[0002] Wireless networks have been widely used in daily life. However, due to the blocking effect of walls, the transmission of wireless network signals will be affected, resulting in a slowdown in network speed. To solve this problem, people usually adopt the method of adding routers or setting up repeaters to improve network speed and meet the network requirements of terminal devices.

[0003] A combined router with signal expansion, with the publication number CN118368242B, includes a connection base. There is a router placement area at the upper end of the connection base, and multiple expansion unit placement areas are provided at the upper end of the connection base. Guide grooves are symmetrically opened inside each expansion unit placement area, and an auxiliary installation and protection mechanism is slidably installed inside each guide groove. The auxiliary installation and protection mechanism includes guide blocks. Repeaters are fixedly installed between every two guide blocks. Each repeater is located above the guide block, and each repeater is located inside the expansion unit placement area.

[0004] The above device can play a role in shielding the insertion interface when the repeater does not need to be expanded, reducing connection problems or failures caused by dust and debris blockage. However, when disassembling and installing the repeater in the above device, one hand needs to lift the pulling plate, and the other hand needs to operate the repeater, which is rather inconvenient and affects the installation efficiency of the repeater.

[0005] Therefore, the present invention provides a combined router with signal expansion to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0008] A combined router with signal expansion, including a mounting plate. A connecting seat and four partition plates are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the mounting plate. The connecting seat and the four partition plates divide the space at the top of the mounting plate into a first placement cavity and three second placement cavities. A router body is fixedly installed inside the first placement cavity. Support plates are fixedly connected inside the three second placement cavities. Repeaters are arranged on the upper surfaces of the three support plates. Plug connectors are arranged on the four repeaters. Plug interfaces adapted to the plug connectors are opened inside the connecting seat, and the plug connectors are inserted into the plug interfaces.

[0009] A slider is fixedly installed at the bottom of the repeater. A first sliding groove is opened inside the support plate, and the slider is slidably connected inside the first sliding groove. A self-locking mechanism and an automatic ejection mechanism are arranged on the support plate. An occlusion mechanism for occluding the plug interface is arranged on the mounting plate.

[0010] Preferably, the self-locking mechanism includes a first rectangular groove opened inside the support plate. A first sliding plate is slidably connected inside the first rectangular groove. A first spring is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the first sliding plate, and the other end of the first spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first rectangular groove. A limiting rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the first sliding plate away from the first spring.

[0011] Preferably, an inclined groove and a limiting hole are opened inside the slider. The depth of the inclined groove gradually becomes shallower from inside to outside, and the limiting hole communicates with the end of the inclined groove away from the connecting seat. The end of the limiting rod away from the first sliding plate is inserted into the limiting hole.

[0012] Preferably, a pulling plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the first sliding plate, and the pulling plate is attached to the outer surface of the mounting plate.

[0013] Preferably, the automatic ejection mechanism includes a second sliding groove opened inside the support plate. A push plate is slidably connected inside the second sliding groove, and the push plate is fixedly connected to the slider.

[0014] Preferably, a guiding rod is fixedly connected inside the second sliding groove. A through hole for the guiding rod to pass through is opened inside the push plate. A second sliding plate is slidably connected to the outer surface of the guiding rod, and the second sliding plate is in contact with the push plate. A second spring is fixedly connected to the surface of the second sliding plate away from the push plate, and the other end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second sliding groove.

[0015] Preferably, the occlusion mechanism includes a dust-proof plate. Second rectangular grooves for the dust-proof plate to slide up and down are opened inside the mounting plate and the support plate. A moving plate is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the dust-proof plate.

[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0019] 1. Through the cooperation between the slider, the first sliding groove and the self-locking mechanism of the present invention, when the repeater is pushed towards the connection seat, the inclined surface of the inclined groove on the slider pushes the limiting rod to automatically retract, eliminating the need for manual lifting operation, enabling the one-handed insertion and installation of the repeater. After reaching the position, the limiting rod is inserted into the limiting hole under the action of the first spring to complete automatic locking, thus significantly improving the installation efficiency.

[0020] 2.

Specific embodiments

[0031] The following will describe each embodiment of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principle of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0032] As Figure 1-8 shown, a combined router with signal expansion includes a mounting plate 1. A connecting seat 2 and four partition boards 3 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the mounting plate 1. The connecting seat 2 and the four partition boards 3 divide the space at the top of the mounting plate 1 into a first placement cavity and three second placement cavities. A router body 4 is fixedly installed inside the first placement cavity. Support plates 8 are fixedly connected inside the three second placement cavities. Repeaters 5 are arranged on the upper surfaces of the three support plates 8. Plug connectors 7 are arranged on the four repeaters 5. Sockets 6 adapted to the plug connectors 7 are opened inside the connecting seat 2, and the plug connectors 7 are inserted into the sockets 6. A slider 10 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the repeater 5. A first chute 9 is opened inside the support plate 8, and the slider 10 is slidably connected inside the first chute 9. The shape of the support plate 8 inside the second placement cavity is adapted to the shape of the repeater 5. The slider 10 can slide longitudinally along the first chute 9. When the slider 10 is completely pushed into the first chute 9, the plug connector 7 of the repeater 5 will be inserted into the socket 6 of the connecting seat 2 to achieve electrical connection.

[0033] A support column is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 1. The other end of the support column is fixedly connected to a bottom plate 28. The support column is a hollow stainless steel pipe, and its lower end is connected to the bottom plate 28 by bolts. The bottom plate 28 is a rectangular plastic plate with an anti-slip pad attached to the bottom to ensure stable placement of the device.

