Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of modular buildings, and in particular to an electrical conduit system for modular buildings. Background Technology
[0002] Prefabricated modular construction is one of the construction methods that the country is vigorously developing. It involves breaking down building, structure, and electromechanical systems into small, independent modules that are also tightly integrated as a whole. These modules can be mass-produced in factories, achieving high integration and precision. Once produced, the modules are transported to the site and hoisted to complete the building construction. Prefabricated modular construction is a typical example of industrialized construction. Compared to traditional construction methods, it can significantly shorten construction time, reduce carbon emissions, decrease on-site construction noise and dust, and lower the on-site construction risk factor. In terms of electrical engineering, according to Article 8.3.3 of the "Standard for Electrical Design of Civil Buildings GB 51348-2019," the total cross-sectional area (including the outer sheath) of insulated wires (excluding two wires) running through metal conduits should not exceed 40% of the cross-sectional area inside the conduit; and according to Article 6.1.2 of the "General Specification for Building Electrical and Intelligent Systems GB 55024-2022," the total cross-sectional area of power distribution wires in conduits and cable trays should not exceed 40% of the cross-sectional area inside the conduit or cable tray. Furthermore, according to Article 6.4.5 of the "Code for Electrical Design of Residential Buildings JGJ 242-2011," for households with a building area of 60m² or less and consisting of one-bedroom units, the incoming power line should not be less than 6mm², the lighting circuit branch lines should not be less than 1.5mm², and the socket circuit branch lines should not be less than 2.5mm². For households with a building area greater than 60m², the incoming power line should not be less than 10mm², and the lighting and socket circuit branch lines should not be less than 2.5mm². This concludes that the diameter of the high-voltage power line conduit (especially for residential buildings) should typically be at least 32mm (i.e., the cross-sectional area of a traditional 32mm diameter, 2mm-3mm wall thickness round pipe) to meet the requirements for installing the required high-voltage power line. However, modular structural systems limit the conduit diameter to 25mm and above, making it unsuitable for installation in composite slab cast-in-place layers, especially in thin-shell walls. Therefore, existing circular cross-section pipes cannot meet the requirements of pre-embedding in modular buildings while satisfying the pipe cross-section throughput. Furthermore, the bending radius of pipes with larger diameters is relatively large, making it difficult to operate when tying structural beam reinforcement cages on the construction site.

[0092] To better explain and facilitate understanding of this utility model, a detailed description of its specific embodiments is provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In this document, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" are used interchangeably. Figure 1 The orientation is used as a reference.
[0093] This utility model proposes an electrical conduit system for modular buildings, which changes the traditional round pipe cross-section to a flattened round cross-section, making the width of the flattened round cross-section less than or equal to 20mm, and correspondingly increasing the length. This solves the problem that traditional round pipes with a diameter greater than or equal to 25mm are unsuitable for installation in modular buildings due to the special nature of prefabricated building construction processes, especially on thin-shell walls. The flat, straight pipe shown in this utility model can meet the requirements for inserting high-voltage power lines (i.e., the cross-sectional area of a traditional round pipe with a diameter of approximately 32mm and a wall thickness of about 2mm-3mm), and also meets the restrictions on the pre-embedded height of conduits in modular buildings. This allows the electrical conduit system to be integrated with the modular building, thereby improving overall construction efficiency.
[0094] To better understand the above technical solutions, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention can be understood more clearly and thoroughly, and that the scope of the present invention can be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.
