Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of servers, and in particular relates to a cable management buckle capable of bundling cables in a height direction. Background Art
[0002] As the functions of servers increase, more and more electrical components and cables are arranged inside the servers. When installing and managing cables, since the cables need to be routed along the planned path, it is necessary to place cable management clips on the routing path to avoid the problem of scattered, untidy and unsightly cables inside the server.
[0003] Currently, there are many types of cable management clips on the market, but most of them are designed for horizontal routing and are only suitable for cables that are routed on the same horizontal plane. They are not suitable for fixing some special cables that need to be routed and arranged along the height of the server. Figure 1 The server layout shown in the figure: In this 4U server, the fan board needs to be placed at the bottom of the chassis, and the mainboard needs to be placed at a height of 2U on the chassis. Therefore, the fan board and the mainboard are not on the same horizontal plane, and there is a certain height difference. As a result, the multiple cables from the fan board to the mainboard have no suitable cable management clips for height-direction cable bundling, so they can only be placed randomly without constraints, making the internal cable routing of the server messy and lacking in beauty.
[0004] At the same time, during the installation of the fan board and the motherboard, since the fan board is at the bottom, the fan board is usually installed on the chassis first, and the corresponding end of the cable is inserted into the fan board connector interface, and then the motherboard is installed, and the other end of the cable is inserted into the corresponding connector interface of the motherboard. Therefore, after installing the cable at one end of the fan board, it is easy to affect the installation of the motherboard due to the random placement of the cable, and even cause problems such as the cable getting stuck or scratched during the installation of the motherboard, and cause the motherboard to be installed unsmoothly, and the cable needs to be rearranged before installing the motherboard. Utility Model Content
[0005] The technical problem solved by the utility model is to provide a cable management buckle which can bundle cables in the height direction, so as to meet the fixing requirements of cables that need to be routed across heights inside a server, and to avoid the problem that cables inside the server are scattered, untidy and unsightly.
[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution provided by the utility model is: a wire management buckle that can bundle wires in the height direction, which includes a wire bundling spring piece, a fixed body is installed at the lower part of the wire bundling spring piece, and a base is arranged at the lower end of the fixed body; the upper part of the wire bundling spring piece is arranged as an upper C-shaped tube part with a side opening, and both the left and right ends of the upper C-shaped tube part are bent inward to have a blocking part. In this way, when it is necessary to bundle the cables that cross the height route inside the server, the utility model can be first pasted and fixed on the fixed plane at the corresponding position inside the server by adhesive, and then the cables to be constrained are placed in the upper C-shaped tube part through the opening on the side of the wire bundling spring piece, and the upper C-shaped tube part and the blocking part cooperate to constrain them, so as to avoid the problem of scattered, untidy and unsightly cables inside the server.
[0007] Furthermore, a mounting hole is provided at the upper end of the fixing body, and the lower end of the wiring harness spring is vertically inserted into the mounting hole provided at the upper end of the fixing body.
[0008] Furthermore, at least two slideways are axially opened on the hole wall of the mounting hole, and a snap-in hole is provided in each slideway; at least two protrusions are provided on the outer wall of the wiring harness spring piece, and the number of the protrusions is the same as the number of the slideways, and they are respectively plugged into the snap-in holes in the corresponding slideways to achieve stable fixation between the fixed body and the wiring harness spring piece.
[0009] Furthermore, at least two snap-in holes with different heights are provided in each slideway, so that the utility model can adjust the height between the wiring harness spring piece and the base by snapping the protrusion into the snap-in holes with different heights to adapt to wiring requirements of different heights.
[0010] Furthermore, the lower part of the cable tie spring is set as a lower C-shaped tube with a side opening, and the protrusion is set on the outer side of the lower C-shaped tube. At this time, since the lower part of the cable tie spring in the utility model adopts a C-shaped tube structure, it can ensure that the cable tie spring can be smoothly adjusted in the installation hole of the fixed body, that is, it can ensure that the protrusion set on the cable tie spring can be smoothly plugged into the clamping holes of different heights.
[0011] Furthermore, the outer side wall of the cable tie spring is provided with two protrusions, and the opening between the left and right ends of the C-shaped tube portion below the two protrusions is symmetrically arranged as a symmetrical center to ensure that the two protrusions are evenly stressed.
[0012] Furthermore, the opening between the left and right ends of the upper C-shaped tube portion and the opening between the left and right ends of the lower C-shaped tube portion are connected, and at this time the entire harness spring piece will form a C-shaped tube structure with a side opening, which is convenient for its production.
[0013] Furthermore, the cross section of the fixed body is annular, and the cross sections of the upper C-shaped tube and the lower C-shaped tube are fan-shaped. At this time, since the fixed body and the wire harness spring in the utility model are both rounded, scratching of surrounding electrical components can be avoided during the installation of the utility model.
[0014] Furthermore, the cable tie spring is made of plastic to ensure that it has a certain elasticity.
[0015] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the base is provided as an adhesive portion, and can be adhered to a fixed plane at a position inside the server where wire management is required by applying adhesive on the adhesive portion.
[0016] It can be seen from the above technical scheme that the utility model has the following advantages: First, the utility model can restrain the cables that cross the height routing through the cooperation of the upper C-shaped tube part and the blocking part, thereby avoiding the problem of scattered, untidy and unsightly cables inside the server, and avoiding the installation of electrical components being affected by the cables; secondly, the utility model can also be adjusted in the height direction to adapt to routing at different heights; at the same time, since the utility model can be directly placed and fixed in the chassis of the server by applying adhesive on the bottom of the base, the utility model also has the advantages of flexible placement and convenient operation according to the wiring requirements.
