The present disclosure relates to a magnetic shielding tape for a cable and a method for manufacturing thereof, and more particularly, to a magnetic shielding tape, which is capable of shielding a high-to-low frequency of a signal transmitted through a cable in shielding of a magnetic field which flows in such a cable or is emitted therefrom, and a method for manufacturing the same.
As for a communication cable transmitting a signal to a computer, various communication devices, and the like, or a power cable transmitting electric power (hereinafter, the communication cable and the power cable are collectively called as a cable), a signal transmitted through such a cable may be affected by noise including an electromagnetic field which flows from an external electronic device. In addition, a signal itself, which is transmitted through a cable, may emit noise, including an electromagnetic field to the outside, and such emitted noise may cause an effect to an external electronic device. Particularly, as a frequency of a signal transmitted through a cable is higher, such a signal may be more affected by noise which flows from the outside and further it may emit more noise to the outside.
To shield such noise, a conventional method surrounds a cable with a conductive shield layer. However, when a frequency of a signal transmitted through a cable is high, noise emitted from an inside of the cable may not be effectively shielded with only such a conductive shield layer. This is because that noise, which should be shielded, includes a lot of harmonic components as a frequency of a signal is higher. Consequently, there is a need for technology which is capable of effectively shielding the inflow and emission of noise including an electromagnetic field even when a frequency of a signal transmitted through a cable is high.
There is another conventional method for shielding noise, in which a ferrite core for filtering noise is applied to an end part of a cable. However, in the another conventional method employing such a ferrite core for filtering noise, there are difficulties in application in that a ferrite core for filtering noise, which has impedance corresponding to a characteristic of a cable, should be selected and applied to the cable, and further the ferrite core itself has a thick thickness.
Meanwhile, among technologies for shielding noise such as the electromagnetic field as described above, there may be a method using a magnetic shielding material, which contains a nano-crystalline metal ribbon having high permeability.
However, when an alternating current (AC) magnetic field is applied to the nano-crystalline metal ribbon contained in the magnetic shielding material, an eddy current may be generated on a surface of the nano-crystalline metal ribbon. The generated eddy current may cause problems including generation of heat, and the like.
To reduce an effect due to such an eddy current, there is a method of flaking the nano-crystalline metal ribbon. Through the flaking, the nano-crystalline metal ribbon may be broken up and divided into a plurality of fine pieces. When the nano-crystalline metal ribbon is divided into the plurality of fine pieces, an effect resulting from an eddy current may be reduced. This is because magnitude of an eddy current is proportional to a surface area of a position at which the eddy current is generated, and, when the nano-crystalline metal ribbon is divided into the plurality of fine pieces, a surface area of each of the fine pieces, at which the eddy current is generated, is reduced in comparison with that of the nano-crystalline metal ribbon before the flaking is performed thereon. However, when the nano-crystalline metal ribbon is divided into the plurality of fine pieces through the flaking, a crack, that is, a gap provided each between the plurality of fine pieces is significantly less than a size of each of the plurality of fine pieces, and thus adjacent fine pieces among the plurality of fine pieces may flow to come into contact with each other. When the adjacent fine pieces come into contact with each other, the surface area of the position, at which the eddy current is generated, may be increased again. This may cause an increase of the effect resulting from the eddy current.
Further, as for a conventional magnetic shielding material containing a nano-crystalline metal ribbon on which the flaking is performed, there is difficulty in securing flexibility suitable for winding a cable and the like in the form of a roll.
Therefore, when a magnetic shielding material containing a nano-crystalline metal ribbon is applied to a target including a cable and the like, technologies which are capable of preventing shielding performance of the magnetic shielding material from being degraded even when flaking is performed on the nano-crystalline metal ribbon and at the same time reducing an effect resulting from an eddy current generated at the nano-crystalline metal ribbon, and further enabling the magnetic shielding material to be easily wound on the cable and the like arc required.

Here, a cable 1 shown in
Referring to
The magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable has flexibility. Therefore, as shown in
The magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable, which surrounds the cable 1, may block a signal transmitted through the cable 1 from being affected by a magnetic field, which flows from an external electronic device, or from emitting a magnetic field to the outside, or the like.