[0095] Example 1:
[0096] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment provides an electrical conduit system for modular buildings, which includes a flat straight pipe 1. The outer wall and inner hole of the flat straight pipe 1 have flat circular cross-sections. The width of the flat circular cross-section of the outer wall is less than or equal to 20 mm. The inner hole can accommodate at least 3 wires, and the total cross-sectional area of the wires is less than 40% of the cross-sectional area of the inner hole. The width of the flat circular cross-section of the outer wall and the flat circular cross-section of the inner hole are the same as the diameter of the semi-circular regions at both ends of the cross-section. The flat straight pipe 1 is a pipe with uniform wall thickness. Simultaneously, the flat straight pipe 1 can be embedded in the roof slab of a modular building, with the width direction of its cross-section parallel to the thickness direction of the roof slab during installation; the flat straight pipe 1 can also be embedded in the walls of a modular building, with the width direction of its cross-section parallel to the thickness direction of the wall; and the flat straight pipe 1 can also be embedded in the floor slab of a modular building, with the width direction of its cross-section parallel to the thickness direction of the floor slab. The flat straight pipe 1 is made of metal or plastic. It should be noted that although the minimum length of the flat straight pipe 1 is limited by the requirement that its inner hole can accommodate at least three wires, and the total cross-sectional area of the wires is less than 40% of the inner hole's cross-sectional area, its maximum length should also meet practical needs, i.e., it cannot exceed the maximum range of the wall it is embedded in, ensuring that it can be pre-embedded in the roof / wall / floor slab of the modular building. In this embodiment, the width dimension A1 of the outer wall cross-section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 16mm-20mm, the length dimension B1 of the outer wall cross-section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 16mm-83mm, and the wall thickness t1 of the flat straight pipe 1 is greater than or equal to 1mm.
[0097] When using, it is preferable to select from the following specifications:
[0098] Specification 1: The width A1 of the outer wall section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 16mm, the length B1 of the outer wall section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 24mm, and the wall thickness t1 of the flat straight pipe 1 is 2mm.
[0099] Specification 2: The width A1 of the outer wall section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 20mm, the length B1 of the outer wall section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 29mm, and the wall thickness t1 of the flat straight pipe 1 is 2mm.
[0100] Specification 3: The width A1 of the outer wall section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 20mm, the length B1 of the outer wall section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 49mm, and the wall thickness t1 of the flat straight pipe 1 is 3mm.
[0101] Of course, this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can set other specifications and sizes of flat straight pipe 1 according to actual needs. At the same time, the cross-section of the flat straight pipe 1 is not necessarily a flat oval shape with the same width dimension as the diameter dimension of the semi-circular area at both ends. It can also be a flat oval cross-section of other shapes, but it should be ensured that it can be buried in modular buildings and that the inner hole can be used for wires to pass through.
[0102] This embodiment changes the traditional circular cross-section of the pipe to a flattened circular cross-section, reducing the cross-sectional width. While ensuring that the cross-sectional area is greater than or equal to the original cross-sectional area, the length is correspondingly increased. This satisfies the pipe cross-sectional throughput requirements, ensuring the insertion of high-voltage power lines, and also meets the limitations of pipe diameter and pre-embedded height in modular buildings. It solves the problem that traditional circular pipes with a diameter of 25mm or greater are not suitable for installation in modular buildings due to the special nature of prefabricated building construction processes. This allows the electrical conduit system to be integrated with the modular building, improving construction efficiency.
[0103] Example 2:
[0104] Reference Figures 3 to 6 This embodiment provides an electrical conduit system for modular buildings, which includes a flat straight pipe 1 and a vertical elbow 2. The flat straight pipe 1 is the same as in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.
[0105] This embodiment is applicable to use between two adjacent walls that are perpendicular to each other, between walls and a top plate that are perpendicular to each other, and between walls and a bottom plate that are perpendicular to each other.
[0106] The interfaces on both sides of the vertical elbow 2 are flat and round, with the inner diameter matching the outer diameter of the flat straight pipe 1. One interface of the vertical elbow 2 is fitted and fixed to one end of a flat straight pipe 1, and the other interface is fitted and fixed to one end of another flat straight pipe 1. The flat straight pipes 1 connected to both ends of the vertical elbow 2 are arranged at a 90-degree angle. There is a through channel connecting the two ends of the vertical elbow 2, which communicates with the inner diameter of the flat straight pipes 1 connected to both sides.
[0107] The two flat straight pipes 1 connected to both sides of the vertical elbow 2 are respectively embedded in two adjacent perpendicular walls of the modular building, or respectively embedded in adjacent perpendicular walls and the base plate of the modular building, or respectively embedded in adjacent perpendicular walls and the top plate. The vertical elbow 2 can be embedded in the same wall / base plate / top plate as the flat straight pipe 1 it is connected to, or the vertical elbow 2 can be embedded in two perpendicular walls / wall and base plate / wall and top plate at the same time.
