[0034] The specific implementation methods of the present application will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a network cable 100 with a dehumidification function, including an outer sheath 10 , a central axis 20 , a plurality of brackets 30 , and a plurality of sliding components 40 .

[0036] The outer sheath 10 defines a housing cavity 101, within which the central shaft 20 is rotatably mounted. The central shaft 20 is coaxial with the outer sheath 10, with its axis oriented in the same direction as the extension of the dehumidifying network cable 100. Multiple brackets 30 are equally spaced around the outer circumference of the central shaft 20, forming a movable cavity 33 between any two adjacent brackets 30. The brackets 30 extend parallel to the radial direction of the central shaft 20, with one end of each bracket connected to the inner wall of the outer sheath 10.

[0037] Each active cavity 33 is equipped with a sliding assembly 40. The sliding assembly 40 includes a sliding frame 41, a wire core 42, and an opening and closing structure 43. The sliding frame 41 is slidably disposed within the active cavity 33 along the radial direction of the central axis 20. A wire cavity 413 is defined within the sliding frame 41, and the wire core 42 is disposed within the wire cavity 413. A first air hole 412 is defined at one end of the sliding frame 41, proximal to the outer sheath 10, along the radial direction of the central axis 20. The first air hole 412 communicates with the wire cavity 413. The opening and closing structure 43 is spaced apart from the outer sheath 10 along the radial direction of the central axis 20, forming a first air cavity 434 therebetween. The first air cavity 434 allows for the circulation of hot air. Furthermore, a second air cavity 435, communicating with the first air hole 412, is formed between the opening and closing structure 43 and the sliding frame 41. A support cavity 34 is defined between any adjacent brackets 30 and sliding brackets 41 . The bracket 30 is provided with a second air hole 310 . The second air hole 310 communicates with the support cavity 34 and the second air cavity 435 .

[0038] When the central shaft 20 rotates, the central shaft 20 can push the sliding frame 41 to slide along the radial direction of the central shaft 20 . Based on the sliding action of the sliding frame 41 , the sliding frame 41 can control the air passage between the first air cavity 434 and the second air cavity 435 .

[0039] In this embodiment, the sliding frame 41 has at least a first state and a second state. When the central shaft 20 rotates, the central shaft 20 can abut against the sliding frame 41 to move radially along the central shaft 20, thereby switching the sliding frame 41 between the first and second states. When the sliding frame 41 is in the first state, the first air cavity 434 and the second air cavity 435 are in air communication. When the sliding frame 41 is in the second state, the air communication between the first air cavity 434 and the second air cavity 435 is disconnected.

[0040] Thus, in the dehumidification network cable 100 of the present application, the rotation of the central shaft 20 drives the sliding frame 41 to slide radially along the central shaft 20 within the active cavity 33, allowing the outer diameter of the inner sheath formed by the multiple sliding assemblies 40 to be adjusted to suit different usage requirements. Furthermore, as the sliding frame 41 slides radially along the central shaft 20, it controls the air flow between the first air cavity 434 and the second air cavity 435. When dehumidification of the network cable is required, the central shaft 20 is rotated to connect the first air cavity 434 and the second air cavity 435. Hot air is injected from the outside into the first air cavity 434, which then enters the cable cavity 413 through the first air hole 412, thereby dehumidifying the interior of the network cable and ensuring stable operation. Simultaneously, some air can enter the support cavity 34 through the second air hole 310, where it dehumidifies the outer wall of the sliding frame 41 and the area between the sliding frame 41 and the central shaft 20. After dehumidification is completed, the central shaft 20 is rotated again so that the first air cavity 434 and the second air cavity 435 are no longer in a connected state, and the first air hole 412 is closed through the opening and closing structure 43, thereby ensuring the waterproof sealing performance and electromagnetic shielding performance of the sliding frame 41 and protecting the performance of the network cable.

[0041] Please combine again Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment, the central shaft 20 is a cylindrical structure, and a plurality of receiving grooves 21 are defined on its outer circumference. The plurality of receiving grooves 21 are correspondingly disposed to the plurality of sliding assemblies 40. Along the radial direction of the central shaft 20, each sliding frame 41 has a protruding abutment 411 at one end proximate to the central shaft 20. The abutment 411 is located approximately midway between the end of the sliding frame 41 proximate to the central shaft 20.

