Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of adapters, in particular to a cable adapter. Background Art

[0002] Cables are usually rope-like cables made of several or several groups of wires (at least two in each group), each group of wires is insulated from each other and often twisted around a center, with a highly insulating covering on the outside. A cable adapter is a device used to connect two cables.

[0003] Existing adapters are generally fixed by screwing together, which is very inconvenient. Therefore, some people think of using a snap-on connection to facilitate disassembly and assembly. For example, Chinese utility model patent with announcement number CN218548938U specifically discloses a cable adapter.

[0004] However, when the above cable adapter is actually used, people will find that when the adapter is connected to the cable, the cable is fixed by squeezing the connecting wire through the positioning rod, and the outer side of the cable is not fixed, so the cable is easy to fall off, which greatly reduces its fixing effect. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a cable adapter to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0007] Preferably, an auxiliary plate is fixed to one end of the seesaw away from the extrusion plate, and anti-slip grooves are arranged on the auxiliary plate. The auxiliary plate can be arranged to facilitate the seesaw to be tilted up, eliminating the fixation of the cable.

[0008] Preferably, the extruded plate is L-shaped.

[0009] Preferably, an oblique opening is provided at one end of the cable slot away from the connecting slot, and the oblique opening can facilitate the insertion of the cable.

[0010] Preferably, a pressing block is provided at one end of the screw close to the connecting groove, and the pressing block is used to squeeze the connecting wire of the cable.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0012] The utility model inserts the cable into the cable slot, inserts the cable connection wire into the connection slot, pulls the seesaw with a spring, and squeezes the outer wall of the cable through the squeezing plate on the seesaw, thereby reinforcing the cable. The connection wire is squeezed by turning a screw to fix the connection wire, thereby improving the fixing effect of the cable, and the operation is simple and easy to understand, thereby improving the practicality of the device.

[0017] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0018] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "vertical", "up", "down", "horizontal", etc. indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0019] In the description of the present invention, it is also necessary to explain that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0020] See also Figure 1-3 The utility model provides a technical solution: a cable adapter, including an adapter body 1, a connector 2 is arranged at the end of the adapter body 1, a cable slot 202 is opened in the middle of the connector 2, a connecting slot 203 is opened at the end of the cable slot 202, a screw hole penetrating the connector 2 is opened on the side of the connecting slot 203, a locking screw 6 is connected to the inner thread of the screw hole, a plurality of chamfered surfaces 201 are opened on the outer side of the connector 2, a hinge seat 4 is fixed on each chamfered surface 201, and a rocker 3 is arranged above the hinge seat 4 A connecting block 303 is fixed under the seesaw 3, and the connecting block 303 and the hinge seat 4 are hinged together. An extrusion plate 301 is provided at the end of the seesaw 3, and a spring 5 is provided on the side of the hinge seat 4. The two ends of the spring 5 are respectively fixed on the seesaw 3 and the chamfered surface 201; by inserting the cable into the cable slot 202, and inserting the connecting wire of the cable into the connecting slot 203, the spring 5 is used to pull the seesaw 3, so that the extrusion plate 301 is used to squeeze the cable, so as to reinforce the cable, and the screw is turned to squeeze the connecting wire to fix the connecting wire.

[0021] Furthermore, an auxiliary plate 302 is fixed to one end of the seesaw 3 away from the extrusion plate 301 , and the auxiliary plate 302 is provided with anti-slip grooves. The auxiliary plate 302 can be provided to facilitate the seesaw 3 to be tilted up, eliminating the need to fix the cable.

[0022] Furthermore, the extrusion plate 301 is L-shaped.

[0023] Furthermore, an oblique opening 204 is provided at one end of the cable slot 202 away from the connection slot 203 , and the oblique opening 204 can facilitate the insertion of the cable.

[0024] Furthermore, a pressing block 601 is provided at one end of the screw close to the connection slot 203 , and the pressing block 601 is provided to squeeze the connecting wire of the cable.

[0025] In summary, when the adapter is in use, it is only necessary to align the cable with the cable slot 202 and insert it. During the process, the cable will open the extrusion plate 301, so that the extrusion plate 301 drives the seesaw 3 to flip upward, so that the seesaw 3 pulls the spring 5, causing the spring 5 to deform and stretch. After the cable is fully inserted, the cable connection line will be inserted into the connection slot 203 at the same time. At this time, the tension of the spring 5 is used to pull the seesaw 3, so that the extrusion plate 301 on the seesaw 3 is used to squeeze the outside of the cable, thereby improving the fixing effect of the cable. Then turn the screw, and use the pressing block 601 on the screw to press the cable connection line, so as to fix the cable. When it needs to be removed, it is only necessary to rotate the screw in the opposite direction to remove the pressing block 601 on the screw from the cable connection line, and then the pressing block 601 can be pressed downward, and the extrusion plate 301 can be tilted by the seesaw 3, and the restriction of the cable can be cancelled, and the cable can be taken out.
