Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of multi-directional connectors, and more specifically, to a multi-directional connector for flexible rigging with an adaptive interface. Background Technology

[0002] A multi-directional connector is a mechanical component specifically designed for connecting flexible rigging, such as steel wire ropes and synthetic fiber cables. Its core function is to achieve stable docking and force transmission of multiple flexible rigging in different directions. It also has the ability to adapt to different specifications of rigging and is widely used in scenarios that require multi-directional connection of rigging, such as lifting, hoisting, transportation, and construction.

[0003] A search revealed that Chinese patent CN211571360U discloses a "multi-directional connector with hydraulic damping for a suspension bridge steel truss," which includes a multi-directional connection node and a hydraulic damper. The multi-directional connection node consists of a traction seat welded in multiple directions on a connecting carrier. The hydraulic damper includes a front tie rod, a rear tie rod, and a sealing tube. The front tie rod is hinged to the traction seat via a pin, and the rear tie rod is hinged to the truss connecting rod via a pin. A piston assembly is fitted in the middle or at one end of the sealing tube. This piston assembly includes an active piston and a passive piston, and both pistons have oil passages extending through both sides. This invention provides vibration damping and damping functions for each truss connecting rod in the truss structure. The multi-directional connection node of the hydraulic damping multi-directional connector can independently adjust each truss connecting rod to eliminate adverse vibrations.

[0004] However, the following defects still exist:

[0005] (1) The docking components are mostly single interfaces or a fixed number of connection points, which leads to poor adaptability. They can only match flexible rigging of specific specifications. When facing rigging of different thicknesses and types or when used in complex spaces, different models of connectors need to be replaced. This not only increases the equipment procurement cost, but also reduces the installation efficiency significantly due to frequent replacements, making it difficult to meet the diverse connection needs in multiple scenarios.

[0006] (2) Insufficient installation flexibility. Due to the fixed connection points and single installation method, the preset position must be strictly aligned during installation. If there is a deviation between the on-site installation space and the preset position, it is easy to encounter problems such as being unable to install or uneven stress on the rigging after installation. Additional adjustments to the installation environment or cutting and modification of the rigging are required, which further increases the complexity and time cost of the installation operation.

[0007] To address this, a multi-directional connector for flexible rigging with an adaptive interface is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of this utility model is to address the existing problems.

[0009] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0010] The present invention is as follows: a multi-directional connector for flexible rigging with an adaptive interface, comprising a connector body, a limiting sleeve plate fixedly connected to one side of the connector body, and a mating limiting opening provided on the inner ring surface of the limiting sleeve plate.

[0011] The inner ring surface of the limiting sleeve plate is engaged with a mating insertion limiting block, the inner ring surface of the mating insertion limiting block is fixedly connected with a connecting plate, a support rod is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate, and a mating base plate is fixedly connected to one side of the support rod.

[0012] A docking frame is fixedly connected to the side surface of the docking base plate. A positioning plate is locked to the side surface of the docking frame. A docking ring is fixedly connected to one side of the connector body. A sleeve ring is fixedly connected to one side of the docking ring. A cylindrical insert is inserted into the inner ring surface of the sleeve ring. A docking plate is fixedly connected to one side of the cylindrical insert. A mounting plate is fixedly connected to one side of the docking plate. A fixing block is fixedly connected to one side of the sleeve ring. A nut is fixedly connected to one side of the fixing block.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the inner surface of the sleeve ring is provided with an insertion opening, and the size of the insertion opening and the cylindrical insert are matched.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the inner ring surface of the nut is fitted with a threaded rod, and the threaded rod is connected between the nut and the fixing block.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the nut is connected between a fixing block and a sleeve ring, and the fixing block is symmetrically arranged with the vertical center line of the nut as the axis of symmetry.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the mounting plate has a mounting opening on one side, and the number of mounting openings is multiple.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the positioning plate is connected between the docking frame and the docking base plate, and there are multiple docking frames arranged around the docking base plate as the center point.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the side surface of the positioning plate is provided with positioning openings, and the number of positioning openings is multiple.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0020] 1. Through the snap-fit ​​structure of the limiting socket plate and the docking plug limiting block, and the limiting plug-in design of the socket ring and the cylindrical plug rod, combined with a large number of surrounding docking frames and mounting plates and positioning plates with multiple installation openings and positioning openings, it can not only achieve adaptive docking with flexible rigging of different specifications to meet the connection needs in multiple scenarios, but also provide multiple positions and multiple methods for installation operations, greatly improving the convenience of installation and adaptability to different usage environments.

[0021] 2. A stable basic connection structure is formed by the mating ring and the socket ring on one side of the connector body. The cooperation of the fixing block, nut, and threaded rod can firmly limit the cylindrical plug and prevent loosening at the insertion point. At the same time, the positioning plate is stably connected to the mating base plate through the mating frame. The multiple positioning openings can further enhance the positioning effect after the rigging is connected. The multiple stable structures work together to effectively improve the overall load-bearing capacity and connection reliability of the connector and reduce the safety risks caused by unstable connection during the use of the rigging.
