Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable tray technology, and in particular to a cable tray with cable separation function. Background Technology

[0002] Cable trays with cable separation functions play an indispensable role in various buildings, industrial sites, and infrastructure construction. They are primarily used for laying and protecting cables, preventing interference between cables by properly separating different types and specifications, and ensuring the stability and safety of power transmission and signal transmission. In building engineering, whether in residential, commercial, or large venues, cable trays are responsible for the orderly arrangement of various cables, ensuring the normal operation of lighting, power supply, and communication systems. In industrial fields, such as factories and mines, cable trays supply power and transmit control signals to complex production equipment, which is crucial for the continuity and reliability of production. Current practical applications typically require the following technologies:

[0003] 1. Reliable separation technology effectively separates different cables, preventing mutual interference;

[0004] 2. The robust cable tray structure technology ensures that the cables will not deform or be damaged when carrying them, thus ensuring the safety of the cables;

[0005] 3. Convenient installation and disassembly technology, facilitating quick installation and adjustment of cable trays in different scenarios;

[0006] 4. Good protective technology, such as dustproof, moisture-proof, and fireproof functions, to extend the service life of the cable;

[0007] 5. Flexible adjustment technology to adapt to different cable quantities, specifications and layout requirements.

[0008] Currently, various methods are used to achieve the cable separation function of cable trays. A common method is to install partitions inside the cable tray to separate the cables. Some designs use screws to directly fix the partitions inside the cable tray.

[0009] However, the above method has a prominent hardware structural problem: when installing the fixed partition, workers need to use tools to tighten the screws one by one, which is relatively cumbersome. In actual use, if the position of the partition needs to be adjusted due to changes in cable specifications or the addition of new cables, all the screws must be unscrewed, repositioned, and then tightened again. Since there are many screws, the entire adjustment process is very time-consuming and laborious, which seriously affects work efficiency. Moreover, frequent disassembly of screws can easily cause the screw holes to strip, reducing the stability of the partition fixation, which in turn affects the effect of cable separation and may cause problems such as cables squeezing and tangling, threatening the normal operation and service life of the cables. Utility Model Content

[0010] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a cable tray with cable separation function. It solves the problem that during the installation of fixed partitions, workers need to use tools to tighten screws one by one, which is relatively cumbersome. In actual use, if the cable specifications change or new cables are added, and the partition position needs to be adjusted, all screws must be unscrewed, repositioned, and then tightened again. Due to the large number of screws, the entire adjustment process is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, seriously affecting work efficiency. Moreover, frequent screw removal can easily lead to stripped screw holes, reducing the stability of the partition fixation and thus affecting the cable separation effect. This may cause problems such as cables squeezing and tangling, threatening the normal operation and service life of the cables.

[0011] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0012] A cable tray with cable separation function includes a cable tray body. Inside the cable tray body is a shielding mechanism for separating cable positions. The shielding mechanism includes three partition plates, all of which are slidably connected inside the cable tray body. Inside the cable tray body is a threaded mechanism for equidistantly adjusting the partition plates. The threaded mechanism includes an adjusting screw and a set of cross links. The adjusting screw is rotatably connected inside the cable tray body. The three partition plates are threaded to the outer surface of the adjusting screw. The set of cross links is disposed inside the three partition plates. A sliding cable tray cover is slidably connected to the outer surface of the cable tray body.

[0013] Preferably, the cable tray body has a set of through grooves inside, and the outer surface of the cable tray body is provided with a U-shaped frame.

[0014] Preferably, the outer surface of the U-shaped frame is fixedly connected with three external threaded rods, and the outer surfaces of the three external threaded rods are all threaded with tightening nuts.

[0015] Preferably, all three tightening nuts are disposed on the outer surface of the cable tray body, and a circular handle is fixedly connected inside the tightening nut.

[0016] Preferably, a set of rotating wheels is rotatably connected inside the U-shaped frame, and a round rod shaft is rotatably connected inside the U-shaped frame.

[0017] Preferably, a first sliding baffle is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the round rod shaft, and a ball bearing is sleeved on the outer surface of the first sliding baffle.

[0018] Preferably, a second sliding baffle is fitted onto the outer surface of the ball bearing, and the second sliding baffle is engaged inside the U-shaped frame.

[0019] Preferably, a tension spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the U-shaped frame, and the tension spring is sleeved on the outer surface of the second sliding baffle.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] 1. When adjusting the size of the partition space to meet different cable installation requirements, the adjusting screw is turned to drive a partition baffle connected to it to slide. Since the lower ends of the three partition baffles are rotatably connected to cross links, and the cross links are composed of multiple rotatably connected links, with each pair of links rotating within a partition baffle and installed in a cross manner, and each pair of links rotatably connected to the other two links, when one partition baffle slides, it will squeeze the cross links and cause them to deform. The displacement of the cross links will drive the other two partition baffles to slide synchronously, ultimately achieving equidistant adjustment of the three partition baffles, flexibly adapting to different cable laying requirements.

