Definitions
- the invention relates to a self-supporting overhead line cable with a plurality of metallic wires and at least one strain relief element made of a plurality of reinforcing fibers arranged in a strand-like manner, the reinforcing fibers being impregnated with a binding material and forming a composite element.
- An overhead line cable of this type is known from European Patent No. 25 461.
- the metallic wires and the strain relief element are each arranged in a cross-section that is independent of one another.
- the strain relief element consists of synthetic fibers running approximately parallel to one another, which are surrounded by a protective jacket, this protective jacket simultaneously enclosing the metallic wires and the
- the protective jacket is also necessary to protect the synthetic fibers from ultraviolet rays, for example as a result of sunlight.
- the synthetic fibers can take up a much higher tensile stress than the metallic wires.
- Fibers made from organic polymers are described as suitable synthetic fibers.
- the synthetic fibers are impregnated with a binder material, for example a natural resin, which resin is said to disintegrate into powder when overstressed. Since overhead lines of this type are a sheathing for connecting the strain relief element to the metallic wires need, the structure is complicated and time-consuming.
- the cables used in high-voltage overhead lines today mostly consist of a combination of steel and aluminum wires or of high-strength aluminum alloys.
- the aluminum wires are used because of their low weight and, at the same time, relatively good conductivity. Since they have a low tensile strength, overhead line ropes made of pure aluminum wires must be included
- the overhead line rope according to the invention essentially has the same structure as an overhead line rope made of steel and aluminum wires or, for example, the aluminum alloy Aldrey. Purely aluminum wires are expediently used for the conductors, since these represent the cheapest solution. Depending on the application, wires made of copper or another conductive material can also be used.
- the strain relief elements consist of composite elements which consist of reinforcing fibers embedded in a hardenable synthetic resin. In principle, all fibers which can be used in composite materials can be used as reinforcing fibers. Fibers made from aromatic polyamides, glass fibers or so-called Kevlar fibers have proven to be particularly suitable.
- These fibers are arranged in a strand-like manner and approximately parallel to one another and are embedded in a hardened reactive synthetic resin in such a way that a rod-shaped element with a solid structure and a fixed cross section is formed.
- the cross-sectional shape of these composite elements is determined by the desired type of reinforcement of the overhead line cable according to the invention.
- a particularly simple manufacture of the overhead line cable according to the invention is possible if the composite elements serving as strain relief elements have the same cross-sectional area and shape as the metallic wires.
- Such composite elements can be stranded with the metallic wires without difficulty, the number of composite elements embedded between the metallic wires being determined by the desired tensile strength of the overhead line cable.
- the composite elements Due to the incorporation of the fibers in hardened synthetic resin, the composite elements have a dimensionally stable cross-section, which cannot be compressed by the metallic wires during stranding. In contrast to previous experiments with strain relief elements made of reinforcing fibers, this gives the possibility of a dimensionally stable
- the overhead line rope formed in this way can be clamped at the ends with the known devices, since the strain relief elements are arranged between the conductors and stranded with them.
- the composite elements have a strain relief elements compared to those made of steel depending on the fiber material selected the factor 1.5 to 4 less weight. With the same tensile strength of the relief elements, the weight and thus the conductive cross section of the metallic wires can be increased. This results in a higher transmission performance for a cable of the same weight. With a suitable combination of reinforcing fibers with the synthetic resin, higher strength values can also be achieved. This results, for example, when using aramid fibers in combination with unsaturated polyester resins or with epoxy resins.
- the arrangement with a waveguide in the core is simple to manufacture and is used in particular as an earth rope. If necessary, an optical cable can be pulled into the waveguide, which can move freely with respect to the metallic wires.
- the optical cable is not a component the supporting structure and is therefore well protected against deformation.
- Overhead cables according to the invention have an approximately 70% higher transmission capacity than conventional aluminum steel cables of the same weight per unit length. This makes it possible to transmit higher performance on existing routes when using the ropes according to the invention. With the same transmission performance, a overhead line rope of the type according to the invention becomes lighter, and the associated supporting masts and guy lines can be made lighter and simpler, or it can larger spans between the individual masts are provided. The consequence of this is that the construction costs of such overhead line routes are reduced and the further advantage that smaller masts can be better fitted into the landscape.
