[0044] As described in the background section, with the increasing integration of electronic devices, electrical connectors, as crucial components for circuit connections, are widely used in automotive, communications, and industrial control fields. Electrical connectors are primarily used to achieve electrical connections and signal transmission between devices. They achieve circuit continuity through metal conductive terminals, ensure electrical isolation through insulating housings, and guarantee connection reliability through locking mechanisms.
[0045] In related technologies, to keep the wire harness neat and orderly and reduce its movement, wire clips are usually installed on the connector. Wire clips generally use a cable tie structure, which uses buckles or straps to fix the wire harness to the connector housing to prevent the wire harness from shifting or loosening due to vibration or external force.
[0046] However, existing cable clips use cable ties to secure the wire harness, which results in poor securing and affects the reliability of the connection.
[0047] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a cable clamp structure and connector. The cable clamp structure includes a first fixing member with at least one first half-groove; a second fixing member opposite to the first fixing member, with at least one second half-groove, each second half-groove corresponding to one of the first half-grooves. When the first and second fixing members are engaged, the first and second half-grooves form a cable passage hole for accommodating a cable; and at least one first elastic member disposed within the cable passage hole, abutting against the cable. Thus, the cable passage hole ensures the cable's routing, and the first elastic member provides continuous clamping force to the cable, ensuring the stability of the cable's fixation.
[0048] The technical solution of this application and how the technical solution of this application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0049] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the connector provided in this application. Figure 2 for Figure 1 Exploded view of the centerline card structure. Figure 3 for Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the first fixing component Figure 1 , Figure 4 for Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the first fixing component Figure 2 .
[0050] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In a first aspect, this embodiment provides a cable clip structure, including a first fixing member 100, on which at least one first half-groove 110 is provided; a second fixing member 200, which is disposed opposite to the first fixing member 100, on which at least one second half-groove 210 is provided, each second half-groove 210 corresponding to each first half-groove 110, when the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 are engaged with each other, the first half-groove 110 and the second half-groove 210 surround to form a wire passage hole, which is used to accommodate a cable 10; and at least one first elastic member 300, which is disposed in the wire passage hole and is used to abut against the cable 10.
[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 are detachably connected. During actual installation, the operator can first place the cable 10 to be fixed in the first half-groove 110, and then align the second fixing member 200 with the installation position of the first fixing member 100 and mate the second fixing member 200 with the first fixing member 100. At this time, the cable 10 is located in the cable hole, and the installation of the cable clip structure is completed.
[0052] By employing a detachable connection method where the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 engage with each other, installation is achieved without having to pull the cable 10 out from its end and then thread it through the cable hole, greatly improving installation efficiency and convenience. Furthermore, during disassembly, the cable clip structure can be removed separately without affecting the cable 10.
[0053] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 can be detachably connected by a structure such as a buckle or screw. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions on the specific connection form between the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200, and the operator can make an adaptive choice according to actual needs.
[0054] In addition, the cable clamp structure provided in this embodiment also includes a first elastic element 300, which is disposed in the cable hole to provide clamping force for the cable 10 and ensure the stability of the cable 10.
[0055] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first elastic element 300 is an arc-shaped spring sheet structure. The two ends of the arc-shaped spring sheet abut against the inner wall of the first half-groove 110 or the second half-groove 210. When the cable 10 is in the cable hole, the protrusion of the spring sheet abuts against the surface of the cable 10 and generates elastic deformation, thereby forming a continuous clamping force on the cable 10.
[0056] Meanwhile, the first elastic element 300 enables the wire clamp structure provided in this embodiment to adapt to cables 10 with different diameters. When the diameter of the cable 10 is large, the deformation of the spring increases, and the clamping force also increases accordingly; conversely, when the diameter of the cable 10 is small, the deformation of the spring decreases, and the clamping force decreases accordingly.
