Electric cable and winding device for such a cable
The invention relates to a winding device ( 8 ) for an electric cable ( 4, 4 a, 4 b ) including a cylindrical hub ( 62 ), perforated ( 622 ) at its surface and open ( 624 ) at at least one of its ends, the cable having at least one conductor ( 41, 42, 43, 44 ) and a sheath ( 45, 45 a, 45 b ) with an outer surface having an irregular cross-section.
1. A winding device for an electric cable comprising a cylindrical hub, perforated at its surface and open at at least one of its ends, the cable having at least one conductor and a sheath with an outer surface having an irregular cross-section,
wherein portions protruding from the outer surface of the sheath define air circulation spaces between turns of the cable when the latter is wound.
2. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a fan blowing air in a direction approximately coaxial to the hub.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the air circulation spaces are, along the entire length of the wound cable, axial and radial.
4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the sheath comprises, at regular intervals, rings protruding from the outer surface.
5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the sheath comprises a portion, protruding from its outer surface, defining a portion having non-contiguous turns coaxial to the cable.
6. The device of claim 1 , comprising at one of its ends a plug integrating at least one temperature sensor.
7. The device of claim 1 , comprising two ground connection conductors isolated from each other.
8. The device of claim 1 , further comprising an element for rotating the hub.
9. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a casing comprising at least one opening at its lower surface.
10. A system for charging at least one battery for a motor vehicle, comprising the device of claim 1 .
