[0028] As described above, due to the adoption of the sealing structure of the buried cable branch box, the beneficial effects of the present application are as follows:

Meanwhile, the cooperation between the two movable components and the clamping component can also be compatible with cables of different diameters, without the need for additional plugging, so that the adaptability of the interface is improved.
[0030] 2. The device can not only form a preliminary seal, but also flexibly clamp the cable through the positioning component, avoiding stress concentration caused by rigid fixation of the cable, thereby avoiding the problem of deformation of the sealing structure. When in use, the sealing cover is opened, the cable is passed through the flat-topped conical tube, passes through the four positioning rods, the end of the positioning rod close to the cable is a ball, which facilitates the cable to pass through, and under the action of the elastic force, a flexible support is formed on the cable. Then, the cable passes through the multiple arc-shaped pieces and contacts the inner surface of the arc-shaped piece, extruding the elastic sealing ring.

[0031] 3.

The connecting rods on the two groups of sliding blocks move simultaneously under the action of the arc-shaped grooves on both sides, causing the two groups of sliding blocks to expand. The cable can pass between the elastic blocks connected to the two groups of sliding blocks. When the push rod is loosened, the rotating ring starts to rotate under the contraction of the push block connected to the rotating ring and the compression spring. At the same time, the arc-shaped grooves on the annular plate move with the adapted connecting rods, causing the two groups of sliding blocks to start to contract. At the same time, the elastic blocks on the sliding blocks flexibly clamp the cable, sealing the cable between the two sliding grooves, thereby forming a secondary seal.
[0032] 4. The device can be used to support the cable through the support component, avoiding the cable from falling down and preventing the bending of the cable connection from causing the cable to age and crack. The device can also provide different directions of "support" for the cable, adjust the direction of the support according to the direction of the cable, and improve the applicability of the device. When the cable goes upwards, the two L-shaped supports are located on the upper side, and the guide wheels are located on the upper side of the cable, providing a downward force for the cable, so that the bending part of the cable increases in angle, the bending part is gentle, and the cable cracking is avoided. When the cable goes downwards, the two L-shaped supports are located on the lower side, and the guide wheels are located on the lower side of the cable, providing support for the cable to prevent the cable from falling down and avoid aging at the bending part.

[0064] The conventional cable branch box usually connects the sealing cover plate to the box body by means of a hinge, so that the gap between the box body and the sealing cover plate will cause water or soil to seep into the branch box, and it is not convenient to open and maintain;
[0065] Then, as shown in Figure 2 , in order to seal the branch box body 10, straight plates 11 are fixed on both side walls in the inner cavity of the branch box body 10, two symmetrical Z-shaped blocks 12 are rotationally connected between the two side walls in the inner cavity of the branch box body 10, the horizontal part of one side of the Z-shaped block 12 cooperates with the straight plate 11 and can be tightly attached to the lower side of the straight plate 11, one of the Z-shaped blocks 12 has a sealing plate one 13 fixed on one side thereof, the horizontal part of the Z-shaped block 12 is fixedly connected with the sealing plate one 13, and the other Z-shaped block 12 has a sealing plate two 14 fixed on the lower side of the horizontal part thereof, matched with the sealing plate one 13, and the sealing plate two 14 is located on the lower side of the sealing plate one 13;
[0066] When opened, the Z-shaped block 12 connected with the sealing plate one 13 is first rotated, and then the Z-shaped block 12 connected with the sealing plate two 14 is rotated, so that the sealing plate one 13 and the sealing plate two 14 can both be in a vertical state, facilitating the maintenance of the components in the inner cavity of the branch box body 10;
[0067] The horizontal part of the Z-shaped block 12 is inlaid with a silica gel piece matched with the straight plate 11, and one side of the sealing plate two 14 is inlaid with a silica gel piece matched with the sealing plate one 13;
[0068] When sealing, first make the sealing plate two 14 rotate to the horizontal state, and then make the sealing plate one 13 rotate to the horizontal state, the sealing plate one 13 is pressed on the silica gel sheet of the sealing plate two 14, so that the gap between the sealing plate one 13 and the sealing plate two 14 is blocked, the silica gel sheet of the horizontal part of the Z-shaped block 12 is pressed against the straight plate 11 on the same side, and the gap is blocked, the sealing effect of the lifting device is improved.
[0069] Next, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the sealing part 20 includes a U-shaped frame 21 fixed on the side wall of the inner cavity of the branch box 10, both vertical parts of the U-shaped frame 21 are fixed with fixed pipes 22, the outer surfaces of the two fixed pipes 22 are fixed with movable parts 24, the movable parts 24 are located on the side of the outer surfaces of the two fixed pipes 22 close to each other, a push rod 26 is fixed between the two movable parts 24, the push rod 26 is used to control the two movable parts 24 at the same time, and the outer surfaces of the two fixed pipes 22 are fixedly connected with clamping parts 25, the clamping parts 25 are located between the two movable parts 24.