[0057] Specifically, in this embodiment, there can be multiple wire-passing holes, enabling the fixing of multiple cables 10. Correspondingly, there are multiple first elastic elements 300, with one first elastic element 300 provided in each first half-groove 110 and each second half-groove 210. When the first half-groove 110 and the second half-groove 210 form a wire-passing hole, the two first elastic elements 300 can apply pressure to the cable 10 from opposite directions, thereby forming a balanced clamping force distribution and ensuring that the cable 10 is centered in the wire-passing hole. Furthermore, since each first elastic element 300 operates independently, even if one first elastic element 300 fails, the other first elastic element 300 can still provide clamping force for the cable 10, thus improving the redundancy and reliability of the cable clamp structure.
[0058] In an optional embodiment, the first elastic member 300 has a first insertion portion 310, and at least one of the first half-groove 110 and the second half-groove 210 includes a first insertion groove 111, with the first insertion portion 310 disposed within the first insertion groove 111.
[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first elastic member 300 has a first insertion part 310 and the first half-groove 110 has a first insertion slot 111. By inserting the first insertion part 310 into the first insertion slot 111, the first elastic member 300 is installed, thereby achieving the fixation and installation of the first elastic member 300 without the need for additional fasteners.
[0060] When there are two first elastic elements 300 in each wire hole, the first half-groove 110 and the second half-groove 210 are each provided with a first insertion groove 111, which facilitates the installation of the first elastic element 300.
[0061] In addition, it should be noted that in order to prevent the first elastic member 300 from coming out of the first insertion groove 111, the bottom of the first insertion groove 111 in this embodiment is also provided with an anti-retraction protrusion, so that the bottom of the first elastic member 300 abuts against the anti-retraction protrusion, thereby preventing the first elastic member 300 from accidentally coming out.
[0062] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In another optional embodiment, when installing the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200, the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 can be installed by sliding up and down. At this time, the first elastic member 300 will be subjected to contact friction force from the cable 10. This contact friction force can effectively prevent the first elastic member 300 from falling off, so there is no need to set anti-retraction protrusions, and it can also ensure that the first elastic member 300 will not slide vertically.
[0063] Specifically, in this embodiment, the number of first plug-in portions 310 is one, and the overall structure of the first elastic member 300 forms a T-shaped structure. In other embodiments, the number of first plug-in portions 310 can also be two or more. When there are two first plug-in portions 310, the two first plug-in portions 310 are respectively disposed at both ends of the first elastic member 300, presenting an "I" shaped structure. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0064] In an optional embodiment, the first elastic member 300 has an abutment portion 320, and at least one of the first half-groove 110 and the second half-groove 210 further includes an engagement groove 112, with the abutment portion 320 disposed within the engagement groove 112.
[0065] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first elastic member 300 has an abutment portion 320 located in the engagement groove 112 to restrict the position of the first elastic member 300 and prevent the first elastic member 300 from coming out of the wire hole, which would cause the clamping to fail.
[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, since the first elastic element 300 is an arc-shaped spring sheet, its vertical length will change when it deforms. In order to avoid interference between the setting of the locking groove 112 and the elastic deformation of the first elastic element 300, the length of the locking groove 112 in this embodiment is greater than the length of the abutment portion 320, thereby reserving sufficient space for the deformation of the first elastic element 300.
[0067] In an optional embodiment, the wire clip structure further includes a second elastic member 400. At least one of the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 has a receiving groove 120. The second elastic member 400 is disposed in the receiving groove 120 and is used to abut against the connector body 20.
[0068] Specifically, in this embodiment, both the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 are provided with receiving grooves 120, and there are two second elastic members 400. The two second elastic members 400 are respectively disposed in the two receiving grooves 120. When the cable 10 is located in the cable hole, the two second elastic members 400 can respectively abut against the two sides of the connector body 20, thereby applying a balanced clamping force to the connector body 20.
[0069] During actual operation, when the connector body 20 is clamped, the two second elastic elements 400 simultaneously undergo compressive deformation. This ensures that the clamping force is evenly distributed on both sides of the connector body 20, guaranteeing reliable fixation and allowing the connector body 20 to be positioned at the center of the wire clip. Simultaneously, the deformation of the second elastic elements 400 automatically adjusts with changes in connector size, ensuring appropriate clamping force for connectors of different specifications.
