Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of optical cables, in particular to an indoor invisible optical cable. Background Art

[0002] Optical cable is a communication line used for long-distance, high-speed data transmission. Optical cable is manufactured to meet optical, mechanical or environmental performance specifications. It uses one or more optical fibers placed in a sheath as the transmission medium and can be used individually or in groups.

[0003] Although the existing invisible optical cable has a certain degree of flexibility, it is still relatively fragile and easily squeezed, pulled and worn by external forces. During the home decoration process, if the optical cable is accidentally touched by tools or pressed by heavy objects, it may be damaged. Therefore, we propose an indoor invisible optical cable. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an indoor invisible optical cable, which solves the problems raised in the background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: an indoor invisible optical cable, comprising a sheath, a side wall of the sheath is provided with four evenly distributed grooves, support frames are installed on three sides of the inner cavity of the grooves, and the outer wall of the support frame is provided with card slots, optical units are arranged in the two middle grooves, and electrical units are arranged in the two grooves on both sides, and the optical unit and the electrical unit are both snapped into the matching card slots.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the optical unit is card-mounted in the groove of the sheath. The adopted sheath can protect the optical unit. When there is a lateral impact, the impact force can be reduced to protect the normal communication of the optical unit. In addition, a card slot is opened on the support frame, which can facilitate the separation of the optical unit and the electrical unit and facilitate construction. At the same time, the optoelectronic hybrid mode is adopted, which is more suitable for home network improvement than the traditional invisible optical cable.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the support frame comprises:

[0008] A sleeve, one end of which is provided with a hole, the sleeve is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove, the inner cavity of the sleeve is plugged with an adapted hollow rod, the inner end of the hollow rod is fixed with a spring, the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the end surface of the inner cavity of the sleeve, the outer end of the hollow rod is fixedly connected with a clamping block, the outer wall of the clamping block is fixed with a rubber pad, and a through hole is provided in the middle of the outer wall of the clamping block and is connected to the hollow rod;

[0009] In actual use, pushing the clamp can drive the hollow rod to compress the spring, thereby making it adjustable. When clamping and positioning optical units and electrical units with different outer diameters, the reverse thrust of the spring can be used to drive the clamp to clamp the optical unit and the electrical unit tightly, thereby making the device adjustable within a certain range and highly adaptable.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a protective component is provided in the middle of the outer wall of the sheath, and the protective component comprises:

[0011] A hollow plate, the hollow plate is attached to the middle of the outer wall of the sheath, a first magnet block is fixed to one side wall of the hollow plate, a mounting groove is provided on the outer wall of the sheath corresponding to the first magnet block, a second magnet block is fixed to the inner cavity of the mounting groove, the first magnet block is inserted into the mounting groove and is adsorbed and connected to the second magnet block;

[0012] By connecting the hollow plate to the sheath by magnetic attraction, the upper and lower electric units can be protected, which helps to prevent the electric units from being damaged by accidental contact or scratches, and helps to extend the service life of the electric units.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a fan is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer wall of the hollow plate, and the fan is connected to the hollow plate, the inner walls of the grooves on both sides are provided with first channels, the first channels are connected to the adjacent first grooves, the inner walls of the two middle grooves are provided with second channels, the second channels are connected to the corresponding sleeves, the inner wall of the second channel is provided with a third channel, the third channel is connected to the hollow plate;

[0014] The fan is operated to extract air, so that negative pressure can be formed on the hollow plate, and negative pressure can be formed on the third channel and the second channel, so that a ventilation duct is formed through the through holes on the sleeve, the hollow rod and the clamping block, so that the heat generated by the surfaces of the optical unit and the electrical unit during operation can be taken away, thereby achieving the effect of auxiliary heat dissipation, and the setting of the first channel allows the air in the grooves on both sides to enter the groove in the middle to ensure air pressure balance.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a first strip groove is horizontally opened in the middle of the inner arc surface of the rubber pad, and a plurality of evenly distributed second strip grooves are longitudinally opened on the inner arc surface of the rubber pad;

[0016] The arrangement of the first strip groove and the second strip groove enables the hollow rod to increase the air flow channel at the periphery of the optical unit and the electrical unit when the air is extracted, thereby facilitating the improvement of the heat dissipation effect on the optical unit and the electrical unit.

[0017] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sheath is a low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant sheath or a flame-retardant and fire-resistant sheath.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, it can be specifically a polyethylene sheath or a silicone rubber sheath.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] The indoor invisible optical cable of the technical solution of the present application adopts an optoelectronic hybrid mode, which is more suitable for improving home networks than traditional invisible optical cables. The sheath used can protect the optical unit. When there is a lateral impact, the impact force can be reduced to protect the normal communication of the optical unit. A card slot is provided on the support frame, which can facilitate the stripping of the electrical / optical unit and is easy to construct.

