Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable quick-connect plug technology, and in particular to a portable inflatable cable quick-connect plug waterproof float. Background Technology
[0002] Among existing waterproofing solutions for extension cable connectors, one method is the glue-filled buried cable method. This involves stripping the outer sheath of the cables at the connection points, connecting them, wrapping them with sponge strips, closing the mold box, pouring in mixed resin glue, and then curing. This glue-filled buried cable method is complex and time-consuming. Another method uses deep-sea aviation connectors with higher waterproof ratings, such as the invasive deep-sea connector disclosed in patent publication number CN106877089A. This achieves an IP68 waterproof rating without any external devices, but this connector is only suitable for small-diameter cables. A third method, such as the portable quick-release cable quick-connect waterproof float disclosed in patent publication number CN218783282U, is bulky and inconvenient to carry.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a portable, inflatable, waterproof floating body for cable quick-connect plugs. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the problems existing in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a portable inflatable cable quick-connect waterproof float, which facilitates storage and transportation.

[0006] This utility model provides a portable inflatable waterproof float for cable quick connectors, including an air bladder and a sealing mechanism; the air bladder has a through hole in the middle for holding cables and cable quick connectors; the sealing mechanism is located at both ends of the air bladder.
[0007] Optionally, the sealing mechanism includes a gland, a support, and a sealing block; the support has a receiving groove on the side facing the gland in the middle, the sealing block is disposed between the inner wall of the receiving groove and the cable, and the gland is disposed on the support.
[0008] Optionally, the gland and the support are connected by a plurality of wing screws.
[0009] Optionally, the pressure cap has two through holes and two threaded holes on the side facing the support, and the support has two threaded holes and two through holes on the side facing the pressure cap, corresponding to the pressure cap. The connection between the pressure cap and the support is completed by screwing the wing screw through the through holes and into the threaded holes.
[0010] Optionally, the gland and the support are connected to form a cylindrical sealing ring.
[0011] Optionally, a reduced-diameter ring is provided on the side of the sealing ring away from the airbag, and the reduced-diameter ring is used to compress the airbag.
[0012] Optionally, the reduced diameter ring is connected to the outer wall of the sealing ring by a thread.
[0013] Optionally, the contact surfaces of the gland and the support with the sealing block are provided with a vulcanized layer.
[0014] Optionally, the airbag is provided with an air port, which is used to connect to an air pump to inflate and deflate the airbag.
[0015] Optionally, the airbag is a silicone airbag.
[0016] The present invention achieves the following technical advantages over the prior art:

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a portable inflatable waterproof float for cable quick connectors, including a silicone airbag 1 and a sealing mechanism; the silicone airbag 1 has a through-hole in the middle for holding the cable and the cable quick connector 4; the sealing mechanism is located at both ends of the silicone airbag 1.
[0029] In this specific embodiment, the sealing mechanism includes a pressure cap 2, a support 3, and a sealing block 5; a receiving groove is provided on the side of the support 3 facing the pressure cap 2, the sealing block 5 is disposed between the inner wall of the receiving groove and the cable, and the pressure cap 2 is disposed on the support 3.
[0030] The pressure cap 2 has two through holes at both ends of the receiving groove on the side facing the support 3. Two threaded holes are provided on the outside of the two through holes. The support 3 has two threaded holes and two through holes on the side facing the pressure cap 2, corresponding to the pressure cap 2. The connection between the pressure cap 2 and the support 3 is completed by passing the wing screw 6 through the through hole and screwing it into the threaded hole.
