Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of network equipment technology, and more specifically, it relates to a network management device that facilitates the management of wire harnesses. Background Technology

[0002] Network connectivity has become an indispensable part of daily life, especially with the router playing a central role in providing network management services. It not only needs to ensure the stability of the network signal, but also requires the connected network cable to transmit data efficiently and stably.

[0003] However, when existing network cables are plugged into router ports, since routers are usually placed horizontally, the network cables often become excessively bent at the connection point, especially near the plug. This can easily lead to physical damage to the network cable. In an excessively bent state, the network cable not only increases the risk of line failure, but may eventually break, causing network interruption and affecting normal work and life. To solve this problem, existing technologies provide methods such as through holes or wrapping with tape to position and fix the network cable. These solutions are intended to avoid excessive bending of the network cable, but they also have some shortcomings.

[0004] While the through-hole and wrapping design can provide some support for the above problems, it has revealed its limitations in practical applications. First, the wrapping is prone to deformation under external force, especially when the external pressure is large. The wrapping may deform or lose its fixing effect, thus failing to effectively prevent the network cable from bending.

[0005] Moreover, under external pressure, the wrapping method cannot guarantee the stability of the network cable, and may even cause the network cable to bend more severely. Secondly, although the through hole design can fix the network cable to a certain extent, the transitional edge structure inside and outside the hole will make the network cable easy to bend or be damaged when subjected to external pressure. Because the edges of the transition part are relatively sharp, they can easily cause physical damage to the network cable, affecting the long-term service life of the network cable. Utility Model Content

[0006] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0007] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a network management device that facilitates wire harness management, so as to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] (II) Technical Solution

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a network management device for easy cable management, comprising a router body, wherein the router body has a network cable interface, and the network cable interface is provided with multiple sets, each with a cable management mechanism on its outer side. The cable management mechanism includes a cable sleeve, a sliding rod, a slider, a connecting plate, a telescopic spring, a cable management plate, a pressing mechanism, and a positioning mechanism. The cable sleeve is fixed to the outer wall of the router body. Multiple sets of sliding rods are distributed inside the cable sleeve. The slider slides on the outer wall of the multiple sets of sliding rods. The connecting plate is fixed inside the multiple sets of sliders. Multiple sets of telescopic springs are distributed inside the multiple sets of connecting plates. Multiple sets of cable management plates are installed on the top of the multiple sets of telescopic springs. The pressing mechanism includes a first sliding groove, a sliding sleeve, and a push sleeve. Multiple sets of first sliding grooves are distributed on the outer wall of the cable sleeve. The sliding sleeve slides within the multiple sets of first sliding grooves. The push sleeve is fixed inside the sliding sleeve and abuts against the bottom surface of the multiple sets of connecting plates.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the positioning mechanism includes a positioning block, a positioning groove, a limiting sleeve and a push spring. The positioning block is provided with multiple sets that slide on the outer wall of the sliding sleeve, the positioning groove is provided with multiple sets that are distributed on the outer side of the wire harness sleeve, the limiting sleeve slides on the outer wall of the wire harness sleeve, and the push spring is provided with multiple sets that are installed on the bottom surface of the limiting sleeve and fixedly connected to the wire harness sleeve.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that multiple sets of sliding rods are inclinedly arranged inside the cable bundle sleeve, and multiple sets of sliding rods are provided with limiting strips on their outer walls. The multiple sets of limiting strips are slidably connected to multiple sets of sliders. This design improves the stability of the wire bundle inside the cable bundle sleeve by using the inclined sliding rods and the limiting strips slidably connected to the sliders, so that the sliders can be adjusted more precisely and the wire bundles can be prevented from becoming loose or unstable due to external forces.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that each of the top ends of the multiple sets of positioning blocks is connected to a reset spring, and the bottom ends of the multiple sets of reset springs are fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding sleeve. The reset springs can ensure that the positioning blocks can automatically return to their original positions when the clamping is released, stabilize the fixing and releasing of the network cable, and reduce the problem of insecure clamping or loosening caused by improper operation or external force.

