Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of switching power supply protection technology, and in particular to a vertical switching power supply with a protective shell. Background Technology
[0002] A vertical switching power supply is a power supply device that converts alternating current (AC) into stable direct current (DC). It has multiple functions, transforming AC mains power into DC power of different voltage levels to meet the power supply needs of various electronic devices. Whether it's common 5V, 12V, or other special voltage requirements, it can output accurately. It also features overvoltage protection; when the output voltage exceeds the set value, it automatically cuts off the power or adjusts the voltage to prevent damage to the equipment due to overvoltage. Furthermore, it has overcurrent protection; when the load current is too high, it can limit the current or stop operation to prevent equipment burnout due to overload. In addition, vertical switching power supplies typically have high conversion efficiency, effectively reducing energy loss, and good electromagnetic compatibility, reducing electromagnetic interference to other devices and resisting external electromagnetic interference to ensure stable operation.
[0003] However, during the implementation of the above technical solution, at least the following technical problems were discovered:
[0004] The vertical switching power supply has a power input plug at the top. When the vertical switching power supply is not in use, foreign objects such as dust, hair, and moisture may adhere to the plug. Excessive dust accumulation may also affect normal conductivity, cause circuit failure, and reduce the service life of the vertical switching power supply. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a vertical switching power supply with a protective casing. This solves the problem that when a vertical switching power supply has a power input plug at the top, foreign objects such as dust, hair, and moisture may adhere to the plug. Excessive dust accumulation may also affect normal conductivity, causing circuit failures and reducing the service life of the vertical switching power supply.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A vertical switching power supply with a protective shell includes a main body, a protective mechanism at the upper end of the main body, the protective mechanism including a protective shell, connecting short columns fixedly connected to both ends of the main body, rotating plates at both ends of the main body, each rotating plate being rotatably connected to a corresponding connecting short column, a fixed plate at the opposite end of each rotating plate, connecting plates fixedly connected to both ends of the protective shell, the two connecting plates corresponding to the two fixed plates, elongated slots at the side ends of each rotating plate, connecting blocks slidably connected inside each elongated slot, the opposite ends of each connecting block being fixedly connected to a corresponding connecting plate, and the opposite ends of each connecting block being fixedly connected to a corresponding fixed plate.
[0008] Preferably, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the lower end of each of the two fixing plates, and a spring is fixedly connected to the lower end of each of the two fixing plates, with the two connecting rods located inside the two springs.
[0009] Preferably, each of the two rotating plates has a fixed plate two at one end that is opposite to the other. The two fixed plates two are located at the lower end of the two fixed plates one. The lower end of each of the two fixed plates two is provided with an L-shaped plate. The two connecting rods pass through the fixed plates two and are fixedly connected to the corresponding L-shaped plates.
[0010] Preferably, the lower ends of the two L-shaped plates are fitted with connecting rods, and the opposite ends of the two connecting rods are fixedly connected to limit plates.
[0011] Preferably, a movable plate is fixedly connected to one end of each of the two connecting short rods, and a locking block is fixedly connected to one end of each of the two movable plates.

[0014] Preferably, each of the two rotating plates has a slot at one end facing away from the other, and the slot is matched with the size of the card block.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. Two rotating plates are rotatably connected to two connecting short columns. When using the vertical switching power supply, the protective casing hangs down at one end of the device body via the rotating plates. When the vertical switching power supply is not in use, the operator moves the protective casing to the top of the device body and presses it down. The protective casing then descends to the top surface of the device body, covering the power input plug and protecting it. Dust, hair, moisture, and other foreign objects are isolated by the protective casing, preventing excessive dust accumulation from affecting normal conductivity and causing circuit failures. This ensures that the service life of the vertical switching power supply is not affected.
[0017] Second, when the two springs push the corresponding moving plate and the locking block to move, the connecting short rod and the limiting plate will also move with the locking block. When the locking block enters the slot, the limiting plate will block the corresponding L-shaped plate. At this time, the moving plate and the locking block cannot continue to move, avoiding the problem of the locking block falling off due to excessive movement, making the locking block more stable when it engages with the rotating plate.

Detailed Implementation
[0024] This application provides a vertical switching power supply with a protective casing, which effectively solves the problem that when a vertical switching power supply has a power input plug at the top, foreign objects such as dust, hair, and moisture may adhere to the plug. Excessive dust accumulation may also affect normal conductivity, causing circuit failure and reducing the service life of the vertical switching power supply.
[0025] Example
[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the technical solution in this application embodiment effectively solves the technical problem that when a vertical switching power supply has a power input plug at the top, dust, hair, moisture, and other foreign objects may adhere to the plug. Excessive dust accumulation may also affect normal conductivity, causing circuit failure and reducing the service life of the vertical switching power supply. The overall idea is as follows:
[0027] To address the problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a vertical switching power supply with a protective shell, including a main body 11. A protective mechanism is provided at the upper end of the main body 11, and the protective mechanism includes a protective shell 12. Connecting short posts 14 are fixedly connected to both ends of the main body 11, and rotating plates 13 are provided at both ends of the main body 11. Both rotating plates 13 are rotatably connected to the corresponding connecting short posts 14. When the vertical switching power supply is in use, the protective shell 12 hangs down at one end of the main body 11 via the rotating plates 13. When the vertical switching power supply is not in use, the operator moves the protective shell 12 to the upper end of the main body 11. At this time, pressing the protective shell 12 causes the connecting plate 15 to descend. Each of the two rotating plates 13 has a fixed plate 16 at one of its opposite ends. Both ends of the protective shell 12 are fixedly connected to the connecting plate 15. The positions of the two connecting plates 15 and the two fixed plates 16 correspond. Each of the two rotating plates 13 has a long groove 21 at its side end. Each of the two long grooves 21 has a connecting block 20 slidably connected inside. The opposite ends of the two connecting blocks 20 are fixedly connected to the corresponding connecting plate 15. The opposite ends of the two connecting blocks 20 are fixedly connected to the corresponding fixed plate 16. The connecting plate 15 will cause the connecting block 20 and the fixed plate 16 to descend.
