For a person skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the aforementioned terms in the application can be understood depending on the specific situation. During battery module testing, dozens to over a hundred voltage and temperature signals from individual cells within the module must be acquired. These signals must be captured via the auxiliary channel of the battery charging and discharging test equipment, using an independent wiring connection, with each acquisition channel using its own conductor. One end of each conductor is connected to terminals on the data acquisition device, and the other end is connected via a test clip to the corresponding measurement point on the battery module. During testing, it was found that the large number and considerable length of the auxiliary channel acquisition cables led to problems such as cable clutter, difficulty in channel identification, time-consuming organization, and reduced reliability. Based on the problems mentioned above, the present application provides a cable harness management device for managing and storing cables for auxiliary channels during the testing of battery modules. The following describes, with reference to Figures 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 to 6, the cable harness management device according to the embodiments of the present application. Figure 1 is a schematic overall view of the cable harness management device according to one embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 is a schematic view of the cable harness management plate according to one embodiment of the present application; Figure 3 is a main view of the embodiment of the cable harness management plate according to one embodiment of the present application; Figure 4 is a schematic view of the cable harness management plate according to another embodiment of the present application; Figure 5 is a schematic view of the support rod according to one embodiment of the present application; Figure 6 is a schematic view of the support rod according to one embodiment of the present application.Figure 6 is a schematic representation of the basis according to an embodiment of the present application. The embodiment of the present application provides a management device for cable harnesses, comprising: a base 1 and at least two management plates for cable harnesses 2, wherein at least two management plates for cable harnesses 2 are arranged on the base 1 along a first direction X relative to each other, wherein the edges of the management plate for cable harnesses 2 have several plug slots 21, wherein the opposing plug slots 21 on the management plate for cable harnesses 2 along the first direction X correspond in pairs, wherein the corresponding plug slots 21 are intended for passing the same cable harness. In this embodiment, several cable harness management plates 2 are mounted on the base 1. These plates serve to arrange several cable harness management plates 2 of the same cable side by side along the first direction X. The first direction X corresponds to the longitudinal direction of the cable harness, and the number of cable harness management plates 2 is at least two, with the two ends of the cable harness each being arranged in the plug slots 21 of the two cable harness management plates 2. In the embodiment shown in Fig. 1, a cable harness is secured by three cable harness management plates 2. The three cable harness management plates 2 are spaced apart along the first direction X and correspond to the two ends and the center position of the cable harness, thus preventing sagging or swinging due to excessive cable harness length. Each cable harness management plate 2 has slots 21 along its edge. The same cable is successively fed through the corresponding slots 21 on different cable harness management plates 2, so that the cable runs sequentially through the three cable harness management plates 2 along the first direction X. The cable ends are located on the outside of the two cable harness management plates 2 at both ends, effectively preventing the cables from becoming entangled. The cable harness management device described in this embodiment can be used both for managing cable harnesses during battery module testing and for storing them when idle. When a specific battery module performance needs to be tested, the clamps at both ends of the corresponding cable harness are connected to the appropriate interfaces. One end is connected to the sensing device port, and the other end is connected via a test clamp to the corresponding measurement point on the battery module. After the test is complete, the clamps are simply disconnected. Assembly is only required the first time the device is used, with cable harnesses being attached to the cable harness management device sequentially.During the further course of the test, handling is limited to simply plugging and unplugging the terminals, thus eliminating the need for reassembly and disassembly, which simplifies the installation and storage of the cable harnesses, optimizes the test procedure, reduces the workload and increases work efficiency. In practical application, the number and spacing of the cable harness management plates 2 can be flexibly adjusted according to the length of the cable harness. For longer cable harnesses, the number of management plates 2 between the two end plates can be appropriately increased to create additional intermediate supports, reduce the span of the cable harness, and thus reduce the support reactions at the connection points between the cable harnesses and the management plates 2, as well as the bending moment to which the middle section of the cable harness is subjected. This