Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable structure technology, and in particular to a flexible cable fixing structure. Background Technology

[0002] Flexible cables are a common type of cable, widely used in power transmission, data transmission, and communication control. Flat cables are a common type of flexible cable, characterized by their flat cross-section. Flat cables typically consist of a flat outer protective layer and multiple core wires, arranged sequentially within the outer protective layer along its width.

[0003] During the installation of flat cables, fasteners (usually cable clips) are used to secure them to walls and other surfaces. However, in some applications, the size of the fasteners may not match the size of the flat cables (for example, the width of the fastener's slot may be greater than the width of the flat cable), causing the flat cables to slip laterally within the fasteners and making it impossible to secure them completely.

[0036] [First Embodiment]

[0037] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, the first embodiment of this utility model provides a flexible cable fixing structure, including a flat cable 1 and at least one fixing component 2. The flat cable 1 includes a flat outer protective layer 11 and multiple core wires 12. The outer protective layer 11 has a length direction L, a width direction W, and a thickness direction that are perpendicular to each other. The multiple core wires 12 are sequentially arranged within the outer protective layer 11 along the width direction W (the multiple core wires 12 can be spaced apart within the outer protective layer 11 along the width direction W, or the multiple core wires 12 can be arranged adjacent to each other within the outer protective layer 11 along the width direction W). The outer protective layer 11 and the core wires 12 extend along the length direction L. The core wire 12 includes a conductor 121 and an insulation layer 122 covering the conductor 121. The conductor 121 is made of metal materials such as copper and aluminum, and the outer protective layer 11 and the insulation layer 122 can be made of insulating materials such as rubber, polyester, and fluoroplastics. Along the thickness direction T, grooves 111 are provided on the outer surfaces of opposite sides of the outer protective layer 11, and the grooves 111 extend continuously along the length direction L. For details on the specific structure of the flat cable 1, please refer to existing technologies (such as patents CN108573768A, CN203536089U, CN112164501A, etc.), which will not be elaborated here.

[0038] The fixing component 2 includes a locking member 21 and a locking accessory 22. The locking member 21 has a slot 21A, and the flat cable 1 is located in the slot 21A. A first protrusion 21B is provided on the inner wall of the locking member 21 (i.e., the inner wall of the slot 21A). The first protrusion 21B corresponds to the groove 111, and the shape and size of the first protrusion 21B are adapted to the groove 111, and the first protrusion 21B is engaged within the groove 111. The locking accessory 22 is connected to the locking member 21 and is used to fix the locking member 21 to a designated position. The designated position varies depending on the application scenario; for example, it can be a wall, equipment casing, pipe, etc. Each first protrusion 21B is an elongated strip structure extending along the length direction L.

[0039] Specifically, during installation, the locking component 21 is first assembled with the flat cable 1. At this time, the flat cable 1 is located in the locking groove 21A of the locking component 21, and the first protrusion 21B on the locking component 21 is engaged in the groove 111 on the outer surface of the flat cable 1, thereby preventing the flat cable 1 from sliding left and right in the width direction W within the locking groove 21A, thus better securing the flat cable 1. Meanwhile, as... Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, when the width of the slot 21A is greater than the width of the flat cable 1 (i.e., the width of the slot 21A does not match the width of the flat cable 1), the first protrusion 21B can also prevent the flat cable 1 from sliding left and right in the width direction W within the slot 21A due to its locking and limiting effect; therefore, the fixing component 2 can be adapted to the fixing of flat cables 1 of different widths.

[0040] The flexible cable fixing structure provided in this embodiment provides a first protrusion 21B on the inner wall of the snap fastener 21. The first protrusion 21B is snapped into the groove 111 on the outer surface of the flat cable 1, thereby better fixing the flat cable 1, preventing the flat cable 1 from sliding left and right, and can adapt to the fixing of flat cables 1 of different widths.

[0041] In one implementation, along the thickness direction T, the depth of the slot 21A is equal to the thickness of the flat cable 1.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the outer protective layer 11 has multiple grooves 111 on its opposite outer surfaces, and the grooves 111 on opposite sides of the outer protective layer 11 correspond one-to-one along the thickness direction T; the multiple grooves 111 on each side of the outer protective layer 11 are arranged at intervals along the width direction W, and each groove 111 is located between two adjacent core wires 12. The inner wall of the engaging member 21 has multiple first protrusions 21B, which are arranged at intervals along the width direction W. The number of first protrusions 21B is greater than or equal to the number of grooves 111 on each side of the outer protective layer 11, and at least some of the first protrusions 21B can be engaged in different grooves 111 respectively.

