Specific embodiments

[0020] To better understand the present utility model, the content of the present utility model will be further clearly described below in conjunction with embodiments. However, the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the following embodiments. In the following description, a large number of specific details are given to provide a more thorough understanding of the present utility model. However, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present utility model can be implemented without one or more of these details.

[0021] As Figure 1 、 2 、4 shows, it includes a gateway housing 101. An anti-collision housing 102 is fixedly connected to the outside of the gateway housing 101 by screws. Two mounting plates 103 symmetrically distributed left and right are arranged on the front side of the gateway housing 101. A plurality of uniformly distributed sockets 104 are opened on the front sides of the two mounting plates 103. Two antennas 106 symmetrically distributed front and back are rotatably arranged on the left and right sides of the gateway housing 101. A communication main board 108 is arranged at the bottom end inside the gateway housing 101. The sockets 104 and the antennas 106 are both electrically connected to the communication main board 108. A mounting base 110 is arranged on the lower surface of the gateway housing 101, and a fixing module for installation and fixation is also arranged on the mounting base 110.

[0022] As Figure 1 、 2As shown, filter nets 107 are provided at the ventilation openings on both the left and right sides of the gateway housing 101. On both the left and right sides inside the gateway housing 101, two heat dissipation fans 109 are symmetrically distributed in the front and back. All four heat dissipation fans 109 are electrically connected to the communication main board 108.

[0023] As Figure 2 , 3 , and as shown in FIG. 4, the fixing module includes four clamping rods 202 evenly and rotatably arranged inside the mounting seat 110 through a rotating shaft 201. Clamping blocks 203 are provided at one ends of the four clamping rods 202 far from the vertical center of the mounting seat 110. Avoidance grooves matching the clamping rods 202 are provided on both the front and back sides of the mounting seat 110. A driving unit for driving the clamping rods 202 to rotate is further provided on the mounting seat 110; the driving unit includes four supports 204 evenly arranged inside the mounting seat 110. Worms 205 are respectively rotatably arranged between two supports 204 on the same side. Middle parts of the outer arc surfaces of the rotating shafts 201 are fixedly sleeved with worm wheels 206. The worm wheels 206 are respectively meshed and connected with the adjacent worms 205. A linkage shaft is arranged between the two worms 205 through a coupling. A driving assembly for driving the worms 205 to rotate is further provided on the mounting seat 110; the driving assembly includes a rotating rod 207 rotatably arranged between the support 204 on the right side and the inner wall of the mounting seat 110. The rotating rod 207 is fixedly connected with the worm 205 on the right side through a coupling. A knob 208 is provided at the right end of the rotating rod 207.

[0024] As Figure 1 , 2 , 3, and 4 show that sponge sleeves are fixedly sleeved on the outer sides of the clamping blocks 203.

[0025] When an industrial Internet of Things communication gateway needs to be used, the user places the gateway housing 101 on the gateway mounting bracket where installation is required, and then rotates the knob 208. The knob 208 drives the rotating rod 207 connected to it to rotate, causing the rotating rod 207 to drive the worm 205 on the right side to rotate. Through the linkage shaft arranged between the two worms 205, the worms 205 on the left and right sides rotate synchronously. Then, due to the meshing relationship between the worm 205 and the worm gear 206, the worm gears 206 on the left and right sides are driven to rotate. The worm gear 206 drives the clamping rod 202 to rotate through the rotating shaft 201, and further drives the clamping rods 202 on the front and back sides to rotate towards each other, causing the clamping rod 202 to drive the clamping block 203 to approach the gateway mounting bracket and clamp the gateway mounting bracket, thereby enabling the rapid and firm installation of the industrial Internet of Things communication gateway. The external communication line is inserted into the socket 104 on the front side of the mounting plate 103 in sequence, so that the external communication line cylinder is connected to the communication main board 108 through the socket 104. The communication main board 108 realizes the communication of the industrial Internet of Things through the socket 104 and the antenna 106. During the operation of the communication main board 108, the communication main board 108 controls the synchronous operation of the four cooling fans 109 inside the gateway housing 101 to dissipate heat from the communication main board 108 and keep the communication main board 108 at an appropriate working temperature. During daily use, the impact from the outside is buffered by the anti-collision shell 102 arranged on the outer side of the gateway housing 101, which can effectively prevent the gateway housing 101 from being damaged due to external collisions and provide effective protection for the industrial Internet of Things communication gateway.

[0026] According to another embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 1 、 2 shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of uniformly distributed label plates 105 are provided at the upper end of the front side of the mounting plate 103, and the label plates 105 are respectively installed in cooperation with the vertically adjacent sockets 104. During use, the user pastes the label corresponding to the communication line with a label on the label plate 105, which is convenient for the user to quickly find the faulty communication line during subsequent maintenance.

[0027] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them. Any other modifications or equivalent replacements made by those of ordinary skill in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention should be covered within the scope of the claims of the present invention as long as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
