This invention relates to insulated conductors for communication cables, and more especially to conductors insulated with insulating paper and a substance such as resin or rubber, and also the method of manufacturing the same.
One object of this invention is to obtain insulation for conductors which have a large mechanical strength and moisture-proof property, and make them suitable for use as communication cables.
Another object of this invention is to provide a method by which such insulated conductors for communication cables can easily be made.
The attached drawings show certain embodiments of the invention, in which Fig. I is a sectional view of a single conductor sealed between two paper tapes impregnated with a thermoplastic substance.

Fig. IX is a view in elevation showing the manner of winding an insulating tape about a conductor.
The insulated conductors for communication cables manufactured heretofore are generally insulated with paper or pulp. However, paper and pulp have a drawback that they are absorbent of moisture.
In recent years, insulation coating of a substance such as resin, for example polyethylene, is practised in order to eliminate the above-mentioned defects of paper or pulp insulation.
However, this method is not yet satisfactory, because, although polyethylene and other resins are excellent in their moisture-proof property, they have poor mechanical strength and are susceptible to external damage when used as a comparatively thin layer of insulation (for instance, 0.2 mm. or less).
This invention eliminates these defects and the manufacturing method thereof is as easy as, or easier than, the hitherto used method.
The insulated conductor of this invention consists of a conductor and an insulation covering applied on the ice - conductor, the said covering cons1sting of insulating paper and a substance such as resin or rubber.
Hereunder, certain examples are given with reference to which we shall explain this invention in detail.
First-An insulated conductor, on which an insulation covering is applied by covering longitudinally the upper and the lower sides of the conductor with tapes of insulating paper and a substance such as resin or rubber and sealing the said tapes together at the left and the right sides of the conductor by heat and pressure.
Insulated conductor:
Example la.A conductor on which is applied an insulation covering of tapes which are made by impregnating insulating paper with a substance such as resin or rubber:
Figure I shows the cross section of this insulated conductor, in which 1 is the conductor, 2 the tapes which cover longitudinally the upper and the lower sides of the conductor 1 and are sealed together at the left and the right sides of the conductor 1 by heat and pressure,
forming an insulating covering, and 3 the gap between possible gap within the insulation layer of the conductors for communication cables. so that the electrostatic capacity of the insulated conductor can be made small. For this purpose, it is most effective to keep this gap right over the conductor where the intensity of electric field is large.
The above insulated conductor is most suitable for an insulated conductor for communication cables. This is because the insulating paper maintains the mechanical strength and a substance such as resin or rubber gives moistureproof property. The above insulated conductor is cheaper than an insulated conductor covered with tape solely of resin, such as polyethylene. Furthermore, the covering method of manufacture of the above insulated conductor, which will be explained further, is not difficult at all, but is easier than the manufacturing method of and insulated conductor covered with tapes solely of resin, such as polyethylene.
Insulated conductor:
Example 1b.An insulated conductor with insulation covering of tapes made of insulating paper provided with a coating film of a thermoplastic substance, such as resin or rubber:
Figure II shows the cross section of this insulated conductor, in which 1 is the conductor, 2 the tapes which cover longitudinally the upper and the lower sides of the conductor 1 and are sealed together at the left and the right sides of the conductor 1 by heat and pressure, forming an insulating covering, and 3 the gap between the covering made of the tapes 2 and the conductor 1. The said tapes 2 are made 'by spreading or pasting the coating film of a thermoplastic substance such as polyethylene, vinylidene chloride, etc. 5 on the inner side of the insulating paper 4 facing the conductor.
As in the case of the insulated conductor illustrated in Figure 1, the mechanical strength is maintained by the insulating paper and the moisture-proof property is given by a substance such as resin.
The above insulated conductor is also manufactured by the covering method to be explainedfurther. When the tapes are passed through the heating rollers for seal, they Example Ian-An insulated conductor with insulation covering of'tapes made of insulating paper provided with a'coating film of thermoplastic substance such" as resin" or rubber on one side and a coating film of thermoplastic resin or rubber orthenno-hardening" re'sin" or rubber on the other side:
' Figure III showsthecross section of this insulated conductor, in which 1 isthe conductor, 2 the tapes which covers longitudinally the upper andtlrelower'sifl'e's'of' the conductor 1* and are sealed togetherat the left and? the right sides of the conductor'l byheat andpressure, forming'an insulating "covering, and" 3the' gap between the'covering made of the tapes 2 and the conductor 1. The said tapes 2 are made by-spreading or pasting a coating of thermoplastic substance, such as'polyethylene, vinylidene chloride, etc. 5 on the inner side of the insulating paper ffacing the' conductor 1; and a coating of thermoplastic resin or rubber or therrno-hardening resin or rubber such as polyethylene, melamine, etc. 6 on the other side, namely the outer side.
As in the. case of the insulated conductors illustrated in Figures I and II, the mechanical strength is maintained by the insulating paper. and the moisture-proof property is given by a substance such as resin or rubber.
