Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of communications, in particular to a solar repeater. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of Internet technology, electronic terminal products are becoming more and more abundant, their functions are becoming more and more powerful, and the requirements for network signals are becoming higher and higher. However, in some outdoor scenes, such as open-air squares with heavy traffic, camping in the wild, etc., the signal is often poor. Therefore, it is necessary to provide users with WiFi network extension services with large coverage and stable signals. At this time, a repeater with LAN signal amplification and long-distance communication functions can meet this demand.

[0003] The main function of a repeater is to extend the distance of network transmission by retransmitting or forwarding data signals, which is equivalent to a transfer station. It connects to the remote WiFi through an antenna, amplifies it, and then sends a WiFi signal to connect the electronic terminal product to the new WiFi to achieve network connection. This solves the problem of poor signal in outdoor scenes.

[0004] Repeaters used outdoors are generally equipped with a solar panel for power supply. However, the existing solar repeaters on the market will have their sealing effect greatly reduced after being used outdoors for a long time and exposed to the sun. When subjected to severe weather such as storms, water can easily enter the interior, resulting in unstable signals and even directly burning out internal circuit equipment, making it unable to work. In view of this, we propose a solar repeater to improve the sealing effect and solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A solar repeater comprises a connecting plate, with photovoltaic panels and a shell being arranged on both sides of the connecting plate respectively, a control mainboard and a battery being connected inside the shell; a groove is arranged at the bottom of the shell, and an external connection port of the control mainboard is located in the groove; the connecting plate is of inclined design; a cover plate is detachably connected to a side of the shell away from the connecting plate.

[0008] Preferably, it also includes a waterproof cover; the waterproof cover and the groove are engaged with each other.

[0009] Preferably, the side wall of the waterproof cover is provided with a sealing convex strip.

[0010] Preferably, a protruding strip is provided on one side of the housing away from the connecting plate, and a sealing groove is provided on the cover plate; the protruding strip and the sealing groove are engaged with each other.

[0011] Preferably, a sealing gasket is provided between the raised strip and the sealing groove.

[0012] Preferably, the connecting plate is fixedly connected with supporting ribs, and the battery is fixed on the supporting ribs; the connecting plate is provided with wire holes; the wire holes and the supporting ribs are both located in the outer shell.

[0013] Preferably, the connecting plate and the housing are integrally formed.

[0014] Preferably, a connecting nut is provided on the surface of the cover plate.

[0015] Preferably, a countersunk through hole is provided on the cover plate, and the connecting nut is of T-shaped design; the connecting nut passes through the countersunk through hole.

[0016] Preferably, a reinforcing rib is provided on a side of the cover plate close to the housing.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a solar repeater, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. The solar repeater, through the tilted design of the connecting plate, will block most of the sunlight on the lower shell in daily use, thereby avoiding exposure to the sun, preventing the aging of the shell and cover over time, which will lead to a decrease in the sealing effect of the connection, thereby improving the stability of the seal.

[0019] 2. The solar repeater has the external socket of the control mainboard designed inside the groove, and the opening of the groove is tilted downward. This reduces the possibility of water entering from the external socket even in rainy, snowy, or severe weather such as storms, thereby improving the stability of the seal.

[0033] Embodiment 1:

[0034] Reference Figure 1-Figure 10A solar repeater includes a connecting plate 1, a photovoltaic panel 101 and a shell 2 are respectively arranged on both sides of the connecting plate 1, the photovoltaic panel 101 is fixed to the side wall of the connecting plate 1, the shell 2 is located at the center of the connecting plate 1, the shell 2 is rectangular, a control mainboard 3 and a battery 302 are connected to the shell 2, and a wireless signal transceiver module and a signal amplifier, as well as some other processing modules are arranged on the control mainboard 3. For details, please refer to the application number: CN202321875299.6, the disclosed wireless signal transceiver module and signal amplifier and others, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 Signal antennas 301 are connected to both sides of the control main board 3. The signal antenna 301 on one side is responsible for cooperating with the wireless signal transceiver module to receive wireless signals, that is, to receive WiFi signals. Then, the wireless signals are processed and amplified by the signal amplifier and then transmitted by the signal antenna 301 on the other side for connection and use by people in outdoor activities.

[0035] The photovoltaic panel 101 is electrically connected to the battery 302 , and the photovoltaic panel 101 generates electricity to charge the battery 302 . The battery 302 is electrically connected to the control mainboard 3 to supply power to the control mainboard 3 .

[0036] The battery 302 is fixed in the housing 2 by gluing, and the control mainboard 3 is fixed in the housing 2 by bolts.

[0037] A groove 203 is provided at the bottom of the shell 2, and the groove 203 is concave. The external socket of the control motherboard 3 is located in the groove 203. The external socket of the control motherboard 3 refers to some Type-C interfaces, or some other USB interfaces, which are used to connect data cables of other devices.

[0038] A cover plate 4 is detachably connected to a side of the housing 2 away from the connecting plate 1 . The cover plate 4 is fixedly connected to the housing 2 by bolts, and a sealing treatment is performed at the connection point.

[0039] When installing and using, the solar repeater is connected to other objects, such as brackets, such as Figure 1 In order to allow the photovoltaic panel 101 to receive more sunlight and improve the power generation efficiency, the connecting plate 1 is installed in an inclined state, that is, the connecting plate 1 is designed to be inclined, and the angle between the connecting plate 1 and the horizontal plane is between 30-60°, preferably 45°. The photovoltaic panel 101 is above the connecting plate 1, and the shell 2 is below the connecting plate 1. At this time, the bottom of the shell 2 mentioned above refers to the end of the inclined shell 2 close to the bottom. At this time, the opening of the groove 203 is inclined downward, so the external sockets of the control main board 3 are also all inclined downward, and the external sockets of the control main board 3 are located inside the groove 203.

