The spacer 310 is engaged with the base 10 via the engaging groove 313 a of the extension portion 313, and the details thereof will be further described later.

Each of the two pivoting members 320 includes a wire fixing portion 321, a pivoting portion 322, and a buckling portion 323, and the wire fixing portion 321 is interposed between the pivoting portion 322 and the buckling portion 323. The wire fixing portion 321 has a second protrusion 321 a on a side close to the wire supporting surface 311 a of the partition portion 311. The pivoting portion 322 is pivotally disposed on the partitioning portion 311, so that the pivoting member 320 can be pivoted relative to the partitioning member 310. The latching portion 323 corresponds to the latching structure 312 of the partition 310.

The pivoting member 320 is rotatable relative to the partition member 310 and has a releasing position and a clamping position. FIG. 4 is a schematic side view of the pivoting member of the cable management module of the storage rack of FIG. 1 in a released position. FIG. 5 is a schematic side view of the pivoting member of the cable management module of the storage rack of FIG. 1 in a clamped position. FIG. 6 is a partially enlarged schematic view of the cable management module of FIG. 5. Referring to FIG. 4, when the pivoting member 320 is in the release position, the wire fixing portion 321 and the wire supporting surface 311 a are separated from each other. 3, 5 and 6, when the pivoting member 320 is in the clamping position, the wire fixing portion 321 covers part of the wire supporting surface 311a, and a wire fixing space is formed between the wire fixing portion 321 and the wire supporting surface 311a. S. The first protrusions 311c of the partition member 310 and the second protrusions 321a of the pivot member 320 are located in the wire fixing space S, and the first protrusions 311c and the second protrusions 321a are staggered along the extension direction A1 of the wire support surface 311a. In detail, the first protrusion 311c may be projected to the right side of the second protrusion 321a along the extension direction A1 of the wire support surface 311a, and the second protrusion 321a may be projected to the first direction along the extension direction A1 of the wire support surface 311a. A left side surface of a protrusion 311c.

The partition member 310 and the pivot member 320 can be used together to organize and store the wire 99. As shown in FIG. 4, when the pivoting member 320 is in the release position, the wire 99 can be placed on the wire support surface 311 a. The wire 99 is, for example, but not limited to, a charging cable capable of charging a portable electronic device stored in the storage rack 1. After the wire 99 is placed on the wire support surface 311a, the pivoting member 320 can be rotated to move the self-releasing position to the clamping position. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, when the pivoting member 320 is in the clamping position, the wire fixing portion 321 of the pivoting member 320 approaches the partition portion 311 and covers a part of the wire supporting surface 311 a to form a wire fixing space S. At this time, a part of the wire rod 99 is located in the wire rod fixing space S and is clamped together by the wire rod fixing portion 321 and the first protrusion 311 c of the partition portion 311. In addition, the buckling portion 323 of the pivoting member 320 can be flexed to buckle to the buckling structure 312 of the partition 310, and after the buckling portion 323 is buckled to the buckling structure 312, the unflexed buckling portion 323 The latching portion 323 and the latching structure 312 interfere with each other between the latching structure 312 and the partitioning portion 311, so that the pivoting member 320 can be maintained at a clamping position.

When the wire 99 is to be released, the pivoting member 320 is moved from the clamping position to the releasing position. At this time, the wire fixing portion 321 of the pivoting member 320 is away from the wire supporting surface 311a, so that the wire 99 can be moved relative to the partition member 310, so that the length of the wire 99 can be adjusted or the wire 99 can be removed.

