Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of network interface equipment technology, specifically a network interface with dustproof function. Background Technology
[0002] A network, or computer network, is a system that connects geographically dispersed computers and smart devices such as mobile phones and servers with independent functions through communication lines to achieve data transmission, resource sharing, and collaborative work between devices. It is like an information superhighway between devices, breaking the limitations of physical distance, supporting modern digital life and enterprise operations, and is the core infrastructure of the information age.
[0003] A network interface is the physical entry point for data interaction between a device and a network. It is also called a network port and has both hardware and software attributes. At the hardware level, it is a physical slot or connecting component on the device. At the software level, it requires a driver to ensure that the hardware and the device system work together. Its core function is to enable the device to receive and send data to and from the network. Without a network interface, the device cannot access the network, cannot connect to a network cable or receive a wireless network signal, and therefore cannot access the Internet.
[0004] During use, the internal contacts of existing network interfaces are usually directly exposed to the environment. Dust, lint, fibers and other impurities in the environment will gradually adhere to the contact surface. Long-term accumulation will cause the contacts to oxidize and rust or be covered by impurities. When the contacts are isolated by dust, network disconnection will occur, which requires staff to find the cause of the fault and disassemble the interface to clean the dust in order to restore the connection.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model provides a network interface with dustproof function. Utility Model Content
[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, at least one technical problem raised in the background art is solved.
[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows: A network interface with dustproof function according to this utility model includes a housing, a terminal connected to the side wall of the housing, a dustproof cover hinged inside the terminal, a limiting baffle fixed to the inner side wall of the terminal, a through groove opened on the side wall of the limiting baffle, a set of telescopic rods sleeved inside the through groove, the telescopic rods penetrating the limiting baffle, a slot base fixed to the other end of the telescopic rod, a limiting slot opened on the side wall of the slot base, a connecting rod slidably connected to the middle of the limiting slot, the other end of the connecting rod connected to the end of the limiting baffle away from the telescopic rod, a first fixing block fixed to the end of the slot base away from the telescopic rod, a second spring sleeved on the outside of the first fixing block, the second spring being parallel to the connecting rod, a second fixing block sleeved on the end of the second spring away from the first fixing block, and the other end of the second fixing block fixed to the inner wall of the limiting baffle.
[0008] Preferably, a sealing block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the dust cover, and a rubber ring is fixedly connected to the middle of the terminal and the interface connection position, and the rubber ring and the sealing block are arranged in a corresponding manner.
[0009] Preferably, the two end walls of the terminal are provided with a plurality of through grooves, a cylinder is connected inside the through groove, a connecting post is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinder, a first spring is connected to the bottom of the cylinder, and the first spring is on the outside of the connecting post.
[0010] Preferably, a second buckle is fixedly connected to the side wall of the housing, a hinge block is fixedly connected to one end of the second buckle, and a first buckle is fixedly connected to the other end of the hinge block, with the first buckle and the second buckle being parallel to each other.
[0011] Preferably, a rotating block is rotatably connected to the end of the hinge block, a telescopic ring is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating block, and a protective sleeve is fixedly connected to the other end of the telescopic ring.
[0012] Preferably, a magnetic strip is fixed to the inner wall of the terminal block, and the magnetic strip is parallel to the rubber ring.
[0013] Preferably, a handle is fixed to the outer wall of the dust cover.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0015] This utility model describes a network interface with a dustproof function. By pressing the dustproof cover, the dustproof cover comes into contact with the telescopic rod and generates pressure. This causes the telescopic rod to move into the housing, which in turn moves the card slot base synchronously. The connecting rod then slides within the limiting slot, restricting the movement direction of the card slot base. The connecting rod fixes the card slot base in this position, causing the first fixing block to compress the second spring inward. This compresses the second spring, allowing it to store elastic potential energy. Thus, the dustproof cover completes its structural design of shielding the terminal, effectively preventing dust and impurities from entering the terminal and solving the problem of poor contact or short circuits caused by dust accumulation.

[0024] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Specific implementation examples are given below.
