Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrical control cabinet technology, specifically to an outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinet and its usage method. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industrial applications, outdoor electrical control cabinets are widely used for the electrical control and protection of various equipment. These control cabinets are usually installed outdoors and need to withstand different environmental influences, especially rain. Rain can not only damage electrical equipment, but also cause short circuits due to moisture, affecting the performance and safety of the control cabinet.

[0003] Publication number "CN214013417U" discloses an outdoor waterproof electrical cabinet. While ensuring internal waterproofing, it incorporates air circulation equipment and adopts a flip-up door design. By flipping the door upwards to open the casing, it facilitates operation in rainy weather and provides some rain protection. Simultaneously, stepped grooves are provided at corresponding positions on the casing to accommodate the door. The corrugated design of the stepped grooves improves the path for water penetration, allowing water to flow downwards along the grooves after accumulation, preventing water from entering the casing.

[0004] In actual use, although outdoor electrical control cabinets have basic waterproof functions, most of them adopt a fixed design and cannot dynamically adjust the protection range according to environmental changes. This fixed protection strategy cannot provide the best protection effect when facing rainfall of different intensities. In heavy rain, the protection of existing control cabinets may be insufficient, while in light rain or no rain, excessive enclosure may cause internal overheating and affect heat dissipation efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the current market issue of outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinets, which, while possessing basic waterproofing capabilities, mostly employ a fixed design and cannot dynamically adjust their protection range according to environmental changes, this fixed protection strategy fails to provide optimal protection against rainfall of varying intensities. In heavy rain, the existing control cabinets may offer insufficient protection, while in light rain or no rain, excessive enclosure may lead to internal overheating and impaired heat dissipation efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the first aspect of this application proposes an outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinet, including an assembly base. A control cabinet body is fixedly connected to the top of the assembly base. Heat dissipation windows are symmetrically installed on both sides of the control cabinet body. The cabinet also includes an outdoor waterproof mechanism, comprising a mounting housing, a support head, an extension component, a support component, a water collection component, a cooling component, a protective component, and a control component. The mounting housing is fixedly connected to the top of the control cabinet body. The support head is symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the mounting housing. The extension component is installed on the top of the mounting housing. The support component is installed on the extension component. The water collection component is installed on the top of the assembly base and connected to the outer wall of the mounting housing. The cooling component is installed on one side of the inner wall of the control cabinet body and connected to the water collection component. Two sets of protective components are symmetrically installed on both sides of the outer wall of the control cabinet body. The control component is installed on the control cabinet body.

[0007] The outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinet of this application embodiment has control components installed on the control cabinet body. The control components can monitor the amount of rainwater and adjust the protection range of the top of the control cabinet body according to the amount of rain. Then, the protective components can be controlled to block the heat dissipation window. The greater the rain, the larger the blocking range. In order to ensure ventilation and heat dissipation inside the control cabinet body after the heat dissipation window is blocked, the collected rainwater can be utilized by the cooling components. This ensures better heat dissipation of the control cabinet body and avoids the problem of not being able to provide optimal protection when facing rainfall of different intensities. In heavy rain, the protection of existing control cabinets may be insufficient, while in light rain or no rain, excessive sealing may cause internal overheating and affect heat dissipation efficiency.

A guide head is symmetrically fixedly connected to the other end of the protective plate, and the guide head is slidably snapped into the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the water collection assembly includes a water tank and a connecting pipe, wherein the water tank is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting base, and the connecting pipe is provided between the mounting housing and the water tank, and the two are connected through the connecting pipe.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cooling component includes a pump body, an input pipe, a heat exchange plate, a fan, an air supply pipe, and an output pipe. The pump body is mounted on the top of the mounting base. The input end of the pump body is connected to the outer wall of the water tank via a pipe. The heat exchange plate is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the control cabinet body. The input pipe is provided between the heat exchange plate and the pump body and is connected to the pump body. The output pipe is provided between the heat exchange plate and the water tank and is connected to the output pipe. The fan is mounted on the inner bottom of the control cabinet body. One end of the air supply pipe is fixedly connected to the output end of the fan, and the other end of the air supply pipe passes through the bottom of the heat exchange plate.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the protective assembly includes a snap-fit ​​side plate, a sealing plate, a supporting top plate, a second cylinder, and a drive arm. The snap-fit ​​side plates are symmetrically fixedly connected to the side wall of the control cabinet body and located on both sides of the heat dissipation window. The sealing plate is slidably snapped into the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​side plate. The supporting top plate is fixedly connected to the top of the side wall of the control cabinet body. The second cylinder is installed on the top of the supporting top plate. One end of the drive arm is fixedly connected to the top of the sealing plate, and the other end of the drive arm is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the control component includes a rain sensor and a controller, wherein the rain sensor is installed on the top of the protective plate and the controller is installed on one side of the control cabinet body.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of exhaust holes are evenly provided on one side of the heat exchange plate.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the first cylinder, the drive motor, the pump body, the fan, the second cylinder, and the rain sensor are all electrically connected to the controller, and the controller is electrically connected to an external power source.

