Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of fiber optic network unit technology, and in particular to a base shell for a panel-type gateway and a panel-type gateway. Background Technology
[0002] The FTTR solution aims to create an all-optical Wi-Fi solution, extending fiber optic cables directly to each room to achieve gigabit-level Wi-Fi coverage throughout the house. With the development of FTTR technology, panel-mounted gateways compatible with junction box installations are becoming increasingly common.
[0003] In related technologies, the BOSA module of the panel-type gateway has a connector for plugging in a pigtail. The connector is installed on the side wall of the bottom shell of the panel-type gateway. A groove extending along the opening direction of the connector is reserved on the side wall of the bottom shell of the panel-type gateway. The groove is used to avoid and accommodate the pigtail plug so that the pigtail plug can be plugged into and unplugged from the connector.
[0004] However, the space of the groove on the side wall of the bottom shell of the panel gateway is only just enough to accommodate the fiber optic plug that is compatible with the interface. When the fiber optic plug is connected to the interface by hand or with a tool, the small space of the groove makes it inconvenient to insert fingers or tools into the groove to operate the fiber optic plug and interface. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The first aspect of this application provides a base shell for a panel-type gateway, comprising:
[0007] The bottom shell is a hollow shell structure with one end open, and the side wall of the bottom shell has a plug hole that connects the internal cavity of the bottom shell to the outside.
[0008] A groove is located on the side wall of the bottom shell, and the insertion hole is located in the groove. The opening of the groove gradually increases in the direction away from the insertion hole.

[0011] In some embodiments: the groove extends to two adjacent sidewalls on the bottom shell, and the angle between the axis of the insertion hole opening direction and either sidewall is an acute angle.
[0012] In some embodiments, the groove extends to two adjacent sidewalls on the bottom shell, and the axis of the insertion hole opening direction is perpendicular to one of the sidewalls and parallel to the other sidewall.
[0013] In some embodiments, the bottom shell includes a mounting plate located at the open end, and the side of the mounting plate opposite to the open end has a downwardly extending recessed shell.
[0014] In some embodiments, the bottom surface of the sunken housing is provided with a plurality of fiber optic cable clips for fixing optical cables.
[0015] In some embodiments, the insertion hole and the groove are both located on the side wall of the sunken housing.
[0016] In some embodiments: the mounting plate has mounting holes for fixing the circuit board at the corners, and the mounting plate also has fixing holes for connecting with the bottom box.
[0017] In some embodiments, the bottom shell is further provided with a power cord socket for connecting a power cord.
[0018] A second aspect of this application provides a panel-type gateway, including a bottom shell as described in any of the above embodiments, and an end cover, wherein the bottom shell and the end cover are fastened together to form a receiving space for accommodating a circuit board;
[0019] A circuit board located within the receiving space, wherein an optical fiber adapter for connecting an optical cable is connected to the circuit board, and the plug-in port of the optical fiber adapter is adapted to the plug hole.
[0020] In some embodiments, the angle between the projection of the axis of the plug-in port onto the circuit board and any side of the circuit board is an acute angle.
[0021] In some embodiments: the circuit board includes a chip circuit board and a photoelectric board stacked together, and the fiber optic adapter is located on the photoelectric board;
[0022] The chip circuit board and the optoelectronic board are provided with a connector for mutual electrical connection, and the chip circuit board and the optoelectronic board are fastened together by a fastening part.
[0023] In some embodiments: the end cover includes an upper cover and a panel. The upper cover has an open-end structure and a fixing hole for connecting to the bottom box is provided on the end face of the upper cover. The panel is detachably connected to the end face of the upper cover to hide the fixing hole.
[0024] In some embodiments: the chip circuit board is located on the side close to the end cover, the photoelectric board is located on the side close to the bottom shell, and the chip circuit board is connected to a communication network port, a first switch, and a second switch;
[0025] The end cap has an interface for connecting to a communication network port, a button for pressing the first switch, and a through hole for matching the second switch.
[0026] In some embodiments, the fiber optic adapter is an optical-electric composite cable adapter.
