[0029] Please see Figures 1 to 3The present invention provides a cable reel. A cable reel includes a supporting base plate 1, a central winding portion 2, an annular limiting portion 3, and a positioning portion 4. The supporting base plate 1 has a mounting surface 11. The central winding portion 2 is located on the mounting surface 11 and is fixedly connected to the supporting base plate 1. The annular limiting portion 3 is located on the mounting surface 11 and is fixedly connected to the supporting base plate 1. The annular limiting portion 3 surrounds the central winding portion 2 and has a receiving cavity 31 for accommodating cables between it and the central winding portion 2. Both sides of the annular limiting portion 3 have through-holes 32 for cables to pass through or exit, and the through-holes 32 communicate with the receiving cavity 31. The positioning portion 4 is mounted on the central winding portion 2 and is located above the receiving cavity 31. The positioning portion 4 is used for passing through and fixing the steel strand.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the cable reel provided by this utility model, when installing a cable between two utility poles, has one end connected to one utility pole, and the other end passing through a through-hole 32 of the annular limiting part 3 into the receiving cavity 31. The cable is wound around the central winding part 2 multiple times until the cable in the receiving cavity 31 reaches the reserved length. Then, the other end of the cable passes through another through-hole 32 on the annular limiting part 3, so that the cable passes through the receiving cavity 31 and moves towards the other utility pole, so that the other end of the cable is connected to the other utility pole. Finally, the positioning part 4 on the central winding part 2 is fixedly connected to the steel strand to fix the cable reel. Two cable reels can also be used together. Two reels are arranged side-by-side with spacing between them. One end of the cable passes through the through-hole 32 of one reel and winds along the central winding portion 2 of that reel. After a sufficient number of turns, the cable exits through the other through-hole 32. Then, the cable extends towards the other reel and passes through its through-hole 32, winds along the central winding portion 2 of that reel, and exits through the other through-hole 32 after a sufficient number of turns. This structure ensures sufficient cable is available for backup even at long distances. In this way, the reserved cable is conveniently and reliably wound into the receiving cavity 31 formed by the mounting surface 11, the annular limiting portion 3, and the central winding portion 2. Cable storage is unrestricted, and the positioning portion 4 securely connects the reel to the steel strand, ensuring a firm fixation and preventing it from easily falling off, thus providing high safety.

[0031] The cable reel is made of insulating material with excellent insulation properties; preferably, it is made of a combination of polyethylene, fiberglass, and UV-resistant materials, which is lightweight yet robust, provides excellent insulation, and is UV resistant. After the cable is wound onto the reel, it is secured to the reel using plastic or stainless steel cable ties. This type of reel is suitable for all types of fiber optic cables, such as overhead fiber or all-dielectric self-supporting (ADSS) fiber. This type of reel is simpler and faster to install, uses fewer cable ties, and has a wider installation range, allowing it to be installed between two utility poles or fixed on a utility pole for cable collection, making cable laying and installation more convenient. The receiving cavity 31 can hold multiple cables to enable more cable operations or the installation of joints, saving time and money, and extending its service life.

[0032] Please see Figures 1 to 3 As a specific embodiment of the cable reel provided by this utility model, the annular limiting part 3 includes a plurality of annular and spaced baffles 33, each baffle 33 being perpendicular to the mounting surface 11 and its lower end fixed to the supporting base plate 1; a through-hole 32 is provided between two adjacent baffles 33; that is, the plurality of baffles 33 are spaced apart and arranged in an annular shape around the central winding part 2, so that the annular limiting part formed by the plurality of baffles 33 is discontinuously arranged, resulting in a smaller weight; and the through-hole 32 is naturally formed between the spaced baffles 33, without the need for special processing. The baffles 33 are arranged perpendicular to the mounting surface 11, so that the receiving cavity 31 between the baffles 33 and the central winding part 2 can store a large amount of cable, while making it difficult for the cable to fall out of the receiving cavity 31.

[0033] Please see Figures 1 to 3 As a specific embodiment of the coiler provided by this utility model, the baffle 33 is integrally formed with the supporting base plate 1. The baffle 33 is bent from the outside of the supporting base plate 1 toward the mounting surface 11. That is, when processing the baffle 33, multiple spaced plates are arranged on the outer edge of the supporting base plate 1, and the plates are coplanar with the mounting surface 11. Then, the multiple plates are bent until the plates are perpendicular to the mounting surface 11, and the plates are formed into baffle 33, which improves the connection strength between the multiple baffles 33 and the supporting base plate 1.

[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 3In one specific embodiment of the coiler provided by this utility model, the central winding portion 2 protrudes outward from the end face of the supporting base plate 1. The central winding portion 2 has a through-hole 21 and a reinforcing plate 22 installed in the through-hole 21. The supporting base plate 1 is a thin plate structure, placed horizontally, with its upper end face being the mounting surface 11. The lower end face of the supporting base plate 1 protrudes upward, thereby forming a raised central winding portion 2 on the mounting surface 11. In this way, the supporting base plate 1 and the central winding portion 2 are integrated into a single structure, improving the connection strength between the two and the load-bearing capacity of the entire coiler. Furthermore, the through-hole 21 is provided on the central winding portion 2, and the reinforcing plate 22 is installed in the through-hole 21. The reinforcing plate 22 ensures the support capacity of the central winding portion 2 while reducing the weight of the coiler. The connection port 21 is provided so that after the cable is wound inside the receiving cavity 31, the cable tie can be passed through the connection port 21 to tie and fix the cable to the central winding part 2 and the support base plate 1, making the fixation more reliable and stable.

