[0034] The preferred embodiments of the utility model are described in detail below in combination with the drawings, so that the advantages and characteristics of the utility model can be more easily understood by the person skilled in the art, and the protection scope of the utility model can be more clearly and explicitly defined.
[0035] In each drawing, X direction, Y direction and Z direction are three directions perpendicular to each other, wherein X direction is the length direction of the panel body 100, Y direction is the width direction of the panel body 100, and Z direction is the thickness direction of the panel body 100.
[0036] A kind of panel of the utility model, referring to Figure 2 and attached Figure 4As shown, the panel body 100 includes a first face 1a and a second face 1b, which are two faces in the thickness direction of the panel body 100, and the first face 1a is the face facing the outside of the distribution frame when the panel body 100 and other components are assembled to form the distribution frame. The panel body 100 is provided with a first slot 11 in the thickness direction of the panel body 100 from the first face 1a, and the first slot 11 includes a slot bottom 11a. The first slot 11 is divided into a first region 111 and a second region 112 in the width direction, and the first region 111 is provided with a plurality of openings 12 penetrating through the panel body 100 in the thickness direction of the panel body 100 from the slot bottom 11a. The plurality of openings 12 are arranged in the length direction of the panel body 100 at intervals and uniformly.
[0037] Compared with the prior art structure of directly opening the opening 12 from the first face 1a, in the embodiment, referring to Figs. 1 and 2, Figure 3 As shown, the first face 1a and the slot bottom 11a form a stepped structure, and more space is left between the opening 12 and the first face 1a, so that the network module 301 or the fiber adapter 302 can be docked with the panel body 100. Referring to Figs. 1 and 2, Figure 3 and Figs. 3 and 4, Figure 8 As shown, when the end of the network module 301 is a flat surface, it can be docked with the panel body 100, and part of the end abuts against the second face 1b around the opening 12; when the end of the fiber adapter 302 is a stepped structure, it can still be docked with the panel body 100 because of the space between the opening 12 and the front end face 131, part of the end abuts against the second face 1b around the opening 12, and part of the end extends into the first slot 11 but does not protrude from the first face 1a. Even the fiber adapter 302 with different end structures can be docked with the panel body 100. At this time, the network module 301 and the fiber adapter 302 with different end structures can be connected with the panel body 100, and the plug-in of different cables is met. At the same time, when the network module 301 is provided with a dustproof door, the space between the first face 1a and the slot bottom 11a is also convenient for the fingers to insert to open the dustproof door.
[0038] Some panels need to place labels to mark the network module 301 at each opening 12. Therefore, referring to Figs. 1 and 2, Figure 1As shown, the panel further comprises a label positioning sheet 200, the opening 12 in the same first groove 11 corresponds to the same label positioning sheet 200, and part of the label positioning sheet 200 can be embedded in the second area 112 and cover the second area 112. The opening 12 is adjacent to the corresponding label positioning sheet 200, which means that the distance between the two adjacent edges of the opening 12 and the label positioning sheet 200 is not greater than 1.5 mm. At this time, there is no separation between the first area and the second area, and the space in the width direction of the panel body is fully utilized, so that unnecessary gaps are reduced, and even if the width of the panel body 100 is small, the label positioning sheet 200 and the plug-in module can be installed at the same time. At the same time, the setting of the first groove 11 can provide space for the label positioning sheet 200, and reduce the space occupied by the panel in the thickness direction.
[0039] In this embodiment, because the space in the thickness direction of the panel body 100 is fully utilized, the installation of different network modules 301 and fiber adapters 302 is possible, especially the network module 301 with a dustproof door, which is convenient for finger operation. At the same time, for the panel with a label positioning sheet 200, the first groove provides space for the label positioning sheet 200, and reduces the thickness of the final panel. At the same time, the opening and the label positioning sheet are adjacent, the unnecessary gap is reduced, the space in the width direction of the panel body 100 is fully utilized, and various network modules 301 and fiber adapters 302 can be freely installed on the panel body 100, thereby improving the versatility of the distribution frame.
[0040] A first protrusion 13 extends from the groove bottom 11a to the side of the first face 1a between two adjacent openings 12, the front end face 131 of the first protrusion 13 away from the groove bottom 11a does not protrude the first face 1a, that is, the first protrusion 13 does not protrude the first groove 11, and in the thickness direction of the panel body 100, the front end face 131 is located between the first face 1a and the groove bottom 11a.
[0041] The setting of the first protrusion 13 increases the strength of the panel body 100.