Here, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable is described to be applied to the cable 1, but the spirit of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, unlike as shown in
Additionally, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable is described to shield noise including a magnetic field, but the spirit of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable may also shield noise including an electric field, an electromagnetic field, or the like in addition to the magnetic field.
The magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable according to one embodiment of the present disclosure may effectively shield a high-to-low frequency of a signal transmitted through the cable 1, and a structure of the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable will be described below.
Referring to
The thin film magnetic layer 100 may include a metal ribbon sheet in the form of a thin film. Such a metal ribbon sheet may include a nano-crystalline alloy that is made of Fe—Si—Nb—Cu—B, or an amorphous alloy that is made of Fe—Si—B. Here, Nb may serve an effective role in uniformity of a diameter of a nano-crystalline, reduction of magnetostriction, and the like. Cu may increase corrosion resistance of an alloy, prevent coarsening of a nano-crystalline particle, and improve a magnetic characteristic including an iron loss, relative permeability, and the like of the alloy. Also, B may serve a role together with Cu in nano-crystallization of a metal ribbon. Such a metal ribbon sheet has relative permeability which is able to effectively block noise in a low-frequency band in the range of several kilohertz (kHz) to several megahertz (MHz). The nano-crystalline alloy or amorphous alloy contained in the metal ribbon sheet as described above may be formed by performing heat treatment on a metal ribbon, which contains amorphous metal, at a temperature in the range of, for example, 400 to 600 Celsius degrees. At this point, the temperature of heat treatment may be varied according to composition of the amorphous metal contained in the metal ribbon. For example, heat treatment may he preferably performed on a metal ribbon containing Fe—Si—Nb—Cu—B at a temperature in the range of 500 to 520 Celsius degrees (more preferably, 510 Celsius degrees) and thus a nano-crystalline alloy containing Fe—Si—Nb—Cu—B may be formed. Meanwhile, heat treatment may be preferably performed on a metal ribbon containing Fe—Si—B at a temperature in the range of 450 to 480 Celsius degrees (more preferably, 460 Celsius degrees) and thus an amorphous alloy containing Fe—Si—B may be formed.
The heat treatment may vary relative permeability of the metal ribbon sheet. For example, through the heat treatment, the relative permeability may begin to increase from a temperature of about 400 Celsius degrees to have a maximum value at a temperature of 600 Celsius degrees, and then may abruptly decrease from when the temperature exceeds 600 Celsius degrees. Therefore, a metal ribbon sheet having desired relative permeability may be obtained by controlling a process of heat treatment. At this point, the relative permeability, which is varied by the heat treatment, may be initial relative permeability just after the heat treatment is performed.
Also, when the heat treatment is performed, fragility of the metal ribbon sheet may be reinforced. The metal ribbon sheet, which has the reinforced fragility, may be easily divided into a plurality of fine pieces 110 when flaking, is performed, as described below with reference to
The metal ribbon sheet configuring the thin film magnetic layer 100 is provided in the form of a plurality of divided fine pieces 110 as shown in
The plurality of fine pieces 110 are divided and spaced apart therefrom by a gap 120. A size 125 of the gap 120 may be equal to or greater than 0.1 micrometers (um) and equal to or less than 300 um, for example. Further, such a size 125 of the gap 120 may be adjusted in the extension direction 11 of the metal ribbon sheet.
Each of the plurality of fine pieces 110 is a magnetic material having electrical conductivity, and the plurality of fine pieces 110 are electrically isolated from one another by the gap 120.
The gap 120, which is provided each between the plurality of fine pieces 110, provides flexibility to the metal ribbon sheet. Therefore, the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable including such a metal ribbon sheet may be also easily wound on a cable having a small diameter, for example, 1 millimeters (mm).
At this point, the size 125 of the gap 120 may be determined by various factors or a combination thereof. For example, the size 125 of the gap 120 may be determined by considering a frequency band of a signal transmitted through the cable 1, and, when a high-frequency signal is transmitted through the cable 1, it may be determined to be a value relatively greater than that of a size 125 of the gap 120 when a low-frequency signal is transmitted through the cable 1.
