Detailed description of the invention

The object of the invention relates to a cable carrier intended to contain and supply the cables (1) intended for mounting electrical installations or other similar ones, including in a common assembly a support housing (2) that facilitates manipulations and positioning of the cable carrier, and a reel (3) in which the application cable (1).

The support housing (2) determines a structure fixed, comprising two side walls (2.1) correspondingly facing each other, which are rectangular in shape with some arched recesses in the middle area of the edges, joining said side walls (2.1) through the vertices, by means of an upper front crossbar (4), a front crossbar lower (5) and two rear crossbars (6) one upper and the other lower.

The reel (3) determines in its case a adaptable structure in the width of the reel (3) and in the diameter of the core, comprising two lateral discs (3.1), which are join by means of a central axis (7), being incorporated on said lateral discs (3.1) stems (8) perpendicular to the interior, which are arranged in a distribution cylindrical forming the core of the reel (3).

The central axis (7) has an oval section and passes through holes (9) correspondingly that they present in the center the lateral discs (3.1), fitting the ends thereof in slots (10) that have on the face inside the side walls (2.1) of the support housing (2), of so that the reel assembly (3) in said support housing (2) is performed by sliding insertion of shaft ends central (7) through the mentioned grooves (10) of the walls lateral (2.1).

Said central axis (7) of the reel (3) has a distribution of transverse grooves in areas of greater diameter of its section, said slot grooves serving an element retention (11) that is arranged on the outside of the lateral discs (3.1) and that can be rotated between a position of fit into those grooves of the central shaft (7) and a position of release of said fitting, having a catch formed by a ball (12) and a push spring (13), for locking in position of lace.

In this way, releasing the lace of the retaining elements (11) on the central axis (7), the discs laterals (3.1) can be moved axially on said axis center (7), to fix them in any desired position by means of the aforementioned retention elements (11), allowing thus selectively varying the width of the reel (3) without altering the formation of the support housing (2) or the reel assembly (3) in she.

The stems (8) are arranged where appropriate in slots (14) that the lateral discs (3.1) have radially, passing said stems through said grooves (14) towards the outside, where they fit into a spiral groove of a disk (15) swivel that is incorporated in the outer part of the lateral disk (3.1) corresponding, so that by rotating the disk (15) the displacement of the stems (8) through the grooves is determined (14) respectively, in the corresponding lateral disk (3.1), thus allowing selectively regulating the diameter of the core of the reel (3), only by rotating the discs (15).

Therefore, without altering the formation Structural of the cable holder and without changing any element of said structural formation, can be adapted in each cable reel the reel (3), both in width and in the core diameter, according to the cable (1) to be incorporated in each case.

One of the training crossbars structural support housing (2), for example the crossbar upper front (4), is provided with a longitudinal recess (16) opened by a generatrix, in which are arranged embedded straps (17) that press on the reel core (3), so that said straps (17) keep the cable (1) rolled up without that is unwound, however allowing cable removal (1) pulling him.

As seen in figure 6, the strips (17) determine a conformation (18) in the form of an elastic fold, by which they fit with pressure in the mounting hole (16), thus maintaining said strips (17) fixed in the position that arrange, but the mounting pressure can be loosened simply forcing the conformation in diameter reduction (18), to displace those strips (17) in combination with the regulation, of the width of the reel (3).

The side walls (2.1) of the housing support (2) have holes (19) in areas that are not correspond to the reel (3), so that through said holes (19) can be joined by screws, successive cable glands in lateral coupling, as seen in Figure 8, to form multiple cable glands.

Said side walls (2.1) of the housing support (2), also determine at the upper edge and at the edge lower, staggered (20) reciprocals, by means of which you can fit one cable holder into a socket on another, allowing to arrange multiple cable management devices in vertical stacking and side coupling, as seen in the Figure 9, containing a plurality of cables (1) that can be Same or different.

All crossbars (4, 5 and 6) of the housing support (2), longitudinally determine a step (21) in shape wedge, those of the lower part on the lower face and those of the upper part on the upper face, so that in the stacking from one cable holder over another the matching crossbars they are assembled together by means of said step (21), thus determining an exact positioning between the devices stacked cable holders and a retaining retention between same.

In addition, the crossbars (4 and 5) of the part front of the support housing (2), are provided in the area half with a recess (22) in the shape of a dovetail, going in the recess (22) of the lower front cross member (5) a wedge (23) mobile that can be placed in two positions determined by lock fasteners (24) operable by means of a push button (25), of so that by means of said wedge (23) a retaining coupling between the upper front cross member (4) of a cable holder and the lower front cross member (5) of another cable management device arranged above, to ensure the mounting coupling between them.

Said embodiment is not limiting, since with the same functional effect and without the concept of the invention being alter, may be the crossbars (6) of the back of the support housing (2) those with the recess (22) in the form of dovetail, and similarly the mobile wedge (23) can be in the upper crossbar instead of the lower crossbar.

Between the side walls (2.1) of the housing support (2), preferably at the bottom rear, goes pivoted mounting included a rolling element (26), which is likely to be tilted between a collected position inoperative, as seen in the support housing of the part left of figure 8, and an outwardly folded position, as seen in the support housing on the right side of the same figure 8, so that in this position down towards the outside, said rolling element (26) allows displacement of the cable holder in rolling support as a wheelbarrow.

In the case of cable management devices multiple, positioning of all or some rolling elements (26) in the outward position, it also allows displacement of the multiple cable holder in support of rolling like a wheelbarrow.
