[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0022] Example 1:
[0023] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a frequency converter maintenance toolbox includes a housing 1, a main control computer 2, and a tool storage box 3. The top of the housing 1 is provided with a handle 1.1 and the main control computer 2. The inside of the housing 1 is provided with a DC generator. The bottom of the housing 1 is provided with casters 1.4. The tool storage box 3 is located on the front of the housing 1. The back of the housing 1 is also provided with a push-pull handle 1.8.
[0024] The enclosure 1 is used to house and install equipment such as the main control computer 2, DC generator, and tool storage box 3. The top of the enclosure 1 is equipped with a handle 1.1 and the main control computer 2. The handle 1.1 consists of a left handle 1.2 and a right handle 1.3 symmetrically positioned on the top of the enclosure 1. The left and right handles 1.2 and 1.3 allow for lifting by one person or two people from both sides. The handles 1.1 have an insulating and anti-slip layer to prevent electric shock from equipment leakage and for ease of use. The bottom and corners of the handles 1.1 are rounded to prevent sharp parts from injuring workers. The screen of the main control computer 2 is located in the center of the top of the enclosure 1. 2. The upper part of the screen is also equipped with a power indicator light 1.6 and a buzzer alarm 1.7. The indicator light 1.6 illuminates red when a 220V AC power supply is connected, informing the operator that the equipment is powered. The buzzer alarm sounds when the equipment detects leakage or is discharging a live frequency converter, reminding the operator to pay attention to personnel safety. The bottom of the box 1 is equipped with casters 1.4, and each caster 1.4 is equipped with a locking brake 1.5. The locking brake 1.5 is used to lock and fix the casters 1.4 to prevent movement during use. The casters 1.4 can rotate freely and are used to facilitate the movement of the toolbox.
[0025] Main control computer 2 is the main control system of the toolbox. It controls the toolbox storage box, outputs standardized operating procedures, debugs the frequency converter, and retrieves relevant information. Main control computer 2 uses a capacitive main control screen with a built-in Win11 system. The screen displays four main functional modules: Standardized Operations, Frequency Converter Pre-charging, Frequency Converter Debugging, and Frequency Converter Debugging Data. Standardized Operations module 2.1 lists standardized procedures for equipment maintenance and automatically displays the necessary tools. The standardized operation steps and tools are programmable, facilitating updates and optimizations of the standardized operating procedures. The Frequency Converter Pre-charging module starts the DC power generator within the toolbox to pre-charge frequency converters that have not been used for a long time. The Frequency Converter Debugging module 2.3 connects to the Starter software, using the programming interface within the toolbox to connect and debug the frequency converter. The Frequency Converter Debugging Data module 2.4 imports frequency converter maintenance and debugging data videos into main control computer 2 for timely retrieval if needed.
[0026] The main control computer 2 and a DC generator are located inside the enclosure 1. The DC generator's wiring port is located at the bottom of the back of the enclosure 1. The DC generator can generate a DC voltage of 0-900V for the pre-charging operation of the frequency converter.
[0027] The front of the housing 1 has a tool storage box 3. Each tool storage box 3 has a numbered indicator light on its top. The tool storage is used to classify and place tools for easy access. The tool storage box 3 has a limit contact 3.2 on its back, which is used to indicate the status of the tool storage box 3. The tool storage box 3 has a model label 3.3 inside, which is used to fill in the tool model and can be replaced to adapt to tool changes. The tool storage box 3 can be lined with a liner for fixed placement of tools. The liner is also replaceable to adapt to tool changes. The front of the tool storage box 3 has an electromagnetic lock pin 3.4 and a manual lock pin. The electromagnetic lock pin 3.4 is used to lock the tool storage box 3 in conjunction with the electromagnetic lock of the tool box. The manual lock pin is used to manually open the tool storage box 3 if the electromagnetic lock of the tool box fails.
[0028] The upper back of the housing 1 features a push-pull handle 1.8 and a storage box 1.9. The push-pull handle 1.8 is a two-section retractable handle, used to move the toolbox with the casters 1.4. The storage box 1.9 is used to properly store the push-pull handle 1.8 in its retracted state, protecting the handle while facilitating toolbox storage. The back of the housing 1 also features a main control computer 2 power switch 1.10, used to start the computer. Below the power switch are four USB ports 1.11 and three network cable ports 1.12. The USB ports 1.11 are used for… For connecting external keyboards, mice, and storage devices, three computer network cable interfaces are provided: 1.12 is an RJ45 network cable port, RJ45-1 and RJ45-2 are two network ports of the same network card, and RJ45-3 is a network port of a second network card used to connect frequency converter equipment for debugging. At the bottom of the back of the enclosure, there are also five different function wiring ports. These ports use quick-connect plugs with protective covers. The plugs have different colored inner parts for quick connection to the sockets. The sockets are equipped with anti-misinsertion devices to prevent damage to the equipment during use if incorrectly inserted.
[0029] Example 2: Specific implementation steps using the structural form of Example 1.
[0030] 1. Pre-construction preparation
[0031] 1.1 Transport the toolbox to the site and connect it to a reliable grounding point via the “Grounding Socket 1.13” cable to ensure operational safety.
[0032] 1.2 Connect a 220VAC 50Hz power supply via the "Power Inlet Socket 1.17" and cable.
[0033] 1.3 Press “Computer Start Switch 1.10” to turn on the main control computer 2.
[0034] 2. Standardized maintenance
[0035] 2.1 On the central control computer, select the "Inverter" model, and then select the maintenance item (inverter cleaning, fan replacement, module replacement), etc. from the next level menu. The central control computer will provide a list of tools needed for the next maintenance step, illuminate the tool indicator light, and pop out tool storage box 3. After this step is completed, put the tools into tool storage box 3 and push it back into its original position. The central control computer will then provide the next maintenance steps and pop out the corresponding tool storage box 3 until the work is completed. If a mismatch occurs between the tools and the workflow during the operation, the "Manual Tool Retrieval" option can be used to select the tools.
[0036] 3. When using the pre-charge function, ensure that the power cord and grounding wire are properly connected, connect the power supply to the positive DC bus of the inverter through the "DC positive" socket and cable; connect the power supply to the negative DC bus of the inverter through the "DC negative" socket and cable; input the DC generator voltage through the central control computer to perform the pre-charge operation on the inverter.
[0037] 4. During the inverter commissioning process, connect the central control computer to the inverter through the "Network Cable Interface 1.12" or "USB Interface 1.11" in the toolbox, and use the Starter software in the central control computer to commission the inverter.
[0038] 5. If you need to consult the instruction manual, handbook, or maintenance videos during the inverter commissioning process, you can find the relevant information through the "Inverter Commissioning Data" interface.
