Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of network port locks, and in particular, to a network port locking device. Background Art
[0002] Network equipment such as servers and switches are widely used in power systems. Network ports are often set on network equipment. Network management and control of network equipment can be achieved by plugging or unplugging the crystal head of the network cable into or out of the network port.
[0003] Since idle network ports may be used by humans to threaten the network and information security of the entire system, and the network cable is connected by the elastic arm on the crystal head that is inserted into the concave structure of the network port and can be plugged in and out at will, human operation errors will affect the transmission of information. Therefore, in order to ensure the reliability of network equipment operation, locks are required to lock the network cables and network ports. However, existing network port locks or network cable locks only lock network ports or network cables, which cannot meet the requirements of locking both idle network ports and used network cables. Summary of the invention
[0004] The embodiment of the present application provides a network port locking device, which can lock both idle network ports and in-use network cables, so that operators can manage the network ports of network devices and the network cables connected to the network devices.
[0005] The embodiment of the present application provides a network port locking device, including a lock body module. The lock body module is used to be installed on a network device, and the lock body module includes a first shell, a pusher and a locking assembly; the pusher is movably arranged in the first shell, and the pusher has a first position, a second position and a third position in its travel, and the second position is located between the first position and the third position; in the first position, the lock body module allows a crystal head to be inserted into the network port of the network device, and blocks the elastic arm of the crystal head inserted into the network port to limit the crystal head from being pulled out; in the second position, the pusher presses the elastic arm of the crystal head to unlock the crystal head; in the third position, the pusher at least partially blocks the network port to limit the crystal head from being inserted into the network port; the locking assembly is arranged in the first shell, and the locking assembly is used to releasably lock the pusher when the pusher is in the first position, and releasably lock the pusher when the pusher is in the third position.
[0006] Specifically, when the network port needs to be locked, the locking assembly is operated to unlock the push member so that the push member can move relative to the first shell, and the push member is moved to the third position. At this time, the push member at least partially blocks the network port. Since the crystal head and the network port are adapted to each other, when the network port is blocked, the crystal head cannot be inserted into the network port. Then the locking assembly locks the push member to limit the movement of the push member relative to the first shell, thereby completing the locking of the network port.
[0007] When the network port needs to be used, the locking assembly is operated to unlock the push member so that the push member can move relative to the first shell, and then the push member is moved to the first position. At this time, the push member does not block the network port, so that the network port is in an unlocked state, so that the crystal head can be inserted into the network port, and then the elastic arm of the crystal head pops out to be blocked by the lock body module, so that the operator will not accidentally touch the elastic arm and cause the crystal head to detach from the network port. Then the locking assembly locks the push member to limit the movement of the push member relative to the first shell, thereby completing the locking of the network cable.
[0008] When the network cable needs to be removed, the locking assembly is operated to unlock the pusher so that the pusher can move relative to the first housing, and the pusher is moved from the first position to the second position. When in the second position, the pusher presses the elastic arm so that the crystal head is unlocked and can be pulled out from the network port. The pusher can then be moved from the second position to the first position to facilitate the insertion of the next crystal head, and then the locking assembly locks the pusher to limit the movement of the pusher relative to the first housing, thereby completing the replacement of the old network cable and the locking of the new network cable; or, the pusher can be moved from the second position to the third position, and then the locking assembly locks the pusher to limit the movement of the pusher relative to the first housing, thereby completing the removal of the network cable and locking the network port of the pulled-out network cable.
[0009] In the above technical solution, the network port locking device can lock both idle network ports and used network cables, and is convenient for replacing network cables and locking network ports of unplugged network cables, so that operators can manage network ports of network devices and network cables connected to network devices.
[0010] In some embodiments, the pushing member includes a handle portion, the first shell is provided with a first opening, and the handle portion extends out of the first shell through the first opening.
[0011] In the above technical solution, the handle portion can be used to facilitate the operator. When the locking assembly releases the driving member, an external force is applied to the driving member to drive the driving member to switch between the first position, the second position and the third position. The structure is simple and easy to implement.
[0012] In some embodiments, the push member is provided with a first indicating portion and a second indicating portion; in the first position, the first indicating portion is exposed to the outside through the first opening; in the third position, the second indicating portion is exposed to the outside through the first opening.
[0013] In the above technical solution, the first indicator part is exposed to the outside through the first opening; when in the third position, the second indicator part is exposed to the outside through the first opening, so that the operator can observe the first indicator part and the second indicator part through the first opening to understand the position information of the driving part, and then understand the locking status of the network port when the network cable is not inserted.
[0014] In some embodiments, the first shell is provided with a second opening, and the pushing member includes a pressing portion, which extends out of the first shell through the second opening; in the second position, the pressing portion presses the elastic arm of the crystal head to unlock the crystal head; in the third position, the pressing portion at least partially blocks the network port to limit the insertion of the crystal head into the network port.
[0015] In the above technical solution, the pressing portion of the first shell extending from the second opening presses the elastic arm of the crystal head at the second position to unlock the crystal head. At the same time, at the third position, the network port is at least partially blocked to limit the insertion of the crystal head into the network port. The structure is simple and easy to implement.
[0016] In some embodiments, the lock body module also includes an elastic limiting member; the elastic limiting member is arranged on the pushing member; the inner wall of the first shell is provided with a first limiting groove and a second limiting groove; when the pushing member is located at the first position, the elastic limiting member cooperates with the first limiting groove; when the pushing member is located at the third position, the elastic limiting member cooperates with the second limiting groove.
[0017] In the above technical solution, on the one hand, when the pusher is in the first position, the elastic limiter cooperates with the first limiter groove, so that when the pusher is in the first position and no external force is applied, the elastic limiter can limit the pusher to the first position, thereby facilitating the locking assembly to lock the pusher in the first position; when the pusher is in the third position, the elastic limiter cooperates with the second limiter groove, so that when the pusher is in the third position and no external force is applied, the elastic limiter can limit the pusher to the third position, thereby facilitating the locking assembly to lock the pusher in the third position. On the other hand, the elastic limiter can be elastically deformed during the switching process between the first limiter groove and the second limiter groove, thereby generating a sense of frustration during the process of entering or leaving the first limiter groove and the second limiter groove, so as to remind the operator that the pusher starts to move or moves into place.
[0018] In some embodiments, the second limiting groove has a first end and a second end that are relatively arranged, and the first end is located between the second end and the first limiting groove; when the pushing member is located at the second position, the elastic limiting member is located at the first end; when the pushing member is located at the third position, the elastic limiting member is located at the second end.