[0070] Furthermore, it should be noted that in other embodiments, the receiving groove 120 may be formed only on the first fixing member 100 or the second fixing member 200, so that the second elastic member 400 is placed in the receiving groove 120, thereby reducing production costs. Correspondingly, multiple receiving grooves 120 may also be formed on the first fixing member 100 or the second fixing member 200, so that multiple second elastic members 400 are respectively placed in multiple receiving grooves 120, thereby improving the stability of fixation. This embodiment does not impose any limitations on this.
[0071] In an optional embodiment, the second elastic member 400 has a second insertion portion 410, and the receiving groove 120 includes a second insertion groove 121, with the second insertion portion 410 disposed within the second insertion groove 121.
[0072] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second elastic member 400 has a second insertion portion 410, and the receiving groove 120 has a second insertion groove 121. By inserting the second insertion portion 410 into the second insertion groove 121, the second elastic member 400 is installed, thereby achieving the fixation and installation of the second elastic member 400 without the need for additional fasteners.
[0073] In addition, it should be noted that in order to prevent the second elastic member 400 from coming out of the second insertion groove 121, the bottom of the second insertion groove 121 in this embodiment is also provided with an anti-retraction protrusion, so that the bottom of the second elastic member 400 abuts against the anti-retraction protrusion, thereby preventing the second elastic member 400 from accidentally coming out.
[0074] In another optional embodiment, when installing the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200, the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 can be installed by sliding up and down. At this time, the second elastic member 400 will be subjected to contact friction force from the connector body 20. This contact friction force can effectively prevent the second elastic member 400 from falling off, so there is no need to set anti-retraction protrusion, and it can also ensure that the second elastic member 400 will not slide vertically.
[0075] During actual assembly, the operator can first align the second insertion portion 410 of the second elastic member 400 with the entrance of the second insertion slot 121 of the receiving groove 120, and then apply pushing force by hand or special tool to make the second insertion portion 410 fully enter the second insertion slot 121. After installation, the main body of the second elastic member 400 will naturally protrude from the receiving groove 120, forming a predetermined contact height, thus achieving quick installation of the second elastic member 400 without the need for additional fasteners.
[0076] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In an optional embodiment, a limiting member 130 is provided on one of the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200, and a limiting groove 220 is provided on the other. The limiting member 130 and the limiting groove 220 are matched and configured. When the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 are engaged with each other, the limiting member 130 is engaged in the limiting groove 220.
[0077] Specifically, in this embodiment, a limiting member 130 is provided on the side of the first fixing member 100 facing the second fixing member 200, and a limiting groove 220 is provided on the side of the second fixing member 200 facing the first fixing member 100. When the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 are engaged with each other, the limiting member 130 is engaged in the limiting groove 220.
[0078] Specifically, in this embodiment, the limiting member 130 has a T-shaped structure. During installation, the operator first aligns the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 vertically, so that the T-shaped limiting member 130 on the first fixing member 100 is directly opposite the T-shaped limiting groove 220 on the second fixing member 200. Then, pressure is applied in the vertical direction, causing the limiting member 130 to gradually slide into the limiting groove 220, thereby forming a rigid constraint in the horizontal direction and effectively preventing relative movement of the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 in the horizontal direction.
[0079] By using the limiting component 130 and the limiting groove 220, the operator can directly position the first fixing component 100 and the second fixing component 200 during installation, thereby quickly and accurately achieving the engagement of the first fixing component 100 and the second fixing component 200, improving installation efficiency and reducing installation difficulty.
[0080] In other embodiments, the limiting member 130 may also be of other structures, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0081] Correspondingly, in other embodiments, the limiting member 130 can also be provided on the second fixing member 200, and the limiting groove 220 is provided on the first fixing member 100. The number of limiting grooves 220 and limiting members 130 can also be adaptively selected according to actual needs.