In the existing cable management module of the storage rack, the fixing structure used to maintain the pivoting member in the clamping position is respectively disposed on the inner side wall of the pivoting member and the side of the partition member, which makes the cable management module in the When designing to meet the requirements of thinning partitions, the fixing strength of the fixed structure is insufficient, and the pivoting part is easy to leave the clamping position due to external force interference. For example, when the clamped wire is pulled, the pivoting member may be disengaged from the clamped position. In order to solve the above problem, the buckling structure 312 of this embodiment is located above the partition 311, and the buckling portion 323 of the pivoting member 320 can be buckled to the buckling structure 312 of the partition 310 so that the buckling portion 323 is between Between the latching structure 312 and the partition 310, the pivoting member 320 can be maintained at the clamping position. Thereby, the fixing structure 312 and the locking portion 323 can have sufficient fixing strength, which helps prevent the pivoting member 320 from being disengaged from the clamping position due to external force interference.

In the existing cable management module of the storage rack, the strength of the cable clamped by the pivoting member and the partition member is not sufficient. Therefore, even when the pivoting member is located at the clamping position, the cable will still slide relative to the cable manager module when being strongly pulled. In order to solve the above problems, when the pivoting member 320 in this embodiment is in the release position, the first protrusion 311c of the partition member 310 and the second protrusion 321a of the pivoting member 320 are located in the wire fixing space S and along the wire supporting surface 311a. The extending direction A1 is staggered. As a result, the wire 99 accommodated in the wire fixing space S is bent once in the gap G1 between the first protrusion 311c and the wire fixing portion 321, and the gap G2 between the second protrusion 321a and the partition portion 311 is generated. Another bending makes the wave-shaped wire material 99 interfere with the cable management module 30 and is difficult to slide.

The existing cable management module of the storage rack is only suitable for clamping a wire with a single wire diameter, so the universality is not good. In order to improve the shortcomings of the existing cable management module, the partition 311 of the cable management module 30 of this embodiment has a yielding recess 311b located on the wire support surface 311a, and the wire fixing portion 321 of the pivoting member 320 has a yielding perforation. 321b. When the pivoting member 320 is in the clamping position, part of the wire fixing space S is formed by the way-recessing recess 311b and the wire fixing portion 321, and the second protrusion 321a of the pivoting member 320 is exposed from the way-through hole 321b, and the first The two protrusions 321a correspond to the yielding recesses 311b. In the present embodiment, the gap G1 between the first protrusion 311c and the wire fixing portion 321 and the gap G2 between the second protrusion 321a and the partition portion 311 are not equal by disposing the recess 311b. Further, in this embodiment, the gap G2 is made larger than the gap G1 by disposing the recess 311b, so that the wire management module 30 is suitable for clamping wires with different wire diameters.

Please refer to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 together. FIG. 7 is a partially enlarged schematic view of the cable management module of FIG. 5 clamping a wire with a larger wire diameter. As shown in FIG. 6, when the wire management module 30 clamps the thin wire 99, the gap G1 between the first protrusion 311 c and the wire fixing portion 321 matches the wire diameter of the wire 99, so the wire 99 is held by the wire fixing portion. 321 and the first protrusion 311 c of the partition portion 311 are clamped together. A gap G2 between the second protrusion 321a and the partition portion 311 may be larger than a wire diameter of the wire 99. As shown in FIG. 7, when the wire management module 30 clamps a relatively thick wire 99 ″, the gap G2 between the second protrusion 321 a and the partition 311 matches the wire diameter of the wire 99 ″, so the wire 99 is The protrusion 321a and the partition portion 311 are clamped together. The gap G1 between the first protrusion 311c and the wire fixing portion 321 is smaller than the wire diameter of the wire 99 ". Therefore, while the wire 99" is clamped by the wire fixing portion 321 and the first protrusion 311c, part of the wire 99 "will give way. The perforation 321b prevents the first protrusion 311c and the wire fixing portion 321 from excessively pressing the wire 99 ".

