Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of restraint device technology, specifically a ship cable branch restraint device. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of the marine industry, various types of ships are gradually increasing their diverse equipment, and the number of branch cables running through the bulkheads or top areas is also increasing. The restraint device for ship cable branches can fix the cable branches in a specific position to prevent the cables from shifting or swinging due to ship swaying, vibration or other external forces, making the cable branches more regular and orderly.
[0003] Chinese patent CN210326736U discloses a restraint device suitable for ship cable routing. It includes a flat steel bar with adjustable-length flat steel branches fixedly connected to it. One end of each branch is welded to the flat steel bar, while the other end of the branch and both ends of the flat steel bar are bent. This device breaks with the traditional concept of flat steel for electrical outfitting components. By adding flat steel branches to the flat steel bar, and allowing the branches to be adjusted in length as needed, it avoids mutual interference between cables laid in different directions. It also saves overlapping space and makes the routing of branch cables more convenient and versatile.
[0004] However, the constraint device disclosed in the above patent still has certain shortcomings in practical applications. Since the flat steel used to constrain the ship cable is welded together, the direction of constraint on the ship cable cannot be adjusted. Furthermore, the actual branching direction of the ship cable is varied, and the constraint device disclosed in the above patent cannot adjust the angle according to the needs of the cable branching direction, which is quite inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a ship cable branch restraint device to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the existing ship cable branch restraint devices cannot adjust the restraint direction of the ship cable, making them inconvenient to use.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a ship cable branch restraint device, comprising a restraint disc, four steering columns arranged in a circular array rotatably connected to the circumferential sidewall of the restraint disc, a plurality of positioning holes arranged in a circular array uniformly opened on the surface of the steering column, a connecting block fixedly connected to the end of the steering column, a concave connector fixedly connected to one sidewall of the connecting block, a rotating shaft rotatably connected between the two sidewalls of the concave connector, a cable fixing plate fixedly sleeved on the surface of the shaft, a cable fixing mechanism provided in the plate body of the cable fixing plate, and a positioning mechanism provided on the top of the steering column.
[0007] Preferably, the positioning mechanism includes a bent plate fixedly installed on the top wall of the constraint disk, a horizontal plate fixed on one side wall of the bent plate, and a positioning rod movably installed through the top wall of the bent plate. The bottom end of the positioning rod movably passes through the plate of the horizontal plate and extends into the cavity of the positioning hole.
[0008] Preferably, the positioning mechanism further includes a first reset plate fixedly sleeved on the surface of the positioning rod and a first spring sleeved on the surface of the positioning rod. The first spring and the first reset plate are both located in the cavity between the horizontal plate and the top wall of the bent plate, and the first spring is located at the top of the first reset plate. A lever is fixed to the top end of the positioning rod.
[0009] Preferably, the cable fixing mechanism includes a constraint groove formed in the middle of the cable fixing plate, the two side walls of the constraint groove are arc-shaped, an arc-shaped clamping plate is provided in the constraint groove, and a movable rod is fixedly connected to one side wall of the arc-shaped clamping plate.
[0010] Preferably, the cable fixing mechanism further includes a cavity formed in the end plate of the cable fixing plate, the rod of the movable rod movably passes through the two side walls of the cavity, and a second reset plate and a second spring are provided in the cavity.
[0011] Preferably, the second reset plate is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the movable rod, the second spring is sleeved on the surface of the movable rod, and the second spring is located on the side of the second reset plate away from the constraint groove. A fixing head is fixedly connected to the end of the movable rod away from the arc-shaped clamping plate.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] This invention connects a rotatable steering column to the circumferential sidewall of a constraint disk, fixes a connecting block on the steering column, and fixes a concave connector on the connecting block. A cable fixing plate for fixing the ship's cable is connected to the concave connector via a rotating shaft. Under the action of a positioning mechanism, the cable fixing plate can be adjusted around the rotating shaft, and the concave connector and connecting block can be adjusted by rotating the steering column. This allows the constraint direction of the cable to be adjusted according to the actual branching needs of the ship's cable, avoiding the problem of existing constraint devices being unable to adjust the cable constraint direction. This helps to achieve a more regular and orderly branching of the ship's cable.
