Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of interface converters, in particular to an Internet of Things interface converter. Background Art

[0002] An IoT interface converter is a device or software that can convert the interface of one system into the interface required by another system. It is usually used for data transmission and protocol conversion between different systems and is widely used in the field of IoT. When some IoT interface converters are used, an external plug is inserted into the receiving end connector inside the device. The receiving end connector transmits the received signal to the internal chip, which converts the signal into a corresponding signal and outputs it to the outside through the output end connector. However, the device's own connector is exposed to the external environment for a long time during use, resulting in a large amount of solid particles in the air adhering to itself, which can easily interfere with the signal contact transmission between the connector and the external plug. At the same time, the external plug is easily loosened and falls off due to interference from the external environment, which needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

The device can automatically protect the Internet of Things interface from dust and prevent the connection plug from falling off through an elastic element. It is easy to use and can effectively solve the problems in the background technology.

[0007] Furthermore, a heat dissipation net is installed in the middle of the left and right walls of the conversion shell to dissipate heat from the operation of electrical components in the Internet of Things interface converter.

[0008] Furthermore, a non-slip rubber pad is provided on the lower side of the conversion shell to prevent the Internet of Things interface converter from sliding horizontally relative to the placement location.

[0009] Furthermore, the dust and anti-falling mechanism includes a telescopic column, a spring and a vertical displacement seat. The telescopic columns are evenly arranged in the grooves. A vertical displacement seat is provided between the telescopic ends of laterally adjacent telescopic columns. Evenly distributed springs are provided between the vertical displacement seats and adjacent grooves. The springs are movably connected to the outer ends of adjacent telescopic columns. The left and right sides of the vertical displacement seat are slidably connected to the inner walls of adjacent connecting interfaces. The Internet of Things interface can be automatically protected from dust through elastic elements.

[0010] Furthermore, one end of the vertical shift seat away from the adjacent groove is an inclined surface, so that the inclined surface of the vertical shift seat can automatically slide into the adjacent groove after being pressed.

[0011] Furthermore, the dust-proof and anti-falling mechanism also includes a rubber sheet, which is arranged on one side of the vertical displacement seat close to the vertical center of the conversion shell, thereby preventing the external plug and the Internet of Things connector of the Internet of Things interface converter from falling off relative to each other by increasing the extrusion contact friction.

[0014] The outer opening of the connection interface is sealed by two vertically adjacent vertical shifting plates to prevent external dust from entering and interfering with the connection of the Internet of Things connector. When using the Internet of Things interface converter, the external connection plug is inserted into the connection interface on the front side, and the external connection plug contacts the vertical shift seat. The inclined surface on the vertical shift seat is compressed so that it slides toward the inside along the groove, and the telescopic end of the telescopic column and the spring contract, and the distance between the two adjacent vertical shifting plates is opened. The external connection plug is plugged and connected with the corresponding Internet of Things connector. At this time, the vertical shift seat squeezes the external connection plug through the compression elastic force of the spring, and the rubber sheet increases the contact friction to prevent relative sliding between the external connection plug and the vertical shift seat, thereby preventing the external connection plug from automatically falling off. The Internet of Things interface converter can automatically protect the Internet of Things interface from dust and the connection plug from falling off through elastic elements, and is easy to use.

[0020] See also Figure 1-3 , this embodiment provides a technical solution: an Internet of Things interface converter, including a conversion shell 1 and a dust and anti-falling mechanism 8;

[0021] Conversion shell 1: The bottom wall thereof is provided with a single-chip microcomputer 2 and a battery 3, respectively. The front and rear sides of the conversion shell 1 are provided with evenly distributed connection interfaces 6, and the interior of the connection interfaces 6 is provided with an Internet of Things connector. The output end of the Internet of Things connector on the front side and the output end of the battery 3 are both electrically connected to the input end of the single-chip microcomputer 2, and the input end of the Internet of Things connector on the rear side is both electrically connected to the output end of the single-chip microcomputer 2. The front and rear sides of the conversion shell 1 are provided with evenly distributed grooves 7, and the middle of the left and right walls of the conversion shell 1 are provided with a heat dissipation net 4. The lower side of the conversion shell 1 is provided with an anti-slip rubber pad 5, and the upper side of the conversion shell 1 is provided with an anti-slip rubber pad 5. A fault light 9 is provided on the side, and the input end of the fault light 9 is electrically connected to the input end of the single-chip computer 2. The anti-skid rubber pad 5 increases the contact friction to prevent the bottom of the device from sliding relative to the contact part. The single-chip computer 2 converts the signal received by the IoT connector on the front side and transmits it to the IoT connector on the rear side for corresponding signal output. The heat dissipation network 4 is used to dissipate the heat of the electrical components inside the device. The battery 3 provides power for the operation of the single-chip computer 2. When a signal conversion failure occurs inside the device, the single-chip computer 2 starts the fault light 9 to warn the surrounding staff of the device failure maintenance.

