Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of optical cable support devices, and specifically to an optical cable support device. Background Technology

[0002] Optical cable support devices are used to support and protect optical cables, primarily ensuring their stability during transmission and preventing interference and damage from external factors. They are widely used in telecommunications network construction, data centers, building cabling systems, and various applications requiring high-quality communication transmission. Existing optical cable support devices require repeated adjustments to the base's installation angle to ensure the rollers and other components are at the correct angle. Once the base is fixed, the direction of the rollers and other components cannot be adjusted, requiring the base to be removed for later adjustment, which is inconvenient. Furthermore, when other equipment is near the base, it is difficult to guarantee sufficient installation space for the base at the correct angle, posing significant installation challenges. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing an optical cable support device.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an optical cable support device, including a base, a main rod on one side of the base, a connecting sleeve rotatably connected to the outer end of the main rod, a support rod fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting sleeve, a roller assembly at the outer end of the support rod, a limiting structure in the middle of the main rod, and a spring sleeved on its outer side, the inner end of the spring being limited by the limiting structure, and its outer end being connected to a pressure block, the outer end of the pressure block abutting against the connecting sleeve, the outer end of the connecting sleeve abutting against a limiting plate sleeved on the outer side of the main rod, and a baffle on the outer side of the limiting plate, the baffle being fixed to the outer end of the main rod.

[0005] Furthermore, the roller assembly includes a lower roller frame and an upper roller frame connected to the lower roller frame. The lower roller and the upper roller are rotatably connected to the lower roller frame and the upper roller frame, respectively. The lower roller and the upper roller are arranged side by side to form a through hole for the optical cable to pass through.

[0006] Furthermore, the lower wheel frame is hinged to one end of the upper wheel frame, and a torsion spring is provided between the lower wheel frame and the upper wheel frame.

[0007] Furthermore, the inner end of the pressure block extends inward to form a protective sleeve, which is spaced out on the outside of the spring.

[0008] Furthermore, the limiting plate is a rubber plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the limiting plate and the connecting sleeve are provided with limiting teeth on opposite sides.

[0010] Furthermore, the outer end of the main rod is provided with a threaded hole, and the baffle is fixedly connected to the main rod by a bolt threaded into the threaded hole.

[0011] Furthermore, the outer end of the main rod is provided with a limiting groove, and the limiting plate is provided with a limiting protrusion that cooperates with the limiting groove.

[0012] Beneficial effects: This utility model rotatably mounts the connecting sleeve on the main rod, and sets a spring and a limiting plate on the main rod. The elastic force generated by the spring presses the connecting sleeve against the limiting plate. The friction between the connecting sleeve and the limiting plate or the limiting structure keeps the roller assembly in any or multiple angular positions. The angle position of the roller assembly can be adjusted without removing the base during use. The roller assembly adopts a hinge at one end and a torsion spring to realize the detachable connection between the lower wheel frame and the upper wheel frame. When supported, it can prevent the roller from sliding out of the through hole and facilitates the insertion or removal of the optical cable from the through hole. Attached Figure Description

[0013] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the optical cable support device according to an embodiment of the present invention;

[0014] Figure 2 This is a partial exploded structural diagram of the optical cable support device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0015] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. These embodiments are implemented under the premise of the technical solution of the present invention. It should be understood that these embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0016] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, this embodiment of the utility model provides an optical cable support device, including a base 1, which is preferably T-shaped. The base 1 has multiple fixing holes 2 for fixing to the installation position with bolts. A main rod 3 is provided on one side of the base 1. To improve stability, a support beam 4 is provided between the main rod 3 and the base 1 at the middle. A connecting sleeve 5 is rotatably connected to the outer end of the main rod 3. A support rod 6 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the connecting sleeve 5, and a roller assembly 7 is provided at the outer end of the support rod 6. A limiting structure is provided at the middle of the main rod 3. This limiting structure can be a limiting step, but is not limited to this. A spring 8 is sleeved on the outer side of the main rod 3. The inner end of the spring 8 is limited by the limiting structure, and the outer end of the spring 8 is connected to a pressure block 9. The outer end of the pressure block 9 abuts against the connecting sleeve 5. A limiting plate 10 is also sleeved on the outer end of the main rod 3. The outer end of the connecting sleeve 5 abuts against the limiting plate 10. A baffle 11 is provided on the outer side of the limiting plate 10 and is fixed to the outer end of the main rod 3. A threaded hole 31 can be provided at the outer end of the main rod 3, and the baffle 11 is fixedly connected to the main rod 3 by a bolt 32 threadedly connected in the threaded hole 31.

[0017] When the spring 8 is compressed, the baffle 11 limits the outer end of the limiting plate 10. Under the action of the spring 8, the connecting sleeve 5 acts on the limiting plate 10 with a certain pressure. By selecting a spring 8 of appropriate specifications and combining the materials of the connecting sleeve 5 and the limiting plate 10 to increase friction or by combining the structure between the connecting sleeve 5 and the limiting plate 10 for limiting, it can be ensured that the roller assembly 7 on the connecting sleeve 5 can be maintained at any or multiple angle positions within a 360° range under normal conditions. For example, the limiting plate 10 can be made of rubber. To further improve the friction between the connecting sleeve 5 and the limiting plate 10, a layer of rubber pad can also be bonded to the outer end of the connecting sleeve 5. Utilizing the high friction of rubber, even if the pressure applied by the spring 8 is not very large, it can be ensured that the roller assembly 7 on the connecting sleeve 5 can be maintained at any angle position under normal conditions. Alternatively, limiting teeth can be provided on the opposite side of the limiting plate 10 and the connecting sleeve 5. The limiting teeth can be engaged to achieve limiting, so that the roller assembly 7 on the connecting sleeve 5 can be maintained at multiple angle positions under normal conditions. When it is necessary to adjust the angle position of the roller assembly 7 on the connecting sleeve 5, the connecting sleeve 5 is pushed inward by the support rod 6, which further compresses the spring 8. After the connecting sleeve 5 disengages from the limiting plate 10, the connecting sleeve 5 can be rotated to adjust the angle position of the roller assembly 7. In order to prevent the limiting plate 10 from rotating relative to the main rod 3, it is preferable to provide a limiting groove 33 at the outer end of the main rod 3. The limiting plate 10 is provided with a limiting protrusion 101 that cooperates with the limiting groove 33. The limiting protrusion 101 is set in the limiting groove 33 to prevent the limiting plate 10 from rotating relative to the main rod 3.

[0018] The roller assembly 7 of this utility model embodiment includes a lower roller frame 71 and an upper roller frame 72 connected to the lower roller frame 71. A lower roller 73 and an upper roller 74 are rotatably connected to the lower roller frame 71 and the upper roller frame 72, respectively. The lower roller 73 and the upper roller 74 are arranged side by side to form a through hole 75 for the optical cable to pass through. For ease of construction, it is preferable to hinge one end of the lower roller frame 71 and the upper roller frame 72. A torsion spring 76 is also provided between the lower roller frame 71 and the upper roller frame 72. Under the action of the torsion spring 76, the hinged ends of the lower roller frame 71 and the upper roller frame 72 can be kept in contact. When it is necessary to insert or remove the optical cable into the through hole 75, the opposing ends of the lower roller frame 71 and the upper roller frame 72 can be separated by hand to overcome the elastic force of the torsion spring.

[0019] It is also preferable to extend the outer periphery of the inner end of the pressure block 9 inward to form a protective sleeve 91, and the protective sleeve 91 is spaced out on the outside of the spring 8 to play a protective role.

[0020] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, other parts not specifically described are existing technology or common knowledge. Several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
