Definitions

  • the invention relates to a packaged gel article.
  • the invention further relates to the method of making a packaged gel article.
  • an electrical cable is divided into two or more components, for example, where a branch-off cable is connected to a main cable or where a cable containing two or more cores, is separated into the individual cores.
  • the cable insulation generally has been removed to permit the jointing of a branch-off cable or breakout of the cable cores. The area where the insulation has been removed must then be reinsulated.
  • the shielding and armoring is also removed and must be re-established. This is generally accomplished by installing an enclosure around that region of the cables.
  • breakout is used in this application to refer to either two or more cables or two or more cores where they separate from a main cable or cables.
  • Enclosures suitable for this use can be, for example, resin filled joint cases, polymeric sleeves or the like.
  • a number of methods have been used to seal breakouts with varying success.
  • a heat shrinkable polymeric boot may be positioned on the breakout using mastic or adhe ⁇ sive to hold the boot in place. Heat shrinkable boots however are costly to manufacture because of their shape and usually require access to the cable conductor ends to slip the boot into the proper position over the breakout area.
  • Adhesives and mastics have been put in the area between the breakout cable core and the main cable (crotch area) to seal but these are difficult to pack into the crotch area without leaving voids resulting in a poor seal and may require heat to cause them to flow and fill the crotch area.
  • the appli ⁇ cation of heat can damage the conductor covering or the con ⁇ ductor.
  • Tapes of dimensionally stable polymeric material with an adhesive or mastic have been used to wrap the cable breakout area but tend to leak if not properly overlapped.
  • Shaped articles have been used as sealing elements in a variety of methods.
  • Tn US 4,438,294 a sealing element of a thermoplastic or plastic material for a cable entrance socket is disclosed.
  • the sealing element seals the area between the sheaths of cables using straight sided or con ⁇ cave articles which surround only a portion of the cable and conductors in the crotch area.
  • No gels are disclosed and the thermoplastic or plastic materials described are substantially non-tacky and rigid.
  • polymeric article comprising a cylindrical member with a plura ⁇ lity of channels for enclosing a plurality of cables.
  • the articles may seal by being made heat recoverable or may be sealed with an adhesive or mastic. They are non-tacky, and useful to seal, protect and insulate cables. No gels are described.
  • a branch off seal is disclosed comprising a heat recoverable sleeve and one or more clips attached to the sleeve opening to form the sleeve into a desired number of cable conduits.
  • a variety of molds for casting shaped articles are well known. Reusable molds made of metal, polymers, glass and ceramics are used in casting a wide variety of polymeric shapes and articles. Reusable molds are generally expensive to make and require that the article formed therein be packaged and handled separately. Disposable molds come in a variety of materials, for example wax.
  • the invention relates to a packaged gel article and a method of manufacturing a packaged gel article.
  • the packaged gel article comprises a mold and a shaped article:
  • said mold comprising a hollow cylindrical con ⁇ figuration having a circumference substantially corresponding to the shaped article which is in the mold;
  • said.,mold having therein a shaped article comprising a polymeric gel.
  • the gel having a cone penetration value of about 30 to about 400 (lO -1 mm) and an elonga ⁇ tion of from about 25% to about 850%
  • said mold and mandrels being made of a relatively rigid material having a flexural modulus of at least about 4x10-3 psi that is substantially incompatible with the shaped article, is dimensionally stable at the tem ⁇ perature the gel was formed at and has a release rate from the gel composition of at least 0.02 in/sec on 180° peeling.
  • the invention also relates to a method of manufacturing a shaped article having one or more holes extending at least partially therethrough and a mold, which method comprises:
  • said mold and mandrels being made of a relatively rigid material having a flexural modulus of at least about 3 4x10 psi that is substantially incompatible with the shaped article, is dimensionally stable at the gel forming tem ⁇ perature and has a release rate from the gel composition of at least 0.02 in/sec on 180° peeling to obtain a shaped article having one or more holes extending at least par ⁇ tially therethrough, the number of holes corresponding to the number of mandrels used in step ( ⁇ ).
  • the mold of the invention is made of a relatively rigid material having a flexural modulus of at least about
  • the mold While other orga ⁇ nic or inorganic materials may be suitable for the mold e.g. certain metals or alloys, it is preferred in the invention that the mold be made of a polymeric material.