[0108] In summary, the vertical elbow 2 and the flat straight pipes 1 connected on both sides can be jointly embedded in two adjacent walls of a modular building, or in two adjacent walls and the base slab, or in two adjacent walls and the top slab. The specifications of the vertical elbow 2 are matched with the specifications of the flat straight pipe 1, and the material of the vertical elbow 2 is metal or plastic.
[0109] When using, the vertical elbow 2 is preferably selected from the following specifications:

[0113] Of course, this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can set other specifications and sizes of vertical elbows 2 according to actual needs, as long as the cross-sections of both ends match the connected flat straight pipe 1. At the same time, the transition section (i.e., the middle turning area) between the two ends of the vertical elbow 2 preferably adopts the same size as the cross-sectional size of the connected flat straight pipe 1, and uses the smallest possible bending radius to save the space occupied by the vertical elbow 2. Of course, other forms of turning can also be used, but it must be ensured that it can be buried in modular buildings and that the cross-sectional throughput is greater than or equal to that of the connected flat straight pipe 1.
[0114] In this embodiment, a corresponding vertical bend 2 is provided for the flat straight pipe 1, so that the two flat straight pipes 1 between two adjacent perpendicular walls, between two perpendicular walls and a top plate, and between two perpendicular walls and a bottom plate can be turned and connected. At the same time, the vertical bend 2 and the two flat straight pipes 1 can be buried together in the modular building, which improves the integration of the modular building and improves the construction efficiency.

[0117] The interfaces on both sides of the transverse elbow 3 are flat and round, with the inner diameter matching the outer diameter of the flat straight pipe 1. The interfaces on both sides of the transverse elbow 3 are respectively fitted and fixed to one end of a flat straight pipe 7. The flat straight pipes 1 connected to both ends of the transverse elbow 3 are arranged at 90 degrees or 45 degrees. A through channel connects the two ends of the transverse elbow 3, and this through channel communicates with the inner diameter of the flat straight pipes 1 connected to both sides.
[0118] The transverse elbow 3 and the flat straight pipes 1 connected on both sides can be jointly embedded in the same wall of the modular building, or jointly embedded in the same base slab of the modular building, or jointly embedded in the same roof slab of the modular building. The specifications of the transverse elbow 3 are matched with the specifications of the flat straight pipe 1, and the material of the transverse elbow 3 is metal or plastic.

[0126] Of course, this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can set other specifications and sizes of transverse elbows 3 according to actual needs, as long as the cross-sections of both ends match the connected flat straight pipe 1. At the same time, the transition section (i.e., the middle turning area) between the two ends of the transverse elbow 3 preferably adopts the same size as the cross-sectional size of the connected flat straight pipe 1, and uses the smallest possible bending radius to save the space occupied by the transverse elbow 3. Of course, other forms of turning can also be used, but it must be ensured that it can be embedded in modular buildings and that the cross-sectional throughput is greater than or equal to that of the connected flat straight pipe 1.
[0127] In this embodiment, a corresponding transverse elbow 3 is provided for the flat straight pipe 1, so that two flat straight pipes 1 at different angles in the same wall / base plate / top plate can be turned and connected. At the same time, the transverse elbow 3 and the two flat straight pipes 1 at different angles can be buried together in the modular building, which improves the integration of the modular building and improves the construction efficiency.
[0128] Example 4:
[0129] Reference Figures 14 to 17 This embodiment provides an electrical conduit system for modular buildings, which includes a flat straight pipe 1 and a bend elbow 4. The flat straight pipe 1 is the same as in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.
[0130] The interfaces on both sides of the bending elbow 4 are flat and round, and the inner hole size is the same as the outer wall size of the flat straight pipe 1. The interfaces on both sides of the bending elbow 4 are respectively fitted and fixed to one end of a flat straight pipe 1 and span across another flat straight pipe 1. There is a through channel connecting the two ends of the bending elbow 4, and this through channel is connected to the inner hole of the flat straight pipe 1 connected on both sides.
[0131] The bendable elbow 4, together with the flat straight pipes 1 connected to both sides and the other flat straight pipe 1 spanning it, can be jointly embedded in the same wall of the modular building, or in the same base slab of the modular building, or in the same roof slab of the modular building. The specifications of the bendable elbow 4 are matched with the specifications of the flat straight pipes 1, and the material of the bendable elbow 4 is metal or plastic.

