[0029] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this embodiment provides an industrial Internet gateway, which includes: a shell 1, an electronic control element 2, an intake fan 3, a first filter plate 4, a second filter plate 5 and a replacement structure 6, the electronic control element 2 is installed in the inner cavity of the shell 1 and is used for Internet control, the shell wall of the shell 1 is provided with an air inlet 11 and an exhaust port 12 connected to the inner cavity of the shell 1, the air inlet 11 is provided with a card slot 111, the inner cavity of the shell 1 is provided with a first accommodating groove 13 and a second accommodating groove 14, the first accommodating groove 13 and the second accommodating groove 14 are both connected to the card slot 111, the intake fan 3 is installed in the inner cavity of the shell 1, and the intake fan 3 draws external air from the air inlet 11 into the outside The inner cavity of the housing 1 is then discharged from the exhaust port 12 to take away the heat emitted by the electronic control element 2. The first filter plate 4 is movably arranged between the first receiving groove 13 and the card slot 111. The first filter plate 4 is used to filter the air drawn into the inner cavity of the housing 1. The second filter plate 5 is movably arranged between the second receiving groove 14 and the card slot 111. The second filter plate 5 is used to replace the first filter plate 4 blocked by dust. The replacement structure 6 is installed in the inner cavity of the housing 1. The replacement structure 6 is used to move the first filter plate 4 from the card slot 111 to the first receiving groove 13, and to move the second filter plate 5 from the second receiving groove 14 to the card slot 111. The inner cavity of the housing 1 is fixedly provided with a wind shield 7, and the wind shield 7 is coaxially connected to the air inlet 11. The air intake fan 3 is rotatably connected to the wind shield 7 through the mounting seat 8. The two side walls of the wind shield 7 are respectively provided with an inlet 71 and an outlet 72. The inlet 71 is connected to the second receiving groove 14, and the outlet 72 is connected to the first receiving groove 13.
[0030] It should be noted that when the temperature inside the gateway is too high, the gateway will control the intake fan 3 to work, and the intake fan 3 will draw gas from the outside into the interior of the shell 1 through the air inlet 11. When the gas enters the interior of the shell 1, the gas will be filtered out of dust by the first filter plate 4 to prevent dust from entering the interior of the shell 1 and affecting the heat dissipation of the electronic control component 2 or causing poor contact of the internal electronic components. The gas with dust filtered out is blown along the inside of the shell 1 under the blowing of the intake fan 3 until it is discharged from the interior of the shell 1 through the exhaust port 12. In this process, the blown gas will take away the heat on the electronic control component 2 and be discharged from the interior of the shell 1 together, so as to achieve the effect of quickly dissipating heat and cooling the gateway, and prevent the internal temperature of the gateway from being too high and affecting the normal operation of the gateway.
[0031] In this embodiment, the replacement structure 6 includes a retaining ring 61, a first spring 62 and a pushing portion. The retaining ring 61 presses the first filter plate 4 and is axially slidably arranged in the wind cover 7. One end of the first spring 62 is against the mounting seat 8, and the other end of the first spring 62 is against the retaining ring 61. The pushing portion is arranged in the second accommodating groove 14. When the first spring 62 is elastically reset, the retaining ring 61 presses the first filter plate 4 into the slot 111. When the first spring 62 is compressed, the first filter plate 4 is disengaged from the slot 111 until the first filter plate 4 is aligned with the second accommodating groove 14. The outlet 72, the pushing portion pushes the second filter plate 5 into the wind cover 7 from the inlet 71, the second filter plate 5 drives the first filter plate 4 to move, so that the first filter plate 4 is pushed from the outlet 72 into the first accommodating groove 13; the pushing portion includes a push rod 63 and a second spring 64, the push rod 63 is slidably arranged in the second accommodating groove 14 and abuts against the second filter plate 5, one end of the second spring 64 abuts against the push rod 63, and the other end of the second spring 64 abuts against the groove wall of the second accommodating groove 14 away from the inlet 71, so that the second spring 64 always drives the second filter plate 5 to move toward the inlet 71.
[0032] Furthermore, the inlet 71 is flush with the outlet 72 , and a stopper 611 is provided on the stop ring 61 . When the first spring 62 is elastically reset, the stopper 611 closes the inlet 71 , and when the first spring 62 is compressed, the stopper 611 opens the inlet 71 .
[0033] As can be known from the above-mentioned embodiment, when too much dust accumulates on the first filter plate 4, the flow rate of the gas passing through the first filter plate 4 is reduced, so that the suction force of the intake fan 3 to extract the external gas is borne by the first filter plate 4, and then the first filter plate 4 is sucked and pushes the baffle ring 61 to squeeze the first spring 62 to contract, so that the baffle ring 61 drives the baffle block 611 to slide along the inside of the wind cover 7. When the baffle block 611 is pushed to the end and blocked by the mounting seat 8, the baffle block 611 opens the inlet 71, and the first filter plate 4 is aligned with the second filter plate 5, so that the second spring 64 can push the push rod 63 to slide along the inside of the second accommodating groove 14, and then the push rod 63 pushes the second filter plate 5 to squeeze the first filter plate 4. , let the second filter plate 5 reach the position where the first filter plate 4 is located and push the first filter plate 4 from the outlet 72 into the first accommodating groove 13. It should be noted that the second filter plate 5 replaced at this time can quickly filter the dust in the gas, so that the second filter plate 5 will not be sucked by the excessive gas. The first spring 62 can be reset and push the second filter plate 5 to the card slot 111 where the first filter plate 4 is located at the beginning through the retaining ring 61, so as to achieve the effect of automatically replacing the first filter plate 4 blocked by dust with the second filter plate 5, so as to prevent the staff from not discovering that the filter plate is blocked in time, resulting in the inlet fan 3 being unable to extract enough gas from the outside in time to dissipate heat inside the gateway.

The first accommodating groove 13 and the second accommodating groove 14 can be entered through the slot 15, that is, the staff can pull the insertion rod 9 to gradually disengage from the slot 15. When the insertion rod 9 is pulled a certain distance and the push rod 63 abuts against the side wall of the insertion rod 9 away from the moving direction, the insertion rod 9 will pull the push rod 63 to squeeze the second spring 64 to contract, so that the staff can take out the first filter plate 4 blocked by dust and put the new second filter plate 5 on the side of the push rod 63, so as to achieve the effect of quickly changing the filter plate.
[0035] In this embodiment, a dust shield 10 is provided on the outer wall of the housing 1 , and the dust shield 10 is used to prevent dust from entering the inner cavity of the housing 1 from the exhaust port 12 , thereby reducing dust from entering the inner cavity of the housing 1 from the exhaust port 12 .

A dust baffle 40 is rotatably connected to the top of the socket, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the plug 20 and the electronic control element 2, and reducing the dust from entering the inner cavity of the shell 1 through the socket.
[0037] In this embodiment, a heat dissipation fin 21 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the electronic control element 2, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation effect of the electronic control element 2 and increasing the service life of the gateway.
[0038] Although the disclosure is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the disclosure is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the disclosure, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
