Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electronic product technology, and more specifically, to an outer cover structure and a multi-functional master-slave integrated machine. Background Technology
[0002] Multifunctional master-slave PCs are commonly used in industry. To enhance connectivity with other devices, they typically feature multiple connection ports on a single electronic board, allowing data or signal transmission to different devices through each port. An outer cover is usually added to the outside of the PC, with connecting structures on it to secure the PC to mounting brackets or other equipment.
[0003] The different connection ports in an all-in-one PC have different sizes. To accommodate multiple connection ports, they are usually located at both ends of the all-in-one PC, and often some of these ports protrude from the edge of the all-in-one PC. Currently, the outer cover of an all-in-one PC is a single piece. When installing the all-in-one PC to the cover, you can only align one connection port of the all-in-one PC with an opening on one side of the cover first, and then rotate the all-in-one PC inside the cover until the connection port of the other end of the all-in-one PC aligns with the other opening on the cover.
[0004] However, rotating the all-in-one machine can easily cause deformation of its connection ports, affecting its normal function and making the installation process more difficult. Utility Model Content
