Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of cable storage equipment, in particular to a storage roller for storing multiple cables. Background Art

[0002] A cable organizer is a device used to store and organize wires, cables, and other cords. It typically features wheels or drums, allowing for easy access and tangle-free storage. Cable organizers come in a variety of sizes and materials to suit your needs, facilitating cable management and maintenance.

[0003] However, in actual use, due to the material difference between aluminum wire and copper wire, aluminum wire and copper wire have different requirements for the storage roller. The softer copper wire can withstand a smaller storage roller radius, while the aluminum wire is at risk of damage when stored on a storage roller with the same radius. Even cables of the same material have different requirements for the storage roller radius when their diameters are different. At the same time, when the storage roller accommodates the wires, if too many wires are piled together, it may cause excessive extrusion, resulting in excessive pressure between the wires, which may damage the insulation layer of the wires or cause the wires to deform, affecting the electrical performance of the wires. When there are too many wires, they are prone to entanglement and crossing on the storage roller, which not only increases the difficulty of management and maintenance, but also may cause mutual interference between the wires, affecting the transmission efficiency and signal quality of the wires. When there are too many wires on the storage roller and the wires are tightly stacked, the air circulation around the wires may be poor, affecting the heat dissipation effect, causing the wires to heat up too much, affecting the safe and stable operation of the equipment.

[0033] Furthermore, the first roller assembly 101 includes a first roller 101a and a drive shaft 101b fixed at both ends of the first roller 101a; the first limiting plate assembly 102 includes a first large plate 102a and a small plate 102b fixed on the outer ring surfaces at both ends of the first roller 101a.

[0034] It should be noted that the drive shaft 101b can be connected to the motor. Driven by the motor, the drive shaft 101b and the first roller body 101a rotate together to store the cables. The first large plate 102a and the small plate 102b are used to limit the stored cables. Under the obstruction of the first large plate 102a and the small plate 102b, the cables cannot slide out from the first roller body 101a to the drive shaft 101b.

[0035] Preferably, the second roller assembly 201 includes a second roller 201a, which is coaxially sleeved on the outside of the small plate 102b; the second limiting plate assembly 202 includes a second large plate 202a fixed on the outer ring surface of the second roller 201a close to one end of the small plate 102b, and the second large plate 202a and the first large plate 102a are arranged opposite to each other; the connecting assembly 203 includes a convex clamping part 203a and a guide plate 203b fixed on the outer ring surface of the second roller 201a; the second large plate 202a and the first large plate 102a have the same diameter.

[0036] In this embodiment, the first roller assembly 101 and the first limiting plate assembly 102 cooperate with each other, so that the cable can be stored on the first roller assembly 101; the second roller assembly 201 and the second limiting plate assembly 202 cooperate with each other, so that the cable stored on the first roller assembly 101 can be extended and stored on the second roller assembly 201.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 10 , which is the second embodiment of the present invention, and is based on the previous embodiment.

[0039] Specifically, a ring slot W-1 and a ring clamping groove W-2 are provided on the first large disk 102a, and the ring slot W-1 and the ring clamping groove W-2 are connected to each other; a receiving hole W-3 coaxial with the second roller body 201a is provided in the second roller body 201a, the small disk 102b contacts the inner wall of the receiving hole W-3, and the first roller body 101a is located in the receiving hole W-3; a wire groove W-4 connecting the side wall of the second roller body 201a to the receiving hole W-3 is provided between the convex clamping piece 203a and the guide plate 203b; the ring slot W-1 is connected to the bottom of the ring clamping groove W-2.

[0040] It should be noted that the diameter of the accommodating hole W-3 is the same as the outer diameter of the small plate 102b. After the second roller body 201a is sleeved on the outside of the small plate 102b, the small plate 102b can limit the second roller body 201a in directions other than the axial direction.

[0041] Furthermore, the convex clamping member 203a includes a convex clamping seat 203a-1, and the upper surface of the convex clamping seat 203a-1 is smoothly connected by a first component surface K-1, a second component surface K-2 and a third component surface K-3; the first component surface K-1 is tangent to the outer ring surface of the second roller body 201a; the upper surface of the guide plate 203b is connected by a fourth component surface K-4 and a fifth component surface K-5, and the connection between the fourth component surface K-4 and the fifth component surface K-5 is chamfered; the fourth component surface K-4 is parallel to the third component surface K-3, and the fourth component surface K-4 and the third component surface K-3 are component surfaces of the wire groove W-4, and the fifth component surface K-5 is tangent to the outer ring surface of the second roller body 201a, and the distance between the fourth component surface K-4 and the third component surface K-3 is slightly larger than the diameter of the cable.