[0043] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the width of the slot 21A along the width direction W is equal to the width of the flat cable 1. The number of first protrusions 21B on the inner wall of the engaging member 21 is equal to the number of grooves 111 on each side of the outer protective layer 11, and each first protrusion 21B is engaged in a different groove 111. For example, the inner wall of the engaging member 21 is provided with three first protrusions 21B, and each side of the outer protective layer 11 is provided with three grooves 111, and the three first protrusions 21B on the engaging member 21 are engaged in the three grooves 111 on one side of the outer protective layer 11.

[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, in another embodiment, the width of the slot 21A is greater than the width of the flat cable 1 along the width direction W. The number of first protrusions 21B on the inner wall of the engaging member 21 is greater than the number of grooves 111 on each side of the outer protective layer 11, and some of the first protrusions 21B are respectively engaged in different grooves 111. For example, as Figure 4 As shown, the inner wall of the engaging component 21 has three first protrusions 21B, and both sides of the outer protective layer 11 have two grooves 111. Two of the first protrusions 21B on the engaging component 21 are respectively engaged in the two grooves 111 on one side of the outer protective layer 11. For example, as... Figure 5As shown, the inner wall of the snap fastener 21 is provided with three first protrusions 21B, and both sides of the outer protective layer 11 are provided with a groove 111. One of the first protrusions 21B on the snap fastener 21 is snapped into one of the grooves 111 on one side of the outer protective layer 11.

[0045] In one embodiment, the engaging part 21 is a rigid plastic part, and the first protrusion 21B is an integral structure with the engaging part 21. The first protrusion 21B can be integrally formed during the injection molding of the engaging part 21.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the lock accessory 22 is a screw 22A, and the engaging member 21 has a screw hole 21C for the screw 22A to pass through. After the screw 22A passes through the screw hole 21C, it fixes the engaging member 21 to the designated position by means of a threaded connection. Specifically, the engaging member 21 has screw holes 21C on both sides along the width direction W, and screws 22A are connected to both sides of the engaging member 21 along the width direction W to better fix the engaging member 21.

[0047] like Figure 7 As shown, in another embodiment, the lock accessory 22 is a magnetic 22B, which is fixed to the locking member 21. The magnetic 22B is used to magnetically attract and fix the locking member 21 to a designated position. It should be noted that this fixing method has certain requirements for the application scenario. It needs to be used in a scenario where the designated position is ferromagnetic (for example, the designated position is the casing of the device, and the casing is made of ferromagnetic material). Specifically, the magnetic 22B can be a magnet, a magnetic steel, etc. The magnetic 22B can be embedded in the locking member 21 (for example, if the locking member 21 is a plastic part, during the injection molding of the locking member 21, the locking member 21 can be injection molded on the basis of the magnetic 22B, thereby embedding the magnetic 22B in the locking member 21). The locking member 21 has magnetic 22B on both sides along the width direction W to better fix the locking member 21. Of course, in other embodiments, the locking attachment 22 may also be an adhesive layer (not shown in the figure), which is disposed on the surface of the engaging member 21 and can adhere and fix the engaging member 21 to a designated position.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the latching member 21 includes a first latch 211, a latch groove 21A disposed on the first latch 211, and a first protrusion 21B disposed on the inner wall of the first latch 211. The first protrusion 21B on the first latch 211 is engaged in a groove 111 on one side of the outer protective layer 11, and the side wall of the other side of the outer protective layer 11 is in contact with a designated position. A locking attachment 22 is connected to the first latch 211 and is used to fix the first latch 211 to the designated position.

[0049] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the first buckle 211 includes a main board portion 2111 and folding plate portions 2112 disposed on both sides of the main board portion 2111. A slot 21A is disposed between the main board portion 2111 and the folding plate portions 2112 on both sides. A first protrusion 21B is disposed on the inner wall of the main board portion 2111. Screw holes 21C are provided on both sides of the folding plate portions 2112, and screws 22A are connected to both sides of the folding plate portions 2112 to fix them to a designated position. Figure 7 As shown, in another embodiment, magnetic suction members 22B are embedded in both sides of the folded plate portion 2112, and the magnetic suction members 22B fix the folded plate portion 2112 on both sides to a designated position by magnetic force.