[0042] Each group of receiving slots 21 includes multiple receiving slots 21 for receiving the abutting portions 411. The receiving slots 21 of each group are spaced apart along the rotational direction of the central shaft 20. The central shaft 20 is made of a material such as rubber to ensure that it can bend with the network cable. The central shaft 20 also has a certain structural strength to ensure that the walls of the receiving slots 21 of the central shaft 20 can abut against the abutting portions 411, exerting force on the abutting portions 411 to push the sliding frame 41 to move.

[0043] In this embodiment, there are four brackets 30, which are spaced apart in sequence along the rotation direction of the central axis 20, and the angle between any two adjacent brackets 30 is 90°. There are four abutting portions 411, and the angle between any two adjacent abutting portions 411 is also 90°.

[0044] It is understandable that in other embodiments, the number of sliding components 40 may also be set to other numbers, and the specific number may be selected according to actual design requirements.

[0045] Along the radial direction of the central shaft 20, the receiving groove 21 is formed by being recessed inward from the outer circumference of the central shaft 20. The receiving groove 21 is used to accommodate the abutting portion 411, and the abutting portion 411 can abut against the bottom wall of the receiving groove 21, thereby clamping the sliding frame 41 between the elastic structure 44 and the central shaft 20 to achieve radial positioning of the sliding frame 41. Along the rotation direction of the central shaft 20, the individual receiving grooves 21 in the same group are spaced apart, and the groove depth of each receiving groove 21 increases linearly. The groove depths of each receiving groove 21 are different, so that when the abutting portion 411 is located in different receiving grooves 21, the distance between the sliding frame 41 and the central shaft 20 along the radial direction of the central shaft 20 is different, thereby allowing the elastic structure 44 abutted by the sliding frame 41 to undergo different degrees of elastic deformation.

[0046] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the abutting portion 411 is substantially semicircular, and the shape of the receiving groove 21 matches the shape of the abutting portion 411. This ensures that when the abutting portion 411 is located in the receiving groove 21, the abutting portion 411 stably limits the position of the sliding frame 41, thereby preventing the sliding frame 41 from shaking. Furthermore, the cross-sectional shape of the abutting portion 411 is semicircular, and the shape of the receiving groove 21 matches the shape of the abutting portion 411. The curved surface guides the abutting portion 411 in and out of the receiving groove 21, thereby ensuring that the abutting portion 411 can be easily removed from the receiving groove 21.

[0047] The cross-sectional shape of the sliding frame 41 is roughly fan-shaped. Along the radial direction of the central shaft 20, the shape of the end face of the sliding frame 41 close to the central shaft 20 is adapted to the outer peripheral surface of the central shaft 20 to ensure that when the central shaft 20 rotates until the supporting portion 411 abuts against the bottom wall of different accommodating grooves 21 and the sliding frame 41 slides, the sliding frame 41 can slide along the radial direction of the central shaft 20.

[0048] Along the radial direction of the central axis 20 , the shape of the end surface of the sliding frame 41 away from the central axis 20 is adapted to the shape of the inner circumferential surface of the outer sheath 10 , and multiple micropores are evenly spaced on the end surface of the sliding frame 41 away from the central axis 20 .

[0049] The core 42 includes two conductors 421 and an insulating layer 422. The conductors 421 are made of a metal material such as copper or aluminum, and the insulating layer 422 is made of an insulating material such as polyethylene. Along the radial direction of the central axis 20, the opposing sides of the core 42 respectively abut against the inner walls of the sliding frame 41 on opposite sides, thereby limiting the radial position of the core 42 relative to the central axis 20. Furthermore, the sliding frame 41 is filled with a filler, such as a filling rope. Along the rotational direction of the central axis 20, the filler fills the space between the core 42 and the inner walls of the sliding frame 41 on opposite sides, thereby limiting the position of the core 42 relative to the rotational direction of the central axis 20 and ensuring that the core 42 does not wobble within the sliding frame 41.