[0082] In another optional embodiment, both the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 are provided with limiting members 130 and limiting grooves 220, and the limiting members 130 on the first fixing member 100 and the limiting grooves 220 on the second fixing member 200 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence, forming a bidirectional limiting fit, making the connection more stable and reliable.
[0083] In an optional embodiment, the limiting member 130 is provided with a first engaging portion 131, and the limiting groove 220 is correspondingly provided with a first engaging groove 221. When the limiting member 130 is engaged in the limiting groove 220, the first engaging portion 131 is engaged in the first engaging groove 221.
[0084] Specifically, in this embodiment, the limiting member 130 is provided with a first engaging portion 131, and a matching first engaging groove 221 is opened at a corresponding position on the inner wall of the limiting groove 220. When the limiting member 130 is vertically inserted into the limiting groove 220, the first engaging portion 131 will slide into the first engaging groove 221. Thus, in the vertical direction, the cooperation between the first engaging portion 131 and the first engaging groove 221 forms a mechanical stop, effectively preventing the limiting member 130 from accidentally coming out. Therefore, the connection between the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 can be achieved without setting an additional locking structure. At the same time, when disassembly is required, only appropriate force needs to be applied to pull the limiting member 130 vertically out, so that the first engaging portion 131 disengages from the first engaging groove 221.
[0085] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first engaging portion 131 is a hemispherical protrusion structure. When the limiting member 130 is inserted into the limiting groove 220, the hemispherical protrusion structure will engage within the first engaging groove 221. By designing the hemispherical protrusion structure, the contact between the first engaging portion 131 and the first engaging groove 221 is point contact or small-area contact. Compared to an angular structure, this significantly reduces local contact stress, thereby protecting the first engaging portion 131 and the limiting groove 220 from wear and extending their service life.
[0086] It should be noted that the first snap-fit part 131 can be made of a material with a certain elastic deformation capability, or it can be configured to form a structure with an elastic element. When the limiting member 130 is inserted into the limiting groove 220, the first snap-fit part 131 will first contact the inner wall of the limiting groove 220 and generate elastic deformation. As the insertion depth increases, when the first snap-fit part 131 moves to the position of the first snap-fit groove 221, it will automatically snap into the first snap-fit groove 221 by means of its elastic restoring force.
[0087] Furthermore, in this embodiment, there can be multiple first snap-fit portions 131, and correspondingly, there can be multiple first snap-fit slots 221, each corresponding to one of the first snap-fit portions 131, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the first fastener 100 and the second fastener 200. The specific positions of the first snap-fit portions 131 and the first snap-fit slots 221 can be adaptively selected according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0088] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In an optional embodiment, at least one of the first fastener 100 and the second fastener 200 is provided with a matching connector 140 and a connecting groove 150, wherein the connector 140 can be inserted into the connecting groove 150 to connect two adjacent wire clip structures.
[0089] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first fixing member 100 is provided with a connector 140 and a connecting groove 150, wherein the connector 140 and the connecting groove 150 are matched. When multiple wire clip structures need to be connected side by side, the connector 140 on the first fixing member 100 is aligned with the connecting groove 150 on the first fixing member 100 in the adjacent wire clip structure, and the connection is completed by sliding it in vertically. Thus, the operator can freely combine them according to the wiring requirements on site, which improves the flexibility of installation.
[0090] In other embodiments, the connector 140 and the connecting groove 150 may also be provided on the second fixing member 200, or the connector 140 and the connecting groove 150 may be provided on both the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0091] Specifically, when the connector 140 and the connecting groove 150 are disposed on the second fixing member 200, when connecting adjacent wire clip structures, simply align the connector 140 on the second fixing member 200 with the connecting groove 150 on the second fixing member 200 in the adjacent wire clip structure, and slide it in vertically to complete the connection.
[0092] When both the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 are provided with a connector 140 and a connecting groove 150, when connecting adjacent wire clip structures, it is necessary to insert the connector 140 on the first fixing member 100 into the connecting groove 150 on the other first fixing member 100, and insert the connector 140 on the second fixing member 200 into the connecting groove 150 on the other second fixing member 200, thereby further enhancing the stability of the connection between the two adjacent wire clip structures.