[0027] The beneficial effects of the technical solution provided in this application include:
[0028] This application provides a bottom shell for a panel-type gateway and a panel-type gateway. Since the bottom shell of this application for a panel-type gateway is a hollow shell structure with one end open, a plug-in hole is provided on the side wall of the bottom shell to communicate with the outside of the bottom shell; a groove is located on the side wall of the bottom shell, and the plug-in hole is located in the groove. The groove opening gradually increases in the direction away from the plug-in hole.
[0029] Therefore, the bottom shell of this application for a panel-type gateway not only has a plug-in hole on the side wall of the bottom shell that connects the internal cavity of the bottom shell to the outside, and this plug-in hole is used to adapt the fiber optic adapter, and the plug-in terminal of the optical cable is plugged and plugged into the plug interface of the fiber optic adapter through the plug-in hole, but also has a groove on the side wall of the bottom shell, with the plug-in hole located in the groove. The groove opening has a flared shape that gradually increases in size away from the plug-in hole.
[0030] The groove is used to increase the distance between the plug hole and the outer edge of the bottom shell, so that when the optical cable plug-in terminal is connected to the optical fiber adapter interface through the plug hole, the optical cable plug-in terminal has enough space in the bottom shell to accommodate it, making it easier to arrange the optical cable and plug-in terminal in the bottom box.
[0031] The groove has a flared shape that gradually increases in size away from the plug hole. When the optical cable plug-in terminal is connected to the fiber optic adapter interface through the plug hole, it provides a large enough operating space for fingers or tools to hold the plug-in terminal. This makes it easy to hold the plug-in terminal or use a tool to hold the plug-in terminal to the fiber optic adapter interface to perform plug-in and plug-out actions, thereby improving the plug-in and plug-out efficiency.

[0053] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0054] This application provides a bottom shell and a panel-type gateway for use in a panel-type gateway, which can solve the problem in the related art that the space of the clearance groove at the plug interface on the side wall of the bottom shell is too small, making it inconvenient for fingers or tools to be inserted into the clearance groove to operate the fiber optic plug and plug interface for plugging and unplugging.
[0055] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figures 5 to 7 and Figure 14 As shown, a first aspect of this application provides a base shell for a panel-type gateway, comprising:
[0056] The bottom shell 10 is a hollow shell structure with an open top. A plug-in hole 12 is provided on the side wall of the bottom shell 10 to connect the internal cavity 11 of the bottom shell 10 to the outside. The plug-in hole 12 is used to adapt the fiber optic adapter 42. The plug-in terminals of the optical cable are plugged and unplugged into the plug interface of the fiber optic adapter 42 through the plug-in hole 12.
[0057] A groove 13 is located on the side wall of the bottom shell 10, and a socket 12 is located within the groove 13. The opening of the groove 13 gradually increases in size away from the socket 12. The socket 12 is located on the side wall within the groove 13, and the opening of the groove 13 has a flared shape that gradually increases in size away from the socket 12.
[0058] The bottom shell 10 for a panel-type gateway in this embodiment not only has a plug hole 12 on its side wall that connects the internal cavity 11 of the bottom shell 10 to the outside, but also has a groove 13 on its side wall. The plug hole 12 is used to adapt to the fiber optic adapter 42. The plug-in terminal of the optical cable is plugged and plugged into the interface of the fiber optic adapter 42 through the plug hole 12. The plug hole 12 is located in the groove 13, and the opening of the groove 13 gradually increases in the direction away from the plug hole 12, forming a flared shape.
[0059] The groove 13 is used to increase the distance between the plug hole 12 and the outer edge of the bottom shell 10, so that when the optical cable plug-in terminal is connected to the interface of the optical fiber adapter 42 through the plug hole 12, the optical cable plug-in terminal has a sufficiently large accommodating space in the bottom shell 10, making it easier to arrange the optical cable and plug-in terminal in the bottom box.
