  • Bonded sheath cable
    Patent number: 4439632
    Abstract: A cable which is capable of being made in a large pair size and yet which has excellent mechanical properties that maintain its integrity notwithstanding extremes in temperature during installation and shipping as well as during the rigors of installation includes a sheath system having a corrugated steel outer shield that is adhesively bonded to a plastic jacket. The corrugated steel shield which is formed to have a longitudinal overlapped seam that is preferably unsealed encloses an aluminum inner shield that in turn encloses a multiconductor core. Advantageously, the sheath system includes a plastic jacketing material which is capable of resisting biaxial stresses which are aggravated in a bonded sheath system. This results in jacket integrity about the longitudinal seam of the outer shield notwithstanding a notched cross-section and an unsupported bridged portion of the plastic jacket adjacent to the seam.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 14, 1982
    Date of Patent: March 27, 1984
    Assignees: Western Electric Co., Inc., Bell Telephone Laboratories, Inc.
    Inventors: Charles J. Aloisio, Jr., George S. Brockway, II, Alvin C. Levy, Randy G. Schneider, George M. Yanizeski
