Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clock signaling technology, and in particular to a clock signaling system designed to prevent accidental insertion and removal. Background Technology

[0002] As a high-precision time synchronization device, time synchronization clocks play a crucial role in critical infrastructure fields such as data centers, communication base stations, financial transaction systems, and power dispatch networks. Their core function is to receive standard time signals from global navigation satellite systems (such as GPS and BeiDou) and use these as a reference to provide unified and accurate time synchronization services to other devices within the network, thereby ensuring the orderly operation of the entire system, the consistency of data recording, and the accuracy of fault analysis.

[0003] In existing technologies, clock signaling typically connects to external devices via BNC ports, SMA ports, or RJ45 Ethernet ports. While standard BNC connectors have a locking mechanism and RJ45 connectors have spring-loaded clips, potential risks still exist in high-reliability applications (such as high-frequency vibration environments or densely populated computer rooms).

[0004] When performing maintenance in confined server rack spaces, dragging nearby cables or touching them with tools may accidentally actuate the RJ45 springs or the locking ring of the BNC connector, causing the connection to loosen. Whether the BNC connector is fully locked is often difficult to determine visually. Existing locking mechanisms are all integrated inside the connector; once the connector's locking structure is damaged or aged, it loses its anti-disconnection capability. Therefore, proposing a mechanism that provides an additional physical limiting structure on the outside of the connector to prevent mis-insertion and removal, thus achieving 'double locking', is particularly important.

[0005] Therefore, a clock signaling method to prevent accidental insertion and removal is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the aforementioned technical defects.

[0007] Therefore, one objective of this utility model is to propose a clock signal that prevents accidental insertion and removal, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art and overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, one embodiment of the present invention provides a clock that prevents accidental insertion and removal, including a body, an antenna, a power port, and heat dissipation grooves. The antenna is movably connected to the front of the body, the power port is installed on the back of the body, and several heat dissipation grooves are provided on the top and sides of the body.

[0009] The back of the machine body is equipped with ports, which are divided into several main ports and several sub-ports;

[0010] A terminal is inserted into the port, and a head is fixedly connected to the end of the terminal;

[0011] The end is cylindrical, and a rotating ring is movably connected to the outer surface of the fixed position of the end, and a fixed post is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating ring;

[0012] The back of the machine body is fixedly connected to several connectors, and the end of each connector is fixedly connected to an elastic retaining ring. The elastic retaining ring has a notch, and the fixing post is locked inside the elastic retaining ring. The top of each connector corresponds to a port, and a cable is fixedly connected to the end of each connector.

[0013] Preferably, the outer shell of the machine body is made of plastic, and several rubber feet are fixedly connected to the bottom of the machine body.

[0014] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, the ports are arranged in a linear array on the back of the machine body, and the shape of the terminals is adapted to the ports.

[0015] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the outer surface of the end is fixedly connected to a raised track, and the outer surface of this track is movably connected to the rotating ring.

[0016] The core function of a timekeeping clock is to provide accurate time signals to other devices. An internal high-precision clock module receives time signals from satellites (such as GPS and BeiDou satellites) via an antenna. The antenna captures the radio signals containing precise time information transmitted by the satellites and transmits them to the internal signal processing module. The signal processing module decodes, analyzes, and processes these signals to extract accurate time information. Then, through internal circuitry, it converts this time information into electrical or digital signals that can be recognized by other devices. These signals are transmitted through a port to terminals plugged into the port, and then via cable to the devices that require time synchronization, thus achieving the goal of providing accurate time to other devices.

[0017] When inserting a terminal into a port on the back of the device, align the terminal tip with the corresponding port and insert it to establish an electrical connection. At this point, the swivel ring on the outer surface of the terminal tip is in its initial position, and the retaining post is not engaged in the elastic retaining ring. After insertion, the operator manually rotates the swivel ring on the outer surface of the terminal tip. Because the outer surface of the terminal tip is fixedly connected to a raised track, and this track is movably connected to the swivel ring, the swivel ring can rotate stably along this track. As the swivel ring rotates, the retaining post fixedly connected to the outer surface of the swivel ring also rotates. When the retaining post rotates to the position of the elastic retaining ring above the connector fixedly connected to the back of the device, the retaining post can smoothly engage inside the elastic retaining ring due to its notch. At this point, a secondary fixation is achieved between the terminal and the device through the engagement of the retaining post and the elastic retaining ring. In the event of an accidental pull of the terminal, because the retaining post is engaged inside the elastic retaining ring, the terminal will not be directly pulled out of the port, thus preventing accidental removal and ensuring the stability of the timing connection.