[0050] In addition, the sliding frame 41 is made of metal, which can improve the anti-electromagnetic interference capability of the wire core 42 located in the sliding frame 41 .

[0051] Please combine again Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, the bracket 30 is disposed radially along the central shaft 20 and includes a first section 31 and a second section 32. One end of the first section 31 is connected to the inner wall of the outer sheath 10, and one end of the second section 32 is connected to the end of the first section 31 away from the outer sheath 10. The other end of the second section 32 can contact the outer surface of the central shaft 20. The second section 32 limits the position of the central shaft 20, thereby preventing the central shaft 20 from shifting during rotation. The width of the second section 32 is smaller than that of the first section 31, and the second section 32 is connected approximately midway between the end of the first section 31 away from the outer sheath 10. Along the rotational direction of the central shaft 20, the second section 32 is spaced apart from the sliding frame 41, forming the aforementioned support cavity 34 therebetween.

[0052] The dehumidifying network cable 100 also includes multiple support assemblies 50, one of which is located within each support cavity 34. One end of each support assembly 50 is elastically supported by the sliding frame 41, and the other end is elastically connected to the bracket 30. The bracket 30 defines a second air hole 310, through which the first air cavity 434 communicates with the support cavity 34. The support assembly 50 can open or close the second air hole 310.

[0053] The support assembly 50 includes a support member 51 and a third elastic member 52. The support member 51 is positioned within the support cavity 34 and is configured to abut against the sidewall of the sliding frame 41. The third elastic member 52 is elastically connected between the support member 51 and the second section 32. Guide protrusions 320 are provided on opposite sides of the second section 32 along the rotational direction of the central axis 20. The guide protrusions 320 extend perpendicularly to the direction of extension of the second section 32. The third elastic member 52 is a compression spring and is sleeved around the outer periphery of the guide protrusions 320 to guide the deformation path of the third elastic member 52. One end of the third elastic member 52 is elastically connected to the second section 32, and the other end is elastically connected to the side of the support member 51 away from the sliding frame 41 against which it abuts. In this way, when the sliding frame 41 moves toward the side away from the central axis 20, the distance between the sliding frame 41 and the second section 32 increases, and the third elastic member 52 returns to its original position to generate elastic force, thereby pushing the support member 51 toward the sliding frame 41, ensuring that the support member 51 always rests against the side wall of the sliding frame 41 during the movement of the sliding frame 41, thereby ensuring the stability of the sliding frame 41 during the sliding process.

[0054] In this embodiment, a second air hole 310 is opened on the first section 31. When the sliding frame 41 is in the first state, the first end of the second air hole 310 is connected to the first air cavity 434, and the second end of the second air hole 310 is connected to the support cavity 34. When the support member 51 moves toward the side away from the second section 32, the support member 51 can close the opening of the second air hole 310 at the second end.

[0055] Specifically, the second air hole 310 is arranged in a generally L-shaped configuration, with a first end of the second air hole 310 located on the sidewall of the first section 31, and a second end of the second air hole 310 located on the end surface of the first section 31 near the second section 32. When the sliding frame 41 is in the first state, the sliding frame 41 and the opening and closing member 431 of the opening and closing structure 43 are spaced apart in the radial direction of the central axis 20, forming a second air cavity 435 between the sliding frame 41 and the opening and closing member 431. The first air cavity 434 communicates with the second air cavity 435 via the air passage 4150. At this time, the first end of the second air hole 310 communicates with the second air cavity 435, thereby establishing communication between the second air hole 310 and the first air cavity 434 via the second air cavity 435 and the air passage 4150. This allows the hot air in the first air cavity 434 to flow toward the first end of the second air hole 310, and then enter the support cavity 34 from the second end of the second air hole 310.

[0056] The support member 51 includes a support portion 511 and two extension portions 512. The support portion 511 extends parallel to the direction of extension of the second section 32. The two extension portions 512 are integrally formed at opposite ends of the support portion 511. One side of the support portion 511 abuts against the sidewall of the sliding frame 41. The end of the third elastic member 52, away from the second section 32, is connected to the other side of the support portion 511.