[0019] In the above technical solution, when the pusher is in the second position, the elastic limiter is located at the first end. When the pusher is in the third position, the elastic limiter is located at the second end. This makes it easier for the operator to drive the pusher to the third position after unlocking the crystal plug in the second position to unplug the network cable.
[0020] In some embodiments, the lock body module further includes a first elastic member; the first elastic member is disposed in the first shell, and the first elastic member is used to provide elastic force to the pushing member to drive the pushing member to move toward the third position.
[0021] In the above technical solution, the first elastic member is used to provide elastic force to the pushing member to drive the pushing member to move to the third position, so that when the operator places the pushing member in the second position and pulls out the network cable so that the pushing member is no longer in contact with the crystal head, the first elastic member can drive the driving member to move to the third position, thereby reducing the risk that the operator forgets to continue driving the pushing member to move to the third position, causing the network port to be in an unlocked state after the network cable is pulled out.
[0022] In some embodiments, there are multiple push members, and the multiple push members are arranged at intervals in the first shell; the locking assembly corresponds to the push members one by one; the lock body module also includes multiple indicator lights; multiple indicator lights are arranged in the first shell, and the multiple indicator lights correspond to the push members one by one; the indicator lights are used to indicate the unlocking state of the corresponding pushing members.
[0023] In the above technical solution, on the one hand, multiple pushing members and multiple locking components are provided to facilitate the management of multiple network ports; on the other hand, indicator lights are used to indicate the unlocking status of the corresponding pushing members, which facilitates the operator to understand the status of the pushing members and reduces the risk of damage to the locking components and the pushing components due to the forced movement of the pushing members in the locked state.
[0024] In some embodiments, the locking assembly includes a locking member and a driving member; the driving member is used to drive the locking member to switch between a locking position and an unlocking position; in the locking position, the locking member locks the pushing member; in the unlocking position, the locking member releases the pushing member.
[0025] In the above technical solution, the locking member is driven by the driving member to move between the locking position and the unlocking position to lock and release the pushing member, and the structure is simple and easy to implement.
[0026] In some embodiments, the pushing member is provided with a third limiting groove and a fourth limiting groove; when the locking member cooperates with the third limiting groove, the locking member locks the pushing member in the first position; when the locking member cooperates with the fourth limiting groove, the locking member locks the pushing member in the third position.
[0027] In the above technical solution, the locking member is cooperated with the third limiting groove to lock the pushing member in the first position, and the locking member is cooperated with the fourth limiting groove to lock the pushing member in the third position, so that the locking member can lock the pushing member in the first position and the third position, and the structure is simple and easy to implement.
[0028] In some embodiments, the pushing member is provided with a connecting groove connecting the third limiting groove and the fourth limiting groove, and the width of the connecting groove is smaller than the width of the third limiting groove and smaller than the width of the fourth limiting groove; the driving member is a motor, and the locking member is connected to the rotating shaft of the motor; the connecting groove is configured to allow the locking member located in the unlocking position to pass through, and to limit the locking member located in the locking position from passing through.
[0029] In the above technical solution, the width of the connecting groove is smaller than the width of the third limiting groove and smaller than the width of the fourth limiting groove. The size of the locking member in the width direction of the connecting groove in the locking position is larger than the width of the connecting groove, so that it cannot pass through the connecting groove, thereby making the pushing member unable to move relative to the locking member, thereby locking the pushing member.
[0030] In some embodiments, the driving member includes a solenoid and a second elastic member, and the locking member is a core shaft; the solenoid is used to drive the locking member to move from the locked position to the unlocked position; the second elastic member is used to drive the locking member to move from the unlocked position to the locked position.
[0031] In the above technical solution, the solenoid is used to be energized to generate a magnetic field to drive the core shaft to approach the solenoid and then disengage from the third limit groove or the fourth limit groove, so that the pushing member is released; the second elastic member is used to provide elastic force to the core shaft to drive the core shaft to insert into the third limit groove or the fourth limit groove to lock the pushing member when the solenoid is not energized.
[0032] In some embodiments, the network port locking device further includes a power supply module; the power supply module includes a second shell, a control circuit board and a wireless power supply component. The second shell has a key socket for inserting a computer key; the control circuit board is arranged in the second shell, and the control circuit board is electrically connected to the drive member; the wireless power supply component is arranged on the control circuit board, and the control circuit board is electrically connected to the computer key through the wireless power supply component to receive the signal and power of the computer key, and the control circuit board responds to the signal of the computer key to provide power to the drive member to switch the locking member to the unlocking position.
[0033] In the above technical solution, the control circuit board and the wireless power supply component are integrated into the second shell, and the control circuit board is electrically connected to the computer key through the wireless power supply component to receive the signal and power of the computer key. Compared with the case where the control circuit board is connected to the external power supply, there is no need to set up an additional power supply line, and there is no need to open an additional hole for the power supply line on the lock body, which simplifies the structure of the lock body and increases the integrity of the smart cabinet lock. At the same time, it is convenient to complete the installation and removal of the control circuit board and the wireless power supply component by installing and removing the second shell, simplifying the installation and removal of the power supply module.
[0034] In some embodiments, the lock body module also includes a micro switch; the micro switch is arranged in the first shell and is electrically connected to the control circuit board, the micro switch includes a lever, the lever has a fourth position, a fifth position and a sixth position in its stroke, and the fifth position is located between the fourth position and the sixth position; when the push member is in the second position, the lever is in the fifth position; when the push member moves from the second position to the first position, the push member drives the lever to move from the fifth position to the fourth position, so that the micro switch sends a first signal; when the push member moves from the second position to the third position, the push member drives the lever to move from the fifth position to the sixth position, so that the micro switch sends a second signal.
[0035] In the above technical solution, when the pusher moves from the second position to the first position, the pusher drives the lever to move from the fifth position to the fourth position, so that the micro switch sends a first signal; when the pusher moves from the second position to the third position, the pusher drives the lever to move from the fifth position to the sixth position, so that the micro switch sends a second signal. Thus, the control circuit board detects the position information of the pusher through the information received from the micro switch.
[0036] In some embodiments, the network port locking device includes a guide rail; the guide rail is arranged on the network device; the lock body module and the power supply module are installed on the guide rail.
