Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power strip technology, and in particular to a protective cover for a power strip used in computer rooms. Background Technology

[0002] Power strips for computer rooms are used to centrally power servers, switches and other equipment. They integrate multiple interfaces to adapt to different devices, and have safety functions such as lightning protection and overload protection. They can also standardize cable routing to reduce clutter and ensure stable power supply and safe operation of equipment in the computer room.

[0003] Traditional protective covers are often fixed with screws. This method requires maintenance personnel to first disassemble the power strip itself, then drill holes in the power strip casing according to the mounting holes of the protective cover, and then use screws to fasten the protective cover to the power strip. This process is not only time-consuming and laborious, but may also damage the original structure of the power strip due to insufficient drilling precision, resulting in a decrease in the strength of the power strip casing, and may even damage the internal circuitry. In response to the technical problem of inconvenient disassembly and assembly of protective covers, this application proposes a protective cover for power strips used in computer rooms.

[0017] 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.

[0018] Reference Figures 1-3 As shown, one embodiment of this utility model provides a protective cover for a power strip in a computer room, including a base 1. A pull rod 5 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the base 1. A connecting frame 3 is fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom end of the protective cover body 2. A slot 4 is provided on both sides of the inner wall of the connecting frame 3. A locking rod 7 is provided on the inner wall of each slot 4. The shape of the locking rod 7 fits the slot 4. The outer wall of the locking rod 7 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the base 1. The right end of the right locking rod 7 is fixedly connected to the left end of the pull rod 5. A rotating frame 9 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the base 1. A slider 8 is slidably connected to both ends of the rotating frame 9. The outer wall of the slider 8 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the locking rod 7. A spring 6 is fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the pull rod 5. The other end of the spring 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the base 1 for disassembly and assembly between the base 1 and the protective cover body 2.

[0019] Specifically, when it is necessary to remove the power strip, simply pull the lever 5 outward to remove the latches 7 on both sides from the slots 4, releasing the restriction on the connecting frame 3. Then, the protective cover body 2 can be lifted upward to remove the power strip, completing the disassembly. The protective cover body 2 and the flip cover 10 are made of transparent flame-retardant PC material, which can be fireproof, flame-retardant, and dustproof while making it easy to observe the power socket. By placing the power strip on the base 1 and installing the protective cover body 2 to the base 1, tool-free quick installation and removal can be achieved. It is compatible with multiple specifications of power strips, improves installation stability, prevents cabinet vibration and loosening, facilitates quick disassembly and repair in case of power strip failure, reduces downtime, and avoids drilling holes in the power strip, thus avoiding damage to the power strip.

[0020] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, multiple flip covers 10 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the protective cover body 2. A through hole 17 is opened at the left end of the protective cover body 2. A limiting groove 11 is opened on the right side of the inner wall of each flip cover 10. A limiting rod 12 is provided on the inner wall of each limiting groove 11. The shape of the limiting rod 12 fits the limiting groove 11. The outer wall of the limiting rod 12 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective cover body 2. A spring 13 is fixedly connected to the right end of each limiting rod 12. The other end of the spring 13 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective cover body 2 for limiting the flip cover 10. A sliding frame 15 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective cover body 2. A push plate 16 is fixedly connected to the front end of the sliding frame 15. A threaded rod 14 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sliding frame 15. The outer wall of the threaded rod 14 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the protective cover body 2 for positioning different sizes of power strips.

[0021] Specifically, when the power strip is not in use, the flip cover 10 is rotated downwards, and the limiting rod 12 is inserted into the limiting groove 11 by the spring 13 to limit the flip cover 10. The push plate 16 is made of rubber to avoid damage to the power strip when limiting it. By setting a movable push plate 16 on the rear side, the power strip is pushed and positioned, which can adapt to different specifications of power strips. The elastic pressure enhances the fixation and prevents the power strip from shifting due to cabinet vibration. It is compatible with multiple specifications of power strips and improves installation and maintenance efficiency.

[0022] Working principle: When installing the protective cover body 2 onto the power strip, first place the power strip on the base 1, pull the lever 5, the lever 5 drives the right-side locking lever 7 to slide to the right, and drives the slider 8 to slide on the inner wall of the locking lever 7. Simultaneously, the rotating frame 9 drives the left-side slider 8 and locking lever 7 to slide, retracting the locking levers 7 on both sides into the base 1. Align the through hole 17 of the protective cover body 2 with the direction of the power strip's wires, insert the lower connecting frame 3 into the base 1, insert the wires into the through hole 17, and after installation, release the lever 5. Insert the spring 6 into the slots 4 on both sides to limit the connection frame 3 and the protective cover body 2. Then install the power strip into the protective cover body 2 and rotate the threaded rod 14 on the rear side. The threaded rod 14 drives the sliding frame 15 and the push plate 16 to move forward. The push plate 16 moves the power strip forward and clamps and limits the power strip on the front side of the inner wall of the protective cover body 2 to prevent the power strip from colliding with the protective cover body 2. When the power strip needs to be used, rotate the flip cover 10 upward to expose the power strip and use it.

[0023] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
