Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of wire conduits, and particularly to a galvanized wire conduit. Background Art

[0002] Wire conduits are mainly used for the protection of cables and pipelines in modern automobiles, ensuring that cables and pipelines can be protected from mechanical damage, chemical corrosion, and environmental impacts in the complex working environment of the automobile engine compartment. Traditional wire conduits are usually made of metal or plastic materials, with certain rigidity and durability. However, the rigid structure of traditional wire conduits may pose certain difficulties during installation and maintenance. Especially when it is necessary to turn or adjust the position of the pipeline, problems such as insufficient flexibility are often encountered.

[0003] Existing technical solutions have introduced various designs for achieving local mobility. For example, some solutions use rotatable connectors and flexible joints, enabling the wire conduit to freely adjust the angle and direction within a certain range. These designs usually achieve the local mobility of the wire conduit by adding rotary bearings or elastic materials at the connection parts of the wire conduit, thus adapting to complex installation environments and dynamic usage conditions. Although these solutions have solved the problem of the immobility of traditional wire conduits to a certain extent, their durability and reliability are still limited under harsh conditions such as high temperature and high pressure.

[0004] However, while these existing technical solutions achieve the local mobility of the wire conduit, there are still some defects. The introduction of rotary bearings or elastic materials, although increasing the flexibility of the wire conduit, may also lead to a decrease in the strength and stability of the connection parts. Especially in a strong vibration environment, this deterioration phenomenon is particularly obvious. The complex connection structure also increases the manufacturing and maintenance costs of the wire conduit, which is not conducive to large-scale application. Therefore, an improved waterproof galvanized wire conduit design is needed that can ensure local mobility to adapt to the harsh environment in the automobile engine compartment. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a locally movable galvanized wire conduit to solve the above problems.
