Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing cable wall lead-through systems require significant installation effort and do not provide a secure and sealed passage for multiple cables effectively.
Innovation Solution
A cable wall lead-through arrangement with a receptacle frame integrally formed on the wall portion, sealing elements, and a cover component, which reduces installation effort and ensures a secure, sealed passage for multiple cables.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If conventional cable wall lead-through systems are used, then cable passage is achieved, but installation effort is significant and sealing reliability is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The patent combines the receptacle frame, sealing elements, and cover component into an integrated cable wall lead-through assembly. The receptacle frame is integrally formed on the wall portion, and the cover component is installed to secure the sealing elements in place, creating a unified structure that simultaneously provides mechanical support and sealing functionality, thereby reducing installation effort while enhancing sealing reliability
Solution Approach 2:
The receptacle frame is pre-formed on the wall portion before cable installation. The sealing elements are pre-positioned within the receptacle frame, and the cover component is designed to be installed in a securing manner to fix the sealing elements. This preliminary preparation of the sealing structure eliminates the need for complex on-site assembly, reducing installation effort while ensuring proper sealing from the outset
2Manufacturing precision
If multiple cables are led through the wall opening, then cable connectivity is achieved, but positioning accuracy and sealing effectiveness deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The cable wall lead-through structure is segmented into distinct functional components: the receptacle frame that provides structural support and cable guidance, the sealing elements that provide individual sealed passages for each cable, and the cover component that secures the assembly. This segmentation allows each component to be optimized for its specific function, ensuring precise cable positioning and effective sealing while maintaining manageable structural complexity
Solution Approach 2:
The sealing elements are individually positioned within the receptacle frame to provide localized sealed passages for each cable. Each sealing element can be tailored to the specific cable it seals, ensuring optimal sealing effectiveness and positioning accuracy for multiple cables of different sizes and types without requiring a completely different structure for each cable