[0037] In the above technical solution, the lock body module and the power supply module are installed on the guide rail, so that the position of the lock body module and the power supply module can be adjusted along the extension direction of the guide rail according to the position of the network port, thereby facilitating the pusher to correspond to the network port.
[0038] In some embodiments, a glue layer for connecting with the network device is disposed on one side of the guide rail; a receiving groove is disposed on the side of the guide rail facing the glue layer, and a magnetic member is disposed in the receiving groove.
[0039] In the above technical solution, the guide rail is bonded to the network equipment through the adhesive layer, which facilitates the installation of the guide rail. At the same time, the adhesive layer is pressed onto the network equipment through the magnetic part, so that there is always a pressing force on the adhesive layer during use, so that the adhesive layer is more stably bonded to the network equipment, thereby increasing the stability of the adhesive layer bonding and extending the service life of the adhesive layer.
[0040] In some embodiments, there are multiple lock body modules, and the multiple lock body modules are sequentially arranged on one side of the power supply module along the extension direction of the guide rail, and the multiple lock body modules are electrically connected to the power supply module.
[0041] In the above technical solution, there are multiple lock body modules. When the network device has multiple network ports, the number of lock body modules can be selected according to actual usage to match the number of network ports of the network device. The structure is simple and easy to implement. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0078] The term "plurality" used in the present application refers to two or more (including two).
[0079] Network equipment such as servers and switches are widely used in power systems. Network equipment is often equipped with network ports. Network management and control of network equipment is achieved by plugging or unplugging the crystal head of the network cable into the network port. Since idle network ports may be used by humans to threaten the network and information security of the entire system, and the network cable is connected by the elastic arm on the crystal head that is inserted into the concave structure of the network port, it can be plugged in and out at will. When human operation errors occur, it will affect the transmission of information. Therefore, in order to ensure the reliability of network equipment operation, locks are needed to lock the network cable and network port. However, existing network port locks or network cable locks only lock network ports or network cables, and cannot lock both idle network ports and in-use network cables.
[0080] Based on the above considerations, in order to enable the same network port locking device to lock both the idle network port and the in-use network cable, so as to facilitate the operator to manage the network port of the network device and the network cable connected to the network device. The embodiment of the present application provides a network port locking device, including a lock body module. The lock body module is used to be installed on the network device, and the lock body module includes a first shell, a pusher and a locking assembly; the pusher is movably arranged on the first shell, and the pusher has a first position, a second position and a third position in its stroke, and the second position is located between the first position and the third position; in the first position, the lock body module allows the crystal head to be inserted into the network port of the network device, and blocks the elastic arm of the crystal head inserted into the network port to limit the crystal head from being pulled out; in the second position, the pusher presses the elastic arm of the crystal head to unlock the crystal head; in the third position, the pusher at least partially blocks the network port to limit the crystal head from being inserted into the network port; the locking assembly is arranged in the first shell, and the locking assembly is used to releasably lock the pusher when the pusher is in the first position, and releasably lock the pusher when the pusher is in the third position.
[0081] In the network port locking device of this structure, when the network port needs to be locked, the locking assembly is operated to unlock the pusher so that the pusher can move relative to the first shell, and the pusher is moved to the third position. At this time, the pusher at least partially blocks the network port. Since the crystal head and the network port are adapted, when the network port is blocked, the crystal head cannot be inserted into the network port. Then the locking assembly locks the pusher to limit the movement of the pusher relative to the first shell, thereby completing the locking of the network port. When the network port needs to be used, the locking assembly is operated to unlock the pusher so that the pusher can move relative to the first shell, and then the pusher is moved to the first position. At this time, the pusher does not block the network port, so that the network port is in an unlocked state, so that the crystal head can be inserted into the network port, and then the elastic arm of the crystal head pops out to be blocked by the lock body module, so that the operator will not accidentally touch the elastic arm to cause the crystal head to detach from the network port. Then the locking assembly locks the pusher to limit the movement of the pusher relative to the first shell, thereby completing the locking of the network cable. When the network cable needs to be removed, the locking assembly is operated to unlock the pusher so that the pusher can move relative to the first housing, and the pusher is moved from the first position to the second position. When in the second position, the pusher presses the elastic arm so that the crystal head is unlocked and can be pulled out from the network port. Then the pusher can be moved from the second position to the first position to facilitate the insertion of the next crystal head, and then the locking assembly locks the pusher to limit the movement of the pusher relative to the first housing, thereby completing the replacement of the old network cable and the locking of the new network cable; or, the pusher is moved from the second position to the third position, and then the locking assembly locks the pusher to limit the movement of the pusher relative to the first housing, thereby completing the unplugging of the network cable and locking the network port of the unplugged network cable. In this way, the network port locking device can meet the needs of locking both the idle network port and the used network cable, while facilitating the replacement of the network cable and the locking of the network port of the unplugged network cable, so that the operator can manage the network port of the network device and the network cable connected to the network device.

The lock body module 100 is used to be installed on the network device 2000, and the lock body module 100 includes a first shell 110, a pusher 120 and a locking assembly 130; the pusher 120 is movably arranged in the first shell 110, and the pusher 120 has a first position, a second position and a third position in its travel, and the second position is located between the first position and the third position; in the first position, the lock body module 100 allows the crystal head 3100 to be inserted into the network port 2100 of the network device 2000, and blocks the elastic arm 3100 of the crystal head 3100 inserted into the network port 2100. 10, to limit the removal of the crystal head 3100; in the second position, the push member 120 presses the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100 to unlock the crystal head 3100; in the third position, the push member 120 at least partially blocks the network port 2100 to limit the insertion of the crystal head 3100 into the network port 2100; the locking component 130 is disposed in the first shell 110, and the locking component 130 is used to releasably lock the push member 120 when the push member 120 is in the first position, and to releasably lock the push member 120 when the push member 120 is in the third position.
[0084] It should be noted that the crystal head 3100 is a connector used by the network cable 3000 to connect to the network port 2100. The crystal head 3100 has an elastic arm 3110. When the crystal head 3100 is inserted into the network port 2100, the elastic arm 3110 abuts against the side wall of the network port 2100 during the insertion process and is forced to move downward to be compressed. When the crystal head 3100 is fully inserted into the network port 2100, the elastic arm 3110 automatically rebounds and snaps into the locking groove of the network port 2100, thereby fixing the crystal head 3100 to prevent it from being accidentally pulled out during use. To pull out the crystal head 3100, it is necessary to press the elastic arm 3110 to release the lock between the locking groove. This allows the crystal head 3100 to be easily pulled out without applying excessive force.
