Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a cable product, and more particularly to an outdoor cable assembly. Background Technology

[0002] A cable is an electrical or signal transmission device, typically composed of several or groups of conductors encased in an insulating sheath. In outdoor applications, cables are used to connect power sources and equipment. Outdoor terrain presents many limitations, so outdoor cables are generally longer, often starting at tens of meters. Such long cables need to be wound up during storage; disorderly stacking easily leads to tangling. However, manually winding cables is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also requires specific winding techniques. Therefore, cable winders have emerged on the market. Cable winders generally consist of a base and a rotating drum mounted on the base, which can be driven by a motor or manually. However, current cable winders only provide winding functionality and do not correct the posture of twisted or bent cables. Furthermore, they are generally heavy and bulky. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This utility model provides an outdoor cable assembly, which solves the problem that existing technologies do not have a posture correction effect on cables that have been twisted or bent.

[0004] The above-mentioned technical problems of this utility model are mainly solved by the following technical solution: an outdoor cable assembly, including a cable body, characterized in that: it further includes a winding assembly, the winding assembly is composed of a winding body and a rotating body, the winding body is provided with an annular winding groove and a through hole through the winding groove, the cable body is inserted into the through hole, the rotating body is rotatably engaged with the winding body, and its rotation axis is coaxial with the axis of the winding groove, two wire guides are fixed on the rotating body, the two wire guides are located on the opening side of the winding groove and are symmetrically distributed about the winding body, the wire guides include a bracket and two guide wheels rotatably connected to the bracket, a wire passage is formed between the two guide wheels, the guide wheels are provided with an arc-shaped wire clamping groove, the cable body passes through the wire passage, and the rotating body is provided with a handle.

[0005] When winding, this invention requires one hand to hold the handle and the other hand to turn the winding body, causing the rotating body and the winding body to rotate relative to each other. At this time, the winding groove will begin to pull the two ends of the cable body. Before being wound into the winding groove, the cable body must pass through the guide. As the cable body moves, it drives the two guide wheels on the guide to rotate synchronously. The size of the wire passage matches the outer diameter of the cable body, thus providing a certain posture correction effect on the cable body and straightening any obvious bends. Simultaneously, the guide wheels also fix the winding section, causing the cable body to tend to wind around the center of the winding groove. As the number of coils in the center of the winding groove increases, the cable body will automatically deflect to both sides. When unwinding, this invention only requires pulling the two ends of the cable body outwards to achieve unwinding.

[0006] Furthermore, the lead wire device also includes a positioning sleeve fixed relative to the rotating body. A through hole is formed on the positioning sleeve, the through hole facing the axis of the winding groove. A rotating sleeve is rotatably fitted inside the through hole. The bracket is fixed inside the rotating sleeve, and the wire passage is located at the center of the rotating sleeve. This design allows the bracket and the two guide wheels to rotate freely along the axis of the positioning sleeve. When the cable body twists to a certain extent, it will generate a certain degree of self-resetting twist during the winding process, thus preventing the automatic self-resetting twist from being hindered.

[0007] Furthermore, the guide rollers are made of elastic gel material, which not only enhances the coefficient of friction but also increases the corrective force on the cable by reducing the size of the cable guide opening.

[0008] Therefore, this utility model has the following characteristics compared with the prior art: 1. When the rotating body and the winding body rotate relative to each other, the cable body will pass through the lead wire under the traction force. The size of the wire passage is matched with the outer diameter of the cable body, so it will produce a certain posture correction effect on the cable body and straighten the obvious bent parts on the cable body; 2. When the cable body is twisted to a certain extent, it will produce a certain reset twisting effect during the winding process. The lead wire in this utility model can allow the cable body to rotate freely. Attached Figure Description

[0014] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0015] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0016] Example 1: See Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 An outdoor cable assembly includes a cable body 10 and a winding assembly 20. The winding assembly consists of a winding body 30 and a rotating body 40, both of which are injection molded. The winding body has an annular winding groove 31 and a through hole 32 that passes through the winding groove. The cable body passes through the through hole. The rotating body rotates relative to the winding body, and its rotation axis is coaxial with the axis of the winding groove. Two lead wires 50 are fixed on the rotating body. The two lead wires are located on the opening side of the winding groove and are symmetrically distributed about the winding body. Each lead wire includes a bracket 51 and two guide wheels 52 rotatably connected to the bracket. A wire passage is formed between the two guide wheels. The guide wheels have an arc-shaped wire clamping groove 53 (see attached diagram). Figure 3 The cable body passes through the cable outlet, and the rotating body is equipped with a flip-up handle 41.

[0017] In this embodiment, during winding, one hand holds the handle while the other hand rotates the winding body, causing the rotating body and the winding body to rotate relative to each other. At this time, the winding groove begins to pull the two ends of the cable body. Before being wound into the winding groove, the cable body must pass through the guide. As the cable body moves, it drives the two guide wheels on the guide to rotate synchronously. The size of the wire passage matches the outer diameter of the cable body, thus providing a certain posture correction effect on the cable body and straightening any obvious bends. Simultaneously, the guide wheels also fix the winding section, causing the cable body to tend to wind around the center of the winding groove. As the number of coils in the center of the winding groove increases, the cable body will automatically deflect to both sides. In this embodiment, during unwinding, simply pulling the two ends of the cable body outwards is sufficient to unwind the cable.

[0018] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 The lead wire also includes a positioning sleeve 54 fixed relative to the rotating body. A through hole is formed on the positioning sleeve, with the through hole facing the axis of the winding groove. A rotating sleeve 55 is rotatably fitted inside the through hole. The bracket is fixed inside the rotating sleeve, and the wire passage is located at the center of the rotating sleeve. This design allows the bracket and the two guide wheels to rotate freely along the axis of the positioning sleeve. When the cable body twists to a certain extent, it will generate a certain degree of reset twisting effect during the winding process. Thus, this embodiment will not hinder its automatic reset twisting.

[0019] The guide rollers are made of elastic gel material, which not only increases the coefficient of friction, but also increases the corrective force on the cable by reducing the size of the cable pass-through.

[0020] See Figure 1 The rotating body has a ring-shaped structure and covers the opening side of the winding groove. Two limiting rings 42 are provided on the inner side of the rotating body, and the two limiting rings form a limit with the two side walls of the winding groove respectively.

[0021] See Figure 2 The outer end of the rotating sleeve is provided with an outwardly folded flange structure 56, and the inner end of the rotating sleeve is provided with a number of circumferentially arranged spring pieces 57, and the side wall of the spring pieces is provided with an outwardly protruding part 58.

[0022] See Figure 1 The winding body has a cavity 33 that runs through the left and right sides in the middle. The cable body passes through the cavity and is fixed with two positioning rings 11. The positioning rings abut against the side wall of the cavity. The winding body is provided with a hand handle 34 that spans the cavity.

[0023] This invention can be modified in many ways, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and such modifications are not considered to depart from the scope of this invention. All such modifications that are obvious to those skilled in the art are included within the scope of these claims.