[0042] Because the first face 1a and the front end face 131 are not in the same vertical plane, a space is formed between the first face 1a and the front end face 131, which provides space for the label positioning sheet 200. When the label positioning sheet 200 is flipped up, the space between the first face 1a and the front end face 131 is sufficient for the label positioning sheet 200 to flip more than 90°, which facilitates the insertion of the label into the label positioning sheet 200.
[0043] In one embodiment, the front end face 131 is flush with the first face 1a, and at this time, the side of the first protrusion 13 facing the label positioning sheet 200 can be arc-shaped to provide space for the swing of the label positioning sheet 200.
[0044] The first groove 11 is provided at least one in the width direction of the panel body 100.
[0045] For example, referring to Fig. 1, the first slot 11 is provided with one, and six openings 12 are formed in each first slot 11. Figure 2 For example, referring to Fig. 2, the first slot 11 is provided with two, and six openings 12 are formed in each first slot 11. Figure 7 For example, referring to Fig. 3, the first slot 11 is provided with two, and six openings 12 are formed in each first slot 11. The openings 12 in the two first slots 11 are aligned in the width direction, and in an embodiment, the openings 12 in the two first slots 11 can also be staggered in the width direction. The number and position of the first slot 11 and the opening 12 can be flexibly set according to actual use.
[0046] The shape of the opening 12 is the same as that of the socket of the network module 301, because the socket is a stepped structure, referring to Fig. 4, therefore one side wall of the opening 12 extending in the length direction of the panel body 100 is also a stepped structure, but the opening 12 is larger than or equal to the area of the socket, so that the socket is completely exposed to facilitate cable insertion. But the opening 12 needs to be smaller than the end of the network module 301, so that the end of the network module 301 does not completely pass out of the opening 12, and part of the end of the network module 301 abuts against the second face 1b to limit the position of the network module 301. Figure 2
[0047] Of course, the shape of the opening 12 can also be square.
[0048] In an embodiment, the label positioning sheet 200 is hinged to the panel body 100, and the label positioning sheet 200 can swing up and down and be clamped and fixed with the panel body 100 to be fixed in a first position. A label can be inserted into the label positioning sheet 200, and the label positioning sheet 200 is made of transparent material and can transmit the label.
[0049] In this embodiment, the label positioning sheet 200 and the panel body 100 adopt a hinged form, which is convenient for opening the label positioning sheet 200 to replace and install the label. At the same time, the hinged connection mode is relatively easy to lose the label positioning sheet 200 compared with the traditional mode of pulling out the label positioning sheet 200.
[0050] For example, referring to Fig. 5, the label positioning sheet 200 includes a positioning sheet body 21 and a connecting part, and the connecting part includes a hinge rod 25 located at both ends of the positioning sheet body 21 in the length direction of the panel body 100. Figure 5 and Fig. 6, the label positioning sheet 200 includes a positioning sheet body 21 and a connecting part, and the connecting part includes a hinge rod 25 located at both ends of the positioning sheet body 21 in the length direction of the panel body 100. Figure 6 As shown in Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, the label positioning sheet 200 includes a positioning sheet body 21 and a connecting part, and the connecting part includes a hinge rod 25 located at both ends of the positioning sheet body 21 in the length direction of the panel body 100. The first face 1a extends outward away from the slot bottom 1111 and has a hinge part 14 located at the position adjacent to the first area 111 and the second area 112, and the hinge rod 25 is inserted into the hinge part 14 and can rotate around the hinge part 14 to realize the swing of the label positioning sheet 200.
[0051] The positioning sheet body 21 is provided with a protrusion 22, and the panel body 100 is provided with a clamping groove 1121 for clamping the protrusion 22, and the clamping groove 1121 and the second area 112 are communicated. When the protrusion 22 is clamped in the clamping groove 1121, the label positioning sheet 200 reaches the first position, at which the label positioning sheet 200 and the label are parallel to the panel body 100. At this time, part of the positioning sheet body 21 is embedded in the second area 112, and because the shape and size of the positioning sheet body 21 are substantially the same as the shape and size of the second area 112, at the first position, the positioning sheet body 21 covers the second area 112, which also plays a role in dust prevention.
[0052] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, Figure 5 and FIGS. 3 and 4, Figure 6 the positioning sheet body 21 includes an inner side surface 211 and an outer side surface 212 arranged in the thickness direction, and when the label positioning sheet 200 is located at the first position, the outer side surface 212 faces the outside of the wiring rack. A pair of positioning blocks 23 are fixed on the inner side surface 211, and the pair of positioning blocks 23 are symmetrically arranged in the length direction. The positioning block 23 is L-shaped and forms a label insertion slot with the inner side surface 211, and the insertion slot is open at both ends in the width direction of the positioning sheet body 21.