Here, as the size 125 of the gap 120 is greater, a magnetic field generated when a signal of a higher frequency is transmitted through the cable 1 may be more effectively shielded.
This is because relative permeability itself of the thin film magnetic layer 100 is decreased as the size 125 of the gap 120 provided each between the plurality of fine pieces 110 is greater (this will be described below with reference to
Additionally, the size 125 of the gap 120 may be determined by further considering a size of each of the plurality of fine pieces 110. For example, to have the same relative permeability, a size 125 of the gap 120 when a size of each of the plurality of fine pieces 110 is large may be determined to be a value relatively greater than that of a size 125 of the gap 120 when the size of each of the plurality of fine pieces 110 is small.
Also, the size 125 of the gap 120 may he determined to he a large value as an intermediate frequency in a frequency band of a signal transmitted through the cable 1 is greater.
When the size 125 of the gap 120 is determined by the various factors as described above, as it will he described in detail with reference to
Meanwhile, the gap 120 may be provided between adjacent fine pieces among the plurality of fine pieces 110 in the extension direction 11 of the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable. Additionally, the gap 120 may be further provided each between the plurality of fine pieces 110 in a width direction (see, a reference number 12 in
Hereinbefore, it has been described a feature of adjusting the relative permeability through the heat treatment, for example, the initial relative permeability just after the heat treatment is performed, and also a feature of adjusting the size 125 of the gap 120. The above described two features may be utilized as technologies of controlling a shielding effect against an electromagnetic field when such an electromagnetic field is generated by a signal that is transmitted through the cable 1. Moreover, in addition to such two features, technology of adjusting, for example, a width of each of the plurality of fine pieces 110 of the thin film magnetic layer 100 may be also utilized as technology of controlling a shielding effect against an electromagnetic field, and this will be described below.
More particularly, it will be described a case in which a frequency signal is currently transmitted through the cable 1, and the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable is wound on the cable 1 in a state in which the cover film layer 220 faces an outward side. At this point, an electromagnetic wave is induced to the conductive layer 320 by the frequency signal being transmitted through the cable 1, and thus the conductive layer 320 emits the induced electromagnetic wave to the outside.
At this point, when at least one among a gap provided each between a plurality of fine pieces of the thin film magnetic layer 100, which is provided at the outward side of the conductive layer 320, a width of each of the plurality of fine pieces, and initial relative permeability just after heat treatment is performed on the metal ribbon sheet is adjusted, a shielding effect against the electromagnetic wave being emitted may be controlled. For example, controlling of the shielding effect may include that a frequency band of a shieldable electrical signal is adjusted and thus an amount of an electromagnetic wave, which is shielded in a corresponding frequency band, is adjusted to be equal to or greater than a specific value (that is, about 50%).
For example, when a frequency signal having a central frequency around about 85 MHz is transmitted through the cable 1, a size of a gap provided each between a plurality of fine pieces is made to have a value equal to or greater than 3 um, a width of each of the plurality of fine pieces is made to have a value equal to or less than 5 mm, initial relative permeability of the thin film magnetic layer 100 is made to have a value in the range of 1 to 5000 just after heat treatment is performed, and an absolute value of an imaginary part of the relative permeability of the thin film magnetic layer 100 is made to have a value over 100, so that an electromagnetic wave, which is induced to the conductive layer 320 by the frequency signal having the central frequency around 85 MHz, may be effectively shielded. Also, when a frequency signal having a frequency in the range of 10 kHz to 200 kHz is transmitted through the cable 1, a size of a gap provided each between a plurality of fine pieces is made to have a value equal to or greater than 0.1 um, a width of each of the plurality of fine pieces is made to have a value equal to or less than 5 mm, initial relative permeability of the thin film magnetic layer 100 is made to have a value in the range of 5000 to 80000 just after heat treatment is performed, and act absolute value of an imaginary part of the relative permeability of the thin film magnetic layer 100 is made to have a value over 100, so that an electromagnetic wave, which is induced to the conductive layer 320 by the frequency signal having the frequency in the range of 10 kHz to 200 kHz, may be also effectively shielded.
