[0020] like Figure 8 As shown, a through hole 201B is fixedly opened in the middle of the bottom of the screw cover 201, and a snap-fit ​​notch 201A is fixedly opened on the side wall of the screw cover 201. A snap-fit ​​buckle 301 is fixedly connected to the cover 3, and the snap-fit ​​buckle 301 is snapped into the snap-fit ​​notch 201A. After the decorative cover plate 2 has been initially installed, screws are passed through the through hole 201B and screwed into the screw hole 103. The surface of the decorative cover plate 2 is neat and beautiful. The cover 3 is inserted into the screw cover 201, and the snap-fit ​​buckle 301 snaps into the snap-fit ​​notch 201A, completing the installation of the cover 3 on the decorative cover plate 2 and sealing and covering the screws.

[0021] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a bayonet 4 501 and a screw hole 2 502 are fixedly opened on the upper inner wall of the connecting cover plate 5. The bayonet 4 501 is fixedly engaged with the upper cover plate 7 by a locking buckle 6. The screw hole 2 502 is threadedly connected to the limiting stud 105 by a screw. A bracket 2 504 is fixedly connected to the bottom inner wall of the connecting cover plate 5. The bracket 2 504 is fixedly engaged with the bayonet 3 207 by a locking buckle 6. Multiple sets of bracket 1 503 are fixedly connected to the bottom outer side of the connecting cover plate 5. The bracket 1 503 cooperates with the limiting bayonet 205.

[0022] By setting a first clamping plate 503, a second clamping bracket 504, and a second screw hole 502 on the connecting cover plate 5, the connecting cover plate 5 is fixed to the sub-instrument frame 1. At the same time, the connecting cover plate 5 and the top of the decorative cover plate 2 are snapped together and fixed as a whole, so that the connecting cover plate 5 and the decorative cover plate 2 are combined into a whole. Compared with the joint installation method where the two are only installed and fixed to the sub-instrument frame 1, this structural setting greatly improves the overall connection strength of the sub-instrument. When assembling the connecting cover plate 5, the first clamping plate 503 is aligned with the limiting slot 205 and inserted to improve the assembly accuracy of the connecting cover plate 5 with other components. Then, the connecting cover plate 5 is pressed down, and the second clamping bracket 504 is fastened to the third slot 207 using the locking buckle 6. At this time, the connecting cover plate 5 and the decorative cover plate 2 are fixed together. Finally, a screw is screwed through the second screw hole 502 and screwed into the limiting stud 105 to completely connect the connecting cover plate 5 with the other structures of the sub-instrument.

[0023] like Figure 4 As shown, the locking buckle 6 has a clamping opening 601 at the top, and a slot 603 is fixedly opened on the middle side wall of the locking buckle 6. A locking spring block 602 is fixedly connected to the top of the slot 603, and a clamping block 604 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the slot 603.

[0024] By setting the locking buckle 6, the locking buckle 6 is pre-attached to the corresponding card holder structure, and then inserted into the corresponding slot together with the card holder structure. Through the structural features of the locking buckle 6 itself, the card holder structure is fixed in the slot structure, ensuring a tight fit between structural components and rapid initial fixation and splicing.

[0025] When in use, align the clamp 601 at the top of the locking buckle 6 with the card holder structure and insert it. As the clamping part is squeezed, the locking buckle 6 deforms and extends its side length towards the card holder, becoming thinner and longer until it is fully inserted into the clamping structure and then returns to its original shape. When pulled outward, the locking spring block 602 abuts against the card holder structure, making it difficult for the locking buckle 6 to deform. The locking buckle 6 cannot easily detach from the clamping structure, thus completing the engagement of the clamping structure and the card holder structure.

[0026] This utility model uses a plug-in method to quickly assemble and position structural components; it uses a snap-fit ​​method to quickly splice structural components together, so that different structural components can be spliced ​​and snapped together to form a tightly connected whole; and finally, the structural components are fixed by tightening screws. Connection methods include: 1. The snap-fit ​​plate 106 and the snap-fit ​​groove plate 203 (between the decorative cover plate 2 and the sub-instrument frame 1). 2. Insert plate 206 and limit socket 107 (between decorative cover plate 2 and sub-instrument frame 1); 3. Limiting slot 205 and card plate 503 (between decorative cover plate 2 and connecting cover plate 5); Card-connection methods include 1. The bayonet 102 and the bracket 202 (between the decorative cover 2 and the sub-instrument frame 1). 2. The bayonet 3 207 and the card holder 2 504 (between the decorative cover plate 2 and the connecting cover plate 5); 3. The connection between bayonet 4 501 and the upper cover plate 7; 4. Connection between bayonet 204 and rear baffle 4; Tightening screws includes: 1. Screw hole 103 and screw cover 201 (between decorative cover 2 and sub-instrument frame 1). 2. Screw hole 502 and limit stud 105 (between the cover plate 5 and the sub-instrument frame 1).

[0027] This utility model uses a plug-in method to quickly assemble and position structural components; it uses a snap-fit ​​method to splice and lock structural components together, allowing different structural components to be spliced ​​and snapped together to form a tightly connected whole; finally, the structural components are fixed and formed by tightening screws; by setting screw holes 103, bayonet slots 102, snap-fit ​​plates 106, and limiting slots 107, the decorative cover plate 2 and the sub-instrument frame 1 are firmly fixed together, and the entire decorative cover plate 2 is tightly attached to the side wall of the sub-instrument frame 1, avoiding deformation or abnormal noise of the decorative cover plate 2 due to poor adhesion; ensuring the assembly accuracy of the decorative cover plate 2 and the sub-instrument frame 1 and improving the subsequent assembly speed; by setting a cover 3, the cover 3 is inserted into the screw cover 201, and the snap-fit ​​buckle 301 is engaged with the snap-fit ​​notch 201A, completing the installation of the cover 3 on the decorative cover plate 2, sealing and covering the screws, making the surface of the decorative cover plate 2 neat and beautiful.