reduces the risk of damage after prolonged use and increases the service life of the cable harness. The spacing between the management plates 2 can be adjusted according to the cable length, making the management device suitable for cable harnesses of varying lengths.Once the cable harnesses are attached to the cable harness management plate 2, they can expand naturally without causing excessive bending or pulling. This prevents damage to the inner conductors from excessive bending of the cable harnesses and also prevents the cable harnesses from hanging on the floor, thus preventing operators from easily pulling on or stepping on them as they walk by. On the cable harness management plate 2, the cable harnesses are secured, in particular, by the slots 21. Several slots 21 for routing the cable harnesses are arranged along each edge of the cable harness management plate 2. The slot 21 is connected to the edge of the cable harness management plate 2. The cable harnesses are inserted into the slot 21 from the openings of the slots 21 at the edge of the cable harness management plate 2. The width of the slot 21 is adapted to the diameter of the cable harness. Clamps are attached to both ends of the cable harness, which serve to connect it to the data acquisition device and the measuring points of the battery module. The dimensions of the clamp are larger than the width of the slot 21, so that the cable harness can only slide along the slot 21 and be inserted into or removed from the side surface of the cable harness management plate 2.This makes it more difficult for the ends to slip out of slot 21. The plug slots 21 located on opposing cable harness management plates 2 are aligned along the first direction X. The same cable harness is routed through the corresponding plug slots 21 along the first direction X. Several cable harnesses attached to the same cable harness management plate 2 are arranged independently and parallel to one another, ensuring that the cable harnesses run uniformly and in an orderly manner within the device, which also reduces the likelihood of the cables becoming entangled. When a specific operation is required for the cable harness, it is sufficient to quickly locate the corresponding plug slot 21 and proceed with installation, removal, or maintenance, which significantly improves ease of use.The spacing and dimensions of the plug slots 21 on each cable harness management plate 2 can be designed according to the diameter and distribution density of the cable harness to ensure that the cable harness is not excessively bent or twisted and that the cable harness management plate 2 has sufficient load-bearing capacity. Furthermore, the inner wall of the slot 21 can be provided with a flexible, non-slip layer that secures the cable harness without damaging its outer surface through pinching and increases the friction between the cable harness and the slot 21 to prevent slippage of the cable harness during operation of the device due to vibrations or similar influences. To accommodate cable harnesses with different diameters, the slot 21 on the cable harness management plate 2 can also be customized according to the actual application scenarios. By exchanging modules of the slot 21 with different specifications, compatible mounting of multiple cable harness types is enabled, further increasing the universality and practicality of the device.The cable harness management plate 2 can be manufactured from lightweight, high-strength materials such as plastic or alloys to reduce the overall weight of the device while ensuring structural stability, thus facilitating installation and transport. It also exhibits good corrosion and wear resistance, enabling it to withstand diverse operating environments and extending the device's service life. Reinforcing ribs or other reinforcing structures can be installed between the cable harness management plate 2 and the base 1 to increase the structural stability of the cable harness management plate 2 and prevent it from tilting or shifting due to the tensile forces of the cable harness. A non-slip mat can be attached to the bottom of the base 1 to prevent the entire device from slipping during testing due to cable harness movement, thus further increasing the safety and reliability of the device during use. In the embodiments of the present application, several management plates for cable harnesses 2 are arranged on the base 1, with the two ends of the cable harnesses each being guided through corresponding slots 21 of two management plates for cable harnesses 2. This allows several cable harnesses to be arranged in the cable harness management device, with the cable harnesses running parallel to each other and not becoming tangled or crossing over. The terminals used for connection at the two ends are located on the two management plates for cable harnesses 2, which facilitates identification and organization and solves problems such as disorganized cable harness management, low efficiency, and poor reliability in battery tests.In particular, the problem of messy cable harness tangling can be solved, ensuring an organized and safe test environment; the problem of difficult cable harness identification is resolved, enabling fast and precise wiring and verification; time-consuming sorting and stowing is reduced, significantly increasing the efficiency of test preparation and follow-up; furthermore, risks from cable harness wear and connection reliability are minimized, extending the service life of test cable harnesses and ensuring signal quality. In some optional embodiments, the slot 21 also includes a clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211 and a receiving hole for