They ensure the normal operation of various electrical equipment, guarantee the coordinated operation of various ship systems, and meet the communication needs of the ship's internal and external systems. They have multiple functions and serve as an important link connecting various electrical equipment on the ship. Currently, when installing marine cables, cable trays are used to support the cables to ensure smooth laying of the cables.
[0003] However, existing ship cable trays have a relatively simple structure and are difficult or even impossible to adjust after being fixed in place. They also cannot change the laying trajectory of the ship cables they support, resulting in low flexibility in use.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to invent an easily adjustable ship cable tray to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0030] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0031] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-5 The present invention relates to an easily adjustable ship cable tray, comprising a support plate 1, wherein two rows of insertion holes 2 are provided on the side of the support plate 1 from top to bottom;
[0032] A plurality of insert plates 3 are provided, and the insert plates 3 are inserted into the support plate 1 through the insertion holes 2;
[0033] Sleeve 4, installed at the end of the insert plate 3, is used to support the inserted marine cable;
[0034] The positioning strip 5 is snapped onto the top of the support plate 1 and extends downward through the end of the insert plate 3 to position the insert plate 3.
[0035] A driving component is disposed on one side of the support plate 1 and is used to drive the support plate 1 to translate. The driving component includes a decorative plate 91. A groove 92 is provided on the side of the decorative plate 91 near the support plate 1. A screw 93 is installed inside the groove 92. A slider 94 is sleeved on the outside of the screw 93. The outside of the slider 94 is connected to the side wall of the support plate 1.
[0036] In one embodiment, at least three of the sockets 2 in each row are fitted with insert plates 3, and the spacing between any two adjacent sockets 2 fitted with insert plates 3 is equal. The sockets 2 fitted with insert plates 3 in two rows are aligned vertically, so that when the ship cable is laid in a wave shape, the tilt angles on both sides of the trough peak or trough bottom are consistent, thereby ensuring that the ship cable has high stability after laying and will not easily sway.
[0037] In one embodiment, four rotating rods 6 are inserted inside each sleeve 4. The four rotating rods 6 are arranged in pairs, located at the top and bottom of the sleeve 4 respectively. The rotating rods 6 are connected to the inner wall of the sleeve 4 through bearings. The rotating rods 6 can rotate around their own axis, so that when the ship cable passes through the top or bottom of the rotating rod 6, the rotating rod 6 will rotate under the action of friction, thereby changing the sliding friction between the rotating rod 6 and the ship cable into rolling friction, reducing the wear of the ship cable sheath, allowing it to be used for a long time, and also saving the workers the pulling force when pulling, which facilitates the installation and laying of ship cables.
[0038] In one embodiment, the top of the positioning strip 5 is set in an inverted U-shape, and the top of the support plate 1 is provided with several slots 7. The slots 7 are adapted to the top of the positioning strip 5 for engaging the positioning strip 5. The top of the insert plate 3 is provided with a positioning hole 8 for the bottom end of the positioning strip 5 to be inserted. When the positioning strip 5 is engaged in the slot 7, the inverted U-shape at its end is overturned on the top of the support plate 1. At this time, the bottom of the positioning strip 5 passes through the insert plate 3 below it. That is, the positioning strip 5 is limited by the slot 7 and the positioning hole 8. At the same time, under the influence of gravity, the positioning strip 5 will not separate from the support plate 1, thereby ensuring the stability of the sleeve 4 after installation. This ensures the stability of the ship cable after laying. When the staff needs to adjust the position of the sleeve 4, they only need to pull the positioning strip 5 upward to pull the insert plate 3 outward, thereby separating the sleeve 4 from the support plate 1. Then, they can select the appropriate position of the insert hole 2, insert the insert plate 3 again, and re-engage the positioning strip 5 to complete the replacement of the sleeve 4. The whole operation process is simple and convenient.
[0039] In one embodiment, a motor 10 is mounted on the top of the decorative panel 91, the bottom end of the screw 93 extends into the bottom wall of the decorative panel 91, the top end of the screw 93 penetrates the top wall of the decorative panel 91 and is connected to the output end of the motor 10, and a clearance groove 11 is provided on the side end of the slider 94 near the support plate 1, so that the positioning strip 5 located in the middle of the support plate 1 can pass downward through the insert plate 3 at its bottom, thereby completing the installation of the sleeve 4 in the middle of the support plate 1. An installation plate 12 is also installed on the side of the decorative panel 91 away from the support plate 1, and a number of installation holes 13 are provided on one side of the installation plate 12 to facilitate the installation and use of the ship cable tray by the staff.
[0040] The specific implementation method is as follows: When using this utility model, the worker uses external fasteners to fix the mounting plate 12 to the location on the ship where it is needed, by passing it through the mounting holes 13. Then, the ship cable to be laid is inserted through one side of the sleeve 4 and exited through the other side until it leaves the entire support plate 1, thus completing the ship cable laying process. Specifically:
[0041] When workers are threading cables into a ship, they can do so as follows: Figure 4 As shown, the ship's cables can be threaded in and out horizontally, or as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the ship cable is inserted through the sleeve 4 on the bottom left side, pulled upwards after exiting, and then inserted through the sleeve 4 at the top middle position. It is then pulled downwards again, finally exiting through the sleeve 4 on the bottom right side. By increasing the number of sleeves 4, multiple peaks and valleys will appear when the ship cable is laid. At this time, the ship cable is no longer stretched in a straight line on the support plate 1, but is laid and extended in a wave-like manner, which has strong tensile strength and can always be kept in a tight state without easily loosening, thus facilitating ship use.
[0042] Meanwhile, when the staff needs to adjust the ship's cable tray, they can insert the insert plate 3 into different sockets 2 to increase or decrease the number of insert plates 3, thereby increasing or decreasing the spacing of the sleeves 4. This adjusts the tilt angle of the ship's cable when it is inserted in a wavy pattern, that is, the laying trajectory of the ship's cable is changed. Or, when the ship's cable is inserted in a straight line, support points are added, so that the laying of the ship's cable is not just a fixed technical solution, but has a variety of different options.
[0043] Furthermore, according to usage requirements, the staff can control the output end of the motor 10 to rotate in the forward direction. At this time, the screw 93 rotates in the forward direction, causing the slider 94 to move upward along the screw 93, thereby driving the entire support plate 1 to move upward, thus increasing the overall laying height of the ship's cable. Conversely, by controlling the output end of the motor 10 to rotate in the reverse direction, the slider 94 can move downward along the screw 93, thereby driving the entire support plate 1 to move downward, thus decreasing the overall laying height of the ship's cable. This allows the system to adapt to different locations inside the ship and provides high flexibility.
[0044] This embodiment specifically addresses the problem that existing ship cable trays in the prior art have a relatively simple structure, are difficult or even impossible to adjust after fixed installation, and cannot change the laying trajectory of the ship cables they support, resulting in low flexibility of use.
[0045] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