[0014] This invention creates a constraint groove and cavity on the cable fixing plate, allowing the fixing head to move the movable rod, which in turn moves the arc-shaped clamping plate, thereby clamping and fixing marine cables of different specifications in the constraint groove.

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a ship cable branch restraint device, including a restraint disc 1. Four steering columns 10 arranged in a circular array are rotatably connected to the circumferential sidewall of the restraint disc 1. The connection between the steering columns 10 and the restraint disc 1 is achieved using bearings. Multiple positioning holes 11 arranged in a circular array are evenly distributed on the surface of the steering column 10. A connecting block 2 is welded to the end of the steering column 10. A concave connector 3 is welded to the sidewall of the connecting block 2 away from the restraint disc 1. A rotating shaft 301 is rotatably connected between the two sidewalls of the concave connector 3 via bearings. A cable fixing plate 4 is welded to the surface of the shaft 301 to allow the cable fixing plate 4 to rotate. A cable fixing mechanism is installed in the cable fixing plate 4. A positioning mechanism is provided on the top of the steering column 10 for positioning and fixing the steering column 10 after rotation.
[0022] The positioning mechanism includes a bent plate 8 welded to the top wall of the constraint plate 1. A horizontal plate 9 is welded to one side wall of the bent plate 8. A positioning rod 13 is movably installed through the top wall of the bent plate 8. The bottom end of the positioning rod 13 movably passes through the plate of the horizontal plate 9 and extends into the cavity of the positioning hole 11, so that the positioning rod 13 can be moved up and down. The positioning mechanism also includes a first reset plate 15 welded to the surface of the positioning rod 13 and a first spring 14 sleeved on the surface of the positioning rod 13. The first spring 14 and the first reset plate 15 are both located in the cavity between the horizontal plate 9 and the top wall of the bent plate 8, and the first spring 14 is located at the top of the first reset plate 15. A lever 12 is welded to the top end of the positioning rod 13. The cable fixing mechanism includes a constraint groove 5 opened in the middle of the cable fixing plate 4. The two side walls of the cavity of the constraint groove 5 are arc-shaped. An arc-shaped clamping plate 6 is set in the cavity of the constraint groove 5. A movable rod 16 is welded to the side wall of the arc-shaped clamping plate 6 away from the constraint plate 1. The cable fixing mechanism also includes a cavity 17 formed in the end plate of the cable fixing plate 4. The rod of the movable rod 16 moves through the two side walls of the cavity 17. A second reset plate 18 and a second spring 19 are disposed in the cavity 17. The second reset plate 18 is welded to the surface of the rod of the movable rod 16, and the second spring 19 is sleeved on the surface of the rod of the movable rod 16. The second spring 19 is located on the side of the second reset plate 18 away from the constraint groove 5. A fixing head 7 is welded to the end of the movable rod 16 away from the arc-shaped clamping plate 6. The purpose of the fixing head 7 is to facilitate the movement of the movable rod 16.
[0023] In use, first pull the fixing head 7 away from the restraint plate 1 to move the movable rod 16, causing the arc-shaped clamping plate 6 to move and create clamping space. During this process, the second reset plate 18 will compress the second spring 19, allowing the ship's cable branch to pass through the restraint groove 5. Release the fixing head 7, and the second reset plate 18 will automatically reset under the action of the second spring 19, causing the arc-shaped clamping plate 6 to automatically clamp and fix the cable located in the restraint groove 5. When the restraint device needs to adjust the direction of the cable branch, simply lift the lever 12 upwards to raise the positioning rod 13, causing the positioning rod 13 to be pulled out of the positioning hole 11, allowing rotation and steering. The column 10 drives the cable fixing plate 4 to rotate. After adjustment, the lever 12 can be released. Under the action of the first spring 14, the first reset plate 15 drives the positioning rod 13 to automatically insert into the corresponding positioning hole 11 to position and fix the steering column 10. Thus, under the action of the positioning mechanism, the cable fixing plate 4 can be adjusted around the rotating shaft 301. The concave connector 3 and the connecting block 2 can be adjusted by rotating with the steering column 10. In this way, the constraint direction of the cable can be adjusted according to the actual branching needs of the ship's cable, avoiding the problem that the existing constraint device cannot adjust the constraint direction of the cable. This helps to make the branching of the ship's cable more regular and orderly.