[0085] The lock body module 100 is a mechanical structure module in the network port locking device 1000, which is used to lock the idle network port 2100 and the network cable 3000 in use. Exemplarily, the lock body module 100 can be a simple mechanical transmission module, and the components in the lock body module 100 can be moved by the external force provided by the operator to achieve the locking of the idle network port 2100 and the locking of the network cable 3000 in use; or, the lock body module 100 can be provided with electric components such as motors, electric telescopic rods, etc., and the above-mentioned electric components drive at least some components of the lock body module 100 to move to achieve the locking of the idle network port 2100 and the locking of the network cable 3000 in use.
[0086] It can be understood that in the embodiment where an electric element is provided in the lock body module 100 , the locking device may also be provided with a power supply module 200 for supplying power to the lock body module 100 .
[0087] For ease of description, this embodiment introduces a first direction X, a second direction Y, and a third direction Z, and the first direction X, the second direction Y, and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other. Exemplarily, when the crystal head 3100 is inserted into the network port 2100, the elastic arm 3110 can be located on one side of the crystal head 3100 body in the first direction X, the direction in which the crystal head 3100 is inserted into the network port 2100 can be parallel to the second direction Y, and the multiple network ports 2100 on the network device 2000 can be arranged along the third direction Z.
[0088] The first housing 110 is a component disposed on the network device 2000 to provide installation space for other components of the lock body module 100. Exemplarily, the first housing 110 is a component of a shell-like structure.
[0089] In some embodiments, the first shell 110 includes a first outer shell 112 and a first end cover 111. The first outer shell 112 is provided with an opening at one end in the second direction Y. The first end cover 111 is detachably provided on the first outer shell 112 to close the opening of the first outer shell 112, thereby providing a stable working space for the push member 120 and the locking assembly 130.
[0090] The pusher 120 is a structural member disposed on the first housing 112 and movable along the first direction X. Exemplarily, the pusher 120 may be pushed by an electric member, or may be driven to move by an external force of an operator.
[0091] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 Part of the push member 120 is located in the first shell 112, and part of the push member 120 can be movably arranged on the first end cover 111 along the first direction X. A limiting structure for driving the push member 120 to move along the first direction X is arranged on the inner surface of the first end cover 111.
[0092] The locking assembly 130 is a structural member that releasably locks the pusher 120 when the pusher 120 is located at the first position, and releasably locks the pusher 120 when the pusher 120 is located at the third position. Exemplarily, the locking assembly 130 can lock the pusher 120 by providing abutment force or friction force to the pusher 120.
[0093] In some embodiments, the locking assembly 130 can be a lock core with a lock tongue. By inserting a key and causing the lock tongue to drive the lock core to rotate or extend, the lock tongue abuts against the push member 120 to provide abutting force or friction force to the push member 120 to lock the push member 120.
[0094] “In the first position, the lock body module 100 allows the crystal head 3100 to be inserted into the network port 2100 of the network device 2000, and blocks the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100 inserted into the network port 2100 to limit the crystal head 3100 from being pulled out” can be understood as when the push member 120 is in the first position, the push member 120 does not block the network port 2100, so that the crystal head 3100 can be inserted into the network port 2100, and after the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100 pops out, at least one of the push member 120 and the first shell 110 can block the elastic arm 3110, so that the operator will not accidentally touch the elastic arm 3110, thereby making the crystal head 3100 in a locked state and unable to be pulled out.
[0095] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first shell 110 has a second opening 11111 for partially passing the pushing member 120 , and the portion of the pushing member 120 that is used to abut against the elastic arm 3110 is provided with a receiving groove 1211 , and the elastic arm 3110 is received in the receiving groove 1211 when the pushing member 120 is located at the first position.
[0096] Specifically, when it is necessary to lock the network port 2100, operate the locking assembly 130 to unlock the pushing member 120 so that the pushing member 120 can move relative to the first shell 110, and move the pushing member 120 to the third position. At this time, the pushing member 120 at least partially blocks the network port 2100. Since the crystal head 3100 and the network port 2100 are adapted to each other, when the network port 2100 is blocked, the crystal head 3100 cannot be inserted into the network port 2100. Then, the locking assembly 130 locks the pushing member 120 to limit the movement of the pushing member 120 relative to the first shell 110, thereby completing the locking of the network port 2100.
[0097] When the network port 2100 needs to be used, the locking assembly 130 is operated to unlock the push member 120 so that the push member 120 can move relative to the first shell 110, and then the push member 120 is moved to the first position. At this time, the push member 120 does not block the network port 2100, so that the network port 2100 is in an unlocked state, so that the crystal head 3100 can be inserted into the network port 2100, and then the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100 pops out to be blocked by the lock body module 100, so that the operator will not accidentally touch the elastic arm 3110 and cause the crystal head 3100 to detach from the network port 2100, and then the locking assembly 130 locks the push member 120 to limit the movement of the push member 120 relative to the first shell 110, thereby completing the locking of the network cable 3000.
[0098] When the network cable 3000 needs to be removed, the locking assembly 130 is operated to unlock the push member 120 so that the push member 120 can move relative to the first shell 110, and the push member 120 is moved from the first position to the second position. In the second position, the push member 120 presses the elastic arm 3110 so that the crystal head 3100 is unlocked and can be pulled out from the network port 2100. The pushing member 120 can then be moved from the second position to the first position to facilitate the insertion of the next crystal head 3100, and then the locking assembly 130 locks the pushing member 120 to limit the movement of the pushing member 120 relative to the first shell 110, thereby completing the replacement of the old network cable 3000 and the locking of the new network cable 3000; or, the pushing member 120 can be moved from the second position to the third position, and then the locking assembly 130 locks the pushing member 120 to limit the movement of the pushing member 120 relative to the first shell 110, thereby completing the unplugging of the network cable 3000 and the locking of the network port 2100 of the unplugged network cable 3000.
[0099] In this embodiment, the network port locking device 1000 can lock both the idle network port 2100 and the used network cable 3000, and is convenient for replacing the network cable 3000 and locking the network port 2100 of the unplugged network cable 3000, so that the operator can manage the network port 2100 of the network device 2000 and the network cable 3000 connected to the network device 2000.
[0100] According to some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 2 , and please refer to Figure 3-Figure 5 The pusher 120 includes a handle portion 122 . The first shell 110 is provided with a first opening 11211 . The handle portion 122 extends out of the first shell 110 through the first opening 11211 .
