[0025] The principles and features of the present invention are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0026] This embodiment discloses a mounting bracket suitable for a functional module, including a functional module and a mounting bracket.

[0027] Reference Figure 2 The mounting bracket includes a bracket back plate, and the bracket back plate includes a first bracket back plate 210 and a second bracket back plate 220. A concave notch 211 is provided at the top of the first bracket back plate 210, and the concave notch 211 is used for the subsequent installation and positioning of the first shell part 101; the concave notch 211 is at a first distance from the bottom of the first bracket back plate 210, and the second bracket back plate 220 is provided with a functional module installation position 221. The first bracket back plate 210 and the second bracket back plate 220 are integrally formed.

[0028] Reference Figure 3 The functional module includes a housing and at least one clip 110, the housing is divided into a first housing portion 101 and a second housing portion 102, a track groove 120 is provided between the first housing portion 101 and the second housing portion 102, and the track groove 120 extends from one end of the housing to the other end; the distance between the first housing portion 101 and the second housing portion 102 is the second distance, that is, the width of the track groove 120; the first housing portion 101, the second housing portion 102 and the track groove 120 are integrally formed. It is worth noting that the functional module can be a line loss module and / or a power module in a cover-type FTU power distribution terminal.

[0029] Reference Figure 1-Figure 3 The first shell part 101 or the second shell part 102 is provided with mounting grooves having the same number as the clips 110, and the mounting grooves are connected to the track grooves 120. The clips 110 are arranged in the mounting grooves and partially located in the track grooves 120. The clips 110 can slide along the mounting grooves in a direction away from the track grooves 120 under the action of external force, and a card block 130 is arranged on the second shell part 102 or the first shell part 101 on the side opposite to the mounting grooves.

[0030] The first bracket back plate 210 and the track groove 120 between the functional module installation position 221 and the notch are adapted, and the first distance is slightly less than or equal to the second distance, ensuring that the functional module and the bracket back plate are clamped when the clamping block 130 cooperates with the clamping clip 110. Specifically, the shape of the functional module installation position 221 is adapted to the shape of the second housing portion 102, and the width of the functional module installation position 221 is slightly greater than the width of the second housing portion 102, ensuring better clamping of the functional module and the bracket back plate during clamping.

[0031] The first shell portion 101 is inserted into the concave notch 211, and an external force is applied to the clip 110 so that the clip 110 moves away from the track groove 120. When the clip 110 moves away from the track groove 120, the actual width of the track groove 120 increases due to the removal of the clip 110 located in the track groove 120. When the clip 110 moves a certain distance under the action of the external force, the actual width of the track groove 120 matches the width of the first bracket back plate 210 between the functional module installation position 221 and the notch, and the first bracket back plate 210 can be inserted into the track groove 120. When the external force is cancelled, the clip 110 is reset to achieve the cooperation of the clip 110, the block 130 and the track groove 120 to clamp the first bracket back plate 210 between the functional module installation position 221 and the notch.

[0032] It can be understood that a spring (not shown) connected to the track groove 120 is provided in the clip 110, and the clip 110 can be reset after the external force is removed by the ability of the spring to return to its original state. Specifically, the clip 110 is located in the track groove 120 and a spring is fixed therein, and the spring keeps the clip 110 in the working position. The clip 110 is pulled out of the working position, and after the module is put in, the clip 110 is released to return to the working position to clamp the bracket.

[0033] In this embodiment, the material of the bracket back plate is a cold-rolled galvanized steel plate or a 304 stainless steel plate with a thickness of 1 mm to 1.2 mm, so that the clamp 110 of the functional module can reliably fix the functional module.

[0034] In this embodiment, the mounting bracket further includes a bracket, and the bracket back plate is fixed by the bracket.

[0035] In this embodiment, there is a bending portion on the other side of the bracket backplate relative to the functional module. The bending length of the bending portion is greater than the depth of the functional module embedded in the bracket backplate. The length direction of the bending portion is the direction in which the module is embedded in the bracket backplate. The bending length of the bending portion is greater than the depth of the functional module embedded in the bracket backplate to avoid affecting the installation space of other modules.

[0036] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the above embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents.
