[0018] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0019] All features disclosed in this specification, or all steps in all disclosed methods or processes, may be combined in any way, except for mutually exclusive features and / or steps.

[0020] Any feature disclosed in this specification (including any appended claims, abstract, and drawings) may be replaced by other equivalent or similar features, unless specifically stated otherwise. That is, unless specifically stated otherwise, each feature is merely one example of a series of equivalent or similar features.

[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, this utility model discloses an Internet of Things (IoT) communication gateway, comprising a device body 1. The interface 10 of the device body 1 is provided with a housing 2 and a cover 3. The end face of the housing 2 away from the device body 1 is provided with a wiring groove 4. The inner side of the cover 3 protrudes to form an insertion part 5 opposite to the wiring groove 4. One end of the insertion part 5 is inserted into the wiring groove 4 and is provided with an arc-shaped groove. The arc-shaped groove and the wiring groove 4 are combined to form a wiring hole. The inside of the housing 2 is provided with a baffle 6 to block the inner opening of the wiring hole. A base 7 is installed on the side face of the housing 2 away from the cover 3. The device body is a communication gateway.

[0022] In this embodiment, the baffles 6 are all made of elastic rubber material. One side of each baffle 6 is in contact with the inner wall of the housing 2. Both sides of the baffle 6 protrude to form thickened parts. Each thickened part is provided with a vertical positioning hole. Each positioning hole is provided with a positioning rod 11. One end of each positioning rod 11 is installed on the inner wall of the housing 2, and the other end extends into the housing 2. Each positioning rod 11 is also provided with a fixing block 8. One end of each fixing block 8 is installed on the inner wall of the housing 2.

[0023] In this embodiment, a compression spring 9 is sleeved on the exposed section of the positioning rod 11. One end of the compression spring 9 is installed on the end face of the thickened part, and the other end is installed on the fixing block 8.

[0024] The baffle is positioned by a positioning rod, which allows it to spring back or be flattened along the rod, thus increasing the sealing quality. The compression spring pulls the baffle up more efficiently, preventing it from failing to return to its original position.

[0025] In this embodiment, the housing 2 and the device body 1 are fixedly connected by hinges, and the cover plate and the housing 2 are fixedly connected by torsion spring hinges. The torsion force of the torsion spring hinge is greater than the rebound force of the compression spring and the baffle. Therefore, after the connector is inserted into the interface, the cover can smoothly press down the wire on the connector, avoiding being pushed up by the rebound force of the compression spring and the baffle, so that the connector can be covered inside the housing and the cover.

[0026] In this embodiment, the end face of the base 7 is flush with the bottom face of the device body 1, so that after the device body is placed flat, the base can abut against the table or any flat surface on which it is placed, thereby positioning the shell upward and preventing the shell from opening downward.

[0027] In this embodiment, the height of the baffle 6 is greater than the diameter of the wiring hole, and the width of the baffle 6 is also greater than the diameter of the wiring hole, so that the baffle can fully block the wiring hole and prevent external dust and moisture from entering.

[0028] In this embodiment, both the cover 3 and the housing 2 are made of plastic material, which reduces costs, avoids electrical conductivity, and increases safety.

[0029] In this embodiment, a rubber layer is installed on the open end face of the housing 2, and the rubber layer is fitted to the inner side of the cover 3, which increases the sealing between the cover and the housing.

[0030] When not in use, the casing, cover, and baffle can completely cover all the interfaces on the device body, preventing the intrusion of external dust and moisture.

[0031] When wiring is required, the device body can be lifted directly. After the bottom of the housing is no longer obstructed, the housing can open downwards on its own, centered on the hinge, so that the interface can be exposed, which facilitates the insertion of the connector and the interface. After the connector is inserted, the device body can be laid flat again. At this time, the base will be freed from the pressure of the lower plane, causing the housing to lift upwards centered on the hinge. During the lifting process, the baffle will be squeezed by the wire. At this time, the baffle will be flattened and descend along the positioning rod, and the wire can smoothly enter the wiring channel.

[0032] As the housing continues to rise, the open end face of the housing cover can fit against the inner side of the housing cover, and the plug on the housing cover can be inserted into the wiring groove and press the outer wall of the wire. The inward pressure between the plug and the baffle can clamp the wire, increasing the stability of the connector after plugging.

[0033] The shell can be fitted with counterweights in any empty area inside, which can better hold the shell in place.

[0034] Since the cover is connected to the equipment body via a torsion spring hinge, the cover can be opened. Once the cover is opened, the connection status of the internal connectors can be clearly seen, facilitating inspection.

[0035] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions conceived without inventive effort should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
