[0003] Existing gateway devices typically use screw fastening or snap-fit ​​connections to encapsulate the casing. When electronic components malfunction and need repair or replacement, the disassembly process is cumbersome, consuming a lot of time and manpower. Frequent screw removal can also easily lead to stripped screw holes and damaged snaps, which may reduce the lifespan of the device. Furthermore, if the device is not installed properly during reinstallation, it may affect the device's sealing and protection performance. Therefore, we have launched a field-visualized gateway device. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a field visualization gateway device that is easy to disassemble and features automatic temperature warning alarms, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background technology.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the spring is located in the inner cavity of the second circular groove, and one end is connected to the connecting column, and the other end is connected to the inner wall of the second circular groove. The outer wall of the slide plate is in contact with the inner wall of the slide groove and slides.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the top of the pin is provided with an inclined surface and is slidably fitted to the bottom of the upper cover plate; the outer wall of the push plate is slidably fitted to the inner wall of the first circular groove; and the outer wall of the pin is adapted to the shape of the inner wall of the slot.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the connecting component is regarded as a group of active components, and the number of the active components is five, which are arranged in parallel.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the early warning component includes a housing, an installation cylinder is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the housing, an alarm light and a buzzer are respectively provided on the top of the installation cylinder, an electrode plate is provided on the inner wall of the installation cylinder, a second sliding groove is opened on the outer wall of the installation cylinder, a nickel-titanium alloy wire is provided at the bottom of the installation cylinder, a ceramic column is provided in the inner cavity of the installation cylinder, and a striker is fixedly mounted on the top of the ceramic column.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model: the alarm light and the buzzer are located in the inner cavity of the housing, there are two nickel-titanium alloy wires, one end of the two nickel-titanium alloy wires overlaps with the mounting cylinder, and the other end overlaps with the top of the ceramic column.

The electrode plate is located on the top of the striker and is electrically connected to the alarm light and the buzzer respectively.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] 1. This on-site visual gateway device, through the design of its connection components, allows for easy maintenance by simply rotating the shaft counterclockwise. The shaft drives the push plate to slide, which in turn pushes the locking plate, causing the connecting post to shift and the pin to disengage from the slot. This unlocks the upper cover and lower housing, effectively shortening disassembly time, reducing the workload of maintenance personnel, and preventing component damage caused by frequent disassembly of screws or clips. This extends the overall service life of the equipment and effectively improves the efficiency and convenience of equipment maintenance.

[0014] 2. This on-site visualization gateway device, when the temperature of electronic components rises abnormally, conducts heat through a ceramic column to a nickel-titanium alloy wire. The nickel-titanium alloy wire deforms and contracts due to the high temperature, causing the ceramic column to slide, bringing the striker into contact with the electrode plate and triggering an alarm light and buzzer. This provides an audible and visual alert to staff regarding equipment malfunctions, allowing them to take timely measures to prevent serious consequences such as performance degradation, component burnout, or even fire caused by prolonged high-temperature operation. When the temperature returns to normal, the nickel-titanium alloy wire automatically resets under the counterweight of the ceramic column, preparing for the next warning. This effectively improves the safety and stability of equipment operation and reduces economic losses caused by equipment failures. Attached Figure Description

[0024] 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.

[0025] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 6 A field visualization gateway device includes a lower housing 1, with a connection port 2 on the outer wall of the lower housing 1, one end of a hinge 3 rotatably connected to the lower housing 1, and the other end of the hinge 3 rotatably connected to an upper cover plate 4. The inner wall of the lower housing 1 is provided with a first circular groove 5, a second circular groove 6, a guide groove 8, and a sliding groove 9. The inner wall of the upper cover plate 4 is provided with a slot 7. The inner wall of the lower housing 1 is provided with a connection component 10, and the top of the lower housing 1 is provided with an early warning component 11.