[0040] Through the inclined design of the connecting plate 1, in daily use, most of the sunlight on the lower shell 2 will be blocked, thereby avoiding exposure to the sun and preventing the aging of the shell 2 and the cover plate 4 over time, which will cause the sealing effect of the connection to decrease, thereby improving the stability of the seal.

[0041] At the same time, the external socket of the control main board 3 is designed inside the groove 203, and the opening of the groove 203 is tilted downward, which reduces the possibility of water entering from the external socket even in rainy, snowy, or stormy weather, thereby improving the stability of the seal.

[0042] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 The cover plate 4 is also provided with an upward arrow to avoid reverse installation during installation.

[0043] The control mainboard 3 is also connected to an external network interface 303 via a network cable. The network interface 303 is also located at the bottom of the housing 2 .

[0044] According to actual scene requirements, the electronic terminal product can also be connected to the network interface 303 via a network cable to achieve wired Internet access.

[0045] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Fig.10 The solar repeater disclosed in this embodiment also includes a waterproof cover 6. The waterproof cover 6 is made of rubber material, has a certain elasticity, and can be deformed. The waterproof cover 6 is engaged with the groove 203.

[0046] In daily work, the external socket of the control main board 3 is not used most of the time. At this time, the waterproof cover 6 is plugged into the groove 203, as shown in FIG. Fig.10 , sealing the groove 203 can further improve the sealing effect.

[0047] like Fig.10 The side wall of the waterproof cover 6 is provided with sealing ridges 601, and there are two sealing ridges 601. The sealing ridges 601 are made of the same material as the waterproof cover 6, which is also rubber material. The sealing ridges 601 and the waterproof cover 6 are integrally formed.

[0048] like Fig.10 The inner wall of the groove 203 also has two matching grooves. When the waterproof cover 6 is inserted into the groove 203, the sealing convex strip 601 is just stuck in the corresponding groove, which further improves the sealing effect and also increases the friction with the inner wall of the groove 203 to prevent the waterproof cover 6 from falling off accidentally.

[0049] Embodiment 2:

[0050] Reference Figure 1-Figure 10, which is basically the same as Example 1. On the basis of Example 1, the overall technical solution is further optimized to improve the sealing performance.

[0051] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 A raised strip 403 is provided on one side of the housing 2 away from the connecting plate 1 , and a sealing groove 402 is provided on the cover plate 4 ; the raised strip 403 and the sealing groove 402 are engaged with each other.

[0052] When the cover plate 4 is fixed to the housing 2 by bolts and the housing 2 is closed, the raised strip 403 and the sealing groove 402 are engaged with each other to improve the sealing performance and prevent water leakage from the connection between the cover plate 4 and the housing 2.

[0053] like Figure 5 and Fig.10 A sealing gasket 404 is provided between the raised strip 403 and the sealing groove 402. The sealing gasket 404 is also made of rubber. When the raised strip 403 and the sealing groove 402 are engaged with each other, the sealing gasket 404 is squeezed and deformed, thereby further improving the sealing performance.

[0054] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Fig. 9 , the connecting plate 1 is fixedly connected with a supporting rib 202, such as Figure 6 There are two rows of support ribs 202, distributed on both sides of the inside of the shell 2, with 3-8 ribs in each row, preferably 5 ribs, and an aisle is formed between the two rows of support ribs 202, and the battery 302 is fixed on the support ribs 202; a wire hole 201 is provided on the connecting plate 1; the wire hole 201 and the support ribs 202 are both located inside the shell 2.

[0055] The wire holes 201 are used for wiring electrical connections between the photovoltaic panel 101 and the battery 302 .

[0056] The photovoltaic panel 101 is fixed on the connecting plate 1 and completely covers the wire hole 201 . Therefore, there is no need to worry about water leakage at the wire hole 201 .

[0057] The battery 302 is fixed to the support rib 202 by gluing. Fig.10 There is a gap at the bottom of the battery 302, and the aisle between the two rows of supporting ribs 202 is also in this gap. At this time, this gap is used for electrical connection and wiring between the battery 302 and the control main board 3.

[0058] Furthermore, the supporting ribs 202 also play a role in strengthening the load-bearing capacity of the connecting plate 1 , because the gravity of the photovoltaic panel 101 will be fully applied to the connecting plate 1 .

[0059] The connecting plate 1 and the housing 2 are integrally formed, and the integral forming can avoid the generation of connecting gaps and improve the sealing performance.

[0060] The connecting plate 1 and the supporting ribs 202 are also integrally formed.

[0061] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig. 9 A connecting nut 5 is provided on the surface of the cover plate 4. The connecting nut 5 is made of metal and is used to connect to an external object, such as a bracket.

[0062] like Figure 8 and Fig.10 The cover plate 4 is provided with a countersunk through hole 501 , or a stepped through hole, which is larger inside and smaller outside. The connecting nut 5 is of T-shaped design; the connecting nut 5 passes through the countersunk through hole 501 .

[0063] The connecting nut 5 is glued into the countersunk through hole 501 .

[0064] The connecting nut 5 is made of metal.

[0065] The T-shaped connecting nut 5 can transfer the applied force to the cover plate 4, thereby preventing the connecting nut 5 from accidentally falling off due to its own gravity after working for a long time.

[0066] like Figure 8 A reinforcing rib 401 is provided on one side of the cover plate 4 close to the housing 2 to enhance the strength of the cover plate 4 .

[0067] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