[0050] like Figure 6 As shown, in another embodiment, the first buckle 211 is provided with a support foot 2110, which is an integral structure with the first buckle 211. A locking accessory 22 is connected to the support foot 2110 and is used to fix the support foot 2110 to a designated position. Specifically, the first buckle 211 has support feet 2110 on both sides along its width direction W, and each support foot 2110 has a screw hole for a screw 22A to pass through. The support feet 2110 are fixed to the designated position by screws 22A. By providing support feet 2110, the contact area between the first buckle 211 and the designated position can be increased, thereby increasing the connection stability of the first buckle 211.

[0051] like Figure 8As shown, in another embodiment, the latching component 21 includes a first latch 211 and a second latch 212. The first latch 211 and the second latch 212 are arranged opposite to each other along the thickness direction T (the first latch 211 and the second latch 212 are symmetrically arranged along the thickness direction T). A slot 21A is disposed between the first latch 211 and the second latch 212 (specifically, both the first latch 211 and the second latch 212 are provided with a half-groove, and the slot 21A is formed by the half-groove on the first latch 211 and the half-groove on the second latch 212). The inner wall of the first latch 211 and the inner wall of the second latch 212 are provided with a first protrusion 21B. The flat cable 1 is clamped between the first latch 211 and the second latch 212. The first protrusion 21B on the first latch 211 and the first protrusion 21B on the second latch 212 are respectively locked in the grooves 111 on opposite sides of the outer protective layer 11. Both the sidewall of the first latch 211 away from the second latch 212 and the sidewall of the second latch 212 away from the first latch 211 are planar structures. The locking accessory 22 is connected to both the first latch 211 and the second latch 212, and is used to fix the first latch 211 and the second latch 212 to a designated position. In this case, the locking accessory 22 is generally a screw 22A. Screw holes for the screw 22A are provided on both sides of the first latch 211 and both sides of the second latch 212. The first latch 211 and the second latch 212 are simultaneously fixed to the designated position by the screw 22A.

[0052] [Second Embodiment]

[0053] like Figures 9 to 11 As shown, the flexible cable fixing structure provided in the second embodiment of this utility model is largely the same as that in the first embodiment, except that the structure of the fixing component 2 is different.

[0054] Specifically, in this embodiment, the flexible cable fixing structure includes a flat cable 1 and a fixing component 2. The flat cable 1 includes a flat outer protective layer 11 and multiple core wires 12. The outer protective layer 11 has a length direction L, a width direction W, and a thickness direction that are perpendicular to each other. The multiple core wires 12 are sequentially arranged within the outer protective layer 11 along the width direction W. Each core wire 12 includes a conductor 121 and an insulating layer 122 covering the conductor 121. Along the thickness direction T, grooves 111 are provided on the outer surfaces of opposite sides of the outer protective layer 11, and the grooves 111 extend continuously along the length direction L.

[0055] The fixing component 2 includes a locking member 21 and a locking accessory 22. The locking member 21 has a slot 21A, and the flat cable 1 is located in the slot 21A. A flexible pad 23 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the locking member 21 (that is, on the inner wall of the slot 21A). The flexible pad 23 can be glued to the inner wall of the locking member 21. The flexible pad 23 is sandwiched between the flat cable 1 and the locking member 21. The hardness of the flexible pad 23 is less than that of the locking member 21. The flexible pad 23 can undergo elastic deformation after being compressed, so that a second protrusion 23A is formed on the flexible pad 23 and is locked in the groove 111. The locking accessory 22 is connected to the locking member 21 and is used to fix the locking member 21 to a designated position.

[0056] Specifically, in this embodiment, the engaging component 21 is a rigid plastic part, and the flexible pad 23 is made of flexible silicone material. The hardness of the flexible pad 23 can be 5-30 HA (Shore A). Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, before installation, the flexible pad 23 is flat before being compressed, meaning that the second protrusion 23A is not formed on the flexible pad 23; as Figure 11 As shown, after installation, the flexible pad 23 is compressed by the engaging component 21, causing the side of the flexible pad 23 facing the flat cable 1 to undergo elastic deformation. A second protrusion 23A is adaptively formed according to the shape and position of the groove 111 on the flat cable 1. The second protrusion 23A is engaged within the groove 111, thereby preventing the flat cable 1 from sliding left and right along the width direction W within the slot 21A, thus better securing the flat cable 1. Simultaneously, when the width of the slot 21A is greater than the width of the flat cable 1 (i.e., the width of the slot 21A does not match the width of the flat cable 1), the engaging and limiting effect of the second protrusion 23A also prevents the flat cable 1 from sliding left and right along the width direction W within the slot 21A. Therefore, this fixing component 2 can adapt to the fixing of flat cables 1 of different widths.