[0101] In some embodiments, the first housing 112 has a first wall 1121 and a second wall 1111 that are oppositely disposed in the second direction Y, wherein the second wall 1111 may be the first end cover 111, the first wall 1121 may be a wall portion of the first housing 112 corresponding to the first end cover 111, and the second wall 1111 is used to connect with the network device 2000. The first opening 11211 is disposed on the first wall 1121 to facilitate the operator to operate the handle portion 122 and apply an external force to the pusher 120 through the handle portion 122.
[0102] The handle portion 122 is a convex portion protruding from the side surface of the pusher 120 facing the first wall 1121. Exemplarily, the handle portion 122 can be formed on the pusher 120 by integral molding.
[0103] In some embodiments, an anti-slip groove is formed on the handle portion 122 .
[0104] In this embodiment, the handle portion 122 can be used to facilitate the operator. When the locking assembly 130 releases the driving member 131, an external force is applied to the driving member 131 to drive the driving member 131 to switch between the first position, the second position and the third position. The structure is simple and easy to implement.
[0105] According to some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 2 , and please refer to Figure 3-Figure 5 The push member 120 is provided with a first indicating portion 123 and a second indicating portion 124; in the first position, the first indicating portion 123 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211; in the third position, the second indicating portion 124 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211.
[0106] The first indicating portion 123 and the second indicating portion 124 are partial side surfaces of the pusher 120 facing the first wall 1121. Exemplarily, the first indicating portion 123 and the second indicating portion 124 are located at opposite sides of the handle portion 122 in the first direction X, respectively.
[0107] The first indicator portion 123 and the second indicator portion 124 may be indicative patterns or words.
[0108] In some embodiments, the first indicator portion 123 is green and the second indicator portion 124 is yellow. When the pushing member 120 is in the first position, the handle portion 122 abuts against one side of the first opening 11211 in the first direction X, so that the first indicator portion 123 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211, so that the operator can observe the green color through the first opening 11211; when the pushing member 120 is in the first position, the handle portion 122 abuts against the other side of the first opening 11211 in the first direction X, so that the second indicator portion 124 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211, so that the operator can observe the yellow color through the first opening 11211, thereby facilitating the operator to understand the position of the pushing member 120 through the color observed at the first opening 11211, and then understand the locked state of the network port 2100.
[0109] In this embodiment, the first indicator portion 123 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211; when in the third position, the second indicator portion 124 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211, so that the operator can observe the first indicator portion 123 and the second indicator portion 124 through the first opening 11211 to understand the position information of the driving member 131, and then understand the locking state of the network port 2100 when the network cable 3000 is not inserted.
[0110] According to some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 2 , and please refer to Figure 3-Figure 5The first shell 110 is provided with a second opening 11111, and the pushing member 120 includes a pressing portion 121, which extends out of the first shell 110 from the second opening 11111; in the second position, the pressing portion 121 presses the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100 to unlock the crystal head 3100; in the third position, the pressing portion 121 at least partially blocks the network port 2100 to limit the insertion of the crystal head 3100 into the network port 2100.
[0111] The pressing portion 121 is a convex portion protruding from the side surface of the pushing member 120 facing the second wall 1111 .
[0112] In some embodiments, a second opening 11111 is formed on the second wall 1111 for the pressing portion 121 to pass through the first housing 110 and extend to a wall portion of the first housing 110 close to the network port 2100 in the first direction X.
[0113] It can be understood that when the pushing member 120 is in the second position, the pressing portion 121 can be flush with the wall of the first shell 110 close to the network port 2100 in the first direction X or protrude from the wall of the first shell 110 close to the network port 2100 in the first direction X, so as to reduce the risk of the elastic arm 3110 passing through the second opening 11111 into the first shell 110 when the network cable 3000 is pulled out, causing the risk of the crystal head 3100 being stuck.
[0114] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The receiving groove 1211 is provided with a guide surface at one end close to the first wall 1121 , and the guide surface is used to guide the elastic arm 3110 to leave the receiving groove 1211 when the pushing member 120 is located at the second position.
[0115] In this embodiment, the pressing portion 121 of the first shell 110 extending from the second opening 11111 presses the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100 at the second position to unlock the crystal head 3100. At the same time, at the third position, the network port 2100 is at least partially blocked to limit the insertion of the crystal head 3100 into the network port 2100. The structure is simple and easy to implement.
[0116] According to some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 2-Figure 5 , and please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 The lock body module 100 provided in some embodiments of the present application is a cross-sectional view at the elastic limiting member 140. The lock body module 100 further includes an elastic limiting member 140; the elastic limiting member 140 is disposed on the push member 120; the inner wall of the first housing 110 is provided with a first limiting groove 11112 and a second limiting groove 11113; when the push member 120 is in the first position, the elastic limiting member 140 cooperates with the first limiting groove 11112; when the push member 120 is in the third position, the elastic limiting member 140 cooperates with the second limiting groove 11113.
[0117] The first limiting groove 11112 and the second limiting groove 11113 are groove-shaped limiting structures arranged on the inner wall of the first shell 110 .
[0118] In some embodiments, the first limiting groove 11112 and the second limiting groove 11113 are arranged on the inner surface of the second wall 1111 and are spaced apart along the first direction X. The elastic limiting member 140 is arranged on the side of the pushing member 120 facing the second wall 1111 in the second direction Y.
[0119] As the name implies, the elastic stopper 140 is a structural member capable of elastic deformation. For example, the elastic stopper 140 can be a rubber block, a spring leaf, etc., which can provide a certain elastic force to the structural member applying external force to the elastic stopper 140 when elastically deformed.
[0120] In some embodiments, the elastic stopper 140 can be a bumping ball, which is a part used to provide pressure and positioning. Exemplarily, the bumping ball includes a cylinder, a spring and a ball, one end of the cylinder has an opening, the ball is arranged in the cylinder, and the spring is used to provide elastic force to the ball, so that part of the ball is exposed to the outside through the opening, and the ball blocks the opening. During use, the part of the ball exposed to the outside through the opening is used to abut against the first limiting groove 11112 and the second limiting groove 11113.
