[Prior Art] Since the heat generated in the optical cable for transmitting optical energy or the power cable causes a dangerous state such as a fire when the cable is broken, the conventional cable is used to detect the heat in the cable. A method of inserting a thermocouple into the main body has been considered.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] When a thermocouple is inserted into a cable, the temperature of the thermocouple can be detected only near the sensor portion. Therefore, in order to detect the temperature in the longitudinal direction of the cable, a large number of thermocouples and leads are used. Needed a line. However, since the thermocouples and the lead wires have large outer diameters, it is difficult to accommodate them in the cable, and this is remarkable especially in the case of a large number of thermocouples and lead wires. Further, since the thermocouples have to be inserted into the cable at regular intervals in the longitudinal direction, it is difficult to manufacture the cable.

The present invention has been made in view of such points,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a spacer type optical fiber cable having a detection line that can be accommodated in a small space inside the cable and that can detect an abnormal temperature in the longitudinal direction of the cable.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The above object is to provide a plurality of grooves on the outer periphery of a spacer, at least one of the grooves is a hollow groove, and at least one of the other grooves accommodates an optical fiber. In a spacer type optical fiber cable in which a holding tape and a sheath are sequentially provided on the outer side of the spacer, an abnormal temperature detection line in which a disc type supporting member is intermittently provided directly on the outer periphery of a low melting point alloy wire is provided in the spacer. This is achieved by housing in the groove.

Also, the low melting point alloy wire is not limited to a single wire, but multiple low melting point alloy wires with different melting point temperatures (for example, 80 ° C, 100 ° C, 1
It is possible to detect how many times the outside air temperature has risen by accommodating it (20 ℃, etc.).

Note that a warning may be issued at the time of breakage by providing a relay circuit or the like at the cable end of the low melting point alloy wire.

[Operation] Since the low melting point alloy wire is a filament, the temperature can be uniformly detected in the longitudinal direction of the cable, and it is accommodated in the cable without being bulky.

The low melting point alloy wire 1 is housed in the groove of the spacer 3 which houses the optical fiber 2. This low melting point alloy wire 1 has an outer diameter of 1 mm
Is. When the low melting point alloy wire 1 reaches a predetermined temperature (for example, 80 ° C.) due to a temperature rise of outside air or the like, it melts and breaks in the spacer groove. However, in the case where the entire outer periphery of the low melting point alloy wire 1 is covered with plastic, it is considered that even if the low melting point alloy wire 1 is melted, it will not be broken. So low melting point alloy wire 1
A disc-shaped support member 15 was intermittently provided directly on the outer periphery of the. This makes it possible to insert the spacer into the groove of the spacer and to ensure the breakage of the low melting point alloy wire.

[Advantages of the Invention] Since the abnormal temperature detection wire in which the disc type supporting member is intermittently provided directly on the outer periphery of the low melting point alloy wire is inserted into the groove of the spacer, the temperature can be detected without increasing the outer diameter of the cable. It will be possible.