  • Preferred polymers include polycarbonates, polyethylene, polypropy ⁇ lene, polystyrene, ABS, polyester, polyamides, fluoropoly- mers and silicone surface treated plastics. Especially preferred are polycarbonates.
  • the mold material must be dimensionally stable at the gel forming temperature i.e. must have a melting point or glass transition temperature higher than the highest tem ⁇ perature that the liquid composition capable of forming a gel attains during the making of the shaped article in the mold. It can also be supported during gel formation e.g. an exterior support in order to maintain the dimensional stability.
  • relatively rigid is meant that the mold material has a flexural modulus of at least about 4x10 3 psi and pre-
  • the mold material must release from the gel relatively easily during installation of the shaped article e.g. on a cable breakout. If the release rate is too low the shaped article may tear or stretch out of shape and thus be unu ⁇ sable. It has been found that a lower degree of releasabi- lity is preferred. Since the shaped article is to be stored in the mold, it is preferred that the shaped article stick in the mold enough to keep from falling out due to general gravitational or other minor pulling forces. In general the release rate should be at least 0.02 in/sec. for a one- eight inch thickness of polymeric gel on a 6 inch 1 inch strip of mold material to which a 1 lb. weight has been attached such that the pulling force is at an angle of 180° to the mold material. The releaseability can be achieved either by the material chosen for the mold itself or by coating or lining the interior of the mold to control release.
  • the mold material be notch sensitive.
  • notch sensitivity is meant that the material will readily break under normal manual pressure once the material has been notched or scored to facilitate removal of the mold material.
  • Notch sensitivity is measured by ASTM D-256. Notch sensitivity is desirable to aid in the removal of the mold or part of the mold from the shaped article. After scoring the mold, pressure applied to the area around the score by squeezing or the like will cause the mold material to break along the score. The edge formed at the break can be grasped to pull the mold away from the shaped article.
  • a portion of the mold material can be left on the shaped article upon installation.
  • the remaining mold portion may act as a cover or other protective means for any exposed portions of the shaped article.
  • the mold may be formed by any convenient means based on the material chosen for the mold. So for example, where polymers are chosen the mold may be made by extrusion, or thermoforming such as blow or injection molding.
  • the mandrels are chosen with the same requirements as the mold material.
  • the mandrels are designed preferably cylindri ⁇ ally such that when inserted into the mold the mandrels will cause holes to be formed at least away through the shaped article.
  • the number of mandrels should correspond to the number of holes desired in the shaped article.
  • the mandrel may also be an integral part of the mold.
  • the hole may be formed on the edge of the article ( Figure 6) by such integral mandrel.
  • the shaped article preferably has a number of holes, corresponding to the number of cables or cores of the breakout.
  • the holes are formed preferably slightly smaller than the size of the cable that is to be inserted therein.
  • the gels used in the invention will stretch to accommodate the increased size cable and the tension created provides a better seal.
  • the number of holes should correspond to the number of cables to pass therethrough.
  • the holes may be stretched by placing tubes, mandrels or other articles in the holes to keep them in an expanded condition prior to placing the shaped article around the cables.
  • the tubes mandrels or other articles may be an integral part of the mold itself or they may be interested later prior to placing the shaped article around the cable. The tubes may then be removed when the shaped article is in place.
  • a hole may also be larger or the same size as the cable.
  • the slit may be formed by using one or more tubes end insertion with an additional piece of material target to the edge of tube which runs to the edge of the mold which forms an integral pact of the mold of the inven ⁇ tion. (See e.g. Figure 1 and 2).
  • the polymeric gel is selected such that it has a cone penetration value as measured by ASTM D-937-77, of from about 30 to about 400 (10 ⁇ mm) and preferably from about 50 to about 350 (10 ⁇ 1 mm). Further, said gel is selected such that it has an elongation, as measured by ASTM D-412, of from about 25% to about 850% and more preferably from about 100% to 750%.
  • the gels may further be selected for their insulation, stress grading, or conductive properties as well as sealing. Generally,- it is preferable that the gel should have a dielectric constant (permittivity) of less than 6 at 50 Hz for insulating gels and greater than 6 for stress grading gels (as measured by ASTM D-150).
  • the gels pre ⁇ ferably have a volume resistivity of at least 10 ⁇ ohm-cm (as measured by ASTM D-257).
