Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable connector technology, specifically, it demonstrates a cable connection connector mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Cables are a general term for items such as optical fibers and electrical cables. Cables have many uses, primarily for control installation, equipment connection, and power transmission, making them a common and indispensable part of daily life. Because cables are live, installation requires special care, and cables are often spliced ​​to achieve long-distance transmission.

[0003] Currently, cable connectors are commonly used to lock and secure incoming and outgoing cables. These connectors typically consist of a tube with an axial through hole, with a tubular component at one end and a cable connected to the other. Because these connectors require a clearance fit with the cable, they are prone to loosening and misalignment when the cable is inserted, resulting in an unsecured connection, inaccurate alignment, or even breakage. This can lead to potential short circuits in the cable. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cable connection connector mechanism that improves the connection effect between two cable segments.

[0005] The technical solution is as follows: A cable connector mechanism includes: The first and second connecting bodies are arranged in a mirror symmetrical manner, and both the first and second connecting bodies are provided with through axial slots. A fixed structure is provided to connect the first connector and the second connector respectively, ensuring that the two are on the same straight line. Several claw arms are arranged in a circumferential array at one end of the second connector for clamping cables; A pair of clamp bodies are respectively set on the outside of the first connecting body and the second connecting body, and the central axis of the clamp body and the central axis of the axial groove are on the same straight line.

[0006] In addition, the above embodiments of this utility model may also have the following additional technical features: According to one embodiment of this utility model, the fixing structure includes a pair of screws, a pair of supports, and a pair of fastening nuts. The pair of screws are respectively disposed on both sides of the first connecting body and the second connecting body. One end of the screw is disposed on the first connecting body or the second connecting body, and the support is disposed on the second connecting body or the first connecting body. The other end of the screw movably passes through the support and is threadedly connected to the fastening nut. The screws and fastening nuts provide an adjustable fastening mechanism, allowing easy adjustment of the clamping force between the two connecting bodies by rotating the fastening nut, thus achieving quick installation and disassembly.

[0007] In one embodiment, the two screws located on opposite sides of the first and second connectors are arranged in a reverse configuration. This design balances the distribution of tightening forces and improves the stability of the connection between the first and second connectors.

[0008] According to one embodiment of this utility model, the claw arm is mounted on the second connecting body via a bracket. The middle part of the claw arm is hinged to the bracket, and the rear part of the claw arm is provided with an adjusting bolt in a threaded manner. The head end of the adjusting bolt can contact the second connecting body. By rotating the adjusting bolt, the clamping angle and pressure of the claw arm can be controlled to achieve "fine-tuning".

[0009] In one embodiment, the head end of the claw arm is bent inward to form a downward pressing portion. The bending design increases the contact area between the claw arm and the cable, allowing the clamping force to be distributed more evenly on the cable surface.

[0010] According to one embodiment of this utility model, the clamp body is mounted on the first connecting body or the second connecting body via an extension arm. Both the first and second connecting bodies have two mounting portions of different lengths at their lower parts. The extension arm connects to each of the two mounting portions and is in an inclined position. The extension arm ensures that the clamp body is flush with the first or second connecting body, facilitating the horizontal feeding of the cable.

[0011] According to one embodiment of this utility model, a gap is left between the first connector and the second connector. This provides a buffer space and also facilitates observation of the splicing position between the two cable segments.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. The mirror-symmetrical first and second connectors ensure the balance and consistency of the connection mechanism, facilitate quick alignment during installation, reduce the risk of stress concentration or offset caused by asymmetry, and ensure that the cable remains straight during connection, avoiding bending or twisting.

[0013] 2. By fixing the first and second connectors on the same straight line through a fixed structure, the coaxiality of the entire connection mechanism is ensured, effectively preventing angular deviation or positional shift of the cable at the connection point.

[0014] 3. Several claw arms can apply clamping force evenly to the cable surface from multiple directions, avoiding cable damage or loosening caused by excessive pressure at a single point. Together with two clamps, they can assist in fixing the two cable sections, improving the stability of the lateral connection and preventing disconnection. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0016] 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.

[0017] This utility model embodiment proposes a cable connection joint mechanism, which is mainly used for splicing two cable segments. The structural design includes a first connector, a second connector, a fixing structure, several claw arms, and a pair of clamps.

[0018] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 are arranged in a mirror image symmetrically. Their structural designs are basically identical and they are located on the same straight line. Both the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 are provided with through axial slots 11 for cable entry. The inner diameter of the axial slots 11 is not less than the diameter of the cable. The symmetrical design of the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 ensures the balance and consistency of the connection mechanism, facilitating quick alignment during installation and reducing the risk of stress concentration or misalignment caused by asymmetry. The axial slots 11 provide a passage for the cable, ensuring that the cable remains straight during connection, avoiding bending or twisting, thereby improving the reliability of the connection and the quality of signal transmission.