[0057] The extension portion 512 includes a first extension section 5121, a second extension section 5122, and a third extension section 5123, which are connected in sequence. The first extension section 5121 extends perpendicularly to the direction of extension of the support portion 511, and the end of the first extension section 5121 away from the second extension section 5122 is connected to the support portion 511. The second extension section 5122 extends parallel to the direction of extension of the support portion 511, and the third extension section 5123 extends perpendicularly to the direction of extension of the support portion 511. The third extension section 5123 of the upper extension portion 512 abuts against the end surface of the first section 31 near the second section 32, thereby sealing the opening at the second end of the second air hole 310.

[0058] The support portion 511 is provided with a plurality of first ventilation holes 5110, and the first extension 5121 is provided with second ventilation holes 51210. When the sliding frame 41 is in the first state, the third extension 5123 is located on the side of the second end of the second ventilation hole 310 near the second section 32. In this state, the third extension 5123 does not block the opening of the second end of the second ventilation hole 310. After exiting the second end of the second ventilation hole 310, the hot air flows through the second ventilation holes 51210 into the cavity between the two extensions 512, and then acts on the outer wall of the sliding frame 41 through the first ventilation holes 5110. Furthermore, some of the hot air flows through the second ventilation holes 51210 on the lower extension 512 into the area between the sliding frame 41 and the central axis 20, thereby transporting the hot air to various areas within the outer sheath 10.

[0059] When the sliding frame 41 switches from the first state to the second state, the elastic force of the third elastic member 52 causes the third extension section 5123 to slide toward a side away from the second section 32. When the sliding frame 41 is in the second state, the third extension section 5123 moves to the opening at the second end of the second air hole 310, thereby sealing the opening at the second end of the second air hole 310. This isolates the sliding frame 41 from both radial and circumferential directions, improves the waterproofness of the sliding frame 41, and prevents signal crosstalk between the wire cores 42 in adjacent sliding frames 41.

[0060] Furthermore, upon completion of the dehumidification operation, the central shaft 20 is rotated, causing the sliding frame 41 to switch from the first state to the second state. During this process, the sliding frame 41 moves radially away from the central shaft 20, gradually creating a gap between the sliding frame 41 and the first section 31, causing the sliding frame 41 to no longer block the opening at the first end of the second air hole 310. Furthermore, as the sliding frame 41 moves radially away from the central shaft 20, it gradually approaches the opening and closing member 431, gradually reducing the volume of the second air chamber 435. Some gas enters the first air chamber 434, while some enters the second air hole 310 through the opening at the first end of the second air hole 310, and then enters the support chamber 34 through the second air hole 310. This causes some air to flow back into the area between the sliding frame 41 and the central shaft 20, affecting the exhaust efficiency of the airflow and increasing the air pressure at the central shaft 20, affecting the stability of the internal structure. Therefore, in the process of the sliding frame 41 moving radially toward the side away from the central axis 20, through the cooperation of the support member 51 and the third elastic member 52, after the sliding frame 41 leaves its first state position, the support member 51 always presses against the side wall of the sliding frame 41, and the support member 51 always closes the opening of the second end of the second air hole 310, ensuring that the gas in the second air cavity 435 is discharged to the first air cavity 434, and then the wire can be discharged to the outside.

[0061] Please combine again Figures 1 to 5 In one embodiment, the sliding assembly 40 further includes an elastic structure 44. The elastic structure 44 includes a guide seat 441 and a first elastic member 442. The guide seat 441 extends in a direction parallel to the radial direction of the central axis 20. One end of the guide seat 441 is connected to the inner wall of the outer sheath 10, and the other end defines a guide groove 4410. The guide groove 4410 extends in a direction parallel to the radial direction of the central axis 20.