[0121] Specifically, when the push member 120 moves from the first position to the third position under the action of an external force, the elastic limiting member 140 abuts against the groove wall of the first limiting groove 11112 and undergoes a certain elastic deformation, so that the elastic limiting member 140 disengages from the first limiting groove 11112 and moves toward the direction close to the second limiting groove 11113. After entering the second limiting groove 11113, the elastic limiting member 140 elastically recovers and cooperates with the second limiting groove 11113, so that after the external force on the push member 120 is removed, the push member 120 is limited to the third position. Position; in the process of the pushing member 120 moving from the second position to the first position under the action of external force, the elastic limiting member 140 abuts against the groove wall of the second limiting groove 11113 and undergoes a certain elastic deformation, so that the elastic limiting member 140 disengages from the second limiting groove 11113 and moves toward the direction close to the first limiting groove 11112. After entering the first limiting groove 11112, the elastic limiting member 140 elastically recovers and cooperates with the first limiting groove 11112, so that after the external force on the pushing member 120 is removed, the pushing member 120 is limited to the first position.
[0122] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3A structural member is disposed inside the first housing 110. When in the first position, the push member 120 abuts against the structural member to limit the push member 120 from further moving in the first direction X away from the third position. Figure 5 In the second position, the portion of the pusher 120 located in the first shell 110 is configured to abut against the inner wall of the first shell 110 close to the network port 2100 in the first direction X to limit the pusher 120 from moving further in the first direction X away from the first position.
[0123] In this embodiment, on the one hand, when the pushing member 120 is located in the first position, the elastic limiting member 140 cooperates with the first limiting groove 11112, so that when the pushing member 120 is located in the first position and no external force is applied, the elastic limiting member 140 can limit the pushing member 120 to the first position, thereby facilitating the locking assembly 130 to lock the pushing member 120 in the first position; when the pushing member 120 is located in the third position, the elastic limiting member 140 cooperates with the second limiting groove 11113, so that when the pushing member 120 is located in the third position and no external force is applied, the elastic limiting member 140 can limit the pushing member 120 to the third position, thereby facilitating the locking assembly 130 to lock the pushing member 120 in the third position. On the other hand, the elastic limit member 140 can be elastically deformed during the switching process between the first limit groove 11112 and the second limit groove 11113, thereby generating a sense of frustration in the process of entering or leaving the first limit groove 11112 and the second limit groove 11113, so as to remind the operator to push the member 120 to start moving or move into place.
[0124] According to some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 2-Figure 5 , and please refer to Figure 6 The second limiting groove 11113 has a first end and a second end that are relatively arranged, and the first end is located between the second end and the first limiting groove 11112; when the pushing member 120 is in the second position, the elastic limiting member 140 is located at the first end; when the pushing member 120 is in the third position, the elastic limiting member 140 is located at the second end.
[0125] Exemplarily, the first limiting hole 11114 is a hemispherical groove, the second groove is a strip groove, and the second groove extends along the first direction X.
[0126] In this embodiment, when the pusher 120 is at the second position, the elastic stopper 140 is at the first end. When the pusher 120 is at the third position, the elastic stopper 140 is at the second end. This facilitates the operator to unlock the crystal plug 3100 at the second position to unplug the network cable 3000, and then more easily drive the pusher 120 to the third position.
[0127] According to some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 2-Figure 5 , and please refer to Figure 6 The lock body module 100 further includes a first elastic member 150 ; the first elastic member 150 is disposed in the first housing 110 , and the first elastic member 150 is used to provide an elastic force to the push member 120 to drive the push member 120 to move toward the third position.
[0128] The first elastic member 150 is a structural member for providing elastic force to the push member 120 to drive the push member 120 to move to the first position. Exemplarily, the first elastic member 150 can be a rubber block, an elastic diaphragm or a spring.
[0129] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 The first elastic member 150 may be a spring, and the two ends of the spring are respectively in contact with the structural member in the first housing 110 and the push member 120. Specifically, when the push member 120 is in the first position, the first elastic member 150 is compressed, and the elastic force generated by the first elastic member 150 on the push member 120 is insufficient to deform the elastic limiting member 140 to disengage from the first limiting groove 11112; please refer to Figure 4 Then, after the push member 120 is released by the locking assembly 130, the push member 120 is driven to move to the second position under the action of external force to abut against the elastic arm 3110 and drive the elastic arm 3110 close to the crystal head 3100, so that the crystal head 3100 is in an unlocked state. At this time, the elastic limiting member 140 enters the second limiting groove 11113 and is located at the first end. The first elastic member 150 partially extends and continues to provide elastic force to the push member 120. However, since the push member 120 and the crystal head 3100 are in an abutting state, the push member 120 cannot continue to move to the third position, so it is limited to the second position by the first elastic member 150; please refer to Figure 5 , and then the crystal head 3100 is pulled out from the network port 2100, and the first elastic member 150 continues to extend, thereby driving the elastic limiting member 140 to move toward the second end in the second limiting groove 11113, so that the pushing member 120 automatically moves to the third position after the crystal head 3100 is pulled out, so that the pushing member 120 at least partially blocks the network port 2100.
[0130] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 6 The first elastic member 150 is used to provide elastic force to the pushing member 120 to drive the pushing member 120 to move to the third position, so that after the operator places the pushing member 120 in the second position and pulls out the network cable 3000 so that the pushing member 120 is no longer in contact with the crystal head 3100, the first elastic member 150 can drive the driving member 131 to move to the third position, thereby reducing the risk that the operator forgets to continue to drive the pushing member 120 to move to the third position, resulting in the network port 2100 being in an unlocked state after the network cable 3000 is pulled out.
[0131] According to some embodiments of the present application, there are multiple push members 120, and the multiple push members 120 are arranged at intervals in the first shell 110; the locking assembly 130 corresponds one-to-one to the push members 120; the lock body module 100 also includes multiple indicator lights 160; the multiple indicator lights 160 are arranged in the first shell 110, and the multiple indicator lights 160 correspond one-to-one to the push members 120; the indicator lights 160 are used to indicate the unlocking state of the corresponding push members 120.
[0132] The indicator light 160 is a lamp used to display the release and lock states of the pusher 120 corresponding to the corresponding locking assembly 130 .
[0133] It is understandable that there are many ways for the indicator light 160 to display the release and lock states. For example, the indicator light 160 can correspond to the lock state and the release state by turning off and on respectively; or, the indicator light 160 can correspond to the lock state and the release state respectively by lights of different colors.
[0134] In this embodiment, on the one hand, multiple pushing members 120 and multiple locking assemblies 130 are provided to facilitate the management of multiple network ports 2100; on the other hand, the indicator light 160 indicates the unlocking state of the corresponding pushing member 120, which facilitates the operator to understand the state of the pushing member 120 and reduces the risk of damage to the locking assembly 130 and the pushing assembly due to the forced movement of the pushing member 120 in the locked state.
