Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of switch latching, specifically to an anti-loosening latching structure for a switch module. Background Technology
[0002] In practical use of switch modules, the front end of the switch typically has multiple interfaces for connecting connectors to achieve device connectivity and data transmission. However, a significant problem with existing technology is that the connectors plugged into the interfaces are prone to loosening.
[0003] When connectors become loose, poor contact can occur, affecting the stability and reliability of data transmission. For example, in scenarios with large data transmission volumes or high real-time requirements, loose connectors can lead to data loss, transmission interruptions, and other problems, severely impacting the normal operation of the entire system. Furthermore, frequent loose connectors can cause physical damage to the interfaces and connectors, increasing equipment maintenance and operating costs.
[0004] Currently, while some simple fixing methods exist, such as using cable ties, these methods have many drawbacks. Cable ties are inconvenient to use and it's difficult to adjust the fixing force flexibly according to actual conditions. Furthermore, once fixed, cable ties are relatively difficult to remove, and replacing connectors or adjusting connections wastes considerable time and effort. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a structure that can effectively prevent switch module connectors from loosening, in order to improve data transmission stability and equipment reliability. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an anti-loosening latch structure for a switch module to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an anti-loosening buckle structure for a switch module, including a switch, the front end of which has multiple interfaces, a storage slot at the front end of the switch, a limiting block rotatably connected inside the storage slot, a reserved slot on the top surface of the limiting block, and a clamping screw screwed to the bottom surface of the reserved slot. The interface has a connector inside, and the clamping screw clamps the connector after being screwed downwards.
[0007] Preferably, the storage slot is located above the interface, and one end of the limiting block extending into the storage slot has a through hole. A limiting shaft is inserted into the through hole, and the two ends of the limiting shaft are respectively fixed between the top and bottom surfaces of the storage slot.
[0008] Preferably, the reserved groove is located at the other end of the limiting block, and a screw hole is provided on the bottom surface of the reserved groove, with the clamping screw and the screw hole cooperating and connected.
[0009] Preferably, the other end of the limiting block has a notch on its bottom surface, and an elastic rubber band is fixed to the surface of the notch. The elastic rubber band covers the screw hole. When the clamping screw is rotated downward, the clamping screw stretches the elastic rubber band to produce elastic deformation.
[0010] Preferably, rubber clamps are fixed on both parallel sidewalls of the storage groove. After the limiting block retracts into the storage groove, the rubber clamps are held between the limiting block and the storage groove and undergo elastic deformation.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: The anti-loosening latch structure of the switch module proposed in this utility model uses a rotatable limiting block. When the connector is inserted into the interface, the limiting block is rotated at a certain angle so that its other end extends out of the receiving groove. Then, the clamping screw is screwed downwards, so that the clamping screw abuts against the top surface of the connector, pressing the connector downwards and thus preventing the connector from falling out of the interface. This design provides a stable and reliable clamping force, ensuring that the connector maintains a stable connection state under various operating environments, and guaranteeing the continuity and stability of data transmission.

[0013] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clear and complete, the embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only some, not all, embodiments of this utility model, and are merely used to explain the embodiments of this utility model. They are not intended to limit the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0014] Please see Figures 1-8 This utility model provides a technical solution: an anti-loosening buckle structure for a switch module, including a switch 1. The front end of the switch 1 has multiple interfaces 101. The front end of the switch 1 has a storage groove 102. A limiting block 2 is rotatably connected inside the storage groove 102. The storage groove 102 is located above the interfaces 101. One end of the limiting block 2 extending into the storage groove 102 has a through hole 201. A limiting shaft 202 is inserted into the through hole 201. The two ends of the limiting shaft 202 are respectively fixed between the top and bottom surfaces of the storage groove 102. A reserved groove 203 is located at the other end of the limiting block 2. A screw hole 204 is opened on the bottom surface of the reserved groove 203. A clamping screw 3 is connected to the screw hole 204. The top surface of the limiting block 2 has a reserved groove 203. A clamping screw 3 is screwed onto the bottom surface of the reserved groove 203. A connector is inserted into the interface 101. The clamping screw 3 clamps the connector after being screwed downward.