[0134] Of course, this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can set other specifications and sizes of the bend elbow 4 according to actual needs, as long as the cross-sections of both ends match the connected flat straight pipe 1. At the same time, the transition section (i.e., the overlay area) between the two ends of the bend elbow 4 preferably adopts the same cross-section as the connected flat straight pipe 1, and the maximum pipe diameter that can be overlaid should also be selected to be the same size as the connected flat straight pipe 1. Of course, the pipe cross-section and the maximum pipe diameter that can be overlaid in the transition section (i.e., the overlay area) can also be selected in other forms and sizes, but it must be ensured that it can be buried in the modular building and the cross-sectional throughput is greater than or equal to that of the connected flat straight pipe 1.
[0135] In this embodiment, a corresponding bend 4 is provided for the flat straight pipe 1, so that two colliding flat straight pipes 1 in the same wall / base plate / top plate can avoid each other through the bend 4. At the same time, the bend 4, the flat straight pipes 1 connected at both ends, and the flat straight pipes 1 that are spread out can be buried together in the modular building, which improves the integration of the modular building and improves the construction efficiency.
[0136] Example 5:
[0137] Reference Figures 18 to 21 This embodiment provides an electrical conduit system for modular buildings, which includes a flat straight pipe 1, a round pipe 5 and a reducing adapter 6. The flat straight pipe 1 is the same as in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.
[0138] In this embodiment, the outer wall and inner bore of the circular tube 5 have circular cross-sections. One end of the reducing adapter 6 is a circular head 61, and the other end is a flattened oval head 62. The cross-sectional shape of the circular head 61 matches the cross-sectional shape of the circular tube 5, and the inner bore size of the circular head 61 is the same as the outer wall size of the circular tube 5. The cross-sectional shape of the flattened oval head 62 matches the cross-sectional shape of the flat straight tube 1, and the inner bore size of the flattened oval head 62 is the same as the outer wall size of the flat straight tube 1. The circular head 61 is fitted and fixed to one end of the circular tube 5, and the flattened oval head 62 is fitted and fixed to one end of the flat straight tube 1. The reducing adapter 6 has a through channel extending from the circular head 61 end to the flattened oval head 62 end, and this through channel communicates with the inner bores of the circular tube 5 and the flat straight tube 1. The circular tube 5 and the reducing adapter 6, together with the flat straight tube 1, can be embedded in the top / wall / bottom slab of a modular building. The round tube 5 and the reducing adapter 6 are made of metal or plastic.
[0139] When in use, the reducing adapter 6 is preferably selected from the following specifications:
[0140] Specification 1: The diameter D of the inner hole of the round head 61 is 20mm, the width A5 of the inner hole of the flat round head 62 is 16mm, the length B5 of the inner hole of the flat round head 62 is 24mm, and the wall thickness t5 of the reducing adapter 6 is 2mm.
[0141] Specification 2: The diameter D of the inner hole of the round head 61 is 25mm, the width A5 of the inner hole of the flat round head 62 is 20mm, the length B5 of the inner hole of the flat round head 62 is 29mm, and the wall thickness t5 of the reducing adapter 6 is 2mm.
[0142] Specification 3: The diameter D of the inner hole of the round head 61 is 32mm, the width A5 of the inner hole of the flat round head 62 is 20mm, the length B5 of the inner hole of the flat round head 62 is 49mm, and the wall thickness t5 of the reducing adapter 6 is 3mm.
[0143] Of course, this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can set other specifications and sizes of the reducing adapter 6 according to actual needs, as long as the cross-sections of both ends match the connected round pipe 5 and flat straight pipe 1. At the same time, the transition section between the two ends of the reducing adapter 6 (i.e., the area between the round head 61 end and the flat round head 62 end) preferably adopts a tapering form. Of course, other forms of transition can also be used, but it must be ensured that it can be embedded in modular buildings and that the cross-sectional throughput is greater than or equal to that of the connected flat straight pipe 1.
