in fig1 there is illustrated a reinforced utility cable 10 for high voltage electric current and includes a multiplicity of individual electrical conductors 12 collected into a bundle formation as illustrated and surrounded by a blended layer 14 of carbon and grease . the layer 14 is used to prevent adhesion between the conductors 12 when enveloped in a catalyzed polymer . a reinforcement layer 16 consists of a plurality of continuous strands of filament and a catalyzed polymer . carbon fibers ( not shown ) and conductors 18 are contained in an overlying layer of catalyzed polymer 20 . an outer sheathing 22 consists of a catalyzed polymer is applied for imparting high quality electrical insulation . it is to be understood that it is within the scope of the present invention to provide an electrical utility cable without the outer sheathing 22 and the layer of catalyzed polymer 20 including the carbon fibers and conductors therein . the method for forming the cable shown in fig1 is illustrated in the flow diagram of fig2 and includes forming a bundle of filaments disbursed about the outer periphery of electrical conductors coated with grease containing micronized carbon . a catalyzed polymer is then added to the bundle and then the bundle and polymer are drawn through a thermally controlled protrusion die to control the catalyzing process and establish the cross sectional shape of the utility cable . the cable is then flexed in reversing directions while the catalyzing process is completed to avoid the formation of set shape due to the coiled configuration on a storage reel . with or without the coiling of the cable , the processing of the cable is continued by again applying a catalyzed polymer containing carbon fibers to the outer surface of the cable while conductors are distributed about the cable surface . a second thermally controlled protrusion die is used to control the catalyzing process and establish the new cross sectional shape for the utility cable . the cable is again flexed in reversing directions while the catalyzing process is completed to avoid the formation of set shape when coiled . and again with or without the coiling of the cable , the processing is continued by applying only catalyzed polymer to the outer surface of the cable and using a third thermally controlled protrusion die to control the catalyzing process and establish the final cross sectional shape for the utility cable . the cable is again flexed in reversing directions while the catalyzing process is completed to avoid the formation of set shape and then the utility cable is coiled for shipment . referring to fig3 there is illustrated the preferred embodiment of apparatus for forming a continuous pultruded utility cable according to the present invention . multiple strands of continuous fibers 30 , such as kevlar , for example , are drawn from storage creels 32 , and are distributed about the bundle of electrical conductors 12 which are coated with the mixture of carbon and grease and pulled from a storage reel 34 . the fibers 30 have been previously mechanically or chemically abraded in order to enhance adherence of the fiber with a polymer . the fibers 30 are disbursed about the bundle of conductors 12 by passage through apertures in a comb 36 arranged to organize the fibers about the periphery . the conductors 12 and the abraded fibers 30 emerging from the comb pass into a protrusion die 38 where the entrance portion contains orifices for the introduction of a polymer and a catalyst . according to the embodiment of fig3 there is a resin preferably cyclopentadiene and a catalyst such as ruthenium dichloride . the reaction becomes exothermic due to ring open metathesis polymerization . the reaction is relative slow and therefore a relatively long protrusion die is provided to allow the polymer to gel before emerging from the die . the details of the construction of the protrusion die are illustrated in fig4 and include a tubular die 40 having an internal passageway resembling the shape of a venturi . at the entrance portion of the die there are arranged flow control orifices 42 lying within a plane and communicating with side - by - side chambers 44 and 46 . these chambers are formed by partition walls 44 extending between side and end walls 48 and 50 , respectively . the chambers 44 and 46 communicate with manifolds 52 and 54 respectively by supply pipes . manifold 52 supplies cyclopentadiene and manifold 54 supplies ruthenium dichloride . the chemical reaction being exothermic commence at a temperature in the range of 80 ° to 120 ° f . quickly reaching a temperature of about 360 ° f . depending on the ratio of the catalyst to the polymer . the temperature is controlled incrementally along the length of the die by arranging a manifold tube 56 exteriorly along the die with internal partitioning walls 58 subdividing the cavity into manifold chambers 60 - 70 . the manifold chambers 60 - 70 are connected by supply pipes extending to thermostatic mixing valves 60 a - 70 a , respectively , having entrance ports coupled to supplies of chilled water and hot water . the manifold chambers 60 - 70 are each connected to drain lines 60 b - 70 b , respectively . the thermostatic mixing valves induce a temperature gradient commencing at a maximum temperature of about 360 ° f . at the die wall joined with manifold chamber 60 by the introduction of relatively hot water as compared with the water introduced to successive manifold chambers . the molded utility cable 72 emerging from the die 38 is passed between spaced apart lopper rolls 74 in a zigzag fashion to repeatedly flex the cable and avoid the formation of a memory or set that might occur when the cable is stored in coiled form . the looper rolls 74 are driven and additionally served functions of pullers to advance the cable from the protrusion die . the cable is then either coiled on a reel 76 without further processing or past on for further processing with or without coiling . continued processing is accomplished in second and third protrusion dies embodying the same construction as shown in fig4 and 5 but with the die surface having the same venturing shape enlarged to process the additional layers of polymer . the continued processing is by the application of a catalyzed polymer , conductors and filaments as explained hereinbefore and illustrated in fig2 . a second embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in fig6 and differs from the first embodiment by the provision of apparatus for the use of a thermosetting resin , which requires the addition of heat for initiating the catalytic reaction to harden the resin . multiple strands of abraded continuous fibers 30 , such as kevlar , for example , are drawn from the storage creels 32 , and are distributed about the bundle of the electrical conductors 12 which are coated with the mixture of carbon and grease and pulled from the storage reel 34 . the fibers 30 and the bundle of conductors are disbursed by a comb 80 for individual submersion in a vessel 82 containing a catalyzed polymer preferably a heat setting epoxy . the fibers 30 are then disbursed about the bundle of conductors 12 by passage through the apertures in a comb 36 . the conductors 12 and the abraded fibers 30 emerging from the comb pass into a protrusion die 38 a which is the same as protrusion die 38 with exception that the entrance portion does not contain orifices for the introduction of a polymer and a catalyst . the endothermic reaction in the die 38 a is accomplished by the heat supplied by the hot water controlled by the thermostatic mixing valves 60 a - 70 a to allow the polymer to gel before emerging from the die . the molded utility cable 82 emerging from the die 38 a extends through spaced apart pullers 86 and 88 used to pull the molded utility cable through the die 38 a and then passed between spaced apart lopper rolls 74 in a zigzag fashion to repeatedly flex the cable and avoid the formation of a memory or set that might occur when the cable is stored in coiled form . as in the first embodiment , the cable is then either coiled on a reel 76 or continuously processed by the application of a catalyzed polymer , conductors and filaments as explained hereinbefore and 1 . fig7 and 8 illustrates a third embodiment of reinforced utility cable which features the use of light guide optical cables 102 feed from storage reels 104 to a tank 106 provided with a roller 108 to immerse the cable in a bath of grease or dry lubricants in a vessel and provide an adhered coating of lubricant on the cable . examples of such lubricants are silicon and graphite . the stands of the optical cables 102 are collected into bundle formations with each bundle typical containing 12 optical cables and the bundle introduced into one of a plurality of a discrete die 109 connected to a supply of moldable plastic material 110 , such as a polyvinyl resin or compound ( preferably polyvinyl chloride ) and produces a continuous discrete buffer tube 112 . the discrete buffer tubes 112 are then collected into a bundle configuration after passage through a second bath of grease or dry lubricant in a tank 114 beneath an immersion roller 116 and thence comb 118 to arrange the buffer tubes 112 into the bundle configuration as shown in fig7 . the configuration of the bundle of buffer tubes is preferably symmetrical about the longitudinal axis of the bundle and some of the buffer tubes may be empty but included to symmetrical disperse the cables 102 about a geometrical center of gravity . unlike the first and second embodiments , the third embodiment provides that a ribbon of reinforcement material such as kevlar or similar reinforcement tape is combined with the bundle of buffer tubes to provide reinforcement . according to the preferred embodiment of fig7 and 8 , there is delivered two ribbons 120 and 122 from spools 124 and 126 respectively to an inner and outer ribbon shaping assemblies 128 and 130 having a “ c ” shaped configuration produced by a corresponding arrangement of guide rollers 132 and 134 respectively . the arraignment of guide rollers 132 is inverted with respect to the arraignment of guide rollers 134 . the guide rollers 132 and 134 alter the physical shape of the ribbons 120 and 122 so that an inner ribbon 128 envelopes about 70 % of the inner periphery of the bundle and thereafter an outer ribbon 130 envelopes about 70 % the outer periphery of bundle but applied at a side opposite to the side of the bundle where the inner ribbon 128 was applied . thereafter , a reinforcement layer 16 a is added to the ribbon incased bundle by the introduction of a plurality of continuous strands of filament which are imbedded in a catalyzed polymer introduced in the entrance area to the protrusion die 38 . the composition the resin and the filter filaments are added as a layer 16 a in substantially the same manner as provided by the continuous strands of filaments in the reinforcement layer 16 as shown and described in regard to fig1 . the layer 16 a is added to mechanical strength . the bundle assembly is then advance through the protrusion die 38 for the temperature control during curing of the catalyzed polymer and the repeated flexing of the cable after delivery from the die as shown in fig3 and 6 and described hereinbefore . this optical fiber cable can be used for direct burial or suspended in air . however the cable may become the central core around which aluminum conductors are wrapped form optical power ground wire providing optical fiber for communications , lightning protection for high voltage transmission lines , and fault current return path for circuit breaker coordination . the optical fiber cable will also serve as the structural support for the aluminum conductors . the ribbons 120 and 122 can also be spiral wrapped around the bundle of buffer tubes if desired . spiral wrapping is an easier production process , but requires more ribbon . the light guide optical fibers are contained in a loose configuration in the buffer tubes . the valued advantage of this embodiment of invention is the isolation of the optical fibers from all forces on the composite formed by the reinforcement layer 16 a by the suspension in grease , powder , or similar friction reducing substance . additionally , the placement of the optical fiber inside a hollow tube ( which may take the form of a soda straw ) allows the fibers to move freely inside the tube . during installation all pulling forces are applied only to the reinforcement layers 16 a whereby the optical fibers are isolated from the pulling force which eliminates the most common cause of optical fiber failure , that is , excessive pulling stress during installation . an additional feature of this embodiment of the invention is the ability of the cable to conform to shorter bending radii due to the additional cushion provided by the grease suspension . while the present invention has been described in connection with the preferred embodiments of the various figures , it is to be understood that other similar embodiments may be used or modifications and additions may be made to the described embodiments for performing the same function of the present invention without deviating there from . therefore , the present invention should not be limited to any single embodiment , but rather construed in breadth and scope in accordance with the recitation of the appended claims .