[0093] Specifically, in this embodiment, the connector 140 can also adopt a T-shaped structure or an L-shaped structure to ensure the stability of the horizontal connection between two adjacent wire clip structures. This embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0094] Furthermore, the connector 140 and the connecting slot 150 enable two adjacent wire clip structures to be quickly and accurately aligned during installation, thereby significantly improving installation efficiency.
[0095] In an optional embodiment, the connector 140 has a second snap-fit portion 141, and a corresponding second snap-fit groove 151 is provided on the connecting groove 150. When the connector 140 is inserted into the connecting groove 150, the second snap-fit portion 141 snaps into the second snap-fit groove 151.
[0096] Specifically, in this embodiment, the connector 140 is provided with a second latching portion 141, and a matching second latching groove 151 is opened at a corresponding position on the inner wall of the connecting groove 150. When the connector 140 is vertically inserted into the connecting groove 150, the second latching portion 141 will slide into the second latching groove 151. Thus, in the vertical direction, the cooperation between the second latching portion 141 and the second latching groove 151 forms a mechanical stop, effectively preventing the connector 140 from accidentally coming out. Therefore, no additional locking structure is required to connect two adjacent wire clip structures. At the same time, when disassembly is required, only appropriate force needs to be applied to pull the connector 140 vertically out, so that the second latching portion 141 disengages from the second latching groove 151.
[0097] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second locking portion 141 is a hemispherical protrusion structure. When the connector 140 is inserted into the connecting groove 150, the hemispherical protrusion structure will lock into the second locking groove 151. By setting the hemispherical protrusion structure, the contact between the second locking portion 141 and the second locking groove 151 is a point contact or a small area contact. Compared with the angular structure, it can significantly reduce the local contact stress, thereby protecting the second locking portion 141 and the connecting groove 150 from wear and extending their service life.
[0098] It should be noted that the second snap-fit part 141 can be made of a material with a certain elastic deformation capability, or it can be configured to form a structure with an elastic element. When the connector 140 is inserted into the connecting groove 150, the second snap-fit part 141 will first contact the inner wall of the connecting groove 150 and generate elastic deformation. As the insertion depth increases, when the second snap-fit part 141 moves to the position of the second snap-fit groove 151, it will automatically snap into the second snap-fit groove 151 by means of its elastic restoring force.
[0099] Furthermore, in this embodiment, there can be multiple second snap-fit portions 141, and correspondingly, there can be multiple second snap-fit slots 151, each corresponding to one of the second snap-fit portions 141. This improves the stability of the connection between the connector 140 and the connecting slot 150, thereby enhancing the connection stability between two adjacent wire clip structures. The specific positions of the second snap-fit portions 141 and the second snap-fit slots 151 can be adaptively selected according to actual needs; this embodiment does not impose any limitations on this.
[0100] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 Secondly, this embodiment provides a connector, including a connector body 20, a cable 10, and a wire clip structure as described in any of the first aspects. The cable 10 is plugged into the connector body 20 and extends into the wire passage hole of the wire clip structure.
[0101] The line card structure has been described in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.
[0102] The connector provided in this embodiment includes a connector body 20, a cable 10, and a wire clamp structure as described in any of the first aspects. The cable 10 is inserted into the connector body 20 and extends into the wire passage hole of the wire clamp structure. The wire clamp structure includes a first fixing member 100, which has at least one first half-groove 110; a second fixing member 200, which is opposite to the first fixing member 100 and has at least one second half-groove 210. Each second half-groove 210 corresponds to each first half-groove 110. When the first fixing member 100 and the second fixing member 200 are engaged, the first half-groove 110 and the second half-groove 210 form a wire passage hole for accommodating the cable 10; and at least one first elastic member 300, which is disposed within the wire passage hole and abuts against the cable 10. Thus, the cable 10 is guided by the cable hole, and the first elastic element 300 provides a continuous clamping force to the cable 10, ensuring the stability of the cable 10.