[0135] According to some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , and please refer to Fig. 9 The locking assembly 130 includes a locking member 132 and a driving member 131; the driving member 131 is used to drive the locking member 132 to switch between a locking position and an unlocking position; when in the locking position, the locking member 132 locks the pushing member 120; when in the unlocking position, the locking member 132 releases the pushing member 120.
[0136] The driving member 131 is a driving element that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy for driving the locking member 132 to move.
[0137] The locking member 132 is a structural member used to abut against the pushing member 120 to provide an abutting force or a friction force to the pushing member 120 , thereby locking the pushing member 120 .

[0144] The connecting groove 127 is a groove-shaped structure disposed on a side of the pushing member 120 facing the locking member 132 and used to connect the third limiting groove 125 and the fourth limiting groove 126 .
[0145] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , along the first direction X, the third limiting groove 125, the connecting groove 127 and the fourth limiting groove 126 are arranged in sequence, the width direction of the connecting groove 127, the width direction of the third limiting groove 125 and the width direction of the fourth limiting groove 126 are all parallel to the third direction Z, the locking member 132 is a rectangular parallelepiped, the length of the locking member 132 is smaller than the width of the third limiting groove 125, smaller than the width of the fourth limiting groove 126, and larger than the width of the connecting groove 127; the length of the locking member 132 is smaller than the width of the connecting groove 127. Please refer to Figure 7 In the locked position, the length direction of the locking assembly 130 is parallel to the third direction Z, so that a portion of the locking member 132 abuts against the groove wall of the third limiting groove 125 or the fourth limiting groove 126 to limit the movement of the push member 120 along the first direction X; please refer to Figure 8 In the unlocked position, the width direction of the locking assembly 130 is parallel to the third direction Z, so that the locking member 132 can pass through the connecting groove 127, so that the locking member 132 can switch between the third limiting groove 125 and the fourth limiting groove 126, and then the pushing member 120 can switch between the first position and the third position.
[0146] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , and please refer to Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The third limiting groove 125, the fourth limiting groove 126 and the connecting groove 127 penetrate the pushing member 120 along the second direction Y, and a limiting hole 11114 corresponding to the locking member 132 is provided on the second wall 1111, one end of the locking member 132 is arranged at the rotation output end of the driving member 131, and the other end of the driving member 131 passes through the pushing member 120 and is rotatably arranged in the limiting hole 11114, and the hole wall of the limiting hole 11114 is provided with a convex portion, and the above-mentioned convex portion is respectively used to abut against the locking member 132 on both sides of the circumference of the limiting hole 11114, so as to limit the locking member 132 from continuing to rotate in the direction away from the unlocking position when the locking member 132 is in the locked position, and is used to limit the locking member 132 from continuing to rotate in the direction away from the locked position when the locking member 132 is in the unlocking position.

[0190] The network port locking device 1000 includes a guide rail 300 , which is disposed on the network device 2000 ; the lock body module 100 and the power supply module 200 are installed on the guide rail 300 .
[0191] In some embodiments, the network port 2100 of the network device 2000 is provided with mounting clips 310 on both sides in the third direction Z, and the mounting clips 310 are C-shaped.

[0192] In other embodiments, a glue layer for connecting with the network device 2000 is provided on one side of the guide rail 300 ; a receiving groove 3001 is provided on the side of the guide rail 300 facing the glue layer, and a magnetic member is provided in the receiving groove 3001 .

[0194] In summary, when locking the network port 2100 without the network cable 3000, the corresponding computer key is inserted into the power supply module, so that the computer key communicates wirelessly with the control circuit board 220 through the wireless power supply component 230 and provides power to the control circuit board 220. Then the control circuit board 220 provides power to the corresponding driving member 131, so that the driving member 131 drives the locking member 132 to move to the unlocking position, so that the pushing member 120 is released. At the same time, the control circuit board 220 provides power to the corresponding indicator light 160, and the corresponding indicator light 160 lights up to remind the operator that the pushing member 120 is in the unlocking position. In the movable state, the operator provides an external force to the push member 120 through the handle portion 122, and then the elastic limit member 140 is elastically deformed to slide out of the first limit groove 11112, and then the push member 120 and the elastic limit member 140 move to the third position along the first direction X, and then the elastic member slides into the first end of the first limit groove 11112 and elastically recovers, and the first elastic member 150 stretches to drive the push member 120 to move to the third position, thereby reducing the situation where the locking member 132 cannot be adapted to the fourth limit groove 126 due to the operator's failure to drive the push member 120 into place, resulting in the failure of locking the push member 120. When the push member 120 is in the third position, the push member 120 at least partially blocks the network port 2100. Since the crystal head 3100 and the network port 2100 are adapted, when the network port 2100 is blocked, the crystal head 3100 cannot be inserted into the network port 2100. During the movement of the pushing member 120 from the first position to the third position, the micro switch 170 is driven to move from the fourth position to the sixth position, so that the signal emitted by the micro switch 170 is changed from the first signal to the second signal. After receiving the signal change, the control circuit board 220 provides power to the driving member 131 again, so that the driving member 131 drives the locking member 132 to cooperate with the fourth limiting groove 126, thereby locking the pushing member 120 to limit the movement of the pushing member 120 relative to the first shell 110, thereby completing the locking of the network port 2100. Then the control circuit board 220 stops providing power to the indicator light 160, and the indicator light 160 goes out to remind the operator that the pushing member 120 is inoperable. At this time, the second indicator part 124 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211, and the operator can observe the yellow color through the first opening 11211 to understand that the network port 2100 is in a locked state.
