Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of network cabinet technology, and in particular to a desktop home network cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous upgrading and development of modern home network environments, home network cabinets, as important carriers integrating various network devices, cables, and other key components, play a crucial role in the stable and efficient operation of home networks. However, current mainstream home network cabinet products on the market are gradually revealing numerous technical problems in practical applications, which urgently need to be addressed.
[0003] Existing products exhibit a severely homogenized design. They generally adopt a standard 19-inch rack structure, resulting in poor adaptability to home environments. While this design has some universality in traditional large network server room scenarios, it appears out of place in home settings. Their generally large size makes it difficult to flexibly place the racks in home layouts. Whether placed in a corner of the living room, on a study desk, or in the bedroom, their size clashes with the surrounding environment, occupying too much valuable space and causing numerous inconveniences and limitations for home users in terms of interior design and actual usage planning.
[0004] In terms of structural design, traditional network cabinets suffer from excessive redundancy. Their design follows the heavy structural principles of traditional cabinets, failing to adequately consider the lightweight needs of home users. In terms of material selection, they often use bulky metals, and their structural layout is flawed, with overly complex internal support and reinforcement structures. This directly results in an average cabinet weight exceeding 8kg. Such weight not only hinders home users from installing, moving, and adjusting the cabinet's position, but also makes it difficult to place stably in home environments with limited load-bearing capacity, such as floating TV cabinets or simple desks, posing a safety hazard.
[0005] Furthermore, traditional network cabinets have low space utilization and are incompatible with desktop electrical boxes in modern home environments. This not only limits the centralized management of home network devices but also causes home users to face problems such as scattered devices and complex connections when building a multifunctional, integrated home network center, greatly reducing space utilization efficiency and network management convenience. At the same time, the heat dissipation system and cable management module are not optimized for small space scenarios, resulting in localized overheating and messy wiring. Utility Model Content

[0025] The embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only for explaining the present invention and are not restrictive.
[0026] This utility model embodiment provides a desktop home network cabinet, such as Figures 1-2As shown, the desktop home network cabinet of this utility model embodiment includes: a base plate 10, a tray 20, a top panel 30, and two side panels 40. The tray 20 is disposed above the base plate 10 and can be fitted flush with it. The two side panels 40 are respectively disposed on both sides of the base plate 10, and the two side panels 40 can be made of acrylic sheet. The tray 20 has a plurality of first through holes 21 arranged in an array, and the top panel 30 has a plurality of second through holes 31 arranged in an array, both for heat dissipation. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the width of the base plate 10 can be shorter than that of the tray 20, and the size of the tray 20 can correspond to the size of the top panel 30, thereby strengthening the bottom structure while ensuring the overall structural stability of the desktop home network cabinet.
[0027] The top panel 30 has a front crossbar 32 and a rear crossbar 33 on its front and rear sides, respectively. The front crossbar 32 and the rear crossbar 33 are connected to the first column 41 and the second column 42 of the side panel 40, respectively, and are also connected to the first crossbar at the upper end of the side panel 40. Optionally, the first column 41 and the second column 42 may have grooves, and the front crossbar 32 and the rear crossbar 33 can be inserted into the first column 41 and the second column 42 to build the overall structure of the desktop home network cabinet. The first column 41 and the second column 42 have multiple openings based on the EIA-310 vertical opening standard to accommodate the modular installation of home routers, switches, and other network equipment.
[0028] Taking a side panel 40 as an example, the front and rear sides of the side panel 40 are respectively provided with a detachable first column 41 and a second column 42, and the first column 41 and the second column 42 are fixedly connected to the tray 20. In this embodiment, a single side panel 40 has two columns, and the two side panels 40 have a total of four columns, thereby realizing the overall support of the desktop home network cabinet.
[0029] The upper and lower ends of the side panel 40 are respectively provided with a detachable first side crossbar and a second side crossbar. The first side crossbar is fixedly connected to the upper panel 30, and the second side crossbar is fixedly connected to the base plate 10 and the tray 20. A handle 50 is provided on the first crossbar located at the upper end of the side panel 40. The handle 50 is fixedly installed after the upper panel 30 is fixed to the first side crossbar.
[0030] In an optional embodiment, the first and second side crossbars at the upper and lower ends of the side panel 40 can be provided with grooves, and the bottom plate 10 and the top panel 30 can be inserted into the grooves to achieve fixation.
[0031] In this embodiment, the desktop home network cabinet has a cuboid structure, thus forming eight corners. Figures 3-4The diagram shows the structure of one corner of a desktop home network cabinet. The first side crossbar, first upright 41, and front crossbar 32 can form an XYZ structure. The front crossbar 32 can have an extension structure near the first side crossbar, with a first screw hole on this extension structure. Correspondingly, the end face of the first side crossbar can have a second screw hole. The first upright 41 has a third screw hole corresponding to the first and second screw holes. Bolts are sequentially passed through the third, second, and first screw holes to secure the first upright 41, front crossbar 32, and first side crossbar, thus fixing one corner of the desktop home network cabinet. Further, to strengthen the structure, a fourth screw hole can be added near the second screw hole on the first side crossbar, and a fifth screw hole can be added near the third screw hole on the first upright 41. Bolts are then sequentially passed through the fifth and fourth screw holes to further reinforce and fix the first upright 41, front crossbar 32, and first side crossbar. In this embodiment, orthogonal constraints are achieved using two sets of high-strength bolts of grade 8.8 or higher, resulting in a more stable structure. The connections between each column of the side panel 40 and the front crossbar 32, the first side crossbar, and the second side crossbar can all refer to the above structure. In practical applications, profiles with the same cross-section can be used in the XYZ axes, with differentiated cutting processes implemented in the node areas to form a complementary mortise and tenon joint structure.
[0032] See also Figure 2 A first triangular plate 22 and a second triangular plate 23 are vertically arranged on the tray 20. The first triangular plate 22 and the second triangular plate 23 are located at the bottom of both sides of the tray 20 and are close to the front end of the tray 20.