[0042] Furthermore, an extrusion hole W-5 and a limiting hole W-6 connected to the end of the extrusion hole W-5 are provided in the convex clamping seat 203a-1; the convex clamping member 203a includes an extrusion block 203a-2 slidably set in the extrusion hole W-5, and a limiting block 203a-3 slidably set in the limiting hole W-6, and the edges of the extrusion block 203a-2 close to the second large disk 202a are rounded.

[0043] It should be noted that the end of the extrusion block 203a-2 protrudes from the extrusion hole W-5, and the length of the portion of the extrusion block 203a-2 protruding from the extrusion hole W-5 does not exceed the radius of the rounded portion of the extrusion block 203a-2.

[0044] Preferably, a push groove W-7 is provided in the limit block 203a-3, and the lower surface of the push groove W-7 is composed of a smoothly connected inclined sliding surface K-6 and a flat surface K-7; a clamping groove W-8 is provided at one end of the limit block 203a-3 close to the second large disk 202a, and the clamping groove W-8 extends into the ring slot W-1; the convex clamping member 203a also includes a retaining spring 203a-4 whose two ends are respectively fixed on the push groove W-7 and one end of the extrusion block 203a-2.

[0045] It should be noted that the edge of the lowest end of the inclined sliding surface K-6 is slightly sunken into the push groove W-7, which allows the end of the extrusion block 203a-2 to be partially stuck in the push groove W-7 without being subject to other external forces, so that the relative position relationship between the extrusion block 203a-2 and the limit block 203a-3 can be more stable without being subject to other external forces.

[0046] In this embodiment, when the operator needs to store the cable, he needs to first fix one end of the cable on the first roller body 101a and start the motor to drive the drive shaft 101b to rotate (the direction of rotation is clockwise when looking axially from the first large disk 102a to the small disk 102b); after the cable on the first roller body 101a is stored to a diameter slightly smaller than the accommodating hole W-3, the operator needs to guide the cable to one end of the first large disk 102a and insert the second storage mechanism 200; during the insertion of the second storage mechanism 200, the operator needs to align the limit block 203a-3 with the ring slot W-1 (such as Figure 10 As shown), align the receiving hole W-3 with the small plate 102b so that the second roller body 201a is inserted outside the small plate 102b.

[0047] It should be noted that, during the process of inserting the second storage mechanism 200, the operator also needs to align the cable with the wire groove W-4 so that the cable can be completely squeezed into the wire groove W-4 when the second roller body 201a contacts the first large plate 102a; during the process of the cable being squeezed into the wire groove W-4, the cable will squeeze the squeezing block 203a-2, so that the squeezing block 203a-2 is squeezed into the squeezing hole W-5, which will cause the other end of the squeezing block 203a-2 to squeeze the inclined sliding surface K-6, so that the retaining spring 203a-4 is stretched while the limit block 203a-3 is completely The body is squeezed and slides downward from the limit hole W-6. The downward sliding limit block 203a-3 will make the limit block 203a-3 close to the bottom of one end of the card slot W-8 and contact the bottom of the ring slot W-1; after that, the operator needs to start the motor to drive the drive shaft 101b to rotate. The rotating first roller body 101a will drive the cable from the wire groove W-4 obliquely out to the outer ring surface of the second roller body 201a and squeeze and push the second roller body 201a, so that the second roller body 201a rotates to the card slot W-8 and slides into the range of the ring card slot W-2, so that the second roller body 201a completes the limit.

[0048] It should also be noted that after the second roller body 201a completes the limiting operation, the operator needs to make the cable continue to rotate around the second roller body 201a for one circle while sticking to the second roller body 201a. During this process, the cable will be driven by the second roller body 201a to be obliquely led out from the wire groove W-4 to the outer ring surface of the second roller body 201a. After completing one circle around the outer ring surface of the second roller body 201a, it will be wound from the fifth component surface K-5 to cover the top of the wire groove W-4, and then wound from the first component surface K-1 to the outer ring surface of the second roller body 201a again. This can allow the cable itself to limit the cable in the wire groove W-4, prevent the cable in the wire groove W-4 from falling out, and make the cable more firmly fixed.

[0049] It should be understood that in the development of any actual embodiment, as in any engineering or design project, numerous implementation-specific decisions may be made. Such a development effort may be complex and time-consuming, but for those of ordinary skill having the benefit of this disclosure, the development effort will be a routine task of design, fabrication, and production without undue experimentation.

[0050] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, which should all be included in the scope of the claims of the present invention.
