Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pole clamp technology, and in particular to a universal pole clamp. Background Technology

[0002] Pole clamps, as a common fixing structure, are widely used in various situations requiring the fixation of equipment or products to pole-shaped supports, such as antenna masts, traffic sign posts, and surveillance camera brackets. In existing technologies, pole clamps primarily employ a clamp-type structure to secure the pole. However, traditional clamp-type pole clamps have the following shortcomings in practical applications:

[0003] 1. The installation is cumbersome, the process is complex, time-consuming, and difficult.

[0004] 2. Limited fixing effect: The fixing force of the clamp-type pole clamp mainly relies on the friction between the clamp and the pole. Under long-term use or when subjected to external impact, it is easy to loosen or slip, resulting in a decrease in fixing effect.

[0005] 3. Poor applicability: Traditional clamp-type pole clamps are typically only suitable for poles of specific shapes and sizes, such as round poles. They are difficult to apply to irregularly shaped poles or poles with significant size differences, resulting in poor versatility. To accommodate poles of different specifications, multiple sizes of clamps need to be prepared, increasing costs and management complexity.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to further improve and perfect the existing technology to overcome these shortcomings, and this utility model is made based on this situation. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a universal pole clamp that is easy to install, reliable in fixing, and has a wider range of applications.

[0008] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0009] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a universal rod clamp, including a support and fixing base. The bottom of the support and fixing base is provided with a downwardly extending clamping arm. The inner side of the clamping arm is provided with an arc-shaped clamping surface. The universal rod clamp also includes a clamping plate disposed opposite to the clamping arm. The clamping plate is provided with at least one clamping slot opposite to the clamping surface. The clamping slot is V-shaped or arc-shaped, and the sidewall of the clamping slot is stepped and includes several clamping teeth. An adjustable fastening assembly is also provided between the clamping plate and the clamping arm.

[0010] To further address the technical problems to be solved by this utility model, this utility model provides a universal rod clamp in which the adjustable fastening assembly includes a U-bolt. The bent portion of the U-bolt is fixed to the outside of the clamping arm. The clamping plate is provided with at least two first through holes. The two free ends of the U-bolt pass through the corresponding first through holes, and the two free ends of the U-bolt are respectively threaded with nuts.

[0011] In order to further solve the technical problem to be solved by this utility model, the nut in the universal rod clamp provided by this utility model is a wing nut.

[0012] In order to further solve the technical problem to be solved by this utility model, the utility model provides a universal rod clamp in which the clamping plate is a U-shaped plate and includes an upper plate, a side plate and a lower plate. The upper plate and the lower plate are provided with the clamping groove on the side facing the clamping surface, and the first through hole is opened on the side plate.

[0013] In order to further solve the technical problems to be solved by this utility model, this utility model provides a universal rod clamp in which the clamp arm is provided with at least two second through holes for U-bolts to pass through.

[0014] In order to further solve the technical problem to be solved by this utility model, the utility model provides a universal rod clamp in which the clamping arm is provided with a slot on the side away from the clamping surface, and the bent part of the U-bolt is inserted into the slot.

[0015] To further address the technical problems to be solved by this utility model, a universal rod clamp provided by this utility model has multiple anti-slip grooves distributed on the clamping surface.

[0016] In order to further solve the technical problems to be solved by this utility model, the utility model provides a universal rod clamp in which the top of the support fixing seat is provided with a bearing surface for bearing equipment or objects.

[0017] To further address the technical problems addressed by this utility model, a universal rod clamp is provided in which an L-shaped wire-passing hole is provided on the bearing surface above the clamp arm for the cable to pass through.

[0018] To further address the technical problems addressed by this utility model, a universal rod clamp is provided in which a snap-fit ​​block protruding from the bearing surface and having elasticity is detachably connected to the support fixing base for fixing the equipment or object being carried.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0020] 1. This utility model adopts a unique clamping structure design. By setting V-shaped or arc-shaped clamping slots with stepped clamping teeth on the clamping plate, which cooperate with the arc-shaped clamping surface on the clamping arm, the rod clamp can adapt to rods of various shapes (circular, square, polygonal, etc.) and sizes, significantly improving its versatility and applicability. Compared with traditional clamp-type rod clamps, there is no need to replace clamps of different specifications, greatly reducing the cost of use and maintenance complexity.

