Intelligent distribution frame

Abstract

This invention discloses an intelligent patch panel, comprising a clamping component for fixing cables, a frame for supporting the clamping component, and a fixing mechanism mounted on the frame for fixing the clamping component to maintain it in a clamped state. The clamping component includes multiple equidistant parallel and horizontally arranged first connecting rods and multiple equidistant parallel and horizontally arranged second connecting rods. Any first connecting rod is rotatably connected to any second connecting rod and has an included angle, so that any two adjacent first connecting rods and any two adjacent second connecting rods form a deformable rhombus. The intelligent patch panel proposed in this invention facilitates the fixing and separation of multiple different cables, allowing multiple cables to be uniformly clamped and fixed or released. The position of the rhombus-shaped holes allows for quick positioning of the corresponding cable, making it very intuitive and convenient to determine the line to be inspected during use and maintenance. Different cables are separated, so replacing cables does not affect other lines, facilitating management and adjustment of the lines.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power system control technology, and in particular to an intelligent distribution frame. Background Technology

[0002] In power systems, patch panels are primarily used for laying cables and connecting them to electrical components and equipment. One side of the patch panel connects to external lines, while the other side connects to internal equipment, facilitating unified management and wiring of various lines. Existing patch panels typically consist of two parts: a cable tray box containing winches and a patch cabinet fixed above the cable tray box. The patch cabinet uses partitions or support frames to install various components such as switches, relays, and cable organizers. Cables in the patch cabinet are either uniformly secured by cable ties or haphazardly placed in cable trays. When multiple cables are laid simultaneously, the connection points between the cable ends and components serve as stress points. Therefore, these connection points are constantly subjected to gravity during use, making them prone to line faults. Furthermore, while different lines are numbered around their perimeter within the cable trays to distinguish them, this still makes it inconvenient to differentiate lines when troubleshooting. Summary of the Invention

[0003] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, the present invention proposes an intelligent patch panel.

[0004] The present invention proposes an intelligent patch panel, comprising a clamping member for fixing cables, a frame for supporting the clamping member, and a fixing mechanism mounted on the frame for fixing the clamping member to keep the clamping member in a tightened state;

[0005] The clamping component includes multiple equidistant parallel and horizontally arranged first links and multiple equidistant parallel and horizontally arranged second links; any one of the first links and any one of the second links are rotatably connected and have an included angle, so that any two adjacent first links and any two adjacent second links form a deformable rhombus; the cable is located inside the rhombus and is clamped or released through the inner sidewall formed by any two adjacent first links and any two adjacent second links;

[0006] The frame has a first and a second sliding groove arranged horizontally and perpendicularly to each other on any two adjacent inner sidewalls; the clamping member is fixed at the corner of the frame and can be slidably installed on the first and second sliding grooves on the two adjacent outer sidewalls of the clamping member.

[0007] Preferably, it also includes multiple positioning pins, and multiple equidistant and through first positioning holes and second positioning holes are respectively provided on any one of the first connecting rods and any one of the second connecting rods; the positioning pins pass through the first positioning holes and the second positioning holes in sequence and are rotatably mounted on the first connecting rods and the second connecting rods to rotatably connect the first connecting rods and the second connecting rods.

[0008] Preferably, the inner wall of the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first links and any two adjacent second links is provided with a protrusion.

[0009] Preferably, multiple rollers are installed on the sidewalls of the clamping member near the first slide groove and the sidewalls near the second slide groove, respectively.

[0010] Preferably, there is an arc-shaped groove with a smooth transition between the first and second slides.

[0011] Preferably, the fixing mechanism includes a screw and two nuts; a first positioning hole and a second positioning hole are respectively opened at the bottom of the first and second slide grooves on the frame, and the two ends of the screw pass through the two first positioning holes or the two second positioning holes on opposite sides of the frame and are threadedly connected to the two nuts.

[0012] Preferably, both the first positioning hole and the second positioning hole are elongated holes extending along the length of the first and second slide grooves.

[0013] The intelligent patch panel proposed in this invention comprises a clamping component, a frame, and a fixing mechanism. The clamping component is pulled longitudinally to maximize the area enclosed by the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first and second connecting rods, allowing multiple cables to sequentially pass through the corresponding rhombus holes. Then, the clamping component is pushed longitudinally to clamp and fix the cables within the inner wall of the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first and second connecting rods. The fixing mechanism then fixes the clamping component laterally to maintain a tight and fixed state, simultaneously securing multiple cables. This patch panel facilitates the fixing and separation of multiple different cables, allowing for unified clamping and release. Furthermore, the position of the rhombus holes allows for quick location of the corresponding cable, making it very intuitive and convenient to identify the line to be inspected during use and maintenance. Moreover, the separate arrangement of different cables ensures that cable replacement will not affect other lines, thus greatly facilitating line management and adjustment. Attached Figure Description

[0014] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an intelligent patch panel proposed in this invention. Detailed Implementation

[0015] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an intelligent patch panel proposed in this invention.

[0016] Reference Figure 1 The present invention proposes an intelligent patch panel, including a clamping member 1 for fixing cables, a frame 2 for supporting the clamping member 1, and a fixing mechanism 3 installed on the frame 2 for fixing the clamping member 1 so that the clamping member 1 is kept in a tightened state.