[0026] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the device includes a housing 1. A terminal block 11 is connected to the side wall of the housing 1. A dust cover 71 is hinged inside the terminal block 11. A limit baffle 51 is fixed to the inner side wall of the terminal block 11. A through groove is opened on the side wall of the limit baffle 51. A set of telescopic rods 5 are sleeved inside the through groove and pass through the limit baffle 51. A slot base 52 is fixed to the other end of the telescopic rods 5. A limit slot 53 is opened on the side wall of the slot base 52. A connecting rod 57 is slidably connected to the middle of the limit slot 53. The other end of the connecting rod 57 is connected to the end of the limit baffle 51 away from the telescopic rod 5. A first fixing block 54 is fixed to the end of the slot base 52 away from the telescopic rod 5. A second spring 55 is sleeved on the outside of the first fixing block 54 and is arranged parallel to the connecting rod 57. A second fixing block 54 is sleeved on the end of the second spring 55 away from the first fixing block 54. The second fixing block 56 is fixed at one end to the inner wall of the limiting baffle 51. During operation, when the wireless network is unplugged, the dust cover 71 is pressed, causing it to contact the telescopic rod 5 and generate pressure. This causes the telescopic rod 5 to move into the housing 1, which in turn causes the card slot base 52 to move synchronously. The connecting rod 57 then slides within the limiting card slot 53, restricting the movement direction of the card slot base 52. The connecting rod 57 then fixes the card slot base 52 in this position, causing the first fixing block 54 to compress the second spring 55. This compresses the second spring 55 inward, allowing it to store elastic potential energy. Thus, the dust cover 71 completes its structural design of shielding the terminal, preventing dust and impurities from entering the terminal and effectively solving the problem of poor contact or short circuit caused by dust accumulation.
[0027] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, a sealing block 2 is fixedly attached to the inner wall of the dust cover 71, and a rubber ring 21 is fixedly attached to the middle of the terminal 11 at the interface connection position. The rubber ring 21 and the sealing block 2 are arranged correspondingly. When the dust cover 71 is closed during operation, the sealing block 2 will form a tight fit with the rubber ring 21 at the middle interface of the terminal 11, so that the sealing block 2 will generate axial pressure with the rubber ring 21. As a result, the rubber ring 21 will undergo elastic deformation, so that the deformed rubber ring 21 will completely fill the gap between the sealing block 2 and the terminal 11. At the same time, the sealing block 2 itself will also form a double cover of physical shielding and rubber sealing for the core area of the interface, effectively preventing dust and liquid from entering the interface and causing short circuits or poor contact.
[0028] Furthermore, such as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, several sets of through grooves are opened on the side walls of both ends of the terminal 11. A cylinder 3 is connected inside the through groove. A connecting post 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cylinder 3. A first spring 32 is connected to the bottom of the cylinder 3, and the first spring 32 is outside the connecting post 31. When the terminal 11 is replaced during operation, the cylinder 3 is pulled out to move the connecting post 31, so that the terminal 11 is freed from the gap constraint with the housing 1. Then the terminal 11 can be removed for replacement. After the replacement is completed, the cylinder 3 is loosened. Under the action of the first spring 32, the connecting post 31 is pressed against the side wall of the housing 1, thereby completing the replacement of the terminal 11 and effectively improving the work efficiency of replacing the terminal 11.
[0029] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a second latch 41 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the housing 1. A hinge block 42 is fixedly connected to one end of the second latch 41, and a first latch 4 is fixedly connected to the other end of the hinge block 42. The first latch 4 and the second latch 41 are parallel to each other. When it is necessary to store the network cable connected to the housing 1, the network cable is inserted into the slot between the first latch 4 and the second latch 41 by opening the first latch 4. The first latch 4 and the second latch 41 are parallel and the spacing is fixed. After the network cable is inserted, it will be firmly limited by the latches on both sides, so that the network cable will not slide freely. When it is necessary to adjust the length of the network cable, the first latch 4 can be rotated around the connection point by the hinge block 42, thereby expanding the slot spacing and making it easier to take the network cable out of the slot. This effectively avoids the network cable from getting tangled with other cables, which would cause the network cable interface to loosen.
[0030] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3As shown, a rotating block 62 is rotatably connected to the end of the hinge block 42. A telescopic ring 61 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating block 62, and a protective sleeve 6 is fixedly connected to the other end of the telescopic ring 61. During operation, when the metal contact point of the crystal connector is exposed, the protective sleeve 6 can be flexibly rotated and opened and closed through the rotational connection between the hinge block 42 and the rotating block 62. When the network cable is embedded in the slots of the first clip 4 and the second clip 41, the protective sleeve 6 can be put on the crystal connector, effectively preventing dust or liquid from entering the metal contact point of the crystal connector and causing poor contact. Through the extensibility of the telescopic ring 61, the protective sleeve 6 can be extended and retracted within a certain range to adapt to different connectors. Through the dual degrees of freedom of rotation and extension, the use is effectively avoided due to proximity restrictions.
