Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wire technology, specifically to a branch line drain clamp. Background Technology

[0002] In modern power networks, branch line clamps play a crucial role, primarily used to safely and reliably connect branch lines to the main line, ensuring efficient power transmission. However, existing branch line clamps have some shortcomings in design and function, particularly in adapting to different installation conditions.

[0003] Limited fixing methods: Most existing branch line drain clamps adopt a one-piece molded fixing ring design. Although this design is simple, it lacks flexibility in practical applications and cannot meet the installation requirements of different heights or angles.

[0004] Inconvenient adjustment: Since the position of the fixing ring is fixed and cannot be adjusted, if the installation position is not suitable, it is necessary to replace the new wire clamp or take additional measures to adjust it, which increases the installation cost and time consumption.

[0005] Limited adaptability: With the diversified development of power facilities, single-fixation clamps are difficult to adapt to various working conditions, especially in installation operations in space-constrained or special environments.

[0006] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention proposes an improved branch line drain clamp design. This design, by introducing an adjustable fixing plate and fixing screws, not only provides multiple fixing methods (i.e., fixing via the fixing rings on the fixing plate or the fixing rings on the fixing screws), but also allows users to select appropriate screw hole positions to adjust the height of the fixing components according to actual conditions, thereby better adapting to installation requirements under different working conditions. This innovative design greatly enhances the flexibility and practicality of the clamp, bringing greater convenience to practical applications in power engineering. Utility Model Content

[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a branch line drain clamp.

[0008] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a branch line drain clamp, including a clamp body and a clamping mechanism.

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] It should be noted that if the embodiments of this utility model involve directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.), the directional indicators are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicators will also change accordingly.

[0027] This utility model provides a branch line drain clamp.

[0028] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 1-4 , the branch drainage wire clamp includes a wire clamp body 1 and a clamping mechanism. The wire clamp body includes a clamping part 2 with a "C" - shaped structure and a lead connection part 3 connected to the clamping part 2. It also includes a fixing plate 4 and a fixing screw 5. A "T" - shaped chute 6 is provided on the back of the clamping part. A first fixing ring 7 is provided at the top of the fixing plate. A "T" - shaped connecting part 8 that is slidably engaged with the above - mentioned "T" - shaped chute is provided on one side of the fixing plate. A number of first screw holes 9 are arranged at equal intervals along the length direction of the fixing plate, and a number of second screw holes 10 are arranged at equal intervals along the length direction of the "T" - shaped chute. After the fixing plate is inserted into the "T" - shaped chute, one of the first screw holes 9 is aligned with one of the second screw holes 10 and then fixedly connected by the fixing screw. A second fixing ring 11 is provided at the top of the fixing screw 5.

[0029] In the above technical solution, through the design of the fixing plate and the fixing screw, the wire clamp can adapt to the installation requirements of different heights, improving the flexibility and applicability of installation. The cooperation between the "T" - shaped chute and the "T" - shaped connecting part, combined with the precise alignment of the screw holes, makes the connection between the fixing plate and the wire clamp body more firm, improving the stability of the overall structure.

[0030] Among them, the fixing rings (the first fixing ring and the second fixing ring) are used for the fixation of the wire clamp. During specific use, the fixing plate is inserted into the "T" - shaped chute, and the fixing plate is adjusted to the required height. At the same time, one of the first screw holes is aligned with one of the second screw holes and then fixedly connected by the fixing screw. In addition, since a fixing ring is also provided on the fixing screw, the height of the fixing screw can be selected by choosing screws of different heights to select different installation heights. It is flexible to use, with stronger adaptability and universality.

[0031] Specifically, the clamping mechanism includes a screw 12 threadedly connected to the bottom of the clamping part, a clamping block 13 at the top of the screw 12, and an operating rod 14 at the bottom of the screw. An operating handle 15 is fixed to the bottom of the operating rod 14, and a through - hole 16 is provided on the operating handle 15.

[0032] Through the combined design of the screw and the clamping block, the clamping force can be conveniently adjusted to ensure that the wire is firmly clamped without slipping. The setting of the operating rod and the operating handle makes the operation more labor - saving, facilitating manual operation by workers and improving work efficiency. The through - hole design on the operating handle facilitates the insertion of tools, helping to quickly adjust or disassemble, which is convenient for daily maintenance.

[0033] Specifically, the surface of the clamping block has a first arc - shaped clamping surface 17, the upper side of the clamping part has a second arc - shaped clamping surface 18, and the first arc - shaped clamping surface and the second arc - shaped clamping surface are coated with a silver - based coating 19.

[0034] Applying a silver-based coating to the clamping blocks and clamping parts effectively improves conductivity and reduces contact resistance. The silver-based coating also exhibits good wear resistance, extending the lifespan of the wire clamp and reducing the failure rate caused by wear.

[0035] Specifically, the thickness of the silver-based coating 19 is 1-3 mm.

[0036] The thickness of the silver-based coating is set within the range of 1-3mm, which can ensure good conductivity while avoiding material waste and increased costs caused by excessively thick coatings.

[0037] Specifically, the surface of the silver-based coating has multiple bumps 20.

[0038] The raised dots on the silver-based coating increase friction with the conductor, further ensuring a secure clamping and preventing slippage. The raised dots also help distribute pressure, preventing damage to the conductor due to excessive localized pressure.

[0039] Specifically, the lead wire connection part and the clamping part are inclined, and the angle of inclination between the clamping part and the lead wire connection part is 120-150°.

[0040] The angle between the clamping part and the lead wire connection part is designed to be within the range of 120-150°, which can optimize the current transmission path and reduce electromagnetic interference.

[0041] Specifically, the lead wire connection part is provided with a lead wire hole 21, and a torque bolt 22 is provided on the side of the lead wire hole 21.

[0042] The lead hole is used for lead wire connection and is also secured using torque bolts.

[0043] Attention all technical personnel: Although this utility model has been described according to the specific embodiments above, the concept of this utility model is not limited to this utility model. Any modification that utilizes the concept of this utility model will be included within the scope of protection of this patent right.