[0195] When it is necessary to remove the network cable 3000 and lock the network port 2100 where the network cable 3000 is inserted, insert the corresponding computer key into the power supply module so that the computer key can communicate wirelessly with the control circuit board 220 through the wireless power supply component 230 and provide power to the control circuit board 220. Then the control circuit board 220 provides power to the corresponding driving member 131 so that the driving member 131 drives the locking member 132 to move to the unlocking position so that the pushing member 120 is released. At the same time, the control circuit board 220 provides power to the corresponding indicator light 160, and the corresponding indicator light 160 lights up to remind the operator that the pushing member 120 is in a movable state. The operator pushes the pushing member 120 through the handle portion 122. 120 provides an external force, and then the elastic limit member 140 elastically deforms to slide out of the first limit groove 11112, and then the pushing member 120 and the elastic limit member 140 move along the first direction X to the third position, and make the pressing part 121 of the pushing member 120 abut against the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100. With the movement of the pushing member 120, the pressing part 121 presses the elastic arm 3110 and compresses the elastic arm 3110, so that the crystal head 3100 can be pulled out of the network port 2100. At this time, due to the abutment with the elastic arm 3110, the first elastic member 150 cannot continue to extend, and the pushing member 120 is limited to the second position. At this time, the elastic limit member 140 is located at the first end of the second limit groove 11113. As the network cable 3000 is pulled out, the first elastic member 150 stretches to drive the push member 120 to move to the third position, thereby reducing the possibility that the locking member 132 cannot fit with the fourth limiting groove 126 due to the operator's failure to drive the push member 120 into place. When the push member 120 is in the third position, the push member 120 at least partially blocks the network port 2100. Since the crystal head 3100 and the network port 2100 are adapted, the crystal head 3100 cannot be inserted into the network port 2100 when the network port 2100 is blocked. During the movement of the pushing member 120 from the first position to the third position, the micro switch 170 is driven to move from the fourth position to the sixth position, so that the signal emitted by the micro switch 170 is changed from the first signal to the second signal. After receiving the signal change, the control circuit board 220 provides power to the driving member 131 again, so that the driving member 131 drives the locking member 132 to cooperate with the fourth limiting groove 126, thereby locking the pushing member 120 to limit the movement of the pushing member 120 relative to the first shell 110, thereby completing the locking of the network port 2100. Then the control circuit board 220 stops providing power to the indicator light 160, and the indicator light 160 goes out to remind the operator that the pushing member 120 is inoperable. At this time, the second indicator part 124 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211, and the operator can observe the yellow color through the first opening 11211 to understand that the network port 2100 is in a locked state.
[0196] When the network cable 3000 needs to be replaced, the corresponding computer key is inserted into the power supply module, so that the computer key can wirelessly communicate with the control circuit board 220 through the wireless power supply component 230 and provide power to the control circuit board 220. Then the control circuit board 220 provides power to the corresponding driving member 131, so that the driving member 131 drives the locking member 132 to move to the unlocking position, so that the pushing member 120 is released. At the same time, the control circuit board 220 provides power to the corresponding indicator light 160, and the corresponding indicator light 160 lights up to remind the operator that the pushing member 120 is in a movable state. The operator provides external force to the pushing member 120 through the handle part 122, and then The elastic limit member 140 is elastically deformed to slide out of the first limit groove 11112, and then the pushing member 120 and the elastic limit member 140 move along the first direction X to the third position, and the pressing portion 121 of the pushing member 120 abuts against the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100. As the pushing member 120 moves, the pressing portion 121 presses the elastic arm 3110 and compresses the elastic arm 3110, so that the crystal head 3100 can be pulled out of the network port 2100. At this time, due to the abutment with the elastic arm 3110, the first elastic member 150 cannot continue to extend, and the pushing member 120 is limited to the second position. At this time, the elastic limit member 140 is located at the first end of the second limit groove 11113. After the network cable 3000 is pulled out, an external force is provided to the pushing member 120 through the handle portion 122 to drive the pushing member 120 to return to the first position. At this time, the network port 2100 is opened, and the operator can insert the crystal plug 1001 for replacing the network cable 3000 into the network port 2100. Then, after the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100 pops out, at least one of the pushing member 120 and the first shell 110 can cover the elastic arm 3110, so that the operator will not accidentally touch the elastic arm 3110, thereby making the crystal head 3100 in a locked state and unable to be pulled out. After not receiving any signal changes for a long time, the control circuit board 220 again provides power to the driving member 131, so that the driving member 131 drives the locking member 132 to cooperate with the third limit groove 125, thereby locking the pushing member 120 to limit the movement of the pushing member 120 relative to the first shell 110, thereby completing the locking of the network port 2100. Then the control circuit board 220 stops providing power to the indicator light 160, and the indicator light 160 goes out to remind the operator that the pushing member 120 is inoperable. At this time, the first indicator part 123 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211, and the operator can observe the green color through the first opening 11211 to understand that the network cable 3000 is in a locked state.
[0197] When it is necessary to unlock the network port 2100 and insert the network cable 3000, insert the corresponding computer key into the power supply module, so that the computer key can communicate wirelessly with the control circuit board 220 through the wireless power supply component 230 and provide power to the control circuit board 220. Then the control circuit board 220 provides power to the corresponding driving member 131, so that the driving member 131 drives the locking member 132 to move to the unlocking position, so that the pushing member 120 is released. At the same time, the control circuit board 220 provides power to the corresponding indicator light 160, and the corresponding The indicator light 160 lights up to remind the operator that the pushing member 120 is in a movable state. The operator provides external force to the pushing member 120 through the handle portion 122, and then the elastic limiting member 140 elastically deforms to slide out of the second limiting groove 11113. Then the pushing member 120 and the elastic limiting member 140 move along the first direction X to the first position. Then the elastic limiting member 140 is adapted to the first limiting groove 11112 to limit the pushing member 120 from driving the first elastic member 150 to move to the third position under the action of the first elastic member 150. When the push member 120 is in the first position, the push member 120 does not block the network port 2100, so that the crystal head 3100 can be inserted into the network port 2100, and after the elastic arm 3110 of the crystal head 3100 pops out, at least one of the push member 120 and the first shell 110 can block the elastic arm 3110, so that the operator will not accidentally touch the elastic arm 3110, thereby making the crystal head 3100 in a locked state and cannot be pulled out. When the push member 120 moves from the third position to the first position, the micro switch 170 is driven to move from the sixth position to the fourth position, thereby making the signal sent by the micro switch 170 change from the second signal to the first signal, and controlling After receiving the signal change, the circuit board 220 provides power to the driving member 131 again, so that the driving member 131 drives the locking member 132 to cooperate with the third limit groove 125, thereby locking the pushing member 120 to limit the movement of the pushing member 120 relative to the first shell 110, thereby completing the locking of the network cable 3000, and then controls the circuit board 220 to stop providing power to the indicator light 160, and the indicator light 160 goes out to remind the operator that the pushing member 120 is not operable. At this time, the first indicator part 123 is exposed to the outside through the first opening 11211, and the operator can observe the green color through the first opening 11211 to understand that the network cable 3000 is in a locked state.
