Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of gateway device installation technology, and in particular to a multi-form installation structure for gateway devices. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the base and wall-mounting structure of gateway devices are generally fixed. These gateway devices are designed to only allow placement and have one wall-mounting hole to achieve the purpose of wall mounting or placement, but they are not fixed and generally cannot be directly connected to the junction box.

[0003] During installation, the data cables are pulled through conduits and then through junction boxes to the indoor walls or floor. Some are even pulled onto desks. However, these junction boxes are either embedded in vertical walls or desks or in horizontal floors or desktops. There are only two installation methods: vertical and horizontal.

[0004] Existing gateway devices not only require plugging in data cables, but also need to run out branch data cables, and even more so, a power cord to power the device. This results in multiple incoming and outgoing cables on each gateway device, and the installation method of the gateway device will vary for each different usage environment.

[0005] Because of the uncertainty in the installation of gateway devices, the gateway devices are all connected to the outside of the junction box. The junction box only connects the data cable, and a water head or data connector is installed through a cover plate. The data connector is then inserted into the cover plate of the junction box and then connected to the gateway device. The gateway device can only be hung outside. Sometimes there is not enough space on the wall, or there is no hanging device. A flat plate can only be extended from the wall to place the gateway device, or multiple data cables can be connected and then placed on the table.

[0006] Current gateway device installations suffer from several drawbacks. The installation method is limited to simple placement, lacking flexibility. Additional shelves are required for installation, and the gateway device must be reconnected to the wall panel connector via a data cable, making the installation cumbersome. Furthermore, it is incompatible with both vertical and horizontal installation methods, affecting the overall aesthetic design. Numerous wires near the gateway device frequently become tangled, and the gateway device cannot be fixed in place, resulting in a cluttered environment around it.

[0007] Based on this, the present invention designs a multi-form installation structure for gateway devices to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a multi-form installation structure for gateway devices. A back-mounting hole is added to the back of the gateway device's casing, and a bottom-mounting hole is added to the bottom. This simple and ingenious structure allows the casing to be directly attached to the support. It can be wall-mounted by attaching the back to the support, or installed vertically with the bottom of the casing attached to the support when the front is facing upwards. This makes installation of the gateway device convenient, allowing for easy switching between installation states. It is cost-effective, requires no additional accessories, and does not affect the aesthetics or performance of the device. This reusable structural solution meets the flexible deployment needs of users in different scenarios. Furthermore, the support is directly connected to the wiring, eliminating the need for additional brackets to support the gateway device. Wiring inside the junction box can also pass through the wire control holes and wiring holes, and external wiring is not affected by the support, making wiring easier and simplifying the gateway device's wiring environment.

[0009] This utility model is implemented as follows: a multi-form installation structure for a gateway device, comprising:

[0010] Housing, bracket, and junction box;

[0011] The junction box is a line adapter box;

[0012] The outer casing is the housing of the line access device. The bottom of the outer casing has two bottom clip holes and two positioning holes, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the bottom of the outer casing.

[0013] The outer casing is also provided with two back card holes, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the back of the outer casing.

[0014] The back edge of the outer casing is also provided with a winding groove, which is an inwardly recessed annular groove, and a wire clip is provided at the bottom of the winding groove.

[0015] The support is a frame plate with a flat back. Two insert rods and two positioning rods are protruding on the front of the support. The two insert rods are detachably inserted into the two back clip holes or the two bottom clip holes, and the two positioning rods are detachably and tightly inserted into the two positioning holes.

[0016] The support also has a wire hole that penetrates both sides of the support.

[0017] The support is also provided with a disassembly ramp on the front side, and the disassembly ramp and the wire hole are respectively provided on the front and rear sides of the transverse centerline of the support.

[0018] The back of the support is stably mounted at the opening of the junction box.

[0019] Furthermore, a wiring hole is provided on the back of the housing. When the support is installed at the bottom of the housing, the wiring hole is directly above the wire hole on the back of the housing, and the disassembly ramp is located below the front of the housing.