[0060] The groove 13 gradually increases in size in the direction away from the plug hole 12, forming a flared shape. When the plug-in terminal of the optical cable is connected to the plug interface of the optical fiber adapter 42 through the plug hole 12, it provides a large enough operating space for fingers or tools to hold the plug-in terminal, making it easy to hold the plug-in terminal or use tools to hold the plug-in terminal to the plug interface of the optical fiber adapter 42 to perform plug-in and plug-out actions, thereby improving the plug-in and plug-out efficiency of the plug-in terminal.
[0061] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 7 As shown, this application embodiment provides a bottom shell for a panel-type gateway. The groove 13 of the bottom shell 10 extends to the bottom surface of the bottom shell 10 in a direction away from the open end. The outline of the groove 13 is... Figure 1 and Figure 5 The circular arc outline shown, or as... Figure 6 The polygonal outline shown is formed by connecting multiple lines, or as... Figure 7 The image shows a mixed contour line formed by a combination of arcs and line segments.
[0062] In this embodiment, the groove 13 of the bottom shell 10 extends to the bottom surface of the bottom shell 10 in a direction away from the open end, so as to maximize the opening of the groove 13, further facilitating the gripping of the plug-in terminals by fingers or tools and providing a sufficiently large operating space. The outline of the groove 13 is an arc-shaped outline, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 5 The circular arc outline shown, or the polygonal outline formed by connecting multiple line segments, as shown... Figure 6 The polygonal outline shown, or the mixed outline formed by a combination of arcs and line segments, as shown... Figure 7 The mixed contour lines shown.
[0063] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 7As shown, this application embodiment provides a base shell for a panel-type gateway. The cross-section of the base shell 10 is preferably, but not limited to, rectangular. The groove 13 is located on any side wall of the base shell 10, or the groove 13 extends to two adjacent side walls of the base shell 10, that is, the groove 13 is formed on two adjacent side walls of the base shell 10. The groove 13 formed on two adjacent side walls of the base shell 10 is larger than the groove 13 formed on a single side wall of the base shell 10.
[0064] In this embodiment, the groove 13 extends to two adjacent sidewalls on the bottom shell 10. Forming the groove 13 on two adjacent sidewalls maximizes the opening of the groove 13 compared to forming it on a single sidewall, further facilitating the gripping of the plug-in terminal by fingers or tools and providing sufficient operating space. Alternatively, those skilled in the art may choose to form a groove 13 on a single sidewall of the bottom shell 10, with the opening gradually increasing in size away from the plug-in hole 12.
[0065] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, this application embodiment provides a bottom shell for a panel-type gateway. The groove 13 of the bottom shell 10 extends to two adjacent side walls of the bottom shell 10, and the angle between the axis of the opening direction of the plug hole 12 and any side wall is an acute angle. Taking an 86-type bottom box as an example, the preferred angle is 40°-50°, and more preferably 45°, that is, the axis of the opening direction of the plug hole 12 of the bottom shell 10 coincides with the diagonal of the rectangle formed by the four side walls of the bottom shell 10; taking a 118-type bottom box or a 120-type bottom box as examples, the axis of the opening direction of the plug hole 12 of the bottom shell 10 coincides with or approximately matches the diagonal of the rectangle formed by the four side walls of the bottom shell 10.
[0066] In this embodiment, the angle between the axis of the insertion hole 12 of the bottom shell 10 and any side wall is an acute angle, so that the insertion hole 12 is oriented towards the connection of two adjacent side walls, thereby maximizing the distance between the insertion hole 12 and the connection of two adjacent side walls, and increasing the space available for the insertion and removal terminals of the optical cable on the bottom shell 10.
[0067] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 7 As shown, this application embodiment provides a bottom shell for a panel-type gateway. The groove 13 of the bottom shell 10 extends to two adjacent side walls on the bottom shell 10, and the axis of the opening direction of the plug hole 12 is perpendicular to one of the side walls and parallel to the other side wall.
[0068] The contour line of the groove 13 in this embodiment is a hybrid contour line formed by a combination of arcs and line segments, such as... Figure 7The mixed contour line shown is formed by connecting vertical contour lines, circular contour lines, and horizontal contour lines in sequence.
