20110143078 | Polymer Pin Type Insulator And Method Of Manufacturing The Same - The present invention provides a polymer pin type insulator made of a polymer material and a method of manufacturing the same. The method of manufacturing a polymer pin type insulator, includes the steps of: forming an inner core which is made of an insulating material and has a threaded hole engaged with a pin coupled with a steel cross-arm or a wooden crossbar of an electric pole; sanding the inner core using a sanding solution to enlarge a surface area of the inner core; applying an adhesive onto the inner core; and forming a polymer housing, which constitutes an outer appearance of the polymer pin type insulator and is provided with an electric wire support groove at an upper portion thereof, by vacuum-injecting a polymer material onto the inner core. The method of manufacturing a polymer pin type insulator is advantageous in that the design of a pin type insulator can be very easily modified depending on the requirements of users and the use conditions of the pin type insulator. Further, the polymer pin type insulator is advantageous in that it can be sufficiently used even at high pressure, can be easily transported and installed, can prevent accidents and can enjoy an increased lifespan. | 06-16-2011 |
