  • Patent number: 9424962
    Abstract: A flexible electrical cable that is resistant to external chemical agents includes a sheathing assembly and a core assembly. From interior to exterior, the core assembly has at least two conductors and a two-part filler material with an inner portion and an outer portion. The inner portion has discrete, non-continuous elements, and the outer portion is a solid, continuous material surrounding the inner portion and at least partially embedding the at least two conductors. The outer portion has a circular cross-section. The sheathing assembly has a foamed polymeric material formed around and shaped by the outer portion of the filler material, a metal tape positioned around and shaped by the foamed polymeric material, a polymeric coating surrounding the metal tape, and an outer sheath.

  • Patent number: 7204896
    Abstract: An electrical cable includes a conductor, an outer sheath, and a self-repairing material layer between the conductor and outer sheath. The self-repairing material layer is distributed around the conductor in a discontinuous manner. An anchor portion is formed between the conductor and the outer sheath.

  • Publication number: 20030051898
    Abstract: An electrical cable (1) comprises a conductor (2), a possible inner coating layer (7) put directly into contact with the conductor (2), a self-repairing material layer (4) directly in contact with the inner coating layer (7), and an outer coating sheath (3) externally in engagement with the self-repairing material layer (4). Formed between the outer coating sheath (3) and the conductor (2) are anchoring portions (6) for the purpose of avoiding relative movements between the outer coating sheath (3) and the conductor (2).