The cover film layer 220 is adhered to one side surface of the thin film magnetic layer 100 through the first adhesive layer 210. Hereinafter, a layer including the cover film layer 220 and the first adhesive layer 210 will be referred to as a cover layer 200.
The cover film layer 220 may be any one among a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film, a polyimide (PI) film, and a polycarbonate film, for example. At this point, the first adhesive layer 210 may be an acrylic adhesive, a silicone adhesive, a hot melt adhesive, or the like, for example.
When surrounding the cable 1, such a cover film layer 220 may be removed and then used. In this case, the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable is wound in a state in which the first adhesive layer 210 faces the outward side, and adjacent portions of the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable are partially overlapped with each other such that the cable 1 may he more strongly surrounded due to an adhesive force of the first adhesive layer 210 when the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable is wound.
The conductive layer 320 is adhered to the other side surface opposite to one side surface of the thin film magnetic layer 100 through the second adhesive layer 310. Hereinafter, a layer including the conductive layer 320 and the second adhesive layer 310 will be referred to as a bottom layer 300.
The conductive layer 320 may include aluminum or copper, for example. At this point, the second adhesive layer 310 may be an acrylic adhesive, a silicone adhesive, a hot melt adhesive, or the like, for example. The bottom layer 300 including the conductive layer 320 and the second adhesive layer 310 may be adhered to the thin film magnetic layer 100 after flaking and treatment in which tension is applied, as it will be described below with reference to
Through such lamination treatment, some portion of the first adhesive layer 210 and the second adhesive layer 310 may permeate into the gap 120 provided each between the plurality of fine pieces 110.
However, in another embodiment of the present disclosure, a separate filler may be filled in the gap 120 provided each between the plurality of fine pieces 110 before the bottom layer 300, that is, the conductive layer 320 is adhered.
Some portion of the first and second adhesive layers 210 and 310 permeating into the gap 120, or the filler 121 being filled in the gap 120 may fix and divide the plurality of fine pieces 110 to and from one another. Particularly, material contained in the filler 121 may react with the metal ribbon sheet to form a film (for example, an iron phosphate film or an iron nitrate film), and such a film may serve the above described functions (that is, fixation and inter-division). Therefore, adjacent fine pieces 110 may be prevented from coming into contact with each other due to a flow thereof so that an effect due to an eddy current may be blocked from increasing resulting from that the adjacent fine pieces 110 come into contact with each other.
Additionally, some portion of the first and second adhesive layers 210 and 310 permeating into the gap 120, or the filler 121 being filled in the gap 120 may prevent moisture from penetrating into the gap 120. Consequently, oxidation of the plurality of fine pieces 110 due to moisture penetration into the gap 120 may be prevented so that it may be possible to provide a magnetic shielding tape for a cable without degradation of shielding performance even though flaking is performed.
As described above, in the magnetic shielding tape for a cable according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the metal ribbon sheet configuring the thin film magnetic layer is configured in the form of a plurality of divided fine pieces. Therefore, even when an AC magnetic field is applied to the metal ribbon sheet, an eddy current generated on a surface of the metal ribbon sheet may be reduced. Also, the magnetic shielding tape for a cable has more flexibility by virtue of a gap provided each between a plurality of fine pieces compared to before the metal ribbon sheet is divided, thereby being easily wound on a cable having a small diameter.
In addition, some portion of a first adhesive layer and a second adhesive layer may permeate into a gap provided each between a plurality of fine pieces 110, or a separate filler may be filled in the gap. Further, the plurality of fine pieces 110 may be fixed to and divided from one another by such a filler. Therefore, adjacent fine pieces 110 may be prevented from coming into contact with each other clue to a flow thereof so that an effect due to an eddy current may be blocked from increasing resulting from that the adjacent fine pieces 110 come into contact with each other.
Additionally, some portion of an adhesive layer permeating into a gap, or a filler being filled in the gap may prevent moisture from penetrating into the gap. Consequently, oxidation of the plurality of fine pieces due to moisture penetration into the gap may be prevented so that it may be possible to provide the magnetic shielding tape for a cable without degradation of shielding performance even though flaking is performed.