[0026] The connecting assembly 10 includes a spring 101, a connecting post 102 slidably connected to the inner wall of the guide groove 8, a sliding plate 103 fixedly mounted on the top of the connecting post 102, a locking plate 104 fixedly mounted on the bottom of the connecting post 102, a rotating shaft 105 provided in the inner cavity of the first circular groove 5, a push plate 106 fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the rotating shaft 105, and a pin 107 fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the connecting post 102.

[0027] In the above structure, by setting the lower box 1 and the upper cover 4, the rotating shaft 105 causes the push plate 106 and the locking plate 104 to rotate counterclockwise. The rotating shaft 105 drives the push plate 106 to contact the push plate 106, which in turn pushes the locking plate 104. This causes the connecting post 102 to disengage the pin 107 from the inner cavity of the slot 7 through the displacement of the locking plate 104. This achieves the fixed unlocking of the connection between the upper cover 4 and the lower box 1, allowing the upper cover 4 to open and close by rotating around the lower box 1 at a 90-degree angle via the hinge 3. This facilitates the maintenance and replacement of the electronic components inside the lower box 1.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment: the spring 101 is located in the inner cavity of the second circular groove 6, and one end is connected to the connecting post 102, and the other end is connected to the inner wall of the second circular groove 6. The outer wall of the slide plate 103 is in contact with the inner wall of the slide groove 9 and is slidably disposed.

[0029] In the above structure, by setting the spring 101, when the spring 101 slides along the inner wall of the guide groove 8, the connecting column 102 will drive the slide plate 103 to slide along the inner wall of the slide groove 9. The sliding connecting column 102 will drive the spring 101 to compress, and the connecting column 102 can also rebound and reset by the compression of the spring 101.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment: the top of the pin 107 is provided with a slope and is slidably disposed in contact with the bottom of the upper cover plate 4; the outer wall of the push plate 106 is slidably disposed in contact with the inner wall of the first circular groove 5; and the outer wall of the pin 107 is adapted to the shape of the inner wall of the slot 7.

[0031] In the above structure, by setting the pin 107, when the inclined surface at the top of the pin 107 contacts the bottom of the upper cover plate 4, the sliding upper cover plate 4 will press against the outer wall of the pin 107, thereby causing the pin 107 to drive the connecting post 102 to slide along the inner wall of the guide groove 8. When the pin 107 corresponds to the inner wall of the slot 7, the pin 107 will be spring-returned by the spring 101 through the connecting post 102, so that the pin 107 will return to the inner cavity of the slot 7, thereby making it... Once the engagement is complete, the rotating shaft 105 is rotated counterclockwise, causing the rotating shaft 105 to drive the push plate 106 to slide along the inner wall of the first circular groove 5. When the push plate 106 contacts the outer wall of the locking plate 104, it pushes the locking plate 104 to slide along the inner wall of the guide groove 8. The sliding locking plate 104 causes the connecting post 102 to move, and the moving connecting post 102 causes the pin 107 fixedly mounted on the outer wall to disengage from the inner wall of the slot 7, thereby completing the unlocking.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment: the connecting component 10 is regarded as a group of active components, and the number of the active components is five, which are arranged in parallel.

[0033] In the above structure, by setting the connecting components 10, the upper cover plate 4 is fixedly connected to the lower box 1 by five sets of parallel connecting components 10, making it more stable and less prone to shaking.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment: the warning component 11 includes a housing 111, an mounting cylinder 112 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the housing 111, an alarm light 113 and a buzzer 114 are respectively provided on the top of the mounting cylinder 112, an electrode plate 115 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting cylinder 112, a sliding groove 116 is provided on the outer wall of the mounting cylinder 112, a nickel-titanium alloy wire 117 is provided at the bottom of the mounting cylinder 112, a ceramic column 118 is provided in the inner cavity of the mounting cylinder 112, and a firing pin 119 is fixedly mounted on the top of the ceramic column 118.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment: the alarm light 113 and the buzzer 114 are located in the inner cavity of the housing 111. There are two nickel-titanium alloy wires 117, one end of which is connected to the mounting cylinder 112 and the other end is connected to the top of the ceramic column 118. The two nickel-titanium alloy wires 117 are spirally arranged. The outer wall of the ceramic column 118 is slidably attached to the inner wall of the slide groove 116. The electrode plate 115 is located on the top of the striker 119 and is electrically connected to the alarm light 113 and the buzzer 114 respectively.

