BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a cable connecting and fixing structure and a method for arranging the cable connecting and fixing structure thereof, and particularly relates to a cable connecting and fixing structure which is assembled to a shell and then bonded, and a method for arranging the cable connecting and fixing structure.

2. Description of the Related Art

In terms of current technology, cable connection for electronic devices is already a common technology. There are tensile strength requirements for exposed cables assembled on shells of the electronic devices, so conventional methods of fixing cable connecting and fixing structures to the shells are generally to design a dispensing structure corresponding to the tensile direction to strengthen the rear ends of the cables on the shells of the electronic devices, thus resisting reverse pulling forces of the cables, or to design a multi-layer clamping structure to clamp the cable connecting and fixing structures.

FIG.1A-1Cis an assembly schematic diagram of a cable connecting and fixing structure in prior art.

Firstly, as shown inFIG.1A, a cable connecting and fixing structure90includes a cable body91and a protective structure92. The protective structure92is fixedly arranged on the outer side of the cable body91. The outer side of the protective structure92may also be provided with a clamping part93so that an outer shell80may be clamped into the clamping part93. Finally, the cable body91, the protective structure92and the outer shell80are simultaneously bonded by a bonding material94. Therefore, the mode of assembling the cable connecting and fixing structure90to the outer shell80in the prior art is relatively complex, and the outer shell80is also bonded, so it is needed to particularly consider the shape of the bonding part of the outer shell80and the cable connecting and fixing structure90because these factors may lead to the increase of the cost.

Therefore, it is necessary to invent a novel cable connecting and fixing structure and a method for arranging the cable connecting and fixing structure to solve the defects in the prior art.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

To make the review committee better understand the technical content of the present invention, a preferred specific embodiment is provided as follows.

FIG.2A-2Cis an assembly schematic diagram of a cable connecting and fixing structure according to the present invention.

A cable connecting and fixing structure1according to the present invention includes a cable body10, a protective structure20and a bonding material30. The type of the cable body10is not limited in the present invention. The protective structure20may be made of a rubber material and sleeves an outer layer of the cable body10, as shown inFIG.2A. An outer shell2is provided with a fixed connection hole2a; and with the cooperation of the aperture of the fixed connection hole2aand the shape of the protective structure20, the cable body10can pass through the fixed connection hole2auntil the outer shell2is clamped and fixed into a clamping part21of the protective structure20. The middle of the clamping part21is provided with a recess211, two sides of the recess211are provided with structures having height difference, and the side, with a lower structure, of the clamping part21is provided with an inclined plane212. The outer shell2moves to the recess211of the clamping part21along the inclined plane212, and the protective structure20is not prone to being disengaged from the outer shell2by means of the shape of the recess211, as shown inFIG.2B.

A groove22is formed in the contact surface of the protective structure20and the cable body10. After the outer shell2is assembled on the protective structure20, the groove22is filled with the bonding material30, thus the protective structure20and the cable body10are bonded, and a hard tensile structure will be formed around the protective structure20, as shown inFIG.2C. The bonding material30may be a curing adhesive, such as epoxy resin, which is not limited in the present invention. The hardness of the cured bonding material30is greater than that of the protective structure20. Therefore, after the protective structure20and the cable body10are fixedly bonded and strengthened, the cable connecting and fixing structure1can be prevented from being randomly separated from the outer shell2.

FIG.3is a step flowchart of a method for arranging a cable connecting and fixing structure according to the present invention. It is to be noted that although the method for arranging the cable connecting and fixing structure according to the present invention is illustrated by the cable connecting and fixing structure1, the method for arranging the cable connecting and fixing structure according to the present invention is not limited to the use of the cable connecting and fixing structure1with the same structure.

Firstly, step301: provide the cable body and the protective structure.

The cable body10and the protective structure20are provided. The protective structure20may be made of rubber and is provided with the clamping part21and the groove22.

Secondly, step302: sleeve the cable body with the protective structure.

The protective structure20sleeves the outer side of the cable body10.

Then, step303: enable the cable body to pass through the fixed connection hole until the outer shell is clamped and fixed in the clamping part of the protective structure.

The cable body10passes through the fixed connection hole2a, and the outer shell2moves to the recess211of the clamping part21along the inclined plane212outside the clamping part21so as to be clamped in the clamping part21of the protective structure20.

Finally, step304: cure the bonding material to bond and strength the protective structure and the cable body.

At the moment, after the outer shell2is clamped and fixed in the clamping part21of the protective structure20, the groove22of the protective structure20is filled with the bonding material30. After the bonding material30is cured, the cable body10and the protective structure20may be bonded and strengthened, then a hard tensile structure will be formed around the protective structure20, and the hardness of the cured bonding material30is greater than that of the protective structure20. Therefore, the outer shell2is not prone to being disengaged from the protective structure20, and the purpose of fixing the cable connecting and fixing structure1is achieved.

It is to be noted that the method for arranging the cable connecting and fixing structure according to the present invention is not limited by the above step sequence, and the above step sequence may be changed as long as the purpose of the present invention can be achieved.

Therefore, the cable connecting and fixing structure1according to the present invention can be fixed to the outer shell2, and is not prone to being disengaged due to pulling; and moreover, only a gap for the protective structure20to pass through needs to be reserved in the outer shell2, additional structural design is not needed, and the defects in the prior art can be effectively overcome.
