Abstract: To improve the mechanical strength of a rubber hose cable, support elements are arranged between the conductors and the support elements are connected to a high tensile strength wrapping applied with a lay opposite the twisted conductors with adhesion or by cementing.

Abstract: In order to improve the mechanical strength of power and control cables which are subjected to high mechanical stresses in operation, the conductors are elastically fixed to a structural element of the cable. To this end, the conductor insulation is joined in a material-bonded manner to the structural element which consists of a soft elastomer. The conductors are provided, for instance, with a thin cover layer of polyethylene which can be cross-linked peroxidically and is cross-linked after the inner jacket is applied, and in the process makes a material-bonded connection to the inner jacket which consists of a vulcanizable mixture of ethylene-propylene rubber and natural rubber.