[0020] When the support is installed on the back of the housing, the wire hole is 1 cm below the wiring hole, and the disassembly ramp is located on the upper half of the housing.

[0021] Furthermore, the spacing between the two bottom card holes, the spacing between the two back card holes, and the spacing between the two insertion rods are all the same.

[0022] Furthermore, both the insertion rod and the positioning rod are long, flat, straight rods. The planes on which the insertion rod and the positioning rod are located are perpendicular to each other, that is, the two insertion rods are arranged parallel to each other in the front-back direction, and the two positioning rods are arranged on the same straight plane in the left-right direction.

[0023] The two positioning rods are positioned between the two insertion rods, and the left-right axes of the positioning rods coincide with those of the insertion rods.

[0024] Furthermore, the dismantling slope is a sloping surface that is lower on the outside and higher on the inside.

[0025] Furthermore, it also includes a hanging plate, the front of which has a hook protruding;

[0026] The back of the outer casing also has two wall-mounting holes, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the casing. The wall-mounting holes can be detachably hung on hooks.

[0027] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This device adds a support that can be stably installed with the junction box, and the outer shell of the gateway device can be stably clamped with the support, so that there is no need for external devices or additional placement brackets on the wall. The outer shell of the gateway device can be directly and stably installed with the junction box on the wall or ground and other line access points through the support. The installation is convenient and no other connecting devices are required, making the area around the gateway connection port more concise.

[0028] 2. After the support and junction box of this device are installed stably, the back of the outer shell can be vertically mounted on the support to form a wall-mounted shape, and the bottom of the outer shell can also be snapped into the front of the support to form an upright placement. The two installation states can be easily switched, so that this device can adapt to different installation methods in different environments, making it flexible and highly adaptable.

[0029] 3. This device also features a disassembly ramp, which allows the outer casing to be pushed towards the disassembly ramp when disassembly is required. This loosens the outer casing from the support, making it easier to separate the back or bottom locking hole from the insertion rod by shaking. This makes disassembly and assembly more convenient, eliminating the need for pulling or tugging, and making it easier to use.

[0030] 4. This device also features wall-mounting holes and hooks, allowing it to be easily hung on the wall using the wall-mounting plate in environments without junction boxes. It offers various installation methods and flexible use. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0043] Please see Figures 1 to 9 As shown, this utility model provides a multi-form installation structure for a gateway device. To better understand the above technical solution, the following will describe the above technical solution in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0044] In a specific embodiment of the technical solution of this utility model:

[0045] Includes housing 1, support 2, and junction box 4;

[0046] Junction box 4 is a line adapter box, specifically an 86-type line adapter box, also known as an 86-type switch box. Junction box 4 is fixedly buried in the wall or ground where the line is laid, or it can be installed under the table for use in pulling and transferring lines. This type of junction box 4 is a common device and is widely used.

[0047] Housing 1 is the housing of the line access device, meaning the gateway device is installed inside housing 1.

[0048] It also includes a hanging plate 3, and a hook 31 protrudes from the front of the hanging plate 3;

[0049] Two wall-mounting holes 16 are also provided on the back of the outer casing 1. The two wall-mounting holes 16 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the outer casing 1. The wall-mounting holes 16 can be detachably hung on the hooks 31. The wall-mounting holes 16 are gourd-shaped bolt holes with a smaller top and a larger bottom. The hooks 31 can be straight rods or curved hooks, as long as they can be stably connected to the wall-mounting holes 16. The mounting plate 3 can be anchored to the wall with screws or it can be an adhesive hook.

[0050] The bottom of the outer casing 1 has two bottom locking holes 12 and two positioning holes 14, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the central axis at the bottom of the outer casing 1.

[0051] The outer casing 1 is also provided with two back card holes 11, which are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the back of the outer casing 1 and on the left and right sides of the vertical central axis of the outer casing 1.

