Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of cable installation technology, and in particular to a cable fixing structure. Background Technology

[0002] In mechanical or electromechanical equipment, connecting wires are often run through different mechanical structures. Due to safety requirements, sometimes it is necessary to fix the connecting wires to the mechanical structure. Taking circuit connecting wires as an example, circuit connecting wires need to pass through corresponding supports and be fixed to the supports to improve the safety of the circuit connection.

[0003] To address the technical problem of connecting cables passing through and being fixed to a support, CN201639207U discloses a wire clamping device. This device has a wire clamping groove for placing connecting cables that pass through through holes in the support. The clamping device is then fixed to the support using screws or other fasteners, thus clamping and securing the connecting cable. However, this fixing method is less effective on thin supports and can easily lead to fastener failure, such as stripped screws. Furthermore, this fixing method is cumbersome and time-consuming to install. Utility Model Content

[0025] In mechanical or electromechanical equipment, connecting wires are often run through different mechanical structures. Due to safety requirements, sometimes it is necessary to fix the connecting wires to the mechanical structure. Taking circuit connecting wires as an example, circuit connecting wires need to pass through corresponding supports and be fixed to the supports to improve the safety of the circuit connection.

[0026] To address the technical problem of connecting cables passing through and being fixed to a support, CN201639207U discloses a wire clamping device. This device has a wire clamping groove for placing connecting cables that pass through through holes in the support. The clamping device is then fixed to the support using screws or other fasteners, thus clamping and securing the connecting cable. However, this fixing method is less effective on thin supports and can easily lead to fastener failure, such as stripped screws. Furthermore, this fixing method is cumbersome and time-consuming to install.

[0027] See Figure 1 One embodiment of this application provides a fixing structure for a connecting wire 110, which passes through a support 100, the support 100 having a first surface 101 and a second surface 102 facing away from each other.

[0028] The fixing structure includes a male connector 300 and a female connector 200. The female connector 200 has an internal channel for the connecting wire 110 to pass through, and the connecting wire 110 is fixed within this channel. Specifically, the connecting wire 110 includes an outer sheath and several internal core wires; that is, the connecting wire 110 is a multi-core wire with a sheath. The outer sheath is connected to the female connector 200 via injection molding, and the core wires pass through the channel; the core wires can also be sheathed wires. When the connecting wire 110 is fixed to the female connector 200, one end of the multi-core wire is first divided into several core wires, and then the female connector 200 is integrally injection molded onto the connecting wire 110 using an injection molding process. Simultaneously with the formation of the female connector 200 structure, the connecting wire is positioned and fixed within the channel of the female connector 200.

[0029] The support 100 has a first through hole 103. The female connector 200 and the male connector 300 have a first abutting part 210 and a second abutting part 310 that abut against the first surface 101 and the second surface 102 to clamp the support 100. The female connector 200 includes a coupling part 220 that passes through the first through hole 103 and couples the male connector 300.

[0030] In use, the engaging portion 220 of the female connector 200 passes through the first through hole 103 of the support 100 from the first surface 101 to the second surface 102. The engaging portion 220 couples with the male connector 300, and the two are detachably fixedly connected to prevent the engaging portion 220 from retracting from the second surface 102 back to the first surface 101. The second abutting portion 310 of the male connector 300 and the first abutting portion 210 of the female connector 200 clamp the support 100, completing the fixation of the structure relative to the support 100. Since the connecting wire 110 is fixed within the channel of the female connector 200, and the engaging portion 220 of the female connector 200 passes through the support 100, the connection of the connecting wire 110 is simultaneously inserted and fixed relative to the support 100. Compared to the fastener fixing method, the fixing method using the mutual cooperation of the male connector 300 and the female connector 200 improves the aesthetics. The fixing method of the above-mentioned connecting cable 110 simplifies the fixing process and saves installation time.

[0031] See Figures 2-4The connecting portion 220 includes an anti-detachment portion 221, and the male connector 300 includes a blocking portion 320. The anti-detachment portion 221 and the blocking portion 320 interfere with each other to restrict the connecting portion 220 from disengaging from the first through hole 103. The interference between the anti-detachment portion 221 and the blocking portion 320 means that when the anti-detachment portion 221 has a tendency to detach from the support 100 along with the connecting portion 220, the blocking portion 320 has a blocking effect on the anti-detachment portion 221, and is not limited to the specific manner of interference. Specifically, the blocking portion 320 is disposed opposite to the first abutment portion 210 and forms a clamping space 211. The blocking portion 320 enters the clamping space 211 to prevent the connecting portion 220 from disengaging from the first through hole 103.