[0144] In this embodiment, a corresponding reducing adapter 6 is provided for the flat straight pipe 1, so that the traditional round pipe 5 can be converted and connected with the flat straight pipe 1, making the flat straight pipe 1 more widely applicable. At the same time, the round pipe 5 and the flat straight pipe 1 can be buried together in the modular building, which improves the integration of the modular building and improves the construction efficiency.
[0145] Example 6:
[0146] Reference Figure 22 and Figure 23 This embodiment provides an electrical conduit system for modular buildings, which includes a flat straight pipe 1, a round pipe 5, a reducing adapter 6 and a first electrical box 7. The flat straight pipe 1, the round pipe 5 and the reducing adapter 6 are the same as those in embodiment 5, and will not be described again here.
[0147] The thickness of the first electrical box 7 can be selected between 60mm and 100mm according to actual needs. The interface of the first electrical box 7 is a common circular interface. The first electrical box 7 is connected to the end of the circular tube 5 away from the reducer 6 through a metal lock nut connector or a plastic cup comb.
[0148] The first electrical box 7, along with the round pipe 5, the reducing adapter 6, and the flat straight pipe 1, can be embedded together in the wall of the modular building, and the thickness direction of the first electrical box 7 is parallel to the thickness direction of the wall.
[0149] In actual construction, when the round pipe 5 needs to be connected to the flat straight pipe 1, or when the flat straight pipe 1 needs to be connected to the electrical box / junction box with a traditional round interface, the reducing adapter 6 can be used to convert between round and flat pipes.
[0150] In this embodiment, the first electrical box 7 is configured with a selectable thickness, which can be selected according to the required wall thickness. At the same time, a variable diameter adapter 6 is provided to convert the round pipe 5 connected to the interface of the first electrical box 7 to the flat straight pipe 1. This allows the first electrical box 7, the round pipe 5, the variable diameter adapter 6, and the flat straight pipe 1 to be buried together in the modular building, which improves the integration of the modular building and increases construction efficiency.
[0151] Example 7:
[0152] Reference Figures 24 to 28 This embodiment provides an electrical conduit system for modular buildings, which includes a flat straight pipe 1 and a straight connector 8. The flat straight pipe 1 is the same as in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.
[0153] The interfaces on both sides of the straight connector 8 are identical, both being flat and round with inner diameters matching the outer wall size of the flat straight tube 1. A limiting section 81, with an inner diameter equal to the outer wall size of the flat straight tube 1, is provided between the interfaces on both sides of the straight connector 8. Each interface on both sides of the straight connector 8 is fitted and fixed to a flat straight tube 1, with the two flat straight tubes 1 abutting against both sides of the limiting section 81. A through channel connects the two ends of the straight connector 8, and this through channel communicates with the inner diameters of the flat straight tubes 1 connected on both sides.
[0154] The straight connector 8 and the flat straight pipes 1 connected on both sides can be embedded together in the walls / floor slabs / roof slabs of modular buildings. The specifications of the straight connector 8 are matched with those of the flat straight pipes 1, and the material of the straight connector 8 is metal or plastic.
[0155] When in use, the straight connector 8 is preferably of the following specifications:
[0156] Specification 1: The width A6 of the inner hole cross-section at both ends of the straight connector 8 is 16mm, the length B6 of the inner hole cross-section at both ends of the straight connector 8 is 24mm, the wall thickness t6 of the straight connector 8 is 2mm, the width A7 of the inner hole cross-section of the limiting section 81 is 12mm, the length B7 of the inner hole cross-section of the limiting section 81 is 20mm, the length E of the limiting section 81 is 4mm, and the wall thickness t7 of the limiting section 81 is 4mm;
[0157] Specification 2: The width A6 of the inner hole cross-section at both ends of the straight connector 8 is 20mm, the length B6 of the inner hole cross-section at both ends of the straight connector 8 is 29mm, the wall thickness t6 of the straight connector 8 is 2mm, the width A7 of the inner hole cross-section of the limiting section 81 is 16mm, the length B7 of the inner hole cross-section of the limiting section 81 is 25mm, the length E of the limiting section 81 is 4mm, and the wall thickness t7 of the limiting section 81 is 4mm;
[0158] Specification 3: The width A6 of the inner hole cross-section at both ends of the straight connector 8 is 20mm, the length B6 of the inner hole cross-section at both ends of the straight connector 8 is 49mm, the wall thickness t6 of the straight connector 8 is 3mm, the width A7 of the inner hole cross-section of the limiting section 81 is 14mm, the length B7 of the inner hole cross-section of the limiting section 81 is 43mm, the length E of the limiting section 81 is 6mm, and the wall thickness t7 of the limiting section 81 is 6mm.
