Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of switches, in particular to a low-power computer network communication switch. Background Art

[0002] A switch is a device that completes the information exchange function in a communication system. It can provide an exclusive electrical signal path for any two network nodes connected to the switch. The most common switch is the Ethernet switch. Other common switches include telephone voice switches, fiber optic switches, etc.

[0003] Among them, the "computer network switch" disclosed in the authorization number "CN219678503U" is set up through a specific technical structure. By placing the switch body in the limit frame on the table board, the outer wall of the switch body will contact and extrude with the two extrusion arc blocks. The extrusion arc blocks have an arc surface, which makes it easy for the switch body to enter between the two jackets, so that the switch body can be easily installed and fixed on the table board to prevent the switch body from falling to the ground and being damaged;

[0004] However, although the switch can be fixedly installed on the table to avoid falling and being damaged, the switch often generates high power consumption during operation, which puts a certain amount of pressure on the switch itself and is prone to malfunction due to excessive load power consumption. Currently, traditional heat dissipation is performed by cooling fans to dissipate heat inside the switch on both sides, but the heat dissipation air blown in from both sides by the cooling fans forms counter-flow airflow, making the airflow inside the switch chaotic and difficult to discharge, thereby reducing the heat dissipation effect and increasing energy consumption losses.

[0005] Currently, no effective solution has been proposed for the problems in the related technologies. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a low-power computer network communication switch, which can sense the operating temperature inside the switch main body shell through a temperature sensor. When the temperature inside the switch main body shell is low, the speed regulator controls the speed of the cooling fan so that the cooling fan maintains a minimum speed to dissipate heat inside the switch main body shell. When the temperature inside the switch main body shell is too high, the speed regulator increases the speed of the cooling fan, and the cooling fan blows air to the inside of both sides of the switch main body shell. The air guide effect of the air guide plate causes the air flow to blow downward to the switch mainboard, so that the heat emitted by the switch mainboard during operation flows along the air flow to the air guide arc plate, and then the hot air flow flows upward and is discharged through the arc-shaped air guide of the air guide arc plate, thereby solving the problem that the hot air inside the switch main body shell forms a counter-airflow, resulting in poor heat dissipation and increased energy consumption.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0008] A low-power computer network communication switch comprises a switch main body shell, a cooling fan, a cover plate and a switch mainboard, wherein the cooling fan is movably mounted on both sides of the switch main body shell, the cover plate is movably mounted on the top of the switch main body shell, the switch mainboard is fixedly mounted inside the switch main body shell, fixing plates are fixedly mounted on the front and rear ends of the cooling fan, the fixing plates are fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the switch main body shell by bolts, a temperature sensor is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the cooling fan, a speed regulator is fixedly connected to the output end on the inner side of the cooling fan, air guide plates are fixedly mounted on both sides of the bottom of the cover plate, and air guide arc plates are fixedly mounted on both sides of the top of the switch mainboard.

[0013] Preferably, a supporting foot is fixedly installed on the bottom of the switch main body shell, and a suction cup is fixedly installed on the bottom of the supporting foot.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model provides a low-power computer network communication switch, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. The utility model uses a cooling fan to blow air inside the two sides of the switch main body shell, and uses the air guiding effect of the air guide plate to make the air flow blow downward to the switch main board, so that the heat emitted by the switch main board during operation flows along the air flow to the air guide arc plate, and then the arc-shaped air guide of the air guide arc plate makes the hot air flow flow upward and be discharged, avoiding the formation of counter-flow of hot air inside the switch main body shell caused by blowing on both sides, and solving the problem of poor heat dissipation effect and increased energy consumption caused by chaotic air flow inside the switch main body shell;

[0023] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] As introduced in the background technology, there are deficiencies in the prior art. In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application proposes a low-power computer network communication switch.

[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 5A low-power computer network communication switch comprises a switch main body shell 1, a cooling fan 101, a cover plate 105 and a switch main board 2, wherein the cooling fan 101 is movably mounted on both sides of the switch main body shell 1, the cover plate 105 is movably mounted on the top of the switch main body shell 1, the switch main board 2 is fixedly mounted inside the switch main body shell 1, a fixing plate 102 is fixedly mounted on the front and rear ends of the cooling fan 101, the fixing plate 102 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the switch main body shell 1 by bolts, a temperature sensor 103 is fixedly mounted on the inner side of the cooling fan 101, a speed regulator 104 is fixedly connected to the output end of the inner side of the cooling fan 101, air guide plates 106 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the bottom of the cover plate 105, and air guide arc plates 201 are fixedly mounted on both sides of the top of the switch main board 2.

