[0030] [First Embodiment]
[0031] like Figure 1-3 The image shown is an ODF subframe for use in integrated cabinets and network cabinets, provided in the first embodiment of this utility model. Figure 1As shown, the system includes a frame 100. In this embodiment, the frame 100 includes a base plate 101. Side plates 102 are fixedly connected to both sides of the base plate 101. The side plates 102 extend forward and an expansion plate 103 is fixed at the front end of the side plates 102. A wire hole 1031 is provided inside the expansion plate 103 to facilitate the wire threading. Since the outer diameter of the wire is usually much smaller than the inner diameter of the wire hole 1031, the wire hole 1031 can also achieve weight reduction and heat dissipation. An extension plate 104 is fixed at the outer end of the expansion plate 103. The extension plate 104 extends forward and a mounting plate 105 is fixed at the front end of the extension plate 104. A mounting hole 1051 is provided inside the mounting plate 105. The frame 100 can be fixedly installed in the required position by passing a fastener through the mounting hole 1051. Preferably, in this embodiment, the substrate 101 and the side plate 102, the side plate 102 and the outer expansion plate 103, the outer expansion plate 103 and the extension plate 104, and the extension plate 104 and the mounting plate 105 are all connected at right angles to meet the usage requirements while ensuring an aesthetically pleasing appearance. Those skilled in the art will understand that, in order to meet actual usage requirements, other included angles can also be set between the two adjacent plates.
[0032] The improvement of this embodiment compared with the prior art is that the front side of the frame 100 is set as an open and non-closed structure. By setting the front side of the frame as an open and non-closed structure, the panel and the upper and lower frames are eliminated, which reduces costs and effectively achieves weight reduction. At the same time, since the panel and the upper and lower frames are eliminated, there is no need to consider the installation and fixing of the panel, which fundamentally solves the drawback of the panel not being securely installed. In addition, since the panel and the upper and lower frames are eliminated, the view will not be obstructed, and the internal wiring installation is simple, convenient and efficient.
[0033] Guide rails 200 are fixed to the inner walls of both sides of the frame 100, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the guide rail 200 includes six parallel tracks 201. Each track 201 is of equal length and has flush ends. One end of the track 201 abuts against the front side of the substrate 101, and the other end is located on the front side of the expansion plate 103. Those skilled in the art can also configure the guide rail 200 with other numbers of parallel tracks 201 according to actual wiring requirements. To facilitate cable threading and wiring, a wiring groove 202 is provided inside each track 201, and a wiring hole 203 is provided between adjacent tracks 201.
[0034] like Figure 2-3 As shown, a fiber optic cable fixing plate assembly 300 is fixed to the rear side of the frame 100. Specifically, a through hole 1011 is opened inside the substrate 101, and the fiber optic cable fixing plate assembly 300 is fixedly installed inside the through hole 1011 at the required position, thereby meeting the wiring requirements of different positions and further improving the applicability.
[0035] The optical cable fixing plate assembly 300 in this embodiment includes a plate body 301. A fixing part 302 is provided on the outer edge of the plate body 301. The fixing part 302 fixes the plate body 301 to the required position in the through hole 1011 inside the substrate 101. A cable routing hole 303 and a winding part are provided inside the plate body 301. The winding part includes a winding groove 304 and a winding post 305. The winding groove 304 is opened inside the plate body 301, and the winding post 305 is fixed to the rear side of the plate body 301 to meet the wiring and winding requirements of cables at different positions.
[0036] This embodiment provides an ODF sub-frame for integrated cabinets and network cabinets. By setting the front of the frame to an open, non-closed structure, the panel and upper and lower frames are eliminated, reducing costs and effectively achieving weight reduction. Since the panel and upper and lower frames are eliminated, there is no need to consider the installation and fixing of the panel, fundamentally solving the drawback of unstable panel installation. Since the panel and upper and lower frames are eliminated, the view is not obstructed, and the internal wiring installation is simple, convenient, and efficient.
[0037] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
