Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe dragging technology, and more specifically, to an openable corrugated pipe dragging system. Background Technology
[0002] To protect cables and other wires, they can be arranged inside a cable tray. A cable tray is a conduit used to protect and guide cable laying, primarily preventing cable wear, twisting, or breakage due to repeated movement. It is often used in situations requiring frequent bending, dragging, or reciprocating motion. A traditional cable tray structure, such as the corrugated tube dust-free cable chain shell disclosed in patent publication number CN222351314U, includes an upper shell and a lower shell. Both the upper and lower shells have snap-fit strips on their outer sides along their length. Alignment posts and alignment holes are respectively provided between two interlocking snap-fit strips. Furthermore, multiple clips and locking holes are evenly distributed between two interlocking snap-fit strips along their length, with the alignment posts entering the alignment holes and the clips entering the locking holes. This patent uses multiple clips and holes, which need to be aligned and pressed into place one by one during assembly. Assembly and disassembly are troublesome, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the mold is complex and costly. If the alignment post is slightly deformed or the alignment hole is misaligned, the clip may not be able to be inserted smoothly. Furthermore, the clips are prone to loosening under conditions of large bending, which affects the protection effect of the cable. Utility Model Content

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0023] Please refer to Figure 1 The present invention provides an openable corrugated drag pipe, comprising a plurality of drag pipe bodies 1 connected end to end in sequence. The components of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Example 1
[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, each tow pipe body 1 can be assembled by interlocking the upper tow pipe 13 and the lower tow pipe 14 in the vertical direction. In two adjacent tow pipe bodies 1, the front end of one tow pipe body 1 is recessed on both sides, corresponding to the insertion protrusion 101 protruding at the rear end of the other tow pipe body 1, and the insertion protrusion 101 can be inserted. The interior of the tow pipe body 1 forms a cavity for the cable to pass through in the axial direction. The surface of each upper tow pipe 13 and each lower tow pipe 14 is formed by alternating arc-shaped peaks and valleys along its length.
[0026] The insertion protrusion 101 and the limiting slot 102 enable the connection between adjacent pipe bodies 1, allowing multiple pipe bodies 1 to be connected end to end to form a longer pipe for protecting cables and achieving modular splicing.
[0027] Preferably, both the upper trailing pipe 13 and the lower trailing pipe 14 can be made of plastic material, which has a certain degree of flexibility, is lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and has good insulation properties. Through the injection molding process, the pipe material undergoes plastic deformation under the action of the mold, which can form multiple arc-shaped peaks and troughs. The transition between the peaks and troughs and the outer edges are all treated with rounded chamfers to avoid stress concentration. In this embodiment, the peaks are all designed as smooth arc surfaces, and the inner side of the troughs can undergo elastic deformation when the trailing pipe body 1 is bent, maintaining the overall structural stability.
[0028] like Figure 3As shown, the upper cable 13 has snap-fit grooves 130 on both sides along its length, and the lower cable 14 has snap-fit protrusions 140 on both sides along its length corresponding to the snap-fit grooves 130. The lower cable 14 is snapped into the snap-fit grooves 130 on both sides of the upper cable 13 by the snap-fit protrusions 140 on both sides to achieve a fixed connection with the upper cable 13. This snap-fit connection is firm, and the upper cable 13 and the lower cable 14 can be separated and disassembled easily. It is convenient to open the cable duct body 1 when installing cables and close it after installation, realizing easy-pull operation.
[0029] Specifically, the fastening protrusion 140 of the lower drag tube 14 may include a wide side 141 and a narrow side 142 of the same length and staggered vertically in the axial direction. The wide side 141 at the tail end of the fastening protrusion 140 extends out of the narrow side 142 to form a wide side extension 1411, and the narrow side 142 at the head end of the fastening protrusion 140 extends out of the wide side 141 to form a narrow side extension 1421.