[0026] Specifically, the operating temperature inside the switch body shell 1 can be sensed by the temperature sensor 103 and the temperature can be transmitted to the controller in real time. The controller can control the speed regulator 104 according to the temperature value. When the temperature inside the switch body shell 1 is low, the speed regulator 104 controls the speed of the cooling fan 101 so that the cooling fan 101 maintains the lowest speed to dissipate the heat inside the switch body shell 1. When the temperature inside the switch body shell 1 is too high, the speed regulator 104 increases the speed of the cooling fan 101, and the cooling fan 101 blows air to the inside of both sides of the switch body shell 1. The air guide effect of the air guide plate 106 makes the air flow blow downward to the switch mainboard 2, so that the heat emitted by the switch mainboard 2 during operation flows along the air flow to the air guide arc plate 201, and then the arc-shaped air guide of the air guide arc plate 201 makes the hot air flow flow upward and be discharged, thereby solving the problem that the hot air inside the switch main shell 1 forms a counter-airflow, resulting in poor heat dissipation and increased energy consumption.

[0027] Furthermore, dust screens 107 are fixedly installed on the heat dissipation openings on both sides of the switch body shell 1, and heat dissipation holes 108 are evenly opened inside the cover plate 105;

[0028] Specifically, the dustproof net 107 is used to prevent the inside of the switch main body shell 1 from dust, so that dust from the outside can be prevented from entering the inside of the switch main body shell 1 and accumulating on the switch mainboard 2 when the cooling fan 101 is cooling, thereby reducing the cooling effect. The heat dissipation holes 108 facilitate the upward hot air flow inside the switch main body shell 1 to be discharged, thereby improving the cooling effect inside the switch main body shell 1.

[0029] Furthermore, a support block 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the inner wall of the switch body shell 1, and handles 109 are fixedly installed on both sides of the top of the cover plate 105;

[0030] Specifically, the cover plate 105 is conveniently installed or removed by the handle 109, and the cover plate 105 is supported by the support block 3, so that the cover plate 105 is installed more stably;

[0031] Furthermore, one side of the top of the switch mainboard 2 is electrically fixedly connected to an energy-saving adjustment module 202, and the other side of the top of the switch mainboard 2 is electrically fixedly connected to a communication interface module 203;

[0032] Specifically, when there are fewer users using the computer and the load of the switch mainboard 2 is small, the energy-saving adjustment module 202 automatically adjusts to the energy-saving and low-power consumption mode to reduce power consumption, and the communication interface module 203 optimizes the power consumption output of the connection end and reduces the power consumption output of the connection end that is not connected to the interface, thereby achieving energy saving effect;

[0033] Furthermore, the front and rear ends of both sides of the bottom of the cover plate 105 are fixedly installed with fixing blocks 4, the inside of the fixing blocks 4 is fixedly installed with springs 401, and the sides of the fixing blocks 4 that are away from each other are penetrated and slid into and installed with limit blocks 402, and the front and rear ends of both sides of the switch body shell 1 are penetrated and provided with limit holes 403, and the limit blocks 402 are slid into and installed in the inside of the limit holes 403;

[0034] Furthermore, a support foot 5 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the switch body shell 1, and a suction cup 501 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the support foot 5;

[0035] Specifically, when the cover 105 is installed on the top of the switch main body shell 1, the elastic force of the spring 401 causes the limit block 402 to extend to the inside of the limit hole 403, so that the cover 105 is fixedly installed on the top of the switch main body shell 1, and is adsorbed on the desktop through the suction cup 501, so that the support feet 5 can more stably support the switch main body shell 1, thereby preventing the switch main body shell 1 from sliding off the desktop and being damaged.

[0036] Working principle: First, the staff installs the cooling fan 101 on both sides of the switch body shell 1, and extends the bolts through the fixing plate 102 to the screw holes on the inner wall of the switch body shell 1, and fixes the cooling fan 101 inside the switch body shell 1. Then, the cover plate 105 is installed on the top of the switch body shell 1. The elastic force of the spring 401 extends the limit block 402 to the inside of the limit hole 403, so that the cover plate 105 is fixedly installed on the top of the switch body shell 1. Then, the user's connection line is connected to the interface at the front end of the switch body shell 1. When the temperature sensor 103 senses that the temperature inside the switch body shell 1 is too high, the speed of the cooling fan 101 is increased through the speed regulator 104 to make the cooling fan The fan 101 blows air to the inside of the switch body shell 1 for heat dissipation, and the air flow is blown downward to the switch mainboard 2 through the air guiding effect of the air guide plate 106, so that the heat emitted by the switch mainboard 2 during operation flows along the air flow to the air guide arc plate 201, and then the hot air flow flows upward through the arc-shaped guide of the air guide arc plate 201, and the hot air flow is discharged through the heat dissipation hole 108. When the temperature sensor 103 senses that the temperature inside the switch body shell 1 is low, the speed of the cooling fan 101 is controlled to be reduced through the speed regulator 104, thereby reducing energy consumption. When there are fewer computer users, the load of the switch mainboard 2 is small, and the energy-saving adjustment module 202 is automatically adjusted to the energy-saving and low-power consumption mode, thereby reducing the power consumption of the switch mainboard 2.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
