Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of Ethernet switches, in particular to an Ethernet switch with a fixed structure. Background Art

[0002] In today's network communications landscape, Ethernet switches are key devices for data transmission and exchange, and their performance and reliability directly impact the stability and efficiency of the entire network system. However, in existing Ethernet switch designs, the connection between the electrical plug and the switch body often becomes a bottleneck restricting performance improvements.

[0003] First, from the perspective of connection stability, traditional Ethernet switches typically use simple plug-in connections. While this connection method is convenient, the electrical plugs can easily loosen or even fall off when exposed to vibration, shock, or long-term wear and tear, resulting in communication interruptions or data loss. This connection method is particularly problematic in applications requiring high reliability and stability, such as industrial environments or data centers.

[0004] Secondly, from the perspective of ease of maintenance, existing Ethernet switches often introduce complexity and inconvenience in their assembly and disassembly designs. Some switches use screws or welding to tightly connect components. While this improves the stability of the connections, it requires specialized tools and technical support for cleaning, repair, or component replacement, increasing maintenance difficulty and cost. Furthermore, while some designs consider ease of assembly and disassembly, they often sacrifice connection stability, resulting in an inability to simultaneously meet both requirements in practice. To address this, we propose an Ethernet switch with a fixed structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the present utility model is to solve the problems raised in the above background technology and to propose an Ethernet switch with a fixed structure.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] An Ethernet switch with a fixed structure includes a switch body and a power plug for supplying power to the switch body. A plug hole is provided at one end of the switch body. An electrical plug is electrically plugged into the inner wall of the plug hole. The electrical plug is electrically connected to the power plug via a wire. A fixed structure is connected between the switch body and the electrical plug.

[0008] The fixing structure includes a fixing frame installed at the end of the switch body and a fixing sleeve fixedly connected to the periphery of the electrical plug.

A transverse fixing rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the strip groove. A lap plate is fixedly connected between the two transverse fixing rods. Arc-shaped limit blocks are fixedly installed on the opposite surfaces of the two lap plates. A reset component is connected between the strip groove and the movable sleeve.

[0009] Preferably, the reset assembly includes a transverse fixing rod fixedly connected between the two end walls of the strip groove, a spring is sleeved on the periphery of the transverse fixing rod, and the movable sleeve block is slidably sleeved on the periphery of the transverse fixing rod.

[0010] Preferably, a detachable component is connected between the switch body and the fixing frame;

The surface of the mounting block is provided with a placement groove, and the mounting block is installed with a fixing screw through the placement groove.

[0012] Preferably, the threaded section of the tightening screw passes through the seating groove and is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded hole, and the inner diameter of the threaded hole is adapted to the designed outer diameter of the threaded section of the seating groove.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0016] 1.

[0023] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Reference Figure 1-4, an Ethernet switch with a fixed structure, the switch mainly includes a switch body 1 and a power plug 4 for power supply. A plug hole 2 is designed at one end of the switch body 1, and the plug hole 2 is used to receive and electrically connect an electrical plug 3. The electrical plug 3 is connected to the power plug 4 through a wire, thereby realizing the power supply of the switch body 1; in order to enhance the connection stability between the electrical plug 3 and the switch body 1, the present invention introduces a fixed structure between the switch body 1 and the electrical plug 3. The fixed structure consists of two parts: a fixed frame 5 and a fixed sleeve 6. The fixed frame 5 is installed at the end of the switch body 1 and is arranged around the plug hole 2, while the fixed sleeve 6 is fixedly connected to the periphery of the electrical plug 3; on the surface of the fixed sleeve 6 facing away from the end face of the switch body 1, a limiting groove 7 is designed, which is used to cooperate with the mechanism inside the fixed frame 5 to achieve a fixing effect. The inner side wall of the fixed frame 5 is provided with a strip groove 8, and two transverse fixing rods 9 are slidably connected in the strip groove 8. The two cross-fixing rods 9 are fixedly connected by a lap plate 12 to ensure that they can move synchronously; an arc-shaped limit block 13 is fixedly installed on each opposite surface of the lap plate 12. When the electrical plug 3 is fully inserted into the socket 2, the arc-shaped limit block 13 can be precisely aligned and snapped into the limit groove 7, thereby fixing the electrical plug 3. In order to ensure that the arc-shaped limit block 13 can smoothly snap into and out of the limit groove 7, the present invention also designs a reset assembly between the strip groove 8 and the cross-fixing rod 9; the function of the reset assembly is to enable the cross-fixing rod 9 and the lap plate 12 to move along the strip groove 8 when the electrical plug 3 is pulled out under the action of an external force, thereby allowing the arc-shaped limit block 13 to snap out of the limit groove 7; and when the external force is removed, the reset assembly can reset the cross-fixing rod 9 and the lap plate 12, and the arc-shaped limit block 13 can snap back into the limit groove 7.

[0025] Furthermore, the reset assembly consists of a transverse rod 9 and a spring 10. The transverse rod 9 is fixedly connected between the two end walls of the strip groove 8, serving as a guide rod for sliding connection. A spring 10 is provided on the outer sleeve of the transverse rod 9, one end of the spring 10 is fixedly connected to the end wall of the strip groove 8, and the other end is fixedly connected to the surface of one end of the movable sleeve 11. Note: There may be a small error here, because the movable sleeve 11 is not directly mentioned in claim 1, but from the context, it can be inferred that the "movable sleeve 11" here may refer to a component that is slidably connected to the transverse rod 9 and drives the lap plate 12 to move, but in this embodiment we are more concerned with the structure of the reset assembly, so the specific identity of the movable sleeve 11 will not be discussed in depth. When the electrical plug 3 is inserted or unplugged, the transverse rod 9 and the structure thereon will move along the strip groove 8, compressing or releasing the spring 10, thereby realizing the automatic engagement and disengagement of the arc-shaped limit block 13 in the limit groove 7.

[0026] Furthermore, the switch body 1 and the fixed frame 5 are detachably connected via detachable components. The detachable components include a mounting block 14 fixedly mounted on the end of the fixed frame 5 and a threaded hole 15 formed on the surface of the end of the switch body 1. A mounting groove 16 is formed on the surface of the mounting block 14 for mounting a fixing screw 17. The threaded section of the fixing screw 17 passes through the mounting groove 16 and is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the threaded hole 15, thereby achieving a secure connection between the fixing frame 5 and the switch body 1. The inner diameter of the threaded hole 15 is adapted to the designed outer diameter of the threaded section of the mounting groove 16, ensuring that the fixing screw 17 can be smoothly screwed in and achieve the desired tightening effect.

[0027] Furthermore, the threaded section of the securing screw 17 precisely passes through the mounting slot 16 on the mounting block 14 and is tightly threaded into the threaded hole 15 on the switch body 1. This design ensures that the securing screw 17 firmly secures the mounting block 14 during tightening, thereby securely mounting the fixing frame 5 on the switch body 1. Furthermore, the inner diameter of the threaded hole 15 matches the designed outer diameter of the threaded section of the mounting slot 16, preventing loosening or installation problems caused by size mismatch.

[0028] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