[0013] The present invention is further provided that a return spring is connected between the top surface of the multiple sets of connecting plates and the inner side of the cable tie sleeve. The setting of the return spring enables the connecting plate to automatically rebound after the network cable clamping operation is completed, ensuring a tight fit between the cable tie sleeve and the connecting plate and reducing loosening due to frequent use or long-term pressure.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that a second sliding groove is provided on the outer wall of the cable bundle sleeve, and a limiting plate is fixedly provided at both ends of the limiting sleeve. The second sliding groove is provided in multiple sets and is slidably connected to multiple sets of limiting plates respectively. The design of the second sliding groove and the limiting plate provides more precise restriction and positioning of the network cable, ensuring that the network cable maintains the correct direction and stability inside the cable bundle sleeve, and avoiding damage caused by excessive bending or misalignment.

[0015] The present invention is further configured such that a first guide rod is provided inside the cable bundle sleeve, and multiple sets of the first guide rod are provided, all of which are slidably connected to the push sleeve. A second guide rod is provided inside the cable bundle sleeve, and multiple sets of the second guide rod are provided, each of which is slidably connected to multiple sets of limiting plates. The design of the first and second guide rods guides the movement of the push sleeve and the limiting plates, making the structure inside the cable bundle sleeve more stable. The cable can maintain a suitable clamping state under different angles and pressures, avoiding clamping failure caused by sliding imbalance.

[0016] The present invention is further provided in that soft pads are fixedly provided on the inner side of each of the multiple sets of cable trays. The soft pads can effectively alleviate the friction between the network cable and the cable tray, reduce the wear on the surface of the network cable, thereby extending the service life of the network cable and ensuring that the network cable is not easily damaged during the clamping process.

[0017] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0018] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a network management device that facilitates wire harness management, and has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. The cable management sleeve is fixed to the outer wall of the router body. Multiple sets of sliding rods and sliders are installed inside, allowing the cable management sleeve to be flexibly adjusted according to the specific condition of the network cable, thus preventing damage due to excessive bending. The sliders, through sliding cooperation with the sliding rods, allow the cable management plate to tightly clamp the outer wall of the network cable, ensuring the stability of the network cable in different usage scenarios. Combined with the action of the telescopic spring, the cable management mechanism can automatically adapt to different diameters or bending angles of the network cable, not only improving the fixing effect of the network cable but also ensuring the safety of the network cable under no external force and its long-term stability.

[0020] 2. When the network cable is inserted into the network cable interface, the push-limit sleeve compresses the push spring, thereby releasing the obstruction of the limit block. Then, the sliding sleeve slides in the first sliding groove, driving the push sleeve to slide along the guide rod, further pushing the connecting plate and cable tie plate to tightly clamp the outer wall of the network cable. During this process, the clamping mechanism gradually clamps the network cable through the action of the push sleeve, ensuring that the network cable is firmly fixed at the router interface and will not cause signal interruption due to deformation caused by external force. At the same time, the cooperation of the return spring and the telescopic spring also ensures the stable operation of each component while clamping the network cable, reducing wear or loosening caused by frequent use.

[0021] 3. The positioning block, in cooperation with the positioning groove, enables the device to accurately lock or release the clamping state of the network cable. Especially when the network cable needs to be released, the positioning block can smoothly disengage from the positioning groove through the elastic action of the return spring, releasing the positioning of the sliding sleeve, allowing the cable tray to be loosened, making it easy to replace or adjust the network cable. This process, through the precise control of the push spring and the limit sleeve, ensures the speed and stability of the clamping and releasing of the network cable, avoiding damage caused by excessive external force or improper use in traditional solutions, and greatly improving the convenience and durability of the equipment.

