[0032] In order to facilitate the understanding of the above technical solutions of the present utility model, the working principle or operation method of the present utility model in the actual process will be described in detail below.
[0033] In the installation groove 102 of the network switch body 101, a ventilation groove 201 is installed. The first ventilation hole 103 is used to introduce the gas introduced by the driving structure 5 into the interior of the network switch body 101 through the air guide groove 206 and the ventilation groove 201. The three groups of installation grooves 102 provided in the present utility model can be installed according to actual needs during actual application, without strictly installing and using them in accordance with the three groups. One group of installation grooves 102 can be selected to allow the first ventilation holes 103 inside to conduct air, so that the network switch body 101 maintains a certain ventilation function, thereby improving the effect of air circulation. The peripheral slot holes of the ventilation groove 201 of the cooling structure 2 are matched and aligned with the first ventilation holes 103. The opening and closing plate 202 is facilitated to open through the hinge 203.

The transmission groove 302 of the locking cover 301 of the locking structure 3 is used for the buckling block to be inserted into the locking groove 303. Then, the locking cover 301 is rotated by rotating the handle 304, thereby completing the rotation and locking, so that the buckling block and the locking cover 301 are locked, and the opening and closing plate 202 is locked. The driving motor 501 and the electromagnet 403 are controlled to be energized through the pressing switch 405. After the pressing switch 405 is pressed and started, the electromagnet 403 is charged and attracted to the magnetic ring 207, so that the air inlet cover 401 is fixed in the air guide groove 206. At the same time, a positioning rotating shaft matching the positioning block 505 is provided inside the air inlet cover 401, which not only assists in positioning the air guide fan blade 504, but also improves the auxiliary fixing effect of the driving motor 501 to a certain extent. The driving motor 501 is limited and installed on the limiting rod 208 through the fixing cover 502 and the fixing ear 503. After driving the air guide fan blade 504, the gas is introduced through the second ventilation hole 402 of the air inlet cover 401, and then introduced into the air guide groove 206 through the air holes on the periphery of the air inlet cover 401. Subsequently, the gas enters the interior of the network switch body 101 through the ventilation groove 201 and the first ventilation hole 103, thereby dissipating heat from internal chips and other electronic components to ensure their appropriate working temperature. The driving structure 5 and the air inlet structure 4 of the present utility model have convenient installation and disassembly functions. The cooling structure 2 cooperates with the locking structure 3 to enable it to be conveniently installed in the installation groove 102, making the cooling unit modular, and improving the service life of the switch by optimizing the cooling effect.
