S. The first protrusion 311c of the spacer 310 and the second protrusion 321a of the pivoting member 320 are located in the wire fixing space S, and the first protrusion 311c and the second protrusion 321a are staggered along the extending direction A1 of the wire supporting surface 311a. In detail, the first protrusion 311c may be projected to the right side surface of the second protrusion 321a along the extending direction A1 of the wire supporting surface 311a, and the second protrusion 321a may also be projected to the first direction along the extending direction A1 of the wire supporting surface 311a. The left side of a protrusion 311c.

The spacer 310 and the pivoting member 320 are used in combination to be able to organize and house 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 supporting surface 311a. The wire 99 is, for example but not limited to, a charging wire that can charge a portable electronic device housed in the storage rack 1. After the wire 99 is placed on the wire supporting surface 311a, the pivoting member 320 can be rotated to move from the release 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 portion of the wire supporting surface 311a to form a wire fixing space S. At this time, the partial wire 99 is located in the wire fixing space S and is sandwiched by the wire fixing portion 321 and the first protrusion 311c of the partition 311. In addition, the latching portion 323 of the pivoting member 320 can be flexed to be buckled to the latching structure 312 of the partitioning member 310, and after the latching portion 323 is buckled to the latching structure 312, the undeflected latching portion 323 Between the buckle structure 312 and the partition 311, the latching portion 323 and the latching structure 312 interfere with each other, thereby maintaining the pivoting member 320 in the clamping position.

When the wire 99 is to be released, the pivoting member 320 is moved from the clamping position to the released 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 partitioning member 310, and the length of the wire 99 can be adjusted, or the wire 99 can be removed.

In the cable management module of the existing storage rack, the fixing structure for maintaining the pivoting member in the clamping position is respectively disposed on the inner side wall of the pivoting member and the side of the partitioning member, so that the cable management module is When the design meets the requirements of the thinned separator, the fixing strength of the fixed structure is insufficient, and the pivoting member is easily separated from the clamping position due to external force interference. For example, when the clamped wire is pulled, it may cause the pivoting member to disengage from the clamping position. In order to solve the above problem, the buckle structure 312 of the embodiment is located above the partitioning portion 311, and the latching portion 323 of the pivoting member 320 can be snapped to the latching structure 312 of the partitioning member 310 so that the latching portion 323 is interposed. The buckle structure 312 and the partition portion 310 can further maintain the pivoting member 320 in the clamping position. Thereby, the buckle structure 312 and the buckle portion 323 can have sufficient fixing strength to help prevent the pivoting member 320 from being disengaged from the clamping position due to external force interference.

In the cable management module of the existing storage rack, the strength of the pivoting member and the spacer clamping wire is insufficient, so even if the pivoting member is in the clamping position, the wire will slide relative to the cable management module when the wire is pulled vigorously. In order to solve the above problem, when the pivoting member 320 in the present embodiment is in the releasing position, the first protrusion 311c of the partitioning 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. Thereby, the wire 99 accommodated in the wire fixing space S is once bent 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 311 is generated. The other bending causes the wire 99 bent into a wave shape to interfere with the cable management module 30 and is not easy to slide.

The cable management module of the existing storage rack is only suitable for clamping a single wire diameter wire, and thus the versatility is not good. In order to improve the disadvantages of the existing cable management module, the partitioning portion 311 of the cable management module 30 of the present embodiment has a recessing recess 311b on the wire supporting surface 311a, and the wire fixing portion 321 of the pivoting member 320 has a perforation. 321b. When the pivoting member 320 is in the clamping position, the partial wire fixing space S is formed by the retaining recess 311b and the wire fixing portion 321, and the second protrusion 321a of the pivoting member 320 is exposed from the letting hole 321b, and The two protrusions 321a correspond to the 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 made unequal by the placement recess 311b. Further, in this embodiment, the gap G2 is made larger than the gap G1 by arranging the recess 311b, whereby the cable management module 30 is adapted to clamp wires having different wire diameters.

Please refer to FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 together. FIG. 7 is a partially enlarged schematic view showing the wire of the larger wire diameter of the cable management module of FIG. 5 . As shown in FIG. 6, when the cable management module 30 clamps the thin wire 99, the gap G1 between the first protrusion 311c and the wire fixing portion 321 matches the wire diameter of the wire 99, so the wire 99 is fixed by the wire. The first protrusion 311c of the partition portion 311 and the partition portion 311 are sandwiched together. The gap G2 between the second protrusion 321a and the partition 311 may be larger than the wire diameter of the wire 99. As shown in FIG. 7, when the cable management module 30 clamps the thick wire 99", the gap G2 between the second protrusion 321a and the partition 311 matches the wire diameter of the wire 99", so the wire 99 is second. The protrusion 321a and the partition 311 are sandwiched 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", so that the wire 99" is sandwiched by the wire fixing portion 321 and the first protrusion 311c, the partial wire 99" is located at the position The inside of the through hole 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 the present embodiment, the wire supporting surface 311a of the partitioning portion 311 has a first supporting surface section 3111 and a second supporting surface section 3112. The extending direction A1 of the first supporting surface section 3111 and the extending direction A2 of the second supporting surface section 3112 are not at a horizontal angle. Further, the extending directions A1 and A2 of the present embodiment have an obtuse angle. In the clamping position, the two pivoting members 320 cover the first supporting surface section 3111 and the second supporting surface section 3112, respectively. A wire fixing space S is formed between one of the pivoting members 320 and the first supporting surface section 3111, and a wire fixing space S is formed between the other pivoting member 320 and the second supporting surface section 3112. Thereby, the first supporting surface section 3111 and the second supporting surface section 3112 sandwiching the non-horizontal angle allow the wire 99 placed on the wire supporting surface 311a to be moderately bent, so that when the wire 99 is pulled by an external force parallel to the extending direction A1, In addition, only a small component force can effectively pull a part of the wire 99 placed on the second supporting surface section 3112, which helps to further prevent the wire 99 from sliding relative to the cable management module 30 when pulled strongly.

The cable management module 30 is detachably disposed on the base 10 and the side plate 20. Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 together.

When the storage rack 1 is assembled, the partitioning portion 311 of the partitioning member 310 of the cable management module 30 is inserted into the through hole 210 of the side panel 20. The extension portion 313 of the partition member 310 is inserted into the elongated hole 110 of the base 10, and the engagement groove 313a of the extension portion 313 faces the one side edge 120 of the base 10 forming the elongated hole 110. The width of the engaging groove 313a is exactly equal to the thickness T of the base 10, so that the engaging groove 313a of the extending portion 313 can be engaged with the side edge 120. In other embodiments, the width of the engaging groove 313a is greater than the thickness T of the base 10, and the engaging groove 313a can also be engaged with the side edge 120.

When the cable management module 30 is to be removed, the grip portion 314 is pulled to move the extension portion 313 and move relative to the partition portion 311 such that the engagement groove 313a is separated from the side edge 120. At this time, the movable partition portion 311 is disengaged from the long hole 110 and the through hole 210, and the cable management module 30 is detached 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. FIG. 10 is a partially enlarged schematic view 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, the following description will be made only on the difference. Compared with the first embodiment, the locking portion 323 of the pivoting member 320 of the embodiment and the locking structure 312 of the partitioning member 310 are located away from the pivoting portion 322 of the pivoting member 320.
