Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of routing equipment technology, specifically to a router and router components with an interface protection structure. Background Technology
[0002] Routers operate at the network layer and are used for cross-network segment communication. Routers have the function of determining network addresses and selecting IP paths. They can establish flexible connections in multi-network interconnection environments and can connect various subnets using completely different data packets and media access methods. Routers only accept information from the source station or other routers. As a network layer interconnection device, routers are one of the essential network devices in the Internet. However, with the increasing demand for use, existing router devices still have certain shortcomings in their use.
[0003] For example, patent document CN220963883U discloses an interface structure and router components for a router, "including a line interface on the front of the router body, mounting grooves on the top and bottom surfaces of the router body, and a mounting frame on the front of the router body. A U-shaped spring bracket is slidably connected to the top and bottom surfaces of the mounting frame, and the end of the U-shaped spring bracket away from the mounting frame engages with the surface of the mounting groove. A T-shaped groove is provided on the top surface inside the mounting frame, and a T-shaped slide block is slidably provided inside the T-shaped groove. A dustproof baffle is hinged to the bottom surface of the T-shaped slide block. In this application, the entire mounting frame is directly detached from the surface of the router body, allowing engagement with any line interface position on the router body, thus protecting the surface of the line interface. The structure is simple and highly adaptable."
[0004] However, while the connection between the mounting frame and the router body facilitates the disassembly of the network cable structure, the contact area between the network cable connector structure and the interface structure is limited when they are plugged in. As a result, the use of the network cable connector is still affected by up-and-down shaking. External force can cause the connector at the network cable interface to loosen easily, and there is a lack of protection for the connector structure.
[0005] For example, CN216122736U discloses a router that "includes a base, with a support groove in the upper center of the base, a shielding device fixedly connected to the upper end of the base, a dustproof device magnetically connected to the upper end of the shielding device, a router body fixedly connected to the upper center of the base, several connection ports provided at the front end of the router body, a display screen fixedly connected to the upper center of the router body, signal boosting rods fixedly connected to the left and right rear ends of the router body, and an installation device fixedly connected to the rear end of the base. This router, by incorporating a dustproof device and an installation device throughout the device, effectively blocks dust, facilitates disassembly and installation, exhibits strong operational stability, has a simple structure, and improves the practicality of the device."
[0006] However, when the above-mentioned device is in use, after the network cable structure is plugged in and installed, the swing of the network cable directly affects the stability of the network cable structure connection due to the setting of the network cable. This affects the looseness of the network cable structure, and the randomness of the number of network cable plugs makes the crossover between the lines have a greater impact. As a result, the limiting effect of the network cable plugs is insufficient, which makes the linkage between the various connectors of the router device have a greater impact when the router device is in use, affecting the stable use of the router device. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a router and router components with an interface protection structure to solve the problem of insufficient protection of network cable interfaces mentioned in the background art.

Positioning plates are fixedly installed on the opposing surfaces of the two sets of inner support plates. A limit thread rod is threaded through the top of the positioning plate. A limit handle is fixedly installed on the top of the limit thread rod. An abutment block is fixedly installed on the bottom of the limit thread rod. An abutment frame is fixedly installed on the top of the two sets of positioning plates. A cover is movably mounted on the top of the inner wall of the housing. A network cable connector is inserted into the inside of the locking groove.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the locking plate is fixedly installed with a snap-fit frame on both the front and back sides, and the two sets of snap-fit frames are snapped with limit blocks inside. A limit plate is fixedly installed on one side of each of the two sets of limit blocks. A wire harness plate is symmetrically installed on the top and bottom of one side of each of the two sets of limit plates. The inner wall of the wire harness plate has wire harness grooves that are evenly distributed.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a retainer is sleeved on the outer surface of the connector seat, and the retainer is attached to one side of the inner support plate.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, a limiting shaft is fixedly installed on the other side of the inner wall of the locking groove. A limiting clamp is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the limiting shaft. An internal telescopic plate is fitted into one side of the inner wall of the locking groove. The internal telescopic plate is divided into an upper plate and a lower plate. The upper plate is slidably connected to the inside of the lower plate. A limiting spring is provided on the inner bottom wall of the internal telescopic plate. An elastic rubber block is provided at the front end of the internal telescopic plate. The front end of the elastic rubber block is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the limiting clamp.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a connecting spring is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the probe plate, and the front end of the connecting spring is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the clamping plate. An inclined elastic lever is fixedly installed at the tail end of the clamping plate.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a guide slider is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the locking plate, and the guide slider is slidably connected to the outer surface of the locking frame. Pulling blocks are fixedly installed at the front and rear ends of one side of the locking frame.
[0014] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the top of the contact bracket is provided with an arc-shaped slot, and the bottom of the cover is engaged with the inside of the arc-shaped slot. The bottom of the contact block is movably connected to the top of the router circuit board assembly, and the contact block is close to the side of the connector seat.
[0015] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the probe plate is slidably attached to the inner wall of the enlarged network cable interface.