[0053] In this embodiment, the label is fixed by arranging the positioning block 23 to form the insertion slot, and the label is inserted from the opening 12. When the label needs to be inserted, an external force is applied to make the protrusion 22 disengage from the clamping groove 1121, and the positioning sheet body 21 swings to a position perpendicular to the panel body 100, at which one opening 12 faces the outside away from the panel body 100, and the label can be horizontally inserted from the opening 12.
[0054] Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, Figure 2 and FIGS. 3 and 4, Figure 3 in one embodiment, the second area 112 is also provided with a clearance groove 1123 communicated therewith, and the clearance groove 1123 corresponds to the positioning block 23 and provides clearance for the clearance groove 1123. When the label positioning sheet 200 is at the first position, because the positioning block 23 protrudes from the inner side surface 211 in the thickness direction, the vertical distance between the groove bottom of the second area 112 and the inner side surface 211 is smaller than the length of the positioning block 23 in the thickness direction, so the clearance groove 1123 is provided to provide clearance for the positioning block 23, so that the label positioning sheet 200 cannot be flipped to the first position due to the limitation of the groove bottom of the second area 112.
[0055] The clearance groove 1123 is a groove opened from the groove bottom of the second area 112 in the thickness direction and towards the second surface 1b, and the clearance groove 1123 can penetrate the panel body 100.
[0056] In one embodiment, the outer side surface 212 is a circular arc structure protruding outward, and the inner side surface 211 is a plane, at which time the positioning sheet body 21 forms a convex mirror, which can magnify the label and facilitate viewing.
[0057] Referring to the drawings Figure 5 As shown in the drawings, in order to facilitate single-handed operation to swing the label positioning sheet 200, the label positioning sheet 200 comprises a second protrusion 24 extending from the outer side 212 to the side away from the inner side 211, and a finger can press on the second protrusion 24 to exert force on the label positioning sheet 200. The protrusions 22 are provided with two, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the second protrusion 24 in the length direction. In this way, the force exerted on the protrusions 22 by the second protrusion 24 is uniform, and the protrusions 22 can quickly disengage from the card slot 1121.
[0058] In an embodiment, the second protrusion 24 is L-shaped, and the second protrusion 24 comprises a horizontal part and a vertical part, the horizontal part is fixed along the thickness direction of the positioning sheet body 21 and the second surface 1b, and the vertical part is fixed on the side of the horizontal part away from the outer side 212 and extends along the width direction of the positioning sheet body 21. At this time, the finger can be inserted into the space between the vertical part and the horizontal part, facilitating the positioning of the hand.
[0059] In an embodiment, in order to facilitate finger operation, a notch one 213 is provided at the corresponding position of the positioning sheet body 21 and the protrusion 2413, and a notch two 1122 is provided at the corresponding position of the second area 112 and the protrusion 2413 along the side wall thereof away from the first area 111, when the label positioning sheet 200 is in the first position, referring to the drawings Figure 1 As shown in the drawings, the notch one 213 and the notch two 1122 abut to form a space for the finger to enter.
[0060] In an embodiment, the groove bottom 11a of the first slot 11 is a stepped structure, and in the thickness direction of the panel body 100, the groove bottom of the second area 112 is located between the groove bottom of the first area 111 and the first surface 1a. Because the label positioning sheet 200 does not require excessive space, the groove bottom 11a of the first slot 11 is set to be stepped, which not only meets the space requirement, but also increases the strength of the panel body 100.
[0061] In an embodiment, a groove corresponding to the first protrusion 13 is provided in the thickness direction from the second surface 1b to the first surface 1a, and the groove is provided without affecting the function of the panel while saving materials and reducing costs.
[0062] In an embodiment, the utility model also discloses a distribution frame, referring to the drawings Figure 8 As shown in the drawings, the distribution frame comprises the above-mentioned panel and a shell fixed with the panel, the shell and the panel define a cavity, and a wiring module corresponding to the opening 12 is fixed in the cavity, and the wiring module is provided with a plug-in port corresponding to the opening 12 and used for plugging the cable.
[0063] The wiring module is a network module 301 or a fiber adapter 302, at this time, the panel of the distribution frame fully utilizes the space in the thickness direction, and can be expanded to simultaneously assemble the network module 301 or the fiber adapter 302 for plugging of different cables, so that the application is wider, and the universality is improved.
[0064] Referring to the drawings Figure 9 As shown in the drawings, in one embodiment, the utility model discloses a kind of fiber boxes, and fiber box includes the panel described above.
