[0001] This utility model relates to the field of network switch technology, specifically a novel network switch interface structure. Background Technology
[0002] The network cable plug-in interface structure of a network switch disclosed in CN219760083U includes a switch body. A plug-in port is provided through the center of the front end of the plug-in interface body. A protective cover is provided through the outer diameter of the fixed shaft and rotatably connected. Limit pins are provided through and slidably connected to the center of the left and right sides of the protective cover. Reset members are provided through and at the middle of the left and right sides inside the protective cover.
[0003] It uses a dustproof strip to seal the joint between the protective cover and the main body of the plug, preventing dust and moisture from escaping from the outside air from entering the plug and causing poor contact.
[0004] However, when plugging and unplugging the switch interface, the lack of connecting fasteners between the connector and the interface results in an unstable connection. Furthermore, the excessive and cumbersome locking structure makes plugging and unplugging the interface too difficult. This solution is not very convenient for connecting switch interfaces. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a novel network switch interface structure, which solves the problems of loose interface connections due to the lack of connecting fasteners between the connector and the interface during plug-in / plug-out connections, and the excessive and cumbersome locking structures making plugging and unplugging at the interface too difficult.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a novel network switch interface structure, including a switch body, wherein the front of the switch body is provided with a plurality of interfaces for plugging in network cables, and a switch connector is plugged into the inside of the interface, and the two sides of the interface surface are provided with snap-fit components for quick plugging in.
[0007] In a specific embodiment, the snap-fit assembly includes a base plate symmetrically arranged on both sides of the interface. A square groove is formed on the surface of the base plate, and a fixing rod is inserted into the inside of the square groove. A first arc-shaped piece is rotatably connected to the surface of the fixing rod, and a groove is formed on the surface of the first arc-shaped piece. A second arc-shaped piece is movably connected to the inside of the groove. A spring is symmetrically arranged on the surface of the base plate and on one side of the square groove. One end of one spring is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the first arc-shaped piece, and one end of the other spring is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the second arc-shaped piece.
[0008] In one specific embodiment, a connecting plate is provided on both sides of the switch connector, and a connecting block adapted to the first arc-shaped piece and the second arc-shaped piece is provided on one side of the connecting plate.
[0009] In one specific embodiment, a heat dissipation slot is provided on the top of the switch body, and a top plate is provided on the surface of the heat dissipation slot, and a fan for heat dissipation is provided on the surface of the top plate.
[0010] In one specific embodiment, mounting plates are provided on both sides of the front of the switch body, and connection holes are provided on the surface of the mounting plates.
[0011] In one specific embodiment, a running switch is provided on one side of the front of the switch body, and several running information indicator lights are provided on one side of the running switch.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a novel network switch interface structure, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0013] In the technical solution disclosed in this utility model, by utilizing the snap-fit component, during the operation of the switch body, the switch connector needs to be inserted into the interface on the surface of the switch body to complete the connection. During insertion, as the switch connector enters the interface, the connecting block on one side of the connecting plates on both sides will squeeze into the interior of the first arc-shaped piece and the second arc-shaped piece. As the connecting block is squeezed in, the first arc-shaped piece and the second arc-shaped piece compress the spring. When the connecting block is completely inserted into the angle formed by the first arc-shaped piece and the second arc-shaped piece, it is affected by the spring force rebound, so that the first arc-shaped piece and the second arc-shaped piece completely wrap around the connecting block. This improves the firmness of the switch connector inserted into the interface, while facilitating the insertion and removal of the switch connector, thus improving convenience.

[0020] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.
[0021] Figures 1-4 As an embodiment of this utility model, a novel network switch interface structure includes a switch body 1. The front of the switch body 1 is provided with a plurality of interfaces 2 for plugging in network cables, and a switch connector 3 is plugged into the inside of the interface 2. The two sides of the surface of the interface 2 are symmetrically provided with snap-fit components 4 for quick plugging.
[0022] The specific problem addressed in this embodiment is the lack of a connecting fastener between the connector and the interface during plug-in / plug-out connections at the switch interface, resulting in an unstable connection and excessively complex locking structures that make plugging and unplugging difficult. This invention utilizes a snap-fit component 4. During operation of the switch body 1, the switch connector 3 needs to be plugged into the interface 2 on the surface of the switch body 1 to complete the connection. During plugging, as the switch connector 3 enters the interface 2, the connecting block 6 on one side of the connecting plates 5 on both sides is squeezed into the interior of the first arc-shaped piece 44 and the second arc-shaped piece 45. As the connecting block 6 is squeezed in, the first arc-shaped piece 44 and the second arc-shaped piece 45 compress the spring 411. When the connecting block 6 is fully inside the angle formed by the first arc-shaped piece 44 and the second arc-shaped piece 45, it is rebounded by the spring force of the spring 411, causing the first arc-shaped piece 44 and the second arc-shaped piece 45 to completely enclose the connecting block 6. This improves the firmness of the switch connector 3 inserted into the interface 2 while facilitating plugging and unplugging, thus enhancing convenience.
[0023] Both sides of the switch connector 3 are provided with connecting plates 5, and one side of the connecting plate 5 is provided with a connecting block 6 that is compatible with the first arc-shaped piece 44 and the second arc-shaped piece 45.
[0024] The snap-fit assembly 4 includes a base plate 41 arranged symmetrically on both sides of the interface 2. A square groove 42 is formed on the surface of the base plate 41, and a fixing rod 43 is inserted into the inside of the square groove 42. A first arc-shaped piece 44 is rotatably connected to the surface of the fixing rod 43. A groove is formed on the surface of the first arc-shaped piece 44, and a second arc-shaped piece 45 is movably connected to the inside of the groove. In this specific embodiment, a spring 411 is arranged symmetrically on the surface of the base plate 41 and on one side of the square groove 42. One end of one spring 411 is fixedly connected to one side of the top of the first arc-shaped piece 44, and one end of the other spring 411 is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the second arc-shaped piece 45. During operation of the switch body 1, the switch connector 3 needs to be inserted into the interface 2 on the surface of the switch body 1 to complete the connection. During insertion, as the switch connector 3 enters the interface 2, the connecting block 6 on one side of the connecting plate 5 on both sides will squeeze into the interior of the first arc-shaped piece 44 and the second arc-shaped piece 45. As the connecting block 6 is squeezed in, the first arc-shaped piece 44 and the second arc-shaped piece 45 compress the spring 411. When the connecting block 6 is completely inserted into the angle formed by the first arc-shaped piece 44 and the second arc-shaped piece 45, it is affected by the elastic force of the spring 411, so that the first arc-shaped piece 44 and the second arc-shaped piece 45 completely wrap around the connecting block 6. This improves the firmness of the switch connector 3 inserted into the interface 2, and facilitates the insertion and removal of the switch connector 3, thus improving convenience.
[0025] In this specific embodiment, a heat dissipation slot is provided on the top of the switch body 1, and a top plate 7 is provided on the surface of the heat dissipation slot. A fan 8 for heat dissipation is provided on the surface of the top plate 7. Mounting plates 9 are provided on both sides of the front of the switch body 1, and connection holes are provided on the surface of the mounting plates 9. A running switch is provided on one side of the front of the switch body 1, and several running information indicator lights are provided on the side of the running switch.
