Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a network patch cord, specifically a lockable network patch cord. Background Technology

[0002] In today's digital age, the stability and security of network communication are paramount, especially in the financial sector, such as banking, where information security requirements are extremely high. Currently, traditional network patch cords widely used in the market typically employ a spring-loaded RJ45 connector design. Under normal usage scenarios, this design allows the spring to snap into the corresponding slot of the device interface, achieving a stable connection between the network patch cord and the device; when it's necessary to remove the RJ45 connector, simply pressing the spring allows it to be easily removed from the device interface.

[0003] However, this traditional design has significant security flaws. The simple method of removing the RJ45 connector by pressing the spring clip is too simplistic and poses a considerable security risk in highly sensitive environments such as those in the financial sector. Therefore, developing a network patch cord that prevents the RJ45 connector from detaching from the network port under normal use, effectively ensuring communication security, has become a pressing technical problem in the field of network communication equipment. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a locking network patch cord.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is: a network patch cord with a lock, including a housing and a crystal head. The top of the housing has a spring piece that extends forward to a position above the front end of the crystal head. The housing is slidably connected to a locking block for supporting the spring piece upward. The locking block is detachably connected to the housing and is connected to a key for unlocking the locking block.

[0006] Furthermore, the rear end of the spring is a support located on the top of the outer shell. The support has a through-groove, and the locking block passes through the through-groove and slides in cooperation with the through-groove.

[0007] Furthermore, as the locking block moves forward, it rests against the bottom of the spring and supports it.

[0008] Furthermore, the middle of the locking block has a spring bar on both the left and right sides, and the outer sides of the two spring bars are in close contact with the inner wall of the movable groove.

[0009] Furthermore, the rear end of the lock block has a plug-in block with a through-hole, and the bottom of the plug-in block has a through-hole. The outer wall of the front end of the key has an arc-shaped locking block protruding. After the front end of the key is inserted into the through-hole, the locking block locks into the locking hole.

[0010] Furthermore, the lock block has a connecting rod in the middle, which is located between the two spring bars, and there is a gap between the connecting rod and the two spring bars. The two spring bars are Y-shaped, and the outer front end of the spring bar has a first fork, which is in close contact with the inner wall of the movable groove. The inner front end of the spring bar has a second fork, and a triangular groove is formed between the first fork and the second fork. The front end of the key has two triangular forks distributed on the left and right. After the triangular forks pass through the insertion hole, the two triangular forks contact the inner wall of one of the second forks respectively and push the second forks inward.

[0011] The advantages of using the locking network patch cord provided by this utility model are as follows: when the RJ45 connector is connected to the device interface, simply push the locking block forward to support the spring clip set on the outer shell, so that the spring clip can be locked in the device interface. When the RJ45 connector needs to be removed, a key is required. Inserting the key into the locking block will move the locking block backward. After the locking block moves away from the spring clip, the spring clip will collapse, thus allowing the RJ45 connector to be removed from the device interface. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To provide a more intuitive and complete understanding of the technical solution of this utility model, the following non-limiting features are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0018] like Figure 1 — Figure 4As shown, the locked network jumper includes a housing 1 and a crystal head 2. The top of the housing 1 has a spring 11, which extends forward to a position above the front end of the crystal head 2. The housing 1 is slidably connected to a locking block 3 for supporting the spring 11 upward. The locking block 3 is detachably connected to the housing 1 and is connected to a key 4 for unlocking the locking block 3.

[0019] like Figure 3 As shown, the rear end of the spring piece 11 is a support 111 located on the top of the outer shell 1. The support 111 has a movable groove 1111 that runs through the front and back. The locking block 3 passes through the movable groove 1111 and slides in cooperation with the movable groove 1111.

[0020] When the locking block 3 moves forward, the locking block 3 rests against the bottom of the spring piece 11 and supports the spring piece 11.

[0021] like Figure 4 As shown, the locking block 3 has a spring strip 31 on both the left and right sides of the middle part. The outer sides of the two spring strips 31 are in close contact with the inner wall of the movable groove 1111, making the locking block 3 difficult to fall off.

[0022] like Figure 4 As shown, the rear end of the lock block 3 has a plug-in block 32, which has a through-hole 321. The bottom of the plug-in block 32 has a through-hole 322. The outer wall of the front end of the key 4 has an arc-shaped locking block 41 protruding from it. After the front end of the key 4 is inserted into the through-hole 321, the locking block 41 engages with the locking hole 322. When the key 4 is pulled backward, the key 4 can pull the lock block 3 backward. Since the top and bottom of the front end of the key 4 both have two protruding locking blocks 41, the key can be inserted in either direction.

[0023] like Figure 4 As shown, the lock block 3 has a connecting rod 33 in the middle, which is located between two spring bars 31. There is a gap between the connecting rod 33 and the two spring bars 31. Both spring bars 31 are Y-shaped. The outer front end of each spring bar 31 has a first fork 311, which is in close contact with the inner wall of the movable groove 1111. The inner front end of each spring bar 31 has a second fork 312. A triangular groove 313 is formed between the first fork 311 and the second fork 312. The front end of the key 4 has two triangular forks 42 distributed to the left and right. After the triangular forks 42 pass through the insertion hole 321, each of the two triangular forks 42 contacts the inner wall of one of the second forks 312 and pushes the second fork 312 inward. After the triangular forks 42 of the key 4 push the second fork 312 inward, the entire spring bar 31 also moves inward, causing the first fork 311 to separate from the inner wall of the movable groove 1111, facilitating the backward movement of the lock block 3.

[0024] The network patch cord with locking provided by this utility model allows the locking block 3 to be pushed forward when the RJ2 connector is connected to the device interface. This supports the spring 11 on the outer shell 1, allowing the spring 11 to be locked in the device interface. When the RJ2 connector needs to be removed, the key 4 is required. Inserting the key 4 into the locking block 3 moves the locking block 3 backward. After the locking block 3 moves away from the spring 11, the spring 11 will collapse, allowing the RJ2 connector to be removed from the device interface.

[0025] Of course, the above are only preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any simple modifications and equivalent structural changes made based on the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings should also be included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
