheath and the pipeline is reduced, the laying distance is prolonged, and the sheath is prevented from being damaged.
The water-soluble layers are longitudinally and continuously arranged or alternately and symmetrically arranged on the surface of the optical cable. The thickness of the water-soluble layer along the radial direction of the sheath layer is 10-30% of the maximum radial thickness of the sheath layer, and the cross-sectional area of the water-soluble layer is 5-20% of the whole area of the sheath.
The water-soluble layer arranged continuously can be manufactured at the same time of manufacturing the sheath layer as shown in figure 1, for example, a co-extrusion process can be adopted, and the processes of preparing the water-soluble layer and the sheath layer are simple; the sheath layer can be added after the sheath layer is manufactured, for example, a water-soluble layer can be formed outside the sheath layer by adopting a coating process so as to be compatible with the existing armored optical cable, more suitable for water laying and improve the laying distance.
When the water-soluble layers are alternately and symmetrically arranged on the surface of the optical cable, the structure is shown in fig. 2, the outer edge of the cross-sectional structure of the water-soluble layer is flush with the outer edge of the optical cable sheath, and a groove is reserved on the surface of the sheath after the water-soluble layers are dissolved, so that better propelling force is provided for the water laying process. The number of layers can be 8, 16 and 32; the central included angle between the layers can be 45 degrees, 22.5 degrees and 11.25 degrees; the cross section of the material is preferably of a special-shaped structure and can be in an inverted cone shape, a long strip shape, an inverted trapezoid shape, a semicircular shape, a semi-elliptical shape and a semi-rhombic shape.
The longitudinally continuous and symmetrical water soluble layers are preferably prepared by a coextrusion process.
The water-soluble resin of the water-soluble layer is directionally released to the space between the sheath layer and the inner wall of the pipeline and reacts with the high-speed water flow in the pipeline to form a water mixed solution.
When the armored optical cable for water laying is used for water laying, the water flow speed is between 40 and 50m/min, and the water flow is between 40 and 55L/min. The water flow speed and the water flow influence the dissolving process of the water-soluble layer and the kinematic viscosity of the water solution during water laying, so that the water flow speed and the water flow are controlled to ensure that the water solution provides good lubrication in the water laying process.
The invention provides a water-soluble resin, the dissolving time of which is 3-10min (23 ℃) at normal temperature, the solubility of which is 85-95 percent, and the kinematic viscosity of a saturated aqueous solution is 60-110 mm 2 (ii)/s, oil balance (HLB) of 17 to 22; preferably contains the following components in parts by mass: 10 to 20 percent of polyethylene glycol, 50 to 75 percent of polyvinyl alcohol, 5 to 20 percent of cellulose acetate, 1 to 5 percent of sodium polyacrylate and 1 to 5 percent of potassium polyacrylate.
