Abstract
Description

[0002] The flexible wire, taking a data line as an example, has more and more winding turns and a larger diameter in the winding process.

[0039] Example 1
[0040] This embodiment is a basic structure of a storage device, specifically, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the storage device includes a housing 1, which has a passage or opening for the flexible line to enter or exit. The flexible line is taken as an example of a data line. When the data line is stored in the housing 1, the housing 1 is required to be thin and small.

The clamping plate and the outer periphery of the winding drum have a gap. A part of the flexible line is arranged between the gap of the clamping plate and the winding drum, so that the flexible line is fixed by the winding wheel 3. Alternatively, as a second embodiment, the winding wheel 3 includes a winding drum, which is provided with a notch. A part of the flexible line is arranged in the notch, so that the flexible line is fixed by the winding wheel 3.

[0044] Specifically, the housing 1 is provided with a control device for changing the speed of the flexible line when winding or unwinding. The control device changes the speed of the flexible line when winding, so that the incoming flexible line is consistent with the winding speed. Alternatively, the control device makes the flexible line between the clamping body and the winding wheel 3 in a taut state, thereby reducing or avoiding the gap generated when the flexible line is wound, so that the flexible line is stably wound and can be completely stored.

Alternatively, sprockets are installed on the first wheel 4 and the rotating wheel 2, and a transmission belt is a chain.
[0046] As another embodiment, the first wheel 4 is installed in the shell 1, but the first wheel 4 is not in direct or indirect contact with the rotating wheel 2.
[0047] As still another embodiment, the first driving device and the second driving device are installed on the shell 1, the output shaft of the first driving device is connected with the rotating wheel 2, and the output shaft of the second driving device is connected with the first clamp body 5. The rotation of the rotating wheel 2 and the rotation of the first clamp body 5 are controlled by two independent driving devices respectively, which can ensure that the length of the flexible line entering per unit time is consistent with the length of the flexible line winding per unit time, reduce or avoid the gap generated when the flexible line is wound, ensure the stability of the flexible line winding, and enable the flexible line to be wound for a longer length.
[0048] The above-mentioned driving device includes but is not limited to a motor, a rotary cylinder, a manual handle, etc. The motor mainly adopts a motor type such as a speed reduction motor and a stepping motor.

The rotating body 13 is mounted in the housing 1 via a shaft, allowing the rotating body 13 to rotate around the shaft. A first elastic element 14 is installed in the housing 1. The first elastic element 14 contacts the rotating body 13. The first elastic element 14 acts as a power source, causing the tensioning wheel 12 to be pushed or pulled, so that the flexible wire from the clamp to the winding wheel 3 is in a taut state, ensuring that the flexible wire feeding speed is consistent with the winding speed, so that the flexible wire is wound stably and can be fully collected.
[0057] As one option, in this embodiment, an intermediate wheel 8 is installed between the first wheel 4 and the rotating wheel 2, so that the first wheel 4 can rotate following the rotating wheel 2.
[0058] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first elastic element 14 includes, but is not limited to, springs, rubber blocks, airbags, and other components.

[0063] Specifically, the mating wheel 22 and the mounting wheel are pulleys and the transmission belt 23 is a belt; or, the mating wheel 22 and the mounting wheel are synchronous pulleys and the transmission belt 23 is a synchronous belt; or, the mating wheel 22 and the mounting wheel are sprockets and the transmission belt 23 is a chain.
[0064] Example 4
[0065] like Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment is based on embodiment 1 and illustrates the structure of a more specific storage device.
[0066] The control device in this embodiment includes a Torsen differential 31. In one embodiment of the Torsen differential 31, the input end of the Torsen differential 31 is connected to the rotating wheel 2, and the output end of the Torsen differential is connected to the first wheel 4 or the first clamp 5. The rotation of the rotating wheel 2 drives the first wheel 4 to rotate. In another embodiment of the Torsen differential 31, the input end of the Torsen differential 31 is connected to the first wheel 4 or the first clamp 5, and the output end of the Torsen differential 31 is connected to the rotating wheel 2. This allows the speed of the flexible wire winding to be changed during the winding process, ensuring that the wire feeding speed is consistent with the winding speed.

[0068] Example 5
[0069] like Figures 7-8 As shown, this embodiment is based on embodiment 1 and illustrates the structure of a more specific storage device.
[0070] The control device in this embodiment is a coil spring 44, which is installed in the cavity of the winding wheel 3. One end of the coil spring 44 is fixed to the column of the housing 1, and the other end of the coil spring 44 is fixed to the winding wheel 3. As a fixing method, the end of the coil spring is fixed to the column or the winding wheel 3 by bending.
[0071] The above structure can realize the storage of the flexible line. With the drive device arranged on the first wheel, the flexible line can be driven to extend out of the housing 1. When the flexible line is retracted, the energy stored in the coil spring 44 can also pull the flexible line back into the housing 1.
[0072] As a further implementation plan.
[0073] This embodiment also includes a fixed body 41 fixed on the housing 1 and a movable body 43 movably arranged on the housing 1. The second clamp 7 connects to the movable body 43, and a second elastic member 42 is installed between the fixed body 41 and the movable body 43.

[0075] As another detailed structure, the fixed body 41 of the embodiment has a plate for supporting the second elastic member 42, the plate has a connecting plate extending to the first clamping body 5, and the first clamping body 5 is connected to the connecting plate through a shaft, so that the first clamping body 5 can be supported at both the upper end and the lower end.
[0076] As a further detailed structure, the second clamping body 7 has a second wheel 6 at the lower end. The first wheel 4 and the second wheel 6 are in meshing or contact, so that when the first wheel 4 rotates, the second wheel 6 can also rotate, and the first clamping body 5 on the first wheel 4 and the second clamping body 7 on the second wheel 6 can rotate synchronously.
[0077] In the embodiment, the second elastic member 42 includes but is not limited to springs, rubber blocks, air bags and other parts.