[0070] Among them, the outer surface of the fixed pipe 22 away from the connecting assembly 15 is fixed with a positioning part 23, the positioning part 23 is used to position the cable and form a preliminary seal at the same time, and the outer surface of the fixed pipe 22 close to the connecting assembly 15 is fixed with a supporting part 27, the supporting part 27 is used to support the cable to prevent the cable from cracking and breaking due to gravity or bending force.
[0071] Next, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the positioning part 23 includes a mounting pipe 231 fixed on the outer surface of the fixed pipe 22, an annular gasket 232 is fixed in the inner cavity of the mounting pipe 231, a plurality of annular arrays of positioning rods 235 are rotatably installed in the inner cavity of the mounting pipe 231 through torsion spring connectors, a plurality of annular arrays of arc-shaped sheets 234 are rotatably installed in the inner cavity of the mounting pipe 231 through torsion spring connectors, the torsion spring connector includes a U-shaped plate fixedly connected with the inner cavity of the mounting pipe 231, a rotating shaft is rotatably installed between the two vertical parts of the U-shaped plate, a connecting plate connected with the U-shaped plate through a torsion spring is fixed on the rotating shaft, the connecting plate of the torsion spring connector connected with the arc-shaped sheet 234 is fixedly connected on the outer surface of the arc-shaped sheet 234, and the connecting plate of the torsion spring connector connected with the positioning rod 235 is fixedly connected on one end of the positioning rod 235, so that the arc-shaped sheet 234 and the positioning rod 235 can be contracted under the action of the torsion spring.
[0072] A plurality of positioning rods 235 can support the cable passing through the mounting pipe 231, avoid rigid fixing of the cable, reduce stress concentration at the interface, and prevent deformation of the sealing structure;
[0073] In addition, the outer surfaces of the plurality of arc-shaped pieces 234 are fixedly connected with an elastic sealing ring 233 which is adapted to the inner surface of the annular gasket 232. The inner surface of the elastic sealing ring 233 is flush with the inner surfaces of the arc-shaped pieces 234, and is in the shape of a flat-topped cone, so as to facilitate the cable to pass through. At the same time, due to the elasticity of the elastic sealing ring 233, the elastic sealing ring 233 is tightly attached to the surface of the cable, thereby forming a preliminary seal.
[0074] In addition, the length of the annular gasket 232 is greater than that of the elastic sealing ring 233, so that the elastic sealing ring 233 has a certain space for movement when being pressed;
[0075] In addition, one end of the mounting pipe 231 is fixedly connected with a connecting ring 236, and the outer surface of the connecting ring 236 is threadedly connected with a sealing cover 237. The sealing cover 237 can block the connecting ring 236 to form a seal. In the case that the sealing component 20 is not used, the sealing cover 237 is installed on the connecting ring 236. When it is needed to be used, the sealing cover 237 is removed, and a new cable can be installed, so that the sealing component 20 does not need to be opened when a new cable is installed, and the new cable can be quickly installed.
[0076] Then, the inner surface of the connecting ring 236 is provided with a waterproof groove 238 which can store water flowing into the inner cavity of the mounting pipe 231. The inner surface of the connecting ring 236 is fixedly connected with a flat-topped conical pipe 239 which is in the shape of a cone. The slope of the inner cavity of the flat-topped conical pipe 239 can block the penetrated water, so as to prevent the water from penetrating into the inner cavity of the mounting pipe 231.
[0077] Then, as shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 The movable component 24 includes a fixed ring 241 which is fixed to the fixed pipe 22.

[0078] The outer surface of the fixed ring 241 is rotatably connected with a rotating ring 247 which is fixedly connected with the annular plate 244. The inner surface of the rotating ring 247 is fixedly connected with a plurality of push blocks 246 which are adapted to the compression springs 242. The push blocks 246 are fixedly connected between the inner cavities of the sliding grooves 243 and the compression springs 242. Rotating the rotating ring 247 can make the push blocks 246 pull the compression springs 242. The reverse tension on the compression springs 242 can make the rotating ring 247 rotate in the opposite direction of the pulling, so as to make the annular plate 244 also rotate.
[0079] Then, the outer surface of the rotating ring 247 is fixed with a straight block 248, which is fixedly connected with the push rod 26. The straight blocks 248 on the two movable components 24 are fixedly connected with the push rod 26, so that the push rod 26 can control the rotation of the two rotating rings 247 at the same time.