[0062] A sliding portion 45 is provided on one end of the sliding frame 41 close to the outer sheath 10. The sliding portion 45 includes a sliding main body 414 and two elastic protrusions 415. An air passage 4150 is provided on the elastic protrusion 415. The extending direction of the sliding main body 414 is parallel to the radial direction of the central axis 20, and one end of the sliding main body 414 is connected to the surface of the sliding frame 41 on the side away from the central axis 20. Along the rotation direction of the central axis 20, the two elastic protrusions 415 are respectively connected to opposite sides of the sliding main body 414. The opening and closing structure 43 includes two opening and closing parts 431. Along the rotation direction of the central axis 20, the two opening and closing parts 431 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the sliding main body 414, and both opening and closing parts 431 can rotate around the outer circumference of the central axis 20.

[0063] The end of the sliding body 414 away from the sliding frame 41 is slidably received in the guide groove 4410. The first elastic member 442 is located in the guide groove 4410. The first elastic member 442 is a compression spring. One end of the first elastic member 442 is elastically connected to the bottom wall of the guide groove 4410. The other end of the first elastic member 442 is elastically connected to the end of the sliding body 414 away from the sliding frame 41, thereby providing an elastic force for the sliding body 414 to move toward the central axis 20.

[0064] Thus, when the abutting portion 411 enters the receiving groove 21 with a smaller depth from the deeper receiving groove 21, the sliding frame 41 moves toward the side away from the central axis 20, and the sliding body 414 continues to compress the first elastic member 442. When the abutting portion 411 enters the receiving groove 21 with a larger depth from the smaller depth, the first elastic member 442 returns to its original position and applies an elastic force to the sliding body 414, thereby pushing the sliding frame 41 toward the central axis 20 through the sliding body 414 until the abutting portion 411 abuts against the bottom wall of the receiving groove 21.

[0065] Please combine again Figures 1 to 5 In one embodiment, when the sliding frame 41 is in the first state, the sliding frame 41 is spaced apart from the opening and closing member 431, and the first air cavity 434 communicates with the first air hole 412 via the air passage 4150. When the sliding frame 41 is in the second state, the sliding frame 41 abuts against the opening and closing member 431, and the opening and closing member 431 seals the first air hole 412. The first air cavity 434 is filled with a filter element. The filter element is a material with a filtering function, such as filter cloth, which can filter the hot air flow entering the first air cavity 434 to prevent impurities carried in the hot air flow from entering the wire cavity 413 through the first air hole 412 and affecting the operation of the wire core 42.

[0066] The opening and closing structure 43 also includes two sliding seats 432. Along the rotational direction of the central axis 20, the two sliding seats 432 are located on opposite sides of the guide seat 441. One end of the sliding seat 432 is connected to the first section 31 of the adjacent bracket 30, and the other end of the sliding seat 432 is spaced apart from the guide seat 441, with the first air cavity 434 located between the sliding seat 432 and the guide seat 441. Furthermore, along the radial direction of the central axis 20, the side of the sliding seat 432 away from the central axis 20 is connected to the outer sheath 10, so that the sliding seat 432 can cooperate with the bracket 30 to support the outer sheath 10, thereby improving the stability and uniformity of the support provided by the inner layer structure of the network cable located within the outer sheath 10.

[0067] The sliding seat 432 defines a sliding groove 4320. One end of the opening and closing member 431 is slidably received within the sliding groove 4320. The other end of the opening and closing member 431 is configured to abut against the sliding body 414 or the elastic protrusion 415. Along the radial direction of the central shaft 20, the sliding groove 4320 extends from the surface of the sliding seat 432 on the side away from the outer sheath 10 toward the outer sheath 10. Furthermore, along the rotational direction of the central shaft 20, the sliding groove 4320 extends from the end surface of the sliding seat 432 proximal to the guide seat 441 toward the side away from the guide seat 441, thereby forming a first groove wall P1 and a second groove wall P2 within the sliding groove 4320.

[0068] The first groove wall P1 is a curved surface, and its shape matches the shape of the outer sheath 10. The opening and closing member 431 can slide along the first groove wall P1, thereby guiding the opening and closing member 431 to slide along the rotational direction of the central axis 20. It is understood that one of the first groove wall P1 and the surface of the opening and closing member 431 on the side near the first groove wall P1 can be provided with a sliding protrusion, and the other can be provided with a sliding groove. The sliding protrusion slidably cooperates with the sliding groove, thereby ensuring that the opening and closing member 431 can slide relative to the first groove wall P1.

