[0006] Preferably, the depth of the limiting hole is less than the radius of the omnidirectional ball.

[0007] Preferably, the end faces of the upper and lower shells are fixedly connected to the first partition soft plate, and the two first partition soft plates form a receiving cavity between the upper and lower shells respectively. The receiving cavity is provided with a plurality of second partition soft plates, which evenly divide the receiving cavity into a plurality of placement chambers.

[0008] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a cylinder, a sliding plate, and a limiting post. Limiting grooves are provided on the mutually distant sides of the two plug blocks. The two cylinders are respectively fixedly embedded in the front and rear sides of the socket. The outer surface of the sliding plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cylinder.

[0026] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.

[0027] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, this utility model is a protective integrated wire harness, including a wire harness body 1 and a socket 2. A plug 3 is provided on one side of the wire harness body 1, and the wire harness body 1 is fixedly connected inside the plug 3. A pin 31 is provided inside the plug 3, and the wire harness body 1 is fixedly connected to the pin 31. A socket 21 adapted to the pin 31 is provided on one side of the socket 2. As is known to those skilled in the art, after a period of use, the existing wire harness body 1 will be damaged by friction, wear and scratching with objects, which will affect its service life and the normal operation of the equipment.

[0028] In this embodiment, a socket 2 has a socket groove 22 on one side and on both sides of the socket 21. A plug block 32 is provided on the side of the plug 3 and on both sides of the pin 31. The plug block 32 can be inserted into the socket groove 22 and slidably connected to it. A limiting mechanism 4 is provided between the plug block 32 and the socket groove 22 to limit and fix the movement of the plug block 32 within the socket groove 22. A protective device 5 is provided on the outside of the wire harness body 1. The protective device 5 includes an upper shell 51 and a lower shell 52. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to both ends of the bottom surface of the upper shell 51. Connecting blocks 511 and lower half shell 52 have connecting grooves 521 on both sides of the top surface of the connecting blocks 511. The connecting blocks 511 can be inserted into the connecting grooves 521. The connecting blocks 511 have movable grooves 5111 on both sides. A first spring 5112 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the movable groove 5111. A ball bearing 5113 is fixedly connected to one side of the first spring 5112. A universal ball 5114 is provided in the ball bearing 5113. A limit hole 522 is provided on the inner side of the connecting groove 521 corresponding to the universal ball 5114. The universal ball 5114 can be snapped into the limit hole 522.

[0029] The upper and lower housings 51 and 52 are used to place the wire harness body 1 inside them, protecting it from scratches and abrasions and ensuring its integrity. The connecting block 511 and connecting groove 521 facilitate the connection between the upper and lower housings 51 and 52. The universal ball joint 5114 and limiting hole 522 further restrict the movement of the connecting block 511 within the connecting groove 521, making the connection between the upper and lower housings 51 and 52 more stable and preventing easy separation due to shaking. When the connecting block 511 is inserted into the connecting groove 521, the universal ball joint 5114 moves the universal ball joint 5114 to a certain extent, thus limiting and fixing its movement within the connecting groove 521. This makes the connection between the upper and lower housings 51 and 52 more stable and prevents them from easily separating due to shaking. When the connecting block 511 is inserted into the connecting groove 521, the universal ball joint 5114 moves the universal ball joint 5114 to a certain extent, thus limiting and fixing its movement within the connecting groove 521. When the ball 5114 rotates, it pushes the ball bearing 5113 to compress the spring inward until the connecting block 511 is fully inserted into the connecting groove 521. At this point, the ball 5114 moves to the limiting hole 522. The restoring force of the first spring 5112 causes the ball 5114 to lock into the limiting hole 522, restricting the connecting block 511. When the upper half of the shell 51 and the lower half of the shell 52 need to be separated, the connecting block 511 is pulled out. The inward compression of the ball 5114 causes the first spring 5112 to be forced to move the ball bearing 5113, thereby moving the ball 5114 out of the inner cavity of the limiting hole 522. This releases the restriction on the movement of the connecting block 511, allowing the connecting block 511 to be pulled out of the connecting groove 521, thus separating the upper half of the shell 51 and the lower half of the shell 52.

[0030] Moreover, in this embodiment, the depth of the limiting hole 522 is less than the radius of the omnidirectional ball 5114.

[0031] With this setting, the universal ball 5114 can be engaged in the limiting hole 522 to limit the connection block 511, so that when the connection block 511 needs to be pulled out of the connecting groove 521, it does not require a lot of force to pull it out.

[0032] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the end faces of the upper shell 51 and the lower shell 52 are fixedly connected to the first partition soft plate 6. The two first partition soft plates 6 form a receiving cavity between the upper shell 51 and the lower shell 52, respectively. A plurality of second partition soft plates 7 are provided in the receiving cavity, and the plurality of second partition soft plates 7 evenly divide the receiving cavity into a plurality of placement chambers 8.

[0033] By using the first partition plate 6 and the second partition plate 7, the two partition plates separate the wire harnesses to prevent them from tangling. Each wire harness is inserted into the corresponding placement chamber 8 from one side of the upper half housing 51 or the lower half housing 52. Then, the upper half housing 51 and the lower half housing 52 are pushed forward to completely cover the wire harnesses, thus separating the wire harnesses and protecting them inside the upper half housing 51 and the lower half housing 52.