[0031] Please see Figures 1-5 A network management device for easy cable management includes a router body 1, on which a network cable interface 2 is provided. The network cable interface 2 is provided with multiple sets, and each set has a cable management mechanism on its outer side. The cable management mechanism includes a cable sleeve 3, a sliding rod 4, a slider 5, a connecting plate 6, a telescopic spring 7, a cable management plate 8, a clamping mechanism, and a positioning mechanism. The cable sleeve 3 is fixed to the outer wall of the router body 1. Multiple sets of sliding rods 4 are distributed inside the cable sleeve 3. The slider 5 slides on the outer wall of the multiple sets of sliding rods 4. The connecting plate 6 is fixed inside the multiple sets of sliders 5.

The sliding sleeve 9 slides in the multiple sets of first sliding grooves 40. The push sleeve 10 is fixed inside the sliding sleeve 9 and abuts against the bottom surface of the multiple sets of connecting plates 6.

[0032] The positioning mechanism includes a positioning block 11, a positioning groove 12, a limiting sleeve 13, and a push spring 14. The positioning block 11 is provided with multiple sets that slide on the outer wall of the sliding sleeve 9.

The limiting sleeve 13 slides on the outer wall of the wire harness sleeve 3. The push spring 14 is provided with multiple sets that are installed on the bottom surface of the limiting sleeve 13 and fixedly connected to the wire harness sleeve 3.

[0033] Multiple sets of sliding rods 4 are inclinedly arranged inside the cable bundle sleeve 3, and multiple sets of sliding rods 4 are provided with limiting strips 15 on their outer walls. The multiple sets of limiting strips 15 are slidably connected to multiple sets of sliders 5. This design, through the inclined sliding rods 4 and the sliders 5 that cooperate with the limiting strips 15, makes the internal structure of the cable bundle sleeve 3 more stable, effectively controls the position of the network cable, avoids the network cable from becoming loose or unstable due to external forces, and ensures that the network cable slides smoothly and steadily inside the cable bundle sleeve 3.

[0034] Each of the multiple positioning blocks 11 has a reset spring 16 connected to its top end, and the bottom of each of the multiple reset springs 16 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the sliding sleeve 9. The reset spring 16 enables the positioning block 11 to automatically return to its original position when the clamping is released, ensuring that the clamping state of the network cable can be quickly and stably restored, while avoiding insecure clamping or loosening due to excessive external force or improper operation.

[0035] Each of the multiple connecting plates 6 has a return spring 17 connected between its top surface and the inner side of the cable tie sleeve 3. The function of the return spring 17 is to ensure that the connecting plate 6 can automatically spring back after the network cable clamping operation is completed, so as to maintain a tight fit between the cable tie sleeve 3 and the connecting plate 6 and effectively reduce loosening or instability due to long-term use or external force.

[0036] The outer wall of the cable bundle sleeve 3 is provided with a second sliding groove 18, and the two ends of the limiting sleeve 13 are fixed with limiting plates 19. The second sliding groove 18 is provided with multiple sets and is slidably connected to multiple sets of limiting plates 19 respectively. The design of the second sliding groove 18 and the limiting plates 19 provides precise network cable restriction and positioning functions, ensuring that the network cable is stably arranged in the cable bundle sleeve 3 and avoiding excessive bending or misalignment, thus ensuring the reliability of the network cable in various working environments.

[0037] The cable tie sleeve 3 is provided with a first guide rod 20. Multiple sets of the first guide rod 20 are provided, and each set is slidably connected to the push sleeve 10. The cable tie sleeve 3 is provided with a second guide rod 21. Multiple sets of the second guide rod 21 are provided, and each set is slidably connected to multiple sets of limiting plates 19.

[0038] Multiple cable trays 8 are each fixed with a soft pad 22 on the inner side. The soft pad 22 can effectively reduce the friction between the cable tray 8 and the network cable, relieve the pressure that may be generated, prevent damage or wear to the surface of the network cable, extend the service life of the network cable, and ensure that the network cable is not damaged unnecessarily during the clamping process.