[0022] 2. When installing cables, place the cables inside the U-shaped frame. The cables should contact the surface of the rotating wheels inside the U-shaped frame. As workers pull the cables, the rotating wheels will assist in moving the cables, preventing direct contact between the cables and the surface of the cable tray body, thus preventing the cables from being scratched.

[0030] This application provides a cable tray with cable separation function, effectively solving the problem that during the installation of fixed partitions, workers need to use tools to tighten each screw individually, which is relatively cumbersome. In actual use, if the cable specifications change or new cables are added, and the partition position needs to be adjusted, all screws must be unscrewed, repositioned, and then tightened again. Due to the large number of screws, the entire adjustment process is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, seriously affecting work efficiency. Moreover, frequent screw removal can easily lead to stripped screw holes, reducing the stability of the partition fixation, thus affecting the cable separation effect and potentially causing problems such as cable squeezing and entanglement, threatening the normal operation of the cables. Regarding service life, when adjusting the size of the partition space to meet different cable installation requirements, the adjusting screw is turned to drive a partition baffle connected to it to slide. Since the lower ends of the three partition baffles are rotatably connected to cross links, and the cross links are composed of multiple rotatably connected links, with each pair of links rotating within a partition baffle and installed in a cross manner, and each pair of links rotatably connected to the other two links, when one partition baffle slides, it will squeeze the cross link and cause it to deform. The displacement of the cross link will drive the other two partition baffles to slide synchronously, ultimately achieving equidistant adjustment of the three partition baffles, flexibly adapting to different cable laying requirements.

[0031] Example

[0032] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the technical solution in this application embodiment effectively solves the problem that during the installation of fixed partitions, workers need to use tools to tighten each screw one by one, which is relatively cumbersome. In actual use, if the partition position needs to be adjusted due to changes in cable specifications or the addition of new cables, all screws must be unscrewed, repositioned, and then tightened again. Due to the large number of screws, the entire adjustment process is very time-consuming and laborious, seriously affecting work efficiency. Moreover, frequent screw removal can easily lead to stripped screw holes, reducing the stability of the partition fixation, thereby affecting the cable separation effect and potentially causing problems such as cable squeezing and entanglement, threatening the cable's safety. The technical issues concerning normal operation and service life are addressed as follows: A cable tray with cable separation function includes a cable tray body 11. Inside the cable tray body 11, a shielding mechanism for separating cable positions is provided. The shielding mechanism includes three separating baffles 12, all of which are slidably connected inside the cable tray body 11. Inside the cable tray body 11, a threaded mechanism for equidistantly adjusting the separating baffles 12 is provided. The threaded mechanism includes an adjusting screw 13 and a set of cross links 14. The adjusting screw 13 is rotatably connected inside the cable tray body 11, and the three separating baffles 12 are threadedly connected to the outside of the adjusting screw 13. On the surface, a set of cross links 14 are set inside three partition baffles 12. A sliding cable tray cover 15 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the cable tray body 11. During cable installation, the cable is placed inside the cable tray body 11, and the cable is protected by the cable tray body 11. The sliding cable tray cover 15 forms a complete closed structure on the surface of the cable tray body 11. After the cable laying and installation are completed, the cable strip can be passed between the two through slots 16 and fitted onto the cable surface to fix it and ensure its stability. During the cable laying and installation, the cable tray body 11 is protected by the three partition baffles 12. The body 11 is divided into four installation spaces. When facing the installation requirements of different cable types and sizes, the adjusting screw 13 is turned to drive a partition baffle 12 to slide. The lower ends of the three partition baffles 12 are rotatably connected to cross links 14. The cross links 14 are composed of multiple links, which are rotatably connected to each other. Every two links form a group and rotate within a partition baffle 12 and are installed in a cross manner. Every two links are rotatably connected to the other two links. When the partition baffles 12 slide, they will compress the cross links 14 to produce deformation. The displacement of the cross links 14 will drive the three partition baffles 12 to slide synchronously, so as to achieve equidistant adjustment.

[0033] The cable tray body 11 has a set of through slots 16 inside. A U-shaped frame 17 is provided on the outer surface of the cable tray body 11. Three externally threaded rods 18 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the U-shaped frame 17. Each of the three externally threaded rods 18 has a locking nut 19 threadedly connected to its outer surface. All three locking nuts 19 are located on the outer surface of the cable tray body 11. A circular handle 21 is fixedly connected inside the locking nut 19. A set of rotating wheels 22 is rotatably connected inside the U-shaped frame 17. When installing cables, the cables are placed inside the U-shaped frame 17, and the cables will contact the surfaces of the rotating wheels 22. During cable installation, workers can pull the power supply to move it. The rotating wheel 22 assists in moving the cable to prevent direct contact between the cable and the surface of the cable tray body 11, which could cause scratches. When installing the U-shaped frame 17, the tightening nut 19 is screwed on. The tightening nut 19 is threaded onto the surface of the external thread rod 18. The tightening nut 19 contacts the surface of the cable tray body 11 to complete the overall installation of the U-shaped frame 17. The circular handle 21 connected inside the tightening nut 19 provides a grip for workers to tighten it.

