Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electricity meter boxes, and in particular to an electricity meter box with a locking structure. Background Technology

[0002] In the power transmission and distribution process, meter boxes serve as the core carrier for electricity metering, line protection, and electricity management. They are widely used in various scenarios such as residential communities and commercial complexes. Their safety, stability, and ease of operation directly affect the reliable supply of power resources and the standardized management of electricity consumption. Regarding the locking structure for opening and closing the box, the snap-locking mechanism has become a standard configuration for many meter boxes due to its advantages of simple structure, low cost, and keyless operation. However, the elastic components it relies on are susceptible to aging and failure due to environmental factors. Once the lock fails, the meter box door can easily be opened accidentally, which can easily cause losses and safety risks. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a meter box with a locking structure that offers enhanced stability and security while ensuring convenience.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an electric meter box with a locking structure, including a box body, the box body including a swing door, and a locking member passing through the lower part of the box body. The locking member is vertically slidable, and a first limiting member and a second limiting member are respectively provided on the locking member and the swing door. The locking member can slide upward to form a limiting engagement between the first limiting member and the second limiting member, and the locking member can slide downward to cause the limiting engagement between the first limiting member and the second limiting member to be released.

[0005] The advantages of the above technical solution are: by setting a vertically sliding locking component at the bottom of the box, and by using the limiting cooperation formed between the locking component and the first and second limiting components on the swing door, the locking is achieved. Through the snap-fit ​​cooperation between the two components, it is not easy to age and fail. On the basis of the original locking structure, stability and reliability are increased. Moreover, locking or unlocking only requires sliding the locking component up and down, which is convenient to operate. Finally, the locking component is set at the bottom of the box, which not only forms a cooperative protection with the original snap-fit ​​mechanism, but also has a certain degree of concealment without damaging the existing assembly system, thus taking into account both practicality and safety.

[0006] The present invention can be further configured such that: the first limiting member is provided with a protrusion, the second limiting member is provided with a slot, and the protrusion can slide upward with the locking member to extend into the slot.

[0007] By further designing the first limiting member with a protrusion and the second limiting member with a slot, the protrusion extends into the slot to form a locking engagement when the locking member slides upward, thus achieving a limiting effect. This design offers strong stability and a simple structure.

[0008] The present invention can be further configured such that: the locking member includes sliding rods located on both sides, the sliding rods being disposed at the side wall of the box and slidingly engaging with the side wall of the box.

[0009] By further designing the sliding rods on both sides of the locking component and creating a guiding sliding fit between the sliding rods and the side wall of the housing, the vertical sliding of the locking component can be guided, ensuring stability and smoothness.

[0010] The present invention can be further configured such that: the bottom of the box body is provided with a through hole for the sliding rod to slide through, and the first limiting member can slide down with the locking member to abut against the inner wall of the bottom of the box body.

[0011] By further designing the box, a through hole is provided at the bottom of the box for the sliding rod to pass through, providing further limitation for the sliding rod. The first limiting member slides downward with the locking member and can abut against the inner wall of the bottom of the box, which can limit the downward sliding limit of the locking member, prevent the sliding rod from coming out of the through hole or the locking member from being damaged, and ensure the stability of the locking member. In the abutting state, the locking member is in a stable unlocked position, which is convenient for subsequent use.

[0012] The present invention can be further configured such that: an elastic element is provided on the side wall of the box body, the elastic element is provided at the position corresponding to the sliding rod, one end of the elastic element is rotatably connected to the side wall of the box body, the other end of the elastic element can rotate circumferentially with the one end of the elastic element, and the other end of the elastic element is connected to the sliding rod.

[0013] By further designing the mechanism, an elastic element is installed on the side wall of the housing corresponding to the sliding rod position. One end of the elastic element is rotatably connected to the side wall, and the other end is connected to the sliding rod. The rotational characteristics of the elastic element achieve dual elastic limiting. On the one hand, the elastic element can drive the protrusion to elastically abut against the slot, eliminating the gap between the protrusion and the slot through continuous elastic force, preventing accidental disengagement due to vibration or collision, and improving stability. On the other hand, when the locking element slides down to unlock, the elastic element can cause the first limiting element to elastically abut against the inner wall of the bottom of the housing, keeping the unlocked position stable and convenient to use. Furthermore, during the process of sliding the locking element up and down, it initially overcomes the elastic force until the elastic element reverses, at which point the adjustment can be completed through the elastic action of the elastic element, reducing the operating stroke.

[0014] The present invention can be further configured such that: a placement plate is provided below the locking member, and the placement plate can slide up with the locking member to abut against the lower end of the box.

[0015] With further design, the placement plate slides up with the locking component and abuts against the lower end of the box. On the one hand, the abutting state can provide auxiliary limit to the upward sliding stroke of the locking component and further ensure that the locking component slides into place, so that the protrusion and the slot are stably engaged, improving the locking reliability. On the other hand, after the locking component slides down, the placement plate can also be used to place maintenance tools. When maintenance personnel open the meter box to read meters or carry out maintenance work, they do not need to find a place to put the tools. They can directly place tools such as screwdrivers and multimeters on the placement plate, which not only prevents the tools from falling and being lost, but also makes them readily available and convenient to use.
