However, cleaning the inside of the cable tray is relatively cumbersome, and most workers generally use manual cleaning. In addition, the stones inside the cable tray may expose the wires inside the cable and cause safety hazards. The technical solution of the present invention is aimed at the technical problem that the existing technical solutions are too single, and provides a solution that is significantly different from the existing technology.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a self-cleaning reinforced cable tray, comprising a tray body, mounting seats are installed at both ends of the outer wall of the tray body, cable mounting mechanisms are installed at both ends of the inner side of the tray body, the cable mounting mechanism comprises a first mounting block installed equidistantly from bottom to top at both ends of the inner side of the tray body, a second mounting block is arranged on the top of the first mounting block, an arc groove is opened equidistantly from front to back at the end opposite to the first mounting block, an elastic rubber pad is also arranged inside the arc groove opened by the second mounting block, limiting slide grooves are opened at both ends of the inner side of the tray body toward one end of the second mounting block, a spring is installed on the inner top of the limiting slide groove, and the other end of the spring is connected to a fixed block fixed to the side end of the second mounting block.

[0007] Preferably, the front and rear end surfaces at both ends of the inner side of the bridge body are rotatably connected to the first rotating rod through bearings, and the outer walls of the two groups of the first rotating rods are transmission connected by installing tracks, and the outer walls of the tracks are equidistantly installed with first cleaning brushes.

[0008] Preferably, the front end face of the first rotating rod on the left side is connected to a first connecting rod that passes through the front end of the bridge frame body, and a recessed hole is opened on the top of the front end face of the bridge frame body to install a second connecting rod, and the outer walls of the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are connected by installing a transmission belt.

[0009] Preferably, an inner groove is opened inside the front end plate of the bridge frame body, and the two ends of the inner groove are connected to the second rotating rod through bearings, and the opposite end of the second rotating rod is connected to the reciprocating screw rod, and the two ends of the outer wall of the reciprocating screw rod are sleeved with movable sleeves, and the movable sleeve is connected to a fixed plate toward the rear end surface, and the inner rear end surface of the bridge frame body is opened with a movable groove slidably connected to the fixed plate, and a second cleaning brush is equidistantly arranged on the bottom of the fixed plate.

[0010] Preferably, a first bevel gear is installed on the outer wall of the second rotating rod on the left side, and a second bevel gear meshingly connected to the first bevel gear is connected to the rear end surface of the second connecting rod.

[0011] Preferably, the two groups of movable sleeves can form toward and away movements through the reciprocating screw.

[0012] Preferably, the inner bottom of the bridge frame body is in a V-shaped structure, and a through hole is formed in the inner bottom of the bridge frame body.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] The first cleaning brush can be used to clean the cables at the upper and lower ends of the crawler belt by driving the first connecting rod to rotate. The first connecting rod can also drive the second connecting rod to rotate through the transmission belt. The rotation of the second connecting rod can drive the second bevel gear to rotate and then mesh and rotate the first bevel gear, thereby driving the reciprocating screw rod to rotate. The threads at both ends of the reciprocating screw rod are opposite, so that the two sets of movable sleeves can rotate with the reciprocating screw rod to achieve relative movement and separation, and then control the two sets of fixed plates to move relative movement and separation at the same time, which can drive the second cleaning brush to clean the top of the upper cable. The cleaning of the two sets of cleaning brushes can remove dust and pebbles adhered to the cable and drop them on the inner bottom of the bridge frame body. Finally, the V-shaped structure of the inner bottom of the bridge frame body can make the cleaned dust and pebbles move toward the center of the bridge frame body, and then discharge the dust and pebbles through the through holes.

[0015] 2. When installing the cable according to the present invention, the second mounting blocks at both ends are first pulled upward. At this time, the second mounting block moves upward to drive the fixing block to squeeze the spring to accumulate elastic force. Then, one end of the cable passes through the first mounting block and the second mounting block and is placed on the arc groove opened on the top of the first mounting block. After placement, the pulling force on the second mounting block is released. At this time, the second mounting block moves downward by the elastic force of the spring to clamp and fix the cable.

