[0002] For existing industrial computers, they are often installed sideways or bottom-mounted to connect with external devices. The installation method is relatively fixed and cannot be adjusted according to the reservation of the external device. For this reason, it is easy to occupy the preset workstation space of the external device, resulting in the need to adjust the position of multiple components, affecting the layout and installation.

The overall heat dissipation efficiency is low. Moreover, even if the fin method is used for heat dissipation, the fins are mainly arranged at the CPU installation position, resulting in a smaller area actually involved in heat dissipation. In addition, the interface components used are all single USB interfaces. Once the external device is expanded for transmission and a new data interface appears, it cannot be connected.

[0047] The following will further describe in detail the specific implementation manners of the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present utility model, but not to limit the scope of the present utility model.

[0048] As Figures 1 to 8The adjustable and installable industrial control computer includes a housing assembly. An installation and positioning assembly is provided on the housing assembly, and an industrial control computer body is provided inside the housing assembly. What makes it different is that the housing assembly includes a lower end cover plate 1, and an outer housing cover plate 3 is installed on the lower end cover plate 1. Thus, through the mutual combination of the lower end cover plate 1 and the outer housing cover plate 3, the housing assembly is formed, and a receiving space is formed inside the housing assembly. During implementation, an MCU assembly is installed in the receiving space inside the lower end cover plate 1. In this way, a suitable model of MCU assembly can be selected according to the actual control function requirements. A main board device 2 is provided on the MCU assembly to meet the processing requirements of various actual working conditions. Considering the heat dissipation requirements during long-term operation, a cooling fan 4 is provided on the outer housing cover plate 3, and the cooling fan 4 is electrically connected to the main board device 2. In this way, the cooling fan 4 can be started according to the actual working conditions. During implementation, the main board device 2 adopted by the present utility model includes a main board body. A CPU 5 and a memory component 6 are provided on the main board body to meet the conventional data processing requirements. At the same time, a core board module is also provided on the main board body to share storage and additional function expansion. Thus, a suitable core board module can be selected according to the actual application requirements, with better scalability, without replacing the entire main board device 2, reducing the implementation cost. Furthermore, considering the docking with corresponding devices and power supply during operation, a number of communication interface components and a power interface 7 are provided on the main board body, and a number of reserved holes 8 are provided at corresponding positions on the outer housing cover plate 3. For the auxiliary communication requirements in some application environments, an extended communication module is also provided on the main board body. Thus, there are multiple communication methods, which can communicate with the background terminal in coordination to achieve background supervision and control, facilitating remote auxiliary control of the connected devices.

[0049] In combination with a preferred implementation mode of the present utility model, the adopted installation and positioning assembly is combined fins 9 distributed in a mirror image. A number of installation holes 10 are provided on the combined fins 9, and screws are provided inside the installation holes 10. The combined fins 9 are screwed to the outer housing cover plate 3, and an arc chamfer is provided at the edge of the combined fins 9. In this way, through the distribution gap of the combined fins 9, the actual combined area can be adjusted according to the size of the housing assembly to meet the switching requirements of different positioning forms such as side installation and bottom installation. At the same time, stable combination with the connected joint surface can be achieved without shaking. And, sharp end faces can be avoided, and workers will not be scratched.

[0050] Furthermore, in order to achieve stable loading, the lower end cover plate 1 adopted by the present utility model includes a bearing bottom plate 11. On both sides of the bearing bottom plate 11, side plates 12 extend vertically in a mirror image manner. A back plate 13 is arranged between the side plates 12, and the lower end cover plate 1 has a three-sided surrounding structure. In this way, a stable accommodation space can be formed to meet the storage and placement of each component. At the same time, heat dissipation mechanisms 14 are arranged on both the bearing bottom plate 11 and the side plates 12 for passive heat dissipation. And a number of positioning mechanisms 15 are arranged inside the bearing bottom plate 11. In this way, it can ensure that the main board body has better integrity after combination and will not cause improper detachment or displacement of the main board body due to the shaking caused by subsequent logistics transportation and installation. During implementation, the heat dissipation mechanism 14 is a honeycomb hole mesh plate. Of course, for some application environments with large heat dissipation requirements, an array of oblong holes can also be used to form the heat dissipation mechanism 14. Considering the stability of positioning, the positioning mechanism 15 is a washer, and positioning holes are arranged on the washer. A coupling member is arranged at the corresponding position of the main board body, and the coupling member is connected to the positioning hole. Screws or studs can be selected to form the coupling member according to the specifications of the main board body to better limit the main board body.

