Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of trough-type cable tray technology, specifically a trough-type cable tray. Background Technology
[0002] Cable trays are devices used to support and manage cable layouts, particularly suitable for environments requiring protection of cables from physical damage and electromagnetic interference. Made of metallic or non-metallic materials, they are designed with a trough-shaped structure on the sides and bottom, effectively arranging and securing cables neatly in predetermined positions. This type of tray not only improves the aesthetics of the cable system but also facilitates installation and maintenance, while ensuring the safety and reliability of cable operation. Cable trays are widely used in various indoor and outdoor engineering projects, such as industrial plants, commercial buildings, and public facilities.
[0003] Existing trough-type cable trays typically lack folding functionality, resulting in a large volume and high logistics costs during transportation. Additionally, the U-shaped frame structure has low structural strength, making it susceptible to deformation due to bumps and pressure during transport. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the inability to fold during transportation, large volume, high logistics costs, low structural strength of U-shaped frame structures, and easy deformation of the frame due to bumps and compression during transportation. The proposed trough-type cable tray allows the side plates (102) to be detached from the top of the base plate (101) for independent transportation. The disassembled components are smaller in size, significantly reducing the space occupied during transportation, making it especially suitable for long-distance bulk transportation and effectively saving logistics costs. Separate transportation can prevent the side plates (102) from colliding and deforming with the base plate (101) during bumps. The binding and fixing makes it easier to protect the integrity of the component coating. In addition, users can flexibly adjust the number of different components according to the needs of the site to achieve efficient warehousing and on-demand assembly.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] Design a trough-type cable tray, including a main body structure. A quick-installation mechanism is fixedly installed inside the main body structure, and a cable management mechanism is movably installed inside the main body structure via the quick-installation mechanism. The main body structure includes a base plate, fixing bolts, L-shaped retaining strips, and two sets of side plates. The base plate and side plates each have internal grooves. The L-shaped retaining strips are slidably installed inside the grooves. The two sets of side plates are movably installed on the top of the base plate via the L-shaped retaining strips. The fixing bolts are threaded through the outer walls of the side plates and the base plate, connecting to the inside of the base plate. When the grooves at the top of the base plate and the bottom of the side plates are connected, their cross-sections are the same as those of the L-shaped retaining strips. The main body of the L-shaped retaining strip is L-shaped, and both ends of the L-shaped retaining strip are provided with circular retaining strips.
[0007] Furthermore, the top of the base plate is provided with two sets of first positioning grooves, and the side plate is movably installed inside the first positioning grooves.
[0008] Furthermore, a dust cover is movably installed on the top of the main body.
[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the base plate has several heat dissipation holes.
[0010] Furthermore, the cable management mechanism includes a mounting plate, on the top of which several partitions are fixedly mounted, and the quick-installation mechanism is available in various specifications, the difference being the spacing between the partitions.
[0011] Furthermore, the quick-installation mechanism includes a positioning pin and a mounting sleeve. The positioning pin is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate, and the mounting sleeve is fixedly installed on the bottom of the mounting plate. The mounting sleeve is slidably installed on the top of the positioning pin, and a magnetic block is fixedly installed on the top of the positioning pin.
[0012] Furthermore, the quick-installation mechanism also includes a plurality of positioning strips and a second positioning groove. The plurality of second positioning grooves are formed on the left and right sides of the mounting plate, and the plurality of positioning strips are fixedly installed on one side of the side plate. The cross-sections of the second positioning grooves and the positioning strips are the same.