[0018] Preferably, of any of the above solutions, the fixed column is cylindrical and the joint is bent at a 90-degree angle.

[0019] The core design of this device is based on the coordinated arrangement of ports, terminals, end caps, swivel rings, fixing posts, connectors, and elastic retaining rings. This design significantly prevents accidental removal: after inserting a terminal into the port, rotating the swivel ring on the outer surface of the end cap engages the fixing post with a notched elastic retaining ring, effectively preventing the terminal from being directly pulled out due to accidental operation. In environments with extremely high requirements for equipment connection stability, such as data centers and communication base stations, this design can avoid problems such as time synchronization interruptions and data transmission failures caused by accidental terminal removal, greatly improving the reliability and stability of the system.

[0020] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, the root of the connector is bonded to the machine body with adhesive, and the elastic retaining ring is made of plastic.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0022] This anti-misplugging clock mechanism features a well-designed layout with ports, terminals, end caps, swivel rings, fixing posts, connectors, and elastic retaining rings. Its anti-misplugging function is significant: after inserting the terminal into the port, rotating the swivel ring on the outer surface of the end cap engages the fixing post with a notched elastic retaining ring, effectively preventing the terminal from being pulled out due to accidental operation. In environments with extremely high requirements for equipment connection stability, such as data centers and communication base stations, this design avoids time synchronization interruptions and data transmission failures caused by accidental terminal removal, greatly improving system reliability and stability.

[0023] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0031] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0032] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this anti-misplugging clock includes a body 1, an antenna 2, a power port 3, and a heat dissipation groove 4. The antenna 2 is movably connected to the front of the body 1, the power port 3 is installed on the back of the body 1, and several heat dissipation grooves 4 are opened on the top and sides of the body 1.

[0033] Port 5 is installed on the back of the body 1. Port 5 is divided into several main ports and several sub-ports.

[0034] A terminal 6 is inserted into port 5, and a terminal 7 is fixedly connected to the end of terminal 6;

[0035] End 7 is cylindrical, and a rotating ring 8 is movably connected to the outer surface of the fixed position of end 7, or in other words, the rotating ring 8 is rotatably connected to the preset position of the outer surface of end 7, and a fixed post 9 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating ring 8.

[0036] Several connectors 10 are fixedly connected to the back of the body 1. Each connector 10 has an elastic retaining ring 11 fixedly connected to its end. The elastic retaining ring 11 has a notch, and a fixing post 9 is engaged inside the elastic retaining ring 11. The top of each connector 10 corresponds to a port 5, and a cable 12 is fixedly connected to the end of each end 7. For example, the connector 10 is fixedly installed beside (or in a specific orientation) each port 5, and the distance between them meets the rotation radius requirement of the fixing post 9.

[0037] Example 1: The outer shell of the body 1 is made of plastic, and several rubber feet are fixedly connected to the bottom of the body 1. Ports 5 are arranged in a straight line on the back of the body 1, and the shape of the terminals 6 is adapted to the ports 5. A raised track is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the end 7, and the outer surface of this track is movably connected to the rotating ring 8. The rotating ring 8 and the end 7 can be connected by a circumferential rotation and axial fixation method (such as a tongue and groove fit). The fixed post 9 is cylindrical, and the connector 10 is bent at ninety degrees. The connector 10 has an L-shaped structure, with one end fixed to the back of the body and the other end suspended and parallel to the surface of the body to support the elastic retaining ring 11. The root of the connector 10 is glued to the body 1, and the elastic retaining ring 11 is made of plastic.

[0038] Example 2: The core function of the time synchronization clock is to provide accurate time signals to other devices. The main body 1 houses a high-precision clock module, which receives time synchronization signals from satellites (such as GPS satellites, BeiDou satellites, etc.) via antenna 2. Antenna 2 is responsible for capturing radio signals containing precise time information transmitted by satellites and transmitting them to the signal processing module inside the main body 1. The signal processing module decodes, analyzes, and processes these signals, extracting accurate time information, and then converts this time information into electrical or digital signals that can be recognized by other devices through internal circuitry. These signals are transmitted through port 5 to terminal 6 plugged into port 5, and then via cable 12 to the devices requiring time synchronization, thereby achieving the purpose of providing accurate time to other devices.