[0036] In the above structure, by setting the nickel-titanium alloy wires 117, when the electronic components inside the lower housing 1 experience abnormally high temperatures, the temperature is conducted through the ceramic pillar 118 to the ends of the two nickel-titanium alloy wires 117. This causes the two spirally arranged nickel-titanium alloy wires 117 to deform under the high temperature conduction, resulting in contraction at their ends. The two nickel-titanium alloy wires 117 then drive the ceramic pillar 118 to slide along the inner wall of the second groove 116, causing the striker 119 to move closer to the electrode plate 115 as the ceramic pillar 118 slides. This, in turn, causes the striker 119 to... When the electrode 115 comes into contact with the bottom of the electrode 115, it triggers the alarm light 113 and the buzzer 114. The alarm light 113 flashes red, and the buzzer 114 continuously sounds an alarm to alert the staff. After the electronic components return to normal temperature, the two spirally arranged nickel-titanium alloy wires 117 are reset by the counterweight of the ceramic column 118. This causes the striker 119 to disengage from the contact point of the electrode 115 with the reset of the ceramic column 118, thereby cutting off the activation signal of the alarm light 113 and the buzzer 114, preparing for the next warning.

[0037] Working principle: First, when it is necessary to maintain its electronic components, rotate the shaft 105 counterclockwise. The shaft 105 will drive the push plate 106 to slide along the inner wall of the first circular groove 5. After the push plate 106 contacts the outer wall of the locking plate 104, it will push the locking plate 104 to slide along the inner wall of the guide groove 8, thereby driving the connecting post 102 to move. When the connecting post 102 moves, the pin 107 will disengage from the inner wall of the slot 7. At this time, the displacement of the connecting post 102 will drive the slide plate 103 to slide along the inner wall of the slide groove 9. At the same time, the displaced connecting post 102 will also drive the spring 101 to compress, so that the pin 107 will disengage from the slot 7, and the connection between the upper cover plate 4 and the lower box 1 will be unlocked. Then, the upper cover plate 4 can be rotated to a 90-degree angle with the lower box 1 by the hinge 3. The upper cover plate 4 can be opened to repair and replace the internal electronic components.

[0038] Secondly, during the process of pressing down the upper cover plate 4 after the replacement and repair are completed, the bottom of the upper cover plate 4 presses against the inclined surface of the top of the pin 107, causing the connecting post 102 to drive the sliding plate 103 to slide along the inner wall of the slide groove 9. This sliding causes the spring 101 to be compressed. When the pin 107 corresponds to the slot 7, the spring 101 rebounds, causing the pin 107 to be inserted into the inner cavity of the slot 7, thereby completing the snap-fit ​​fixing of the upper cover plate 4 and the lower box 1.

[0039] When the electronic components inside the housing 1 experience abnormally high temperatures, the high temperature is conducted through the ceramic pillar 118 to the ends of the two spiral nickel-titanium alloy wires 117, causing the nickel-titanium alloy wires 117 to deform at high temperatures and contract at the ends. This causes the ceramic pillar 118 to slide along the inner wall of the slide groove 116. As the ceramic pillar 118 slides, the striker 119 moves closer to the bottom of the electrode plate 115. When the striker 119 contacts the bottom of the electrode plate 115, the electrode plate 115 is triggered, activating the alarm light 113 and the buzzer 114. The alarm light 113 flashes red, and the buzzer 114 continuously sounds an alarm, alerting staff that the equipment is malfunctioning. After the electronic components return to normal temperature, the two spiral nickel-titanium alloy wires 117 reset under the counterweight of the ceramic pillar 118, causing the striker 119 to reset with the ceramic pillar 118 and disengage from the electrode plate 115. This cuts off the activation signal of the alarm light 113 and the buzzer 114, preparing for the next warning.

[0040] 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.
