  Conventional dry termination connection portions include an insulator-type self-supporting dry termination connection portion and a rubber dry termination connection portion.

  Referring to FIG. 2, the insulator-type self-supporting dry termination connecting portion 101 peels off the cable sheath 105 at the termination portion of the cable 103 to expose the cable insulator 107 and the internal conductor 109 therein, The cable insulator 107 is inserted into the through hole 111A inside the porcelain soot tube 111. The inner conductor 109 at the tip of the cable insulator 107 is connected to a terminal portion 113 provided at the upper end of the soot tube 111. A cable 103 is drawn from the lower end of the soot tube 111, and a support fitting 115 is provided on the outer periphery of the lower portion of the soot tube 111.

  The above-described insulator-type self-supporting dry type terminal end connection portion 101 is attached and fixed to the arm metal 119 of the utility pole 117 via the support bracket 115 as shown in FIG. 3, for example. The terminal portion 113 is connected to a lead-in cable 123 drawn from the overhead electric wire path 121 and is protected by a rubber cover 125.

  Referring to FIG. 4, the rubber dry end connection 127 is a cable exposed by peeling off the end of the cable 103 in the same manner as the insulator type self-supporting dry end connection 101 shown in FIG. The insulator 107 is inserted into the cable insertion hole 133 and the rubber stress cone 135 inside the cylindrical rubber insulating layer 131 provided with a plurality of umbrella portions 129 on the outer periphery, and then the cable insulator 107 The inner conductor 109 at the tip is connected to a terminal portion 137 provided at the upper end of the rubber insulating layer 131. A cable 103 is drawn from the lower end of the rubber insulating layer 131, and a support fitting 139 is provided on the outer periphery of the lower portion of the rubber insulating layer 131.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the rubber dry-type terminal connecting portion 127 is attached and fixed to the arm metal 119 of the utility pole 117 via a support fitting 139. The terminal portion 137 is connected to a lead-in cable 123 drawn from the overhead electric wire path 121 and is protected by a rubber cover 141. Further, the lead-in cable 123 is fixed by a lever 145 of an arm metal 143 provided on the upper portion of the utility pole 117, so that the rubber dry-type terminal connecting portion 127 is supported so as not to fall down.

  Further, Patent Document 1 describes a self-supporting dry type termination connecting portion having a structure in which a terminal portion is provided at the tip of a metal rod that penetrates a rubber insulating layer.

  Incidentally, the conventional insulator-type self-supporting dry termination connecting portion 101 of FIG. 2 is self-supporting, but since a porcelain insulator tube 111 is used for the main body, an arm metal 143 and an insulator 145 as shown in FIG. Even if the lead-in cable 123 is not restrained, the phenomenon of deformation or sagging does not occur due to the weight of the terminal portion 113, but there is a problem that installation work and assembly work are not easy due to the heavy weight of the porcelain soot 111. .

  Further, in the conventional rubber dry end connection portion 127 shown in FIG. 4, since the rubber insulating layer 131 is used, it is light in weight so that it is easy to install and assemble, but is shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the electric wire had to be fixed by using the arm metal 143 and the insulator 145 provided on the upper part of the electric pole 117.

  In addition, Patent Document 1 discloses that the installation work is difficult because the rigid metal rod penetrates through the rubber insulating layer even though it is not heavy like the insulator-type self-supporting dry type termination connection portion 101. In addition, there is a problem that assembly work is not easy.

  Further, in order to attach the self-supporting dry type terminal end connection portion and the cable, it is necessary to use a diameter-enlarged support member that is formed into a cylindrical shape by winding a resin ribbon in a spiral shape. That is, after extending the diameter of the rubber insulating layer using the extension / contraction on the cylindrical shape of the diameter-enlarged support member, the cable is inserted into the cylindrical shape of the diameter-enlarged support member. Thereafter, the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion is attached to the cable while the resin ribbon of the diameter expansion support member is unwound. Therefore, the rubber insulating layer has to be expanded in diameter by the expanded diameter supporting member in advance, and there is a problem that the cost is high because the expanded diameter supporting member is required.

  Further, Patent Document 2 has a problem that the stress relaxation action is not sufficient. The inside of the heat-recoverable hard tube is not covered with the first shrinkable tube over the entire length, and a part of the outer periphery of the cable insulator is covered with the heat-recoverable hard tube. Therefore, since the heat-recoverable hard tube has no stress relieving action, there is a problem that the terminated electric cable connected to the self-supporting dry-type termination connection portion will eventually be broken.