[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, the fastening groove 130 of the upper drag tube 13 may include a high-position bearing portion 131, a locking insertion portion 132, and a low-position abutting portion 133. The tail end of the fastening groove 130 is formed with a middle extension portion 134 that extends out of the high-position bearing portion 131 and the low-position abutting portion 133 and corresponds to the shape of the wide side extension portion 1411. The top of the opening at the head end of the fastening groove 130 is recessed inward and has a receiving groove portion 1301 that communicates with the locking insertion portion 132. The receiving groove portion 1301 communicates with the locking insertion portion 132. The placement part 132 together form a limiting slot 102. When the snap-fit protrusion 140 of the lower drag tube 14 is engaged in the snap-fit groove 130 of the upper drag tube 13, the wide side 141 of the snap-fit protrusion 140 is inserted into the snap-fit insertion part 132 of the snap-fit groove 130, the outer edge of the narrow side 142 of the snap-fit protrusion 140 abuts against the outer edge of the low abutment part 133 of the snap-fit groove 130, and the middle extension part 134 abuts against the wide side extension part 1411 to form an insertion protrusion 101.
[0031] The wide-side extension 1411 and the middle-position extension 134 cooperate to form an anti-detachment insertion protrusion 101 to prevent lateral detachment. The locking insertion part 132 is used to fix the wide side 141, and the low-position abutment part 133 abuts against the narrow side 142, effectively preventing the upper drag tube 13 and the lower drag tube 14 from loosening after closing.
[0032] Example 2
[0033] like Figure 5As shown, it may also include a fixing connector 16, which has two hollow structures with openings at both ends. The two fixing connectors 16 are detachably installed at the beginning and end ends of several pipe bodies 1. The fixing connectors 16 can fix the beginning and end ends of the pipe body 1 and the ends of its internal cables, so as to achieve a fixed connection with the equipment housing or other installation parts.
[0034] like Figure 6 As shown, each of the fixed joints 16 may include a first housing 161 and a second housing 162 arranged in a mirror image symmetrically. The inner sidewall of the first housing 161 and the second housing 162 near the tow pipe body 1 is provided with a limiting strip 1601 for locking with the trough of the outer sidewall of the upper tow pipe 13 and the lower tow pipe 14. One side edge of the first housing 161 and the second housing 162 is provided with a positioning hook 1602. The other side edge of the first housing 161 and the second housing 162 is provided with a positioning hole 1603 corresponding to the positioning hook 1602 and capable of locking. Both sides of the first housing 161 and the second housing 162 are provided with through mounting screw holes 1604. The other side of the first housing 161 and the second housing 162 away from the tow pipe body 1 is horizontally formed with a plurality of branch grooves 1605.
[0035] The first housing 161 and the second housing 162 are engaged in the positioning hole 1603 by the positioning hook 1602, which realizes quick assembly and can be fastened by inserting screws into the two mounting screw holes 1604, which has high stability.
[0036] Example 3
[0037] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the lower drag tube 14 may further include a plurality of support pads 15, each support pad 15 being formed and disposed on both sides of each crest on the bottom surface of the lower drag tube 14, and the bottom horizontal plane of each support pad 15 being higher than the horizontal plane of the bottom crest of the lower drag tube 14. In this third embodiment, the fixing joint 16 mentioned in the second embodiment can also be installed at both ends of the drag tube body 1 with support pads 15 in the lower drag tube 14.
[0038] Among them, the support pad 15 creates a certain gap between the tow pipe body 1 and the ground or other supporting surfaces, preventing the crests from directly contacting the ground, reducing wear, and extending the service life of the tow pipe.
[0039] In summary, the main body of this utility model consists of an upper and lower drag tube that are assembled and installed by snapping together with a snap-fit groove and a snap-fit protrusion. This allows multiple drag tube bodies to be connected end to end to form a longer pipe for cable protection and modular splicing. The upper and lower drag tubes are easy to disassemble, with an easy-pull design structure that can be opened by applying lateral force, making it convenient to put the cable into the drag tube and then close it. Its operation is simple, easy to install and disassemble, and has a good anti-detachment effect. Compared with the traditional drag tube design that uses a snap-fit and hole design, it has a lower manufacturing cost, more flexible installation, and is suitable for different application scenarios.
[0040] The above embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited to the above embodiments. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
