Cable and method for manufacturing the same
View Patent ↗A cable includes: a conductor including strands densely arranged, the strands including out most strands located at outermost parts of the conductor and inner side strand located on inner side of the outermost strands; and an insulation covering that covers the periphery of the conductor. The insulation covering is in surface contact with the outermost strands, and is provided in a manner such that gaps are provided between the insulation covering and the inner side strands. In the method for manufacturing the cable, a fluid resin having a viscosity of greater than or equal to 323.6 Pa·sec at the point of extrusion is used, and the extrusion pressure of the resin is adjusted in a manner such that the insulation covering is in surface contact with the outermost strands and such that gaps are provided between the insulation covering and the inner side strands.
1. A cable, comprising:
a conductor comprising a plurality of strands densely arranged, the strands comprising out most strands located at outermost parts of the conductor and inner side strands located on inner side of the outermost strands; and
an insulation covering that covers a periphery of the conductor,
the insulation covering being in surface contact with the outermost strands, and being provided in a manner such that gaps are provided between the insulation covering and the inner side strands, the insulation covering formed such that an adhesive force of the insulation covering exceeds 10 N by adjusting a pressure that a fluid insulation resin material having a viscosity of approximately 323 Pa·sec and a range of the viscosity capable to provide the insulation covering being in surface contact with the outermost strands and being provided in a manner such that gaps are provided between the insulation covering and the inner side strands is extruded toward the periphery of the conductor.
2. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein the insulation covering is made from an insulation resin material having a longitudinal elastic modulus of greater than or equal to 1150 MPa.
3. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein the cable has an adhesive force strength greater than 0.2 N/mm.
4. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein the fluid insulation resin material is extruded at a temperature of 240° C.
5. A method for manufacturing a cable, comprising:
forming an insulation covering on a periphery of a conductor by extruding a molten insulation resin material on the periphery of the conductor, the conductor comprising a plurality of strands densely arranged, the strands comprising out most strands located at outermost parts of the conductor and inner side strand located on inner side of the outermost strands;
using, as the molten insulation resin material, a fluid resin material having a viscosity of approximately 323 Pa·sec and a range of the viscosity capable to provide the insulation covering being in surface contact with the outermost strands and being provided in a manner such that gaps are provided between the insulation covering and the inner side strands when being extruded; and
adjusting a pressure when the molten insulation resin material is extruded in a manner such that the insulation covering is in surface contact with the outermost strands and such that gaps are provided between the insulation covering and the inner side strands.
6. The method according to claim 5 further comprising:
producing an adhesive force of the insulation covering exceeding 0.2 N/mm by adjusting the pressure when the molten insulation resin material is extruded in the manner such that the insulation covering is in surface contact with the outermost strands and such that the gaps are provided between the insulation covering and the inner side strands.
7. A cable, comprising:
a conductor comprising a plurality of strands densely arranged, the strands comprising out most strands located at outermost parts of the conductor and inner side strands located on inner side of the outermost strands; and
an insulation covering that covers a periphery of the conductor,
the insulation covering being in surface contact with the outermost strands, and being provided in a manner such that gaps are provided between the insulation covering and the inner side strands, the insulation covering formed by adjusting a pressure that a fluid insulation resin material having a viscosity of greater than or equal to 323.6 Pa·sec and a range of the viscosity capable to provide the insulation covering being in surface contact with the outermost strands and being provided in a manner such that gaps are provided between the insulation covering and the inner side strands is extruded toward the periphery of the conductor,
wherein the fluid insulation resin material is extruded at a temperature of 240° C.