[0159] Of course, this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can set other specifications and sizes of straight connectors 8 according to actual needs, as long as the interfaces at both ends match the cross-section of the connected flat straight pipe 1. At the same time, the inner hole size of the limiting section 81 between the interfaces at both ends of the straight connector 8 is preferably the same as the inner hole size of the connected flat straight pipe 1. Of course, the pipe cross-section of the limiting section 81 can also be selected in other forms and sizes, but it must be ensured that it can be buried in modular buildings and that the cross-sectional throughput is greater than or equal to that of the connected flat straight pipe 1, and that it can limit the installation of the flat straight pipe 1 to avoid the flat straight pipe 1 connected at both ends from penetrating into the straight connector 8 to a depth 1 that is too large or too small, thus affecting the installation strength.
[0160] In this embodiment, a corresponding straight connector 8 is provided for the flat straight pipe 1, so that two flat straight pipes 1 in the same direction in the same wall / base plate / top plate can be connected. At the same time, the straight connector 8 and the flat straight pipes 1 on both sides can be buried together in the modular building, which improves the integration of the modular building and improves the construction efficiency.
[0161] Example 8:
[0162] Reference Figures 29 to 33 This embodiment provides an electrical conduit system for modular buildings, which includes a flat straight pipe 1, a straight connector 8, a second electrical box 9, and a first straight-through connector 10. The flat straight pipe 1 and the straight connector 8 are the same as in embodiment 7, and will not be described again here.
[0163] The thickness of the second electrical box 9 can be selected between 60mm and 100mm according to actual needs, and the interface of the second electrical box 9 is a flat oval interface, the opening size of which is the same as the outer wall size of the flat straight pipe 1.
[0164] The first straight-through connector 10 is provided with a first large-diameter section 101 and a first small-diameter section 102. The outer wall size of the first large-diameter section 101 is larger than the size of the interface of the second electrical box 9. The outer wall size of the first small-diameter section 102 is the same as the outer wall size of the flat straight pipe 1. That is, the opening size of the interface of the second electrical box 9, the outer wall size of the first small-diameter section 102 and the outer wall size of the flat straight pipe 1 are consistent.
[0165] During installation, the first small-diameter section 102 of the first plug-in connector 10 passes through the interface of the second electrical box 9, that is, the first small-diameter section 102 protrudes from the inside of the interface of the second electrical box 9. The end of the straight connector 8 away from the flat straight tube 1 is sleeved and fixed on the end of the first small-diameter section 102 that protrudes. The inner wall surface of the interface of the second electrical box 9 abuts against the side wall of the first large-diameter section 101 on the first plug-in connector 10, and the outer wall surface of the interface of the second electrical box 9 abuts against the side wall of the straight connector 8. The first plug-in connector 10 has a through channel connecting its two ends, which is connected to the inner hole of the straight connector 8 connected to its two ends and the interior of the second electrical box 9.
[0166] The second electrical box 9 and the first straight-through connector 10, together with the straight connector 8 and the flat straight pipe 1, can be embedded in the wall of the modular building. The thickness direction of the second electrical box 9 is parallel to the thickness direction of the wall. The specifications of the interface of the second electrical box 9 and the specifications of the first straight-through connector 10 are matched with the specifications of the straight connector 8 and the flat straight pipe 1. The material of the first straight-through connector 10 is metal or plastic.

[0168] The width A8 of the outer wall of the first major diameter section 101 is 26mm, the length B8 of the outer wall of the first major diameter section 101 is 55mm, the wall thickness t8 of the first major diameter section 101 is 3mm; the width A9 of the outer wall of the first minor diameter section 102 is 20mm, the length B9 of the outer wall of the first minor diameter section 102 is 49mm, and the wall thickness t9 of the first minor diameter section 102 is 3mm.