cable harnesses 212, wherein the clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211 is connected to the edge of the management plate for cable harnesses 2, and wherein the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212 communicates with the clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211. The slot 21 consists of the cable harness guide slot 211 and the cable harness receiving hole 212. The cable harness receiving hole 212 serves to receive and secure the cable harness, while the cable harness guide slot 211 is used to guide the cable harness into the cable harness receiving hole 212. The cable harness guide slot 211 is connected to the edge of the cable harness management plate 2, allowing the cable harness to be inserted from the edge through the cable harness guide slot 211. The cable harness receiving hole 212 provides a stable receiving area for the cable harness and limits its movement within the slot 21. Once the cable harness has passed through the cable harness guide slot 211, it can be moved further along the cable harness guide slot 211 into the cable harness receiving hole 212.The receiving hole for cable harnesses 212 effectively prevents the cable harness from shifting in the plane perpendicular to the first direction X, thus preventing it from unintentionally falling out of the slot 21. The modular structure of the slot 21 not only facilitates quick assembly and disassembly of cable harnesses but also ensures reliable fastening of the harnesses during use. This is particularly suitable for scenarios requiring frequent replacement or adjustment of the cable harnesses. In practical application, the shape of the clamping slot for the cable harness entry 211 can be either linear or curved. A linear clamping slot for the cable harness entry 211 facilitates the insertion and removal of the cable harness, while a curved clamping slot for the cable harness entry 211 can more effectively restrict the movement of the cable harness. The shape of the receiving hole for the cable harness 212 can be round, square, triangular, or irregular. Typically, the lowest point of the receiving hole for the cable harness 212 is located vertically below the junction between the receiving hole for the cable harness 212 and the clamping slot for the cable harness entry 211. Once the cable harness has been guided through the receiving hole for the cable harness 212, it moves due to gravity to the lowest point of the receiving hole for the cable harness 212 and thus does not easily slip out of this receiving hole for the cable harness 212. Depending on the number and specifications of the cable harnesses, several independent clamping slots for cable harness feedthroughs 211, combined with receiving holes for cable harnesses 212, can be provided on the same cable harness management plate 2 to enable grouped management of multiple cable harnesses and prevent them from becoming entangled. At the same time, the edges of both the clamping slot for cable harness feedthroughs 211 and the receiving holes for cable harnesses 212 are rounded, effectively reducing abrasion of the cable harness during assembly and use, thus extending its service life. The dimensions of the cable harness mounting hole 212 can be designed according to the diameter of the cable harness. For cable harnesses with significant diameter differences, two cable harness mounting holes of different sizes can be provided on the same cable harness management plate to accommodate the fastening requirements of cable harnesses with varying specifications. Furthermore, an elastic ridge or structure can be applied to the inner wall of the cable harness mounting hole 212 to further increase friction between the cable harness and the entry point, preventing the cable harness from loosening due to vibration.A guide ramp can be attached to the connection between the clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211 and the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212, which allows the cable harness to slide more smoothly from the clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211 into the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212 and reduces the assembly resistance. Furthermore, a limiting structure can be attached to the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211. This limiting structure can consist, for example, of silicone rubber attached to the inner wall of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211, or of an opening in the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211, or of a locking element at the connection between the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 and the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212. After the cable harness has been positioned, the limiting structure restricts the movement of the cable harness to prevent unintentional slippage and thus increase reliability during operation. In some optional embodiments, there are also several receiving holes for cable harnesses 212, wherein several receiving holes for cable harnesses 212 communicate with a clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211, wherein these several receiving holes for cable harnesses 212 are arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211. A clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 can extend from the edge of the cable harness management plate 2 to its center and runs in the extension direction of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211. Several cable harness receiving holes 212 are connected side by side, with the receiving holes for cable harnesses 212 being evenly distributed on both sides of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211. This