[0034] A self-locking mechanism is provided on the support plate 8, and the self-locking mechanism includes a first rectangular groove opened inside the support plate 8, a first slide plate 13 is slidably connected inside the first rectangular groove, a first spring 15 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the first slide plate 13, the other end of the first spring 15 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the first rectangular groove, and a side of the first slide plate 13 away from the first spring 15 is fixedly connected to a limiting rod 14. The first slide plate 13 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and its two sides are gap-matched with the inner wall of the first rectangular groove. When the slider 10 is pushed into the first slide groove 9, the limiting rod 14 will be inserted into the limiting hole 12 under the pressure of the first spring 15, so as to fix the repeater 5.

[0035] An inclined groove 11 and a limiting hole 12 are provided inside the slider 10. The depth of the inclined groove 11 becomes shallower from the inside to the outside, and the limiting hole 12 is connected to the end of the inclined groove 11 away from the connecting seat 2. The end of the limiting rod 14 away from the first slide plate 13 is inserted into the limiting hole 12. The inclined groove 11 is a shallow outer and deep inner inclined surface structure, and the depth decreases from the side close to the connecting seat 2 to the outside, which is used to push the limiting rod 14 to retract when the slider 10 slides. The limiting hole 12 is located at the end of the inclined groove 11 away from the connecting seat 2. When the slider 10 slides until the plug connector 7 is fully inserted into the plug interface 6, the limiting hole 12 is aligned with the limiting rod 14. At this time, the limiting rod 14 is inserted into the limiting hole 12 under the action of the first spring 15 to achieve mechanical locking.

[0036] A pull plate 16 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the first slide plate 13 , and the pull plate 16 fits the outer surface of the mounting plate 1 . The user can pull the pull plate 16 with one hand to disengage the limiting rod 14 from the limiting hole 12 and release the locked state.

[0037] The support plate 8 is provided with an automatic pop-up mechanism, which includes a second slide groove 17 opened inside the support plate 8, a push plate 21 is slidably connected inside the second slide groove 17, and the push plate 21 is fixedly connected to the slider 10, a guide rod 18 is fixedly connected inside the second slide groove 17, a through hole is opened inside the push plate 21 for the guide rod 18 to pass through, a second slide plate 20 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the guide rod 18, and the second slide plate 20 contacts the push plate 21, a second spring 19 is fixedly connected to the side of the second slide plate 20 away from the push plate 21, and the other end of the second spring 19 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second slide groove 17, when the slider 10 is slidably installed in the direction of the connecting seat 2, the push plate 21 will compress the second spring 19 to store energy, and when the self-locking mechanism is unlocked, the second spring 19 releases the elastic force to push the second slide plate 20, and then drives the slider 10 and the repeater 5 to pop out through the push plate 21.

[0038] The mounting plate 1 is provided with a shielding mechanism for shielding the mating interface 6. The shielding mechanism includes a dust shielding plate 24. Second rectangular grooves for the dust shielding plate 24 to slide up and down are formed inside both the mounting plate 1 and the support plate 8. A moving plate 25 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the dust shielding plate 24. A third spring 26 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the moving plate 25, and the other end of the third spring 26 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 1. When the relay 5 is not installed, the third spring 26 is in a normal state. At this time, the dust shielding plate 24 will close the mating interface 6 to achieve dust-proof protection for the mating interface 6. After the relay 5 is installed, the third spring 26 is in a stretched state. At this time, the dust shielding plate 24 will move downward to expose the mating interface 6.

[0039] A third sliding groove 22 is formed inside the mounting plate 1. A wedge-shaped plate 23 and a pressing column 27 are slidably connected inside the third sliding groove 22. The wedge-shaped plate 23 is fixedly connected to the dust shielding plate 24. The top end of the pressing column 27 is fixedly connected to the side of the slider 10 away from the router body 4. The bottom end of the pressing column 27 abuts against the inclined surface of the pressing column 27. When the slider 10 slides and installs towards the connection seat 2, the pressing column 27 squeezes the wedge-shaped plate 23 downward, thereby being able to drive the wedge-shaped plate 23 and the dust shielding plate 24 to move downward to expose the mating interface 6. When the slider 10 is disassembled and ejected, the pressing column 27 gradually disengages from the wedge-shaped plate 23, and the third spring 26 will push the dust shielding plate 24 upward to reset and shield the mating interface 6.

[0040] Working principle: When installing the relay 5, push the relay 5 with one hand to slide towards the connection seat 2. At this time, the inclined groove 11 on the slider 10 will push the limit rod 14 to retract. At the same time, the pressing column 27 will squeeze the wedge-shaped plate 23 to make the dust shielding plate 24 move downward to expose the mating interface 6. When the plug 7 is fully inserted into the mating interface 6, the limit rod 14 will align with the limit hole 12, and then it will be automatically locked under the action of the first spring 15 to complete the installation.

[0041] When disassembling the relay 5, pull the pull plate 16 to make the limit rod 14 disengage from the limit hole 12, and then the second spring 19 will push the relay 5 to automatically eject. During the process of the slider 10 ejecting, it will drive the pressing column 27 to gradually disengage from the wedge-shaped plate 23. After that, the third spring 26 will push the dust shielding plate 24 upward to cover the mating interface 6 to achieve dust-proof protection.
