[0007] Furthermore, a pull rod is fixedly connected to the surface of the card block, and a pull groove is provided on the side of the mounting plate. By setting the pull rod, the card block can be moved, reducing the situation where the card block is difficult to move in a limited position during use.
[0008] Furthermore, the pull rod is slidably connected inside the pull groove.
[0009] Furthermore, a first spring is fixedly connected to one end of the pull rod, and the end of the first spring away from the pull rod is fixedly connected to the inside of the pull groove. The first spring is provided to facilitate the application of a restoring force to the pull rod.
[0010] Furthermore, an auxiliary component is fixedly installed inside the mounting frame. This auxiliary component includes a connecting block and a groove. The connecting block is fixedly connected inside the mounting frame, and the groove is formed on the surface of the connecting block. Limiting grooves are formed at both ends of the protective cover, and a retaining ball is slidably connected inside the groove. By setting the retaining ball, the protective cover can be limited in position. This reduces the difficulty of limiting the protective cover during equipment use.
[0011] Furthermore, one end of the ball engages with the inside of the limiting groove.
[0012] Furthermore, a second spring is fixedly connected to the end of the ball away from the limiting groove, and the end of the second spring away from the ball is fixedly connected to the inside of the groove.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0014] 1. In this utility model, by setting a protective device, the mounting groove is effectively protected, which reduces the risk of small particles and debris entering the mounting groove during use, causing blockage and making it difficult for the connector to be fully inserted into the mounting groove, thus affecting the normal use of the equipment. This protective device, through the cooperation between components such as the mounting frame, mounting plate, protective cover, and locking block, achieves protection of the mounting groove and improves the protective performance of the equipment.
[0015] 2. In this utility model, by setting an auxiliary component, when the device moves the protective cover, the user moves the protective cover to rotate on the surface of the rotating block. When the protective cover moves, it moves the locking ball. When the locking ball moves, it drives the second spring to displace and deform, generating elastic force. By setting the auxiliary component, the second spring applies pressure to the locking ball, which abuts against the limiting groove on the surface of the protective cover, thus limiting the protective cover and stabilizing it, thereby improving the stability of the device.

[0026] The specific settings and functions of its protection device 6 and auxiliary components 7 will be explained in detail below.
[0027] In this embodiment: the protective device 6 is installed on the surface of the main body 1. The protective device 6 includes a mounting frame 61 and a mounting plate 63. The mounting plate 63 is a metal plate with a rust-proof surface treatment. The mounting frame 61 is a plastic frame with sealing strips on the edges to reduce dust and liquid ingress. Its shape is adapted to the surface of the main body 1, and it fits seamlessly after installation. The mounting plate 63 is fixedly connected to the surface of the main body 1. The mounting frame 61 is installed on the surface of the main body 1. A rotating block 64 is fixedly connected inside the mounting frame 61. A protective cover 62 is rotatably connected to the surface of the rotating block 64. The protective cover 62 is a transparent plastic cover made of polycarbonate material, which has strong impact resistance and can completely cover the mounting groove 5. A limiting plate 65 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the mounting frame 61. The limiting plate 65 is engaged with the surface of the mounting plate 63. A locking block 66 is engaged at the lower end of the limiting plate 65.
[0028] Specifically, a pull rod 67 is fixedly connected to the surface of the card block 66, and a groove 68 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 63.
[0029] In this embodiment, by setting the pull rod 67, the locking block 66 can be moved, reducing the situation where the locking block 66 is difficult to move in a limited position during use.
[0030] Specifically, the pull rod 67 is slidably connected inside the pull groove 68.
[0031] Specifically, a first spring 69 is fixedly connected to one end of the pull rod 67. The end of the first spring 69 away from the pull rod 67 is fixedly connected to the inside of the pull groove 68. The first spring 69 is provided to facilitate the application of a restoring force to the pull rod 67.
[0032] In this embodiment: An auxiliary component 7 is fixedly installed inside the mounting frame 61. The auxiliary component 7 includes a connecting block 71 and a groove 72. The connecting block 71 is fixedly connected inside the mounting frame 61. The groove 72 is opened on the surface of the connecting block 71. Limiting grooves 73 are opened at both ends of the protective cover 62. A retaining ball 74 is slidably connected inside the groove 72.
[0033] In this embodiment, the protective cover 62 can be limited by the locking ball 74. This reduces the difficulty of limiting the protective cover 62 during equipment use.
[0034] Specifically, one end of the ball 74 engages with the inside of the limiting groove 73.
[0035] Specifically, a second spring 75 is fixedly connected to the end of the ball 74 away from the limiting groove 73. The end of the second spring 75 away from the ball 74 is fixedly connected to the inside of the groove 72. The second spring 75 is provided to facilitate the application of a reset force to the ball 74.
[0036] Working principle: When using the device, plug 3 is connected to the computer's socket, expanding a single socket into multiple connection holes. During installation, when the user installs the mounting frame 61 into the mounting groove 5 on the surface of the main body 1, pulling the pull rod 67 causes the first spring 69 to deform and generate elastic force. As the pull rod 67 moves, it causes the locking block 66 to move, limiting the insertion of the limiting plate 65 on the side of the mounting frame 61 into the surface of the mounting plate 63. After releasing the restraint of the pull rod 67, the first spring 69 returns to its original position, causing the locking block 66 to position the limiting plate 65, thus positioning the protective cover 62 and... The surface of the mounting slot 5 is protected by a protective device 6, which effectively protects the mounting slot 5 and reduces the risk of small particles or debris entering the mounting slot 5 during use, causing blockages and making it difficult for connectors to be fully inserted and connected, thus affecting the normal operation of the equipment. This protective device, through the cooperation of components such as the mounting frame 61, mounting plate 63, protective cover 62, and locking block 66, protects the mounting slot 5 and improves the equipment's protective performance.
[0037] When the equipment moves the protective cover 62, the user moves the protective cover 62 to rotate on the surface of the rotating block 64. When the protective cover 62 moves, it moves the locking ball 74. When the locking ball 74 moves, it drives the second spring 75 to displace and deform, generating elastic force. By setting the auxiliary component 7, the second spring 75 applies pressure to the locking ball 74, which abuts against the limiting groove 73 on the surface of the protective cover 62, thus limiting the protective cover 62. This can limit the protective cover 62, stabilize the protective cover 62, and improve the stability of the equipment.
[0038] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely one or more preferred embodiments of this application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this application. Those skilled in the art can understand that all or part of the processes for implementing the above embodiments and equivalent changes made in accordance with the claims of this application still fall within the scope of this application.
