Detailed Implementation
[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model;
[0026] Please see Figures 1-4 In this utility model: an arrangement and installation structure of an optical module box includes an optical module box body 1, with equally spaced sockets 2 on the right side of the optical module box body 1, and equally spaced circular holes 3 on the top of the optical module box body 1. A fan 4 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the circular holes 3, and a filter mechanism 5 is provided on the inner wall of the circular holes 3. Two annular grooves 6 and annularly distributed heat dissipation grooves 7 are provided on the inner wall of the sockets 2. An air outlet groove 8 is provided on the inner wall of the right annular groove 6, and a flat tube 18 connects the circular holes 3 and the left annular groove 6.
[0027] In this invention, when installing the required optical module on the main body 1 of the optical module box, the optical module is first aligned with the socket 2 and inserted. Once the optical module is inserted into the socket 2, the installation of the optical module is complete. At this time, the outer surface of the optical module will contact the inner wall of the socket 2. When the optical module generates heat during operation, the user turns on the fan 4. The fan 4 draws air into the round hole 3. The air enters the left annular groove 6 through the flat tube 18. The annular groove 6 is annular in shape, so the air then flows from the left annular groove 6 into the annularly distributed heat dissipation grooves 7. After passing through the heat dissipation grooves 7, the air enters the right annular groove 6 and is discharged from the air outlet groove 8. During the flow of the air inside the heat dissipation grooves 7, it carries away the heat generated by the optical module, thereby achieving the effect of heat dissipation and cooling of the optical module. Since the heat dissipation grooves 7 are annularly distributed around the optical module, the heat dissipation uniformity of the optical module is effectively improved, and the overheating of the optical module is avoided.
[0028] Please see Figure 1 , 2 4, wherein: the filter mechanism 5 includes a ring 501, the outer side of the ring 501 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the circular hole 3, and a filter plate 502 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the ring 501.
[0029] In this utility model, the ring 501 can install the filter plate 502, which can filter the air entering the circular hole 3. Dust in the air will be filtered out by the filter plate 502, thereby effectively preventing dust from entering and causing pollution to the interior of the optical module box body 1.
[0030] Please see Figure 3 and 4 Among them, the top of the filter plate 502 is fixedly connected to a knob 9, and the surface of the knob 9 is provided with anti-slip texture.
[0031] In this invention, the knob 9 allows the user to easily rotate the ring 501, making it convenient for the user to disassemble and clean the filter plate 502, thereby improving the practicality of the device.
[0032] Please see Figure 4 The inner wall of the inlet 2 is fixedly connected with a sealing ring 10, and the inner wall of the air outlet 8 is fixedly connected with a filter screen 11.
[0033] In this invention, when the optical module is inserted into the socket 2, the left side of the optical module will enter the sealing ring 10. The sealing ring 10 can seal the connection between the socket 2 and the optical module, preventing moisture from affecting the connection stability between the optical module box body 1 and the optical module.
[0034] Please see Figures 1-3 The optical module box body 1 has a horizontal plate 12 fixedly connected to the right side, a protective frame 13 is provided above the horizontal plate 12, two positioning rods 14 are fixedly connected to the top of the horizontal plate 12, two square holes 15 are opened at the bottom of the protective frame 13 and are slidably connected to the positioning rods 14, and rubber blocks 16 are fixedly connected to the opposite sides of the two positioning rods 14.
[0035] In this invention, when installing the optical module, the user can pull the protective frame 13 upwards. The square hole 15 on the protective frame 13 will slide along the positioning rod 14. At this time, the protective frame 13 will be pulled away from the right side of the optical module box body 1. Then, the optical module can be installed. After the optical module is installed, the user pulls the protective frame 13 downwards until the square hole 15 fits into the rubber block 16. The rubber block 16 is squeezed into the square hole 15. At this time, a large friction force will be generated between the rubber block 16 and the square hole 15, thereby achieving the effect of locking the position of the protective frame 13. The protective frame 13 and the horizontal plate 12 can form a protective box, which can protect the part of the optical module protruding from the optical module box body 1 when the optical module box body 1 is dropped or bumped, avoiding the optical module being directly impacted, thereby reducing the occurrence of damage to the optical module. It can also avoid damage to the socket 2 and improve the protective effect of the installation structure.
[0036] Please see Figure 2 and 3 The inner side of the protective frame 13 is fixedly connected with locking plates 17 arranged at equal intervals, and the locking plates 17 are C-shaped.
[0037] In this utility model, after the protective frame 13 is locked, the locking plate 17 will be fastened to one end of the optical module protruding from the main body 1 of the optical module box, thereby achieving the effect of limiting the optical module and locking the optical module, preventing the optical module from sliding out of the socket 2, and improving the stability of the installation structure between the main body 1 of the optical module box and the optical module.
[0038] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model; however, the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and its improved concept, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
