They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.
[0026] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a preferred embodiment of the present invention provides a local area network (LAN) communication hub 100, including a hub body 10 and a cable management board assembly 20 connected to the hub body 10. The hub body 10 has several interfaces on its front side and also includes a distance adjustment assembly 30. The distance adjustment assembly 30 includes an adjustment base 31, a handle 32, a movable block 33, and transmission bevel gears A34, B35, C36, and D37, a transmission rod 38, and a lead screw 39 disposed within the adjustment base 31. The adjustment base 31 is fixedly connected to the top of the hub body 10, and the handle 32, transmission rod 38, and lead screw 39 are rotatably connected to the adjustment base 31. 32. The transmission rod 38 and the lead screw 39 are preferably rotatably connected to the adjusting seat 31 via bearings. The handle 32 is connected to the transmission bevel gear A34, which is arranged longitudinally along the rotating shaft. The transmission bevel gear A34 meshes with the transmission bevel gear B35. The transmission rod 38 is fixedly connected to the transmission bevel gear B35 and the transmission bevel gear C36 and is arranged coaxially. The transmission bevel gear C36 meshes with the transmission bevel gear D37. The transmission bevel gear D37 is fixedly connected to the lead screw 39 and is arranged coaxially. The movable block 33 is threaded to the lead screw 39. One end of the movable block 33 protrudes from the front side of the hub body 10 and is connected to the cable assembly 20. The cable assembly 20 is connected to two movable blocks 33.
[0028] Based on the above embodiment, the local area network communication hub 100, by setting a distance adjustment component 30, has its transmission bevel gear A34, transmission bevel gear B35, transmission bevel gear C36, transmission bevel gear D37, transmission rod 38, and lead screw 39 all located inside the adjustment seat 31. Turning the handle 32 can cause the transmission bevel gear A34 to rotate, thereby driving the transmission bevel gear B35, which meshes with the transmission bevel gear A34, to rotate. The transmission rod 38 and transmission bevel gear C36 rotate together with the transmission bevel gear B35, and the transmission bevel gear D37, which meshes with the transmission gear C36, also rotates. The rotation of the screw 39 causes the lead screw to rotate. The movable block 33 connected to the cable assembly 20 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 39. There are two movable blocks 33, so the movable block 33 is limited and does not rotate with the lead screw 39 but moves along the lead screw 39. The two movable blocks 33 make the installation of the cable assembly 20 more stable. Thus, the local area network communication hub 100 can adjust the distance between the cable assembly 20 and the hub body 10 for cable management. The adjustment is very convenient, requiring only the rotation of the handle 32. It also keeps the exterior of the hub body 10 from accumulating dust and is easy to clean.
[0029] Preferably, the adjusting seat 31 is provided with a first sub-cavity 311 and two second sub-cavities 312. The first sub-cavity 311 extends along the rear side wall of the hub body 10. The two second sub-cavities 312 are spaced apart and are perpendicular to the first sub-cavity 311. The transmission bevel gear A34, transmission bevel gear B35, transmission bevel gear C36, transmission bevel gear D37 and transmission rod 38 are all provided in the first sub-cavity 311. The lead screw 39 is provided in the second sub-cavities 312. The first sub-cavity 311 and the second sub-cavities 312 are connected. The second sub-cavity 312 has a first limiting groove 3121 on its side wall along its length direction. The movable block 33 is provided with a first limiting part 331. The first limiting part 331 slides in the first limiting groove 3121. One end of the movable block 33 extends out of the second sub-cavity 312 and is connected to the cable assembly 20. By setting a first limiting groove 3121 and a first limiting part 331 that cooperates with the first limiting groove 3121 on the movable block 33, the movement range of the movable block 33 can be limited to prevent it from falling out of the adjusting seat 31.