[0069] In addition, along the radial direction of the central axis 20, the surface of the opening and closing member 431 on the side close to the central axis 20 is coplanar with the surface of the sliding seat 432 on the side close to the central axis 20, so as to ensure that when the opening and closing member 431 presses against the surface of the sliding frame 41 to close the first air hole 412, the sliding seat 432 also presses against the surface of the sliding frame 41 to ensure that no gap is formed between the two.

[0070] In this embodiment, the opening and closing structure 43 also includes a second elastic member 433. The second elastic member 433 is a compression spring, and the second elastic member 433 is arranged along the rotation direction of the central axis 20. One end of the second elastic member 433 is elastically connected to the second groove wall P2, and the other end of the second elastic member 433 is elastically connected to the end of the opening and closing member 431 away from the guide seat 441, which is used to provide an elastic force for the opening and closing member 431 to move toward the sliding main body 414. In this way, when the sliding portion 45 abuts the two opening and closing members 431 through the elastic protrusion 415 and causes them to move away from each other, the opening and closing member 431 continues to compress the second elastic member 433. Subsequently, when the sliding portion 45 no longer abuts the opening and closing members 431 through the elastic protrusion 415, the second elastic member 433 returns to its original position and pushes the opening and closing member 431 toward the guide seat 441 until it abuts against the surface of the guide seat 441.

[0071] It is understood that in other embodiments, the opening and closing structure 43 may not be provided with the second elastic member 433, and the opening and closing structure 43 includes an opening and closing member 431 and a sliding seat 432. The installation position of the sliding seat 432 is the same as described above. The opening and closing member 431 is made of a material such as compressible silicone, and the sliding seat 432 is provided with a compression groove. The opening and closing member 431 is partially compressibly accommodated in the compression groove to limit the compression path of the opening and closing member 431 through the compression groove. One end of the opening and closing member 431 is exposed in the compression groove and is used to abut the sliding main body 414 or the elastic protrusion 415, thereby realizing the air path between the first air hole 412 and the first air cavity 434.

[0072] Please combine again Figures 2 to 6 In one embodiment, along the rotational direction of the central shaft 20, the sliding body 414 is located approximately in the middle of the surface of the sliding frame 41 on the side closest to the outer sheath 10. Along the radial direction of the central shaft 20, the air passage 4150 extends through the elastic protrusion 415 from the side closest to the outer sheath 10 to the side closest to the sliding frame 41.

[0073] In this embodiment, the sliding seat 432 is made of an insulating material, and the opening and closing member 431 is made of a metal material. The portion of the sliding frame 41 corresponding to the first air hole 412 is abutted by the opening and closing member 431, thereby sealing the first air hole 412. Furthermore, because the opening and closing member 431 is made of a metal material, when sealing the first air hole 412, it not only ensures that the air path is disconnected but also provides electromagnetic shielding for the space surrounding the first air hole 412, thereby ensuring the electromagnetic shielding performance of the sliding frame 41.

[0074] The elastic protrusion 415 is made of an elastic material such as rubber, and has a substantially semicircular cross-section. A sealing portion 4310 is provided at one end of the opening and closing member 431, adjacent to the guide seat 441. The sealing portion 4310 is made of an elastic material such as rubber, and has a substantially isosceles trapezoidal cross-section. The sealing portion 4310 has a supporting surface P3 and two guide surfaces P4. The supporting surface P3 is parallel to the protruding direction of the sliding main body 414. The supporting surface P3 is used to support the surface of the elastic protrusion 415 or the sliding main body 414. Since the sealing portion 4310 is made of an elastic material such as rubber, when the supporting surface P3 is in contact with the surface of the sliding main body 414, a seal is formed between the supporting surface P3 and the sliding main body 414 to ensure the sealing and electromagnetic shielding properties of the space in which the sliding frame 41 is located. Along the protruding direction of the sliding body 414, two guide surfaces P4 are connected to the two ends of the abutting surface P3, and the two guide surfaces P4 are arranged at an angle relative to the abutting surface P3. The inclined guide surfaces P4 can guide the elastic protrusion 415 to pass over the area where the guide surfaces P4 are located, pushing the opening and closing member 431 to move away from the sliding body 414, thereby causing the abutting surface P3 to abut against the elastic protrusion 415. In addition, the sealing portion 4310 is made of an elastic material, which also facilitates the elastic protrusion 415 to pass over the sealing portion 4310.

