Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on specific circumstances.

[0060] To provide a clearer and more accurate understanding of the present invention, the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings illustrate exemplary embodiments of the present invention, with like reference numerals representing like elements. It should be understood that the scales shown in the accompanying drawings are not those of actual implementations of the present invention. These scales are for illustrative purposes only and are not drawn to scale.

[0061] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 2The cable clamp 100 is used to clamp a cable 400 for laying or pulling the cable. The cable 400 includes a cable body 401 and an auxiliary reinforcement member 402 connected to the outside of the cable body. The cable 400 is a cable, wire, or cable. In this embodiment, the cable 400 is used as an example.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 3 The cable 400 includes a cable body 401 and multiple auxiliary reinforcement members 402 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the outer surface of the cable body 401. The multiple auxiliary reinforcement members 402 include two or more auxiliary reinforcement members 402. In some feasible embodiments, the number of auxiliary reinforcement members 402 arranged on both sides of the outer surface of the cable body 401 is the same or different. In some feasible embodiments, multiple auxiliary reinforcement members 402 are arranged on each side of the outer surface of the cable body 401, arranged side by side or in a matrix, or only one auxiliary reinforcement member 402 is provided on each side of the outer surface of the cable body 401. In some feasible embodiments, the cable 400 may further include a single auxiliary reinforcement member 402. The following description uses the example of only one auxiliary reinforcement member 402 on each side of the outer surface of the cable body 401. Specifically, the cable 400 includes two auxiliary reinforcement members 402a and 402b. The cross-sections of the cable body 401, the auxiliary reinforcement members 402a, and the auxiliary reinforcement members 402b are all circular. The auxiliary reinforcement members 402a and 402b are made of metal or aramid material. The axes of the cable body 401, the auxiliary reinforcement members 402a, and the auxiliary reinforcement members 402b are aligned, and the diameters of the auxiliary reinforcement members 402a and 402b are smaller than the diameter of the cable body 401. The auxiliary reinforcement members 402a and 402b are detachably connected to the cable body 401 via a tearable tear portion 403. The tear portion 403 is a film that is easily torn. When the cable 400 is in use, by applying an external force to the auxiliary reinforcement members 402a and 402b in a direction away from the cable body 401, the tear portion 403 can be torn open, thereby separating the auxiliary reinforcement members 402a and 402b from the cable body 401. As can be understood, when cable 400 is being pulled and installed, auxiliary reinforcement members 402a and 402b can be used for pulling, thereby increasing the tensile strength of cable 400 and further protecting cable body 401. This makes it suitable for installations requiring greater tensile strength. Furthermore, because auxiliary reinforcement members 402a and 402b are symmetrically positioned on either side of cable body 401, cable 400 is balanced during pulling and installation, facilitating operation.

[0063] The cable clamp 100 includes a mounting frame 1, a clamping member 2, and a hanger 3. The mounting frame 1 is integrally formed. In this embodiment, there are two clamping members 2 corresponding to the two auxiliary reinforcement members 402 of the cable 400. One end of each clamping member 2 is pivotally connected to the mounting frame 1, and the other end is snapped with the mounting frame 1. The clamping member 2 can be operably switched between an open and a closed state. When the clamping member 2 is in the open state, the clamping member 2 is opened at a certain angle relative to the mounting frame 1, allowing the auxiliary reinforcement members 402a and 402b to be placed between the mounting frame 1 and the corresponding clamping member 2. When the clamping member 2 is in the closed state, the clamping member 2 is snapped with the mounting frame 1 to clamp the auxiliary reinforcement member 402 between the clamping member 2 and the mounting frame 1. The hanger 3 is provided on the mounting frame 1 for hanging on an object (such as a rod-shaped object or a fixed object), so that the cable clamp 100 can be suspended to achieve the cable pulling installation and laying of the cable 400. In some feasible embodiments, the hanger 3 is arranged on the top of the cable clamp 100 (eg Figure 4 As shown), it can also be set on one side of the cable clamp 100, so that the cable 400 can be pulled from the vertical direction or from the side direction (as shown in the figure).

