Definitions
- Electric cables in particular battery cables for motor vehicles
- the subject invention relates to an electrical cable, in particular a battery cable for motor vehicles, with at least one consisting of a metal and formed with an electrical insulation electrical conductor, which is formed by a plurality of juxtaposed or superimposed and against each other and against the insulation displaceable sub-conductor.
- Motor vehicles are increasingly being equipped with electric and electronic devices which serve to control a variety of driving functions.
- a battery For electrical supply of the starter and the electrical and electronic devices is a battery, which is charged by a likewise arranged in the motor vehicle generator.
- the starter and the generator near the engine of the passenger vehicles and thus in the front area.
- the battery is usually located in the rear of the passenger vehicles.
- a power cable which has a relatively large cross section.
- electrical cables are approximately circular in cross-section.
- the advantage of such so-called. Round cable is that they are bendable in all directions, whereby they can be installed in motor vehicles in any way.
- the disadvantage of such round cables is that they have a diameter of about 10 mm to 20 mm, which in their installation spaces are needed, which are not available in some places of motor vehicles.
- the subject invention is therefore based on the object to provide an electrical cable, which therefore has the required dimensional stability in a bending, since the individual sub-conductors are guided together.
- an electrical cable is to be created, which, regardless of whether it is designed in the manner of a flat cable or a round cable, both from its plane and in its plane can be bent arbitrarily, wherein the resistance, which is opposed to bending , regardless of the type of cable in both bending directions is approximately equal.
- the individual sub-conductors have an at least approximately rectangular, in particular an at least approximately square cross-section and lie with flat surfaces together. Sliding layers are preferably located between the partial conductors.
- a plurality of sub-conductors are provided side by side, which form a cross-sectionally approximately rectangular conductor in function of a flat cable.
- a plurality of sub-conductors are provided side by side and one above the other, which form a cross-sectionally approximately square conductor in function of a round cable.
- a web can be located between a first group of sub-conductors and a second group of sub-conductors, which is integral with the insulation.
- four sub-conductors can be next to each other, wherein the web integral with the insulation is located between the second sub-conductor and the third sub-conductor.
- FIG.l an inventive electrical cable in the manner of a flat cable, in
- FIG. 2 shows an inventive electrical cable in the manner of a round cable, likewise in cross section.
- the cable shown in FIG. 1 consists of a metallic conductor 1, which is enveloped by an electrical insulation 2.
- the electrical conductor 1 consists of four juxtaposed sub-conductors 11, 12, 13 and 14, which each have an approximately square cross-section.
- the insulation 2 is connected by a located between the sub-conductors 12 and 13 web 21, which is integral with the insulation 2.
- the electrical conductor 1 is formed by four sub-conductors 11 to 14, which have approximately square cross-sections, the individual sub-conductors lie with flat surfaces to each other, whereby they are guided in a bending of the cable to each other.
- This gives this cable a great dimensional stability.
- This dimensional stability is also improved by the web 21. Since there are further sliding layers 3 between the sub-conductors 11 to 14 and the insulation 2 and the web 21, this electrical cable, although it is designed in the manner of a flat cable, not only be bent out of its plane, but it can also be be bent arbitrarily in its plane, wherein the moment of resistance, which is opposed to bending, in both directions is approximately the same size.
- the in FIG. 2 electrical cable shown in the manner of a round cable also consists of a metallic conductor Ia, which is surrounded by an insulation 2a, wherein the conductor Ia by four in cross section approximately square partial conductor I Ia, 12a, 13a and 14a is formed, which are adjacent to each other or one above the other, wherein the electrical conductor 1 is approximately square in cross-section
- the individual sub-conductors I Ia to 14a lie against each other with flat surfaces, whereby they are guided at a bending of the cable to each other, whereby a great dimensional stability is ensured.
- this electrical cable can be bent in two mutually perpendicular planes, wherein the bending resistance in the two planes is the same size. Since this electrical conductor Ia consists of four sub-conductors, which are mutually displaceable, the bending resistance compared to a one-piece electrical conductor is substantially reduced, whereby the cost of laying such a cable over round cables with one-piece electrical conductors is greatly reduced.
- the electrical conductors 1 and Ia are e.g. made of copper or aluminum.
- the individual sub-conductors have an at least approximately rectangular, in particular a square cross-section, whereby the juxtaposed sub-conductors are always with flat side surfaces together, wherein they are guided along these side surfaces to each other and against each other.
- This good displaceability is effected in particular by the sliding layers located between the abutting surfaces.
