[0028] As Figures 1-3 shown, an embodiment of the present application is a protection mechanism for a COMe module, which comprises a body assembly 1 and a protection mechanism 2.

[0029] As Figures 1-3 shown, the body assembly 1 comprises a mainboard 11, and the COMe module 12 is installed on the mainboard 11.

[0030] As Figures 1-3As shown, the protection mechanism 2 comprises a frame body which is mounted on the COMe module 12 in a frame manner, and the frame body is used to form a closed space outside the COMe module 12, so that the COMe module 12 and the outside can be isolated by the frame body, avoiding the contact between the outside air and the COMe module 12, thereby avoiding the contact between the metal connector and the air, so that the metal connector will not be oxidized in a high temperature environment. The frame body comprises a side frame 21 and a mounting plate 22, the side frame 21 is framed on the outside of the COMe module 12, and the bottom of the side frame 21 is mounted on the mainboard 11, so that the periphery of the COMe module 12 can be shielded by the cooperation of the side frame 21 and the mainboard 11, and the COMe module 12 is framed inside. The mounting plate 22 is detachably mounted on the top of the side frame 21, and the top of the COMe module 12 can be closed by the mounting plate 22, so that the COMe module 12 is framed in the closed space formed by the combination of the side frame 21 and the mounting plate 22. The mounting plate 22 is provided with a cooling fan 210, since the COMe module 12 is in the closed space formed by the frame body, the COMe module 12 will generate heat during use, therefore, in order to make the heat of the COMe module 12 in the closed space be dissipated, the cooling fan 210 is arranged on the mounting plate 22, and the heat generated by the COMe module 12 is transferred by the cooling fan 210.

[0031] Preferably, the frame body is made of aluminum alloy material, so that the frame body has good moisture resistance and corrosion resistance during use.

[0032] Specifically, the outer side wall of the frame body is provided with a coating, and the coating is a coating with corrosion and moisture resistance, thereby improving the moisture resistance of the frame body.

[0033] Further, the connecting parts of the frame body are all sealed, so that the frame body has good sealing performance after installation, and the outside air cannot contact the COMe module 12.

[0034] Specifically, the mounting plate 22 is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation holes, the heat dissipation holes are designed according to the moisture-proof standard, and the heat dissipation holes are designed as micropores, so that the heat generated by the COMe module 12 can be dissipated through the heat dissipation holes, and the heat dissipation holes are designed according to the moisture-proof standard, which ensures that the heat dissipation does not affect the moisture-proof function in a high humidity environment, avoiding the entry of outside air and moisture into the frame body through the heat dissipation holes.

[0035] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3 Combined with Figure 4As shown, the bottom of the side frame 21 is provided with a first clamping groove 23, and the main plate 11 is provided with a first clamping protrusion 24 clamped in the first clamping groove 23.

[0036] As shown, Figure 3 In combination, Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the side wall of the side frame 21 is provided with a plurality of limiting grooves 25, and a plurality of limiting blocks 26 are inserted into the limiting grooves 25. The cooperation of the limiting grooves 25 and the limiting blocks 26 can make the side frame 21 stably installed on the main plate 11.

[0037] As shown, Figure 3 In combination, Figure 4 As shown, the top of the side frame 21 is provided with a second clamping groove 27, and the bottom of the mounting plate 22 is fixedly connected with a second clamping protrusion 28 clamped in the second clamping groove 27. The cooperation of the second clamping groove 27 and the second clamping protrusion 28 can clamp the mounting plate 22 on the side frame 21, and the cooperation of the second clamping groove 27 and the second clamping protrusion 28 can seal the connection between the side frame 21 and the mounting plate 22.

[0039] As shown, Figure 1 And Figure 2 As shown, the heat dissipation fan 210 is arranged at the center of the mounting plate 22, and a plurality of heat dissipation fins 29 are arranged around the heat dissipation fan 210. When the heat dissipation fan 210 rotates, the heat generated by the COMe module 12 can be extracted through the heat dissipation holes on the mounting plate 22, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat dissipation holes. At the same time, the heat dissipation fan 210 can blow the heat dissipation fins 29 around, improving the heat dissipation of the heat dissipation fins 29, so that the COMe module 12 in the frame body can be used stably and normally.

[0040] Optionally, the heat dissipation fan 210 can be powered by an external power supply, or can be connected with the power supply of the mainboard 11, so that the heat dissipation fan 210 runs when the COMe module runs. In order to improve the heat dissipation effect of the COMe module 12, a heat conduction rod can be arranged between the frame body and the COMe module 12, so as to quickly transfer the heat of the COMe module 12 to the frame body through the heat conduction rod.

[0041] In use, the frame body is made of aluminum alloy material, and the outer surface is coated with corrosion and moisture-proof layer, and is provided with heat dissipation fins 29 for heat dissipation.
