Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0027] Specific embodiments are given below.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1-7 , the present utility model provides a trough-type cable tray with a telescopic function, including an outer tray 1; an extension frame 2 is slidably connected inside the outer tray 1, extension grooves are opened on both sides of the extension frame 2, and racks 3 are fixedly connected to the inner side walls of the extension grooves;

[0029] An extension mechanism 4 is arranged on the outer tray 1. The extension mechanism 4 includes a positioning groove opened inside the outer tray 1, a transmission rod 41 is rotatably connected to the inner bottom wall of the positioning groove, a transmission groove is opened on the inner side wall of the outer tray 1, a through hole is communicated between the transmission groove and the positioning groove, the top end of the transmission rod 41 passes through the through hole and is elastically connected to the inner top wall of the transmission groove, a first gear 42 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod 41 located in the transmission groove, the first gear 42 is meshed with the rack 3, a second gear 43 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the transmission rod 41 located in the positioning groove, an internal gear 44 is slidably connected in the positioning groove, the bottom end of the internal gear 44 is elastically connected to the inner bottom wall of the positioning groove through a first spring 45, the internal gear 44 is meshed with the second gear 43, and an extension rod 46 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the internal gear 44. The bottom end of the extension rod 46 penetrates through the outer tray 1 and communicates with the outside; during operation, through the setting of the extension mechanism 4, the length of the outer tray 1 can be conveniently extended and adjusted, that is, the outer tray 1 is pre-installed and fixed at the use location, and then the extension rod 46 can be pulled according to the required extended length, that is, the installation and docking length, to drive the internal gear 44 to move downward. The internal gear 44 disengages from the contact with the second gear 43, and the rotational limit of the second gear 43 and the transmission rod 41 is released, and then the extension frame 2 can be pulled out to adjust its length outside the outer tray 1 until the pulled length meets the required requirements. Subsequently, the extension rod 46 can be released. Under the pressure of the first spring 45, the internal gear 44 resets and limits the rotation of the second gear 43 and the first gear 42, and then limits the movement of the rack 3 and the extension frame 2, so as to ensure the stability of the adjusted extension frame 2.

[0030] Furthermore, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a toggle plate 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the extension rod 46 located outside, and anti-slip patterns are arranged on the outer wall of the toggle plate 5. During operation, through the setting of the toggle plate 5, it is convenient to apply forces to a plurality of extension rods 46 simultaneously.

[0031] Furthermore, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 shown, a rotating block is fixedly connected to the top of the outer tray 1, one side surface of the rotating block is rotatably connected to a cover plate 6 through a hinge, and a buckle is installed at the other end of the cover plate 6. During operation, through the setting of the cover plate 6 and the buckle, it can cooperate with the outer tray 1 to form a complete trough-type cable tray.

[0032] Further, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a mounting plate 7 is fixedly connected to the top of the extension frame 2. One side surface of the mounting plate 7 is rotatably connected to an auxiliary plate 8 through a hinge. An auxiliary groove adapted to the cover plate 6 is formed on one side surface of the auxiliary plate 8. During operation, through the arrangement of the mounting plate 7 and the auxiliary plate 8, the length of the cover plate 6 can be extended, further ensuring the extension adjustment of the trough cable tray.

[0033] Further, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 , a first heat dissipation hole 9 is formed in the bottom of the outer cable tray 1, and a second heat dissipation hole is formed in the inner bottom wall of the extension frame 2. During operation, through the arrangement of the first heat dissipation hole 9 and the second heat dissipation hole, the heat generated during the operation of the cable can be dissipated conveniently.

[0034] Further, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a guide plate 10 is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the outer cable tray 1, and guide grooves adapted to the guide plate 10 are formed on both sides of the extension frame 2. During operation, through the arrangement of the guide plate 10 and the guide grooves, positioning and guiding can be provided for the movement of the extension frame 2.

[0035] Further, as shown in Figure 1 , mounting blocks 11 are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer cable tray 1, and mounting holes are formed in the tops of the mounting blocks 11. During operation, through the arrangement of the mounting blocks 11 and the mounting holes, the trough cable tray can be conveniently installed at the use location.

[0036] Working principle: The outer cable tray 1 is pre-installed and fixed at the use location. Subsequently, according to the length that needs to be extended, that is, the installation and docking length, the extension rod 46 is pulled to drive the internal gear 44 to move downward. The internal gear 44 disengages from the contact with the second gear 43, releasing the rotational limit on the second gear 43 and the transmission rod 41. Then, the extension frame 2 can be pulled out to adjust its length outside the outer cable tray 1 until the pulled length meets the required requirements. Subsequently, the extension rod 46 can be released. Under the pressure of the first spring 45, the internal gear 44 resets and limits the rotation of the second gear 43 and the first gear 42, and then limits the movement of the rack 3 and the extension frame 2, thus ensuring the stability of the adjusted extension frame 2.

[0037] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. What is described in the above embodiments and the specification only illustrates the principles of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the present invention will have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements all fall within the scope of the present invention claimed.
