Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of controller technology, specifically to a vehicle communication controller. Background Technology

[0002] A communication controller is a communication interface device in a data communication system, located between the data circuit and the host, used to control data transmission. The controller housing primarily houses and protects electronic components from environmental influences and / or mechanical loads. A typical electronic component usually consists of a PCB board on which electronic circuits and components are arranged. To facilitate component installation, the controller housing typically has at least two interconnectable housing elements, forming an internal cavity to house the electronic component. To effectively prevent mechanical loads on the electronic component, stable positioning within the housing cavity is essential.

[0003] Many data cables are plugged into the back of the communication controller. These data cables are distributed to various electronic components in the car. At the connection between the data cables and the controller, these data cables are scattered and are prone to loosening and falling off the controller. To solve this problem, a communication controller with a clamp to fix the data cables is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a vehicle communication controller that has the advantage of clamping and fixing data cables, thus solving the aforementioned problems.

[0005] To achieve the aforementioned purpose of clamping and fixing the data cable, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a vehicle communication controller, including a controller body, side plates fixedly installed on both sides of the controller body, a data cable inserted through the back of the controller body, a fixing plate removably installed on the bottom of the controller body by screws, an extension plate fixedly installed on the side of the fixing plate, screws fixedly installed on both sides of the extension plate, nuts threadedly connected to the outer side of the screws, a support plate movably installed on the extension plate through the screws and nuts, clamping rings movably installed on both sides of the support plate through hinges, and a torsion spring fitted on the outer side of the hinge.

[0006] Preferably, the extension plate has an internal mounting groove, an insert plate is inserted into the internal mounting groove, a push plate is fixedly mounted on the top of the insert plate, a spring is fixedly mounted on the side of the push plate, and a slot corresponding to the insert plate is provided on the side of the support plate.

[0007] Preferably, the two clamping rings have different diameters and are arranged to intersect each other, and the data cable is inserted inside the two clamping rings.

[0008] Preferably, the tray is engaged with the extension plate by means of a spring, a insert plate, and a slot.

[0009] Beneficial effects: This vehicle communication controller, by rotating the tray to a horizontal position and releasing the force applied to the push plate, allows the spring to push the insert plate into the slot, thus locking the tray in place. Then, opening the two staggered clamping rings allows multiple data cables to be placed on the tray. The torsion spring controls the two staggered clamping rings to clamp and secure the data cables, ensuring they do not loosen or fall off the controller body. The controller can also be detached from the fixing plate by removing the screws. Pushing the push plate backward compresses the spring, allowing the insert plate to leave the slot on the side of the tray. The tray can then rotate around the screw, allowing it to be folded for storage. Attached Figure Description

[0012] 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.

[0013] Please see Figure 1-2A vehicle communication controller includes a controller body 1, which is a known product and its principle will not be described in detail in this application; side plates 2 are fixedly installed on both sides of the controller body 1, and screw holes are provided on the surface of the side plates 2 to facilitate installation with the car frame; a data cable 3 is inserted through the back of the controller body 1, and the other end of the data cable 3 is connected to various electronic devices of the car.

[0014] Please see Figure 3-5 A fixing plate 5 is detachably mounted on the bottom of the controller body 1 via screws 4. An extension plate 6 is fixedly mounted on the side of the fixing plate 5. Screws 7 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the extension plate 6. Nuts 8 are threaded onto the outer side of the screws 7. A support plate 9 is movably mounted on the extension plate 6 via the screws 7 and nuts 8. Clamping rings 11 are movably mounted on both sides of the support plate 9 via hinge pins 10. The two clamping rings 11 have different diameters and are arranged to interlock, with the data cable 3 passing through the inside of the two clamping rings 11. A torsion spring 12 is fitted on the outer side of the hinge pin 10. Using the elastic force of the torsion spring 12, the two interlocking clamping rings 11 can be staggered to clamp the data cable 3, thereby clamping and fixing the data cable 3.

[0015] Please see Figure 3-5 The extension plate 6 has an internal mounting groove 13, and an insert plate 14 is inserted into the mounting groove 13. A push plate 15 is fixedly mounted on the top of the insert plate 14 and slides in the surface opening of the mounting groove 13. A spring 16 is fixedly mounted on the side of the push plate 15. A slot 17 corresponding to the insert plate 14 is opened on the side of the support plate 9. The support plate 9 is engaged with the extension plate 6 through the spring 16, the insert plate 14 and the slot 17.

[0016] In use, by rotating the tray 9 to a horizontal position and releasing the force applied to the push plate 15, the spring 16 pushes the insert plate 14 to slide into the slot 17, thereby locking the position of the tray 9; then, the two staggered clamping rings 11 are opened, and multiple data cables 3 can be placed on the tray 9. The torsion spring 12 controls the two staggered clamping rings 11 to hug each other, thereby clamping and fixing the data cables 3 and ensuring that the data cables 3 will not loosen and fall off the controller body 1.

[0017] By removing screw 4, the fixing plate 5 can be separated from the controller body 1; by pushing the push plate 15 backward, the spring 16 is compressed, and the insert plate 14 can leave the slot 17 on the side of the tray 9. The tray 9 can then rotate around the screw 7 to achieve folding and storage; by opening the clamping ring 11, the data cable 3 can be taken out.

[0018] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