[0051] In combination with the actual implementation, the MCU component adopted by the present utility model includes a communication plug-in board 16, and the communication plug-in board 16 is connected to the main board body. At the same time, a number of expansion slots 17 are arranged on the communication plug-in board 16. In this way, according to subsequent usage requirements, a suitable MCU module can be selected and matched in the expansion slot 17. The replaceability of the MCU module is realized to meet the pre-entry switching of various control programs.

[0052] At the same time, the housing component includes a housing body. A baffle 18 is arranged on the front side of the housing body, and a number of reserved holes 8 are arranged on the baffle 18 to avoid blocking communication interface components, etc. The present utility model is provided with a bottom fin mechanism 19 on the inner side of the upper end of the housing body. And a top fin mechanism 20 is arranged on the outer side of the upper end of the housing body. In this way, better heat conduction and heat dissipation effects can be achieved. Using the housing body as a heat conduction medium and combining the top fin mechanism 20 and the bottom fin mechanism 19, a good heat exchange is carried out between the relatively hot internal environment and the external environment. Furthermore, in order to better improve the efficiency of heat exchange, a storage area 21 is opened on the top fin mechanism 20, and the heat dissipation fan 4 is arranged in the storage area 21. In this way, active heat dissipation of the top fin mechanism 20 can be realized. In order to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the main board body, it can also be connected to the top fin mechanism.

[0053] Looking further, considering the need to cooperate to achieve functions and realizing modular supporting, the core board module includes a core carrier board 22 connected to the main board body, and a storage device 23 is provided on the core carrier board 22. At the same time, in order to meet the data storage requirements under different working conditions, the storage device 23 used is a memory module. And several capacitor components can also be provided on the core carrier board 22. In this way, it can be ensured that the storage device 23 is always under appropriate working condition current and voltage, avoiding data loss caused by abnormal operation.

[0054] During implementation, the communication interface components include a COM interface, an HDMI interface 25, a LAN interface 24, a USB interface 26, a PCIE expansion interface, a serial port interface, and a daughter card component. In this way, it can be compatible with the conventional interface categories of external devices and achieve quick docking. At the same time, through the added daughter card component, according to the subsequent interface expansion needs, the functions of 4 COM ports of RS232, 4 COM ports of RS485, and 2 CANs can be realized.

[0055] Moreover, the power supply interface 7 adopted in the present utility model is a 24V input interface. Of course, for special usage needs, 5V and 12V output interfaces can be selected. In this way, it can be directly docked with the preset energy supply ports of external devices to meet unified power supply coordination. Of course, for some special external devices, customized wiring terminals can also be selected according to their power output terminals. Thus, there is no need to configure an additional independent power supply module, and the energy supply docking can be realized relying on the original power supply module of the external device.

[0056] Considering that convenient local data communication and expansion can be achieved during daily use, the expansion communication modules adopted are a SIM card slot 27 and a TIF card slot 28. At the same time, for the wireless network already deployed within the factory area where the external device is located, a WIFI module 29 can be provided on the main board body. In this way, there is no need to conduct complicated communication line wiring on-site, and convenient local wireless data transmission can be realized.

[0057] From the above textual description and in combination with the attached drawings, it can be seen that after adopting the present utility model, the following advantages are possessed:

[0058] 1. By adopting the combination of fins to form the installation and positioning components, the bottom installation method or the side installation method of this industrial control computer can be realized. According to the model of the external device, a suitable installation method can be selected to avoid occupying extra space and not squeezing the working position.

[0059] 2. By adopting an independent MCU component, a suitable MCU module can be selected according to application requirements, realizing different computing power supply schemes for the same main body, which is convenient for users to select a suitable configuration.

[0060] 3. The accommodation space is formed by the cooperation of the lower end cover plate and the outer shell cover plate. With fewer parts used, the production cost is reduced while better integration is achieved.

[0061] 4. A cooling fan can be added to enhance the active heat dissipation effect, enabling long-term stable operation.

[0062] 5. Through the configuration of the core board module, the corresponding hard disk model can be selected according to the actual data processing volume, achieving better customization.

[0063] 6. The communication interface components have multiple types, which can meet the docking needs of different external devices. There is no need to configure an independent interface converter, and data packet loss caused by the quality problem of the interface converter will not occur.

[0064] In addition, the orientation or position relationship described in the present utility model is based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings. It is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or structure referred to must have a specific orientation or be operated in a specific orientation structure. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0065] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art in this technical field, without departing from the technical principle of the present utility model, several improvements and modifications can be made, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