[0169] Of course, this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can set other specifications and sizes of the first straight-insertion connector 10 according to actual needs, as long as it is compatible with the size of the straight connector 8 and the interface of the second electrical box 9. The outer wall shape of its first large-diameter section 101 can also be the same flat oval shape as the first small-diameter section 102 and the flat straight tube 1, or it can be other shapes, such as circles, polygons, etc., as long as its large-diameter section can abut against the inner wall at the interface of the second electrical box 9. At the same time, the size of the inner hole of the first large-diameter section 101 and the first small-diameter section 102 is preferably set to be the same as the size of the inner hole of the flat straight tube 1 to ensure the throughput of the inner hole.
[0170] This embodiment includes a second electrical box 9 and a first straight-through connector 10 adapted to the straight connector 8. The appropriate second electrical box 9 can be selected according to the required wall thickness. Furthermore, the second electrical box 9 is connected to the flat straight pipe 1 through the direct cooperation between the straight connector 8 and the first straight-through connector 10, which is very convenient. At the same time, the straight connector 8, the second electrical box 9, and the first straight-through connector 10 can all be buried together with the flat straight pipe 1 in the modular building, which improves the integration of the modular building and improves the construction efficiency.
[0171] Example 9:
[0172] Reference Figure 34 and Figure 41 This embodiment provides an electrical conduit system for modular buildings, which includes a flat straight pipe 1, a third electrical box 11, a second straight-insertion connector 12, and a straight-insertion connector sleeve 13.

The inner hole dimension of the second small-diameter section 122 is the same as the outer wall dimension of the flat straight pipe 1, and the outer wall dimension of the second small-diameter section 122 is the same as the interface dimension of the third electrical box 11. The inner hole dimension of the through-hole connector sleeve 13 is the same as the outer wall dimension of the second small-diameter section 122 of the second through-hole connector 12.
[0175] During installation, the second small-diameter section 122 of the second through-hole connector 12 passes through the interface of the third electrical box 11, that is, the second small-diameter section 122 protrudes from the inside of the interface of the third electrical box 11, and one end of the protruding section is fitted and fixed to a flat straight tube 1. Then, the through-hole connector sleeve 13 is fitted and fixed to the second small-diameter section 122 of the second through-hole connector 12. The inner wall surface of the interface of the third electrical box 11 abuts against the side wall of the second large-diameter section 121 of the second through-hole connector 12, and the outer wall surface of the interface of the third electrical box 11 abuts against the side wall of the through-hole connector sleeve 13. The two ends of the second through-hole connector 12 have a through channel that communicates with both ends of the flat straight tube 1 and the interior of the third electrical box 11.
[0176] The third electrical box 11, the second direct-insertion connector 12, and the direct-insertion connector sleeve 13, together with the flat straight pipe 1, can be embedded in the wall of the modular building. The thickness direction of the third electrical box 11 is parallel to the thickness direction of the wall. The specifications of the second direct-insertion connector 12 and the direct-insertion connector sleeve 13 are matched with the specifications of the interface of the flat straight pipe 1 and the third electrical box 11. The materials of the second direct-insertion connector 12 and the direct-insertion connector sleeve 13 are metal or plastic.
[0177] To avoid inconvenience caused by too many interface sizes in the third electrical box 11, the interface sizes on the third electrical box 11 can be set to fixed sizes. Furthermore, the inner hole size of the second small diameter section 122 of the second straight-insertion connector 12 can be adjusted to adapt to flat straight pipes 1 of different specifications.
[0178] When in use, the second straight-insertion connector 12 preferably has the following specifications:

[0183] The straight-insertion connector sleeve 13 of this specification is also compatible with both specification one and specification two of the second straight-insertion connector 12.
[0184] Of course, this utility model is not limited to this. Those skilled in the art can set other specifications and sizes of the second straight-insertion connector 12 and the straight-insertion connector sleeve 13 according to actual needs, as long as they are compatible with the dimensions of the flat straight pipe 1 and the interface of the third electrical box 11. The outer wall shape of its second large-diameter section 121 can also be the same flat round shape as the second small-diameter section 122 and the flat straight pipe 1, or it can be other shapes, such as circles, polygons, etc., as long as its large-diameter section can abut against the inner wall at the interface of the third electrical box 11. At the same time, the connection between the second straight-insertion connector 12 and the flat straight pipe 1 can be in the form of insertion or bonding on site, or it can be in the form of pre-molded integral processing (such as...). Figure 41 ).