  Further, since Patent Document 3 is self-supporting using a rigid insulating material, the weight can be reduced as compared with Patent Document 1, but the lower end of the rod-shaped insulator protruding from the lower end of the insulating sleeve and Since the conductor of the cable needs to be connected by a joint formed in advance, there is a problem that the connection work is not easy.

In order to achieve the problem to be solved by the above invention, the self-supporting dry termination connecting portion of the present invention is provided with a cable insertion hole portion into which an end portion of a cable having a cable insulator covering an internal conductor is inserted. An insulating layer having flexibility;
A terminal portion connected to the inner conductor of the end portion of the cable insulator inserted into the cable insertion hole portion, a terminal portion provided integrally on one end side of the cable insertion hole portion,
A flexible stress cone having a cylindrical shape through which the cable insulator can be inserted and integrally provided inside the insulating layer so as to be exposed on the inner peripheral surface on the other end side of the cable insertion hole; ,
Provided in the middle of the thickness of the insulating layer in a non-contact manner with the cable insulator, extending through the outside of the stress cone in the axial direction of the insulating layer and not penetrating to the terminal portion side And a self-supporting resin tube having electrical insulation and rigidity provided integrally with each other.
In the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion of the present invention, a self-supporting terminal fixing portion is provided for the insulating layer and the self-supporting resin tube to protrude outward from the stress cone and fix to a power pole, and the self-supporting terminal It is preferable that a reinforcing member is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the insulating layer at the fixed portion.
In the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion of the present invention, the self-supporting resin tube is preferably formed of a modified polyphenylene oxide resin.

  Moreover, it is preferable that the self-supporting dry type termination connection part of the present invention is provided with a conductor connection hole for inserting the internal conductor on one end side of the terminal part in the self-supporting dry type terminal connection part.

  In the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion of the present invention, it is preferable that the insulating layer and the stress cone are made of EP rubber or silicone rubber in the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion.

  As can be understood from the means for solving the problems as described above, according to the present invention, the self-standing resin tube, the terminal portion, the stress cone, and the insulating layer are integrated, so that the end portion of the cable is By simply inserting the cable insulator into the cable insertion hole, the connection work between the cable and the self-supporting dry termination connection can be completed easily, and the connection work time can be significantly reduced compared to the conventional dry termination connection. Moreover, since it is made of a lightweight material, the work on the pillar can be easily performed, and the connection work time can be shortened.

  Moreover, since the diameter expansion support member is not required, low cost can be realized.

  In addition, as a self-supporting structural member, a self-supporting resin tube having insulating properties and rigidity is provided in the middle of the thickness of the flexible insulating layer, and is arranged around the cable inserted into the cable insertion hole. As a result, even a cable having a thin inner conductor can be easily made independent. Therefore, it is possible to make the armature and the insulator necessary for the conventional dry dry end connection portion made of rubber unnecessary, and to make the mounting column clean in appearance.

  In addition, the self-standing resin tube is provided in the middle of the thickness of the integrally formed insulating layer so that the cable insulator is included in the flexible insulating layer having a stress relieving action. Therefore, it contributes to the improvement of the durability of the cable insulator, that is, the durability of the cable.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

  Referring to FIG. 1, a self-supporting dry terminal connection portion 1 according to this embodiment is provided with a flexible insulating layer 3 such as rubber. A plurality of umbrellas 5 are provided on the outer periphery of the insulating layer 3 to prevent deterioration of electrical characteristics due to rain, and a cable plug for inserting the end side of the cable 7 is inserted into the center of the insulating layer 3. The hole 9 is provided in the axial direction of the insulating layer 3.

  The cable 7 used in this embodiment includes, for example, a cable insulator 13 covering the inner conductor 11, an outer semiconductive layer 14 provided on the outer periphery of the cable insulator 13, and the outer semiconductive layer. 14 is constituted by a shielding layer 15 such as a copper tape provided on the outer periphery of the cable 14 and a cable sheath 17 such as PVC covering the shielding layer 15.

  Further, at one end side of the cable insertion hole 9, a metal terminal 19 for connecting to the internal conductor 11 at the end of the cable 7 inserted into the cable insertion hole 9 is integrally provided. ing. A conductor connecting hole 21 for inserting the internal conductor 11 is provided at one end (the lower end in FIG. 1) of the terminal portion 19.

