Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of filter cabinet equipment, and in particular to a quick-connect cable assembly for filter cabinets. Background Technology

[0002] In power systems and automation equipment, filter cabinets are critical power quality management devices, and the arrangement and fixation of their internal cables are of paramount importance. Traditionally, after the cables are laid out inside the filter cabinet, plastic cable ties are used to securely bind them to the cabinet's support structure. The main purpose of this method is to ensure the stability and reliability of the cables, preventing loosening of the connection between the cables and electrical components during long-term operation or under external forces, thereby ensuring the normal operation and electrical safety of the filter cabinet.

[0003] However, this traditional cable fixing method has gradually revealed some shortcomings in practical applications. Firstly, removing the plastic cable ties becomes a relatively cumbersome step when the filter cabinet needs maintenance or repair. Maintenance personnel typically need to use tools such as scissors or pliers to cut the ties, which not only increases the complexity of maintenance but may also cause unnecessary damage to the cables. More importantly, as a disposable fixing component, once cut, the plastic cable ties cannot be reused, undoubtedly increasing material consumption and waste. Furthermore, after maintenance, to re-secure the cables, maintenance personnel have to use new plastic cable ties. This process not only repeats the tedious disassembly operation but also further exacerbates material consumption. In the long run, this traditional cable fixing method not only increases the maintenance cost of the filter cabinet but also fails to meet current societal requirements for environmental protection and sustainable development. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention proposes a quick-connect cable assembly for a filter cabinet, which aims to improve the convenience of fixing cables in the filter cabinet and reduce maintenance costs.

[0005] The solution provided by this utility model includes:

[0006] A quick-connect cable assembly for a filter cabinet includes:

[0007] Clamping base and clamping device;

[0008] The clamping base is provided with two opposing first clamping plates, and a first clamping groove for the cable to be inserted is formed between the two first clamping plates. The outer side wall of the first clamping plate is provided with a first ratchet.

[0009] The clamping component includes a base plate, on which two opposing second clamping plates are provided, the two second clamping plates forming a second clamping groove, the inner sidewall of the second clamping plate being provided with a second ratchet for engaging with the first ratchet, the base plate being provided with a pressing part for pressing the cable located in the first clamping groove; a pressure plate is integrally connected to the end of the second clamping plate.

[0010] Two second clamping plates are held on the outside of two first clamping plates, and the two second clamping plates are moved away from each other by pressing the pressure plate.

[0011] As a further optional solution, the first clamp plate has multiple first ratchet teeth, the second clamp plate has multiple second ratchet teeth, and the opening of the second clamping groove becomes narrower towards the bottom of the groove.

[0012] As a further optional solution, the pressure plate includes a bending transition section, a reverse extension section and a pressure-bearing section connected in sequence;

[0013] The first end of the bending transition section is connected to the end of the second clamping plate, and the bending transition section bends outward from the second clamping plate and in the direction of the substrate.

[0014] The first end of the reverse extension section is connected to the second end of the curved transition section, and the second end of the reverse extension section is inclined toward the second clamping plate.

[0015] The first end of the pressure-bearing section is connected to the second end of the reverse extension section. The second end of the pressure-bearing section is inclined away from the second clamping plate so that an arched support is formed between the pressure-bearing section and the reverse extension section. The support corresponds to the outer side of the substrate.

[0016] As a further alternative, the inner wall of the first clamping groove is provided with multiple friction strips arranged along its length.

[0017] As a further alternative, the extrusion portion on the substrate is a protrusion provided along the length direction of the substrate.

[0018] As a further optional solution, two baffles are provided on each side of the clamping seat, and the two baffles on the same side are spaced apart along the length direction of the first clamping groove; when the second clamping plate is provided outside the first clamping plate, the second clamping plate is located between the two baffles.

[0019] As a further optional solution, the clamping base is provided with a T-shaped groove, which is located on the opposite side of the first clamping groove on the clamping base.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the quick-connect cable assembly for the filter cabinet of this application has at least the following advantages:

[0021] This filter cabinet uses a quick-connect cable assembly to clamp the cable into the first clamping slot of the mounting base via clamping fasteners, thus securing the cable. During maintenance or repair of the filter cabinet, personnel simply press the pressure plate to move the two second clamping plates apart, easily releasing the cable without the need for laborious cutting of plastic cable ties as in traditional methods. This not only simplifies maintenance procedures but also reduces the potential risk of cable damage. Furthermore, compared to traditional disposable plastic cable ties, it significantly reduces material consumption, meeting the requirements of environmental protection and sustainable development.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0030] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0031] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or that the first feature is in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "on top of," and "over" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature.

[0032] refer to Figure 1-3 This utility model discloses a quick-connect cable assembly for a filter cabinet, including a clamping base 1 and a clamping member 2. The clamping base 1 is provided with two opposing first clamping plates 11, and a first clamping groove 12 is formed between the two first clamping plates 11 for the cable to be inserted. The outer side wall of the first clamping plate 11 is provided with a first ratchet 13. The clamping member 2 includes a base plate 21, on which two opposing second clamping plates 22 are provided. The two second clamping plates 22 form a second clamping groove 23. The inner side wall of the second clamping plate 22 is provided with a second ratchet 24 for engaging with the first ratchet 13. The base plate 21 is provided with a pressing part 211 for pressing the cable located in the first clamping groove 12. A pressure plate 25 is integrally connected to the end of the second clamping plate 22. The two second clamping plates 22 are clamped on the outside of the two first clamping plates 11, and the two second clamping plates 22 are moved away from each other by pressing the pressure plate 25.