[0185] This embodiment includes a third electrical box 11 adapted to the flat straight pipe 1, a second direct-insertion connector 12, and a direct-insertion connector sleeve 13. The appropriate third electrical box 11 can be selected according to the required wall thickness. Furthermore, the third electrical box 11 is connected to the flat straight pipe 1 through the cooperation of the second direct-insertion connector 12 and the direct-insertion connector sleeve 13. The size of the interface of the third electrical box 11 can also be set to a fixed form. By adjusting the inner hole size of the second direct-insertion connector 12, it can be adapted to flat straight pipes 1 of different specifications, which is very convenient.
[0186] Meanwhile, the third electrical box 11, the second direct-insertion connector 12, and the direct-insertion connector sleeve 13 can all be buried together with the flat straight pipe 1 in the modular building, which improves the integration of the modular building and increases construction efficiency.
[0187] The electrical conduit system shown in this utility model, in actual use, uses flat straight pipes 1 with specifications of 20×29×2 (i.e., the width A1 of the outer wall section of flat straight pipe 1 is 20mm, the length B1 of the outer wall section of flat straight pipe 1 is 29mm, and the wall thickness t1 of flat straight pipe 1 is 2mm) and 20×49×3 (i.e., the width A1 of the outer wall section of flat straight pipe 1 is 20mm, the length B1 of the outer wall section of flat straight pipe 1 is 49mm, and the wall thickness t1 of flat straight pipe 1 is 3mm) and other pipe fittings of corresponding specifications. The following components are commonly used at the entrance of each module: vertical elbow 2, horizontal elbow 3, bend elbow 4, reducer 6, straight connector 8, first straight-through connector 10, second straight-through connector 12, and straight-through connector sleeve 13. The flat straight pipe 1 with specifications of 16×24×2 (i.e., the width A1 of the outer wall section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 16mm, the length B1 of the outer wall section of the flat straight pipe 1 is 20mm, and the wall thickness t1 of the flat straight pipe 1 is 2mm) and other corresponding pipe fittings are commonly used in prefabricated thin walls. Of course, this utility model is not limited to this; those skilled in the art can set other specifications of flat straight pipe 1 and other corresponding pipe fittings according to actual needs.
[0188] When the flat straight pipe 1 is connected to other pipe fittings of the same specification, it can be connected by direct insertion or by snap-fit connection, etc. Those skilled in the art can freely choose the connection method according to actual needs. At the same time, the electrical conduit systems shown in Embodiments 1 to 9 are not exclusive, and those skilled in the art can freely combine and use Embodiments 1 to 9 according to actual needs.
[0189] To facilitate understanding, several use cases are briefly described below:
[0190] Scene 1:
[0191] A third electrical box 11 is installed in the wall at the entrance. The third electrical box 11 is connected to the flat straight pipe 1 through the second straight connector 12 and the straight connector sleeve 13, and extends along the wall to the top plate. A 90-degree vertical elbow 2 is used to connect the flat straight pipe 1 installed vertically in the wall to the flat straight pipe 1 installed horizontally in the top plate. The flat straight pipe 1 in the top plate is then turned by a 45-degree horizontal elbow 3 or a 90-degree horizontal elbow 3 to connect with other flat straight pipes 1 installed in the top plate. When two flat straight pipes 1 collide, if the pipe has a smaller diameter, they can be stacked directly on top of each other. If the pipe has a larger diameter, they can be avoided by bending elbow 4.
[0192] Scene 2:
[0193] If the electrical box used is not the third electrical box 11 with a flat round interface, but the first electrical box 7 with a traditional round interface, then the first electrical box 7 is buried in the wall at the entrance. The first electrical box 7 is connected to the round pipe 5 through a metal lock nut connector or a plastic cup comb. The end of the round pipe 5 away from the electrical box is connected to the round head 61 of the reducer 6. The flat round head 42 is connected to the flat straight pipe 1. The round pipe 5, the reducer 6 and the flat straight pipe 1 are all buried in the wall together with the first electrical box 7. The flat straight pipe 1 then extends along the wall to the top plate for other connections.