effectively utilizes the area of ​​the central region of the cable harness management plate 2, increasing the maximum number of cable harnesses that can be accommodated on a group of cable harness management plates 2. Furthermore, the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 can be arranged at various positions on the cable harness management plate 2 and extended in different directions to improve the utilization of the cable harness management plate 2. For example, the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 can be connected to the upper edge of the cable harness management plate 2 and extend vertically. The clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 can also be connected to the side edge of the cable harness management plate 2 and extend horizontally. The receiving holes for cable harnesses 212 can be distributed symmetrically on both sides of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 or arranged alternately on both sides of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211.Naturally, the clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211 can also extend diagonally or have a curved shape. In this embodiment, the specific positioning and shape of the clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211 and the receiving holes for cable harnesses 212 are not further restricted. Depending on the actual requirements, the user can place the cable harness in different receiving holes for cable harnesses 212 to flexibly adjust the mounting points of the same cable harness to different positions, thereby further optimizing the routing and arrangement of the cable harness. This prevents unnecessary bends or crossings of the cable harness due to length or positional issues and increases the adaptability and user-friendliness of the device.For example, when attaching cable harnesses at different heights or lateral positions, the corresponding mounting holes for cable harnesses 212 can be selected to ensure a more rational and orderly arrangement of the cable harness within the device. In some optional embodiments, the plug slot 21 further comprises a connecting slot 213, wherein the connecting slot 213 is connected between the clamping slot for cable harness feedthrough 211 and the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212, wherein the diameter of the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212 is larger than the width of the connecting slot 213. The connection between the clamping slot for cable harnesses 211 and the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212 is made via the connecting slot 213. The width of the connecting slot 213 is smaller than the diameter of the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212. The exact value is adjusted according to the diameter of the cable harness, so that the diameter of the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212 is adapted to the diameter of the cable harness, while the width of the connecting slot 213 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the cable harness. After the cable harness has been inserted from the cable harness entry slot 211, through the connection slot 213, into the cable harness receiving hole 212, the larger diameter of the receiving hole 212 allows the cable harness to be securely held within it. Simultaneously, the narrower connection slot 213 acts as a stop for the cable harness within the receiving hole 212, preventing it from slipping out of the receiving hole 212 into the connection slot 213 during operation due to vibrations or slight tensile forces. This significantly increases the reliability of the cable fixation. During installation, the cable harness can be easily inserted through the connection slot 213 into the receiving hole 212, and this design prevents it from unintentionally falling out during use, thus ensuring both ease of assembly and operational safety. In some further embodiments, a clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 is connected only to a receiving slot for cable harnesses, in which case the width of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 is slightly smaller than the diameter of the cable, and the diameter of the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212 is larger than the width of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211. After the cable harness has been inserted through the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 into the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212, it is difficult for the cable harness to slip out of the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212 due to the smaller width of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 compared to the diameter of the cable harness. The operator must apply a certain external force to the cable harness so that it can slide in the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211, thus preventing the cable harness from unintentionally slipping out. Optionally, the inner wall of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 is lined with silicone rubber. This creates a clamping force between the clamping slot and the cable harness, resulting in a holding effect. The cable harness cannot easily shift within the clamping slot, ensuring that it cannot be inserted or removed unintentionally. The elasticity of the silicone rubber also allows it to adapt to different cable harness diameters. When the cable harness is inserted through the clamping slot, the silicone rubber deforms elastically, tightly enclosing the harness. This ensures both the stability of the cable harness's attachment and prevents damage to the outer surface of the