[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, preferably, the local area network communication hub 100 further includes a heat dissipation component 40. A first heat dissipation vent is provided on the top of the hub body 10. The heat dissipation component 40 includes a heat sink 41, a cooling fan 42, and a first dust filter 43. The cooling fan 42 is preferably model A2175-HBLT.GN. The heat sink 41 covers the top of the first heat dissipation vent, and the cooling fan 42 is located inside the heat sink 41. A second heat dissipation vent is provided on the top of the heat sink 41, and the first dust filter 43 covers the second heat dissipation vent. By providing the cooling fan 42 and the first and second heat dissipation vents, heat dissipation can be achieved for the hub body 10. The first dust filter 43 at the second heat dissipation vent prevents dust from falling into the hub body 10 from the second heat dissipation vent.
[0031] In some preferred embodiments, the local area network communication hub 100 further includes a cleaning component 50, which includes a cleaning plate 51, a driving element 52, and a collecting component 53. The driving element 52 is preferably an electric cylinder or a pneumatic cylinder. The driving element 52 is mounted on the top of the hub body 10 and located on one side of the heat sink 41. The driving element 52 is detachably connected to the cleaning plate 51 and is used to drive the cleaning plate 51 to move along the top of the first dust filter 43. The collecting component 53 is located on the top of the heat sink 41 away from the driving element 52 and is used to collect the dust scraped by the cleaning plate 51. The dust blocked by the first dust filter 43 will accumulate on its top. Removing the first dust filter 43 will cause the dust to be easily shaken off and enter the hub body 10. The cleaning plate 51 of the present invention can scrape the dust accumulated on the top of the first dust filter 43 under the drive of the driving element 52 and collect the dust under the operation of the collecting component 53. The cleaning plate 51 can be removed from the driving element 52 for cleaning or replacement after multiple uses.
[0032] Preferably, the driving end of the driving component 52 is connected to a disassembly base 521. The disassembly base 521 has an access groove 5211 on the side facing the cleaning plate 51. The cleaning plate 51 has an access block 511 on the side facing the driving component 52. The access block 511 cooperates with the access groove 5211. The top surface of the access block 511 has a first slot 5111. The top of the access groove 5211 has a first insertion hole 5212 that penetrates the top of the disassembly base 521 and corresponds to the first slot 5111. A insertion rod 5213 is inserted into the first insertion hole 5212. The side wall of the first insertion hole 5212 is... The device is provided with a first sliding groove 5214, and a first limiting protrusion 52131 on the side wall of the insertion rod 5213. A first spring 5215 is provided in the first sliding groove 5214. One end of the first spring 5215 is connected to the top wall of the first sliding groove 5214, and the other end of the first spring 5215 is connected to the first limiting protrusion 52131. The cleaning plate 51 can switch between a locked state and an unlocked state. When the cleaning plate 51 is in the locked state, the insertion rod 5213 is inserted into the first slot 5111. When the cleaning plate 51 is in the unlocked state, the insertion rod 5213 is dislodged from the first slot 5111. By setting a first spring 5215 to connect the insertion rod 5213 and the mounting / removing seat 521, pulling the insertion rod 5213 upwards can dislodge it from the first slot 5111 of the cleaning plate 51, allowing the cleaning plate 51 to be removed. When the insertion rod 5213 is released, it will automatically return to its original position within the first slot 5111 of the cleaning plate 51 under the action of the first spring 5215, thus locking the cleaning plate 51.
[0033] Preferably, the collection component 53 includes a dust collection hood 531, a conveying pipe 532, an exhaust fan 533, and a dust collection box 534. The exhaust fan 533 is preferably a YDK139 model. The dust collection box 534 is installed on the top of the hub body 10, with a first ventilation opening on the top and a second dust filter 5341 installed thereon. The exhaust fan 533 is installed on top of the dust collection box 534 and covers the first ventilation opening. The dust collection hood 531 is installed on the top of the heat sink 41 on the side opposite to the drive component 52. The conveying pipe 532 connects the dust collection hood 531 and the dust collection box 534. The exhaust fan 533 can suck up dust, and the dust collection hood 531 facilitates the collection of dust scraped by the cleaning plate 51 into the conveying pipe 532, ultimately falling into the dust collection box 534.