[0064] Please see again Figure 1-2 and Figure 5 The mounting frame 1 is made of insulating material and has a bottom 18 and a top 19 arranged in opposite directions. One end of the clamping member 2 is pivotally connected to the bottom 18 near the mounting frame 1, and the other end is buckled between the bottom 18 and the top 19. Furthermore, the other end is buckled near the middle position of the mounting frame 1. The bottom 18 is recessed toward the top 19 to form a positioning groove 11 and a groove wall 110 formed to surround the positioning groove 11. The groove wall 110 includes oppositely arranged side walls 111, and each side wall 111 is provided with a first pivot portion 16 at one end away from the top 19. The positioning groove 11 is in the shape of an elongated strip and extends from one side of the bottom 18 to the other side along the direction in which the cable 400 extends. The cable body 401 is accommodated in the positioning groove 11 and is located between the two side walls 111 and the first pivot portions 16 on the two side walls 111 to position the cable body 401. The first pivoting portion 16 is provided with a plurality of first notches 160 at intervals, so that the first pivoting portion 16 includes a plurality of first hinged portions 161 arranged at intervals. Each first hinged portion 161 is provided with a first pivoting hole 1610 arranged along the extending direction of the cable body 401.

[0065] The mounting frame 1 also includes a supporting portion 13, which extends from one side of the bottom 18 in a direction away from the top 19. The supporting portion 13 includes a connecting portion 130 and a supporting portion 131. The connecting portion 130 is connected between the bottom 18 and the supporting portion 131. The supporting portion 131 is bent in a tile-like shape from the end of the connecting portion 130 away from the bottom 18 toward the top 19 and is arranged opposite to the positioning groove 11, and is used to support the cable body 401 positioned in the positioning groove 11. That is, the cable 400 can avoid problems such as sagging or brittle breakage due to gravity under the support of the supporting portion 13. In some feasible embodiments, the supporting portion 13 is set to a or hook shape, which can also play a supporting role.

[0066] The mounting frame 1 is also provided with a cavity 14 and a side wall 141 surrounding the cavity 14. The cavity 14 passes through the mounting frame 1 along the direction in which the cable 400 extends. The cavity 14 is located in the middle of the mounting frame 1, that is, between the bottom 18 and the top 19. The side wall 141 includes two first side walls 1410 respectively arranged opposite to the two clamping members 2. The first side wall 1410 is provided with a plurality of first buckling portions 17 arranged at intervals. In this embodiment, each first buckling portion 17 is provided with a card hole 170. The card holes 170 are arranged in a straight line along the direction in which the cable 400 extends. The card hole 170 passes through the first side wall 1410 and is connected to the cavity 14.

[0067] The mounting frame 1 is provided with a fixing groove 15 on the side facing the two clamping members 2. The fixing groove 15 is located near the bottom 18. The fixing groove 15 is in the shape of an elongated strip, extending from one side of the mounting frame 1 to the other side along the direction in which the cable 400 extends. The shape of the fixing groove 15 matches the shape of the auxiliary reinforcement 402 and is used to accommodate the auxiliary reinforcement 402. The mounting frame 1 is also provided with partition ribs (not shown). The partition ribs are arranged at equal intervals in the fixing groove 15, dividing the fixing groove 15 into a plurality of fixed spaces (not shown).

[0068] Furthermore, the mounting frame 1 is further provided with a plurality of recesses 190. The recesses 190 are formed on the top 19. Specifically, the recesses 190 are recessed from a portion of the outer surface of the top 19. The recesses 190 are provided to prevent the surface of the mounting frame 1 from shrinking during the molding process.

[0069] Please see Figure 6The clamping member 2 is roughly in the shape of a rectangular plate, and its shape is adapted to the mounting frame 1. One end of the clamping member 2 is provided with a second pivoting portion 21, the other end is provided with a second buckling portion 22, and a supporting portion 24 between one end and the other end of the clamping member 2. The second buckling portion 22 is arranged corresponding to the first buckling portion 17. Among them, the second buckling portion 22 is provided with a buckle 220 corresponding to the locking hole 170. In this embodiment, the supporting portion 24 is provided with supporting blocks 241 at intervals, which correspond to multiple fixed spaces one by one. When the clamping member 2 is in the closed state, the multiple supporting blocks 241 extend into the corresponding fixed spaces one by one. It can be understood that in some feasible embodiments, the first buckling portion 17 and the second buckling portion 22 can also be provided with buckles and locking holes respectively. In some feasible embodiments, the second pivoting portion 21 is provided with multiple second notches 210 at intervals, so that the first pivoting portion 21 includes multiple second hinged portions 212 arranged at intervals. Each second hinge portion 212 is provided with a second pivot hole 211 opened along the extending direction of the cable 400 .

[0070] A notch 25 is further provided on a side of the clamping member 2 away from the mounting frame 1 at a position corresponding to the second buckling portion 22 , so that the user can apply force to open the clamping member 2 when opening the clamping member 2 .

[0071] The cable clamp 100 further includes a pivot 4. The pivot 4 is used to pivotally connect the clamping member 2 to the mounting frame 1. The pivot 4 is made of metal material but is not limited to metal materials, as long as the material has a certain strength.