[0069] The insertion hole 12 is located on the vertical contour line of the groove 13 and is far away from the horizontal contour line of the groove 13. The vertical contour line and the horizontal contour line are connected by an arc contour line. The length direction of the vertical contour line is perpendicular to the axis of the opening direction of the insertion hole 12, and the length direction of the horizontal contour line is parallel to the axis of the opening direction of the insertion hole 12.
[0070] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 1 , Figures 5 to 7 and Figure 14 As shown, this application embodiment provides a base shell for a panel-type gateway. The base shell 10 includes a mounting plate 14 located at an open end, and a downwardly extending recessed housing 15 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 14 facing away from the open end. The cross-section of the recessed housing 15 gradually decreases in the direction away from the mounting plate 14.
[0071] Mounting plate 14 is used to mount optoelectronic board 41. The internal cavity 11 formed by the recessed housing 15 is used to accommodate fiber optic adapter 42. The fiber optic adapter 42 is preferably an optoelectronic composite cable adapter. The optical cable adapted to the optoelectronic composite cable adapter is preferably an optoelectronic composite cable, which can transmit optical signals and provide power. The bottom surface of the recessed housing 15 is provided with multiple fiber optic hooks 16 for fixing and coiling the optical cable. The insertion hole 12 and the groove 13 are located on the side wall of the recessed housing 15. The side wall and bottom surface of the recessed housing 15 are also provided with bottom shell heat dissipation holes 19.
[0072] The mounting plate 14 is preferably, but not limited to, a rectangular frame structure. Mounting holes 17 for fixing the photoelectric plate 41 are provided at the corners of the mounting plate 14. The mounting plate 14 also has fixing holes 18 for connecting to the base box. The photoelectric plate 41 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 14 after being screwed through the mounting holes 17. After the recessed housing 15 is installed into the base box, the mounting plate 14 is fixedly connected to the base box after being screwed through the fixing holes 18.
[0073] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 8 As shown, this application embodiment provides a bottom shell for a panel-type gateway. The bottom shell 10 also has a bottom opening structure and a bottom cover 50. The bottom cover 50 is detachably connected to the bottom of the bottom shell 10 and located on one side of the bottom opening. The bottom cover 50 and the bottom shell 10 together form a cavity.
[0074] A groove 13 is formed on the sidewalls of the bottom shell 10 and the bottom cover 50. The outline of the groove 13 is a mixed outline formed by a combination of arcs and line segments, such as... Figure 8 The mixed contour line shown is formed by connecting vertical contour lines, circular contour lines, and horizontal contour lines in sequence.
[0075] The insertion hole 12 is located on the vertical contour line of the groove 13 and is far away from the horizontal contour line of the groove 13. The vertical contour line and the horizontal contour line are connected by an arc contour line. The length direction of the vertical contour line is perpendicular to the axis of the opening direction of the insertion hole 12, and the length direction of the horizontal contour line is parallel to the axis of the opening direction of the insertion hole 12.
[0076] When the fiber optic adapter 42 cannot be used with the optical-electric composite cable, an external power source can be used, such as an AC plug, a DC plug, or USB power supply. Taking AC power supply with terminals as an example, the bottom cover 50 also has two power cord sockets 51 for connecting the power cord. One power cord socket 51 is used to connect the neutral wire of the power cord, and the other power cord socket 51 is used to connect the live wire of the power cord, as well as a fastening hole for fixing the power cord.
[0077] An adapter circuit board (not shown in the figure) is provided inside the cavity formed by the bottom cover 50 and the bottom shell 10. The adapter circuit board is provided with wiring terminals (not shown in the figure). The wiring terminals include wiring holes for connecting power cords and adjustment holes for fastening power cords. The power cord socket 51 on the bottom cover 50 is used to expose the wiring holes, and the fastening holes on the bottom cover 50 are used to expose the adjustment holes.