  Further, a stress cone 23 having a cylindrical shape through which the cable insulator 13 can be inserted, such as a semiconductive rubber, is exposed on the inner peripheral surface of the cable insertion hole 9 so as to be exposed. It is integrally provided inside the insulating layer 3. As a result, the cable insulator 13 is fitted and held on the inner peripheral surface of the stress cone 23.

  In addition, in the middle of the thickness of the insulating layer 3, a self-standing resin tube 25 having electrical insulation and rigidity is extended in the axial direction of the insulating layer 3, and on the terminal portion 19 side. It is provided integrally with the insulating layer 3 without penetrating. In other words, the inner and outer sides of the self-supporting resin tube 25 are integrally provided in the insulating layer 3 so that a portion that contacts the cable insulator 13 and the self-supporting resin tube 25 does not occur. Therefore, the entire cable insulator 13 inserted into the cable insertion hole 9 is covered with the insulating layer 3 having a stress relaxation action.

  In this embodiment, the insulating layer 3, the stress cone 23, and the terminal portion 19 are integrally molded, and the self-supporting resin tube 25 and the insulating layer 3 are firmly and integrally bonded by an adhesive. .

  In addition, on the outer peripheral surface of the insulating layer 3, for example, a self-supporting terminal fixing reinforcing member 27 is attached to a self-supporting terminal fixing portion for fixing to a power pole (not shown) so that the strength is increased to attach a fixing metal fitting (not shown). Is integrally provided with, for example, an adhesive.

In order free standing dry sealing end 1 which is mainly used outdoors, so subjected to external forces such as wind and earthquake, wind load ^{7.84 × 10 -4 N / mm 2} (80kgf / m 2) The maximum is 21.8 MPa, the earthquake strength is 0.3 G, and it is rigid because it can withstand external force of 7.69 MPa (0.78 kgf / mm ² ) and is independent. As the self-supporting resin tube 25, it is important to use a resin tube that can withstand the maximum stress of 21.8 Mpa (2.2 kgf / mm ² ) applied to the above-mentioned self-supporting terminal fixing portion. Therefore, it is desirable to use a modified PPO resin (modified polyphenylene oxide) that can withstand a maximum stress of 21.8 Mpa as the self-supporting resin tube 25.

  Briefly describing the above configuration, the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion 1 includes a flexible insulating layer 3 made of rubber or the like that is lighter than the insulator around the rigid self-supporting resin tube 25, and this There is a flexible stress cone 23 made of rubber or the like built in the insulating layer 3, and a terminal portion 19 is integrally formed on the insulating layer 3.

  In addition, as a material of said insulating layer 3 and the stress cone 23, it is desirable to use EP rubber or silicone rubber excellent in electrical insulation performance.

  The manufacturing method of the above-mentioned self-supporting dry termination connection 1 will be described. Since the terminal 19 is made of metal, the insulating layer 3 is made of insulating rubber, and the stress cone 23 is made of semiconductive rubber, the material is different. Is molded by the following method.

  The terminal portion 19 is set in a main mold of a molding die, for example, as a molding die. After the stress cone 23 is attached to the core corresponding to the cable insertion hole 9, the core is set in the main mold. In addition, a core for forming a space for fitting the self-standing resin tube 25 is inserted into the cavity of the main mold. Subsequently, the rubber of the material of the insulating layer 3 is poured into the cavity of the main mold, so that the terminal portion 19, the stress cone 23, and the insulating layer 3 are integrally formed.

  In addition, the dimension of the space part for inserting the self-supporting resin pipe 25 may basically be a dimension that allows the self-supporting resin pipe 25 to be inserted and bonded. In addition to the method of adhering the self-supporting resin tube 25, the self-supporting resin tube 25, the terminal portion 19, and the stress can be obtained by setting the self-supporting resin tube 25 together with the terminal portion 19 and the stress cone 23 in the above-described main mold. The cone 23 and the insulating layer 3 may be integrally formed.

  In order to increase the surface pressure of the cable insertion hole 9 of the insulating layer 3 and the inner peripheral surface of the stress cone 23 with respect to the cable insulator 13, the cable insertion hole is generally larger than the outer diameter of the cable insulator 13. This can be easily performed by reducing the inner diameters of the portion 9 and the stress cone 23. For example, the dimensional difference between the outer diameter of the cable insulator 13 and the inner diameters of the cable insertion hole 9 and the stress cone 23 is preferably about 0.5 mm in diameter. Thereby, the cable insulator 13 portion of the cable 7 can be easily inserted into the cable insertion hole 9 and the stress cone 23 of the insulating layer 3.

