It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters in the following drawings denote similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it need not be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0030] Example 1:

[0031] This embodiment provides a cable tray, including:

[0032] The storage assembly includes a base frame 1 and two movable frames 2. The two movable frames 2 are movably connected to both sides of the base frame 1 along the Y direction and together with the base frame 1 form a wiring groove. The base frame 1 is provided with a first limiting structure, which is used to restrict the movement of the movable frames 2 along the Y direction. The movable frames 2 have connection holes 21 on their side walls along the Y direction.

[0033] The sealing assembly includes a base plate 3 and two movable plates 4. The two movable plates 4 are movably and adjustably connected to both sides of the base plate 3 along the Y direction. The base plate 3 is provided with a second limiting structure for restricting the movement of the movable plates 4 along the Y direction. The movable plates 4 are provided with a snap-fit ​​member 5 that is adapted to snap-fit ​​the connection hole 21.

[0034] In this technical solution, when the cable tray is in use, the relative distance between the two movable frames 2 in the Y direction is first adjusted. Then, the movable frames 2 are fixed by a first limiting structure, so that the size of the wiring trough formed by the base frame 1 and the two movable frames 2 can be adjusted to accommodate different numbers or thicknesses of cables. Next, the relative distance between the two movable plates 4 in the Y direction is adjusted, and the two movable plates 4 are fixed by a second limiting structure, so that the cover assembly formed by the base plate 3 and the two movable plates 4 can be adjusted to cover wiring troughs of different sizes. Then, the cover assembly is connected and fixed to the storage assembly by the matching snap-fit ​​between the snap-fit ​​piece 5 on the movable plate 4 and the connecting hole 21, satisfying the Z-direction limitation of the cable and preventing the cable from detaching from the storage assembly.

[0035] In summary, this cable tray allows for adjustment of the size of the wiring troughs used to place cables and the size of the cover components used to cover the wiring troughs, enabling the cable tray to accommodate cable arrangements of different sizes and quantities. It has a wider range of applications, good compatibility, and high practicality.

[0036] Example 2:

[0037] This embodiment provides a cable tray, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0038] Furthermore, the first limiting structure includes:

[0039] Slot 11 is provided on both sides of the base frame 1 along the Y direction, and a fixing hole 12 is provided on the slot 11 along the Z direction;

[0040] A connecting plate 22 is disposed on the movable frame 2 for insertion and mating with the slot 11, and a plurality of first mounting holes 23 are provided on the connecting plate 22 along the Z direction;

[0041] The first fastener passes through the fixing hole 12 and the first mounting hole 23.

[0042] In this technical solution, the movable connection between the connecting plate 22 and the slot 11 is utilized. By adjusting the position of the movable connecting plate 22 within the slot 11, one of the first mounting holes 23 on the connecting plate 22 is aligned and connected to the fixing hole 12. Then, by installing a first fastener that passes through the fixing hole 12 and the first mounting hole 23, the connection and fixation between the connecting plate 22 and the slot 1 are achieved, thereby limiting and fixing the movable frame 2 and the base frame 1. Simultaneously, the detachable connection between the movable frame 2 and the base frame 1 facilitates maintenance and replacement of the individual movable frame 2 and base frame 1, reducing maintenance costs.

[0043] Example 3:

[0044] This embodiment provides a cable tray, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0045] Furthermore, the second limiting structure includes:

[0046] A limiting hole 31 is provided on the substrate 3 along the Z direction;

[0047] The slide groove 32 is provided to penetrate the substrate 3 along the Y direction, and the movable plate 4 is provided in the slide groove 32 movably along the Y direction;

[0048] A plurality of second mounting holes 41 are provided on the movable plate 4 along the Z direction and arranged in a linear array along the Y direction;

[0049] The second fastener passes through the limiting hole 31 and the second mounting hole 41.

[0050] In this technical solution, grooves 32 are provided on both sides of the substrate 3 along the Y direction. The movable plate 4 is movable and adjustable within the substrate 3 through the grooves 32. Then, the limiting hole 31 on the substrate 3 is aligned and connected with a second mounting hole 41 on the movable plate 4. A second fastener is then used to connect the substrate 3 and the movable plate 4 through the limiting hole 31 and the second mounting hole 41, thereby achieving a limiting connection between the substrate 3 and the movable plate 4. At the same time, the detachable structure facilitates disassembly and maintenance, and has high practicality.

[0051] Example 4:

[0052] This embodiment provides a cable tray, which, in addition to the technical solutions of the above embodiments, also has the following technical features.

[0053] Furthermore, the connector 5 includes:

[0054] Deformation part 51 is connected to the movable plate 4. The deformation part 51 is arranged in a "U" shape and can elastically stretch and contract along the Y direction.

[0055] The connecting part 52 is disposed on the deformable part 51 and located inside the connecting hole 21, and is used to abut and cooperate with the connecting hole 21 in the Z direction.

[0056] In this technical solution, the connecting hole 21 is opened on the inner wall of the movable frame 2 along the Y direction, and the snap-fit ​​part 5 is made of metal and has a certain degree of elasticity. When the cover assembly is installed on the storage assembly, the two movable plates 4 of the cover assembly abut against the top of the two movable frames 2 along the Z direction, the U-shaped deformation part 51 abuts against the inner wall of the movable frame 2 along the Y direction, and the connecting part 52 provided on the deformation part 51 extends into the connecting hole 21 and abuts against the connecting hole 21 along the Z direction, thereby limiting the movable plate 4 and preventing the movable plate 4 from separating from the movable frame 2.

[0057] Furthermore, the connector 5 also includes:

[0058] The extrusion part 53 is disposed on the deformation part 51 and abuts against the outside of the placement assembly along the Z direction.

[0059] With this structural design, the operator can push the extrusion part 53 along the Y direction to cause the deformation part 51 to contract, so that the connecting part 52 can be withdrawn from the connecting hole 21, thereby realizing the separation between the moving plate 4 and the moving frame 2, and thus realizing the disassembly and separation of the cover assembly on the storage assembly. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0060] Furthermore, the extrusion part 53 is provided with an arc-shaped contact surface 54. By providing the arc-shaped contact surface 54, the operator's hands are prevented from being scratched by sharp edges, thereby enhancing the protection of the human body and improving the safety of use.

[0061] Furthermore, the movable frame 2 is also provided with a fixing magnetic sheet 24, which is attracted and fixed to the pressing part 53. The fixing magnetic sheet 24 is provided on the top of the movable frame 2 along the Z direction. When the pressing part 53 and the top of the movable frame 2 in the Z direction abut, the fixing magnetic sheet 24 attracts and fixes the pressing part 53, which enhances the stability and can, to a certain extent, prevent the pressing part 53 from moving due to accidental contact, and effectively prevent the connecting part 52 from detaching from the connecting hole 21.

[0062] The embodiments of this application have been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. This application is not limited to the specific embodiments described above. The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive.
