Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a safety support for a cable drum for stably fixing and supporting the cable drum. Background Technology

[0002] A cable drum is an essential device used to wind, store, or transport various types of cables, such as electrical wires, fiber optic cables, and communication cables. Cable drums typically have a cylindrical structure and are designed to protect cables and allow them to be easily unwound and used at the installation site.

[0003] Generally, a cable drum consists of flanges made of circular plates forming both ends of the drum, a drum core located between the flanges which is a cylindrical part for winding the cable, and a hub located at the center of the drum core which forms an axis for rotating the drum.

[0004] The flange is a circular plate that provides structural strength to the drum and prevents the cable wound around the drum core from coming out to the side.

[0005] If these cable drums are stored standing upright instead of lying down, accidents may occur as they roll due to their cylindrical structural shape. To prevent such safety accidents, they must be stored lying down or require a separate mounting device. Prior art literature

[0006] Registered Patent Publication No. 10-1685938 (Date of publication: Dec. 14, 2016) The problem to be solved

[0007] The present invention aims to improve upon the problems of the prior art by providing a safety support for a cable drum that stably secures the cable drum when it is positioned upright and is convenient for use and portability. means of solving the problem

[0008] A cable drum safety support according to one embodiment of the present invention for achieving such an objective comprises: a support block including a bottom portion forming a bottom surface and an inclined portion formed integrally with the bottom portion at a certain incline and facing the flange of the cable drum; and a fixing clip provided on the inclined portion and elastically fitted and fixed to the flange of the cable drum.

[0009] Preferably, the fixing clip comprises a fixing plate fixed in contact with the slope portion; a pair of first elastic plates formed by bending at both sides of the fixing plate; and a second elastic plate formed by bending so as to extend from each of the first elastic plates to form a catch portion.

[0010] Preferably, the support block includes a side portion that integrally connects the bottom portion and the slope portion, and further includes a gripping handle provided on the side portion. Effects of the invention

[0011] The cable drum safety support of the present invention comprises a support block including a bottom portion forming a bottom surface and an inclined portion formed integrally with the bottom portion at a certain incline and facing the flange of the cable drum; and a fixing clip provided on the inclined portion and elastically fitted and fixed to the flange of the cable drum, thereby having the effect of stably fixing the cable drum when the cable drum is positioned upright to prevent safety accidents. Brief explanation of the drawing

Figures 2(a), (b), and (c) are plan, front, and side configurations of a fixing clip of a cable drum safety support according to an embodiment of the present invention, respectively. Figure 3 is a photograph showing an example of use of a cable drum safety support according to an embodiment of the present invention. Specific details for implementing the invention

[0013] The specific structural or functional descriptions presented in the embodiments of the present invention are merely illustrative for the purpose of explaining embodiments according to the concept of the present invention, and embodiments according to the concept of the present invention may be implemented in various forms. Furthermore, it should not be interpreted as being limited to the embodiments described herein, but should be understood to include all modifications, equivalents, and substitutions that fall within the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0014] Specific embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the attached drawings.

[0015] FIG. 1 is a front view of a cable drum safety support according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 (a), (b), and (c) are plan, front, and side views of a fixing clip of a cable drum safety support according to an embodiment of the present invention, respectively.

[0016] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, the cable drum safety support (100) (hereinafter also abbreviated as "support") of an embodiment of the present invention includes a support block (110) and a fixing clip (120).

[0017] The support block (110) includes a bottom portion (111) forming a bottom surface and a slope portion (112) formed integrally with the bottom portion (111) with a certain slope, and preferably includes a side portion (113) that integrally connects the bottom portion (111) and the slope portion (112). The bottom portion (111) provides frictional force between the support and the floor, and depending on the material of the support block (110), a separate friction pad (not shown) may be attached to the bottom portion (111). The support block (110) may be provided by a single block structure, and may be, for example, a block made of rubber material, but is not limited thereto.

[0018] A fixing clip (120) is provided on the slope portion (112) and elastically fitted and fixed to the flange of the cable drum.

[0019] Preferably, the fixing clip (120) includes a fixing plate (121) that comes into contact with the slope portion (112), a pair of first elastic plates (122) that are bent and formed on both sides of the fixing plate (121), and a second elastic plate (123) that is bent and formed to extend from each of the first elastic plates (122) to form a catch portion (124). In this embodiment, the fixing plate (121) is exemplified by having a plurality of assembly holes (121a) provided so that it is screw-assembled with the slope portion (112) through the assembly holes (121a). Meanwhile, within the range in which the fixing plate (121) can be firmly fixed to the support block (110), other well-known assembly methods, such as a male-female fitting assembly rather than a screw assembly, may be used for the fixing plate (121) and the support block (110).

[0020] Preferably, the support block (110) includes a side portion (113) that integrally connects the bottom portion (111) and the slope portion (112), and a gripping handle (130) may be provided on the side portion (113). The operator can easily secure the cable drum by lifting the support (100) using the gripping handle (130).

[0021] FIG. 3 is a photograph showing an example of use of a cable drum safety support according to an embodiment of the present invention. By attaching a fixing clip (120) to the flange (11) of the cable drum (10) while the cable drum (10) is standing upright in a workplace and fixing the support (100) to the floor, the cable drum (10) can be stably fixed, thereby preventing safety accidents.

[0022] The present invention described above is not limited by the aforementioned embodiments and attached drawings, and it will be obvious to those skilled in the art that various substitutions, modifications, and changes are possible within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention.