The above insulated conductor is also manufactured by the covering method, which will be explained further. Such method is not difiicul-t at all, but is easier than the manufacturing method of an insulated conductor covered with tapes of resin, such as polyethylene. Furthermore, if a coating film of thermo hardening resin or rubber is provided'on the outer sides of the tapes, they will never stick to the rollers when they are passed through the heating rollers for seal. Consequently, no difliculty is experienced in the regulation of the heating temperature of the rollers and' the passing speed of the tapes.
Second-An insulated conductor,v on which an insulation-covering is applied by wrapping the conductor with tapes of insulating paper and a substance such as resin or rubber and sealing the said tapes.
Figure IV shows the cross section of-this insulated conductor, in which 1'is the conductor and 2 the tapes ofinsulatingpaper and substance such as resin or rubber. The said tapes 2 wrap the conductor and are heated and sealed to form the covering. The tapes may be insulating paper impregnated with a substance such asresin or rubber, or insulating paper which has. onone or. both of its sides a coating of thermoplastic resin or rubber spread or. pasted thereon, or insulating paper which has a coating of. thermoplastic resin or rubber on the side facing. the conductor and a coating of thermo-hardeningresinor rubber on the other side, such substance being spread or pasted. oneach side.
As in the case of the insulated conductor in Example 1, the mecharncal strength. is maintained by the insulating paper and the moisture-proof property isgiven by a'substance such as resin orrubber. The aboveinsulated'conductor is manufactured, as explained further, by wrapping the conductor with tapes which are then passed-through a heating and molding device, such as-diesordie-rollers; to'eifect the seal. The manufacturing method is very simple, however, theair gaps 3 are omitted.
The above-explained tapes for the conductor can be made by combining the method of impregnating the insulating paper with a substance such asresin orrubber andthe method of spreading-or pasting such substance on the insulating paper.
In the cable in which thesinsulatedconductor ofthis" invention, as illustrated and explainediabove; is-used; i igpossible to use, as material for protective sheath, resin or rubber such as polyvinyl chloride" or polyethylene.
Also, this invention has an advantage over that of an ordinary lead-sheath .as it can be used without the fear of integration, which is caused by softening and welding of the lead insulation covering due to heat, for example when such :lead sheath is jointed together. 7
Third-Example of the manufacturing method of the insulated conductor of' Example 1.
Method of manufacturing insulated conductors for use in communication cables by longitudinally cover ing the upper and-the lower sides of theconductors" with tapes of insulating paper and" resin or rubber which are sealed together by heating and pressing at the right and the left sides of the conductor and cut either at the same time or thereafterin' order to separate the insulated conductors.
This method is illustrated in Figures V-VIH. Figure V is the side view of the apparatus for carrying out this method Figure V1 is the front View at the VIP-VI section of Figure V; namely, a front viewof conductors moving on in parallelwhos'e upper and lower sides are longitudinally covered with tapes of insulating paper and To the upper and the lower sides of a number ofconductors l'which are moving on in parallel, tapes of insulating paper and resin or rubber 2 are applied-as shown in Figure VI. Then, the tapes 2 are heat-sealed;
by pressing the parts at the right" and the left sides of each conductor 1, with grooved rollers- 7 as sho wn: in Figure VII. Thereafter, their central part is pressed and cut with a blade 8 and a roller 9 as shown in Figure;
VIII; Then, we can obtain the desired insulated' conductor as that shown in Figure I, II or III. The temperature for sealing is, for instance, approximately C. for tapes of insulating paper and polyethylene and approximately C. for tapes of insulating paper and polyvinylchloride. I v
In the abovementioned process, it is also all right to seal together tapes with apair of high frequencyrollers instead of the heating rollers. carry out the press cutting at the same time as the heatsealing.
This method has an advantage that thedesired: insulated conductors can be manufactured in a largequarF tity very easily.
FourthExample of the manufacturing method ofl'the insulated-conductor of Fig. IV.
Method of manufacturing; insulated conductor'for use: in communication cables by wrappingthe conductor with tapes of insulating paper and substance suchas resinior' rubber, and then passing the same through a heating and moldingdevice for seal;
Figure IX illustrates this method, in which 1 the conductor, 2 the tapes of insulating paper and-resin or rubber, 10 the pad of tapes, 11 the fiyeronwhich: the
pad 10is placed, 12 the polisher and 13 the heated moldthe covering is formed and insulated conductor is} ob? .tained. i
In the above example. the heatingiand molding idevice andthepolish'eriareseparately provided; 'Howevenithese Figure VIII is the front view at the VIII VII I It is also all right to two may be made as one. Also, the heating and molding device may be made to revolve around the conductor so as to facilitate the seal. The tapes may be heated before wrapping the conductor.
By using the above method, the insulated conductor can be manufactured in a very easy way.
As explained with reference to the insulated conductor of Fig. IV, various kinds of tapes may be used. In the case of tapes which have a coating of thermo hardening resin or rubber on the sides opposite to those facing the conductor, there is no fear that they stick to the molding device when seal is effected by a heating and molding device.
We have explained, certain examples of the insulated conductor for communication cables of this invention and the method of manufacturing the same. However, it must be noted that such examples are given without limiting the invention or claims thereto.
