Detailed implementation manners
[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-5As shown in the figure, a support structure for a network device includes a backplane 1. Screws are provided on the surface of the backplane 1, and through these screws, the staff can install this structure on the wall and inside the cabinet. A support plate 2 is fixedly connected to the surface of the backplane 1. Chutes are provided on both sides at the top of the support plate 2. A clamping mechanism 5 and a tension spring 4 are arranged inside the chutes. A hollow frame 6 is embedded at the top of the support plate 2. A cooling fan 7 is installed inside the hollow frame 6. The cooling fan 7 can drive the air flow at the bottom of the network device to dissipate heat from the bottom of the network device. Side plates 8 are fixedly connected to both sides at the bottom of the support plate 2. A T-shaped groove 9 is provided on the surface of one side of the side plate 8. A T-shaped plate 10 is slidably connected inside the T-shaped groove 9. A moving plate 11 is fixedly connected to the surface of the T-shaped plate 10. The surfaces on both sides of the moving plate 11 are respectively in contact with the surfaces of the two side plates 8. Ventilation grooves are provided on the top of the moving plate 11 and a column 12 is fixedly connected. A clamping plate 13 is fixedly connected to one side at the top of the moving plate 11. A card slot is provided on the surface of the clamping plate 13. A rubber pad 14 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the card slot. The rubber pad 14 can limit the network cable or data cable placed inside the clamping plate 13. An extension plate 15 is fixedly connected to the surface of the T-shaped plate 10. A slot 16 is provided on the surface of the other side of the side plate 8. The surface of the extension plate 15 is in contact with the inner wall of the slot 16. The length of the inner wall of the slot 16 is less than the length of the inner wall of the T-shaped groove 9, and the thickness of the extension plate 15 is equal to the thickness of the inner wall of the slot 16. Based on this, the movable range of the extension plate 15 can be restricted, thereby improving the practicability of the moving plate 11. A fixing plate 17 is fixedly connected to the surface of the side plate 8. A positioning mechanism 18 is installed on the top of the fixing plate 17. A U-shaped rod 19 is provided at the bottom of the positioning mechanism 18. A dust-proof net is embedded above the inner wall of the hollow frame 6. The dust-proof net can reduce the dust adhering to the bottom of the network device and affecting the heat dissipation situation.
[0024] The clamping mechanism 5 includes a sliding plate 51, a clamping plate 52 and a limiting plate 53. The surface of the sliding plate 51 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the chute. A guide rod 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the chute. The guide rod 3 slidably penetrates through the sliding plate 51. The tension spring 4 is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 3. The guide rod 3 can guide the movement of the sliding plate 51. The two ends of the tension spring 4 are respectively fixedly connected to the inner wall of the chute and the surface of the sliding plate 51. The clamping plate 52 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding plate 51. The limiting plate 53 is fixedly connected to the surface of the clamping plate 52. The network device is limited by the cooperation of the guide rod 3, the sliding plate 51, the clamping plate 52 and the limiting plate 53.
[0025] The top of the column 12 is designed to be arc-shaped, and grooves are provided on the surface of the column 12. Based on this, it is convenient for the staff to push and pull the moving plate 11, and it is also convenient to limit the network cable or data cable wound around the surface of the column 12 through the grooves.
[0026] The positioning mechanism 18 includes a positioning pin 181, a disc 182, a fixing ring 183 and a compression spring 184. The positioning pin 181 slidably penetrates through the fixing plate 17. The disc 182 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning pin 181. The fixing ring 183 is fixedly sleeved on the surface of the positioning pin 181. The compression spring 184 is sleeved on the surface of the positioning pin 181. The two ends of the compression spring 184 are respectively fixedly connected to the top of the fixing plate 17 and the bottom of the fixing ring 183. The number of the positioning mechanisms 18 is two groups, and the number of the discs 182 is two. The two ends of the U-shaped rod 19 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottoms of the two discs 182. The positioning pin 181 slidably penetrates through the extension plate 15. When the staff pulls the U-shaped rod 19, the positioning pin 181 can be driven by the disc 182 to descend, and accordingly, the limit fixing of the positioning pin 181 on the extension plate 15 can be released. On the contrary, under the action of the elastic force of the compression spring 184, the positioning pin 181 ascends and passes through the extension plate 15 to limit the position of the T-shaped plate 10.
[0027] Working principle: After the staff installs this structure on the wall through screws, the network device can be placed on the top of the support plate 2. At this time, with the cooperation of the tension spring 4 and the sliding plate 51, the clamping plate 52 and the limiting plate 53 can clamp and limit the network device. Then the staff pulls the U-shaped rod 19 downward. At this time, the limit of the positioning pin 181 on the extension plate 15 is released. After that, the staff pulls the moving plate 11 to move the moving plate 11 out from below the support plate 2. Then the staff can wind the redundant parts of the network cable and the power cable connected to the network device around the surface of the column 12, and accordingly, the redundant parts of the network cable and the power cable can be stored. Finally, the staff pushes the moving plate 11 back to the Figure 1 state shown. Then under the action of the elastic force of the compression spring 184, the positioning pin 181 passes through the extension plate 15 to fix the position of the T-shaped plate 10. Accordingly, the position of the moving plate 11 can be limited. After that, the staff can limit one end of the network cable and the data cable through the card slot. Finally, the staff connects the network cable or the data cable to the network device to complete the installation operation of the network device. When the network device is in use, the staff starts the cooling fan 7 to assist in cooling the network device, so as to improve the use effect of the network device.