[0039] In this embodiment, after the network cable plug is inserted into the network cable socket, the network cable is placed inside multiple sets of cable clips. The limiting sleeve 13 is pushed to compress multiple sets of push springs 14, causing the limiting sleeve 13 to release its contact with the multiple sets of limiting blocks. Multiple sets of reset springs 16 then pull the positioning block 11 to disengage it from the positioning groove 12, releasing the positioning of the sliding sleeve 9. The sliding sleeve 9 then slides along the groove, causing the push sleeve 10 to slide along multiple sets of first guide rods 20. The push sleeve 10 pushes multiple sets of connecting plates 6, causing them to slide along the slide rod 4 via the slider 5. Multiple sets of cable trays 8 clamp the outer wall of the network cable and simultaneously compress multiple sets of return springs 17. Multiple sets of soft pads 22 abut against the outer wall of the network cable and simultaneously compress multiple sets of telescopic springs 7. After the multiple sets of telescopic springs 7 are compressed, multiple sets of push springs 14 push the limiting sleeve 13 to slide along the second guide rod 21 through the limiting plate 19. Then, the limiting sleeve 13 abuts against the top of multiple sets of positioning blocks 11 so that its bottom end is engaged in the positioning groove 12. At the same time, multiple sets of reset springs 16 are compressed to position the sliding sleeve 9, thus completing the clamping of the network cable.

[0040] More specifically, when it is necessary to release the clamp on the network cable, the push limit sleeve 13 is pushed to compress multiple sets of push springs 14, so that the limit sleeve 13 releases its contact with multiple sets of limit blocks. At the same time, multiple sets of limit plates 19 slide along the second guide rod 21 and the second slide groove 18 respectively. Multiple sets of reset springs 16 pull the positioning block 11 to disengage it from the positioning groove 12, releasing the positioning of the slide sleeve 9. Multiple sets of return springs 17 reset and push the connecting block to slide along the slide rod 4 through the slider 5, thereby driving multiple sets of cable trays 8 to release the clamp on the outer wall of the network cable.

[0041] In summary, during the use or operation of the overall equipment: after the network cable plug is inserted into the network cable socket, the network cable is placed inside the multiple sets of cable clamps. The limiting sleeve 13 is pushed to compress the multiple sets of push springs 14, causing the limiting sleeve 13 to release its contact with the multiple sets of limiting blocks. The multiple sets of reset springs 16 then pull the positioning block 11 to disengage it from the positioning groove 12, releasing the positioning of the sliding sleeve 9. Then, the sliding sleeve 9 slides along the slide groove and drives the push sleeve 10 to slide along the multiple sets of first guide rods 20. The push sleeve 10 pushes the multiple sets of connecting plates 6 so that they pass through the slider 5 along the slide rod 4. The sliding mechanism causes multiple sets of cable trays 8 to clamp the outer wall of the network cable while simultaneously squeezing multiple sets of return springs 17. Multiple sets of soft pads 22 abut against the outer wall of the network cable and simultaneously squeeze multiple sets of telescopic springs 7. After the multiple sets of telescopic springs 7 are compressed, multiple sets of push springs 14 push the limiting sleeve 13 to slide along the second guide rod 21 through the limiting plate 19. Then, the limiting sleeve 13 abuts against the top of multiple sets of positioning blocks 11, so that its bottom end is engaged in the positioning groove 12. At the same time, multiple sets of reset springs 16 are compressed to position the sliding sleeve 9, thus completing the clamping of the network cable.

[0042] When it is necessary to release the clamp on the network cable, the push limit sleeve 13 is pushed to compress the multiple sets of push springs 14, so that the limit sleeve 13 releases its contact with the multiple sets of limit blocks. At the same time, the multiple sets of limit plates 19 slide along the second guide rod 21 and the second slide groove 18 respectively. The multiple sets of reset springs 16 pull the positioning block 11 to disengage it from the positioning groove 12, releasing the positioning of the slide sleeve 9. The multiple sets of return springs 17 reset and push the connecting block to slide along the slide rod 4 through the slider 5, thereby driving the multiple sets of cable trays 8 to release the clamp on the outer wall of the network cable.