[0015] After the connector is inserted into the interface 101, the limiting block 2 is rotated 90 degrees around the limiting shaft 202. The other end of the limiting block 2 extends out of the storage groove 102. Then, the clamping screw 3 is screwed down until it touches the top surface of the connector. At this time, the connector is pressed down to prevent it from falling out of the interface 101.
[0016] To improve the stability of clamping the connector of the clamping screw 3, the following measures were proposed: The other end of the limiting block 2 has a notch 205 on the bottom surface. An elastic rubber band 4 is fixed on the surface of the notch 205. The elastic rubber band 4 covers the screw hole 204. When the clamping screw 3 is rotated downward, the clamping screw 3 stretches the elastic rubber band 4 to produce elastic deformation.
[0017] When the bottom end of the clamping screw 3 does not extend out of the screw hole 204, the top end of the clamping screw 3 is still in the reserved groove 203, and the elastic rubber band 4 is in the initial state covering the screw hole 204. When the clamping screw 3 is needed to clamp the joint, during the process of lowering the clamping screw 3 by twisting it downward, the clamping screw 3 tensions the elastic rubber band 4 and causes elastic deformation until the elastic rubber band 4 is tightly clamped between the clamping screw 3 and the joint, increasing the friction between the clamping screw 3 and the joint.
[0018] To achieve the storage of limit block 2, the following was proposed: Rubber clamps 5 are fixed on the two parallel side walls of the storage groove 102. After the limiting block 2 retracts into the storage groove 102, the rubber clamps 5 are clamped between the limiting block 2 and the storage groove 102 and undergo elastic deformation. When the clamping connector is not needed, first screw the clamping screw 3 upward until the bottom end of the clamping screw 3 retracts into the screw hole 204. At this time, the elastic rubber band 4 springs back and retracts into the notch 205. Then, move the limiting block 2 to retract into the storage groove 102, and the rubber clamp 5 clamps between the limiting block 2 and the storage groove 102. The rebound force of the rubber clamp 5 clamps the limiting block 2, preventing the limiting block 2 from extending out of the storage groove 102 when there is no external tension.
[0019] The following are detailed instructions on how to use the anti-loosening latch structure of the switch module: When the connector needs to be inserted into interface 101 of switch 1, to prevent the connector from loosening, the limiting block 2 should be moved first, causing it to rotate 90 degrees around the limiting shaft 202. At this time, one end of the limiting block 2 that was originally inserted into the receiving slot 102 will turn out, while the other end will protrude from the receiving slot 102. After the limiting block 2 is rotated into place, the clamping screw 3 is screwed downwards. As the clamping screw 3 descends, it stretches the elastic rubber band 4 in the notch 205, causing it to deform elastically. Continue to screw the clamping screw 3 until the bottom end of the clamping screw 3 abuts against the top surface of the connector. At this time, the connector is pressed downwards, which can effectively prevent the connector from falling off the interface 101. At the same time, during the descent of the clamping screw 3, the elastic rubber band 4 is stretched and finally tightly clamped between the clamping screw 3 and the connector, increasing the friction between the clamping screw 3 and the connector, and further improving the stability of the clamping.
[0020] When the clamping joint is not needed, first screw the clamping screw 3 upwards, causing the bottom end of the clamping screw 3 to gradually retract into the screw hole 204. During this process, the originally tensioned elastic rubber band 4 will gradually rebound and eventually retract into the notch 205, returning to its initial state. After the bottom end of the clamping screw 3 is completely retracted into the screw hole 204, move the limiting block 2 to rotate in the opposite direction around the limiting shaft 202 and retract into the receiving groove 102. After the limiting block 2 retracts into the receiving groove 102, the rubber clamps 5 on the two parallel sidewalls of the receiving groove 102 will undergo elastic deformation and clamp between the limiting block 2 and the receiving groove 102. The rebound force of the rubber clamps 5 will clamp the limiting block 2, preventing the limiting block 2 from extending out of the receiving groove 102 when there is no external tension.