[0035] Please see Figure 1 In one specific embodiment of the coiler provided by this utility model, there are two positioning parts 4, symmetrically arranged on the central winding part 2; the two positioning parts 4 are located on both sides of the reinforcing plate 22; the positioning parts 4 are linearly arranged on the central winding part 2, thus allowing the steel strand to pass through the two positioning parts 4 simultaneously, achieving two-point positioning of the steel strand and improving the fixing effect between the coiler and the steel strand. Furthermore, the two positioning parts 4 are located on both sides of the length direction of the reinforcing plate 22, so that the steel strand between the two positioning parts 4 abuts against the reinforcing plate 22.

[0036] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 In one specific embodiment of the coiler provided by this utility model, the positioning part 4 is a long strip structure and is perpendicular to the length direction of the steel strand. The two ends of the positioning part 4 are provided with fixing holes 41 that penetrate the central winding part 2 and the positioning part 4. Fasteners for installing and fixing the steel strand are provided on the two fixing holes 41. When installing the steel strand, the steel strand is placed close to the positioning part 4 and positioned between the two fixing holes 41. Then, the two ends of the fasteners are passed through the two fixing holes 41 respectively, and the steel strand is tightened onto the central winding part 2, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the steel strand and the central winding part 2. The fasteners are cable ties, which are tightened and fixed onto the central winding part 2 after passing through the two fixing holes 41.

[0037] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3As a specific embodiment of the coiler provided by this utility model, the positioning part 4 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 42 for accommodating the steel strand. The axis of the arc-shaped groove 42 is coplanar with the center line perpendicular to the center winding part 2. The fixing hole 41 is located on both sides of the arc-shaped groove 42. Each positioning part 4 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 42. When installing the steel strand, the steel strand is installed into the two arc-shaped grooves 42, making the installation of the steel strand more stable and preventing it from protruding too much from the positioning part 4. It also makes the cable tie more secure in fixing the steel strand. The axis of the arc-shaped groove 42 is coplanar with the center line perpendicular to the center winding part 2, so that the installed steel strand passes through the center of the center winding part 2. After the steel strand is installed, the center of gravity of the entire coiler will not change significantly.

[0038] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As a specific embodiment of the cable coiler provided by this utility model, the reinforcing plate 22 has a cross structure. The central winding portion 2 is also provided with two fixing protrusions 23, a pressure-resistant rod 24 installed between the two fixing protrusions 23, and a fixing member 25 for fixing and connecting the pressure-resistant rod 24 and the fixing protrusions 23. The two fixing protrusions 23 are symmetrically arranged, and the two positioning portions 4 are symmetrically arranged. The two fixing protrusions 23 and the two positioning portions 4 correspond to the four ends of the reinforcing plate 22, respectively. The cross-shaped reinforcing plate 22 is located inside the connecting opening 21, so that the two positioning portions 4 are symmetrically arranged on the outer sides of both ends of the reinforcing plate 22. At the same time, fixing protrusions 23 are respectively provided on the outer sides of the other two ends of the reinforcing plate 22, and a pressure-resistant rod 24 is installed between the two fixing protrusions 23. The two ends of the pressure-resistant rod 24 are fixed to the two fixing protrusions 23 by the fixing member 25. When winding a large amount of cable, the cable exerts a moving compressive force on the central winding portion 2, thus the pressure-resistant rod 24 improves the compressive strength of the entire central winding portion 2. The upper surface of the fixed protrusion 23 is higher than the steel strand, so that the steel strand and the compression bar 24 are arranged alternately. Both ends of the compression bar 24 are provided with mounting holes 28, and the fixed protrusion 23 is provided with screw holes 27. The fastener 25 is a screw, which is used to pass through the mounting hole 28 and threaded into the screw hole 27 to achieve a fixed connection between the compression bar 24 and the fixed protrusion 23.

[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one specific embodiment of the cable reel provided by this utility model, the supporting base plate 1 is a circular plate, and the outer surface of the central winding part 2 is circular and concentrically arranged with the supporting base plate 1; the annular limiting part 3 is fixed on the side of the supporting base plate 1; that is, the entire cable reel has a circular structure, which facilitates the use of the cable reel by the operator. Furthermore, the central winding part 2 is also circular, and the annular limiting part 3 is arranged around the central winding part 2, so that the receiving cavity 31 has no sharp corners or edges, and the cable is not easily damaged when winding the cable.

[0040] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 As a specific embodiment of the coiler provided by this utility model, weight-reduction process holes 26 are provided on the bottom surface of the receiving cavity 31 and the central winding part 2; that is, multiple weight-reduction process holes 26 are opened on the supporting base plate 1 and on the outer side surface of the central winding part 2, thereby effectively reducing the weight of the entire coiler and making the entire coiler more flexible and easier to operate. Specifically, the multiple weight-reduction process holes 26 are located on the bottom surface and side wall of the receiving groove, so that the receiving cavity 31 has good ventilation performance.

[0041] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