[0032] The female connector 200 includes a connecting portion 230 disposed between the anti-detachment portion 221 and the first abutment portion 210, and the male connector 300 includes a relief groove 330 adapted to the connecting portion 230. A blocking portion 320 is specifically disposed on both sides of the relief groove 330, and the blocking portion 320 may specifically be, for example, two extension arms of the male connector 300 extending into the clamping space 211.

[0033] The fixing structure includes a guide portion 321 that guides the anti-detachment portion 221 to prevent interference with the blocking portion 320. The guide portion 321 can be, for example, a guide ramp formed on the anti-detachment portion 221 or the blocking portion 320. For example, if the guide ramp is formed on the surface of the blocking portion 320, when the blocking portion 320 enters the clamping space 211, under the action of the guide ramp, the blocking portion 320 gradually makes an interference fit with the anti-detachment portion 221, achieving clamping of the first abutment portion 210 and the second abutment portion 310.

[0034] The fixing structure includes a limiting part 340 that restricts the movement path of the male connector 300 when it is engaged with the female connector 200. The male connector 300 has a movement path that interferes with the female connector 200. In the direction perpendicular to the movement path, the limiting part 340 includes two parts provided on two opposite sides of the male connector 300. The two limiting parts 340 are respectively used to limit the engagement with the two opposite sides of the engagement part 220.

[0035] The fixing structure includes a locking male connector 300 and a locking part that prevents the male connector 300 from disengaging from the female connector 200. The locking part, as a detachable fixing method where the anti-disengagement part 221 and the blocking part 320 interfere with each other, can be provided with a locking part 240 and a matching locking part 350 on the female connector 200 and male connector 300, respectively. During the movement process when the male connector 300 and female connector 200 are engaged, the locking part 240 and the matching locking part 350 are triggered and locked, restricting the relative position of the male connector 300 and female connector 200. For example, the matching locking part 350 is a snap-fit, and the locking part 240 is a snap-fit ​​part that cooperates with the matching locking part 350. After the snap-fit ​​part and the snap-fit ​​are engaged and locked, the snap-fit ​​part abuts against the male connector 300 and is simultaneously prevented from disengaging by the snap-fit, maintaining structural stability.

[0036] See Figures 1-4 The support 100 is provided with a second through hole 104, and the female connector 200 includes a positioning part 250 inserted into the second through hole 104. The positioning part 250 is used to position the female connector 200 relative to the support 100 before it interferes with the male connector 300, and can be provided on the side of the female connector 200 facing or away from the male connector 300. When provided on the side facing the male connector 300, the male connector 300 has a clearance channel 360 opened along its own movement path to avoid the positioning part 250. In some embodiments, the male connector 300 includes a positioning groove that mates with the positioning part 250. Specifically, in the adapted state of the male connector 300 and the connecting part 220, the positioning part is located in the clearance channel 360, and the position in the clearance channel 360 that accommodates the positioning part 250 can serve as a positioning groove.

[0037] See Figures 1-5 When the fixing structure of the connecting wire 110 is applied to a lighting fixture such as a panel light, the back plate of the panel light serves as a support 100. A panel light generally includes a light-emitting component, a back plate, a lampshade, and the connecting wire 110. The light-emitting component emits light after being powered. The back plate, as the support 100, has a first surface and a second surface 102 facing each other, and the light-emitting component is located on the second surface 102. The lampshade is positioned opposite the light-emitting component and cooperates with the back plate to shield the light-emitting component; the light-emitting component and lampshade are omitted in the figure. The connecting wire 110 passes through the first through-hole 103 of the back plate from the first surface 101 and is electrically connected to the light-emitting component. The connecting wire 110 is also fixed to the back plate to improve circuit safety.

[0038] The technical features of the embodiments described above can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features does not contradict each other, it should be considered to be within the scope of this specification. When technical features of different embodiments are embodied in the same drawing, it can be regarded as the drawing also disclosing examples of combinations of the various embodiments involved.

[0039] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this application.
