Detailed Implementation

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the modular expansion device for the multifunctional industrial instrument system provided by this utility model; Figure 2 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a side view of the female connector assembly. Figure 3 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a side view of the protective component. Figure 4 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a side sectional view of the protective frame. A modular expansion device for a multifunctional industrial instrument system includes: a common connection component 10, a female connection assembly 20 disposed on the front side of the common connection component 10, a protective assembly 30 disposed on the inner side of the female connection assembly 20 near the front side, and an operating assembly 40 disposed inside the protective assembly 30.

[0025] The female connector assembly 20 includes a housing 21 disposed on the front side of the common connector 10, and an external interface 22 is provided on the front side of the housing 21;

[0026] The protective component 30 includes a protective frame 31 located inside the outer interface 22 near the front. The protective frame 31 has a locking block 32 fixedly installed on both sides near the front. The protective frame 31 has a connecting block 33 fixedly installed on both sides near the rear. The bottom of the connecting block 33 has a sliding rod 34 fixedly installed. The connecting component 10 has a fixing bolt 35 through it on both sides and is threadedly connected to it. The protective frame 31 has threaded holes 36 on both sides that are compatible with the fixing bolts 35.

[0027] When it is necessary to disassemble or assemble the protective component 30, the fixing bolt 35 is rotated with a tool to disengage it from the inside of the threaded hole 36, and the protective frame 31 is pulled upward. The protective frame 31 causes the locking block 32 to slide upward inside the locking groove 23, while the sliding rod 34 slides upward inside the sliding hole 24 and disengages from the inside of the sliding hole 24, thus making it easy to disassemble the protective frame 31. The operation is simple and convenient, which facilitates the maintenance and replacement of parts of the protective component 30 and the operating component 40.

[0028] The operating component 40 includes five rotating cover plates 41 rotatably disposed inside the protective frame 31. The front side of the protective frame 31 is provided with a first rotating groove 42 adapted to the rotating cover plate 41. Movable blocks 43 are slidably disposed inside the rotating cover plates 41. Movable grooves 44 are provided inside the rotating cover plates 41 for the movable blocks 43 to slide up and down. Pull rods 45 are fixedly installed on the top of each movable block 43. Pull blocks are fixedly installed on the top of the pull rods 45. Springs 46 for driving the movable grooves 44 to descend are provided on the inner wall of the movable grooves 44 and on the outer edge of the pull rods 45. Positioning blocks 47 are fixedly installed at the bottom of the movable blocks 43. The bottom end of the positioning blocks 47 penetrates the inner side of the rotating cover plates 41 and extends to the outer side.

[0029] During the use of the device, the operator pulls the pull block inside the operating port 48. The pull block drives the pull rod 45 to slide upward. The pull rod 45 drives the movable block 43 to slide upward inside the movable groove 44, and compresses the spring 46 to retract it. The movable block 43 drives the positioning block 47 to disengage from the inside of the positioning groove 49, and rotates the rotating cover plate 41 to place it inside the second rotating groove 410. This makes it convenient for the operator to connect various devices with different interfaces through the female connector assembly 20. With the protective effect of the protective frame 31, dust can be prevented from entering the inside of the device through the interface during placement, thereby improving the practicality and service life of the device.

[0030] The inner side of the common connection component 10, from right to left, is provided with a USB interface, an SD card interface, two MicroSD card interfaces, and an HDMI interface for connecting to a display device.

[0031] The common connecting component 10 has a slot 23 that matches the locking block 32 on the inner side and on both sides of the protective frame 31. The common connecting component 10 has a sliding hole 24 that matches the sliding rod 34 on the inner side.

[0032] The protective frame 31 and the two locking blocks 32 are integrated into one piece, and the thickness of the front side of the protective frame 31 is lower than the thickness of the top.

[0033] The front side of the rotating cover plate 41 is provided with an operating port 48 for the pull block to move up and down, and the inner side of the protective frame 31 and the bottom of the rotating cover plate 41 are provided with a positioning groove 49 that matches the positioning block 47.

[0034] The top of the protective frame 31 is provided with a second rotating groove 410 that is adapted to the rotating cover plate 41, and a notch is provided on the top of the protective frame 31 and on the rear side of the second rotating groove 410.

[0035] The working principle of the modular expansion device for the multifunctional industrial instrument system provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0036] Step 1: During use, the operator pulls the pull block inside the operating port 48. The pull block causes the pull rod 45 to slide upward. The pull rod 45 causes the movable block 43 to slide upward inside the movable groove 44, and compresses the spring 46 to retract it. The movable block 43 causes the positioning block 47 to disengage from the inside of the positioning groove 49, and rotates the rotating cover plate 41 to place it inside the second rotating groove 410. This makes it convenient for the operator to connect various devices with different interfaces through the female connector assembly 20. With the protective effect of the protective frame 31, dust can be prevented from entering the inside of the device through the interface during placement, thereby improving the practicality and service life of the device.

[0037] Step 2: When it is necessary to disassemble or assemble the protective component 30, use a tool to rotate the fixing bolt 35 to disengage it from the inside of the threaded hole 36, and pull the protective frame 31 upward. The protective frame 31 drives the locking block 32 to slide upward inside the locking groove 23, while the sliding rod 34 slides upward inside the sliding hole 24 and disengages from the inside of the sliding hole 24, thus making it easy to disassemble the protective frame 31. The operation is simple and convenient, which facilitates the maintenance and replacement of parts of the protective component 30 and the operating component 40.

[0038] Compared with related technologies, the modular expansion device for the multifunctional industrial instrument system provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0039] By coordinating the various components of the device, pulling the pull block inside the operating port 48 causes the pull rod 45 to slide upwards. The pull rod 45 then causes the movable block 43 to slide upwards inside the movable groove 44, compressing the spring 46 to retract. The movable block 43 causes the positioning block 47 to disengage from the positioning groove 49, and the rotating cover plate 41 is rotated to place it inside the second rotating groove 410. This allows workers to easily connect various devices with different interfaces through the female connector assembly 20. Combined with the protective effect of the protective frame 31, dust can be prevented from entering the device through the interface during placement, thereby improving the device's practicality and service life.
