A network card installation device for the Internet of Things comprises a mounting seat, a network card installation slot is provided on one side of the mounting seat, a network card body is slidably provided in the network card installation slot, a through slot is provided on the top of one side of the mounting seat, the bottom end of the through slot is communicated with the internal space of the network card installation slot, an L-shaped baffle is provided on the top of one side of the mounting seat, the L-shaped baffle is located on a side of the mounting seat close to the through slot, a pressure plate matching the through slot is fixedly provided at the bottom end of the L-shaped baffle, locking screws are rotatably embedded at the four corners of the bottom end of the horizontal part of the L-shaped baffle, threaded grooves matching the locking screws are symmetrically provided on the top of the mounting seat, and contacts matching the network card body are fixedly provided on the inner wall of the bottom end of the network card installation slot.

[0004] In actual use, the existing network card installation device is prone to poor network card contact or network card disengagement, which in turn affects the use of the network card. In the above document, the L-shaped baffle blocks the network card installation slot to prevent the network card from disengaging, but the L-shaped baffle is fixed with a locking screw, and gear two is required to drive gear one to drive the locking screw to rotate. Gear one, gear two and locking screw are all precision parts with high processing difficulty and cost. At the same time, the method of fixing by rotating the locking screw is inefficient and more troublesome to use.

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

[0030] In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "top", "middle", "inside" and the like indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing the utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the utility model.

[0031] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the utility model is a self-locking wireless network card installation slot, including a mounting seat 1, a square groove 2 is opened inside the mounting seat 1, a first limiting component 3 is arranged on the outer surface of the mounting seat 1, the mounting seat 1 is fixedly connected to a network card body 4 through the first limiting component 3, a limiting groove 5 is opened on the side of the network card body 4, the network card body 4 is located inside the square groove 2, and a second limiting component 6 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the mounting seat 1.

[0032] Place the network card body 4 into the square groove 2. During the sliding process, the network card body 4 will push the first limiting component 3 to rotate. After the network card body 4 is fully installed, the first limiting component 3 is reset and plugged into the limiting groove 5 on the side of the network card body 4 to achieve self-locking of the network card body 4. At this time, the network card body 4 is fixed in the square groove 2 on the mounting seat 1, and then the mounting seat 1 and the network card body 4 are plugged into the notch on the computer motherboard. During the plugging process, the second limiting component 6 on the mounting seat 1 is squeezed, and the second limiting component 6 generates a reverse thrust to clamp the notch on the computer motherboard, so that the mounting seat 1 is fixed more firmly.

[0033] The utility model connects the first limiting component 3 and the limiting groove 5. When the network card body 4 is installed into the square groove 2, the first limiting component 3 will be pushed to rotate. When the limiting groove 5 on the network card body 4 is aligned with the first limiting component 3, the first limiting component 3 will automatically reset and plug into the limiting groove 5, so that the first limiting component 3 locks the network card body 4 to avoid unnecessary movement of the network card body 4. The structure is simple. When installing, you only need to push the network card body 4 to move it to self-lock, and the operation is relatively convenient.

[0034] In one embodiment, for the above-mentioned first limiting component 3, the first limiting component 3 includes a fixed plate 301, the fixed plate 301 is fixedly connected to the side of the mounting seat 1, the outer surface of the fixed plate 301 is fixedly connected to a round rod 302, the outer surface of the round rod 302 is rotatably connected to a rotating plate 303, the outer surface of the rotating plate 303 is fixedly connected to a pressing plate 304, the outer surface of the pressing plate 304 is fixedly connected to a limiting rod 305, the limiting rod 305 is used to be plugged into the limiting groove 5, and a torsion spring 305 is fixedly connected between the rotating plate 303 and the fixed plate 301.

[0035] During the process of installing the network card body 4 into the square slot 2, the side of the network card body 4 squeezes and pushes the limit rod 305, and the limit rod 305 drives the pressing plate 304 and the rotating plate 303 to rotate around the round rod 302.

[0037] When the mounting base 1 and the network card body 4 are plugged into the computer, the clamping block 604 on the mounting base 1 is squeezed by the slot of the computer motherboard, so that the clamping block 604 drives the sliding plate 603 to retract into the fixed base 601, and the sliding plate 603 compresses the first spring 602. The first spring 602 generates a reverse thrust to push the sliding plate 603 and the clamping block 604, so that the clamping block 604 clamps the slot of the computer motherboard to avoid looseness.

[0038] In one embodiment, for the above-mentioned mounting base 1, a protective component 7 is provided on the outer surface of the mounting base 1, and a third limiting component 8 is provided on the outer surface of the protective component 7.

[0042] In one embodiment, for the above-mentioned mounting seat 1 , the outer surface of the mounting seat 1 is provided with a notch that matches with the frame 701 , the L-shaped plate 801 and the sliding block 804 .

[0043] In the process of pushing the square plate 703 to move, the L-shaped plate 801 on the square plate 703 enters the slot on the mounting seat 1, and the slider 804 is squeezed by the mounting seat 1 and compresses the second spring 805 until the slider 804 is aligned with the other slot. The second spring 805 pushes the slider 804 to reset so that it is snap-fitted with the mounting seat 1. At this time, the square plate 703 is fixed to the mounting seat 1 to prevent unnecessary movement of the square plate 703.

[0044] Through the above technical scheme, 1. through the connection between the first limit component 3 and the limit slot 5, the network card body 4 will push the first limit component 3 to rotate during the process of being installed into the square slot 2. When the limit slot 5 on the network card body 4 is aligned with the first limit component 3, the first limit component 3 automatically resets and plugs into the limit slot 5, so that the first limit component 3 locks the network card body 4 to avoid unnecessary movement of the network card body 4. The structure is simple. During installation, you only need to push the network card body 4 to move it to self-lock, and the operation is relatively convenient. 2. Through the connection between the limit rod 305 and the limit slot 5, the network card body 4 squeezes the limit rod 305 during the installation process, and the limit rod 305 drives the pressing plate 304 and the rotating plate 303 to rotate, and the rotating plate 303 drives the torsion spring 306 to twist it.