Moreover, a size of the gap provided each between a plurality of fine pieces may be determined by considering a frequency band of a signal transmitted through a cable. Particularly, when a high-frequency signal is transmitted, a size of the gap may be determined to be a relatively large value compared to when a low-frequency signal is transmitted. Through the described above, even when a high-frequency signal as well as a low-frequency signal is transmitted through a cable, a magnetic field may be effectively shielded.
Meanwhile, the thin film magnetic layer 100 of
This may be identically applied to an embodiment shown in
Referring to
A temperature of the heat treatment performed on the metal ribbon is in the range of 400 to 600 Celsius degrees, and, as described above, it may be varied according to composition of the amorphous metal included in the metal ribbon. For example, heat treatment may be preferably performed on a metal ribbon containing Fe—Si—Nb—Cu—B at a temperature in the range of 500 to 520 Celsius degrees (more preferably, 510 Celsius degrees) and thus a nano-crystalline alloy containing Fe—Si—Nb—Cu—B may be formed. Meanwhile, heat treatment may be preferably performed on a metal ribbon containing Fe—Si—B at a temperature in the range of 450 to 480 Celsius degrees (more preferably, 460 Celsius degrees) and thus an amorphous alloy containing Fe—Si—B may be formed. Here, when the temperature of the heat treatment is less than 400 Celsius degrees, a nano-crystalline particle may not be sufficiently generated and thus desired relative permeability may not be obtained, and, even when the temperature of the heat treatment exceeds 700 Celsius degrees, relative permeability may be significantly lowered due to overheating treatment.
In addition, in Operation S100, at least two or more metal ribbon sheets, each of which is obtained by performing the heat treatment on the metal ribbon, may be stacked to configure the thin film magnetic layer 100. In such a case, the metal ribbon sheets may be adhered to one another by an acrylic adhesive, a silicone adhesive, a hot melt adhesive, and the like, for example.
Next, the cover film layer 220 is adhered to one side surface of the thin film magnetic layer 100 through the first adhesive layer 210 in Operation S110.
Thereafter, flaking is performed on the thin film magnetic layer 100 to which the cover film layer 220 is adhered and thus the metal ribbon sheet included in the thin film magnetic layer 100 is divided into a plurality of fine pieces 110, and further tension is applied to the thin film magnetic layer 100 in the extension direction 11 shown in
With reference to
A surface area of each of the divided fine pieces 110 is less than that of the metal ribbon sheet which is not yet divided into the plurality of fine pieces 110. Therefore, when an AC magnetic field is applied to the metal ribbon sheet, an amount of an eddy current generated on a surface of the metal ribbon sheet may be reduced.
At this point, tension is applied to the thin film magnetic layer 100 in the extension direction 11 of the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable, or a proceeding direction of the thin film magnetic layer 100 while the flaking is performed. Consequently, die gap 120 is provided between adjacent fine pieces 110 among the plurality of fine pieces 110.
Here, the size 125 of the gap 120 may be adjusted (that is, determined) by a strength of tension. For example, when a strength of the tension is relatively large, the size 125 of the gap 120 may be relatively large, and, when the strength of tension is relatively small, the size 125 thereof may be relatively small.
In addition, as described above, the size 125 of the gap 120 may be determined by various factors including a frequency band of a signal transmitted through the cable 1, a size of each of the plurality of fine pieces 110, an intermediate frequency in the frequency band of the signal transmitted through the cable 1, and the like,
That is, according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, a size of a gap provided each between a plurality of fine pieces may be determined by considering a frequency band of a signal transmitted through a cable. Particularly, when a high-frequency signal is transmitted, a size of a gap may be determined to be a relatively large value compared to when a low-frequency signal is transmitted, and thus a magnetic field may be effectively shielded even when the high-frequency signal is transmitted through a cable.
Meanwhile, the gap 120 formed through Operation S120 may be provided each between the plurality of fine pieces 110 in the extension direction 11 of the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable. Also, the gap 120 may be further provided each between the plurality of fine pieces 110 in the width direction 12 of the magnetic shielding tape 1000 for a cable, and, to this end, tension may be applied to the metal ribbon sheet in the width direction 12 thereof although not shown in
Referring back to
Next, the conductive layer 320 is adhered to the other side surface of the thin film magnetic layer 100 through the second adhesive layer 310 in Operation S140.