[0075] It is worth noting that along the protruding direction of the sliding main body 414, sufficient space is left between the guide seat 441 and the opening and closing member 431 to accommodate the elastic protrusion 415 that passes over the sealing portion 4310, thereby preventing the elastic protrusion 415 from abutting against the guide seat 441 and restricting the sliding of the sliding main body 414.

[0076] In this embodiment, each set of receiving grooves 21 includes a first receiving groove 211 and a second receiving groove 212. Along the radial direction of the central axis 20, the depth of the first receiving groove 211 is greater than the depth of the second receiving groove 212. When the abutting portion 411 is located in the first receiving groove 211, the sliding frame 41 is in the first state. When the abutting portion 411 is located in the second receiving groove 212, the sliding frame 41 is in the second state.

[0077] When the abutting portion 411 is located in the first receiving groove 211 , the sidewall of the sliding frame 41 can abut against the side surfaces of the supporting member 51 and the first section 31 at the same time.

[0078] When the abutting portion 411 is located in the second receiving groove 212 , the first section 31 is spaced apart from the sliding frame 41 , and the support member 51 moves partially beyond the first section 31 under the action of the third elastic member 52 , so that the support member 51 continues to abut against the side wall of the sliding frame 41 .

[0079] During the process of the supporting portion 411 leaving the first accommodating groove 211 and entering the second accommodating groove 212, the central axis 20 will gradually push the sliding frame 41 to move along the radial direction of the central axis 20 toward the side away from the central axis 20. During this process, the gap between the two side walls of the sliding frame 41 and the two adjacent second sections 32 will gradually increase as the sliding frame 41 slides, and the third elastic member 52 in a compressed state will gradually reset, so that the third elastic member 52 pushes the support member 51 toward the sliding frame 41 and always resists the side wall of the sliding frame 41 to ensure the stability of the sliding frame 41 during the sliding process.

[0080] Furthermore, when the sliding frame 41 is in the first state, the elastic protrusion 415 abuts against the abutting surface P3, the sliding frame 41 and the opening and closing member 431 are spaced apart in the radial direction of the central axis 20, and a second air cavity 435 is formed between the sliding frame 41 and the opening and closing member 431. The first air cavity 434 is connected to the second air cavity 435 through the air channel 4150, and the hot air flows from the first air cavity 434 through the air channel 4150 into the second air cavity 435, and then enters the line cavity 413 through the first air hole 412.

[0081] When the sliding frame 41 is in the second state, the elastic protrusion 415 is located on the side of the opening and closing member 431 closest to the outer cover 10, and the abutment surface P3 abuts the surface of the sliding body 414, thereby creating a seal between the opening and closing member 431 and the sliding body 414. Furthermore, when the sliding frame 41 is in the second state, portions of the sliding seat 432 and the opening and closing member 431 abut against the surface of the sliding frame 41, completely covering the surface of the sliding frame 41.

[0082] In this embodiment, each group of receiving grooves 21 further includes a transition groove 213. The transition groove 213 is located between the first receiving groove 211 and the second receiving groove 212 of the same group. The transition groove 213 communicates with the adjacent first receiving groove 211 and the second receiving groove 212. When the abutting portion 411 moves from the first receiving groove 211 to the second receiving groove 212, the abutting portion 411 can move within the transition groove 213. This prevents the abutting portion 411 from abutting against the outer circumference of the central shaft 20 after being separated from the first receiving groove 211, thereby preventing the sliding frame 41 from being too tightly pressed against the opening and closing member 431.

[0083] The depth of the transition groove 213 is slightly smaller than that of the second receiving groove 212 , so as to form a certain slope at the connection between the transition groove 213 and the second receiving groove 212 to prevent the abutting portion 411 entering the second receiving groove 212 from leaving.