[0039] When terminal 6 needs to be inserted into port 5 on the back of body 1, align terminal 6 tip 7 with the corresponding port 5 and insert it to establish an electrical connection between terminal 6 and port 5. At this time, the rotating ring 8 on the outer surface of tip 7 is in its initial position, and the fixing post 9 is not engaged in the elastic retaining ring 11. After insertion, the operator manually rotates the rotating ring 8 on the outer surface of tip 7. Because the outer surface of tip 7 is fixedly connected to a raised track, and the outer surface of this track is movably connected to the rotating ring 8, the rotating ring 8 can rotate stably along the track. As the rotating ring 8 rotates, the fixing post 9 fixedly connected to the outer surface of the rotating ring 8 also rotates. When the fixing post 9 rotates to the position of the elastic retaining ring 11 above the connector 10 fixedly connected to the back of body 1, the fixing post 9 can smoothly engage inside the elastic retaining ring 11 because the elastic retaining ring 11 has a notch. At this time, terminal 6 and body 1 are secondary fixed through the engagement of the fixing post 9 and the elastic retaining ring 11. When terminal 6 is accidentally pulled out, the fixed post 9 is stuck inside the elastic retaining ring 11, so terminal 6 will not be pulled out directly from port 5, thus preventing accidental pull and ensuring the stability of the timing connection.

[0040] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0041] In a large data center, multiple servers require precise time synchronization to ensure data consistency and stable system operation. Staff placed this anti-misplugging clock in a suitable location within the data center. The rubber feet on the bottom of the unit 1 provide shock absorption and stability, preventing the unit 1 from moving due to vibration during operation.

[0042] First, the time synchronization function is set up. Unit 1 is turned on, and the high-precision clock module inside unit 1 begins working. Antenna 2 automatically searches for and receives satellite signals. After processing by the signal processing module, accurate time information is obtained.

[0043] Next, the terminal 6 is inserted. The operator observes the back of the unit 1; the ports 5 are arranged in a linear array. A suitable port 5 is selected, and the end 7 of the terminal 6 connected to the server is aligned with that port and inserted, ensuring that the shape of the terminal 6 matches the port 5 to achieve a good electrical connection. At this time, the swivel ring 8 on the outer surface of the end 7 is in its initial state, and the fixing post 9 is not in contact with the elastic retaining ring 11.

[0044] After inserting terminal 6, the operator holds end 7 and rotates the rotating ring 8 clockwise. Because the raised track on the outer surface of end 7 is movably connected to the rotating ring 8, the rotating ring 8 can rotate smoothly along the track. As the rotating ring 8 rotates, the fixing post 9 gradually approaches the elastic retaining ring 11 above the connector 10. When the fixing post 9 rotates to the notch of the elastic retaining ring 11, continue rotating the rotating ring 8, and the fixing post 9 smoothly engages with the inner side of the elastic retaining ring 11. At this point, terminal 6 and the machine body 1 are securely fixed through the engagement of the fixing post 9 and the elastic retaining ring 11.

[0045] Repeat the above steps, inserting the terminals 6 corresponding to the other servers requiring time synchronization into the corresponding ports 5 on the back of the main unit 1 in sequence, and rotating the rotating ring 8 to make the fixing post 9 engage with the elastic retaining ring 11. After completing the insertion and fixing of all terminals 6, the time synchronization clock begins to provide accurate time signals to each server, transmitting the time information to the server through the cable 12 to achieve time synchronization of the servers.

[0046] During use, even if the staff accidentally pulls on the cable 12, the terminal 6 will not be pulled directly out of the port 5 because the fixing post 9 is stuck inside the elastic retaining ring 11, ensuring the stability of the time synchronization connection and avoiding the time synchronization interruption problem caused by accidental disconnection.

[0047] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0048] This anti-misplugging clock mechanism utilizes a combination of port 5, terminal 6, end cap 7, rotating ring 8, fixing post 9, connector 10, and elastic retaining ring 11. Its anti-misplugging function is significant: after terminal 6 is inserted into port 5, rotating the rotating ring 8 on the outer surface of end cap 7 engages the fixing post 9 with the notched elastic retaining ring 11, effectively preventing terminal 6 from being directly pulled out due to accidental operation. In environments with extremely high requirements for equipment connection stability, such as data centers and communication base stations, this design avoids problems such as time synchronization interruption and data transmission failure caused by accidental removal of terminal 6, greatly improving the reliability and stability of the system.
