Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of switching power supplies, and particularly relates to a packaging structure of a switching power supply. Background Technique
[0002] A switching mode power supply, also known as a switched-mode power supply or a switching converter, is a high-frequency power conversion device and a type of power supply. Its function is to convert a voltage level into the voltage or current required by the user through different forms of architectures. The input of a switching power supply is mostly an AC power supply or a DC power supply, and the output is mostly equipment that requires a DC power supply, such as a personal computer. The switching power supply then converts the voltage and current between the two.
[0003] For the existing packaging structure of a switching power supply, although it can achieve the sealing of the packaging structure, when installing, it is necessary to fix the four corners of the substrate with screws, which not only makes the installation time-consuming and laborious, but also the screws are prone to rust and cause damage to the threads of the threaded holes during long-term use, thereby destroying the firmness of the connection, bringing inconvenience to the staff, and having low practicability.
[0004] Therefore, it is particularly important to design a packaging structure of a switching power supply to change the above technical defects and improve the overall practicability. Content of the Utility Model

[0023] For the embodiments, please refer to Figures 1-3 , the present utility model provides a technical solution:
[0024] A packaging structure of a switching power supply, including a middle housing 1. Upper covers 2 and lower covers 3 are respectively arranged at the top and bottom of the middle housing 1. Limiting slots 101 are respectively opened at the four corners inside the middle housing 1. Limiting posts 4 that cooperate with the limiting slots 101 are respectively arranged at the four corners on the opposite sides of the upper covers 2 and the lower covers 3. Connecting ear plates 5 are symmetrically arranged left and right on the front and rear sides of the upper covers 2 and the lower covers 3.
[0025] Among them, the middle housing 1 and the upper covers 2 and the lower covers 3 are respectively designed with a separated structure. The connection mode between the limiting slots 101 and the limiting posts 4 is a plug-in connection. The internal structure size of the limiting slots 101 is adapted to the external structure size of the limiting posts 4.
[0026] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3, at the bottom of the connecting lug plate 5 located at the position of the upper cover 2, a fixed insertion rod 501 is connected. At the outer side of the fixed insertion rod 501 and at the bottom position, an elastic snap button 502 is arranged. At the top of the connecting lug plate 5 located at the position of the lower cover 3, a fixed insertion sleeve 503 which is used in cooperation with the fixed insertion rod 501 is connected. At the outer side of the fixed insertion sleeve 503 and near the middle position, a through hole groove 504 is inwardly opened. At the bottom inside the fixed insertion sleeve 503, an extrusion spring ring 505 is fixed. At the top of the extrusion spring ring 505, a top piece 506 is connected.
[0027] Among them, the connection method between the fixed insertion rod 501 and the fixed insertion sleeve 503 is plug-in connection. The internal structure size of the fixed insertion sleeve 503 is adapted to the external structure size of the fixed insertion rod 501. The connection method between the elastic snap button 502 and the through hole groove 504 is snap-fit connection. The connection method between the top piece 506 and the fixed insertion sleeve 503 is sliding connection.
[0028] The working process of the utility model: When in use, first, the upper cover 2 and the lower cover 3 are assembled at the correct positions on the top and bottom of the middle housing 1 by inserting the limit insertion post 4 into the corresponding limit insertion slot 101. At this time, the fixed insertion rod 501 is also smoothly inserted into the fixed insertion sleeve 503. Then, press down forcefully to make the fixed insertion rod 501 press the top piece 506 downward, and the extrusion spring ring 505 contracts and the elastic snap button 502 is stuck in the through hole groove 504 for fixation, so as to quickly complete the encapsulation of the switching power supply. And under the elastic force of the extrusion spring ring 505, the elastic snap button 502 is more stably snap-connected. At the same time, when disassembling and taking out, when pressing the elastic snap button 502, the force provided by the extrusion spring ring 505 will also facilitate the opening of the cover, which is more labor-saving.
[0029] Although the embodiments of the present utility model have been shown and described, for those of ordinary skill in the art, it can be understood that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present utility model. The scope of the present utility model is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