[0034] As an improvement to this solution, a dust collection box 5342 is placed inside the dust collection box 5344. The dust collection box 5344 also has a dust guiding section 5343 located above the dust collection box 5342. The dust guiding section 5343 is inclined towards the top opening of the dust collection box 5342 and is used to guide dust into the dust collection box 5342. A retrieval opening 5344 is provided on the side wall of the dust collection box 5344, and a sealing plug 5345 is provided on the retrieval opening 5344. The sealing plug 5345 is used to open or close the retrieval opening 5344. By further placing the dust collection box 5342 inside the dust collection box 5344 and providing the retrieval opening 5344 on the side wall of the dust collection box 5344, the sealing plug 5345 can be opened periodically to remove the dust collection box 5342 and discharge the dust.
[0035] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, preferably, the local area network communication hub 100 further includes a protective component 60. The protective component 60 includes a protective base 61, a protective plate 62, a second spring 63, a slide rod 64, and a locking pin 65. The protective base 61 is connected to the hub body 10 and surrounds the outer periphery of the interface. The protective base 61 has second sliding grooves 611 on the left and right sides facing the interface, and a clearance opening on the top of the protective base 61. The protective plate 62 has second limiting protrusions 621 on the left and right sides, and the second limiting protrusions 621 have through holes. The slide rod 64 passes through the through holes and the slide rod 65... The two ends of 4 are respectively connected to the top and bottom walls of the second slide groove 611. The second spring 63 is sleeved on the slide rod 64 and one end of the second spring 63 is connected to the top wall of the second slide groove 611. The other end of the second spring 63 is connected to the second limiting protrusion 621. The left or right side of the protective plate 62 is also provided with a second slot 622. The second slot 622 is located below the second limiting protrusion 621. The protective seat 61 is provided with a second insertion hole 612 corresponding to the second slot 622. The locking pin 65 passes through the second insertion hole 612 and cooperates with the second slot 622. By setting up the protective component 60, the interface can be protected to prevent dust and moisture from entering the interface and affecting the plug-in cable. The protective base 61 has a clearance opening at the top, through which the protective plate 62 passes. When the interface needs to be used, pull the locking pin 65, and the second spring 63 will drive the protective plate 62 to move upward to open the interface. When the interface needs to be closed, simply press the top of the protective plate 62 downward from above the clearance opening to close the interface again. At this time, the locking pin 65 is reinserted into the second slot 622 to lock the protective plate 62.
[0036] As an improvement to this solution, the protective component 60 also includes a third spring 66. A third groove 6121 is provided on the side wall of the second insertion hole 612. The locking pin 65 has a third limiting protrusion 651, which is located within the third groove 6121. One end of the third spring 66 is connected to the third limiting protrusion 651, and the other end is connected to the side wall of the third groove 6121 facing away from the protective plate 62. By providing the third spring 66 to the locking pin 65, when the locking pin 65 is released, the third spring 66 can automatically reset the locking pin 65, causing it to insert into the second slot 622. Furthermore, without external force, the locking pin 65 can always lock the protective plate 62 securely.
[0037] As an improvement to this solution, the end of the locking pin 65 near the protective plate 62 is provided with a downwardly inclined push surface 652, which can further simplify the steps of closing the interface of the protective plate 62. When the finger presses down on the protective plate 62, it is not necessary to first pull open the locking pin 65 to make way for the protective plate 62, and then release the locking pin 65 after the protective plate 62 is fully pushed to the bottom of the protective seat 61. Instead, when the protective plate 62 is pressed down, its bottom exerts pressure on the push surface 652, so that the locking pin 65 is automatically pushed open to make way for the protective plate 62 to close the interface.
[0038] The cable management board assembly 20 of the present invention includes a cable management board 21, a telescopic rod 22, and a cable distribution board 23.
