[0020] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other.

[0021] The following detailed description is exemplary and intended to provide further detailed explanation of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, all technical terms used in this invention have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to this invention.

[0022] Example:

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This embodiment proposes a cable storage assembly for wind turbine generators, which can effectively store cable bundles in a designated location, preventing cables from becoming loose during long-term outdoor use. The structure includes an integrally molded mounting plate 2 and a storage rack 3. The mounting plate 2 is used to fix the cable storage assembly in the designated location, while the storage rack 3 is used to store the cable bundle 1. Please refer to the relevant documentation. Figure 1 In use, the cable bundle 1 is fixed by the storage rack 3. The cable bundle 1 includes cables 101, sheaths 102, and hose clamps 103. Multiple bundles of cables 101 are wrapped together by the sheaths 102, and the outer side of the sheaths 102 is fixed by the hose clamps 103. There are two storage racks 3, which are arranged in strips on the upper and lower parts of the mounting plate 2, further improving the stability of the cable bundle 1 during storage.

[0024] Please refer to the following: Figures 2 to 3The storage rack 3 includes an inner U-shaped frame 301, a rotating rod 302, a slot 303, a rotating shaft 304, a chuck 305, an elastic protective pad 306, and an elastic protective pad 307. The inner U-shaped frame 301 has a U-shaped groove inside, with the opening of the U-shaped groove located on the side away from the mounting plate 2. The rotating rod 302 is rotatably connected to one side of the opening of the U-shaped groove. In this embodiment, the rotation axis of the rotating rod 302 is perpendicular to the surface of the mounting plate 2. The other side of the opening of the U-shaped groove has a slot 303 that matches the end of the rotating rod 302. The chuck 305 is rotatably connected to the side of the slot 303 via the rotating shaft 304. Here, the chuck 305 has a fan-shaped disc structure. When the chuck 305 rotates along the rotating shaft 304 to a certain position, the rotating rod 302 can rotate out of the slot 303. When the chuck 305 rotates to other positions, the rotating rod 302 is stuck by the chuck 305 and cannot rotate out of the slot 303. To facilitate rotation, the sidewall of the chuck 305 can be textured with longitudinal grooves to increase friction on the contact surface. It should be noted that to prevent damage caused by rigid contact between the outer wall of the cable bundle 1 and the inner wall of the U-shaped groove of the rotating rod 302 and the inner wall of the inner U-shaped frame 301, elastic protective pads 306 and 307 are respectively attached to the inner walls of the rotating rod 302 and the inner wall of the inner U-shaped frame 301. These elastic protective pads can be made of rubber. The elastic protective pads not only prevent rigid contact, but their elastic deformation characteristics can also accommodate cable bundles 1 within a certain radius, further improving the applicability of the storage rack 3.

[0025] Please see Figure 4 The mounting plate 2 includes a plate body 201 and mounting holes 202. In this embodiment, there are four mounting holes 202, which are symmetrically distributed at the four corners of the plate body 201. The mounting holes 202 adopt a slot design, which can adjust the position of the bolt fixing according to the actual situation.

[0026] In use, this solution first installs the mounting plate 2 in the designated position by fixing it with bolts along the mounting holes 202. Then, the rotating rod 302 is opened, and the cable bundle 1 is placed into the U-shaped groove of the inner U-shaped frame 301. After ensuring the cable bundle 1 is fully inserted, the rotating rod 302 is rotated, causing the chuck 305 to rotate along the rotating shaft 304 to the designated position, allowing the rotating rod 302 to fall into the slot 303. The chuck 305 is then rotated again to limit the end of the rotating rod 302, thus achieving the storage of the cable bundle 1. This solution achieves cable storage and fixation, avoiding the situation where cable ties break and the cables become loose when simply fixing cables with cable ties. Furthermore, both the chuck 305 and the rotating rod 302 are manually operated, allowing for quick removal of the cable bundle 1 without additional installation tools. The elastic protective pad made of rubber not only prevents rigid contact between the cable surface and the inner wall of the frame but also accommodates cable bundles of different radii, demonstrating good applicability.

Therefore, the disclosed embodiments described above are merely illustrative in all respects and are not the only ones. All modifications within the scope of this utility model or its equivalents are included in this utility model.

[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and not to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can still be made to the specific implementation of this utility model.
