Description

Filler panel and chassis

technical field

The present disclosure relates to the field of communication equipment, in particular to a filler panel and a chassis of communication equipment.

Background technique

In the communication industry, a communication device usually consists of a chassis and a single board inserted in the chassis. In actual application, the boards in the chassis may not be fully configured, but if these slots are empty, the dust in the air will enter the slots of the chassis, which will affect the service life of the equipment in the chassis over time. Therefore, it is necessary to use a A dummy panel is used to act as a module, assembled in the chassis to prevent the entry of dust while maintaining the integrity of the entire communication device.

In the prior art, the dummy panel is fixed to the chassis through screws or captive screws through the extension parts on both sides of the dummy panel. In order to cooperate with it, folding edges are provided on both sides of the chassis so that the screws or captive screws Fasten the filler panel through the screw holes on the folded edge. Because there are folding edges on both sides of the chassis, the width of the circuit board inserted into the chassis is smaller than the width of the slot of the chassis, otherwise it will be blocked by the folding edges and cannot be inserted into the chassis, resulting in wasted space on both sides of the slot inside the chassis. Therefore, it becomes the key to realize the installation and fixing of the filler panel without occupying the space on both sides of the chassis slot.

detailed description

Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, the same numerals in different drawings refer to the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary examples do not represent all implementations consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with aspects of the invention as recited in the appended claims.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the specific implementation is as follows:

Fig. 1 is a perspective view of the filler panel of the present invention; as shown in Fig. 1, a filler panel 10 is used in conjunction with a chassis 20, the filler panel 10 includes a body 11 and is respectively arranged at both ends of the body 11 and assembled in the chassis 20 The clamping part 12 and the fixing part 13 on the top; the fixing part 13 is provided with only one installation hole 131 .

Compared with the related art, the reduction of the mounting holes 131 on the fixing part 13 reduces the cost of using fasteners, and the use of clips instead of fasteners also improves the efficiency of assembly and disassembly.

Fig. 2 is another perspective view of the filler panel of the present invention; Fig. 3 is an exploded perspective view of the filler panel and the chassis of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the chassis 20 needs to be installed with multiple dummy panels 10 during the assembly process, and the dummy panels 10 are arranged on the chassis 20 side by side. The chassis 20 is provided with a first assembly part 21 and a second assembly part 22, the clamping part 12 located at one end of the body 11 is engaged with the first assembly part 21, and the clamping part 12 located at the other end of the body The fixing part 13 is fixedly matched with the second assembly part 22 through fasteners (not marked). When the dummy panel 10 is installed on the case 20 , the clamping portion 12 and the fixing portion 13 provided at both ends of the dummy panel 10 play a clamping and fastening function respectively.

Wherein, the clamping portion 12 is formed by extending from one end of the body 11 in a direction perpendicular to the body 11 , the clamping portion 12 is provided with a buckle 121 , and the first assembly portion 21 is provided with a The buckle 121 fits into the slot 211 . The fixing portion 13 is disposed on the other end of the body 11 and has a lug 132 protruding from the body 11 thereon. The second assembling part 22 is provided with a concave part 222 and a third assembling hole 221 , and the concave part 221 is matched with the lug 132 . The third assembly hole 222 corresponds to the location of the installation hole 131 . In the process of installing the dummy panel 10, first use the cooperation between the lug 132 and the recessed part 222 to provide a pre-position for installation, and then fix the installation hole 131 and the third assembly hole 221 through the captive screw. , quick and reliable installation.

It should be noted that the fixing of the installation hole 131 and the third assembly hole 222 may be through captive screws, or ordinary screws or other fasteners.

Wherein, the mounting hole 131 is disposed on the fixing portion 13 at a position close to one of the lugs 132 ; the buckle 121 is disposed on a side of the engaging portion 12 away from the mounting hole 131 . Disposing the buckle 121 and the installation hole 131 on both sides of the transverse centerline of the dummy panel 10 helps to improve its installation stability.

As shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3, the first assembling part 21 and the second assembling part 22 can be arranged on two vertical surfaces of the same assembling structure, and the first assembling part 21 is arranged on the side of the assembling structure. On the first surface, the first surface extends vertically toward the card insertion direction to form a second surface of the assembly structure, and the second assembly portion 22 is disposed on the second surface away from the first assembly portion 21 . The first assembling part 21 of the same assembling structure is used for assembling with the installation hole 131 of the first dummy panel, and the second assembling part 22 is used for assembling with the buckle 121 of the second dummy panel. By analogy, the lateral width of any assembly structure is significantly reduced compared with the size of a traditional dummy panel 10 that requires two screws to assemble, which optimizes the product structure and reduces the cost.

In addition, the upper side and the lower side of the main body 11 are respectively provided with a first reinforcement part 111 and a second reinforcement part 112, which is to further strengthen the reinforcement after the clamping and fastening of both ends of the dummy panel 10 are completed. The fixing between the dummy panel 10 and the chassis 20 is described. The specific structure is as follows: the body extends from the upper end surface between the clamping part 12 and the fixing part 13 to form a first reinforcement part 111, and the body is located between the clamping part 12 and the fixing part 13 The lower end surface of the second reinforcement part 112 is formed by extending. The first reinforcement part 111 and the second reinforcement part 112 are provided with a first assembly hole (not marked) and a second assembly hole (not marked) respectively, which are used to assemble fasteners (not marked) so as to further increase the The connection strength between the dummy panel 10 and the chassis 20 is described. The fasteners (not marked) used here may be screws, rivets and the like.

Other embodiments of the invention will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art from consideration of the specification and practice of the invention disclosed herein. This application is intended to cover any modification, use or adaptation of the present invention, these modifications, uses or adaptations follow the general principles of the present invention and include common knowledge or conventional technical means in the technical field not disclosed in this disclosure .