When using the fixing block 207, the staff first pulls the second mounting blocks 202 at both ends of the cable upward. At this time, the second mounting block 202 moves upward to drive the fixing block 207 to squeeze the spring 206 to accumulate elastic force, and then one end of the cable passes through the first mounting block 201 and the second mounting block 202 and is placed on the arc groove 203 opened on the top of the first mounting block 201. After placement, the pulling force on the second mounting block 202 is released. At this time, the second mounting block 202 moves downward by the elastic force of the spring 206 to clamp and fix the cable. The elastic rubber pad 204 is arranged inside the arc groove 203 at the bottom of the second mounting block 202, which has good elasticity.

A motor that can drive the first connecting rod 6 to rotate is arranged inside the shell. The rotation of the first connecting rod 6 can not only drive the first rotating rod 3 to rotate, thereby rotating the crawler 4 to allow the first cleaning brush 5 to clean, but also drive the second connecting rod 7 to rotate through the transmission belt 8.

[0027] like Figure 1-5As shown, an inner groove 9 is opened inside the front end plate of the bridge body 1, and the two ends of the inner groove 9 are connected to the second rotating rod 10 through bearings, and the opposite end of the second rotating rod 10 is connected to the reciprocating screw rod 11, and the two ends of the outer wall of the reciprocating screw rod 11 are sleeved with movable sleeves 12, and the movable sleeve 12 is connected to the fixed plate 13 toward the rear end surface, and the inner rear end surface of the bridge body 1 is opened with a movable groove 14 slidingly connected to the fixed plate 13, and the bottom of the fixed plate 13 is equidistantly arranged with a second cleaning brush 15, and the second cleaning brush 15 can be driven to clean the top of the upper cable by controlling the two groups of fixed plates 13 to move toward and away from each other at the same time.

The rotation of the second connecting rod 7 can drive the second bevel gear 17 to rotate and then mesh and rotate the first bevel gear 16, thereby driving the reciprocating screw 11 to rotate.

[0029] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the two sets of movable sleeves 12 can form toward and away motions through the reciprocating screw 11, and the threads at both ends of the reciprocating screw 11 are arranged to be opposite, so that the two sets of movable sleeves 12 can rotate with the reciprocating screw 11 to achieve toward and away motions.

[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the inner bottom of the bridge body 1 is in a V-shaped structure, and a through hole 18 is opened on the inner bottom of the bridge body 1. The V-shaped structure of the inner bottom of the bridge body 1 can make the clean dust and small stones move toward the center of the bridge body 1, and then discharge the dust and small stones through the opened through hole 18.

Due to the large dust on the construction site, dust and stone particles may enter the bridge body 1, at this time, by driving the first connecting The rotation of the connecting rod 6 drives the first rotating rod 3 to rotate, thereby rotating the crawler 4. At this time, the first cleaning brush 5 can be set to clean the cables at the upper and lower ends of the crawler 4 as the crawler 4 moves. The rotation of the first connecting rod 6 can also drive the second connecting rod 7 to rotate through the transmission belt 8. The rotation of the second connecting rod 7 can drive the second bevel gear 17 to rotate and then mesh and rotate the first bevel gear 16, thereby driving the reciprocating screw 11 to rotate. The threads at both ends of the reciprocating screw 11 are opposite, so that the two groups of movable sleeves 12 can rotate with the reciprocating screw 11 to achieve relative movement and separation, and then control the two groups of fixed plates 13 to move toward and away from each other at the same time, which can drive the second cleaning brush 15 to clean the top of the upper cable. Finally, the V-shaped structure of the inner bottom of the bridge frame body 1 can make the cleaned dust and small stones move toward the center of the bridge frame body 1, and then the dust and small stones are discharged through the through hole 18.