[0023] Compared with the traditional invisible optical cable, the present invention mainly integrates the optical cable with the interior design to achieve invisibility. The sheath color can be changed according to requirements. The introduction of modules such as electrical units gives users more choices and can well meet the requirements of modern customers for both practicality and aesthetics.

[0024] The hollow plate is connected to the sheath by magnetic attraction, so that the upper and lower electrical units can be protected, which is helpful to prevent the electrical units from being damaged by accidental contact or scratches, and is helpful to extend the service life of the electrical units;

[0035] See also Figure 1-4 The present invention provides a technical solution: an indoor invisible optical cable, comprising a sheath 1, a side wall of the sheath 1 is provided with four evenly distributed grooves 11, three sides of the inner cavity of the grooves 11 are installed with support frames 12, the two middle grooves 11 are provided with optical units 14, the two grooves 11 on both sides are provided with electrical units 13, and the optical units 14 and the electrical units 13 are both snap-connected to the corresponding multiple support frames 12.

[0036] During actual use, the optical unit 14 is clamped in the groove 11 of the sheath 1. The sheath 1 used can protect the optical unit 14. When there is a lateral impact, the impact force can be reduced to protect the normal communication of the optical unit 14. The support frame 12 is telescopically adjustable, so that the optical unit 14 and the electrical unit 13 can be easily peeled off, which is convenient for construction. At the same time, the optoelectronic hybrid mode is adopted, which is more suitable for home network improvement than the traditional invisible optical cable.

[0037] Furthermore, the sheath 1 is a low-smoke halogen-free flame-retardant sheath or a flame-retardant and fire-resistant sheath, and specifically may be a polyethylene sheath or a silicone rubber sheath.

[0038] Furthermore, the optical unit 14 is an optical fiber.

[0039] It is worth mentioning that the electrical unit 13 is an LED light strip, an atmosphere light or a searchlight, so that it can realize automatic control and adjustment of the light in cooperation with the sensor, making the layout more beautiful.

[0040] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the support frame 12 includes:

[0041] The sleeve 3 has a hole 35 at one end, the sleeve 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove 11, the inner cavity of the sleeve 3 is plugged with an adapted hollow rod 31, the inner end of the hollow rod 31 is fixed with a spring 34, the other end of the spring 34 is fixedly connected to the inner cavity end face of the sleeve 3, the outer end of the hollow rod 31 is fixedly connected with a clamping block 32, the outer wall of the clamping block 32 is fixed with a rubber pad 33, and a through hole is opened in the middle of the outer wall of the clamping block 32 and is connected to the hollow rod 31;

[0042] It should be understood that in actual use, the pushing clamp 32 can drive the hollow rod 31 to compress the spring 34, thereby enabling adjustment. When clamping and positioning the optical unit 14 and the electrical unit 13 with different outer diameters, the reverse thrust of the spring 34 can be used to drive the clamp 32 to clamp the optical unit 14 and the electrical unit 13 tightly, thereby making the device adjustable within a certain range and thus highly adaptable.

[0046] It should be noted that a fan 21 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer wall of the hollow plate 2, and the fan 21 is connected to the hollow plate 2.

[0047] During actual use, the fan 21 operates to extract air, so that negative pressure is formed on the hollow plate 2, and negative pressure is formed on the third channel 17 and the second channel 16, so that a ventilation duct is formed through the through holes on the sleeve 3, the hollow rod 31 and the clamping block 32, so that the heat generated by the surfaces of the optical unit 14 and the electrical unit 13 during operation can be taken away, thereby achieving the effect of auxiliary heat dissipation, and the setting of the first channel 15 allows the air in the grooves 11 on both sides to enter the groove 11 located in the middle to ensure air pressure balance.

[0048] It is worth mentioning that a first strip groove is horizontally opened in the middle of the inner arc surface of the rubber pad 33, and a plurality of evenly distributed second strip grooves 36 are longitudinally opened on the inner arc surface of the rubber pad 33. The arrangement of the first strip groove and the second strip groove 36 enables the hollow rod 31 to increase the air flow channel at the periphery of the optical unit 14 and the electrical unit 13 when the air is extracted, thereby facilitating the improvement of the heat dissipation effect of the optical unit 14 and the electrical unit 13.

The fan 21 is operated to exhaust air, so that the hollow plate 2 forms a negative pressure, and the third channel 17 and the second channel 16 form a negative pressure, so that a ventilation duct is formed through the through holes on the sleeve 3, the hollow rod 31 and the clamping block 32, so that the heat generated by the surface of the optical unit 14 and the electric unit 13 during operation can be taken away, thereby achieving the effect of auxiliary heat dissipation, and the setting of the first channel 15 allows the air in the grooves 11 on both sides to enter the groove 11 located in the middle to ensure air pressure balance.
