Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of switch technology, specifically to an industrial-grade switch interface module that can be quickly plugged in and out. Background Technology

[0002] An optical interface module, or simply an optical module, consists of optoelectronic devices, functional circuits, and an optical interface. The optoelectronic devices include both transmitting and receiving parts. Simply put, the function of an optical module is to convert electrical signals into optical signals at the transmitting end, transmit them through optical fiber, and then convert the optical signals back into electrical signals at the receiving end. An optical module is an optoelectronic device that performs photoelectric and electro-optical conversion. The transmitting end of the optical module converts electrical signals into optical signals, and the receiving end converts optical signals back into electrical signals. Optical modules are classified according to their packaging form, with common types including SFP, SFP+, SFF, and Gigabit Ethernet interface converters.

[0003] A search revealed a patent application (application number 202321644104.7) describing a switch optical interface module. The module includes a frame housing, an auxiliary positioning housing fixed to one end of the frame housing, and an optical interface body disposed inside the frame housing. The frame housing and the auxiliary positioning housing each have a first cavity and a second cavity that communicate with each other. Two sliding grooves are formed at the top and bottom of one side of the frame housing. Each sliding groove is movably connected to a roller via a pivot. A spring plate is located at the bottom of each roller, and a spring is located at the bottom of the spring plate. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the optical interface body, and the other end is fixedly connected to the spring plate. The optical interface module of this switch uses a sliding groove and rollers. When the optical interface module is inserted into the switch, the rollers are movably connected through the rotating shaft of the sliding groove, which guides the optical interface module during insertion, reduces friction, and helps it fit better into the corresponding hole. The bottom of the spring abuts against the surface of the optical interface body to keep it fixed. The optical interface module also utilizes a spring plate, spring, and rollers to allow for inspection of the internal condition of the optical interface module after prolonged use. By pulling it out of the optical interface unit, the rollers press down the spring plate and the bottom spring, popping the optical interface body out for easy inspection of the internal structure of the frame housing, allowing for viewing of the first and second cavities.

[0004] The overall insertion structure has few limiting structures, relying only on the limiting wheel at the rear for limiting. The overall front stability is poor, and the PCBA at the rear is easily damaged during insertion and removal. In addition, there are few operable parts for the hand during insertion and removal, which affects the force exerted by the hand.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to design an industrial-grade switch interface module that can be quickly plugged in and out to solve the problems mentioned in the background technology. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems in the prior art by proposing a quick-pluggable industrial-grade switch interface module.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0008] A quick-pluggable industrial-grade switch interface module includes a housing, a plug-in protrusion, a connector, a folding pull plate, and a PCBA. The PCBA is connected inside the housing, the connector is connected to the front of the housing, the plug-in protrusion is connected to the outside of the housing near the front, and the folding pull plate is connected to the upper end of the connector.

[0009] The upper end of the outer shell is provided with sliding grooves on both sides, and multiple sets of snap-fit ​​grooves are provided on both sides of the outer shell;

[0010] The connector has multiple sets of insertion slots on its front side.

[0011] The upper part of the folding pull plate is provided with an anti-slip strip near the front, and the lower part of the folding pull plate is provided with multiple sets of limiting grooves.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the folding pull plate and the connector are connected by a pivot.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the multiple sets of plug slots on the front of the connector are connected to the industrial-grade switch data cable by plugging and unplugging, and the limiting slot is connected to the industrial-grade switch data cable by snap-fit.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the PCBA and the industrial-grade switch are connected via a plug-in connection.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the plug-in protrusion is connected to the industrial-grade switch via a plug-in connection, and the plug-in protrusion is connected to the outer casing via bolts.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the outer shell is connected by a sliding groove, a snap-fit ​​groove, and a protruding structure in the industrial-grade switch interface.