[0016] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the pulling block extends through the opposing surfaces of the two sets of wire harness plates.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model, through the setting of a locking frame and an inner support plate, after the network cable connector 35 is plugged in and installed, the clamping structure inside the locking frame, together with the contact limit of the abutment block, provides a frame-like reinforcement and protection for the network cable connection structure from the inside to the outside of the chassis. The clamping structure can stabilize the connector structure, and the limiting sliding can prevent the connector structure from being affected by up-and-down shaking. The limitation of the range of motion of the network cable connector ensures that the network cable connector at the connection point remains stable in the event of a collision or shaking of the router, reducing the impact of external force collisions on the loosening of its interface. The setting of the locking frame can expand the external protective structure of the network cable connector, playing a role in limiting the range, expanding the limiting range of the connector structure during plugging, and limiting the shaking of the connector can also protect the network cable interface.
[0018] This utility model, through the arrangement of cable trays and cable trays, allows the cable trays 23 to not only limit the passage of network cables but also to rationally distribute the network cables in different directions due to their equidistant distribution. This rational distribution also limits the range of motion of the cables, increasing the tightness of the connection with the router under the constraint of the external structure, thus hindering their swing. Consequently, the network cable structure near the connectors is less affected by shaking, reducing the impact of cable structure vibration. Simultaneously, the rational cable distribution structure reduces the pulling effect caused by cable tangling, decreasing the correlation between connectors and mitigating the impact of cable vibration, thus providing protection for the cables.
[0019] This utility model, through the setting of an inner support plate and a retainer, allows the inner wall of the casing 1 to abut against the interior of the casing through the snap-fit of the inner support plate 12, thereby providing support for the internal space. The top of the retainer 17 can also support the cover 18. With the wrapping of the retainer 24, it can maintain and protect the installation space of the internal components of the router, thereby making reasonable use of the spare space inside the router, reducing the waste of spare space, and improving the practicality of the device.

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.
[0023] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 A router and router components with interface protection structure: The system includes: a chassis 1, a router circuit board assembly 2 fixedly mounted on the inner bottom wall of the chassis 1, a connector 3 fitted into one side of the chassis 1, multiple sets of expanded network cable interfaces on the inner wall of the connector 3, a locking plate 4 movably mounted on the outer surface of the connector 3, a locking frame 5 slidably connected to the inner wall of the locking plate 4, multiple sets of locking grooves 6 starting from the inner wall of the locking frame 5, two sets of symmetrically distributed locking blocks 7 fixedly mounted on one side of the inner wall of the locking grooves 6, and a probe plate 8 fixedly mounted on one side of each set of locking blocks 7, the probe plate 8 slidably fitting against the expanded network cable. On the inner wall of the interface, clamping plates 9 are slidably arranged on the opposing surfaces of the two sets of probe plates 8. Connecting springs 30 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the probe plates 8, with the front end of the connecting springs 30 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the clamping plates 9. Inclined elastic levers 31 are fixedly installed at the tail end of the clamping plates 9. Arc-shaped elastic copper sheets 10 are fixedly installed on the separating surfaces of the two sets of clamping plates 9. A limiting shaft 25 is fixedly installed on the other side of the inner wall of the locking groove 6. A limiting clamping plate 26 is rotatably connected to the outer surface of the limiting shaft 25. An internal telescopic plate 27 is fitted into one side of the inner wall of the locking groove 6. The built-in telescopic plate 27 is divided into an upper plate and a lower plate. The upper plate is slidably connected to the interior of the lower plate. A limit spring 28 is provided on the inner bottom wall of the built-in telescopic plate 27. An elastic rubber block 29 is provided at the front end of the built-in telescopic plate 27, and the front end of the elastic rubber block 29 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the limit clamping plate 26. Symmetrically distributed overlapping plates 11 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the housing 1. Two sets of inner support plates 12 are snapped onto the top of the overlapping plates 11. Positioning plates 13 are fixedly installed on the facing surfaces of the two sets of inner support plates 12. A limit thread rod 14 is threaded through the top of the positioning plate 13. A limiting handle 15 is fixedly installed on the top of the limiting threaded rod 14, and an abutment block 16 is fixedly installed on the bottom of the limiting threaded rod 14. An abutment frame 17 is fixedly installed on the top of both sets of positioning plates 13. A cover 18 is movably installed on the top of the inner wall of the housing 1. A network cable connector 35 is inserted into the inside of the locking groove 6. A guide slider 32 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the locking plate 4, and the guide slider 32 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the locking frame 5. Pulling blocks 33 are fixedly installed on the front and rear ends of one side of the locking frame 5. The pulling blocks 33 penetrate the opposing surfaces of the two sets of cable trays 22. The router circuit board assembly 2 is installed inside the casing 1, along with the cover 18 and connector 3, to form a basic router structure. The connector 3 is a component of the router's interface structure, used for connecting external network cables. Before installing the network cable, the