[0019] In addition, a certain gap must be left between the first connector 1 and the second connector 2. This is equivalent to providing a buffer space, allowing the two connectors to undergo slight relative displacement due to thermal expansion, mechanical vibration, or installation errors, thus avoiding stress concentration or wear caused by direct contact.

[0020] The fixing structure 3 is used to connect the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 respectively, so that the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 can form an integral structure. By fixing the first connector and the second connector on the same straight line, the coaxiality of the entire connection mechanism is ensured, effectively preventing angular deviation or positional offset of the cable at the connection point, solving the problem of "inaccurate docking" mentioned in the background technology, and reducing the risk of cable short circuit.

[0021] Next, several claw arms 4 are arranged in a circumferential array at one end of the second connector 2 to clamp the cable. Of course, several claw arms 4 can also be arranged at one end of the first connector 1. The claw arms can apply clamping force evenly to the cable surface from multiple directions, avoiding cable damage or loosening caused by excessive pressure at a single point. This design enhances the stability and adaptability of the clamping, is suitable for cables of different diameters, and prevents the cable from coming off under vibration or tension.

[0022] Finally, a pair of clamp bodies 5 are mirror images of each other, positioned on the outside of the first connector 1 and the second connector 2. The clamp bodies 5 can lock and release the cables passing through them. The central axis of the clamp body 5 is on the same straight line as the central axis of the axial slot 11. That is to say, the connector mechanism in this embodiment consists of a clamp body + a first connector + a second connector + a clamp body, all four being flush. The clamp bodies provide auxiliary fixing and protection, preventing the connectors from deforming or separating due to external forces, while also protecting the internal cables from environmental influences, thus improving the durability and safety of the connector.

[0023] In other embodiments of this example, the fixing structure 3 includes a pair of screws 31, a pair of supports 32, and a pair of fastening nuts 33. The pair of screws 31 are respectively disposed on both sides of the first connecting body 1 and the second connecting body 2. One end of the screw 31 is disposed on the first connecting body 1 or the second connecting body 2, and the support 32 is disposed on the second connecting body 2 or the first connecting body 1. The other end of the screw 31 movably passes through the support 32 and is threadedly connected to the fastening nut 33. The screws and fastening nuts provide an adjustable fastening mechanism. By rotating the fastening nut, the clamping force between the two connecting bodies can be easily adjusted, and the relative position between the first connecting body and the second connecting body can be adjusted, enabling quick installation and disassembly.

[0024] The two screws 31 located on opposite sides of the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 are arranged in opposite directions; that is, one screw 31 is located on the first connector 1, and the other screw 31 is located on the second connector 2. When the fastening nut is tightened, the torque of the two screws can counteract the torsional torque, preventing the connectors from rotating or tilting during the tightening process. This ensures that the first and second connectors always remain coaxially aligned, reducing the risk of cable misalignment due to asymmetrical tightening and further improving the accuracy and stability of the connection.

[0025] In other embodiments of this example, the claw arm 4 is mounted on the second connector 2 via a bracket 22. The middle part of the claw arm 4 is hinged to the bracket 22, and the rear part of the claw arm 4 is provided with an adjusting bolt 23 by means of threads. The head end of the adjusting bolt 23 can contact the second connector 2. The bracket provides a stable base for the claw arm, while the hinged design allows the claw arm to swing around the midpoint, adapting to cables of different diameters or shapes, enhancing the versatility of the connector and the clamping effect. By rotating the adjusting bolt, the clamping angle and pressure of the claw arm can be controlled to achieve "fine-tuning". Specifically, the head end of the adjusting bolt contacts the second connector, forming a lever effect, so that the head end of the claw arm generates uniform downward pressure, ensuring that the cable is firmly clamped and will not loosen.

[0026] The head end of the claw arm 4 is bent inward to form a pressing part 41. The bending design at the head end of the claw arm increases the contact area between the claw arm and the cable, making the clamping force more evenly distributed on the cable surface, and also reducing the local stress or wear that may be caused by point contact.

[0027] In other embodiments of this example, the clamp body 5 is mounted on the first connector 1 or the second connector 2 via an extension arm 6. Both the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 have two mounting portions 21 of different lengths at their lower parts. The extension arm 6 connects the two mounting portions 21 respectively and is in an inclined position. The extension arm connects the clamp body to the connector, and the inclined extension arm ensures that the installation position of the clamp body is flush with the first or second connector, facilitating the horizontal feeding of the cable.

[0028] The above descriptions are merely some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, various modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the inventive concept of this utility model, and all such modifications and improvements fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
