Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A cable is composed of a cable core including one or more electric wires, a braided shield covering a periphery of the cable core and including braided metal wires, a sheath covering a periphery of the braided shield, and a cushion layer provided between the cable core and the braided shield. The cushion layer is composed of a braid including braided linear shape fiber yarns.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A cable, comprising: a cable core including one or more electric wires; a braided shield covering a periphery of the cable core and including braided metal wires; a sheath covering a periphery of the braided shield; and a cushion layer provided between the cable core and the braided shield, the cushion layer comprising a braid including braided linear shape fiber yarns, wherein a braid density of the cushion layer provided to be in contact with the braided shield is higher than a braid density of the braided shield. 2. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein the cable core comprises a plurality of the electric wires stranded together. 3. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein the fiber yarns constituting the cushion layer are composed of rayon yarns. 4. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein an angle formed by the fiber yarns of the cushion layer with respect to a longitudinal direction of the cable is smaller than an angle formed by the metal wires of the braided shield with respect to the longitudinal direction of the cable. 5. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein the cushion layer comprises the braid density of not lower than 85 percent. 6. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein the braided shield comprises the braid density of not lower than 85 percent, and wherein the cushion layer comprises the braid density of not lower than 90 percent. 7. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein the braided shield comprises the braid density of not lower than 85 percent. 8. The cable according to claim 1 , wherein the cushion layer comprises the braid density of not lower than 90 percent. 9. A cable, comprising: a cable core including one or more electric wires; a braided shield covering a periphery of the cable core and including braided metal wires; a sheath covering a periphery of the braided shield; and a cushion layer provided between the cable core and the braided shield, the cushion layer comprising a braid including braided linear shape fiber yarns, wherein a braid density of the cushion layer is higher than a braid density of the braided shield. 10. The cable according to claim 9 , wherein the cushion layer comprises the braid density of not lower than 85 percent. 11. The cable according to claim 9 , wherein the cushion layer comprises the braid density of not lower than 90 percent. 12. The cable according to claim 9 , wherein the braided shield comprises the braid density of not lower than 85 percent. 13. The cable according to claim 9 , wherein the braided shield comprises the braid density of not lower than 85 percent, and wherein the cushion layer comprises the braid density of not lower than 90 percent. 14. The cable according to claim 9 , wherein the cable core comprises a plurality of the electric wires stranded together. 15. The cable according to claim 9 , wherein the fiber yarns constituting the cushion layer are composed of rayon yarns. 16. The cable according to claim 9 , wherein an angle formed by the fiber yarns of the cushion layer with respect to a longitudinal direction of the cable is smaller than an angle formed by the metal wires of the braided shield with respect to the longitudinal direction of the cable.