[0017] In summary, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: When not in use, the folding plate of this quick-pluggable industrial-grade switch interface module can be directly stacked on the top of the housing. When in use, the folding plate can be directly unfolded to form a handheld part, making it convenient to apply force during plugging and unplugging, thus facilitating plugging and unplugging. The data cable connected to the connector can be locked in the limiting groove to limit the data cable and reduce the risk of data cable detachment. During the overall plugging and unplugging, the sliding groove and locking groove provide overall guidance and limiting, allowing the entire assembly to move along the sliding groove and be locked by the locking groove. The arc-shaped locking groove facilitates the movement of the protruding structure inside the industrial-grade switch interface during plugging and unplugging, reducing the occurrence of internal jamming. Furthermore, the end face near the industrial-grade switch interface is limited by the plugging protrusion, which can improve the stability of the end face. During plugging and unplugging, the PCBA at the tail end remains stable and avoids bending damage. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Reference Figures 1-3 A quick-pluggable industrial-grade switch interface module includes a housing 1, a plug-in protrusion 2, a connector 3, a folding pull plate 4, and a PCBA 5. The PCBA 5 is connected inside the housing 1, the connector 3 is connected to the front of the housing 1, the plug-in protrusion 2 is connected to the outside of the housing 1 near the front, and the folding pull plate 4 is connected to the upper end of the connector 3. Sliding grooves 101 are provided on both sides of the upper end of the housing 1, and multiple sets of snap-fit ​​grooves 102 are provided on both sides of the housing 1. Multiple sets of plug-in grooves 301 are provided on the front of the connector 3. Anti-slip strips 401 are provided on the upper end of the folding pull plate 4 near the front, and multiple sets of limiting grooves 402 are provided on the lower end of the folding pull plate 4.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The folding pull plate 4 and the connector 3 are connected by a pivot. The multiple sets of plug slots 301 on the front of the connector 3 are connected to the industrial-grade switch data cable by plugging and unplugging. The limiting slot 402 is connected to the industrial-grade switch data cable by snap-fit. The folding pull plate 4 is a foldable structure. When not in use, it can be directly stacked on the top of the outer shell 1. When in use, the folding pull plate 4 can be directly unfolded to form a hand-held part, which makes it convenient to use force when plugging and unplugging, thus making it easy to plug and unplug. The data cable connected to the connector 3 can be snapped into the limiting slot 402 to limit the data cable and reduce the data cable from coming off.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 PCBA5 and the industrial-grade switch are connected via a plug-in connection. The plug-in protrusion 2 and the industrial-grade switch are also connected via a plug-in connection. The plug-in protrusion 2 and the outer shell 1 are connected via bolts. The outer shell 1 is connected to the protrusion structure inside the industrial-grade switch interface via a sliding groove 101 and a snap-fit ​​groove 102. During the overall plug-in process, the sliding groove 101 and the snap-fit ​​groove 102 provide overall guidance and limitation, allowing the entire assembly to move along the sliding groove 101 during plug-in and unplugging. The snap-fit ​​groove 102 provides limitation and locking. The arc-shaped snap-fit ​​groove 102 facilitates the movement of the protrusion structure inside the industrial-grade switch interface during plug-in and unplugging, reducing the occurrence of internal jamming. The plug-in protrusion 2 provides limitation near the end face of the industrial-grade switch interface, which improves the stability at the end face. During plug-in and unplugging, the PCBA at the tail end is kept stable and avoids bending damage.

[0026] Working principle: The folding pull plate 4 and connector 3 of the quick-pluggable industrial-grade switch interface module are connected by a hinge. Multiple sets of plug-in slots 301 on the front of connector 3 are plugged into and plugged into the data cable of the industrial-grade switch. The limiting slot 402 is also connected to the data cable of the industrial-grade switch via a snap-fit ​​connection. The folding pull plate 4 is foldable; when not in use, it can be stacked directly on top of the outer casing 1. When in use, the folding pull plate 4 is unfolded to form a handheld part, facilitating easy plugging and unplugging. The data cable connected to connector 3 can be snapped into the limiting slot 402, limiting the data cable and reducing the risk of it coming loose. PCBA5 is plugged into the industrial-grade switch. The plug-in protrusion 2 connects to the industrial-grade switch... The replacement units are connected by a plug-in connection. The plug-in protrusion 2 and the outer shell 1 are connected by bolts. The outer shell 1 is connected to the protrusion structure inside the industrial-grade switch interface through the slide groove 101, the snap-fit ​​groove 102, and the plug-in connection. When the whole unit is plugged in, the slide groove 101 and the snap-fit ​​groove 102 guide and limit the whole unit, so that the whole unit can move along the slide groove 101 when plugging and unplugging, and the snap-fit ​​groove 102 limits the snap-fit. The arc-shaped snap-fit ​​groove 102 facilitates the movement of the protrusion structure inside the industrial-grade switch interface during plugging and unplugging, reducing the occurrence of internal jamming. The plug-in protrusion 2 limits the end face near the industrial-grade switch interface, which can improve the stability of the end face. When plugging and unplugging, the PCBA at the tail end is kept stable and avoids bending damage.
