Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of communication accessories, and particularly relates to a quick-disassembly and quick-assembly wiring rack connection panel assembly. Background Art

[0002] A wiring rack is the most important component in a management subsystem and is a hub for cross-connecting the vertical backbone and horizontal wiring subsystems. The wiring rack is usually installed in a cabinet or on a wall. Through installation accessories, the wiring rack can fully meet the needs of UTP, STP, coaxial cable, optical fiber, audio and video. The wiring rack needs to be used in cooperation with an optical fiber connection panel to fix the optical fiber connection panel.

[0003] The existing optical fiber connection panel and wiring rack adopt a screw fixation method, with low installation efficiency and difficult maintenance.

[0004] In addition, the fixing method of the optical fiber coupler on the optical fiber connection panel is flange + metal elastic sheet fixation. This fixing method has great limitations. It can not only not achieve quick disassembly, but also due to the insufficiently tight fixing method, the coupler has a large shaking amplitude.

[0005] The existing optical fiber connection panel cannot meet the high demands of customers for flexible configuration and maintenance during the cabling process in the computer room. There are certain limitations in the replacement of the coupler, and it is impossible to achieve the convenient disassembly and assembly of the coupler module, resulting in low system construction and maintenance efficiency.

[0009] A positioning frame is provided with a plurality of grid holes for assembling optical fiber couplers, and brackets are provided at both ends of the positioning frame. The positioning frame is detachably connected to the inner side of the fixed frame portion, and notches for matching the brackets are provided at both ends of the fixed frame portion. A step is provided on the outer side of the optical fiber coupler. The grid hole ends of the positioning frame cooperate with the grid hole ends on the fixed frame portion to clamp the steps and limit the position of the optical fiber coupler on the panel body.

[0010] The technical effect of the present invention is that the panel body and the distribution frame are quickly disassembled and assembled by utilizing the tenons on the panel body and the elastic card. During the specific implementation, the tenon on one side is first connected to the partition column at one end of the slot, and then pressed against the other end of the panel body so that the elastic card and the slot partition column at the other end are connected into place. The installation of the optical fiber coupler is fixed by clamping the grid hole end on the positioning frame and the grid hole end on the fixed frame. The assembly and disassembly is quick, which can improve the efficiency of subsequent construction and maintenance.

[0011] Preferably, the cover portion is provided with a avoidance opening at the end edge close to the elastic card, the elastic card extends out of the avoidance opening, a positioning block is provided on the outer side wall of the elastic card, and a gap is left between the positioning block and the cover portion for the spacer to be inserted.

[0012] The resulting technical effect is that the avoidance opening facilitates the operation of the elastic card. When the panel body needs to be disassembled, it is only necessary to move the elastic card so that the positioning block on the elastic card and the partition column on the corresponding side are released from the limit.

[0013] Preferably, a plurality of grid holes for assembling optical fiber couplers are provided on one side of the fixing frame portion close to the cover portion, and the positions of the plurality of grid holes on the fixing frame portion correspond one to one with the positions of the plurality of grid holes on the positioning frame.

[0014] The resulting technical effect is that the grid holes on the fixing frame and the positioning frame are all used for assembling the same optical fiber coupler, so that the optical fiber coupler is stably connected.

[0015] Preferably, a plurality of notches are provided at intervals at both ends of the fixed frame portion and on one side away from the cover portion, and a bendable portion is formed between adjacent notches, and the notch is located on the bendable portion.

[0016] The resulting technical effect is that due to the presence of the notch, the prying part can swing to a certain extent. When the positioning frame needs to be disassembled, the prying part is pushed outward to release the position restriction of the slot on the card tray.

[0017] Preferably, the grid holes of the positioning frame and the fixing frame are both provided with extrusion ridges, and the extrusion ridges press against the outer side wall of the optical fiber coupler and limit the shaking of the optical fiber coupler.

[0018] The resulting technical effect is: in order to improve the fixing stability of the optical fiber coupler, the extrusion convex strip is used to press the optical fiber coupler to achieve a stable connection effect. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