[0080] Further, as shown in Figure 9 - Figure 11 , the clamping component 25 includes two annular blocks 251 fixedly connected with the fixed tubes 22. The two annular blocks 251 are fixed on the outer surfaces of the two fixed tubes 22, and are rotatably connected with the annular plates 244. The rotation of the annular plates 244 does not affect the annular blocks 251. A plurality of annular arrays of sliding grooves 252 are formed on the two annular blocks 251. The number of the sliding grooves 252 is twice the number of the arc-shaped grooves 245. The arc-shaped grooves 245 on the two annular plates 244 correspond to the sliding grooves 252 on the annular blocks 251 one by one. That is, the arc-shaped grooves 245 on the two annular plates 244 are different in angle, so that the arc-shaped grooves 245 on the annular plates 244 correspond to the sliding grooves 252 on the annular blocks 251 at intervals. The two annular blocks 251 are fixedly connected with an annular sealing plate 253.
[0081] Then, a group of annular arrays of sliding blocks 254 are slidably installed on the sides of the two annular blocks 251 close to each other. The sliding blocks 254 on the two sides are slidably connected. A connecting rod 255 adapted to the sliding grooves 252 on the two sides is fixedly penetrated through the plurality of sliding blocks 254 in the same group. The plurality of connecting rods 255 on the same side are located in the inner cavities of the sliding grooves 252 on the two annular blocks 251 at intervals. The plurality of connecting rods 255 on the same side are adapted to the arc-shaped grooves 245 on the annular plates 244. The plurality of connecting rods 255 on the same side are located in the inner cavities of the arc-shaped grooves 245 away from the side. The plurality of connecting rods 255 close to the support component 27 are located in the inner cavities of the arc-shaped grooves 245 close to the positioning component 23. The plurality of connecting rods 255 close to the positioning component 23 are located in the inner cavities of the arc-shaped grooves 245 close to the support component 27. The sides of the plurality of sliding blocks 254 on the same side close to the center of the sliding grooves 252 are fixedly provided with elastic blocks 256. The elastic blocks 256 are elastic and can be stretched in the compressed state.
[0082] As shown in Figure 12 and Figure 13 , the rotation of the two movable components 24 causes the two groups of sliding blocks 254 to move along the sliding grooves 252 under the action of the connecting rods 255. The two groups of sliding blocks 254 are designed in a split type, which clamps and seals the connection between the two annular blocks 251.

[0086] Then, two ring-shaped arrays of clamping blocks 276 are fixed on the outer surface of the moving tube 275, and a limiting assembly 277 for limiting the movement trajectory of the clamping blocks 276 is fixed on one side of the ring block 271;
[0087] As shown in the drawings, Figure 18 the limiting assembly 277 comprises a limiting ring plate 2771 fixedly connected with the ring block 271, two clamping grooves 2772 adapted to the clamping blocks 276 are formed in the inner surface of the limiting ring plate 2771, the clamping blocks 276 can be clamped in the inner cavity of the clamping grooves 2772, so as to fix the connecting springs 273, a limiting tube 2773 is fixed on the outer surface of the limiting ring plate 2771, the distance between the limiting tube 2773 and the moving tube 275 is just adapted to the thickness of the clamping blocks 276, an annular blocking strip 2774 is fixed on the inner surface of the limiting tube 2773, the annular blocking strip 2774 is tightly attached to the surface of the moving tube 275, so that the clamping blocks 276 can only move to the position tightly attached to the annular blocking strip 2774, thereby limiting the movement distance of the moving tube 275, facilitating the control of the rotation of the moving tube 275, and ensuring the stability of the moving tube 275;
[0088] Then, a rotating block 278 is fixed on the outer surface of the moving tube 275, L-shaped supports 279 are rotatably connected with the rotating block 278 on both sides through torsional springs, the L-shaped supports 279 have a certain turning force under the action of the torsional springs, a guide wheel 280 is rotatably installed at the ends of the two L-shaped supports 279 away from the rotating block 278, and the guide wheel 280 is used for guiding the cable;
[0089] As Figure 19 and Figure 20As shown, by rotating the moving pipe 275, the L-shaped support 279 has two states, one is that the cable is upward, the two L-shaped supports 279 are located on the upper side, the guide wheels 280 are located on the upper side of the cable, the cable is provided with a force to the lower side, so that the angle of the cable bending part is increased, the bending part is flat, and the cable cracking condition is avoided, and the other is that the cable is downward, the two L-shaped supports 279 are located on the lower side, the guide wheels 280 are located on the lower side of the cable, the cable is provided with support, the cable is prevented from falling, and the bending part is prevented from aging.
