[0024] 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 a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. In addition, the technical solutions of various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those of ordinary skill in the art to implement them.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-11 As shown, the quick-release end cap structure includes a housing body 1, an end cap 2, and an inner cover plate 3 located on the side end face of the housing body 1. The end cap 2 is located on one side of the inner cover plate 3. The inner cover plate 3 has a first mounting hole 4 and a second mounting hole 5 with a lateral guide structure at opposite diagonal positions. The end cap 2 is correspondingly provided with a mating post 7 with a locking boss 6 and a positioning post 8. The mating post 7 is provided with a first locking element adapted to the lateral guide structure. The lateral guide structure includes an inlet channel 10 of a first width and a limiting opening 11 of a second width is formed on the first mounting hole 4. The diameter of the boss 6 is larger than that of the limiting opening 11 and is consistent with that of the first mounting hole 4. The positioning post 8 is connected to the second mounting hole 5 through a second locking element.
[0026] Specifically, the guide structure on the first mounting hole 4 is a horizontal guide located at the upper side. The boss 6 on the mating post 7 mates with the limiting port 11 and is embedded in the first mounting hole 4 to ensure that it is limited in the direction parallel to the inner cover plate 3. The first locking member 9 is in the first mounting hole 4 and limits it in the direction perpendicular to the inner cover plate 3.
[0027] In order to ensure that the inner cover plate 3 can be completely covered after installation, a notch 13 is provided on the end cover 2 for the inner cover plate 3 to enter from the side. The inner cover plate 3 matches the inner peripheral wall of the end cover 2 and can be matched. In order to prevent the inner cover plate 3 from being exposed, the thickness of the inner cover plate 3 needs to be consistent with the height of the notch 13. Similarly, the height of the matching post and the positioning post 8 needs to be ensured not to exceed the bottom surface of the notch 13, preferably, they are kept flush.
[0028] It should be noted that the height of the boss 6 needs to exceed the horizontal bottom surface height of the notched edge 13, while ensuring that it does not exceed the horizontal edge surface of the end cap 2. Preferably, the height of the boss 6 is flush with the horizontal edge surface of the end cap 2 and consistent with the thickness of the inner cover plate 3. The first locking member 9 and the second locking member 12 are both screws, including a screw 14 screwed into the inside and an exposed end 15. It is necessary to ensure that the diameter of the end 15 is greater than the diameter of the first mounting hole 4 and less than the first width of the guide channel 10.
[0029] The end cap 2 is a concave shell. In order to ensure structural strength, a number of reinforcing ribs 16 are provided on its concave peripheral wall. Since its shape is rectangular, preferably, three reinforcing ribs 16 are provided in its length direction and two reinforcing ribs 16 are provided in its width direction.
[0030] The main body 1 of the cover includes a front end 17 and a rear end 18. The front end 17 of the main body 1 is a curved arm extension structure, which restricts the operation of the mounting screw. An installation space can be provided at the rear end 18. Therefore, for the convenience of installing the end cover 2, the notch 13 is provided on the end cover 2 on the side of the rear end 18. The first mounting hole 4 is located on the inner cover plate 3 on the side close to the front end 17.
[0031] The working process of this utility model is as follows: The main body 1 of the cover has been installed on the wall. The first locking member 9 is pre-installed on the protrusion 6 on the end cover 2. When installing the end cover 2, the end cover 2 is first fastened to the inner cover plate 3 and fits against the inner cover plate 3, ensuring that the side with the missing edge 13 faces inward. At this time, the first locking member 9 is located in the guide channel 10. The end cover 2 is moved from the front end 17 to the rear end 18. The protrusion 6 enters the first mounting hole 4 through the limiting port 11. At this time, the second mounting hole 5 matches and aligns with the positioning post 8. On the inner side of the inner cover plate 3, the end cover 2 is fastened to the inner end cover 2 by screwing in the second locking member 12.