[0017] The clamping component 1 includes a plurality of equidistant parallel and horizontally arranged first connecting rods 11 and a plurality of equidistant parallel and horizontally arranged second connecting rods 12; any one of the first connecting rods 11 and any one of the second connecting rods 12 are rotatably connected and have an included angle, so that any two adjacent first connecting rods 11 and any two adjacent second connecting rods 12 form a deformable rhombus; the cable is located inside the rhombus and is clamped or released through the inner sidewall formed by any two adjacent first connecting rods 11 and any two adjacent second connecting rods 12;

[0018] The frame 2 has a first sliding groove 21 and a second sliding groove 22 arranged horizontally and perpendicularly to each other on any two adjacent inner side walls; the clamping member 1 is fixed at the corner of the frame 2, and the clamping member 1 can be slidably installed on the first sliding groove 21 and the second sliding groove 22 on the two adjacent outer side walls.

[0019] In the specific operation of the intelligent patch panel of this embodiment, the clamping member 1 is pulled longitudinally to maximize the area enclosed by the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first connecting rods 11 and any two adjacent second connecting rods 12, and multiple cables are sequentially passed through the multiple rhombus holes one by one; then the clamping member 1 is pushed longitudinally to clamp and fix the cables by the inner wall of the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first connecting rods 11 and any two adjacent second connecting rods 12, and the clamping member 1 is fixed laterally by the fixing mechanism 3 to keep the clamping member 1 in a tightened and fixed state, at which time multiple cables are fixed at the same time.

[0020] In this embodiment, the proposed intelligent patch panel comprises a clamping member 1, a frame 2, and a fixing mechanism 3. The clamping member 1 is pulled longitudinally to maximize the area enclosed by the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first connecting rods 11 and any two adjacent second connecting rods 12, allowing multiple cables to sequentially pass through the rhombus holes. Then, the clamping member 1 is pushed longitudinally to clamp and fix the cables within the inner wall of the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first connecting rods 11 and any two adjacent second connecting rods 12. The fixing mechanism 3 is used to bind the clamping member 1 laterally, keeping it in a tightened and fixed state, thus simultaneously fixing multiple cables. This patch panel facilitates the fixing and separation of multiple different cables, allowing for unified clamping and release. Simultaneously, the position of the rhombus holes allows for quick location of the corresponding cable, making it very intuitive and convenient to identify the line to be inspected during use and maintenance. Furthermore, the separate arrangement of different cables ensures that cable replacement does not affect other lines, making line management and adjustment very convenient.

[0021] In a specific embodiment, it also includes multiple positioning pins 13. Multiple equidistant first positioning holes and second positioning holes are respectively provided on any first link 11 and any second link 12. The positioning pins 13 pass through the first positioning holes and the second positioning holes in sequence and are rotatably mounted on the first link 11 and the second link 12 to rotatably connect the first link 11 and the second link 12.

[0022] By setting multiple positioning pins 13, the four connection points of the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first links 11 and any two adjacent second links 12 can be positioned, thereby enhancing the connection strength and clamping strength of the entire clamping component 1.

[0023] Furthermore, the inner wall of the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first links 11 and any two adjacent second links 12 is provided with a protrusion 15.

[0024] The outer surface of the protrusion 15 contacts the cable, reducing the contact area between the inner wall of the rhombus formed by any two adjacent first links 11 and any two adjacent second links 12 and the cable, thus enhancing the clamping strength.

[0025] Furthermore, multiple rollers 14 are respectively installed on the side wall of the clamping member 1 near the first slide groove 21 and the side wall near the second slide groove 22.

[0026] The arrangement of multiple rollers 14 transforms the friction between the clamping member 1 and the first slide groove 21 and the second slide groove 22 from sliding friction to rolling friction, reducing friction and making the movement of the clamping member 1 more flexible and convenient to operate.

[0027] Furthermore, there is a smoothly transitioning arc-shaped groove 23 between the first slide 21 and the second slide 22. The clamping member 1 can slide freely on the inner wall of the frame 2, enhancing the flexibility of the patch panel and facilitating adjustment.

[0028] In other specific embodiments, the fixing mechanism 3 includes a screw 31 and two nuts 32; a first positioning hole 211 and a second positioning hole 221 are respectively opened at the bottom of the first slide groove 21 and the second slide groove 22 on the frame 2, and the two ends of the screw 31 pass through the two first positioning holes 211 or the two second positioning holes 221 on opposite sides of the frame 2 and are threaded to the two nuts 32.

[0029] After the cable is fixed by the clamp 1, the screw 31 passes through the two first positioning holes 211 or the second positioning hole 221 in sequence along the direction perpendicular to the contraction direction of the clamp 1. The two ends of the screw 31 are connected and fixed to the two nuts 32, so that the clamp 1 is fixed in the contraction direction.

[0030] Furthermore, both the first positioning hole 211 and the second positioning hole 221 are elongated holes extending along the length of the first slide groove 21 and the second slide groove 22.

[0031] The first positioning hole 211 and the second positioning hole 221 are elongated holes, which allows the screw 31 to be positioned and fixed at any position in the longitudinal or transverse direction of the frame 2, thereby increasing the positioning range.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
