[0031] Based on the above structure, by setting up the wire clamping mechanism 4, the cables coming out of the wire trough 2 can be clamped, so that multiple cables are gathered together for sorting and limiting, so that the direction of the connecting wires is not messy and complicated, which is convenient for maintenance personnel to quickly find the faulty switch 7 at a later time, and improve the efficiency of locating the faulty switch 7; at the same time, an auxiliary connection structure and a supporting foot 6 are set, so that adjacent chassis 1 can be spliced into a whole, reducing the floor space of the chassis 1.
[0032] As an example, the line clamping mechanism 4 may include a line collection plate 41 and a buckle plate 42; the line collection plate 41 is provided with a slider 411 matching the guide rail groove 3, the guide rail groove 3 can limit the slider 411, and the slider 411 can move along the length direction of the guide rail groove 3, and the line collection plate 41 is also provided with a fixing groove 412 and a guide rod 413 matching the buckle plate 42.
[0033] The line collection plate 41 may include a central connecting plate 414, a first receiving plate 415 and a second receiving plate 416; the first receiving plate 415 and the second receiving plate 416 are respectively arranged at two sides of the central connecting plate 414, and the first receiving plate 415 and the second receiving plate 416 are respectively connected to the central connecting plate 414 in an arc transition;
[0034] Furthermore, the first receiving plate 415 and the second receiving plate 416 are in the same vertical plane, and the first receiving plate 415 or the second receiving plate 416 and the central connecting plate 414 are not in the same vertical plane.
[0035] Based on the above structure, a height difference is set between the first receiving plate 415 or the second receiving plate 416 and the center connecting plate 414 to reserve accommodation space for the cables to be fixed. After the buckle plate 42 is fixed to the cable collection plate 41, the overall volume is reduced, making the overall structure more compact after the cables are fixed.
[0036] As an example, the guide rod 413 is disposed on the arc-shaped transition edge between the first receiving plate 415 or the second receiving plate 416 and the center connecting plate 414 , at least two guide rods 413 are provided, and the fixing groove 412 can be disposed at the center position between the two guide rods 413 .

[0042] Based on the above structure, an L-shaped clamping structure is formed by setting a first fixing plate 421 and a second fixing plate 422 perpendicular to each other. When the cable is inserted into the buckle plate 42, its upper end surface is limited by the first fixing plate 421, and the lower end is limited by the arc-shaped transition end. The front and rear rear plates are respectively limited by the second fixing plate 422 and the receiving plate in contact therewith, so that the cable is finally fixed.
[0043] As an example, an armrest 427 may be provided on the second fixing plate 422, and the buckle plate 42 may be quickly taken out by the armrest 427.
[0044] As an example, a soft pad 428 may be provided on the first receiving plate 415 or the second receiving plate 416. The soft pad 428 increases the fit between the cable collection plate 41 and the cables.
[0045] As an example, the auxiliary connection mechanism 5 is arranged at the top position of the chassis 1 , and the supporting feet 6 are arranged at the bottom position of the chassis 1 , and the number of the auxiliary connection mechanisms 5 is the same as the number of the supporting feet 6 .
[0046] The auxiliary connecting mechanism 5 may include a first support seat 51, a first support column 52 and a rubber sleeve 53; the first support column 52 is arranged at the center position of the first support column 52, a card slot 54 is arranged on the first support column 52, and a card strip 55 matching the card slot 54 is arranged in the rubber sleeve 53; the rubber sleeve 53 is fixed by inserting the card strip 55 into the card slot 54.

[0048] Based on the above structure, by setting a through docking hole 63 and a supporting column matching it, the first supporting column 52 can be used to insert it into the docking hole 63. In this way, two chassis 1 can be stacked together. When people want to use multiple switch 7 work groups, the floor space of the chassis 1 can be reduced. In addition, the rubber sleeve 53 is put on the connecting column to increase the stability of the contact between the connecting column and the docking hole 63.
