Description

Flat Drop Cables {THE FLAT TYPE DROP CABLE}

The present invention relates to a flat drop cable including a pair of first tensioning body and one second tensioning body, and more particularly, to improve the bonding force of the first tensioning body and the sheath for preventing deformation of the optical fiber. It relates to a flat drop cable.

In general, an optical cable is composed of an optical fiber unit for transmitting an optical signal and a sheath for protecting the optical fiber unit.

Here, the sheath for protecting the optical fiber unit has a structure in which an anti-tension body such as steel wire or glass fiber reinforced plastic is inserted to withstand the tensile force applied in the process of laying the optical cable.

In addition, in the case of the drop cable for FTTH for connecting the optical cable to the premises via the telephone pole, the optical fiber unit and the support line part surrounding the support line with the sheath material are separated into a flat structure. It is.

Here, in order to implement the FTTH network, when a cable is connected to the house via a telephone pole, a cable is installed between the telephone pole and the telephone pole, and tension is generated in the cable by gravity, which causes stress to the optical fiber unit, thereby causing breakage. have.

Therefore, in the general flat drop cable, the first tensioning body 20 and the support line 40 of the support line part serve to protect the stress that the optical fiber unit 10 may receive from the tensile force generated.

However, when the flat drop cable is installed, as shown in FIG. 1, when the cable 100 stretches downward due to the load of the cable 100 itself, tension is generated in the cable, which is located under the optical fiber unit 10. The first tensioning body 20 is relatively longer than the support line 40 on the upper side.

Here, the tensile restoring force is generated in the lower first tensioning body 20 which is relatively increased, thereby affecting the bonding force between the sheath 30 and the first tensioning body 20.

Subsequently, when the tensile restoring force of the increased first tensioning body 20 is greater than the bonding force between the sheath 30 and the first tensioning body 20, the two materials are separated, so that the first tensioning body 20 is larger than the sheath 30. Will be shortened.

As a result, the detached first tensioning body 20 does not function properly as a tensioning body, and as time passes, the optical fiber unit 10 is stressed to increase optical signal loss due to breakage of the optical fiber unit 10. Cause.

Still another object of the present invention is to provide a flat drop cable in which a notch portion is formed in the sheath portion to facilitate exposure of the optical fiber when the cable is connected and connected.

The flat drop cable provided as a component as described above has a tensile restoring force between the first sheath portion 30 and the first tensioning body 20 due to the stretching of the first tensioning body 20 that may occur when the cable is installed. It provides a structure that does not affect the bonding force of the.

To explain this in more detail, the cable installed between the two poles is modeled with the equation of a suspension line (curved rope between them when both ends of a uniform rope are fixed at two positions of the same height) as shown in the graph of FIG. It is expressed as the formula below.

(H: horizontal tension of cable, w: weight of cable per unit length)

It is possible to design a cable that is equal to or greater than the tensile restoring force of the tensioning body 20.

Here, after the adhesive reinforcing member 22 is coated on the outer surface of the first tension member 20 to increase the bonding force between the first tension member 20 and the first sheath portion 30, the first sheath portion 30 may be combined.
