Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable device technology, and specifically to a cable clamp. Background Technology
[0002] To secure cables to cable supports, individual cable clamps are typically required. Based on cable laying needs, cable clamps are categorized into rigid clamps and flexible clamps. Rigid clamps require that the cable cannot shift radially or axially after the clamp bolts are tightened; while flexible clamps require that the cable cannot shift radially after the clamp bolts are tightened, but can shift axially. Currently, rigid cable clamps and flexible clamps are usually manufactured and supplied as two different types of clamps, which is inconvenient to use and needs improvement. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address at least one of the aforementioned technical deficiencies, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0004] This application discloses a cable clamp, including an upper clamp body, a lower clamp body, and a fastener connecting the upper clamp body and the lower clamp body. The upper clamp body has a support rib formed at intervals on the surface facing the lower clamp body, and a groove is formed between adjacent support ribs. The lower clamp body has a support rib formed at intervals on the surface facing the upper clamp body, and a groove is formed between adjacent support ribs. When the upper clamp body and the lower clamp body are connected by the fastener, the grooves, the support ribs and the support ribs cooperate to form a clamping groove for holding cables.
[0005] State 1: The upper clamp and the lower clamp are connected by fastener 1, and support rib 1 and support rib 2 are opposite each other; State 2: After the upper clamp rotates 180°, it is connected to the lower clamp by fastener 1, and support rib 1 and support rib 2 are misaligned.
[0006] In use, when in state one, the upper and lower clamps are connected, support rib one and support rib two are opposite each other, and the horizontal distance between support rib one and support rib two at the opposite corner is large, which can meet the axial movement requirements of the corresponding cable; when in state two, the upper and lower clamps are connected, support rib one and support rib two are staggered, and the distance between support rib one and support rib two at the opposite corner becomes smaller, which can better clamp and fix the cable, restricting its radial and axial displacement. This structure can meet the rigid and flexible fixing requirements of the cable.
[0007] Furthermore, through holes are provided at both ends of the upper clamping body, and threaded holes are provided at both ends of the lower clamping body. The end of the fastener passes through the through hole and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole, so that the upper clamping body and the lower clamping body are connected, which facilitates docking and installation.
[0008] Furthermore, the lower clamp body has a protrusion at the upper part of both ends and a protrusion at the lower part. The protrusions are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction. The protrusion is provided with a threaded hole and the protrusion is provided with a mounting hole for fixing. The upper clamp body has a protrusion at both ends and a through hole is provided on the protrusion. The forming of the protrusions is convenient for the placement of through holes, threaded holes, etc.
[0009] Furthermore, a second fastener, such as a bolt, is provided at the mounting hole.
[0010] Furthermore, pads are provided on the walls of the first and second grooves to better protect the cable.
[0011] Furthermore, a weight-reducing hole 1 is provided at the upper clamping body between the two grooves, a weight-reducing hole 2 is provided at the lower clamping body between the two grooves, and a weight-reducing hole 3 is provided at the lower clamping body below the two grooves, which helps to reduce weight and facilitate transportation and assembly.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. This utility model improves the structure by switching between the upper and lower clamps to achieve both rigid and flexible fixing of the cable, making it convenient to use. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0020] Example 1
[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, in this example, a cable clamp includes an upper clamp 1, a lower clamp 2, and a fastener 3 connecting the upper clamp 1 and the lower clamp 2. The fastener 3 is such as a common bolt.
[0022] The upper clamp 1 has a support rib 6 protruding outwards at intervals on its bottom surface facing the lower clamp 2. Between adjacent support ribs 6, the upper clamp 1 has a groove 13, which is a common arc-shaped groove. The lower clamp 2 has a support rib 5 protruding outwards at intervals on its surface facing the upper clamp 1. Between adjacent support ribs 5, a groove 26 is formed, which is a common arc-shaped groove. When the upper and lower clamps are connected by a fastener, the grooves 1 and 2, the support ribs 1 and 2 cooperate to form a clamping groove for holding cables.
[0023] In this example, the cable clamp has two structural forms. In state one, the upper clamp body 1 and the lower clamp body 2 are connected by fastener 3. Support rib 6 and support rib 5 are opposite each other and abut against each other. In this state, the horizontal distance between support rib 6 and support rib 5 at the opposite corner is large, and the cable can move axially in the middle to meet the requirements of flexible fixation.
[0024] State 2: After the upper clamping body 1 rotates horizontally 180° (i.e., turns horizontally), it is connected to the lower clamping body 2 via fastener 3. At this time, support rib 6 and support rib 5 are misaligned. Figure 2 As shown, at this time, the horizontal distance between support rib 1 6 and support rib 2 5 at the diagonal position becomes smaller, and support rib 1 and support rib 2 can better clamp and fix the cable, restricting its radial and axial displacement, thus meeting the requirement of rigid cable fixation.
[0025] In this example, the upper clamping body 1 has longitudinally formed through holes at both ends, and the lower clamping body 2 has corresponding longitudinally formed threaded holes at both ends. Specifically, the upper clamping body 1 has protruding plates at both ends of its main body 10, namely protrusions 23, with longitudinally formed through holes on protrusions 23. Fasteners 3, such as bolts, pass through the through holes. The lower clamping body 2 has protruding plates at the upper part of both ends of its main body 21, namely protrusions 11, with longitudinally formed threaded holes on protrusions 11. The ends of fasteners 3, passing through the through holes, are threadedly connected to the threaded holes, thus connecting the upper and lower clamping bodies. The positions of the perforations on the protrusions 23 at both ends of the body 20 of the upper clamping body 1 can be different. For example, the horizontal distance between the perforation on the left protrusion 23 and the adjacent support rib 6 is greater than the horizontal distance between the perforation on the right protrusion 23 and the adjacent support rib 6. When the upper clamping body is connected to the lower clamping body without turning horizontally, the support rib 6 and the support rib 25 are opposite each other and abut against each other. When the upper clamping body 1 is rotated 180° horizontally, the original right protrusion 3 turns to the left, and the support rib 6 and the support rib 25 are misaligned.
[0026] In this example, the lower clamp 2 has two protruding plates at the lower ends of the body 11, namely the second protrusion 22. The first protrusion 11 and the second protrusion 22 are spaced apart in the longitudinal direction. The second protrusion 22 has mounting holes for fixing in the longitudinal direction. If a second fastener 7 is added, with a bolt as the second fastener, the end of the bolt in the second fastener 7 extends into the through hole and is screwed on with a nut. The lower clamp can be fixed to other mechanisms through the second fastener.
[0027] Gaskets 4 can also be installed on the walls of groove 13 and groove 26. If the gaskets cover the walls of groove 1 or groove 2, and the gaskets abut against the cables, the cables can be better protected.
[0028] To reduce weight, a through hole or groove can be formed in the upper clamping body between the grooves 13, namely the weight reduction hole 12; and a weight reduction hole 24 can be formed in the lower clamping body 2 between the grooves 26, and a weight reduction hole 3 25 can be formed in the lower clamping body 2 below the grooves 26.
[0029] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are within its protection scope. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within its protection scope.