[0072] When the clamping member 2 is installed on the mounting frame 1, first, each second hinge portion 212 is inserted into the first notch 160 accordingly, so that the first hinge portion 161 and the second hinge portion 212 are arranged alternately, and the first pivot hole 1610 and the second pivot hole 211 are arranged concentrically; then, the pivot 4 is inserted into the first pivot hole 1610 and the second pivot hole 211 in sequence, wherein the pivot 4 and the first hinge portion 161 and the second hinge portion 212 are interference fit.

[0073] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 When using the cable clamp 100 to clamp the cable 400, first open the clamping member 2 of the cable clamp 100 from the mounting frame 1; then, place the auxiliary reinforcement member 402, which has been torn from the cable body 402, between the clamping member 2 and the mounting frame 1. The cable body 401 is placed into the positioning groove 11 from one side of the supporting portion 13 and supported by the supporting portion 13; then, pinch the clamping member 2 toward the mounting frame 1 from both sides to engage the clamping member 2 with the mounting frame 1, thereby clamping the auxiliary reinforcement member 402 on both sides of the mounting frame 1. It can be understood that if the clamping member 2 of the cable clamp 100 is open, only one hand is required to grasp the cable clamp 100 to clamp the auxiliary reinforcement member 402, which is more convenient.

[0074] Please see again Figure 3 In this embodiment, the hanger 3 is a long hook. The hanger 3 is made of metal. The hanger 3 is set along the direction of the cable 400, with one end embedded in the mounting frame 1 and the other end extending horizontally from the side of the mounting frame 1 to form a hook portion 31 at the end. In some feasible embodiments, the hanger 3 can also be set along the direction perpendicular to the cable extension, with one end embedded in the mounting frame 1 and the other end extending from the top to the outside of the mounting frame 1 ( Figure 4 shown).

[0075] When using the cable clamp 100 for wiring, first, clamp the clamp 100 at intervals on the cable 400; then, use the hanger 3 to hang the clamp 100 on a corresponding object, such as a telephone pole, wall, etc., to achieve wiring or laying of the cable 400.

[0076] Please see Figure 9 , which is a perspective schematic diagram of a cable clamp 100' provided in another embodiment. In this embodiment, cable clamp 100' differs from cable clamp 100 in that the supporting portion 13 is omitted, and the hanger 3' in cable clamp 100' differs from the hanger 3 in cable clamp 100 in structure. The end of hanger 3' is in the shape of a hanging ring.

[0077] Please see Figure 10 , Figure 10 Schematic diagram of the steps for using the cable clamp 100. The method for using the cable clamp 100 includes the following steps:

[0078] Step S101, providing an auxiliary reinforcement member 402 on the outer surface of the cable body 401;

[0079] Step S103: Provide a cable clamp 100. Specifically, the cable clamp 100 is provided with a hanger 3 for suspending the cable clamp 100. The cable clamp 100 includes a mounting frame 1 and a clamping member 2 pivotally connected to the mounting frame 1 at one end. The clamping member 2 is operable to switch between an open and a closed state. When the clamping member 2 is in the open state, the clamping member 2 is opened at a certain angle relative to the mounting frame 1, allowing the auxiliary reinforcement member 402 to be placed between the mounting frame 1 and the clamping member 2. When the clamping member 2 is in the closed state, the clamping member 2 is engaged with the mounting frame 1 to clamp the auxiliary reinforcement member 402 between the clamping member 2 and the mounting frame 1. There are two auxiliary reinforcement members 402, which are symmetrically arranged on the outer surface of the cable body 401.

[0080] Step S105: Using the mounting frame 1 and the clamping member 2, the auxiliary reinforcement member 402 is clamped between the mounting frame 1 and the clamping member 2.

[0081] Step S107: placing the cable body 401 on the supporting portion 13 so as to support the cable body 401 through the supporting portion 13.

[0082] Step S109: Use the hanger 3 to hang the cable clamp 100 on an external object.

[0083] In some embodiments, step S107 may be omitted.

[0084] The above-mentioned cable clamp 100 clamps the auxiliary reinforcement 402 of the cable 400, effectively concentrating the force of the cable 400 on the auxiliary reinforcement 402, preventing the cable body 401 from being brittlely broken during use. The hanger 3 of the cable clamp 100 hangs the cable 400 on an external fixed object, facilitating the laying of the cable 400.

[0085] Obviously, those skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims and their equivalents, the present invention is intended to include such changes and modifications.

[0086] The above examples are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope of the present invention.