More particularly, the second adhesive layer 310 is disposed between the other side surface, which is described above, of the thin film magnetic layer 100 and the conductive layer 320. The conductive layer 320 is adhered to the thin film magnetic layer 100 by virtue of such a second adhesive layer 310.
Next, lamination treatment is performed on the bottom layer 300 including the cover layer 200, the conductive layer 320, and the second adhesive layer 310, and the thin film magnetic layer 100 in Operation S150. To describe the above in detail, it will be referred to
Alternatively, the lamination treatment may be performed through a lamination device different from that of
Here, when Operation S130 is not performed, some portion of the first adhesive layer 210 and the second adhesive layer 310 may permeate into the gap 120 provided each between the plurality of fine pieces 110 due to Operation S150.
The plurality of fine pieces 110 may be fixed to and divided from one another by some portion of the first and second adhesive layers 210 and 310 permeating into the gap 120 when Operation S130 is not performed, or by the filler 121 being filled in the gap 120 when Operation S130 is performed. Therefore, adjacent fine pieces 110 may be prevented from coining into contact with each other due to a flow thereof so that an effect due to an eddy current may be blocked from increasing resulting from that the adjacent fine pieces 110 come into contact with each other.
Additionally, some portion of the first and second adhesive layers 210 and 310 permeating into the gap 120, or the filler 121 being filled in the gap 120 may prevent moisture from penetrating into the gap 120. Consequently, oxidation of the plurality of fine pieces 110 due to moisture penetration into the gap 120 may be prevented so that it may be possible to provide the magnetic shielding tape for a cable without degradation of shielding performance even though flaking is performed.
As described above, in the magnetic shielding tape for a cable according to one embodiment of the present disclosure, the metal ribbon sheet configuring the thin film magnetic layer is configured in the form of a plurality of divided fine pieces. Therefore, even when an AC magnetic field is applied to the metal ribbon sheet, an eddy current generated on a surface of the metal ribbon sheet may be reduced.
In addition, some portion of a first adhesive layer and a second adhesive layer may permeate into a gap provided each between a plurality of fine pieces, or a separate filler may be filled in the gap. Further, through the described above, the plurality of fine pieces may be fixed in a state of being divided from one another. Therefore, adjacent fine pieces may be prevented from coining into contact with each other due to a flow thereof so that an effect due to an eddy current may be blocked from increasing resulting from that the adjacent fine pieces come into contact with each other.
Additionally, some portion of an adhesive layer permeating into a gap, or a filler being filled in the gap may prevent moisture from penetrating into the gap. Consequently, oxidation of the plurality of fine pieces due to moisture penetration into the gap may be prevented so that it may be possible to provide the magnetic shielding tape for a cable without degradation of shielding performance even though flaking is performed.
In addition, a size of the gap provided each between the plurality of fine pieces may be determined by considering a frequency band of a signal transmitted through a cable. Particularly, when a high-frequency signal is transmitted, a size of a gap may be determined to be a relatively large value by considering the high-frequency signal compared to when a low-frequency signal is transmitted, and thus a magnetic field may be effectively shielded even when the high-frequency signal is transmitted through a cable.
Meanwhile, in one embodiment of the present disclosure, it has been described that a magnetic field, which is generated when a signal in a high-frequency band as well as in a low-frequency band is transmitted through the cable 1, may be also effectively shielded by adjusting the size 125 of the gap 120 provided each between the plurality of fine pieces 110 as described above, and hereinafter, this will be described in more detail with reference to
However, as shown in
Such a maximum shielding frequency becomes to he large as a gap provided each between fine pieces is larger, a width of each of the fine pieces is smaller, and initial relative permeability, which is just after heat treatment is performed on the thin film magnetic layer 100, is smaller. A relationship among the maximum shielding frequency, the gap provided each between the fine pieces, the width of each of the fine pieces, and the initial relative permeability just after the heat treatment is performed on the thin film magnetic layer 100 is shown in Table 1 as follows, which illustrates values obtained by an experiment.
