Definitions
- the invention relates to a flame-resistant electrical line, consisting of at least one electrical conductor, a surrounding insulation and a band of glass fabric wrapped with overlapping edges around the insulated conductor, which is provided on one side with a metal layer (DE-PS 30 44 871) .
- Lines in the sense of the invention are to be those lines with which telecommunications signals can be transmitted with little loss and without interference. In principle, these are high-frequency (HF) lines and low-frequency (NF) lines.
- HF lines are used, for example, in radio relay and antenna systems as well as in FM, radio and television reception systems.
- LF lines are required, for example, for electroacoustics and sound frequency measurement technology. With just one conductor, they are used, for example, as connecting leads for crystal microphones, magnetic sound heads and dictation machines.
- the lines and for the materials used only their electrical properties are taken into account in order to achieve the best transmission properties.
- the lines themselves do not burn in the event of a fire and that they can function at least for a certain period of time even at very high temperatures.
- the word "flame-resistant” should be understood to mean the special properties of an electrical line in the event of a fire, which also include low smoke, non-flammability and freedom from halogen.
- DE-OS 28 00 688 describes an electrical cable with conductors whose insulation consists of a mica tape and an overlying layer of rubber.
- the insulated conductors (wires) of this cable are wrapped with an aluminum-plastic laminate.
- a polyester tape is wrapped around the cable core, over which a layer of a thermoplastic elastomer filled with aluminum hydroxide is attached.
- a glass fiber mat is wrapped over it, with a braided metal armor over it.
- a layer of chlorosulfonated polyethylene is attached as an outer protective jacket.
- the effort to manufacture such a cable is considerable. This applies both to the conductors, the insulation of which comprises a mica tape, and to the entire cable, whose sheath surrounding the cable core consists of five different layers, which cannot be applied in one operation. Such a cable can therefore hardly be used economically.
- the line according to the aforementioned DE-PS 30 44 871 is much simpler. Above the core formed by several insulated conductors, only a polyester tape coated with aluminum and an outer protective jacket made of plastic are attached. A highly filled polyvinyl chloride mixture is used to insulate the conductors. It should be achieved that the insulation even at very high temperatures of over 1000 ° C. remains stable so that short circuits are avoided. Because of the special insulating material, this known cable cannot be used for purposes with high demands on the transmission properties. In addition, if fire does get to the polyvinyl chloride for any reason, the polyvinyl chloride will start burning, releasing highly toxic and dangerous chlorine gas.
- the invention is based on the object of specifying a flame-resistant line which, while maintaining a simple structure, meets high requirements for its transmission properties and is non-combustible even at temperatures of over 1000.degree.
- a halogen-free polymeric plastic such as polyethylene, is used for the insulation of the conductor, which guarantees the favorable transmission properties of the line.
- This material is accepted for the good transfer properties, even though it is combustible per se.
- the tape is wound onto the insulation or shielding so that the metal layer is on the outside. It therefore acts like a closed metallic tube for a flame.
- the overlap is so small that this "tube” has enough gaps so that the gases that are generated when it is very hot can escape. This prevents the wrapping given by the tape from bursting.
- the shielding required for the purpose of the line is also surrounded by the band and therefore also protected by it.
- the sheath applied as the outer layer serves as mechanical protection for the entire line and in particular for the strip.
- Fig. 1 is a side view of a line according to the invention with layers removed in portions.
- Fig. 2 shows a section through Fig. 1 along the line II - II in an enlarged view.
- Fig. 3 is a side view of a modified compared to Fig. 1 line.
- Fig. 4 shows a section through Fig. 3 along the line IV - IV in an enlarged view.
- Fig. 1 an RF line with a conductor 1, insulation 2 and a shield 3 is shown.
- the conductor 1 can be designed as a stranded conductor with a multiplicity of individual wires combined or as a solid conductor. It is preferably made of copper.
- the shield 3 lying above the insulation 2 - also referred to as "outer conductor" in the case of HF lines - can consist of braided or stranded individual wires (FIG. 1). According to FIG. 3, it can also consist of a metal strip which is wrapped or longitudinally folded around the insulation 2.
- the shield 3 is preferably made of copper.
- a halogen-free polymer plastic is used as the material for the insulation 2.
- the insulation 2 consists of polyethylene. This material has excellent electrical properties. It is therefore ideally suited for HF lines.
- the insulation 2 can in principle also be made of another polymeric plastic, such as polypropylene. These materials are all highly flammable. For many applications, the HF line must therefore be constructed so that the insulation 2 cannot burn.
- a tape 4 is wound over the shield 3, which consists of a glass fabric provided on one side with a metal layer.
- the metal layer covers the band 4 over its entire length and width. It can consist of aluminum or copper, for example.
- the metal layer is on the outside of the pipe.
- a jacket 5 made of insulating material for protecting the tape 4 is attached above the tape 4. It can consist, for example, of a flame-retardant copolymer of polyethylene.
- a semiconducting layer 6 can also be applied over the insulation 2, over which the shield 3 lies. Layer 6 serves to avoid microphony.
- the line according to the invention with the structure shown in the exemplary embodiments is flame-resistant. It does not burn even in high heat and an open flame. In the area of an open flame, only the jacket 5 melts, so that the tape 4 or the metal layer thereof is exposed.
- the band 4 represents a barrier to open flames. It has a flame-retardant effect, so that the enclosed line and in particular the combustible insulation 2 are effectively protected. This also applies to temperatures of more than 1000 ° C.
- the overlap of the individual turns of the band 4 must therefore not be too large. But it must also not be too small so that the closed position formed by the band 4 does not open when the line is bent.
- the width "B" of the overlap should therefore be between 7% and 35% of the width of the band 4. In a preferred embodiment, the width of the overlap is 20%.