[0034] A round rod shaft 23 is rotatably connected inside the U-shaped frame 17. A first sliding baffle 24 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the round rod shaft 23. A ball bearing 25 is sleeved on the outer surface of the first sliding baffle 24. A second sliding baffle 26 is sleeved on the outer surface of the ball bearing 25. The second sliding baffle 26 is engaged inside the U-shaped frame 17. A tension spring 27 is sleeved on the outer surface of the U-shaped frame 17. The tension spring 27 is sleeved on the outer surface of the second sliding baffle 26. After the cable installation is completed, when the U-shaped frame 17 needs to be removed as a whole, the tension spring 27 sleeved on the surface of the U-shaped frame 17 is pulled off. At this time, rotating the second sliding baffle 26 will create a notch for the U-shaped frame 17 to be removed. By pulling the second sliding baffle 26 with the tension spring 27, the U-shaped frame 17 is always engaged inside the U-shaped frame 17, thus ensuring the closed loop of the entire U-shaped frame 17 during the cable pulling operation.

[0035] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a cable tray with cable separation function. When the size of the separation space needs to be adjusted to meet different cable installation requirements, the adjusting screw 13 is turned to drive a separation baffle 12 threadedly connected to it to slide. Since the lower ends of the three separation baffles 12 are rotatably connected to cross links 14, and the cross links 14 are composed of multiple rotatably connected links, with each pair of links rotating within a separation baffle 12 and installed in a cross manner, and each pair of links rotatably connected to the other two links, when one of the separation baffles 12 slides, it will squeeze the cross links 14 to cause deformation. The displacement of the cross links 14 drives the other two separation baffles 12 to slide synchronously, ultimately achieving equidistant adjustment of the three separation baffles 12, flexibly adapting to different cable laying requirements.

[0036] Working principle:

[0037] The first step involves placing the cable inside the cable tray body 11 during installation. The cable tray body 11 provides shielding and protection for the cable. A sliding cable tray cover 15, slidably mounted on the surface of the cable tray body 11, can be slid to a suitable position after cable laying, forming a complete enclosed structure to further protect the cable from external factors. Simultaneously, after cable laying and installation, a cable strip is passed through a set of through slots 16 inside the cable tray body 11 and fitted onto the cable surface to secure the cable and ensure stable placement. During installation, the cable is placed inside the U-shaped frame 17, with the cable contacting the surface of the rotating wheel 22 inside the U-shaped frame 17. The rotating wheel 22 assists in moving the cable as workers pull it, preventing direct contact between the cable and the surface of the cable tray body 11, thus preventing scratches. The U-shaped frame 17 is installed by tightening the locking nut 19, which is threaded onto an externally threaded rod. On the surface of U-shaped frame 17, the external threaded rod 18 is fixed to the outer surface of the U-shaped frame 17. When the tightening nut 19 is turned, the tightening nut 19 gradually contacts the surface of the cable tray body 11, and the friction force fixes the U-shaped frame 17 to the cable tray body 11 as a whole. The circular handle 21 connected inside the tightening nut 19 provides a convenient grip for the operator to tighten. After the cable installation is completed, if it is necessary to remove the U-shaped frame 17 as a whole, first pull the tension spring 27 sleeved on the surface of the U-shaped frame 17, and then rotate the second sliding baffle 2. 6. Since the second sliding baffle 26 is sleeved on the outer surface of the first sliding baffle 24 through the ball bearing 25, and the first sliding baffle 24 is fixed on the round rod shaft 23, which is rotatably connected inside the U-shaped frame 17, rotating the second sliding baffle 26 can form a notch for the U-shaped frame 17 to be removed. During the cable pulling operation, the tension spring 27 pulls the second sliding baffle 26 to always be locked inside the U-shaped frame 17, ensuring that the U-shaped frame 17 is in a closed loop state, providing stable support and protection for the cable.

[0038] The second step involves the cable tray body 11 being divided into four installation spaces by three partition plates 12 during cable laying and installation. This separates multiple cables, preventing them from interfering with each other during installation or use, thus achieving the cable separation function. When the size of the partition space needs to be adjusted to meet different cable installation requirements, the adjusting screw 13 is turned to slide one of the partition plates 12 connected to it. Since the lower ends of the three partition plates 12 are rotatably connected to cross links 14, which consist of multiple rotatably connected links, with each pair of links rotating within a partition plate 12 and installed in a cross manner, and each pair of links rotatably connected to the other two links, when one partition plate 12 slides, it will compress the cross link 14, causing it to deform. The displacement of the cross link 14 will drive the other two partition plates 12 to slide synchronously, ultimately achieving equidistant adjustment of the three partition plates 12, flexibly adapting to different cable laying requirements.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