cable harness from crushing.It is suitable for scenarios requiring frequent plugging and unplugging. Furthermore, silicone rubber exhibits excellent aging resistance and insulating properties. It does not readily harden or crack under long-term use, thus ensuring the electrical safety of the device while maintaining its holding effect, and further improving the overall reliability and service life of cable harness management devices. In some optional embodiments, a coding slot 22 is also arranged on the management plate for cable harnesses 2, wherein the coding slot 22 is located near the plug slot 21. The coding slot 22 is a protrusion located next to the connector slot 21, designed to hold a coding label. This label numbers the various connector slots 21 and links them to the channel numbers in the data acquisition software, thus achieving a "positional match equals conductor match." In practical use, this allows each channel connection of the cable harnesses to be easily assigned. Operators no longer need to identify individual cable harnesses. If a cable harness needs to be replaced or modified, simply referring to the label information in the coding slot 22 is sufficient to quickly locate the target cable harness. This significantly reduces cable connection errors that can arise from unclear cable markings, increases connection efficiency, and thus substantially improves both the accuracy and efficiency of testing.The marking function of the coding slot 22 also facilitates subsequent maintenance and repair, as maintenance personnel can quickly locate the faulty cable harness using the label information, thus reducing the fault diagnosis time. Coding labels can take the form of color markings, numerical codes, or QR codes. Color markings allow for visual and immediate differentiation of various cable harness types, numerical codes facilitate unambiguous assignment to the channel numbers in the data acquisition software, while QR codes, when scanned, can quickly provide detailed information about the cable harness, such as connection interfaces or test parameters. It is understandable that for the slot 21, which consists of the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211 and the receiving hole for cable harnesses 212, the coding slot 22 is arranged accordingly. If two different cable harnesses for different tests are routed on the cable harness management plate, they can be grouped according to their function and the respective test project. Cable harnesses of the same type or for the same test are routed in multiple receiving holes for cable harnesses 212 of the same clamping slot for cable harness entry 211. Corresponding labels are attached to the coding slot 22 next to the clamping slot for cable harness entry 211, according to the grouping. This allows even operators unfamiliar with the test procedure to correctly connect the required cable harnesses using the information provided on the labels.This significantly reduces the training time for operators and almost completely minimizes the possibility of incorrect channel connections. In some optional embodiments, a receiving slot for terminals 23 is also arranged on the management plate for cable harnesses 2, wherein the receiving slot for terminals 23 serves to receive terminals for cable harnesses. For the cable harness management plate 2 located at both ends, a receiving slot for terminals 23 is provided on the side of the cable harness management plate 2 facing away from the other cable harness management plate 2. The shape of the receiving slot for terminals 23 is adapted to the shape of the terminals at both ends of the cable harness and serves to accommodate the connection points at both ends outside of testing times. After completion of the test or when the cable harness needs to be stored, the terminals can be disconnected from the external devices and inserted into the corresponding receiving slots for terminals 23 to prevent damage or loss due to careless placement of the terminals and at the same time to ensure the orderliness of the entire cable harness. The depth and size of the receiving slot for terminals 23 are designed according to the actual dimensions of the terminals to ensure that the terminals are firmly embedded and that any movement within the receiving slot is avoided, which could lead to collisions and damage to the terminals. For example, in the embodiment shown in Fig. 4, the cable harness terminal consists of a protective housing and the inner cable harness. The receiving slot for terminals 23 is divided into a first and a second cavity, the second cavity facilitating the passage of the cable harness and the first cavity serving for mounting the rectangular protective housing. During the non-test phase, the terminals can be placed on either side within the receiving slot for terminals 23 to provide dust protection. Simultaneously, a layer of soft material such as sponge or silicone can be applied to the inner wall of the terminal 23 slot. This acts as a buffer layer to further cushion external mechanical impacts, protect the terminal's metal contacts from wear and oxidation, and thus extend the terminal's service life. After testing, the operator simply inserts the connector into the corresponding terminal 23 slot to complete storage. No additional search for a storage location is required, reducing the risk of loss or contamination due to improper storage of the connectors. In some optional embodiments, several mounting structures 3 arranged side by side along the first direction X are also provided on the base 1, wherein the management plate for cable harnesses 2 is detachably connected to the mounting structure 3. As shown in Fig. 1, several