  The terminal portion 19, the insulating layer 3, and the stress cone 23 are designed and manufactured according to the size of the cable 7 to be applied. However, the length and diameter of the self-supporting resin tube 25 can have a width applicable to several types of cables 7. In other words, the self-supporting resin tube 25 does not have to have a uniform design dimension according to the cable 7.

  Next, the operation and effect of the self-supporting dry type termination connecting portion 1 having the above configuration will be described.

  In order to attach the self-supporting dry-type termination connection portion 1 and the cable 7 of this embodiment, the cable sheath 17 is peeled to a certain size so that the outer conductor 15 and the cable insulator 13 are exposed. The end portion of the cable insulator 13 is removed to expose the inner conductor 11. A portion of the thin cable insulator 13 of the cable 7 is inserted into the cable insertion hole 9 of the self-supporting dry-type termination connection portion 1, and the inner conductor 11 at the tip is inserted into the conductor connection hole 21 of the terminal portion 19. . Thereafter, the inner conductor 11 is connected and connected to the terminal portion 19 by compressing the terminal portion 19 from the outside using, for example, a tightening tool.

  In this embodiment, the conductive member 29 is previously wound to be electrically connected to a part of the shielding layer 15 exposed as described above. An external conductive wire (not shown) is electrically connected to the conductive member 29 as a ground wire to a support fitting for fixing to a structural member such as an arm of an electric pole (not shown).

  Further, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, a space portion is generated between the shielding layer 15 exposed as described above and the inside of the self-supporting resin tube 25.

  As described above, since the self-supporting resin tube 25, the terminal portion 19, the stress cone 23, and the insulating layer 3 are integrated, only by inserting the terminal portion of the cable 7 into the self-supporting dry-type terminal connection portion 1, The connection work between the cable 7 and the self-supporting dry-type termination connection portion 1 is easily completed. As a result, the connection work time is significantly shortened compared to the conventional dry termination connection.

  In addition, since the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion 1 of this embodiment is made of a lightweight material, the work on the pillar can be easily performed, so that the connection work time can be shortened.

  In addition, as described above, in the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion 1 of Patent Literature 1, the diameter of the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion 1 and the cable is increased by winding a resin ribbon in a spiral shape into a cylindrical shape. Since it is necessary to expand the diameter of the rubber insulating layer 3 in advance using the support member, the cost is high. However, the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion 1 of this embodiment does not require a diameter expansion support member. , Low cost can be realized.

  The thin cable 7 has no rigidity and cannot stand by itself. However, in the self-supporting dry terminal connection portion 1 of this embodiment, a hard self-supporting resin having insulation and rigidity as a self-supporting structural member. A tube 25 is provided in the middle of the thickness of the insulating layer 3 made of rubber, for example, and a rigid self-supporting resin tube 25 is disposed around the cable 7 inserted into the cable insertion hole 9. Thereby, it can be made independent easily by being gripped and fixed from the outside of the insulating layer 3. Therefore, the cable 7 having a small size of the inner conductor 11 can be made independent.

  In addition, since the self-supporting dry-type termination connection portion 1 of this embodiment can be self-supporting in the poles of the outdoor high-voltage distribution line, it is not necessary to fix the lead-in cable (not shown) on the side connected to the terminal portion 19. Therefore, in addition to the effect that the arm metal 143 and the insulator 145 required in the conventional rubber dry terminal connection portion 127 of FIG.

  Further, since the rubber-made flexible insulating layer 3 is disposed so as to cover the cable insulator 13, the expansion and contraction of the cable insulator 13 due to heat generation upon energization is followed, and the electrical terminal It is possible to maintain the mechanical characteristics. Considering this point, the self-supporting resin tube 25 having electrical insulation and rigidity is embedded in the middle of the thickness of the integrally formed insulating layer 3, that is, inside the self-supporting resin tube 25. Since the outer portion is integrally provided with the insulating layer 3, the cable insulator 13 has a structure in which the entire portion of the cable insulator 13 has a stress relaxation effect. It will be covered with a certain insulating layer 3. As a result, the durability of the cable insulator 13, that is, the durability of the cable 7 is improved.