[0031] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a magnetic strip 22 is fixed to the inner wall of the terminal 11, and the magnetic strip 22 is parallel to the rubber ring 21. During operation, when the plug is inserted into the terminal 11, the iron plate at the end of the plug causes the iron plate to attract the magnetic strip 22, thereby guiding the plug to accurately align with the terminal 11 and achieving rapid positioning. At the same time, the generated magnetic force will help fix the relative position of the plug and the terminal 11, effectively preventing loosening. Through the guiding effect of the magnetic force, the time and difficulty of manual alignment will be reduced.
[0032] Furthermore, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a handle 7 is fixedly attached to the outer wall of the dust cover 71. During operation, when it is necessary to open or close the dust cover 71, the operator can directly hold the handle 7 through the fixed connection between the handle 7 and the dust cover 71. By pressing or other actions, the dust cover 71 can be disengaged from or fastened to the corresponding component, thereby realizing the opening and closing operation of the dust cover 71. This avoids the situation where the surface of the dust cover 71 is smooth or the interface is too tight, which would make opening and closing difficult. It effectively solves the problem of difficulty in applying force by hand.
[0033] Working Principle: During operation, when the wireless network is unplugged, pressing the dust cover 71 causes it to contact the telescopic rod 5, generating pressure. This causes the telescopic rod 5 to move inward into the housing 1, simultaneously moving the card slot base 52. The connecting rod 57 then slides within the limiting slot 53, restricting the movement of the card slot base 52 and fixing it in place. This causes the first fixing block 54 to compress the second spring 55, storing elastic potential energy. The dust cover 71 then completes its structural design of shielding the terminal, preventing dust and impurities from entering the terminal and effectively solving the problem of poor contact or short circuits caused by dust accumulation. When 71 is in the closed state, the sealing block 2 will form a tight fit with the rubber ring 21 at the middle interface of the terminal 11, so that the sealing block 2 and the rubber ring 21 will generate axial pressure, and the rubber ring 21 will undergo elastic deformation. The deformed rubber ring 21 will completely fill the gap between the sealing block 2 and the terminal 11. At the same time, the sealing block 2 itself will also form a double cover of physical shielding and rubber sealing for the core area of the interface, effectively preventing dust and liquid from entering the interface and causing short circuits or poor contact. When replacing the terminal 11, the cylinder 3 is pulled out to move the connecting post 31, so that the terminal 11 is freed from the gap constraint with the housing 1, and then the terminal 11 can be removed for replacement. After replacement, the cylinder 3 is released, and the first spring Under the action of 32, the connecting post 31 is pressed tightly against the side wall of the chassis 1, thereby completing the replacement of the terminal 11, effectively improving the work efficiency of replacing the terminal 11. When it is necessary to store the network cable connected to the chassis 1, the network cable is inserted into the slot between the first clip 4 and the second clip 41 by opening the first clip 4. The first clip 4 and the second clip 41 are parallel and the spacing is fixed, so the network cable will be firmly limited by the clips on both sides after being inserted, so that the network cable will not slide freely. When it is necessary to adjust the length of the network cable, the first clip 4 can be rotated around the connection point by the hinge block 42, thereby expanding the slot spacing, making it easier to take the network cable out of the slot, effectively avoiding the network cable from getting tangled with other cables and causing the network cable interface to loosen. When the metal contact point of the crystal connector is exposed, it can be removed by the hinge. The rotatable connection between block 42 and rotating block 62 allows the protective sleeve 6 to rotate and open flexibly. When the network cable is inserted into the slots of the first clip 4 and the second clip 41, the protective sleeve 6 can be placed on the crystal connector, effectively preventing dust or liquid from entering the metal contact points of the crystal connector and causing poor contact. Through the elasticity of the telescopic ring 61, the protective sleeve 6 can extend and retract within a certain range to adapt to different connectors. The dual freedom of rotation and extension effectively avoids the impact of proximity restrictions on use. When the plug is inserted into the terminal 11, the iron plate at the end of the plug generates an attraction force between the iron plate and the magnetic strip 22, thereby guiding the plug to accurately align with the terminal 11 and achieving quick positioning. At the same time, the generated magnetic force helps to fix the relative position of the plug and the terminal 11.Effectively preventing loosening, the magnetic guidance reduces the time and difficulty of manual alignment. When opening or closing the dust cover 71, the operator can directly grasp the handle 7 and press it to disengage or engage the dust cover 71 with the corresponding component, thus achieving the opening and closing operation. This avoids the problem of difficulty in opening and closing due to a smooth surface or overly tight joints of the dust cover 71, effectively solving the problem of difficulty in applying force by hand.
