Description

Die Erfindung liegt auf dem Gebiet der elektrischen Kabel und Leitungen und ist bei der konstruktiven Ausgestaltung eines Litzenleiters für flexible elektrische Leitungen anzuwenden.The invention is in the field of electrical cables and wires and can be used in the structural design of a stranded conductor for flexible electrical lines.

Litzenleiter für elektrische Kabel und Leitungen bestehen aus einem oder mehreren Litzenelementen (Bündeln), die durch Verseilen oder Verwürgen mehrerer feiner Einzeldrähte hergestellt sind. Bei verseilten Litzenelementen sind die Einzeldrähte einander lagenweise fest zugeordnet. Diese Litzenelemente enthalten infolge des Lagenaufbaus eine ganz bestimmte Anzahl von Einzeldrähten. Bei verwürgten Litzenelementen sind die Einzeldrähte einander nicht eindeutig zugeordnet. Diese Litzenelemente können aus beliebig vielen Einzeldrähten im Bereich zwischen 10 und 100 Drähten bestehen. Dabei sind auch Aufbauten üblich, bei denen jeweils eine kleinere Anzahl von Einzeldrähten ein verwürgtes Unterelement und mehrere miteinander verwürgte Unterelemente das eigentliche Litzenelement, nämlich das Bündel, bilden (DE-A-29 25 050).Stranded conductors for electrical cables and wires consist of one or more stranded elements (bundles), which are made by stranding or twisting several fine individual wires. In stranded strand elements, the individual wires are firmly assigned to one another in layers. As a result of the layer structure, these strand elements contain a very specific number of individual wires. In the case of strangled strand elements, the individual wires are not clearly assigned to one another. These stranded elements can consist of any number of individual wires in the range between 10 and 100 wires. Constructions are also common in which a smaller number of individual wires form a choked sub-element and several choked sub-elements form the actual strand element, namely the bundle (DE-A-29 25 050).

Für den konstruktiven Aufbau einer beweglichen, mehradrigen Starkstromleitung ist es an sich bekannt, in den Zwickelräumen der verseilten Hauptadern zusätzliche Adern in Form von leitgummiumhüllten Hilfsleitern anzuordnen (DE-B-1 028 644).For the construction of a movable, multi-core power line, it is known per se to arrange additional cores in the gusset spaces of the stranded main cores in the form of auxiliary conductors covered with conductive rubber (DE-B-1 028 644).

Ausgehend von einem Litzenleiter mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffes des Anspruches 1 liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Litzenleiter, der einen elektrisch wirksamen Querschnitt von wenigstens 4 mm2 aufweist, so aufzubauen, dass sich - im Vergleich zu den bekannten Aufbauten - bei gleichem elektrisch wirksamen Querschnitt ein kleinerer räumlicher Querschnitt ergibt.Proceeding from a stranded conductor with the features of the preamble of claim 1, the invention is based on the object of constructing a stranded conductor which has an electrically effective cross section of at least 4 mm 2 in such a way that - compared to the known structures - the same is electrical effective cross section results in a smaller spatial cross section.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist gemässder Erfindung vorgesehen, dass in den Zwickelräumen der verseilten Bündel zusätzliche Litzenelemente angeordnet sind.To achieve this object, according to the invention it is provided that additional strand elements are arranged in the gusset spaces of the stranded bundles.

Bei einem derartigen konstruktiven Aufbau des Litzenleiters kann der elektrisch wirksame Querschnitt der verseilten Bündel und damit auch der räumliche Querschnitt dieser Bündel kleiner gewählt werden. Dies hat einen verringerten Durchmesser des Litzenleiters als Ganzes zur Folge. Hieraus resultiert beim Aufbringen der Isolierung bei gegebener Wandstärke ein geringerer Materialverbrauch. Infolge des kleineren Durchmessers des Litzenleiters und damit auch der Ader treten bei mehradrigen Leitungen kleinere Abmessungen im Seelen- und Aussendurchmesser auf, so dass sich auf für Innen- und Aussenmantel ein geringerer Materialverbrauch einstellt.With such a structural design of the stranded conductor, the electrically effective cross section of the stranded bundles and thus also the spatial cross section of these bundles can be chosen to be smaller. This results in a reduced diameter of the stranded conductor as a whole. This results in lower material consumption when applying the insulation for a given wall thickness. As a result of the smaller diameter of the stranded conductor and thus also the wire, smaller dimensions in the core and outer diameter occur in the case of multi-core cables, so that less material is used for the inner and outer sheath.

Bei den in den Zwickelräumen angeordneten Litzenelementen kann es sich um verseilte oder verwürgte Elemente handeln. Vorzugsweise kommen aber auch Strähnen in Betracht, bei denen also mehrere feine Drähte unverseilt bzw. unverwürgt zu einem Litzenelement zusammengefasst sind. Für die in den Zwickelräumen angeordneten Litzenelemente werden feine Drähte verwendet, deren Durchmesser kleiner oder höchstens gleich ist dem Durchmesserderfürdie Bündel verwendeten Drähte.The stranded elements arranged in the gusset spaces can be stranded or choked elements. However, strands are preferably also considered, in which several fine wires are combined into a stranded element without being twisted or unwrapped. Fine wires are used for the strand elements arranged in the gusset spaces, the diameter of which is smaller or at most equal to the diameter of the wires used for the bundles.

Die Durchmesserreduzierung des neuen Litzenleiters kommt vor allem dann zum Tragen, wenn drei oder vier Bündel einen Litzenleiter bilden, da sich hierbei verhältnismässig grosse Zwickelräume ergeben.The diameter reduction of the new stranded conductor is particularly important when three or four bundles form a stranded conductor, since this results in relatively large gusset spaces.

Zwei Ausführungsbeispieledes neuen Litzenleiters sind in den Figuren 1 und 2 dargestellt.Two embodiments of the new stranded conductor are shown in Figures 1 and 2.

Der Litzenleiter 1 gemäss Fig. 1 besteht aus drei verseilten Bündeln 2, in deren Zwickelräumen die zusätzlichen verseilten Litzenelemente 3 angeordnet sind. - Beim Litzenleiter 4 gemäss Fig. 2 sind in den Zwickelräumen der verseilten Bündel 2 zusätzliche Litzenelemente 5 in Form von Strähnen angeordnet.1 consists of three stranded bundles 2, in the interstices of which the additional stranded strand elements 3 are arranged. In the stranded conductor 4 according to FIG. 2, additional stranded elements 5 in the form of strands are arranged in the interstices of the stranded bundles 2.