[0084] It is worth noting that the supporting portion 411 can be made of a material with a certain elasticity, such as rubber, so that the supporting portion 411 can be slightly squeezed and deformed to pass over the slope between the transition groove 213 and the second receiving groove 212 and enter the second receiving groove 212 .

[0085] In this embodiment, the bracket 30 is made of metal, which has a certain electromagnetic shielding function and can further improve the electromagnetic shielding protection capability of the wire cores 42 located in different sliding frames 41.

[0086] Furthermore, in other embodiments, each group of receiving slots 21 may include at least three receiving slots 21. When the abutting portion 411 is located in one of the three receiving slots 21, the abutting surface P3 abuts against the elastic protrusion 415, thereby connecting the first air cavity 434 with the second air cavity 435. When the abutting portion 411 is located in the other two of the three receiving slots 21, the abutting surface P3 abuts against the surface of the sliding body 414, disconnecting the first air cavity 434 from the first air hole 412. By varying the depths of the two receiving slots 21, the sliding frame 41 can have different radial dimensions in the central axis 20, thereby accommodating sliding frames 41 of different sizes. Furthermore, since the wire core 42 is constrained within the sliding frame 41, sliding frames 41 of different sizes can accommodate wire cores 42 of different sizes. This allows the cable to accommodate wire cores 42 of different sizes while maintaining the same size of the outer sheath 10, thereby improving the adaptability of the network cable.

[0087] Please combine again Figure 7 , and see Figures 1 to 2 In one embodiment, the outer sheath 10 includes a shielding layer 11 and an outer jacket 12, arranged from the inside out. The shielding layer 11 can be a structure with electromagnetic shielding capabilities, such as a woven metal mesh, while the outer jacket 12 can be made of a material such as vinyl chloride. The shielding layer 11 is a circular ring structure with a housing 101 formed therein. The elastic structure 44 is connected to the inner circumference of the shielding layer 11. The outer jacket 12 is disposed around the outer circumference of the shielding layer 11.

[0088] In other embodiments, the outer protective layer 10 further includes a water-blocking tape, which may be disposed between the shielding layer 11 and the outer jacket 12 to improve the waterproof capability of the outer protective layer 10 .

[0089] In this embodiment, the network cable 100 with a dehumidification function further includes two connecting ends 60, which are respectively connected to the two ends of the outer sheath 10 to enclose the accommodating cavity 101 and the wire cavity 413. In addition, each wire core 42 can be connected to other electronic devices through the two connecting ends 60 to achieve signal transmission.

[0090] The connecting end 60 is detachably connected to the outer sheath 10 so that when the network cable 100 with a dehumidification function needs to be dehumidified, the connecting end 60 can be removed to expose the central axis 20, and the network cable 100 with a dehumidification function can be straightened and the central axis 20 can be rotated to drive the sliding frame 41 to move.

[0091] Of course, in other embodiments, the network cable 100 with a dehumidification function may not include the two connecting ends 60, that is, the network cable 100 with a dehumidification function is a semi-finished product stored in a warehouse. Before connecting the two connecting ends 60, it can be dehumidified first to avoid it getting damp during storage and affecting subsequent work performance.

[0092] In other embodiments, a through-hole may be provided at the center of the central shaft 20, extending from the end surface of one end of the central shaft 20 to the end surface of the other end of the central shaft 20 along the extension direction of the central shaft 20. The through-hole allows a rotating shaft to pass through, so that after removing the connecting end portion 60, the rotating shaft is inserted into the through-hole, and the rotating shaft drives the central shaft 20 to rotate. For example, a compression spring may be provided on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft, with one end of the compression spring connected to the rotating shaft and the other end connected to a suction cup. The compression spring is compressed and placed together with the suction cup into the through-hole. Subsequently, the compression spring resets, causing the suction cup to adhere to the inner wall of the central shaft 20, thereby fixing the central shaft 20 relative to the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft then drives the central shaft 20 to rotate.

[0093] The specific embodiments of the present application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, those skilled in the art will appreciate that various modifications and substitutions may be made to the specific embodiments of the present application without departing from the scope of the present application. Such modifications and substitutions are within the scope of the present application.
