Abstract

A gap-type overhead transmission line includes a steel core member; a conductor layer positioned to surround the steel core member and having at least one strand wire aggregated therein; and a coating layer interposed in a solid state between the steel core member and the conductor layer so as to surround the steel core member, the coating layer including a material that is sublimated after the conductor layer is stranded so as to form a predetermined gap between the steel core member and the conductor layer.

Claims (20)

1 . A gap-type overhead transmission line, comprising:

a steel core member;

a conductor layer positioned to surround the steel core member and having at least one strand wire aggregated therein; and

a coating layer interposed in a solid state between the steel core member and the conductor layer so as to surround the steel core member, the coating layer including a material that is sublimated after the conductor layer is stranded so as to form a predetermined gap between the steel core member and the conductor layer.

2 . The gap-type overhead transmission line according to claim 1 , wherein the coating layer has a thickness of 0.1 mm to 10 mm.

3 . The gap-type overhead transmission line according to claim 1 or 2 , wherein the coating layer includes naphthalene, dry ice or ice.

4 . The gap-type overhead transmission line according to claim 1 or 2 , wherein a loose rate of the steel core member and the conductor layer is in the range of 0.1 to 0.5%.

5 . A method for manufacturing a gap-type overhead transmission line, comprising:

(a) providing a steel core member;

(b) forming a coating layer of a predetermined thickness with a sublimate material so as to surround the steel core member;

(c) stranding a conductor layer having at least one strand wire aggregated therein around the coating layer; and

(d) forming a predetermined gap between the steel core member and the conductor layer by means of phase change of the coating layer.

6 . The method for manufacturing a gap-type overhead transmission line according to claim 5 ,

wherein the sublimate material includes naphthalene, dry ice or ice.

7 . The method for manufacturing a gap-type overhead transmission line according to claim 5 or 6 ,

wherein the coating layer has a thickness of 0.1 mm to 10 mm.

8 . The method for manufacturing a gap-type overhead transmission line according to claim 5 or 6 ,

wherein, in the step (c), a preformed strand wire is stranded.

9 . The method for manufacturing a gap-type overhead transmission line according to claim 5 or 6 ,

wherein, after the step (d), a loose rate of the steel core member and the conductor layer is in the range of 0.1 to 0.5%.
