[0024] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0025] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 7 As shown:

[0026] This utility model provides a visual cable trough for a training base platform, including a base 1, a transparent cover plate 2, connecting components and operating components. The base 1 is provided with a cable channel 3. The top of both sides of the inner wall of the cable channel 3 is provided with reserved slots 4. The transparent cover plate 2 is accommodated between the two sets of reserved slots 4. The cable channel 3 is provided with rectangular through slots 5 located on both sides of the transparent cover plate 2. The rectangular through slots 5 are provided with connecting components for limiting the transparent cover plate 2. The top of the cable channel 3 is provided with operating components for releasing the limiting state of the transparent cover plate 2.

[0027] When in use, the cable trough 3 is covered by the transparent cover plate 2. This gives the cable trough 3 good waterproof and fireproof functions, reduces cable loss caused by the external environment, and ensures that the trough is clean and free of water and soil accumulation. It also allows trainees to clearly see the construction standard process such as signal cable binding and cable branching. The transparent cover plate 2 can also be lifted to facilitate binding practice training, making outdoor teaching more intuitive.

[0028] refer to Figure 3The connecting components include a movable plate 6, a horizontal pin 7, and a spring 8. Crossbeams 9 are symmetrically arranged at both ends of the rectangular through groove 5. The movable plate 6 is slidably connected between the two sets of crossbeams 9. A horizontal pin 7 extending into the reserved groove 4 is arranged linearly and equidistantly on one side of the movable plate 6. Multiple sets of springs 8 are arranged on the side of the movable plate 6 away from the horizontal pin 7. One end of the multiple sets of springs 8 is connected to the groove wall of the rectangular through groove 5.

[0029] refer to Figure 2 The transparent cover plate 2 has multiple insertion holes 10 linearly and equidistantly arranged on both sides, and the multiple insertion holes 10 are respectively set with multiple horizontal pins 7.

[0030] In use, the elastic force of the spring 8 drives the movable plate 6 to move under the limit of the crossbeam 9, so that the movable plate 6 drives the cross pin 7 to insert into the inner side of the insertion hole 10 on both sides of the transparent cover plate 2, thereby connecting and limiting the transparent cover plate 2.

[0031] refer to Figure 6 The operating room includes a rotating shaft 11, a cam 12 and a limiting mechanism. The rotating shaft 11 is symmetrically rotated through both sides of the top end of the cable channel 3. The cam 12 located in the rectangular through groove 5 is connected to the rotating shaft 11. The outer circumference of the cam 12 abuts against the moving plate 6. A limiting mechanism is provided at the top end of the rotating shaft 11.

[0032] In this process, the rotating shaft 11 is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the cam 12 to rotate. During the rotation of the cam 12, the moving plate 6 is pushed, causing the moving plate 6 to compress the spring 8 and drive the horizontal pin 7 to disengage from the insertion hole 10, thereby releasing the restriction on the transparent cover plate 2.

[0033] refer to Figure 7 The limiting mechanism includes a tension spring 13, a sliding plate 14, a limiting rod 15, a connecting plate 16, and a limiting ring 17. A cavity is provided on the inner side of the rotating shaft 11. The sliding plate 14 is connected to the cavity through the tension spring 13. The limiting rod 15 is connected to the sliding plate 14. One end of the limiting rod 15 passes through the rotating shaft 11 and is connected to the connecting plate 16 located above the cable duct 3. A handle 18 is provided on the connecting plate 16. A limiting ring 17 installed on the cable duct 3 is provided on the outer side of the connecting plate 16.

[0034] The limiting rod 15 has a rectangular cross-sectional shape. When the limiting rod 15 is rotated by the connecting plate 16, the rotating shaft 11 can be rotated synchronously, so that the rotating shaft 11 drives the cam 12 to rotate and apply a pushing effect to the moving plate 6.

[0035] refer to Figure 7 The inner wall of the limiting ring 17 is provided with four sets of arc-shaped grooves 19 at equal intervals around the circumference. The outer circumference of the connecting plate 16 is symmetrically provided with two sets of arc-shaped columns 20. The two sets of arc-shaped columns 20 are respectively inserted and connected to the corresponding two sets of arc-shaped grooves 19.

[0036] The connecting plate 16 is limited by the cooperation between the arc groove 19 and the arc column 20.

[0037] Working principle: During use, the elastic force of spring 8 drives the moving plate 6 to move under the limit of crossbeam 9, so that the moving plate 6 drives the cross pin 7 to insert into the inner side of the insertion hole 10 on both sides of the transparent cover plate 2, thereby connecting and limiting the transparent cover plate 2, so that the transparent cover plate 2 covers the cable trough 3. When it is necessary to open the transparent cover plate 2 for training operation, first pull the connecting plate 16 up by the handle 18. On the one hand, the connecting plate 16 drives the arc-shaped column 20 to slide upward along the arc-shaped groove 19 until it disengages from the limiting ring 17. The disengagement releases the limiting ring 17 from limiting the rotation of the connecting plate 16. On the other hand, the connecting plate 16 drives the limiting rod 15 to move, so that the limiting rod 15 passes through the sliding plate 14. When the tension spring 13 is stretched, the handle 18 can be rotated. The handle 18, through the connection plate 16 and the limiting rod 15, drives the rotating shaft 11 to rotate. The rotating shaft 11 drives the cam 12 to rotate. During the rotation of the cam 12, it can push the moving plate 6, causing the moving plate 6 to squeeze the spring 8 and drive the horizontal pin 7 to disengage from the insertion hole 10. At this time, the tension on the handle 18 can be released, and the handle 18, under the elastic tension of the tension spring 13, drives the connection plate 16 to move into the limiting ring 17, so that the limiting ring 17 limits the connection plate 16 again. At this time, the horizontal pin 7 remains disengaged from the transparent cover plate 2, and the transparent cover plate 2 can be removed from the cable channel 3. The overall operation is convenient and highly practical.