[0033] Specifically, the clamping seat 1 is pre-fixed on the bracket inside the filter cabinet. When it is necessary to fix the cable, the cable is first inserted into the first clamping groove 12, and then the opening of the second clamping groove 23 on the clamping member 2 is aligned with the clamping seat 1. The clamping member 2 is then pressed onto the clamping seat 1, so that the two first clamping plates 11 enter the second clamping groove 23 of the clamping member 2 until the first ratchet 13 and the second ratchet 24 are engaged, so that the clamping member 2 cannot be removed from the clamping seat 1. At this time, the squeezing part 211 on the clamping member 2 clamps the cable located in the first clamping groove 12, so that the cable is fixed and prevented from being pulled loose.

[0034] When it is necessary to remove the cable, the two second clamping plates 22 can be moved away from each other by pressing the pressure plate 25, so that the second ratchet 24 is separated from the first ratchet 13, thereby removing the clamping device 2 and pulling out the cable on the clamping seat 1.

[0035] In this way, the filter cabinet uses a quick-connect cable assembly to clamp the cable into the first clamping groove 12 of the clamping seat 1 via the clamping fastener 2, thus achieving cable clamping and fixation. During maintenance or repair of the filter cabinet, maintenance personnel only need to press the pressure plate 25 to move the two second clamping plates 22 away from each other, easily releasing the cable without the need for laborious cutting of plastic cable ties as in traditional methods. This not only simplifies the maintenance process but also reduces the potential risk of cable damage; furthermore, compared to traditional disposable plastic cable ties, it significantly reduces material consumption, meeting the requirements of environmental protection and sustainable development.

[0036] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first clamping plate 11 has multiple first ratchet teeth 13, the second clamping plate 22 has multiple second ratchet teeth 24, and the opening of the second clamping groove 23 becomes narrower towards the bottom of the groove.

[0037] Both the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 22 are capable of elastic deformation. When the two first clamping plates 11 enter the second clamping groove 23, the two second clamping plates 22 will press the first clamping plates 11 inward, making the two first clamping plates 11 clamp the cable more tightly. Furthermore, the deeper the first clamping plates 11 enter the second clamping groove 23, the greater the pressure of the two second clamping plates 22 on the first clamping plates 11, resulting in a greater clamping force on the cable. In this way, the clamping stability of the cable is further improved, and it can adapt to cables of different sizes to a certain extent.

[0038] In some embodiments, to facilitate the opening of the two second clamping plates 22 so that the clamping member 2 can be separated from the clamping base 1, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the pressure plate 25 includes a bending transition section 251, a reverse extension section 252, and a pressure-bearing section 253 connected in sequence; the first end of the bending transition section 251 is connected to the end of the second clamping plate 22, and the bending transition section 251 bends outward from the second clamping plate 22 and in the direction of the substrate 21; the first end of the reverse extension section 252 is connected to the second end of the bending transition section 251, and the second end of the reverse extension section 252 is inclined towards the second clamping plate 22; the first end of the pressure-bearing section 253 is connected to the second end of the reverse extension section 252, and the second end of the pressure-bearing section 253 is inclined away from the second clamping plate 22, so that an arched support portion 254 is formed between the pressure-bearing section 253 and the reverse extension section 252, and the support portion 254 corresponds to the outer side of the substrate 21.

[0039] When it is necessary to remove the cable, two fingers can be used to press the two pressure sections 253 respectively. When the pressure section 253 is pressed, the support part 254 will abut against the outside of the base plate 21, and the pressure section 253 will use the support part 254 as a fulcrum to tilt the reverse extension section 252 outward. The reverse extension section 252 will drive the end of the second clamping plate 22 to open outward through the bending transition section 251. In this way, the two second clamping plates 22 can be easily opened, and the clamping fastener 2 can be removed.

[0040] In some embodiments, to improve the clamping stability of the cable within the first clamping groove 12, such as Figure 2 As shown, the inner wall of the first clamping groove 12 is provided with multiple friction strips 14 arranged along its length. This further ensures that the cable cannot rotate within the first clamping groove 12.

[0041] Specifically, in the above scheme, the pressing portion 211 on the substrate 21 is a protrusion provided along the length direction of the substrate 21.

[0042] In some embodiments, to prevent the clamping member 2 from sliding along its length and accidentally disengaging from the clamping base 1, such as... Figure 2 As shown, two baffles 15 are respectively provided on both sides of the clamping base 1. The two baffles 15 located on the same side are spaced apart along the length direction of the first clamping groove 12. When the second clamping plate 22 is located outside the first clamping plate 11, the second clamping plate 22 is located between the two baffles 15.

[0043] Thus, the baffle 15 prevents the clamping component 2 from sliding along its length. Only by spreading the two second clamping plates 22 can the clamping component 2 be removed from the clamping seat 1, thereby improving the installation stability of the clamping component 2 on the clamping seat 1.

[0044] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the clamping base 1 is provided with a T-shaped groove 16, which is located on the opposite side of the first clamping groove 12 on the clamping base 1. In this embodiment, the nut of the bolt 200 can be placed in the T-shaped groove 16, and then the bolt 200 passes through the bracket 100 and is threadedly connected to the nut 300, thereby locking the clamping base 1 onto the bracket 100. Of course, in other embodiments, the clamping base 1 can also be fixed on the bracket by other conventional connection methods, such as welding, bonding, bolting, etc.

[0045] In the above embodiments, the descriptions of each embodiment have different focuses. For parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.

[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
