[0023] In order to further understand the content, features and effects of the utility model, the following embodiments are given as examples and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] The structure of the utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a new type of network switch provided by an embodiment of the utility model includes a network switch body 1, a heat dissipation component 4 is embeddedly installed on one side of the network switch body 1, the heat dissipation component 4 includes a fin plate 402, a plurality of fin plates 402 are provided, and the plurality of fin plates 402 are adjustably rotatably installed on one side of the network switch body 1, an adjusting member 403 is also provided on one side of the fin plate 402, the plurality of fin plates 402 are controlled by the adjusting member 403 to perform synchronous rotation operation, air inlets are formed between the plurality of fin plates 402, and a fan 404 is fixedly installed on one side of the network switch body 1 close to the fin plate 402.

[0026] The above-mentioned novel network switch is mainly characterized by its unique heat dissipation component 4 design, which is composed of a plurality of adjustable and rotatable fins 402, which are installed on one side of the network switch body 1. The design of the fins 402 not only takes into account the heat dissipation performance, but also takes into account the need for dust prevention. When the device needs to dissipate heat, the user can operate the adjustment member 403 to make the plurality of fins 402 rotate synchronously to form an air inlet of suitable size, allowing the fan 404 to introduce cold air into the inside of the device to effectively take away the heat. More importantly, when the device does not need to dissipate heat or the power consumption is low, the user can rotate the fins 402 to a closed state through the adjustment member 403 to completely close the air inlet. This design cleverly solves the problem that traditional heat dissipation devices are prone to dust ingress when not in use, and effectively prevents the influence of dust accumulation on the heat dissipation performance of the device. The dual effects of heat dissipation and dust prevention are achieved. Whether in a high power consumption state or in a low power consumption or unused state, it can provide users with a stable and efficient operating environment.

[0027] In this embodiment, a support frame 401 is embedded on one side of the network switch body 1, and four fins 402 are rotatably installed inside the support frame 401. Two fans 404 are provided, and the two fans 404 are fixedly installed inside the support frame 401. The fans 404 and the adjustment member 403 are electrically connected to the network switch body 1 respectively.

[0028] A support frame 401 is cleverly embedded on one side of the network switch body 1. Four well-designed fins 402 are arranged inside the support frame 401. These fins 402 can be flexibly adjusted by rotation. At the same time, two high-efficiency fans 404 are fixedly installed inside the support frame 401, and a stable electrical connection is established between these fans 404 and the network switch body 1. By operating the adjustment member 403, the user can accurately control the rotation angle of the fins 402, and then adjust the size of the air inlet to achieve flexible operation of temperature control and adjustment. The entire heat dissipation system ensures both heat dissipation efficiency and stable operation of the equipment.

[0029] In this embodiment, the adjusting member 403 includes a rotating rod 4031, which is fixed to one side of the fin plate 402, and the rotating rod 4031 passes through the support frame 401 and is fixedly connected to a fixed plate 4032. A sliding rod 4033 is slidably installed inside the fixed plate 4032 away from the rotating rod 4031, and multiple sliding rods 4033 are rotatably connected to the same lifting rod 4034. An electric push rod 4035 is fixedly installed on one side of the support frame 401, and the output end of the electric push rod 4035 is fixedly connected to the lifting rod 4034, and the electric push rod 4035 is electrically connected to the network switch body 1.

[0030] The electric push rod 4035 is the core power source of the entire adjustment system, and its working principle is based on the principle of converting electrical energy into mechanical energy. When the electric push rod 4035 receives a control signal from the network switch body 1, it will start to work. The output end of the electric push rod 4035 is closely connected to the lifting rod 4034, so when the electric push rod 4035 performs a telescopic action, it will directly drive the lifting rod 4034 to perform a lifting movement.

[0031] The design of the lifting rod 4034 adopts a linkage mechanism, and is interconnected with multiple slide bars 4033 through sliding connections. When the lifting rod 4034 is lifted, these slide bars 4033 will slide synchronously according to the displacement of the lifting rod 4034. Therefore, the rotation angle of the fin plate 402 will change with the displacement of the slide bar 4033. As a key part of the heat dissipation component 4, the change of the rotation angle of the fin plate 402 directly affects the size of the air inlet. When the fin plate 402 rotates to a smaller angle, the air inlet will be reduced accordingly, thereby reducing the entry of external dust; and when the fin plate 402 rotates to a larger angle, the air inlet will be increased accordingly, thereby increasing the air intake of the cooling fan 404 and improving the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0032] During the entire working process, the network switch body 1 accurately controls the electric push rod 4035 through electrical connection. According to the real-time temperature or power consumption of the device, the network switch body 1 can send a corresponding control signal to the electric push rod 4035, thereby adjusting the rotation angle of the fin plate 402 to achieve a balance between heat dissipation and dust prevention. This intelligent adjustment method not only improves the heat dissipation performance of the device, but also effectively reduces the accumulation of dust and prolongs the service life of the device.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the four corners of the lower part of the network switch body 1 are screwed with support feet 2, the front part of the network switch body 1 is provided with a status indicator light 3, a terminal seat 7 for connecting and communicating with the outside world is plugged and installed on one side of the network switch body 1, a heat dissipation recessed plate 5 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the network switch body 1, and a heat dissipation mesh plate 6 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the network switch body 1, and the heat dissipation mesh plate 6 and the support frame 401 are respectively connected with the inner cavity of the network switch body 1.

[0034] The bottom corners of the network switch body 1 are provided with support feet 2 to provide stable support. A status indicator light 3 is provided at the front to display the current status of the device. A terminal seat 7 is provided on one side of the network switch body 1 for communication connection with external devices. A heat dissipation concave plate 5 is fixed on the top for heat dissipation. A heat dissipation mesh plate 6 is fixed on the bottom to promote heat dissipation. These heat dissipation mesh plates 6 and the support frame 401 are connected to the internal cavity of the network switch body 1 to ensure effective heat dissipation and structural support.

[0039] Heat dissipation concave plate 5: fixed on the top of the network switch, used for heat dissipation, effectively reducing the device temperature, and improving the device performance and stability.

[0040] Heat dissipation mesh plate 6: fixed at the bottom of the network switch, the design of the heat dissipation mesh plate 6 promotes air circulation, accelerates heat dissipation, and prevents the device from being damaged due to overheating.

[0041] Internal cavity connection: The heat dissipation mesh plate 6 and the support frame 401 are connected to the internal cavity of the network switch to ensure the effectiveness of heat dissipation and structural support, and improve the stability and reliability of the equipment.

[0042] The working principle of this utility model:

[0043] When the device needs to dissipate heat, the user can operate the adjustment member 403 to make the multiple fins 402 rotate synchronously to form an air inlet of appropriate size, allowing the fan 404 to introduce cold air into the device and effectively take away the heat. More importantly, when the device does not need to dissipate heat or the power consumption is low, the user can use the adjustment member 403 to rotate the fins 402 to the closed state and completely close the air inlet. This design cleverly solves the problem that traditional heat dissipation devices are prone to dust ingress when not in use, and effectively prevents dust accumulation from affecting the heat dissipation performance of the device. It achieves the dual effects of heat dissipation and dust prevention. Whether in a high power consumption state or a low power consumption or unused state, it can provide users with a stable and efficient operating environment.
