[0044] Such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown in the figure, the utility model provides a spliced elbow structure for a cable tray for quickly connecting cable trays. The spliced elbow structure of the cable tray includes a first cable tray 1, a second cable tray 2, an elbow interface 3, and an elbow plug 4. One side of the end of the first cable tray 1 is provided with a mating interface 111. The end face of the first cable tray 1 is provided with an opening. The first cable tray 1 includes a first side plate 11 and a second side plate 12 arranged side by side. The end of the first side plate 11 is provided with the mating interface 111. The elbow interface 3 is arranged at the mating interface 111. One side of the first end of the elbow interface 3 is connected to the first side plate 11. The elbow plug 4 is arranged at the end of the first cable tray 1 for blocking the opening between the second side plate 12 and the elbow interface 3. The second cable tray 2 is connected to the second end of the elbow interface 3. In the utility model, a turning connection is performed at the end of the first cable tray 1. A mating interface 111 is arranged on one side of the end of the first cable tray 1, and in addition, the end face of the first cable tray 1 has an opening. The elbow interface 3 is arranged at the mating interface 111 for mating with the mating interface 111. The elbow plug 4 is arranged at the opening of the end face for mating with the opening, and the second end of the elbow interface 3 can also be connected to the second cable tray 2. In this way, when assembling the cable tray, the elbow interface 3 and the elbow plug 4 can be prefabricated or prepared in advance to quickly connect the first cable tray 1 and the second cable tray 2, realizing the rapid assembly of the cable tray, avoiding the problems of cumbersome operation, low installation efficiency, and heavy installation burden caused by on-site cutting and welding, and also avoiding the protrusions and burrs generated by on-site cutting and welding.
[0045] The installation layout of cable trays inevitably requires turning. Since the production of arc shapes is relatively troublesome and the labor cost is high, the elbows of cable trays in the traditional market are all right-angled when turning involves angular connection, with non-arc-shaped sides and non-circular arc elbows. The horizontal elbow of the ladder-type cable tray is a type of cable tray. If the turning is at a right angle, when pulling the cable, it will be bent at 90 degrees, which is very likely to cause the wires inside the cable to break. Moreover, the pulling of the cable will cause the edges and corners of the right-angle surface to be frequently rubbed, and the surface layer of the cable is easily scratched during the installation and construction, accelerating the wear and aging of the cable and reducing the service life of the cable. To solve these problems, the utility model provides an embodiment of the elbow interface 3. Refer to the attached Figure 4, the elbow joint 3 includes a third side plate 31, a fourth side plate 32 and an elbow bottom plate 33. The third side plate 31 and the fourth side plate 32 are arranged side by side on the elbow bottom plate 33. The first end of the third side plate 31 is connected to the first side plate 11, and the first end of the third side plate 31 is arc-shaped. The fourth side plate 32 extends to the end face of the first bridge 1, and the fourth side plate 32 is connected to the elbow plug 4. In this embodiment, the first end of the third side plate 31 is arc-shaped. In this way, when the elbow joint 3 is docked with the first bridge 1, an arc-shaped connection structure can be formed by using the third side plate 31. The inner side of the elbow joint 3 near the turn is arc-shaped. In this way, the inner right-angle side of the elbow joint 3 is converted into an arc section, reducing the resistance when dragging the cable. Compared with ordinary elbows, the elbow joint 3 in this embodiment can reduce cable wear and make the dragging of the wire smoother.
[0046] Further, referring to the attached Figure 3 and the attached Figure 4 , a first connection hole is provided at the first side plate 11 near the docking port 111. A second connection hole is provided at the first end of the third side plate 31. The cable tray splicing elbow structure further includes a first fastener. The first fastener passes through the first connection hole and the second connection hole to fasten the first end of the third side plate 31 and the first side plate 11. The first side plate 11 and the third side plate 31 are respectively provided with a first connection hole and a second connection. The first bridge 1 and the elbow joint 3 can be quickly installed through the first fastener, rapidly improving the assembly efficiency.

[0051] In some embodiments of the elbow bottom plate 33, referring to the attached Figure 3 , attached Figure 4 , two ends of the elbow bottom plate 33 are respectively connected to the bottom of the first bridge 1 and the bottom of the second bridge 2.
