Definitions

  • ABSTRACT An electric conductor wire of aluminum or aluminum alloy with a diameter less than 5 mm., is covered with a layer containing nickel with a thickness in the range of from 0.1 to 10 11.. In order to improve the adhesiveness of the layer, the layer consists of an alloy of nickel and zinc with a proportion of zinc up to 75 percent.
  • HANS 0L 0F HANSSON A 1- TOENE rs ELECTRIC CONDUCTOR WIRE This invention relates to an electric wire conductor, mainly comprising aluminum, with a diameter less than 5 mm.
  • the applied layer consists of an alloy of nickel and zinc with a proportion of zinc in the range of from 25 percent to 75 percent.
  • good results are obtained when the alloy consists of zinc in the range of from 40 percent to 60 percent and it is particularly suitable to have an admixture of zinc in the range of from 45 percent to 55 percent.
  • nickel and zinc are here meant the respective metals of commercial grade, that is, impurities may be present to some extent.
  • the layer is applied by means of an electrochemical method known per se for example the fluoborate method.
  • the aluminum conductor in this manner provided with a layer according to the invention can be readily soldered with usual tin solder and resin fluxing material.
  • the manufacture may be started with a wire of substantially the desired final diameter, which is to be covered with a layer according to the invention, or the manufacture may be started with a thicker diameter, which is covered with a layer according to the invention and then is drawn to a desired thinner diameter.
  • the invention also includes twisted, multiwire cores where each single wire line is provided with a layer according to the invention.
  • the layer hereby reduces the mutual resistance between the individual wires which is of great importance in order to obtain good contact at the connection of a wire at a connection point.
  • wire armoring of electrical cables it can, for example for submarine cable, be suitable to use aluminum wires covered with a layer according to the invention. Such a wire armoring becomes light and resistant to corrosion.
  • a conductor with a layer according to the invention has qualities similar to those of a copper conductor and can be insulated with all usual insulating means, for example paper, plastics or oil.
  • FIG. 1 is a cross section of an electric wire conductor according to the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a cross section of a cable formed by wire conductors according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 shows an electric wire conductor 1 having a solid core wire 2 made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy and sheathed by a layer 3 of nickel or any of the alloys as set forth in the specification.
  • the maximal diameter of the core is less than 5 mm. and the thickness of the layer 3 is between 0.1 to lOu.
  • the cable of FIG. 2 is formed by twisting a plurality of wire conductors l as described in connection with FIG. 1.
  • the wires are twisted so that they substantially contact each other.
  • the aforedescribed surface layer 3 of the wire conductors reduces the resistance between the individual wires in contact with each other. As a result, high-quality connections between the cable and a connecting point such as a connector can be conveniently and safely made.
  • An electric wire conductor consisting a one-piece core wire of aluminum or aluminum alloy having a diameter of less than 5 mm., and an outer layer containing nickel encompassing said core wire bonded thereto, said outer layer having a thickness of O. l to 10 microns.
  • An electric cable comprising a plurality of twisted wire conductors, each of said wire conductors comprising a onepiece core wore of aluminum or aluminum alloy having a diameter of less than 5 mm., and an outer layer containing nickel encompassing said core wire bonded thereto, said outer layer having a thickness of 0.1 to 5 microns.
