[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a small industrial Internet of Things gateway, including a shell 1, a power interface 2, a broadband interface 3, a wiring groove 4 and an indicator light 5 on one side surface of the shell 1, a control module 6 on the inner wall surface of the shell 1, a cover opening fixed shaft 7 fixedly connected to one side surface of the shell 1, a cover opening rotating shaft 8 rotatably connected to the inner wall surface of the cover opening fixed shaft 7, a cover opening plate 9 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the cover opening rotating shaft 8, and a module cover opening mechanism 10 on one side surface of the cover opening plate 9;

[0023] The modular cover opening mechanism 10 includes a male mounting component 1001, which is fixedly connected to one side surface of the cover plate 9. A female mounting component 1002 is attached to one side surface of the male mounting component 1001. A limit rod 1003 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the female mounting component 1002. A locking spring 1004 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the limit rod 1003. A limit base 1005 is slidably connected to one side surface of the limit rod 1003. A release linkage 1006 is fixedly connected to one side surface of the male mounting component 1001. A linkage plate 1007 is rotatably connected to one side surface of the release linkage 1006. A linkage disc 1008 is rotatably connected to one side surface of the linkage plate 1007. A release disc 1009 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the linkage disc 1008. A locking block 1010 is attached to one side surface of the cover plate 9. A return spring 1011 is attached to one side surface of the locking block 1010. The mechanism is operated by a modular cover opening machine. With the configuration of structure 10, during use, rotating the release disc 1009 drives the linkage disc 1008 to rotate, which in turn drives the linkage plate 1007 to rotate. The linkage plate 1007 pulls the release linkage 1006 to slide, causing the mounting female part 1002 and the limit rod 1003 to slide, pressing the locking spring 1004 and releasing the mounting female part 1002 from the mounting male part 1001. At the same time, the reset spring 1011 pushes the locking block 1010 to slide. Due to gravity, the opening plate 9 rotates along the opening fixed axis 7 and the opening rotating axis 8 and separates from the outer shell 1. After maintenance, rotating the opening plate 9 causes the mounting male part 1001 to press the mounting female part 1002, and the locking spring 1004 releases its elastic potential energy to push the mounting female part 1002 to limit the mounting male part 1001. This allows for convenient and quick removal, separation, installation, and reset of the opening plate 9 and the outer shell 1, facilitating maintenance of the internal control module 6 and improving the efficiency and convenience of equipment maintenance.

[0024] Furthermore, multiple sets of wiring slots 4 and indicator lights 5 are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the housing 1. Each set of wiring slots 4 is fixedly connected to a set of indicator lights 5 through the control module 6. With the arrangement of wiring slots 4 and indicator lights 5, multiple devices to be controlled can be easily connected during use, and the connection status of each device can be intuitively determined through the corresponding indicator lights 5. This facilitates the management of the devices and troubleshooting, and improves the operational convenience and monitorability of the gateway control device.

[0025] Furthermore, a locking groove is provided on one side surface of the outer casing 1, and the mounting part 1001 fits into one side surface of the outer casing 1 through the locking groove.

[0026] Furthermore, a groove is provided on one side surface of the outer shell 1. The mounting female part 1002 is slidably connected to one side surface of the outer shell 1 through the groove. By providing the groove, the sliding of the mounting female part 1002 can be guided and supported during use, making the sliding process of the mounting female part 1002 more stable and smooth when the mounting female part 1002 releases or restores the limiting engagement state of the mounting male part 1001, thus ensuring the normal operation and reliable operation of the module opening mechanism 10.

[0027] Furthermore, two sets of mounting male component 1001, mounting female component 1002, limiting rod 1003, engaging spring 1004, and limiting base 1005 are symmetrically arranged around the central axis of the cover plate 9. The mounting female component 1002 is attached to one side surface of the mounting male component 1001 through the limiting rod 1003, engaging spring 1004, and limiting base 1005. Through the arrangement of the mounting male component 1001, mounting female component 1002, limiting rod 1003, engaging spring 1004, and limiting base 1005, the connection between the cover plate 9 and the outer shell 1 is made more stable and the force is evenly distributed during use. At the same time, when opening and closing the cover, the symmetrical structure can ensure synchronous action on both sides, which improves the stability and reliability of the module cover opening mechanism 10 and facilitates the maintenance of the equipment.

[0028] Furthermore, two sets of release linkage 1006 and linkage plate 1007 are symmetrically arranged around the central axis of linkage disc 1008. The two sets of mounting female parts 1002 form a linkage structure through release linkage 1006, linkage plate 1007 and linkage disc 1008. Through the arrangement of release linkage 1006 and linkage plate 1007, synchronous control of the two sets of mounting female parts 1002 can be achieved during use. When the release disc 1009 is rotated to drive the linkage disc 1008 to rotate, the two sets of mounting female parts 1002 can simultaneously release the limit on the mounting male part 1001, thereby allowing the cover plate 9 to open smoothly, improving the efficiency and consistency of the opening and closing operation, and facilitating rapid maintenance of the equipment's internal parts.

[0029] Furthermore, three sets of return springs 1011 are symmetrically arranged around the central axis of the locking block 1010. The locking block 1010 is slidably connected to the inner wall surface of the outer shell 1 through the return springs 1011. With the arrangement of the return springs 1011, in use, after the mounting female part 1002 releases the limiting locking state of the mounting male part 1001, the stable elastic force generated by the symmetrical distribution of the three sets of return springs 1011 can quickly and evenly push the locking block 1010 to slide along the inner wall of the outer shell 1, thereby causing the opening plate 9 to rotate smoothly and open due to gravity. When closing the opening plate 9, it can also assist the locking block 1010 to reset better, ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the opening and closing operation.

[0030] Working principle: When the device is put into use, power is supplied to the power interface 2 and broadband interface 3 to connect the gateway to the network. The wiring of the device to be controlled is then inserted into the wiring slot 4 as needed. At this point, the device connection is complete, and the indicator light 5 corresponding to each wiring slot 4 illuminates, enabling gateway control. If the light does not illuminate, the outer casing 1 needs to be disassembled to inspect the control module 6 inside. Using the module opening mechanism 10, the release plate 1009 is rotated. The rotation of the release plate 1009 drives the linkage plate 1008 to rotate, which in turn drives the two sets of linkage plates 1007 rotatably connected to one side of the linkage plate 1008 to rotate. The rotation of the linkage plates 1007 pulls the release linkage 1006 to slide along the groove on one side of the outer casing 1, thereby causing the mounting mother 1002 and the limit rod 1003 to slide, pressing against the limit base 1005. The locking spring 1004, fixedly connected to the wall surface, releases the limiting locking state of the mounting female part 1002 on the mounting male part 1001. At this time, the reset spring 1011, fixedly connected to the inner wall surface of the outer shell 1, releases its elastic force to push the locking block 1010 to slide along the inner wall surface of the outer shell 1. Due to the influence of gravity, the opening plate 9 rotates along the rotation center of the opening fixed axis 7 and the opening rotating axis 8, realizing the removal and separation of the opening plate 9 and the outer shell 1. After maintenance is completed, the opening plate 9 is rotated, and the mounting male part 1001 slides along one side surface of the mounting female part 1002, pressing the mounting female part 1002 to slide and pressing the locking spring 1004 until it exceeds the necessary limit. The locking spring 1004 releases its elastic potential energy to push the mounting female part 1002 to limit the mounting male part 1001, realizing flexible opening and closing of the cover for maintenance. This completes the use process of a small industrial Internet of Things gateway.

[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
