Abstract:
An edge insulated electrical cable includes an electrical cable and an edge insulation structure applied to the electrical cable at the location. An apparatus for applying edge coating to a film is also disclosed.
Abstract:
A cable includes one or more conductor sets, one or more dielectric unitary blocks or reservoirs, first and second conductive shielding films disposed on opposite first and second sides of the conductor sets and the dielectric blocks or reservoirs, and an adhesive layer. The shielding films include cover portions and pinched portions arranged such that, in cross-section, the cover portions of the shielding films in combination substantially surround each conductor set and each unitary block or reservoir, and the pinched portions of the shielding films in combination form pinched portions of the cable on each side of the conductor set and on at least one side of the unitary block or the reservoir. The adhesive layer bonds the first shielding film to the second shielding film in the pinched portions of the cable.

Abstract:
A flat electrical cable is described. The cable includes a plurality of equally spaced substantially parallel electrical conductors lying in a same plane and extending along the length of the cable. Each conductor has a same diameter D. The cable further includes a common unitary electrically insulating layer encapsulating the plurality of conductors. The insulating layer includes a plurality of cover portions where each cover portion is concentric with a corresponding conductor and has a radial thickness t. t/D is in a range from about 0.50 to about 1.25.
Abstract:
A shielded cable includes adjacent first and second conductor sets, each conductor set includes a pair of insulated conductors. At least 90% of a periphery of each conductor set is encompassed by a shielding film. The cable also includes first and second non-conductive polymeric films disposed on opposite sides of the cable. The polymeric films include cover portions and pinched portions. In transverse cross section, the cover portions of the polymeric films in combination surround the conductor sets, and the pinched portions of the polymeric films in combination form pinched portions of the cable on each side of the cable. When the cable is laid flat, a center-to-center spacing of the pair of insulated conductors for the first conductor set is σ1 and a center-to-center spacing of the first and second conductor sets is Σ. Σ/σ1 is less than 4.
Abstract:
An electrical cable includes a conductor extending lengthwise along the cable, and a reservoir extending lengthwise along the cable at a first lateral location in the cable. The reservoir contains a dielectric material that is adapted to be transferred to a different second lateral location in the cable.
Abstract:
A shielded electrical ribbon cable includes adjacent first and second longitudinal conductor sets where each conductor set includes two or more insulated conductors. The first conductor set also includes a ground conductor that generally lies in the plane of the insulated conductors of the first conductor set. At least 90% of the periphery of each conductor set is encompassed by a shielding film. First and second non-conductive polymeric films are disposed on opposite sides of the cable and form cover portions substantially surrounding each conductor set, and pinched portions on each side of each conductor set. When the cable is laid flat, the distance between the center of the ground conductor of the first conductor set and the center of the nearest insulated conductor of the second conductor set is σ1, the center-to-center spacing of the insulated conductors of the second conductor set is σ2, and σ1/σ2 is greater than 0.7.
