DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0030] The utility model discloses a cable tensioning device, which has the advantages of high working reliability and low failure rate.

[0031] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Apparently, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0032] In the description of the utility model, it is understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "middle" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the utility model.

[0033] In some embodiments, including the protective cover 1, the bottom end of the protective cover 1 is provided with a guide assembly for guiding the cable 2, and a tensioning assembly is installed in the protective cover 1, the tensioning assembly comprising a pulley block and a pull rope 3 arranged on the pulley block, the free end of the pull rope 3 is hoisted with a counterweight assembly, the bottom end of the movable pulley 4 of the pulley block is provided with two rotating wheels 5, the two rotating wheels 5 are arranged in an upper and lower manner, and the cable 2 passes between the two rotating wheels 5.

[0034] Specifically, according to the actual application, the cable 2 can be arranged in the mode shown in the figure, that is, the cable 2 passes through the guide assembly, the rotating wheel 5 and the other guide assembly in turn, and then the cable 2 is connected with the wiring terminal on the high support; another arrangement mode is that the cable 2 is directly connected with the wiring terminal on the high support after passing through the rotating wheel 5.

[0035] The protective cover 1 can be made of stainless steel material or insulating material.

[0036] The utility model utilizes the principle of pulley block: when the cable 2 contracts in winter, the length of the cable 2 between adjacent high supports becomes shorter, the tensioning force becomes larger, and the downward pulling force of the movable pulley 4 becomes larger, since the lifting force of the counterweight assembly on the movable pulley 4 through the pull rope 3 is constant, the movable pulley 4 automatically descends to compensate for the length of the cable 2, when the pulling force of the cable 2 on the movable pulley 4 and the lifting force of the pull rope 3 on the movable pulley 4 are rebalanced, the movable pulley 4 stops descending; in summer, the cable 2 elongates, the length of the cable 2 between adjacent high supports becomes larger, the pulling force of the cable 2 on the movable pulley 4 becomes smaller, and the counterweight assembly descends, so that the movable pulley 4 rises, the length of the cable 2 between the high supports becomes smaller, when the pulling force of the cable 2 on the movable pulley 4 and the lifting force of the pull rope 3 on the movable pulley 4 are rebalanced, the movable pulley 4 stops rising; in summary, the utility model adopts a pure mechanical structure, and the cable 2 can be automatically tensioned through the arrangement of the pulley block, the pull rope 3 and the counterweight assembly, so as to adapt to the length change of the cable 2 due to thermal expansion and cold contraction in different seasons, and has the advantages of high working reliability and low failure rate.

[0037] The protective cover 1 is fixedly connected with the high support, such as welding or bolting or riveting.

[0038] The pull rope 3 can be a steel wire rope or other anti-tension rope.

[0039] In some embodiments, the pulley set further comprises a first fixed pulley 6 fixedly connected with the top plate of the protective cover 1, one end of the pull rope 3 is fixedly connected with the bottom end of the first fixed pulley 6, and the free end of the pull rope 3 is sequentially wound around the lower surface of the wheel body of the driven pulley 4 and the upper surface of the wheel body of the first fixed pulley 6.

[0040] Specifically, the pulley set has the feature of labor saving, thereby being capable of reducing the weight requirement of the counterweight assembly. In the drawings, the setting mode with one first fixed pulley 6 and one driven pulley 4 is shown, and in actual application, multiple first fixed pulleys 6 and multiple driven pulleys 4 can be provided to achieve more complex labor saving effect.

[0041] Since the weight of the counterweight assembly is constant, the pulling force of the counterweight assembly on the pull rope 3 is constant, and the upward pulling force of the pull rope 3 on the driven pulley 4 is constant. When the cable 2 contracts in winter, the downward pulling force of the cable 2 on the driven pulley 4 will increase, the driven pulley 4 will descend, the length of the cable 2 between adjacent high supports will increase, and the pulling force of the cable 2 on the driven pulley 4 will decrease. When the pulling force of the cable 2 on the driven pulley 4 and the pulling force of the pull rope 3 on the driven pulley 4 are rebalanced, the driven pulley 4 stops descending. When the cable 2 elongates in summer, the pulling force of the cable 2 on the driven pulley 4 decreases, the counterweight assembly descends, and the driven pulley 4 rises. When the pulling force of the cable 2 on the driven pulley 4 and the pulling force of the pull rope 3 on the driven pulley 4 are rebalanced, the driven pulley 4 stops rising.

[0042] In some embodiments, a first sliding rail 101 is vertically fixed on the inner wall of the protective cover 1, and a first dovetail sliding block 401 is fixed on one side of the driven pulley 4 and is in sliding connection with the first sliding rail 101.

[0043] Specifically, the first dovetail sliding block 401 cooperates with the first sliding rail 101 to limit the driven pulley 4, thereby enhancing the stability of the driven pulley 4 and preventing the driven pulley 4 from being deflected under the pulling action of the cable 2.

[0044] In some embodiments, a second fixed pulley 7 and a third fixed pulley 8 are further provided, the second fixed pulley 7 is fixedly connected with the top plate of the protective cover 1, the rotation axis of the wheel body of the second fixed pulley 7 is vertically arranged, the third fixed pulley 8 is fixedly connected with the top plate of the protective cover 1, the rotation axis of the wheel body of the third fixed pulley 8 is horizontally arranged, and the free end of the pull rope 3 is L-shaped and sequentially wound around the surface of the wheel body of the second fixed pulley 7 and the surface of the wheel body of the third fixed pulley 8 and freely hangs downward.

[0045] Specifically, the provision of the second fixed pulley 7 and the third fixed pulley 8 can enable the free end of the pull rope 3 to be located on one side of the cable 2, thereby avoiding the influence of the counterweight assembly on the cable 2.
