Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of cables, in particular to a communication cable fixer. Background Art

[0002] A cable is a specialized type of conductor, typically used for telecommunications or power transmission. It's typically composed of several or several groups of conductors twisted together into a rope-like structure. Each group of conductors is insulated from the others and often twisted around a core. The entire structure is covered with a highly insulating sheath. Cables are often installed in the air, underground, or underwater.

[0003] The diverse functions of various cables dictate a wide range of applications. These include internal circuits in homes, office buildings, factories, and shops; industrial equipment, robots, automated systems, and production lines; and pipes or cable trays in walls, floors, and ceilings. However, there are also unexpected applications, such as on ships. Marine cables are specialized cables designed for power transmission to electronic equipment, communications equipment, sports equipment, and household appliances. Marine cables are typically placed in cable bridges, which must not be completely filled. When a ship is at sea, the inevitable swaying of the hull in wind and waves can cause the cables within the bridge to move and become tangled, leading to cable damage and loss. This movement and swaying can loosen and wear the connectors on both sides, further damaging the cable and exacerbating losses. Cables are currently typically secured with cable ties, but these ties are short-lived and can age and break down over time. Furthermore, the high humidity and salt content of the air at sea accelerates their aging. Furthermore, care must be taken during installation, as improper installation can lead to cable damage and potential safety hazards. To prevent cable damage and minimize losses, a new fixing tool is ideal to address these shortcomings. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a communication cable fixer, which needs to place the clamping devices on both sides on the outside of the bridge and tighten them before inserting the locking pin. At this time, the friction force of the anti-slip rubber strip will fix the communication cable fixer on the outside of the bridge. At this time, the cable can be fixed in the bridge only by rotating the rotating disk. A buffer rubber strip with a certain deformation ability is provided on the fixing plate of the communication cable fixer, which not only makes the fixation more firm but also allows the cable to be well fixed, avoiding the cable from moving and entangled due to the shaking of the ship, and also avoiding the loosening of the joints on both sides of the cable due to movement.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention is realized through the following technical solutions:

[0006] This utility model discloses a communication cable holder. The main structure includes a cover plate, which is equipped with a fixing device. The fixing device includes a lifting mechanism, a fixing plate, and a cushioning rubber strip disposed below the fixing plate. The cushioning rubber strip is elastically deformable and made of a material such as rubber, pearl cotton, or ACF. The cushioning rubber strip is disposed at an end away from the fixing plate. The fixing plate has an arc-shaped cross-section, which can better compress the cables when they are uneven within the cable bridge, and is also convenient for tightening thin cables.

[0007] The lifting mechanism includes a rotating bolt and a first limiting boss. The rotating bolt is threadedly connected to the cover plate. The first limiting boss is fixed to the end of the rotating bolt. The first limiting boss rotates with the rotation of the rotating bolt. The fixed plate is provided with a first rotating groove for the first limiting boss to rotate. The first limiting boss and the first rotating groove rotate separately.

[0008] The fixing device drives the fixing plate and the buffer rubber strip to move through the lifting mechanism. When the lifting mechanism is tightened, the rotating bolt drives the first limiting boss to rotate and move, and the first rotating boss drives the fixing plate and the buffer rubber strip to move synchronously.

[0009] The cover plate is provided with a clamping device on both sides, and the clamping devices on both sides of the cover plate ensure that the cover plate is fixed relative to the bridge frame and does not move upward when the fixing device is pressed down. The clamping device includes a locking bolt, a second limiting boss, a rubber plate, and an anti-slip rubber strip; the locking bolt is threadedly connected to the cover plate, the end of the locking bolt is fixedly provided with a second limiting boss, the rubber plate is provided with a second rotation groove, and the end of the rubber plate away from the second limiting boss is provided with an anti-slip rubber strip, the anti-slip rubber strip is made of a material with high friction such as rubber or silicone, the second limiting boss and the second limiting groove are separately rotatable, the locking bolt drives the second limiting boss to rotate synchronously in the second rotation groove, when the locking bolt is tightened, the locking bolt drives the second limiting boss to rotate and displace synchronously, and the second limiting boss drives the rubber plate and the anti-slip rubber strip to displace synchronously toward the bridge frame and be pressed; when the locking bolt is loosened, the locking bolt drives the second limiting boss to rotate and displace synchronously, and the second limiting boss drives the rubber plate and the anti-slip rubber strip to displace synchronously away from the bridge frame.

[0010] The clamping device also includes a locking disk and a limiting latch; the locking disk is fixedly connected to the locking bolt, a plurality of limiting holes are provided on the locking disk, and a limiting through hole is provided on the cover plate that is adapted to the size of the limiting holes on the locking disk, and the limiting latch passes through the limiting hole and cooperates with the limiting through hole to realize the limiting of the rotating disk and the cover plate.

[0011] The clamping device drives the second limiting boss to rotate and displace synchronously in the second rotating groove by rotating the locking bolt, and the second limiting boss drives the rubber plate and the anti-slip rubber strip to displace synchronously. The clamping devices on both sides of the cover plate provide the pre-tightening force to the anti-slip rubber strip through the locking bolt to jointly realize the anti-slip of the clamping device relative to the bridge frame.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0013] 1. The communication cable holder provided by the present invention is relatively simple and convenient to assemble and disassemble during use. On the one hand, it saves installation time during construction. On the other hand, due to its simple structure, the manufacturing cost is relatively low.