[0034] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the limiting mechanism 4 includes a cylinder 41, a sliding plate 42, and a limiting post 43. Limiting grooves 321 are provided on the sides of the two plug blocks 32 that are far apart from each other. The two cylinders 41 are respectively fixedly embedded in the front and rear sides of the socket 2. The outer surface of the sliding plate 42 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the cylinder 41. The limiting post 43 is installed on the inner side of the sliding plate 42, and the top of the limiting post 43 is engaged with the inner wall of the limiting groove 321. A connecting post 44 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the sliding plate 42. One end of the connecting post 44 passes through the cylinder 41 and is fitted with a connecting ring 45.

[0035] By using the limiting mechanism 4, the connecting ring 45 is pulled outward as needed, causing the limiting post 43 to move outward. This aligns the plug block 32 on the plug 3 with the plug slot 22 on the socket 2. The plug 3 is then pushed to insert the plug block 32 into the plug slot 22. The connecting ring 45 is then released, and the second spring 46 resets the sliding plate 42 and the limiting post 43, allowing the limiting post 43 to insert into the limiting groove 321 of the plug block 32. This ensures that the plug 3 and socket 2 are successfully installed, providing a stable connection between them. This alleviates the problem of the plug 3 becoming loose due to vibration, which could affect the normal operation of the equipment and protect the stability of the connection.

[0036] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, a second spring 46 is sleeved on the outer surface of the connecting column 44, and the two ends of the second spring 46 are fixedly connected to the outer side of the slide plate 42 and the inner bottom wall of the cylinder 41, respectively.

[0037] The second spring 46 can reset the slide plate 42 and the limiting post 43 according to its own elasticity, so as to limit and fix the plug 3.

[0038] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the inner wall of the cylinder 41 has two grooves 411, and the inner walls of the two grooves 411 are slidably connected to sliders 412, and the sliders 412 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the outer surface of the slide plate 42.

[0039] With the provided groove 411 and slider 412, when the slide plate 42 slides on the inner wall of the cylinder 41, the slider 412 can slide on the inner wall of the groove 411, which can limit and guide the movement of the slide plate 42 and ensure the stability of the slide plate 42 when it moves.

[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, rectangular grooves 512 are provided on the sides of the two connecting blocks 511 that are far apart from each other. A rectangular block 513 is slidably connected inside each rectangular groove 512. A third spring is fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two rectangular blocks 513. Each third spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove 512. A locking block 5131 is fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two rectangular blocks 513. Rectangular slots 523 are provided on both the front and rear sides of the lower half shell 52. The rectangular slots 523 are all connected to the corresponding connecting grooves 521. Both locking blocks 5131 can be locked into the interior of the rectangular slots 523.

[0041] With the rectangular slot 512 and rectangular block 513 configured, when the upper half-shell 51 and the lower half-shell 52 are connected, the connecting block 511 is inserted into the connecting slot 521. At this time, the rectangular block 513 is moved into the rectangular slot 512 under force until the connecting block 511 is fully inserted into the connecting slot 521. At this time, the locking block 5131 coincides with the rectangular locking slot 523. Due to the elasticity of the third spring, the rectangular block 513 will be pushed outward. The outward movement of the rectangular block 513 will drive the locking block 5131 to move into the interior of the rectangular locking slot 523, further restricting and fixing the connecting block 511 in the connecting slot 521. This further stabilizes the connection between the upper half-shell 51 and the lower half-shell 52. When it is necessary to disassemble, pressing the locking block 5131 will pull the connecting block 511 out of the connecting slot 521. This is convenient to use and improves the practicality of the device.

[0042] In use, insert each wire harness into the corresponding placement chamber 8 from one side of the upper half-shell 51 or the lower half-shell 52. Then, push the upper half-shell 51 and the lower half-shell 52 forward to completely cover the wire harness, thus separating the wire harnesses and protecting them inside the upper half-shell 51 and the lower half-shell 52. Next, connect the upper half-shell 51 and the lower half-shell 52, insert the connecting block 511 into the connecting groove 521. The connecting block 511 drives the universal ball 5114 to rotate. The rotation of the universal ball 5114 pushes the ball bearing 5113 to compress the spring inward. The rectangular block 513 moves into the rectangular groove 512 under force until the connecting block 511 is fully inserted into the connecting groove 521. At this point, the universal ball 5114 just moves to the limiting hole 522. The restoring force of the first spring 5112 causes the universal ball 5114 to just engage with the limiting hole 522. The connecting block 511 is restricted, and the locking block 5131 coincides with the rectangular locking groove 523. Due to the elasticity of the third spring, the rectangular block 513 is pushed outward. The outward movement of the rectangular block 513 causes the locking block 5131 to move into the interior of the rectangular locking groove 523, further restricting the connecting block 511. This connects the upper half shell 51 and the lower half shell 52. If necessary, the connecting ring 45 is pulled outward, causing the limiting post 43 to move outward. The plug block 32 on the plug 3 is aligned with the plug groove 22 on the socket 2. The plug 3 is pushed, and the plug block 32 is inserted into the plug groove 22. The connecting ring 45 is released, and the second spring 46 causes the sliding plate 42 and the limiting post 43 to reset, so that the limiting post 43 is inserted into the limiting groove 321 of the plug block 32, thus successfully installing the plug 3 and the socket 2.

[0043] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
