A new network distribution frame

Abstract

This invention relates to the field of patch panel equipment technology, specifically a novel network patch panel, comprising: a patch panel and a placement plate. The patch panel has a cable tray and a front panel on one side. Inside the patch panel are a first rotating wheel assembly, a second rotating wheel assembly, a moving plate, a return spring, a sliding rod, and a limiting slider. The advantages are: this invention uses jumpers, rotating wheel assembly one, and rotating wheel assembly two to bring the moving plate and the rotating rod on one side of the baffle closer together, stretching the return spring and the extension spring respectively, thereby stretching the RJ45 connector and jumper. Furthermore, the return spring's reset and the extension spring's elastic recovery cause the jumper to retract to the inside of the baffle. This reduces construction steps and potential failure points, ensuring the equipment is formed in one go. The cable tray reduces the need for cable management racks, thus lowering construction costs, and the novel patch panel reduces cabinet space requirements.

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of patch panel equipment technology, specifically a novel network patch panel. Background Technology

[0002] Network patch panels are modular devices primarily used at the central office to manage front-end information points. They are particularly common in computer rooms and similar settings, where network cables are connected and managed via patch panels.

[0003] The construction of low-voltage intelligent systems requires the use of network patch panels. However, in actual construction, existing network patch panels occupy a large amount of cabinet space and have many nodes, which invisibly increases the number of failure points, resulting in a relatively large proportion of construction costs. In addition, the crowded cabinet layout further affects the construction and cost of low-voltage intelligent systems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel network patch panel to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. However, in actual construction, existing network patch panels occupy a large amount of cabinet space and have many nodes, which invisibly increases the number of failure points, resulting in a relatively large proportion of construction costs. Furthermore, the crowded cabinet layout further affects the construction and cost of intelligent low-voltage systems.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a novel network patch panel, the novel network patch panel comprising: A patch panel is provided with a cable box and a front panel on one side. Several evenly distributed cable outlet slots are provided on the side wall of the front panel. Each cable outlet slot is provided with a first set of rotating wheels and a second set of rotating wheels. A movable plate is provided on one side of the second set of rotating wheels. The movable plate is connected to a return spring, a slide rod and a limit slider. The patch panel is connected to an RJ45 module. The placement plate is fixedly connected to one side of the patch panel, and a number of evenly distributed and staggered fixing rings are provided on one side wall of the placement plate.

[0006] Preferably, mounting plates are fixedly connected to both symmetrical side walls of the patch panel, and an RJ45 module is fixedly connected to the side wall of the patch panel connected to the mounting plate. Several arrayed cable trays are provided on the other side wall of the patch panel.

[0007] Preferably, the two sides of the cable box are fixedly connected to the patch panel and the front panel, respectively. The cable box is provided with multiple connecting wires corresponding to the cable slots. The other end of the connecting wire passes through the cable slots and is fixedly connected to the RJ45 module.

[0008] Preferably, each of the cable outlet slots has a limiting groove and a wedge-shaped groove at both ends of one side of its inner wall. The wedge-shaped groove is equipped with a telescopic spring. A baffle is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the end of the cable outlet slot away from the wiring frame. The side wall of the baffle and the side wall of the cable box are fixedly connected to the two ends of the corresponding sliding rod, respectively.

[0009] Preferably, the cable outlet groove has rotating rods inside both ends between the baffle and the cable box. One end of one rotating rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cable outlet groove, and one end of the other rotating rod is fixedly connected to a wedge block. The wedge block is slidably connected to the wedge groove. One side of the wedge block is fixedly connected to one end of a telescopic spring, and the other end of the telescopic spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the wedge groove away from the cable box. The outer walls of the other ends of the two rotating rods are respectively fixed and rotatably connected to one side wall of the rotating wheel assembly.

[0010] Preferably, one side of the movable plate is fixedly connected to the limiting slider, the outer wall of the limiting slider is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove, both the limiting slider and the limiting groove are "T" shaped, and the movable plate is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the slide rod.

[0011] Preferably, the two symmetrical ends of the movable plate away from the limiting slider are fixedly connected to rotating shafts. The two rotating shafts are fixedly and rotatably connected to the second rotating wheel group. Both the second rotating wheel group and the first rotating wheel group are movably connected to jumpers. One end of the jumper is connected to the ribbon cable box, and the other end of the jumper passes through the baffle and is fixedly connected to an RJ45 crystal head.

[0012] Preferably, the return spring is sleeved on the outer wall of one end of the slide rod, and the two ends of the return spring are fixedly connected to the side wall of the moving plate and the side wall of the cable box, respectively.

[0013] Preferably, a through hole is provided on one side wall of the placement plate, and strip-shaped holes are provided on the side walls at both symmetrical ends of the placement plate. Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: This invention uses the tension of the jumper wire to cause rotating wheel assembly one and rotating wheel assembly two to rotate on rotating rod and rotating shaft respectively. Simultaneously, the moving plate and the rotating rod on one side of the baffle move closer together, stretching the return spring and extension spring respectively. This achieves the stretching and connection of the RJ45 connector and jumper wire. Furthermore, when not in use, the return spring resets and the extension spring recovers its elasticity, causing the jumper wire to retract to the inside of the baffle. This device reduces the previous steps of installing cable management racks before inserting jumper wires during construction, reducing potential failure points and ensuring the equipment is completed in one go. The addition of cable trays reduces the need for cable management racks, lowering construction costs. The new type of patch panel also reduces cabinet space, making the cabinet layout more rational and aesthetically pleasing. Attached Figure Description

Furthermore, all embodiments can be used in combination with each other. Example 1:

[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 7 This invention provides a technical solution: a novel network patch panel, the novel network patch panel comprising: A patch panel 1 has a cable tray 5 and a front panel 6 on one side. The front panel 6 has several evenly distributed cable outlet slots 7 on its side wall. Each cable outlet slot 7 has a rotating wheel assembly 15 and a rotating wheel assembly 29 inside. A movable plate 21 is located on one side of the rotating wheel assembly 29. The movable plate 21 is connected to a return spring 16, a slide rod 17, and a limit slider 23. An RJ45 module 8 is connected to the patch panel 1. Mounting plates 4 are fixedly connected to the symmetrical side walls of the patch panel 1. The side wall of the patch panel 1 connected to the placement plate 10 is fixedly connected to the RJ45 module 8. Several arrayed cable trays 3 are formed on the other side wall of the patch panel 1. The inner wall of each cable outlet slot 7 has... The cable outlet 7 has a limit groove 24 and a wedge groove 26 at both ends. A telescopic spring 27 is installed inside the wedge groove 26. A baffle 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the end of the cable outlet 7 away from the wiring frame 1. One side wall of the baffle 14 and the side wall of the cable box 5 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the corresponding slide rod 17. Rotating rods 13 are installed inside both ends of the cable outlet 7 between the baffle 14 and the cable box 5. One end of one rotating rod 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cable outlet 7, and one end of the other rotating rod 13 is fixedly connected to a wedge block 25. The wedge block 25 and the wedge groove 26 are connected to the limit groove 24 and the wedge groove 26 respectively. 6. Sliding connection: One side of the wedge block 25 is fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic spring 27, and the other end of the telescopic spring 27 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the wedge groove 26 away from the cable box 5. The outer walls of the other ends of the two rotating rods 13 are fixedly and rotatably connected to the side walls of the rotating wheel assembly 15 respectively. One side of the moving plate 21 is fixedly connected to the limiting slider 23. The outer wall of the limiting slider 23 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting groove 24. Both the limiting slider 23 and the limiting groove 24 are "T" shaped. The moving plate 21 is slidably sleeved on the outer wall of the sliding rod 17. Two rotating shafts 20 are fixedly connected to the two symmetrical ends of the side away from the limit slider 23. The two rotating shafts 20 are fixed and rotatably connected to the second rotating wheel group 19 respectively. The second rotating wheel group 19 and the first rotating wheel group 15 are movably connected to jumpers 18. One end of the jumper 18 is connected to the ribbon cable box 5, and the other end of the jumper 18 passes through the baffle 14 and is fixedly connected to the RJ45 crystal head 22. The return spring 16 is sleeved on the outer wall of one end of the slide rod 17. The two ends of the return spring 16 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the moving plate 21 and the side wall of the ribbon cable box 5 respectively. By applying tension to the RJ45 crystal head 22, the jumper 18 is stretched, causing the first rotating wheel assembly 15 and the second rotating wheel assembly 19 to rotate on the rotating rod 13 and the rotating shaft 20, respectively. At the same time, the jumper 18 causes the moving plate 21 to slide on the slide rod 17, and the stability of the moving plate 21 is ensured by the action between the limiting slider 23 and the limiting groove 24. At this time, the moving plate 21 and the rotating rod 13 on one side of the baffle 14 approach each other and stretch the return spring 16 and the extension spring 27, respectively, thereby stretching the RJ45 crystal head 22 and the jumper 18 and completing the connection. In addition, when not in use, the jumper 18 is retracted to the inside of the baffle 14 by the reset of the return spring 16 and the elastic recovery of the extension spring 27, and the RJ45 crystal head 22 is limited and fixed. Example 2:

[0021] Based on Embodiment 1, it also includes a placement plate 10, which is fixedly connected to one side of the patch panel 1. A number of evenly distributed and staggered fixing rings 9 are provided on one side wall of the placement plate 10. The cable box 5 is fixedly connected to the patch panel 1 and the front panel 6 on both sides respectively. The cable box 5 is provided with a number of connecting wires 2 corresponding to the cable groove 3. The other end of the connecting wire 2 passes through the cable groove 3 and is fixedly connected to the RJ45 module 8. A through hole 11 is opened on one side wall of the placement plate 10, and strip holes 12 are opened on the symmetrical two side walls of the placement plate 10. The patch panel 1 is fixed inside the switch through the mounting holes on the mounting plate 4. In addition, the retaining ring 9 is elastic. By clamping and fixing the network cable to be connected to the retaining ring 9, one end of the network cable is connected to the RJ45 module 8. Furthermore, the through hole 11 and the strip hole 12 can effectively dissipate the heat generated by the network cable during operation.

[0022] In actual use, the patch panel 1 is fixed inside the switch through the mounting holes on the mounting plate 4. The retaining ring 9 is elastic; by securing the network cable to be connected to the retaining ring 9, one end of the network cable is connected to the RJ45 module 8. The through holes 11 and 12 effectively dissipate the heat generated by the network cable during operation. Furthermore, during connection, a pulling force is applied to the RJ45 connector 22, causing the patch cord 18 to be stretched and driving the rotating wheel assembly 15 and rotating wheel assembly 19 to rotate on the rotating rod 13 and rotating shaft 20 respectively. Simultaneously, the patch cord... 18 drives the movable plate 21 to slide on the slide bar 17, and the stability of the movable plate 21 is ensured by the action between the limiting slider 23 and the limiting groove 24. At this time, the movable plate 21 and the rotating rod 13 on one side of the baffle 14 approach each other and stretch the return spring 16 and the extension spring 27 respectively, thereby stretching the RJ45 crystal head 22 and the jumper 18 and completing the connection. In addition, when it is not needed, the jumper 18 is retracted to the inside of the baffle 14 by the reset of the return spring 16 and the elastic recovery of the extension spring 27, and the RJ45 crystal head 22 is limited and fixed.
