[0026] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Reference Figures 1-4 A waterproof connector structure based on a wireless router is provided. This waterproof connector structure based on a wireless router includes a router housing 1 and an interface panel 2. The interface panel 2 is provided with at least one interface slot 201, and an annular sealing groove 3 is provided on the outside of each interface slot 201.

[0028] It also includes a waterproof structure, which includes a sealing cover 4, a sealing ring 5 (made of silicone rubber) and a flow guide 6, which are rotatably mounted on the interface panel 2 via a pivot 7. The sealing cover 4 can rotate around the interface axis, the sealing ring 5 is embedded inside the sealing cover 4, and the flow guide 6 is located below the interface slot 201. In application, the triple design of the rotatable sealing cover 4, the embedded sealing ring 5 and the flow guide 6 achieves coordinated protection of physical isolation, elastic sealing and drainage, which significantly improves the reliability of interface waterproofing. At the same time, combined with the dynamic sealing mechanism, the design of the sealing cover 4 rotating around the interface axis not only facilitates insertion and removal operations, but also allows the sealing ring 5 to press the annular sealing groove 3 when closed, avoiding the problem of traditional rubber plugs aging and falling off easily.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 The interface slot 201 includes at least one of an RJ45 interface, a DC power interface, and a USB interface. In applications, the compatibility extension design supports the waterproof requirements of multiple interfaces such as RJ45, DC power, and USB, and adapts to the mainstream interface types of routers to improve product versatility.

[0030] Reference Figure 1and Figure 2 The rotation angle range of the sealing cover 4 is 0-90°. The sealing cover 4 is in a sealed state when it is in a horizontal position and in an open state when it is in a vertical position. In application, the rotation angle of the sealing cover 4 is limited (0-90°). When it is closed horizontally, it automatically seals. When it is opened vertically, it completely avoids the interface, simplifying the user's operation process.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 The edge of the sealing cover 4 is provided with an opening indicator mark 401. If the edge of the sealing cover 4 is sprayed with green fluorescent paint as the opening indicator mark 401, it can be identified in the dark environment. In application, the design prevents accidental operation. The opening indicator mark 401 can clearly indicate the status of the sealing cover 4 and avoid waterproof failure due to accidental operation.

[0032] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 The inner side of the sealing cover 4 is provided with an annular groove, and the sealing ring 5 is interference-fitted into the annular groove. The sealing ring 5 has a trapezoidal cross section, with the wide side facing the interface slot 201. In application, the wide side of the trapezoidal cross section sealing ring 5 faces the interface slot 201, and a wedge-shaped sealing effect is generated when it is compressed. The interference fit ensures that the elastic sealing force is maintained after long-term use.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The bottom of the flow guide 6 is an inclined slope structure, such as a slope of ≥15°, and the lowest point of the inclined slope structure is provided with drainage holes 601 arranged in a rectangular array, such as drainage holes 601 with a diameter of 1mm and a spacing of 5mm, to ensure that the liquid is quickly discharged. In application, the inclined slope structure of the flow guide 6 and the rectangular array of drainage holes 601 can quickly draw away the seeping liquid and avoid water accumulation that corrodes the interface slot 201 or the circuit.

[0034] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The rotating shaft 7 is a plastic snap-fit ​​shaft, and the rotating shaft 7 and the interface panel 2 are injection molded in one piece. In application, the plastic snap-fit ​​rotating shaft 7 and the interface slot 201 are injection molded in one piece, avoiding the risk of metal rotating shaft corrosion, reducing assembly costs and enhancing durability.

[0035] Reference Figures 1-4 It also includes a waterproof partition 8, which is installed on the back of the interface panel 2 and independently separates the circuit area corresponding to each interface slot 201. In application, the waterproof partition 8 separates the circuit areas of each interface to prevent water from entering a single interface and causing the whole machine to fail, thereby improving the safety of the equipment.

[0036] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Initial installation stage: First, confirm that the sealing cover 4 is in a horizontal closed state and the sealing ring 5 is fully embedded in the annular sealing groove 3. Then, install the waterproof partition 8) to ensure that each interface circuit is independently separated.

[0037] In daily use: When the interface needs to be opened, press the opening indicator mark 401 on the edge of the sealing cover 4 with your finger, rotate it to the vertical position (90°), and then insert the network cable, power cord and other devices, ensuring that the plug is fully inserted into the interface slot 201;

[0038] When the seal needs to be closed, first unplug the plug, then immediately rotate the sealing cover 4 back to the horizontal position, and then press the sealing ring 5 into the annular sealing groove 3.

[0039] Maintenance and emergency phase: If liquid seeps into the flow guide 6, the liquid will flow through the inclined slope structure to the drain hole 601 and flow out through the drain hole 601. Also, clean the dust in the annular sealing groove 3 with cotton swabs every quarter to avoid affecting the sealing effect.

[0040] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