[0021] 2. The adjustable fastening assembly of this utility model adopts a fastening method of U-bolts combined with wing nuts. This not only makes installation simple and quick, requiring no professional tools, but also allows for flexible adjustment of the clamping force, ensuring stable clamping of rods of different materials and thicknesses, effectively preventing loosening and slippage, and improving safety and reliability. Furthermore, the slot design enhances the fixing effect of the U-bolt, further improving the stability of the overall structure. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment provides a universal rod clamp, the core components of which include a support base 1, a clamping arm 11, a clamping plate 2, and an adjustable fastening assembly. This universal rod clamp aims to provide a solution capable of securely clamping rods of different shapes and sizes.

[0030] The bottom of the support base 1 is integrally formed or fixedly connected to a downwardly extending clamping arm 11. The inner surface of the clamping arm 11 is designed with an arc-shaped clamping surface 111. Preferably, the clamping surface 111 is not a smooth plane, but is distributed with multiple anti-slip grooves 114 to increase the friction with the surface of the rod and prevent slippage.

[0031] Opposite to the clamping arm 11 is the clamping plate 2. In this embodiment, the clamping plate 2 is preferably a U-shaped plate, including an upper plate 2a, a side plate 2b, and a lower plate 2c. The inner sides of the upper plate 2a and the lower plate 2c, that is, the side facing the clamping surface 111, are both provided with clamping slots 21.

[0032] The design of the clamping slot 21 is one of the key features of this invention. Its shape is preferably V-shaped or arc-shaped, and the sidewall of the slot is not a simple inclined surface, but rather stepped, forming several clamping teeth 22. This stepped structure can engage with the surfaces of rods of different shapes. For example, when clamping a round rod, the clamping teeth 22 can embed into the surface of the round rod, providing multiple contact points and increasing stability; when clamping a square or polygonal rod, the stepped structure can fit against the edges of the rod, preventing rotation.

[0033] The clamping arm 11 is also provided with at least two second through holes 112 for engaging with the adjustable fastening assembly. The side plate 2b is provided with at least two first through holes 23, corresponding to the positions of the second through holes 112 on the clamping arm 11, for the passage and fixation of the adjustable fastening assembly. To better secure the fastening assembly, the side of the clamping arm 11 opposite to the clamping surface 111 is also provided with a slot 113, providing positioning for the installation of the fastening assembly.

[0034] In this embodiment, the adjustable fastening assembly consists of a U-bolt 3, a nut 4, a spring washer 41, and a gasket 42. The bent part of the U-bolt 3 is inserted into the groove 113 on the outside of the clamping arm 11, and the two free ends pass through the second through hole 112 on the clamping arm 11 and the first through hole 23 on the side plate 2b of the clamping plate 2, respectively. The ends of the two free ends are threaded with nuts 4.

[0035] For ease of operation, nut 4 is preferably a wing nut, which can be tightened or loosened by hand. Spring washer 41 and washer 42 are located between nut 4 and clamping plate 2. Spring washer 41 provides cushioning and anti-loosening function, while washer 42 increases the contact area and protects the surface of clamping plate 2.

[0036] When using the universal rod clamp of this utility model, first place the rod between the clamping surface 111 of the clamping arm 11 and the clamping slot 21 of the clamping plate 2, then pass the U-bolt 3 through the corresponding through hole and tighten it with the nut 4. By tightening the nut 4, the distance between the clamping arm 11 and the clamping plate 2 can be adjusted, thereby achieving clamping of rods of different diameters.

[0037] The stepped clamping slot 21 and the arc-shaped clamping surface 111 cooperate with each other, making the universal rod clamp applicable to rods of various shapes such as round rods, square rods, and polygonal rods. The clamping teeth 22 can provide a good biting effect, ensuring stable clamping and preventing loosening.

[0038] In addition, the top of the support base 1 is provided with a bearing surface 12 for supporting equipment or objects, such as antennas, cameras, etc. To facilitate the passage and fixation of cables, the bearing surface 12 is also provided with an L-shaped cable hole 121, through which cables can pass to avoid clutter. To better fix the supported equipment or objects, the support base 1 can also be detachably connected to a spring-loaded snap-fit ​​block 13 protruding from the bearing surface 12 (which can snap into corresponding grooves on the equipment or objects), using the elastic deformation of the snap-fit ​​block 13 to fix the equipment or objects.

[0039] As can be seen from the above description of the embodiments, the universal pole clamp of this utility model has the advantages of simple structure, convenient installation, reliable fixation and wide applicability. It can effectively solve the shortcomings of existing pole clamp technology and meet the needs of different application scenarios.