[0014] 2. Since a communication cable fixer is provided with a buffer rubber strip under the fixing plate, the fixed cable is more firmly. Due to its certain deformation ability, the cable can be fixed by the buffer rubber strip with elastic deformation ability, effectively preventing the cable from moving and getting entangled due to the shaking of the ship, and also effectively preventing the loosening of the connectors on both sides of the cable due to movement.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are intended only to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the contents of this invention, those skilled in the art may make various changes or modifications to the present invention, and that such equivalents also fall within the scope of the claims appended hereto.

[0023] The utility model discloses a communication cable holder. The main structure includes a cover plate 1, on which a fixing device is provided. The fixing device includes a lifting mechanism, a fixing plate 2, and a cushioning rubber strip 3 disposed below the fixing plate 2. The cushioning rubber strip 3 has elastic deformation capability and is made of a material with elastic deformation capability such as rubber, pearl cotton, or ACF. The cushioning rubber strip 3 is disposed at an end away from the fixing plate 2. The fixing plate 2 has an arc-shaped cross-section, which can better compress the cables in the cable bridge when they are uneven, and is convenient for compressing thin cables.

[0024] The lifting mechanism includes a rotating bolt 4 and a first limiting boss 5. The rotating bolt 4 is threadedly connected to the cover plate 1. The first limiting boss 5 is fixed to the end of the rotating bolt 4. The first limiting boss 5 rotates with the rotation of the rotating bolt 4. The fixing plate 2 is provided with a first rotating groove 6 for the first limiting boss 5 to rotate. The first limiting boss 5 and the first rotating groove 6 rotate separately.

[0025] The fixing device drives the fixing plate 2 and the buffer strip 3 to move through the lifting mechanism. When tightened, the rotating bolt 4 drives the first limiting boss 5 to rotate and move. The first rotating boss drives the fixing plate 2 and the buffer strip 3 to move synchronously. The buffer strip 3 moves downward to press the cable.

[0026] Both sides of the cover plate 1 are provided with pressing devices. The pressing devices located on both sides of the cover plate 1 ensure that the cover plate 1 is fixed relative to the bridge frame and does not move upward when the fixing device is pressed down. When the locking bolt 7 is loosened, the locking bolt 7 drives the second limiting boss 8 to rotate and displace synchronously, and the second limiting boss 8 drives the rubber plate 9 and the anti-slip rubber strip 10 to displace synchronously away from the bridge.

[0027] The clamping device also includes a locking disk 12 and a limiting pin 13; the locking disk 12 is fixedly connected to the locking bolt 7, and a plurality of limiting holes 14 are provided on the locking disk 12. The cover plate 1 is provided with a limiting through hole 15 whose size is adapted to the limiting hole 14 on the locking disk 12, and the limiting pin 13 passes through the limiting hole 14 and cooperates with the limiting through hole 15 to realize the limiting of the rotating disk and the cover plate 1.

[0028] The clamping device drives the second limiting boss 8 to rotate and displace synchronously in the second rotating groove 11 by rotating the locking bolt 7. The second limiting boss 8 drives the rubber plate 9 and the anti-slip rubber strip 10 to displace synchronously. The clamping devices on both sides of the cover plate 1 provide a pre-tightening force to the anti-slip rubber strip 10 through the locking bolt 7 to jointly realize the anti-slip of the clamping device relative to the bridge frame. When the fixing device moves downward, it will drive the cover plate 1 to generate a reaction force, causing the fixer to move upward as a whole, and the clamping device avoids this problem.

[0029] It should be noted that the cables in the bridge are usually multiple cables of 8m to 10m in length, so using this fixture alone cannot fix the cables, and multiple devices are needed to fix the cables.

[0030] Detailed instructions for use:

[0031] When in use, first screw the locking bolts 7 of the clamping devices on both sides of the cover 1 to the position where the bridge can be lowered. At this time, put the fixing plate 2 into the bridge and place the clamping devices at both ends of the bridge. At this time, tighten the locking bolt 7, and the locking bolt 7 drives the second limiting boss 8 to rotate synchronously in the second rotating groove 11. The second limiting boss 8 drives the rubber plate 9 to move, and the rubber plate 9 drives the anti-slip rubber strip 10 to move at the same time. After tightening the rotating bolt 4, align the limiting hole 14 on the locking disk 12 with the limiting through hole 15 on the cover 1, and pass the limiting pin 13 through the limiting hole 14 and the limiting through hole 15. At this time, the clamping devices on both sides of the cover 1 provide the pre-tightening force to the anti-slip rubber strip 10 through the locking bolt 7 to achieve the anti-slip fixation of the clamping device relative to the bridge. At this time, the rotating bolt 4 can be tightened, and the rotating bolt 4 drives the first limiting boss 5 to rotate in the first rotating groove 6. The rotating bolt 4 simultaneously drives the first limiting boss 5 to move, and the first limiting boss 5 drives the fixing plate 2 and the buffer rubber strip 3 to move in the first rotating groove 6. When the buffer rubber strip 3 moves downward and presses the cable, the tightening can be stopped; when there are thin cables in the cable, it can be tightened a few more times to allow the buffer rubber strip 3 to fix the thin cable to prevent the cable from moving in the bridge. At this time, the fixation is completed.

[0032] During disassembly, pull out the limit pin 13 from the limit through hole 15 and the limit hole 14, loosen the locking bolt 7, and the anti-slip rubber strip 10 is driven away from the bridge frame by the second limit boss 8 and the locking bolt 7. When the anti-slip rubber strip 10 is away from the bridge frame, the fixed anti-slip limit of the clamping device relative to the bridge frame becomes invalid. At this time, the cover plate 1 can be directly removed to complete the disassembly.