[0078] In some alternative embodiments: see Figure 9 As shown, this application embodiment provides a bottom shell for a panel-type gateway. The bottom shell 10 has a partition plate inside, which divides the bottom shell 10 into a first cavity with an open top and a second cavity with an open bottom. It also includes a bottom cover 50, which is fastened to the bottom of the bottom shell 10 and forms a cavity with the second cavity.
[0079] A groove 13 is formed on the sidewalls of the bottom shell 10 and the bottom cover 50. The outline of the groove 13 is a mixed outline formed by a combination of arcs and line segments, such as... Figure 9 The mixed contour line shown is formed by connecting vertical contour lines, circular contour lines, and horizontal contour lines in sequence.
[0080] The insertion hole 12 is located on the vertical contour line of the groove 13 and is far away from the horizontal contour line of the groove 13. The vertical contour line and the horizontal contour line are connected by an arc contour line. The length direction of the vertical contour line is perpendicular to the axis of the opening direction of the insertion hole 12, and the length direction of the horizontal contour line is parallel to the axis of the opening direction of the insertion hole 12.
[0081] When the fiber optic adapter 42 cannot be used with the optical-electric composite cable, an external power source can be used, such as an AC plug, a DC plug, or USB power supply. Taking AC power supply with terminals as an example, the bottom cover 50 also has two power cord sockets 51 for connecting the power cord. One power cord socket 51 is used to connect the neutral wire of the power cord, and the other power cord socket 51 is used to connect the live wire of the power cord, as well as a fastening hole for fixing the power cord.
[0082] The bottom cover 50 and the bottom of the bottom shell 10 are fastened together, and an adapter circuit board (not shown in the figure) is provided in the cavity formed with the second cavity. The adapter circuit board is provided with wiring terminals (not shown in the figure). The wiring terminals include wiring holes for connecting power cords and adjustment holes for fastening power cords. The power cord socket 51 on the bottom cover 50 is used to expose the wiring holes, and the fastening holes on the bottom cover 50 are used to expose the adjustment holes.
[0083] Combination Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown, those skilled in the art can also change the bottom cover 50 and bottom shell 10 from a separate design to an integrated design, with the bottom shell 10 and end cover 20 interlocking to form a space for accommodating a circuit board, the circuit board including the aforementioned adapter circuit board.
[0084] See Figures 3 to 6 , Figure 14 As shown, a second aspect of this application provides a panel-type gateway, which includes a bottom shell 10 as described in any of the above embodiments, and an end cover 20. The bottom shell 10 and the end cover 20 are interlocked to form a receiving space for accommodating a circuit board. The end cover 20 is used to close the open end of the bottom shell 10, and the circuit board is located within the receiving space formed by the bottom shell 10 and the end cover 20.
[0085] A circuit board is located within the receiving space formed by the bottom shell 10 and the end cover 20. A fiber optic adapter 42 for connecting an optical cable is connected to the circuit board, and the plug-in port of the fiber optic adapter 42 is adapted to the plug hole 12. The circuit board is preferably rectangular, and the angle between the projection of the axis of the plug-in port of the fiber optic adapter 42 onto the circuit board and any side of the circuit board is an acute angle.
[0086] In this embodiment, after the fiber optic adapter 42 is connected to the circuit board, the optical signal transmitted by the optical cable is received by the fiber optic adapter 42 and distributed to the circuit board. When the fiber optic adapter 42 is a fiber optic composite cable adapter and the optical cable is a fiber optic composite cable, after the fiber optic adapter 42 and the optical cable are plugged in and out, the power supply and optical signal are synchronously connected, which simplifies the construction difficulty, reduces tooling costs, and facilitates maintenance.
[0087] The angle between the projection of the axis of the fiber optic adapter 42's plug-in port onto the circuit board and any side of the circuit board is an acute angle. Taking an 86-type chassis as an example, the preferred angle is 40°-50°, and more preferably 45°, meaning the axis of the opening direction of the plug-in hole 12 of the chassis 10 coincides with the diagonal of the rectangle formed by the four side walls of the chassis 10. Taking a 118-type or 120-type chassis as an example, the axis of the opening direction of the plug-in hole 12 of the chassis 10 coincides with or approximately matches the diagonal of the rectangle formed by the four side walls of the chassis 10. This maximizes the distance between the plug-in port of the fiber optic adapter 42 and the connection points of two adjacent sides of the circuit board, increasing the plug-in travel and accommodating space of the optical cable's plug-in terminals on the chassis 10.
