Abstract

The invention relates to a cable sealing device comprising: a first plate having a group of first holes and configured to be mounted to a first side of a housing wall; a second plate having a group of second holes and configured to be mounted to a second side of a housing wall; and a soft elastic sealing element configured to be mounted between one of the first and second plates and the housing wall. The group of first holes and the group of second holes and the sealing element are configured to receive a group of cables, and the first and the second plate can be biased toward each other, so that the sealing element can be pressed and elastically deformed. The sealing element can seal and fix the group of cables in the housing wall in a pressed and elastically deformed status. The invention also relates to a cable sealing system comprising a housing wall and the cable sealing device. The cable sealing device is simple in structure and easy to assemble, and can ensure good sealing and fixing of the cables.

Claims (16)

1. A cable sealing device, comprising:

a first plate having a group of first holes and configured to be mounted to a first side of a housing wall;

a second plate having a group of second holes and configured to be mounted to a second side of the housing wall opposite the first side; and

a soft elastic sealing element configured to be mounted between one of the first and the second plate and the housing wall;

wherein the group of first holes and the group of second holes and the sealing element are configured to receive a group of cables, and the first and the second plate can be biased toward each other, so that the sealing element can be pressed and elastically deformed, wherein the sealing element can seal and fix the group of cables in the housing wall in a pressed and elastically deformed status.

2. The cable sealing device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the sealing element has a group of third holes configured to receive the group of cables.

3. Cable sealing device according to claim 2 , characterized in that the sealing element comprises an outer part and an internal part which can be embedded into the central cavity of the annular part.

4. The cable sealing device according to claim 3 , characterized in that a majority of the group of third holes are divided by the outer part and the inner part.

5. The cable sealing device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the second plate is configured to be mounted to the second side of the housing wall as an outer surface, and the sealing element is configured to be mounted between the second plate and the housing wall.

6. The cable sealing device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the cable sealing device comprises at least one bolt connection configured to tension the first and the second plate each other.

7. The cable sealing device according to claim 6 , characterized in that the first and the second plate have respective receiving holes for receiving a bolt ( 5 ) of the bolt connection.

8. The cable sealing device according to claim 6 , characterized in that the bolt of the bolt connection is provided with a sealing ring, and the sealing ring for the bolt is configured to be mounted between one of the first and the second plate and the housing wall, and to seal the bolt in a pressed and elastically deformed status.

9. A cable sealing system comprising a housing wall and a cable sealing device according to claim 1 , wherein the housing wall has a group of fourth holes configured to receive a group of cables.

10. The cable sealing system according to claim 9 , characterized in that the housing wall has a roof structure extending from the second side thereof and partially surrounding a cable introduction area having the group of fourth holes.

11. The cable sealing system according to claim 9 , characterized in that the housing wall has a rib arrangement surrounding and separating the group of fourth holes on its second side.

12. The cable sealing system according to claim 9 , characterized in that the cable sealing device comprises at least one bolt connection configured to bias the first and the second plate toward each other, wherein the housing wall has a cylindrical hole for receiving a bolt of the bolt connection, wherein the cylindrical hole protrudes from the second side of the housing wall, and wherein a nut of the bolt connection can abut against the cylindrical hole.