In addition, as shown in FIG. 5, in this embodiment, the wire support surface 311 a of the partition 311 has a first support surface section 3111 and a second support surface section 3112. The extending direction A1 of the first supporting surface segment 3111 and the extending direction A2 of the second supporting surface segment 3112 are at a non-horizontal angle. Further, the extending directions A1 and A2 of this embodiment form an obtuse angle. In the clamped position, the two pivoting members 320 cover the first support surface section 3111 and the second support surface section 3112, respectively. One of the pivot members 320 and the first support surface section 3111 forms a wire fixing space S, and the other of the pivot members 320 and the second support surface section 3112 forms a wire fixing space S. Thereby, the first support surface section 3111 and the second support surface section 3112 with a non-horizontal angle can moderately bend the wire 99 placed on the wire support surface 311a. Therefore, when the wire 99 is pulled with an external force parallel to the extending direction A1 In addition, only a small component force can effectively pull a portion of the wire 99 placed on the second support surface section 3112, which helps to further prevent the wire 99 from sliding relative to the cable management module 30 when being pulled strongly.

The cable management module 30 is detachably disposed on the base 10 and the side plate 20. Please refer to FIGS. 1, 8 and 9 together. FIG. 8 is a schematic side view of the storage rack of FIG. 1. FIG. 9 is a schematic side view of the cable management module of the storage rack of FIG. 8 being removed. When the storage rack 1 is assembled, the partition portion 311 of the partition member 310 of the cable management module 30 is inserted into the through hole 210 of the side plate 20. The extension portion 313 of the partition member 310 is inserted into the long hole 110 of the base 10, and the engaging groove 313 a of the extension portion 313 faces the side edge 120 of the base 10 forming the long hole 110. The width of the engaging groove 313 a is exactly equal to the thickness T of the base 10. Therefore, the engaging groove 313 a of the extension portion 313 can be engaged with the side edge 120. In other embodiments, the width of the engaging groove 313 a is greater than the thickness T of the base 10. At this time, the engaging groove 313 a can also be engaged with the side edge 120.

When the cable management module 30 is to be disassembled, the holding portion 314 is pulled to drive the extension portion 313 to move relative to the partition portion 311, so that the engaging groove 313 a is separated from the side edge 120. At this time, the partition portion 311 can be moved away from the long hole 110 and the through hole 210 to detach the cable management module 30 from the base 10 and the side plate 20.

The buckle structure of the cable management module is not limited to the aspect of the first embodiment. 10 is a partially enlarged schematic diagram of a cable management module of a storage rack according to a second embodiment of the present invention. Since this embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, only the differences will be described below. Compared with the first embodiment, the latching portion 323 of the pivoting member 320 and the latching structure 312 of the partitioning member 310 in this embodiment are located farther away from the pivoting portion 322 of the pivoting member 320.

The storage rack disclosed in the present invention can be applied to a charging device. Please refer to FIG. 11, which is a schematic perspective view of a charging device according to a third embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the charging device 2 includes a casing 21, a power supply 22, a plurality of wires 99, and the storage rack 1 disclosed in the first embodiment. The charging device 2 is, for example, but not limited to, a charging cabinet, and the casing 21 is, for example, a cabinet of the charging device 2. The power supply 22 is provided on the casing 21. The wire 99 is, for example, a wire for charging the portable electronic device of the charging device 2, one end of which is electrically connected to the power supply 22, and the other end is suitable for being inserted into the charging hole of the portable electronic device (not Drawing). The storage rack 1 is disposed in the casing 21.

In summary, in the storage rack and the charging device disclosed in the present invention, when the pivoting member is in the clamping position, the buckling portion of the pivoting member is locked to the buckling structure of the partition member and interposed between the buckling structure And the partition, the pivoting member can be maintained at the clamping position. Thereby, there is sufficient fixing strength between the buckle structure and the buckle portion to prevent the pivoting member from being disengaged from the clamping position due to external force interference.

In addition, when the pivoting member is in the release position, the first protrusions of the partition member and the second protrusions of the pivoting member are located in the wire fixing space and are staggered along the extending direction of the wire supporting surface. Therefore, when the wire is accommodated in the wire fixing space, the wire is bent once in the gap between the first protrusion and the wire fixing portion, and another gap is caused in the gap between the second protrusion and the partition, so that The wave-shaped wire can interfere with the cable management module and cannot slide easily.