[0088] See Figures 3 to 6 , Figures 10 to 14 As shown, this application embodiment provides a panel-type gateway. The circuit board of the panel-type gateway includes a chip circuit board 31 and an optoelectronic board 41 that are stacked together. The fiber optic adapter 42 is located on the optoelectronic board 41, and the chip circuit board 31 is connected to a built-in antenna 33.
[0089] A connector is provided between the chip circuit board 31 and the optoelectronic board 41 for mutual electrical connection. The connector includes a connector socket 37 fixed on the chip circuit board 31 and a connector plug 43 fixed on the optoelectronic board 41. The chip circuit board 31 and the optoelectronic board 41 are electrically connected to each other through the connector socket 37 and the connector plug 43.
[0090] The chip circuit board 31 and the optoelectronic board 41 are fastened together by a fastening part, which includes multiple studs fixed to the back of the chip circuit board 31. The optoelectronic board 41 is threadedly connected to the studs by screws. A heat sink 36 is provided on the front of the chip circuit board 31 to cool it down.
[0091] The chip circuit board 31 is located on the side near the end cover 20, and the photoelectric board 41 is located on the side near the bottom shell 10. The chip circuit board 31 is connected to a communication network port 32, a first switch 34, and a second switch 35. The end cover 20 has an interface 23 for connecting to the communication network port 32, a button 24 for pressing the first switch 34, and a through hole for matching the second switch 35.
[0092] The end cover 20 includes an upper cover 21 and a panel 22. The upper cover 21 has an open end and is preferably, but not limited to, a rectangular structure. The end face of the upper cover 21 has a fixing hole for connection with the base box. The panel 22 is detachably connected to the end face of the upper cover 21 to conceal the fixing hole. The side wall of the upper cover 21 has heat dissipation holes 25.
[0093] Working principle
[0094] This application provides a bottom shell for a panel-type gateway and a panel-type gateway. Since the bottom shell 10 of this application is a hollow shell structure with one end open, a plug hole 12 is provided on the side wall of the bottom shell 10 to communicate with the internal cavity 11 of the bottom shell 10 and the outside; a groove 13 is provided. The groove 13 is located on the side wall of the bottom shell 10, and the plug hole 12 is located in the groove 13. The groove opening of the groove 13 gradually increases in the direction away from the plug hole 12.
[0095] Therefore, the bottom shell 10 of this application for a panel-type gateway not only has a plug hole 12 on its side wall that connects the internal cavity 11 of the bottom shell 10 to the outside, and this plug hole 12 is used to adapt the fiber optic adapter 42, and the plug-in terminal of the optical cable is plugged and unplugged into the plug interface of the fiber optic adapter 42 through the plug hole 12, but also has a groove 13 on its side wall, with the plug hole 12 located in the groove 13. The groove 13 has a flared shape that gradually increases in size away from the plug hole 12.
[0096] The groove 13 is used to increase the distance between the plug hole 12 and the outer edge of the bottom shell 10, so that when the optical cable plug-in terminal is connected to the interface of the optical fiber adapter 42 through the plug hole 12, the optical cable plug-in terminal has a sufficiently large accommodating space in the bottom shell 10, making it easier to arrange the optical cable and plug-in terminal in the bottom box.
[0097] The groove 13 has a flared shape that gradually increases in the direction away from the plug hole 12. When the optical cable plug-in terminal is connected to the interface of the optical fiber adapter 42 through the plug hole 12, it provides a large enough operating space for fingers or tools to hold the plug-in terminal, making it easy to hold the plug-in terminal or use tools to hold the plug-in terminal to the interface of the optical fiber adapter 42 to perform plug-in and plug-out actions, thereby improving the plug-in and plug-out efficiency of the plug-in terminal.
