Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cable equipment technology, and in particular to a cable with a branching function. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of electronic devices and communication technologies, the demand for cables is constantly increasing. In many application scenarios, such as data centers, communication equipment, and consumer electronics, a single signal source or power supply can be distributed to multiple devices or ports. Such cables consist of a main cable and multiple sub-cables. However, in practical applications, sub-cables are often not used simultaneously, leaving unused sub-cables exposed and lacking protection, making them susceptible to damage. Therefore, a cable with a splitting function is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the problem that in practical applications, branch cables may not be used simultaneously, leaving unused branch cables exposed and vulnerable to damage due to lack of protection, this application provides a cable with branching functionality.

[0004] The cable with splitter function provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A cable with a splitter function includes a connector. A main cable and a splitter cable are respectively arranged on both sides of the connector. Multiple sets of splitter cables are arranged, and each set of splitter cables is connected to the main cable wire. A plug is fixedly connected to the free end of each splitter cable. Multiple sets of grooves are formed on the surface of the connector for accommodating the plugs. Each groove corresponds to a plug. An inner groove is formed on one side of the inner surface of each groove. A baffle is connected to the inner groove through a moving mechanism. The moving mechanism is used to drive the baffle to move, so that the groove is closed or opened. An opening is formed on the side of the groove near the splitter cable.

[0006] Preferably, the moving mechanism includes a sliding groove formed on the upper surface of the connecting seat, the sliding groove communicating with the inner groove, a slider being slidably installed inside the sliding groove, one end of the baffle being located inside the inner groove, and the slider being fixedly connected to the baffle.

[0007] Preferably, each inner groove is fixedly connected with a spring, and one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the baffle.

[0008] Preferably, when the spring is not subjected to external force, the spring abuts against the baffle, so that the baffle is located inside the groove.

[0009] Preferably, multiple sets of fixing blocks are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the connecting seat, and a connecting shaft is fixedly connected to the surface of each fixing block, with each connecting shaft corresponding to a groove.

[0010] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0011] This utility model, by setting a moving mechanism in cooperation with a baffle, can control the opening and closing state of the groove. The moving mechanism drives the baffle to move into the inner groove, and then the unused plug is placed inside the groove, and the branch cable at the plug is placed inside the opening. Then, the moving mechanism drives the baffle to move into the groove again to seal the groove, thus storing the plug and preventing it from being exposed and damaged. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-3 This application will be described in further detail.

[0017] This application discloses a cable with a splitter function, including a connector 1. A main cable 2 and a splitter cable 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the connector 1, and multiple sets of splitter cables 3 are arranged. Each set of splitter cables 3 is connected to the wire of the main cable 2. A plug 4 is fixedly connected to the free end of each splitter cable 3. Multiple sets of grooves 10 are opened on the surface of the connector 1. The grooves 10 are used to store the plugs 4. The grooves 10 and the plugs 4 correspond one-to-one. An inner groove 13 is opened on one side of the inner surface of each groove 10. A baffle 7 is connected to the inner groove 13 through a moving mechanism. The moving mechanism is used to drive the baffle 7 to move, so that the groove 10 is closed or opened. An opening 8 is opened on the side of the groove 10 near the splitter cable 3.

[0018] In this embodiment, by setting a moving mechanism in cooperation with the baffle 7, the opening and closing state of the groove 10 can be controlled. The moving mechanism drives the baffle 7 to move into the inner groove 13, and then the unused plug 4 is placed inside the groove 10, and the branch cable 3 at the plug 4 is placed inside the opening 8. Then, the moving mechanism drives the baffle 7 to move into the groove 10 to seal the groove 10, so that the plug 4 can be stored and prevented from being exposed and damaged.

[0019] Furthermore, the moving mechanism includes a slide groove 9 formed on the upper surface of the connecting seat 1. The slide groove 9 communicates with the inner groove 13. A slider 12 is slidably installed inside the slide groove 9. One end of the baffle 7 is located inside the inner groove 13, and the slider 12 is fixedly connected to the baffle 7.

[0020] Furthermore, springs 11 are fixedly connected inside the inner groove 13, and one end of the spring 11 is fixedly connected to the baffle 7.

[0021] Furthermore, when the spring 11 is not subjected to external force, the spring 11 presses against the baffle 7, so that the baffle 7 is located inside the groove 10.

[0022] In this embodiment, the user can move the baffle 7 by pushing the slider 12. When the baffle 7 is moved into the inner groove 13 by pushing the slider 12, the spring 11 is compressed and the groove 10 is in the open state. When the user releases the slider 12, the compressed spring 11 is reset, and the slider 12 and the baffle 7 can be pushed back, and the baffle 7 can seal the groove 10.

[0023] Furthermore, multiple sets of fixing blocks 5 are fixedly connected to the upper surface of the connecting seat 1, and a connecting shaft 6 is fixedly connected to the surface of each fixing block 5. The connecting shaft 6 corresponds one-to-one with the groove 10.

[0024] In this embodiment, by setting the connecting shaft 6, unused branch cables 3 can be wound around the outer surface of the connecting shaft 6, thereby preventing the branch cables 3 from becoming tangled.

[0025] Finally, the following points should be noted: First, in the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection", and "linkage" should be interpreted broadly, and can be mechanical or electrical connections, or internal connections between two components, or direct connections.