[0057] The flexible cable fixing structure provided in this embodiment provides a flexible pad 23 on the inner wall of the snap fastener 21. The flexible pad 23 can undergo elastic deformation and form a second protrusion 23A after being squeezed. The second protrusion 23A is used to lock into the groove 111 on the outer surface of the flat cable 1, thereby better fixing the flat cable 1, preventing the flat cable 1 from sliding left and right, and can adapt to the fixing of flat cables 1 with different widths.

[0058] like Figures 9 to 11 As shown, in one embodiment, the width of the slot 21A along the width direction W is equal to the width of the flat cable 1.

[0059] like Figures 9 to 11As shown, in one embodiment, the outer protective layer 11 has multiple grooves 111 on its opposite outer surfaces, and the grooves 111 on opposite sides of the outer protective layer 11 correspond one-to-one along the thickness direction T; the multiple grooves 111 on each side of the outer protective layer 11 are arranged at intervals along the width direction W, and each groove 111 is located between two adjacent core wires 12. The flexible pad 23 can undergo elastic deformation after being compressed, so that multiple second protrusions 23A are formed on the flexible pad 23, and the multiple second protrusions 23A are respectively stuck in different grooves 111.

[0060] like Figures 9 to 11 As shown, in one embodiment, the lock accessory 22 is a screw 22A, and the engaging member 21 has a screw hole 21C for the screw 22A to pass through. After the screw 22A passes through the screw hole 21C, it fixes the engaging member 21 to the designated position by means of a threaded connection. Specifically, the engaging member 21 has screw holes 21C on both sides along the width direction W, and screws 22A are connected to both sides of the engaging member 21 along the width direction W to better fix the engaging member 21.

[0061] As another implementation, the lock accessory 22 is a magnetic attractor 22B (see reference). Figure 7 The magnetic clasp 22B is fixed to the locking member 21. The magnetic clasp 22B is used to magnetically attract and fix the locking member 21 to a designated position. Specifically, the magnetic clasp 22B can be a magnet, a magnetic steel, etc. The magnetic clasp 22B can be embedded in the locking member 21. The locking member 21 has magnetic clasp 22B on both sides along the width direction W to better fix the locking member 21. Of course, in other embodiments, the locking accessory 22 can also be an adhesive layer (not shown in the figure). The adhesive layer is disposed on the surface of the locking member 21 and can adhere and fix the locking member 21 to a designated position.

[0062] like Figures 9 to 11 As shown, in one embodiment, the latching member 21 includes a first latch 211, a latch groove 21A disposed on the first latch 211, a flexible pad 23 disposed on the inner wall of the first latch 211, the flexible pad 23 contacting the surface of one side of the flat cable 1 and forming a second protrusion 23A, and the side wall of the other side of the flat cable 1 contacting a designated position; the locking attachment 22 is connected to the first latch 211, and the locking attachment 22 is used to fix the first latch 211 to the designated position.

[0063] Specifically, such as Figures 9 to 11As shown, in this embodiment, the first buckle 211 includes a main board portion 2111 and folding plate portions 2112 disposed on both sides of the main board portion 2111. A slot 21A is disposed between the main board portion 2111 and the folding plate portions 2112 on both sides. A flexible pad 23 is disposed on the inner wall of the main board portion 2111. Screw holes 21C are provided on both sides of the folding plate portions 2112, and screws 22A are connected to both sides of the folding plate portions 2112 to fix them to a designated position. In another embodiment, magnetic suction members 22B are embedded in both sides of the folding plate portions 2112, and the magnetic suction members 22B fix the folding plate portions 2112 on both sides to a designated position using magnetic force.

[0064] In another implementation, the first buckle 211 is provided with a support foot 2110 (see reference). Figure 6 The support foot 2110 and the first buckle 211 are integrally formed. The locking accessory 22 is connected to the support foot 2110 and is used to fix the support foot 2110 to a designated position. Specifically, the first buckle 211 has support feet 2110 on both sides along the width direction W. Each support foot 2110 has a screw hole for a screw 22A to pass through. The support feet 2110 on both sides are fixed to the designated position by screws 22A. By providing support feet 2110, the contact area between the first buckle 211 and the designated position can be increased, thereby increasing the connection stability of the first buckle 211.

[0065] like Figure 12As shown, in another embodiment, the latching component 21 includes a first latch 211 and a second latch 212. The first latch 211 and the second latch 212 are arranged opposite to each other along the thickness direction T (the first latch 211 and the second latch 212 are symmetrically arranged along the thickness direction T).
