FR2565023A1 - Conductor cable having a jacket which is self-bonding to any support - Google Patents

Abstract

The present invention relates to the securing of cables and conductor wires. The invention, which is the subject of the present application, consists of a cable comprising three copper cores 1 protected respectively by a jacket 2 and joined together in a common jacket 8, which has a width greater than its thickness, so that adhesive 4 protected by a removable strip 5 is distributed over one of the widths.

Description

 The present invention relates to the sheaths of cables or conductive wires and more particularly to the means for fixing said sheaths inside the premises and outside as well in aerial, land and underwater environments.

 Currently the conductive wires or cables are fixed by means of their sheath, on the interior walls and partitions with small spikes or staples which deteriorate the supports.

In addition, fixing to the support requires the use of collars and tools such as: hammer, pincers or stapler, etc., which can expose the user to awkwardness causing damage to the core generally made of copper.

 The object of the present invention is to avoid these drawbacks by eliminating any perforation, facilitating installation while offering great rigidity and holding the target on the support. I1 results in no deterioration of the support.

 The invention which is the subject of the present application consists in the means of rendering the sheath of a conductive cable self-adhesive.

The conductive cable may consist of a rigid, flexible, tinned, bundled core, etc., which core being made of copper or aluminum or any other suitable material.

 From all types of conductive cable provided with an insulating sheath indifferently made of PVC, vulcanized elastomer, polychloroprene, etc. which sheath receives a layer of glue suitable for all supports and all materials including on it- even. The glued side of the sheath is protected by a non-sticky tape for storage and handling, pending final support.

 According to a design variant, the outer sheaths can be glued on one or more sides.

 The accompanying drawings illustrate, by way of non-limiting example, embodiments of a self-adhesive conductive cable which is the subject of the request.

 Figure 7 shows in section, the juxtaposition of two sheaths.

 FIG. 8 represents in section, an association of triangular cables.

 In FIG. 1 is shown a conductive cable containing two copper cores 1 respectively insulated in an intermediate sheath 2 of rubber, which intermediate sheaths 2 are joined together and protected by an external and common sheath 3 whose width is greater than the thickness, in such a way that on the outside surface of one of the widths is distributed glue 4 protected by a tape 5 of very low adhesion for the storage and handling of the conductive cable.

 FIG. 2 represents an optical cable comprising a core 6 protected by an outer sheath 7 made of polyethylene for example, which sheath 7 has received an oval shape to allow the coating of an adhesive 4 over a width protected by a temporary tape 5.

 FIG. 3 represents a variant design of a conducting cable, according to FIG. 1, containing three cores 1 protected respectively by an intermediate sheath 2 joined by an external sheath 8. Over the width of the sheath 8 is distributed glue 4 protected by an easily detachable tape 5.

 FIG. 4 represents a conductive cable containing three cores 1 protected respectively by an intermediate sheath 2 and insulated in a common circular sheath 9, to which is attached a base 10 conforming to its circumference and having a dish 11 coated with glue 4 protected by a ribbon 5 detachable.

 FIG. 5 represents a conductive cable containing three cores 1 protected respectively by an intermediate sheath 2 enclosed in a semi-circular sheath 12, which comprises a flat 13 substantially equal to or greater than its diameter. Glue 4 is distributed on the flat surface protected by a slightly adhesive and detachable tape 5.

 FIG. 6 represents three conductive cables respectively comprising a core 1 protected by sheaths 14, which are juxtaposed and fixed on a ribbon 15 made of PVC for example by heat welding, which ribbon 15 has its outer face glued and protected by a ribbon 5 weakly adhesive and detachable.

 FIG. 7 represents a conductive cable containing two cores 1 protected by intermediate sheaths 2 and insulated in a common sheath 16 with perpendicular outer sides 18, which sheath 16 can be juxtaposed with another sheath 17 glued on two sides and enclosing one or more souls.

 In Figure 8 is shown an association of cables 19 consisting of a sheath 20 respectively containing three cores 1 and having a triangular section, of which on two outer sides is distributed glue 4 so as to form by the juxtaposition of said cables 19 a polygon regular.