mounting structures 3 are arranged at intervals on the base 1. The cable harness management plate 2 is detachably connected to the mounting structures 3 and can be selectively mounted on a portion of the mounting structures 3 as needed. If a larger number of cable harnesses need to be accommodated, the mounting structure 3 and the cable harness management plate 2 connected to the mounting structure 3 can be distributed in arrays to increase the capacity of the cable harness management device. The detachable connection type allows for flexible adjustment of the number of cable harness management plates (2) and the spacing between adjacent plates to meet specific requirements. For smaller numbers or shorter lengths of cables required for testing, the number of cable harness management plates can be reduced to save space. Conversely, when managing multiple long cables, the number of plates can be increased to reduce cable span and prevent permanent sagging or pulling. The spacing can also be flexibly adjusted to the actual distance between the data acquisition device and the battery module to accommodate various test station specifications and layouts. This also facilitates the separate removal and replacement of the cable harness management plates.Should a specific management plate for cable harnesses 2 be damaged or should the plug slot 21 show wear, this plate can be individually disassembled and repaired or replaced without having to replace the entire device, which reduces maintenance costs. In some optional embodiments, the mounting structure 3 further comprises a first limiting slot 31 and a support rod 34, wherein the first limiting slot 31 is arranged on the side of the base 1 facing the cable harness management plate 2, wherein the cable harness management plate 2 has a second limiting slot 35 on the side facing the base 1, wherein the two ends of the support rod 34 are arranged in the first limiting slot 31 and in the second limiting slot 35, respectively. The cable harness management plate 2 and the base 1 are connected by a support rod 34. The upper surface of the base 1 and the lower surface of the cable harness management plate 2 each have a first limiting slot 31 and a second limiting slot 35. The two ends of the support rod 34 are inserted into the first limiting slot 31 and the second limiting slot 35, respectively. This type of connection is easy to handle and disassemble. To complete the assembly of the cable harness management plate 2, simply insert one end of the support rod 34 into the first limiting slot 31 of the base 1 and align and insert the other end into the second limiting slot 35. Disassembly is performed in reverse order, without the need for additional tools, which significantly increases the efficiency of assembly and adjustment. The shape of the first limiting slot 31 and the second limiting slot 35 is adapted to the end of the support rod 34. After the end of the support rod 34 has been inserted into the slot, the horizontal movement of the support rod 34 can be limited. The height of the support rod 34 can be selected according to actual requirements. By exchanging support rods 34 of different lengths, the distance of the cable harness management plate 2 to the base 1 can be adjusted, thereby adapting the height of the cable harness to the operator's working habits or the interface positions of the test equipment. This prevents excessive bending or pulling of the cable harness due to an unsuitable height.Furthermore, the plug-in connection between the support rod 34 and the limiting slot enables a simple and quick assembly and disassembly process; it is sufficient to align and insert the two ends of the support rod 34 into the corresponding limiting slots to complete the fixation. This requires no additional tools and thus increases ease of use during fixture assembly. If the position of the cable harness management plate 2 needs to be adjusted, it is sufficient to remove the support rod 34 from the limiting slot, move the cable harness management plate 2 to the new mounting structure 3, and reinsert the support rod 34, allowing for flexible and efficient handling. If the position of the cable harness management plate 2 needs to be fixed, the position of the support rod 34 can be locked by attaching a locking element, such as a setscrew or a clip, to the contact point between the support rod 34 and the first limiting slot 31 or the second limiting slot 35, in order to prevent the cable harness management plate 2 from wobbling or coming loose under the influence of external forces. In some optional embodiments, the mounting structure 3 further comprises a first fastener, wherein a first limiting hole 32 is arranged on the base 1, the first limiting hole 32 penetrating the first limiting slot 31, the first limiting hole 32 communicating with the edge of the base 1, a second limiting hole 33 being provided on the support rod 34, the first limiting hole 32 and the second limiting hole 33 at least partially overlapping when the support rod 34 is positioned in the first limiting slot 31, and the first fastener being guided through the first limiting hole 32 and the second limiting hole 33;a second fastener, wherein a third limiting hole 36 is arranged on the cable harness management plate 2, wherein a fourth limiting hole 37 is provided on the support rod 34, wherein the third limiting hole 36 and the fourth limiting hole 37 overlap at least partially when the support rod 34 is positioned in the second limiting slot 35, and wherein the second fastener is guided through the third limiting hole 36 and the fourth limiting hole 37. As shown in Figs. 5-6, a first limiting hole 32 is provided simultaneously at the