[0052] The back edge of the outer casing 1 is also provided with a winding groove 15. The winding groove 15 is an inwardly recessed annular groove. A wire clip 13 is also provided at the bottom of the winding groove 15. The winding groove 15 is used to wind and pull the excess data cable inside, so as to prevent the data cable from being scattered outside the device and causing the data cable connector 41 to form a twisted insertion angle with the wiring hole 17. The winding groove 15 not only serves to place the data cable, but also serves to guide the insertion direction. Of course, if the data cable is of appropriate length and is aligned with the wiring hole 17 after being pulled in through the wire hole 22, the winding groove 15 is not needed.

[0053] The support 2 is a flat back plate. The front of the support 2 has two insert rods 21 and two positioning rods 23 protruding. The two insert rods 21 are detachably inserted into the two back clip holes 11 or the two bottom clip holes 12. The two positioning rods 23 are detachably and tightly inserted into the two positioning holes 14.

[0054] The spacing between the two bottom card holes 12, the spacing between the two back card holes 11, and the spacing between the two insertion rods 21 are all the same;

[0055] The bottom clip 12 and the back clip 11, together with the insertion rod 21, form a PVC elastic clip, similar to the clips on the casing of remote controls or various electronic products, ensuring a tight fit.

[0056] Both the insertion rod 21 and the positioning rod 23 are long, flat, straight rods. The planes on which the insertion rod 21 and the positioning rod 23 are located are perpendicular to each other. That is, the two insertion rods 21 are set parallel to each other in the front-back direction, and the two positioning rods 23 are set on the same straight plane in the left-right direction. This makes the force directions of the insertion rod 21 and the positioning rod 23 intersect, so that the two have a resultant force and form an intersect force, making the shell 1 more stable when it is installed vertically on the horizontal plane.

[0057] Two positioning rods 23 are positioned between two insertion rods 21, and the left and right axes of the positioning rods 23 and the insertion rods 21 coincide.

[0058] A wire hole 22 is also provided on the support 2. The wire hole 22 penetrates both sides of the support 2. The wire hole 22 is used to guide and pull the connection wire that is inserted into the internal structure of the outer shell 1.

[0059] A disassembly ramp 24 is also provided on the front of the support 2. The disassembly ramp 24 and the wire hole 22 are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the transverse centerline of the support 2.

[0060] The dismantling slope 24 is a sloping surface that is lower on the outside and higher on the inside. The outside of the dismantling slope 24 refers to the side near the edge of the support 2, and the inside refers to the side near the center of the support 2.

[0061] When the support 2 is installed at the bottom of the housing 1, the wire hole 22 and the disassembly ramp 24 are respectively located on the front and rear sides of the housing 1.

[0062] The back of the support 2 is stably installed at the opening of the junction box 4. The edge of the back of the support 2 is an annular groove, which can form an interference fit with the junction box 4. The support 2 can also be locked to the junction box 4 by bolts. The support 2 of this device is equivalent to the wiring panel.

[0063] The outer casing 1 is the housing of the gateway device. This device is suitable for many different devices, but cannot be wires. A wiring hole 17 is also provided on the back of the outer casing 1.

[0064] When the support 2 is installed at the bottom of the housing 1, the wiring hole 17 is directly above the wire hole 22 on the back of the housing 1, and the disassembly ramp 24 is below the front of the housing 1.

[0065] When the support 2 is installed on the back of the housing 1, the wire hole 22 is 1 cm below the wiring hole 17, the disassembly slope 24 is located on the upper part of the housing 1, and the housing 1 must always be installed vertically.

[0066] It should be noted that:

[0067] 1. The wiring hole 17 of this device is the socket for connecting external network cables and extension branch network cables. It also includes power interface and fiber optic data interface. The outer shell 1 of this device is a circuit board that integrates all the gateway standard interfaces and is packaged inside the outer shell 1 of this device. The outer shell 1 of this device does not involve circuits and data connectors. It only considers the stable installation method on the ground, wall or desktop. Therefore, the outer shell 1 of this device only considers the structure and designs the wiring connection.