[0022] 8. The dustproof and anti-falling mechanism 8 is arranged inside the groove 7. The dustproof and anti-falling mechanism 8 is installed in cooperation with the connection interface 6. The dustproof and anti-falling mechanism 8 includes a telescopic column 81, a spring 82 and a vertical displacement seat 83. The telescopic column 81 is evenly arranged in the groove 7. A vertical displacement seat 83 is provided between the telescopic ends of the telescopic columns 81 adjacent to each other in the transverse direction. A uniformly distributed spring 82 is provided between the vertical displacement seat 83 and the adjacent groove 7. The spring 82 is movably sleeved with the outer end of the adjacent telescopic column 81. The left and right sides of the vertical displacement seat 83 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the adjacent connection interface 6. The end of the vertical displacement seat 83 away from the adjacent groove 7 is an inclined surface. The dustproof and anti-falling mechanism 8 also includes a rubber sheet 84. The rubber sheet 84 is arranged on one side of the vertical displacement seat 83 close to the vertical center of the conversion shell 1. The outer opening of the connection interface 6 is closed by two vertically adjacent vertical displacement plates 83 to prevent external dust. Dust entering will interfere with the connection of the Internet of Things connector. When using the Internet of Things interface converter, insert the external connection plug into the connection interface 6 on the front side. The external connection plug contacts the vertical displacement seat 83. The inclined surface on the vertical displacement seat 83 is compressed so that it slides toward the inside along the groove 7. The telescopic end of the telescopic column 81 and the spring 82 are contracted, and the distance between the two adjacent vertical displacement plates 83 is opened. The external connection plug is plugged into the corresponding Internet of Things connector. At this time, the compression elastic force of the spring 82 causes the vertical displacement seat 83 to squeeze the external connection plug. The rubber sheet 84 increases the contact friction to avoid relative sliding between the external connection plug and the vertical displacement seat 83, thereby preventing the external connection plug from automatically falling off. The Internet of Things interface converter can automatically protect the Internet of Things interface from dust and the connection plug from falling off through elastic elements, and is easy to use.

[0023] The working principle of an Internet of Things interface converter provided by the utility model is as follows: the anti-skid rubber pad 5 increases the contact friction to avoid relative sliding between the bottom of the device and the contact part, and the outer opening of the connection interface 6 is sealed by two vertically adjacent vertical shift plates 83 to prevent external dust from entering and interfering with the connection of the Internet of Things connector. When using the Internet of Things interface converter, the external connection plug is inserted into the connection interface 6 on the front side, and the external connection plug contacts the vertical shift seat 83. The inclined surface on the vertical shift seat 83 is pressed so that it slides toward the inside along the groove 7. The telescopic end of the telescopic column 81 and the spring 82 contract, and the distance between the two adjacent vertical shift plates 83 is opened. The head is plugged into the corresponding Internet of Things connector. At this time, the vertical displacement seat 83 squeezes the external connection plug through the compression force of the spring 82. The rubber sheet 84 increases the contact friction to avoid relative sliding between the external connection plug and the vertical displacement seat 83, thereby preventing the external connection plug from automatically falling off. The single-chip microcomputer 2 converts the signal received by the Internet of Things connector on the front side and transmits it to the Internet of Things connector on the rear side for corresponding signal output. The heat dissipation network 4 is used to dissipate the heat of the internal electrical components of the device. The battery 3 provides power for the operation of the single-chip microcomputer 2. When a signal conversion failure occurs inside the device, the single-chip microcomputer 2 starts the fault light 9 to warn the surrounding staff of the device failure maintenance.

[0024] It is worth noting that the single chip microcomputer 2 disclosed in the above embodiment can adopt TXS0102DCUR, the fault light 9 can adopt LTE-2071J strobe warning light, and the single chip microcomputer 2 controls the fault light 9 and the Internet of Things connector to work using methods commonly used in the prior art.