position of the first limiting slot 31 on the base 1. The first limiting hole 32 extends through the center of the first limiting slot 31 and reaches to the side face of the base 1. The first fastener can be inserted into the first limiting hole 32 from the side face. The support rod 34 has a second limiting hole 33 at one end, which is inserted into the first limiting slot 31. When the support rod 34 is inserted into the first limiting slot 31, the first fastener is guided through the first limiting hole 32 and the second limiting hole 33, thereby restricting the relative movement of the support rod 34 and the base 1 in the vertical direction and fixing the support rod 34 in the first limiting slot 31. Similarly, a third limiting hole 36 is located on the cable harness management plate 2 at the position of the second limiting slot 35, with the third limiting hole 36 passing through the second limiting slot 35. A fourth limiting hole 37 is arranged at the end of the second limiting slot 35, into which the support rod 34 is inserted. When the support rod 34 is inserted into the second limiting slot 35, the third limiting hole 36 and the fourth limiting hole 37 are aligned, after which the second fastener is inserted to lock the cable harness management plate 2 to the support rod 34 and thus prevent relative movement between the cable harness management plate 2 and the support rod 34. In this embodiment, the support rod 34 has a rectangular shape. At both ends of the support rod 34 are the second limiting hole 33 and the fourth limiting hole 37, which correspond to the first limiting holes 32 on the base 1 and the third limiting hole 36 on the cable harness management plate 2, respectively. The support rod 34 is fixed to the base 1 and the cable harness management plate 2 by the first and second fasteners, respectively. The first and second fasteners can be screws, bolts, or similar elements. In some optional embodiments, a storage slot 11 is also arranged on the base 1, the storage slot 11 serving to accommodate the management plate for cable harnesses 2. The unused cable harness management plate 2 and the support rod 34 can be stored inside the base 1. The dimensions of the storage slot 11 are designed to accommodate the cable harness management plate 2 securely. A divider can be installed inside the storage slot 11 to keep the cable harness management plates 2, support rods 34, and other components of different specifications, or damaged parts awaiting repair, separate, facilitating subsequent retrieval and management. If the number of cable harness management plates 2 needs to be increased, the operator can remove and install the replacement plates directly from the storage slot 11 without having to search for additional storage space, thus improving the ease of use of the device.Simultaneously, a dust cover or a magnetically attached cover can be attached to the opening of the storage slot 11 to prevent dust from entering the slot and contaminating the cable harness management plate 2, thus ensuring the overall cleanliness of the device. Furthermore, a cushioning material such as foam or velvet can be placed on the bottom of the storage slot 11 to prevent the cable harness management plate 2 from being scratched or structurally damaged by impacts during storage, thereby extending the device's service life. The space of the base 1 has been fully utilized, enabling organized storage and quick access to the cable harness management plate 2, further optimizing space utilization and the operational efficiency of the device. The present invention provides a modular, adjustable management device for cable harnesses. By arranging a cable harness management plate with plug slots, several dozen cables are forcibly separated and arranged in parallel, thus fundamentally preventing tangling and crossing of the cable harnesses, ensuring a tidy and clear test environment. Permanent, unique physical markings are applied to the cable harness management plate, which are linked to the channel numbers of the acquisition software, thereby achieving a "positional match equals conductor match." Operators no longer need to identify individual cables, virtually eliminating the possibility of incorrect channel connections, resulting in a significant increase in connection efficiency and preventing incorrect connections.After testing is complete, simply return the clamps and test clamps to their designated positions on the board and insert the harnesses into the slots to ensure immediate return and complete transfer of all cable strands, thus reducing tidying time. Storage and organization are user-friendly; the slots and clamp receptacles on the harness management board protect the harnesses and clamps, thereby increasing test reliability. This prevents clamps and test clamps from being stacked haphazardly or damaged by collisions. The harnesses are stored neatly on the harness management board, reducing internal damage from being stepped on, pulled, or bent. Clear labeling also reduces the frequency of repeated plugging and unplugging for verification.Overall, this significantly extends the lifespan of the test harnesses and ensures the long-term stability of the signal connection. A modular mounting system is used between the harness management plate and the base, allowing for flexible adjustment of the spacing between the harness management plates and the device itself. This adjustment is based on the actual distance between the data acquisition device and the battery module, enabling adaptation to test stations and layouts of varying specifications. Unused harness management plates can be inserted into the storage slot in the base to prevent loss or damage.
