Detailed Implementation

[0024] 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.

[0025] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0026] Example 1

[0027] Regarding the aforementioned problem 1: In existing wire harness storage structures, most of the storage boxes are integrated structures, which can only adjust the internal space. The overall storage space is fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the actual needs of storing wire harnesses, thus resulting in insufficient flexibility in wire harness storage.

[0028] The solution is as follows: A wire harness storage mechanism for automotive wire harness production includes several storage boxes 1 and box covers 7. Connectors are provided at both ends of the storage boxes 1. The connectors include mounting groove 4 and connecting groove 2. A connecting plate 5 is connected to the mounting groove 4 through a rotating column 9. Several positioning grooves 11 and positioning pins 10 are respectively provided on both sides of the storage boxes 1. A connecting plate 6 is provided in the middle of the bottom of both ends of the box cover 7. A mounting groove 8 is provided in the middle of both ends of the top of the storage boxes 1. A sealing ring 13 is provided on the bottom of the box cover 7. Several telescopic columns 15 are evenly distributed on the bottom of the box cover 7. A pressure plate 12 is provided between the bottoms of the telescopic columns 15.

[0029] Furthermore, cable port holes 3 are provided in the middle of both ends of the storage box 1, the outer dimensions of the box cover 7 are the same as those of the storage box 1, and several buffer blocks are evenly glued to the bottom of the storage box 1. The buffer blocks are made of rubber.

[0030] Furthermore, the adjacent mounting slot 4 corresponds to the position of the connecting slot 2. The rotating column 9 is threadedly connected to the mounting slot 4, and the connecting plate 5 is rotatably connected to the rotating column 9. Both ends of the connecting plate 5 are arc-shaped structures, and the ends of the connecting plate 5 are bolted to the adjacent connecting slot 2.

[0031] Furthermore, the positioning pin 10 is inserted into the adjacent positioning groove 11 and is magnetically connected to it. The outer edge of the positioning pin 10 is covered with a rubber tube. Specifically, the rubber tube can increase the friction (damping) between the positioning pin 10 and the positioning groove 11, which serves to temporarily fix the storage box 1. The telescopic pin 15 is equipped with a spring. The size of the pressure plate 12 is smaller than that of the fixed top plate 21. Specifically, the pressure plate 12, together with the telescopic pin 15, can apply a certain pressure to the fixed top plate 21, as well as the first partition plate 19 and the second partition plate 23, which can fix the first partition plate 19 as a whole and prevent shaking. The pressure plate 12 is located on top of the fixed top plate 21.

[0032] Example 2

[0033] Regarding the second problem to be solved above: the phenomenon that automotive wiring harnesses are piled up messily in the storage box and cannot be properly separated.

[0034] The solution is as follows: Two fixing slots 16 are symmetrically arranged on the inner walls of both sides of the storage box 1. Fixing posts 17 are installed on the fixing slots 16, and connecting blocks 18 are movably connected to the fixing posts 17. A first partition 19 is installed between the connecting blocks 18, and several second partitions 23 are sequentially placed on the top of the first partition 19. Specifically, as follows... Figure 4 As shown, the wire harness is separated and stored using partition 19 and partition 23, which facilitates storage and prevents tangling. A fixed top plate 21 is provided on the top of partition 23. Two connecting strips 22 are provided on the top of both partition 19 and partition 23. Two connecting grooves 20 are symmetrically provided on the bottom of partition 23 and the bottom of the fixed top plate 21. Damping is provided between the connecting block 18 and the fixed post 17. Specifically, the connecting block 18 will not move when there is no force on the fixed post 17; it can only move when force is applied. The partitions 19 and partition 23... Both ends are right-angled curved structures. The first partition plate 19 and the second partition plate 23 are fitted with clips 24. Specifically, the clips 23 are inserted into the first partition plate 19 and the second partition plate 23 using inserts. The specific function of the clips 23 is to separate the sub-wire harnesses branching off from the wire harness to avoid affecting the main wire harness. At the same time, it can also fix longer wire harnesses in a "U" shape to improve the convenience of storage. The middle part of the clips 24 is curved. The second connecting plate 26 is located on the second mounting groove 28 and is connected to it by bolts. The connecting strip 22 and the connecting groove 20 are both "T" shaped structures. The connecting strip 22 is connected to the adjacent connecting groove 20.

[0035] Working principle: During operation, firstly, based on the installation location and the number of wire harnesses, determine the number of dividing plates 23 and the number of storage boxes 1. Next, remove connecting plate 5 from mounting slot 4, place the storage boxes 1 side by side, and simultaneously insert positioning pins 10 into positioning slots 11. Move connecting plate 5 to the connecting slot 2 on the adjacent storage box 1, and connect it to the connecting slot 2 with bolts through connecting plate 5, thus connecting and fixing each storage box 1. Then, place the wire harness on dividing plate 1. 9. Move the first partition plate 19 to the top of the storage box 1 via the connecting block 19 and the fixing post 17, and plug the port into the cable port hole 3. Fix the branch wires on the wire harness via the clip 24. After completion, connect the second partition plate 23 via the connecting strip plate 22 and the connecting groove 20, and place the wire harness in the manner shown on the first partition plate 19 for storage. Finally, connect the fixing top plate 21 to the second partition plate 23, and connect the box cover 7 to the storage box 1 via the connecting plate 6.

[0036] The present invention comprises a storage box-1, a connecting groove-2, a cable port hole-3, a mounting groove one-4, a connecting plate one-5, a connecting plate two-6, a box cover-7, a mounting groove two-8, a rotating column-9, a positioning insert-10, a positioning groove-11, a pressure plate-12, a sealing ring-13, a telescopic column-15, a fixing groove-16, a fixing column-17, a connecting block-18, a partition plate one-19, a connecting groove-20, a fixing top plate-21, a connecting strip plate-22, a partition plate two-23, and a locking block-24. All components are general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structure and principles can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods. The problem solved by this invention is... In cable harness storage structures, the storage boxes are mostly integrated, allowing only internal space adjustments. The overall storage space is fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the actual needs of cable harness storage, thus lacking flexibility in cable harness storage. This utility model, through the combination of the aforementioned components, allows for the determination of the number of storage boxes and adjustment of the overall volume of the storage boxes according to actual installation and storage needs, improving the adaptability of storage and use. The storage boxes are connected and fixed by connectors, facilitating connection and fixation. At the same time, the cable harnesses are separated and fixed inside the storage boxes by partitions one and two, effectively preventing cable harness tangling and improving the adaptability and convenience of storage and use.