[0068] 2. Gateway devices are now essential network equipment, especially in shopping malls, offices, and residences. However, different users have different installation needs and methods depending on the environment. While the gateway device itself remains unchanged—or rather, the internal circuit board and the main body that enables network connectivity—the external installation environment varies. Some need to be wall-mounted, some need to be installed on a desktop, and some need to be placed on a TV cabinet or TV. In hotels, gateway devices often lack a separate design and are simply placed on top of motors, which is not only unsightly but also prone to loosening and damage due to data cable suspension. This device connects the outer casing 1 to the bracket 2, which can be directly locked to the wall junction box 4. This completely solves the problem of the gateway device not being able to be installed on the wall. Furthermore, this device can be wall-mounted or directly connected to the junction box 4 on a desk, allowing the gateway device to stand directly on the desktop without the need for other devices.

[0069] 3. If other panels or connectors are required, this device can be directly assembled with junction box 4. The data cable inside junction box 4 no longer needs to be connected to an adapter board. It can be passed through wire hole 22 and directly plugged into wiring hole 17, eliminating the wiring operation of wall-mounted junction panel.

[0070] When using this utility model, if the junction box 4 is embedded in a vertical wall, the support 2 of this device is snapped into the opening of the junction box 4 on the wall and locked with bolts.

[0071] Then align and clamp the back card hole 11 with the insertion rod 21. There are many heat dissipation holes on the back of the outer shell 1. The heat dissipation holes need to be aligned with the positioning rod 23 on the front of the support 2.

[0072] After inserting the two back-mounted holes 11 into the two insert rods 21, the outer casing 1 is installed on the support 2, forming a complete set. Figure 1The wall-mounted state.

[0073] When this device needs to be placed on a desktop, the two bottom locking holes 12 are inserted into the plug rod 21 for stability, and the positioning hole 14 is inserted into the positioning rod 23 to form a positional constraint in another direction, making the device securely mounted. The support 2 can be placed directly on the desktop without the need for the junction box 4. The data cable can be directly extended from under the table along the support 2 to the top of the desktop and plugged into the wiring hole 17. The entire outer shell 1 does not need to be fixed. It only needs to be placed stably on the desktop. The position can also be moved according to actual needs, as long as the data cable length can support it. The usage of this device is equivalent to the use of a movable power strip.

[0074] When disassembly is required, gently swing the outer casing 1 towards the disassembly slope 24 so that the insertion rod 21 forms an inclined angle with the back clip hole 11 or the bottom clip hole 12, thereby creating a gap between the outer casing 1 and the support 2, which facilitates disassembly and separation, making the disassembly and assembly of this device more flexible.

[0075] The back of the housing 1 of this device is also designed with a winding groove 15. There is also a large groove at the bottom of the back of the housing 1. This groove is located below the wiring hole 17. Therefore, the area below the wiring hole 17 on the back of the housing 1 is a hollow groove, which is used to connect the wire harness. This groove on the back is a common design for gateway devices and is essentially a clearance groove.

[0076] The installation of the cable bundle allows excess fiber optic cable bundles to be clipped into the winding groove 15, and external connections are restricted through the cable clip 13. Since fiber optic cable bundles cannot be bent, the winding groove 15 and the cable clip 13 can guide and restrict the cable bundles as needed, preventing fiber breakage and failure.

[0077] In special circumstances where there is no junction box 4 on the wall, the data cable connection is long and the gateway device needs to be installed at a distance from the junction box 4, a mounting plate 3 can be pasted on and the hook 31 can be attached to the wall mounting hole 16. This makes disassembly and installation convenient. This device is flexible in use and applicable to a wide range of environments. The wall mounting hole 16 can be used with conventional hooks to hang the outer shell 1 of the gateway device, and is not limited to the mounting plate 3 of this device.

[0078] The front and front sides of this device refer to the side facing outwards after installation, while the back and rear sides refer to the side where the wiring is in contact with the wall, i.e., the side with wiring hole 17 is the back side, and the front side is the smooth and clean side. The indicated orientation or positional relationship is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0079] While specific embodiments of the present invention have been described above, those skilled in the art should understand that the specific embodiments described are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Equivalent modifications and variations made by those skilled in the art in accordance with the spirit of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