[0090] It should be noted that the connecting assembly 15, the elastic sealing ring 233, the sealing cover 237 and the guide wheel 280 in the application are all prior art, and the installation mode and control method thereof also belong to conventional design, which will not be described in detail.
[0091] The working principle of the application is that: the device is a buried cable branch box sealing structure, the mutual cooperation between the positioning component 23, the movable component 24 and the clamping component 25 can form double-layer sealing at the interface, avoid the problem of single sealing structure, and the mutual cooperation between the two movable components 24 and the clamping component 25 can also be compatible with cables of different diameters, so that the adaptability of the interface is improved.
[0092] The positioning component 23 not only forms preliminary sealing, but also flexibly clamps the cable, avoids stress concentration caused by rigid fixation of the cable, and avoids the problem of deformation of the sealing structure.
[0093] In use, the sealing cover 237 is opened, the cable passes through the flat-topped conical pipe 239, passes through the four positioning rods 235, the end of the positioning rod 235 close to the cable is a ball, which facilitates the cable to pass through, and under the action of the elasticity, the cable is flexibly supported, then the cable passes through the multiple arc-shaped pieces 234 and contacts the inner surfaces of the arc-shaped pieces 234, extrudes the elastic sealing ring 233, and at the same time that the cable passes through the elastic sealing ring 233, the elastic sealing ring 233 can be tightly attached to the surface of the cable to form preliminary sealing, and then the cable passes through the inner cavity of the fixed pipe 22.
[0094] The cable contacts the elastic block 256 after passing through the fixed pipe 22, at this time, by pushing the push rod 26, the straight blocks 248 on the two movable components 24 rotate with the rotating ring 247, so that the annular plate 244 fixedly connected with the rotating ring 247 rotates, and the connecting rod 255 fixedly connected with the sliding block 254 moves in the inner cavity of the sliding groove 252 under the action of the arc-shaped groove 245, so that the connecting rod 255 on the two groups of sliding blocks 254 moves at the same time under the action of the arc-shaped groove 245 on the two sides, the two groups of sliding blocks 254 expand, and the cable can pass through between the elastic blocks 256 connected with the two groups of sliding blocks 254.
[0095] After the cable is pulled out from the other fixed tube 22, the push rod 26 is loosened, the rotating ring 247 starts to rotate back under the contraction of the push block 246 connected by the rotating ring 247 and the compression spring 242, and the arc-shaped slot 245 on the annular plate 244 moves with the adapted connecting rod 255, so that the two groups of sliding blocks 254 start to contract, and the elastic blocks 256 on the sliding blocks 254 flexibly clamp the cable. Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the cable is sealed between the two sliding grooves 252, thereby forming a secondary seal.
[0096] Through the expansion and contraction of the two groups of sliding blocks 254, the sliding blocks 254 and the connected elastic blocks 256 can adapt to cables of different diameters and form seals on cables of different diameters, thereby improving the applicability of the device.
[0097] The support component 27 can be used to support the cable, avoid the cable from falling, prevent the bending of the cable connection from causing the cable to age and crack, and also provide different directions of "support" for the cable, adjust the direction of support according to the direction of the cable, and improve the applicability of the device.
[0098] After the cable is pulled out from the fixed tube 22, it passes through the groove on the guide wheel 280, and then connects the elbow-shaped cable connector with the interface on the clamping component 25.
[0099] By pulling the moving tube 275, the two clamping blocks 276 are pulled out from the two clamping grooves 2772, then the moving tube 275 is rotated by one hundred and eighty degrees, so that the two L-shaped supports 279 are rotated by one hundred and eighty degrees and located at the symmetric position of the initial position, then under the action of the connecting spring 273, the moving tube 275 is retracted, and the two clamping blocks 276 enter the two clamping grooves 2772, preventing the moving tube 275 from rotating.
[0100] As shown in Figure 19 and Figure 20 By rotating the moving tube 275, the L-shaped supports 279 have two states, one is that the cable goes up, the two L-shaped supports 279 are located on the upper side, and the guide wheel 280 is located on the upper side of the cable, providing a downward force for the cable, so that the bending part of the cable increases in angle and the bending part is flat, avoiding the cracking of the cable, and the other is that the cable goes down, the two L-shaped supports 279 are located on the lower side, and the guide wheel 280 is located on the lower side of the cable, providing support for the cable to prevent the cable from falling and avoid aging of the bending part.
[0101] The above merely describes preferred specific embodiments of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art can make equivalent replacements or changes to the sealing structure of the buried cable branch box and the inventive concept of the present application within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, and all should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