locking plate 4 can be installed at the network cable interface on the connector 3, so that the locking frame 5 corresponds to the network cable interface on the connector 3. Then, when the external network cable connector 35 is plugged in, the contact points between the connector 35 and the network cable interface are at the top and front end of the connector 35. This allows the connector 35 to be pre-inserted into the locking slot 6, allowing it to slide through and connect to the two sets of probes. The insertion plate 8 presses against the clamping plate 9. With the assistance of the arc-shaped elastic copper sheet 10, it clamps and positions the network cable connector. During clamping, the clamping plate 9's gripping ability is enhanced by the rebound of the connecting spring 30. The entrance to the locking groove 6 is limited by the rotation of the limiting clamping plate 26 via the limiting shaft 25. Combined with the limited extension and retraction of the built-in telescopic plate 27 under the rebound of the limiting spring 28, the elastic rubber block 29 connects to the limiting clamping plate 26, clamping the connector surface near the network cable when the network cable connector 35 is inserted. This aids in the stability of the clamping when the network cable connector 35 is inserted, ensuring stability at the front and top of the network cable connector 35, thus enabling locking. The locking frame 5 is pushed so that its front end protrudes into the enlarged network cable interface 8, allowing the top and front end of the network cable connector 35 to be inserted into the network cable interface. The sliding of the locking frame 5 limits the insertion of the external network cable, restricting the insertion position and range of motion of the network cable connector 35 during insertion, ensuring that it is inserted and installed within the positioning space. After insertion and installation, the network cable connector 35, limited by the locking frame 5, ensures that the connector is in contact with the inside of the network cable interface and is not prone to shaking. Furthermore, the inside of the chassis 1 can be installed by the inner support plate 12 snapping onto the overlapping plate 11, thereby supporting it on the inner wall of the chassis 1, and the position of the limiting threaded rod 14 is also controlled. The adjustment is achieved by rotating the limiting handle 15, thereby adjusting the position of the abutment block 16 so that it contacts the router circuit board assembly 2 near the connector 3. This ensures the stability of the connection between the network cable interface structure and the internal structure of the chassis 1 after the internal structure is installed. Furthermore, after the network cable connector 35 is plugged in, it provides a frame-like reinforcement and protection for the network cable connection structure from the inside out. This ensures the stability of the installation position of the network cable connector 35 during router use. In the event of collisions or shaking, the network cable connector 35 at the connection point is limited by the external structure, restricting its vertical movement and increasing the stability of the interface connection. This also reduces the impact of external force collisions on the loosening of the interface.
[0024] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 ; The locking plate 4 has a snap-fit frame 19 fixedly installed on both the front and back sides. The two sets of snap-fit frames 19 are snapped into the inside of the limiting blocks 20. The two sets of limiting blocks 20 are fixedly installed on one side of the limiting plates 21. The two sets of limiting plates 21 are symmetrically installed on the top and bottom of one side of the limiting plates 21. The inner wall of the cable tray 22 has cable tray grooves 23 distributed at equal intervals. The outer surface of the connector 3 is fitted with a retainer 24, and the retainer 24 is attached to one side of the inner support plate 12. The top of the abutment 17 has an arc-shaped slot 34, and the bottom of the cover 18 is snapped into the inside of the arc-shaped slot 34. The bottom of the abutment block 16 is movably connected to the top of the router circuit board assembly 2, and the abutment block 16 is close to the side of the connector 3. The cable management plate 22 can form a surrounding structure corresponding to the locking slot 6. With the opening of the internal cable management slot 23, it can be used for the passage of the network cable at the end after the network cable connector 35 is plugged in. With the equally distributed cable management slot 23, while limiting the passage of the network cable, it also performs reasonable cable separation through the different orientations of its arc structure. After the two sets of cable management plates 22 limit and clamp the network cable, the range of movement of the network cable is restricted and the swing is hindered. In turn, by limiting the movement of the network cable, the impact on the connector structure is reduced, and the pulling effect between interface connection lines caused by the cable tangling is reduced. The orderly arrangement of the lines enhances the protection effect of the lines when the router is in use. The inner wall of the chassis 1 is supported by the snap-fit of the inner support plate 12 and the top abutment bracket 17 supports the cover 18. With the wrapping of the retainer 24, it can maintain and protect the installation space of the internal component structure of the router.
[0025] The working principle is as follows: through the installation connection between the locking plate 4 and the chassis 1, several clamps on the front and rear of the locking plate 4 can clamp the network cable connector 35. With the assistance of the sliding action of the locking frame 5, the insertion operation of the network cable connector 35 is spatially limited. In conjunction with the positioning structure inside the chassis 1, the network cable connector 35 and the network cable interface have stable positioning. The connection at the interface is reduced from the impact of its up-and-down shaking. With the cable routing channel 23 on the cable tray 22, the orderly connection of the line can be ensured. When the router is in use, the shaking of the router can reduce the impact on the connection at the interface, which helps to stabilize the installation and connection of the line when the router is placed and used, and protects the interface structure.
[0026] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