[0013] The trough-type cable tray proposed in this utility model has the following advantages: during transportation, the side plates can be disassembled from the top of the base plate for independent transport. The disassembled components are smaller in size, significantly reducing the space occupied during transportation, which is especially suitable for long-distance bulk transportation, effectively saving logistics costs. Separate transportation can prevent the side plates from colliding and deforming with the base plate during bumps, and the binding and fixing makes it easier to protect the integrity of the component coating. In addition, users can flexibly adjust the number of different components according to the site requirements to achieve efficient warehousing and on-demand assembly. Attached Figure Description

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0022] The structural features of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] See Figures 1-4A trough-type cable tray includes a main body 1. A quick-installation mechanism 2 is fixedly installed inside the main body 1. A cable management mechanism 3 is movably installed inside the main body 1 via the quick-installation mechanism 2. The main body 1 includes a base plate 101, fixing bolts 106, L-shaped retaining strips 103, and two sets of side plates 102. Both the base plate 101 and the side plates 102 have internal grooves 104. The L-shaped retaining strips 103 are slidably installed inside the grooves 104. The two sets of side plates 102 are movably installed on the top of the base plate 101 via the L-shaped retaining strips 103. The fixing bolts 106 threadedly connect the side plates 102 and the outer wall of the base plate 101 to the inside of the base plate 101. When the top of the base plate 101 and the bottom of the side plate 102 are connected to the grooves 104, their cross-section is the same as that of the L-shaped retaining strips 103. The main body of the L-shaped retaining strips 103 is L-shaped, and both ends of the L-shaped retaining strips are provided with circular retaining strips. The L-shaped main body restricts the side plates 102. 02 The side plate 102 rotates and moves laterally on the top of the base plate 101. The cooperation between the circular locking strip and the sliding groove 104 prevents the side plate 102 from moving up and down on the top of the base plate 101. The top of the base plate 101 is provided with two sets of first positioning grooves 105. The side plate 102 is movably installed inside the first positioning grooves 105. The first positioning grooves 105 facilitate the user to accurately insert the side plate 102 into the top of the base plate 101. The top of the main body 1 is movably installed with a dust cover 4. The dust cover 4 protects the top of the main body 1 and prevents dust and liquid droplets from entering the interior of the main body 1, thus protecting the cable. The bottom of the base plate 101 is provided with several heat dissipation holes 107. The heat dissipation holes 107 ensure ventilation inside the main body 1 to dissipate heat from the cable and prevent the cable from accumulating heat inside the main body 1. At the same time, opening holes only at the bottom of the main body 1 greatly reduces the possibility of dust and water entering the interior of the main body 1.
[0024] The cable management mechanism 3 includes a mounting plate 301. Several partitions 302 are fixedly mounted on the top of the mounting plate 301. The quick-release mechanism 2 is available in various specifications, differing only in the spacing between the partitions 302. The partitions 302 separate the cables on the top of the mounting plate 301, facilitating cable management. The quick-release mechanism 2 includes a positioning pin 201 and a mounting sleeve 202. The positioning pin 201 is fixedly mounted on the top of the base plate 101, and the mounting sleeve 202 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the mounting plate 301. The mounting sleeve 202 slides on the top of the positioning pin 201. A magnetic block 203 is fixedly mounted on the top of the positioning pin 201. The mounting sleeve 202 and the positioning pin 201 are connected by a magnetic block 203. The quick-install mechanism 2 is designed to facilitate users in fixing the cable management mechanism 3 inside the main body 1. At the same time, the mounting sleeve 202 is magnetically attached to the top of the positioning pin 201 by the magnetic block 203. This allows users to easily replace the quick-install mechanism 2 with different specifications according to the cable diameter. The quick-install mechanism 2 also includes several positioning strips 205 and second positioning grooves 204. Several second positioning grooves 204 are opened on the left and right sides of the mounting plate 301, and several positioning strips 205 are fixedly installed on one side of the side plate 102. The cross-sections of the second positioning grooves 204 and the positioning strips 205 are consistent. The cooperation between the second positioning grooves 204 and the positioning strips 205 allows users to accurately fix the cable management mechanism 3 inside the main body 1.
[0025] The trough-type cable tray of this utility model allows for the removal of the side plates 102 from the top of the base plate 101 during transportation, enabling independent transport. The disassembled components are smaller in size, significantly reducing the space occupied during transportation, making it particularly suitable for long-distance bulk transportation and effectively saving logistics costs. Separate transportation can prevent the side plates 102 from colliding and deforming with the base plate 101 during bumpy rides, and the use of bundling and fixing makes it easier to protect the integrity of the component coating. In addition, users can flexibly adjust the number of different components according to on-site needs, achieving efficient warehousing and on-demand assembly.
[0026] Specifically, after transportation, the side plate 102 is inserted into the first positioning groove 105, and then the L-shaped clip 103 is inserted into the bottom plate 101 and the side plate 102 to initially fix the side plate 102 to the top of the bottom plate 101. Then, the L-shaped clip 103 and the side plate 102 are completely fixed to the bottom plate 101 by fixing bolts 106. By reversing the above process, the trough-type cable tray can be disassembled into several independent components for transportation or storage.
[0027] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