[0028] Both fixed plates 16 are fixedly connected to the lower ends of the two fixed plates 16 and to the lower ends of the two fixed plates 16. The two connecting rods 17 are located inside the two springs 18. The opposite ends of the two rotating plates 13 are fixedly connected to the two fixed plates 19. The two fixed plates 19 are located at the lower ends of the two fixed plates 16. The lower ends of the two fixed plates 19 are provided with L-shaped plates 24. The two connecting rods 17 pass through the fixed plates 19 and are fixedly connected to the corresponding L-shaped plates 24. The two fixed plates 16 will drive the corresponding connecting rods 17 and L-shaped plates 24 to descend.
[0029] Two L-shaped plates 24 are fitted with connecting rods 28 at their lower ends. Each of the opposite ends of the connecting rods 28 is fixedly connected to a limiting plate 23. Each of the opposite ends of the connecting rods 28 is fixedly connected to a movable plate 26. Each of the opposite ends of the movable plates 26 is fixedly connected to a locking block 27. The locking blocks 27 abut against the corresponding rotating plate 13. Two springs 25 are in a compressed state. When the two L-shaped plates 24 descend, they drive the corresponding movable plate 26 and locking blocks 27 to move. When the two locking blocks 27 descend to the positions corresponding to the two locking slots 22... Two springs 25 will push the corresponding moving plate 26 and the locking block 27 to move. At this time, the two locking blocks 27 will engage with the two rotating plates 13 through the two locking slots 22. The protective shell 12 will then descend to the upper surface of the main body 11 of the device and cover the power input plug to achieve the purpose of protecting the power input plug. At this time, foreign objects such as dust, hair, and moisture will be isolated by the protective shell 12, avoiding the problem that excessive dust accumulation may affect normal conductivity and cause circuit failure, so that the service life of the vertical switching power supply is not affected.
[0030] Two movable plates 26 are fixedly connected to opposite ends of each other by spring 25. The opposite ends of the two spring 25 are fixedly connected to the corresponding L-shaped plates 24. Two connecting rods 28 are located inside the two spring 25. Two rotating plates 13 are provided with slots 22 at opposite ends. The slots 22 are matched with the size of the locking block 27. When the two spring 25 push the corresponding movable plates 26 and locking blocks 27 to move, the connecting rods 28 and the limiting plate 23 will also move with the locking block 27. When the locking block 27 enters the slot 22, the limiting plate 23 will abut against the corresponding L-shaped plate 24. At this time, the movable plates 26 and locking blocks 27 cannot move further, avoiding the problem of locking blocks 27 falling off due to excessive movement, making the locking block 27 more stable when it is engaged with the rotating plates 13.
[0031] Working principle:
[0032] In the first step, the two rotating plates 13 are rotatably connected to the two connecting short columns 14. When using the vertical switching power supply, the protective shell 12 hangs down at one end of the device body 11 via the rotating plates 13. When the vertical switching power supply is not in use, the operator moves the protective shell 12 to the upper end of the device body 11. At this time, pressing the protective shell 12 causes the connecting plate 15 to descend. The connecting plate 15 then causes the connecting block 20 and the fixing plate 16 to descend. The two fixing plates 16 then cause the corresponding connecting rods 17 and L-shaped plates 24 to descend. The two locking blocks 27 abut against the corresponding rotating plates 13, and the two springs 25 are in a compressed state. When the two L-shaped plates 24 descend, they will... The corresponding moving plate 26 and the locking block 27 are moved. When the two locking blocks 27 descend to the positions corresponding to the two locking slots 22, the two springs 25 will push the corresponding moving plate 26 and the locking block 27 to move. At this time, the two locking blocks 27 will be engaged with the two rotating plates 13 through the two locking slots 22. At this time, the protective shell 12 will descend to the upper surface of the device body 11 and cover the power input plug to achieve the purpose of protecting the power input plug. At this time, foreign objects such as dust, hair, and moisture will be isolated by the protective shell 12, avoiding the problem that excessive dust accumulation may affect normal conductivity and cause circuit failure, so that the service life of the vertical switching power supply is not affected.
[0033] In the second step, when the two springs 25 push the corresponding moving plate 26 and the locking block 27 to move, the connecting rod 28 and the limiting plate 23 will also move along with the locking block 27. When the locking block 27 enters the slot 22, the limiting plate 23 will abut against the corresponding L-shaped plate 24. At this time, the moving plate 26 and the locking block 27 cannot continue to move, thus avoiding the problem of the locking block 27 falling off due to excessive movement, making the locking block 27 more stable when it engages with the rotating plate 13.
[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