- Fig. 1 shows a cross section through an inventive
- FIG. 2 shows a cross-section through an inventive one
- FIG. 3 shows a cross section through an overhead line rope with reinforcing elements which differ
- the overhead line cable shown in Figure 1 consists of metallic wires 1, which are stranded in three layers 7, 8 and 9.
- the core 2 is also formed from a metallic wire 1.
- composite elements 3 and 4 are arranged in the cavities 5, between the first layer 7 and the second layer 8 and in the cavities 6 between the second layer 8 and the third layer 9, composite elements 3 and 4 are arranged.
- These composite elements 3, 4 consist of polyaramid fibers which are embedded in a hardened synthetic resin. In this example, an unsaturated polyester resin dissolved in styrene is used as the synthetic resin. Such resins are known under the name Leguval from Bayer.
- the composite elements 3, 4 have a circular cross section, which is firm and dimensionally stable.
- the metallic wires 1 of all layers 7, 8, 9 and the core 2 have one
- the overhead line cable shown consists of 37 metallic wires 1, with which a conductive transverse
- the composite elements 3 have a diameter of 1.17 mm and the composite elements 4 of 1.07 mm. As a further characteristic value for the rope, this results in a weight of 907 kg / km and a breaking strength of approx. 80,000 N.
- a conventional overhead line cable made of steel / aluminum wires with the same weight per km has only one
- FIG. 2 shows a cross section through an overhead line cable with metallic wires 1 and composite elements 10, which are likewise arranged between the metallic wires 1 and have the same cross section as these.
- Polyaramide fibers which are processed together with the hardened synthetic resin to form a rod-shaped composite element 10 with a circular cross section, also serve as reinforcement elements.
- These composite elements 10 are as dimensionally stable as the metallic wires 1 and can therefore be stranded with these metallic wires 1 in a known manner without difficulty.
- Two composite elements 10 are arranged in the first layer and three in the second layer. There are no composite elements 10 in the third and outer layer 9, since the material used is not resistant to ultraviolet radiation.
- the rope according to the invention cuts for this rope is 193 mm.
- the rope also has a weight of 912 kg / km.
- the conductive cross section of the overhead line rope according to FIG. 2 is therefore also considerably larger here, namely 63%. . It is obvious that even in this embodiment according to the invention, considerably higher outputs can be transmitted with the same weight load on a route.
- the rope according to the invention has a higher one Strength by the breaking strength being approx. 55% higher than with the steel-aluminum rope mentioned.
- the overhead line cable shown in cross section in FIG. 3 shows an embodiment which can be produced on a stranding machine with a limited number of wire feeds. If, for example, the stranding machine has only 48 wire feeds, a rope according to FIG. 1 cannot be produced in one operation.
- the overhead line cable according to FIG. 3 has, as core 2 and in the inner layer 7, a total of four composite elements 10, which have the same cross section as the metallic wires 1. In the cavities "5 of the inner layer 2, six additional encryption are composite elements 3 inserted with a smaller cross-section and are stranded with the wires.
- the composite elements 3 and 10 are completely surrounded by metallic wires 1 and are thus protected from the action of the harmful ultraviolet radiation. If necessary, further layers of wires can be applied to the rope shown here and stranded to form a larger rope.
- the overhead line cable shown in Figure 4. corresponds in the construction of the metallic wires 1 and the composite elements 10 to the overhead line cable according to FIG. 2.
- the inner layers in the cable shown are replaced by a hollow body 16 which has a cavity 17.
- the rope has an outer layer 15 of metallic wires 1, and the composite elements 10 are all arranged in the inner layer 9 here.
- the rope shown is used in particular as a grounding rope. If necessary, optical conductors can be inserted into the cavity 17 of the hollow body 16. These optical conductors advantageously have a waveform, as a result of which any changes in length or deformations of the overhead line cable can be compensated for.
- This version is a particularly simple and inexpensive combination of an overhead line cable with metallic wires and an integrated optical conductor.
