ELECTRIC WIRE ACCOMMODATION DEVICE AND ELECTRIC WIRE PROCESSING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18670835 titled 'ELECTRIC WIRE ACCOMMODATION DEVICE AND ELECTRIC WIRE PROCESSING APPARATUS
The patent application describes an electric wire accommodation device that includes a body, an electric wire reel for winding the wire, and a gripping member to hold the wire.
- The device allows the electric wire to be pulled out and reeled in intermittently by a mechanism outside the body.
- The gripping member is designed to hold the wire with a force smaller than the force applied by the reeling mechanism.
- This design prevents the wire from being pulled back into the device unintentionally.
- The device ensures smooth and controlled extension and retraction of the electric wire.
- It provides a secure and efficient way to manage electric wires in various applications.
Potential Applications: - Industrial settings for managing electrical cables - Home appliances for retractable cords - Automotive industry for retractable charging cables
Problems Solved: - Prevents accidental retraction of electric wires - Ensures controlled extension and retraction of wires - Provides a secure grip on the wire during use
Benefits: - Improved safety in handling electric wires - Enhanced convenience in managing cords - Increased efficiency in various applications
Commercial Applications: Title: "Innovative Electric Wire Accommodation Device for Enhanced Cable Management" This technology can be used in industries, homes, and automotive settings for efficient cable management, improving safety and convenience.
Questions about the Electric Wire Accommodation Device: 1. How does the gripping member prevent the wire from being retracted unintentionally? The gripping member applies a force smaller than the reeling mechanism, allowing the wire to be pulled out easily but preventing it from being retracted without intentional action.
2. What are the potential applications of this technology in the automotive industry? This technology can be used in the automotive industry for retractable charging cables, providing a convenient and efficient way to manage cords in vehicles.
Original Abstract Submitted
An electric wire accommodation device includes an accommodation device body, an electric wire reel being a reel around which an electric wire is wound and configured to be accommodated inside the accommodation device body, in which the electric wire is configured to be pulled out to outside of the accommodation device body and to be intermittently reeled out by a reel-out mechanism provided outside the accommodation device body, and an electric wire gripping member attached on a pull-out route in the accommodation device body along which the electric wire is pulled out and configured to grip the electric wire with a gripping force smaller than a reel-out force applied by the reel-out mechanism.