[0017] A method for using an outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinet includes the following steps:

[0018] S1. Initialize and monitor system configuration, ensuring all connections are correct, with no damaged wires or loose components. Set up the rainfall monitoring equipment to ensure it can accurately capture and report rainfall data. Implement the rainfall monitoring and response mechanism, using a rain gauge to collect current rainfall data and transmit it to the control system. Set rainfall response thresholds according to the specific needs of the equipment, such as light rain, moderate rain, and heavy rain levels.

[0019] S2. Rainy weather heat dissipation window adjustment: Based on the monitored rainfall amount, the opening degree of the heat dissipation window is automatically adjusted. In light rain, the heat dissipation window is partially closed to prevent moisture from entering. In heavy rain, the heat dissipation window is completely closed to increase the shielding range and protect the internal components.

[0020] S3. Top protection adjustment: Adjust the protection range. Based on real-time rainfall data, adjust the size and angle of the protective plate on top of the electrical control cabinet to block rainwater to the greatest extent. Regularly check the fixation and stability of the protective plate to prevent displacement or damage in severe weather.

[0021] S4. Rainwater collection and heat exchange: The collection system is set up to collect rainwater through a pre-defined collection tank. The rainwater is then used for heat exchange to help cool the inside of the control cabinet. The heat exchange reduces the internal temperature, ensures the operation of the fan, maintains air circulation inside the control cabinet, and optimizes heat dissipation performance.

[0022] Additional aspects and advantages of this application will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of this application.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0024] 1. In this invention, by setting up an extension component, and utilizing the support arm and protective plate in the extension component, when the rainfall is heavy, the first cylinder is activated to drive the end of the support arm to retract downwards, thereby lowering the height of the support arm. After the support arm is lowered, under the action of the support component, the protection range of the protective plate can be increased, and the protection range can be adjusted accordingly according to the amount of rainfall.

[0025] 2. In this invention, by setting up a cooling component, the rainwater inside the water tank can circulate through the heat exchange plate, fan, air supply pipe and output pipe in the cooling component. By starting the pump body, the rainwater inside the water tank can be circulated through the heat exchange plate. Then, by starting the fan, air can be blown into the interior of the heat exchange plate. Since the temperature of the rainwater is low, the inside of the control cabinet can be kept ventilated under the action of the fan and the heat exchange plate, thereby ensuring the working stability of the control cabinet.

[0026] 3. In this invention, a protective component is provided. The second cylinder is installed on the top of the supporting top plate, one end of the drive arm is fixedly connected to the top of the sealing plate, and the other end of the drive arm is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder. Thus, in rainy weather, the position of the sealing plate can be adjusted by activating the second cylinder according to the amount of rainfall. This allows the protection range of the heat dissipation window to be adjusted through the sealing plate, thereby effectively improving the waterproof effect of the control cabinet body.

[0027] 4. In this invention, a control component is set up. The rain sensor and controller in the control component can monitor the amount of rainfall in real time according to the rain sensor. When the rainfall is large, the first cylinder, drive motor, pump body, fan and second cylinder can be controlled to work, thereby controlling the corresponding protective structure to work. This avoids the problem that although outdoor electrical control cabinets have basic waterproof functions, most of them adopt a fixed design and cannot dynamically adjust the protection range according to environmental changes.

[0039] Embodiments of this application are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain this application, and should not be construed as limiting this application. Rather, embodiments of this application include all variations, modifications, and equivalents falling within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

[0040] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, describes an outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinet and its usage method according to an embodiment of this application.

[0041] The present application provides an outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinet that can solve the problem that although outdoor electrical control cabinets have basic waterproof functions, most of them adopt a fixed design and cannot dynamically adjust the protection range according to environmental changes. This fixed protection strategy cannot provide the best protection effect when facing rainfall of different intensities. In heavy rain, the protection of existing control cabinets may be insufficient, while in light rain or no rain, excessive sealing may cause internal overheating and affect heat dissipation efficiency.

[0042] like Figures 1-10As shown, the outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinet of this application embodiment may include an assembly base 1, a control cabinet body 2 fixedly connected to the top of the assembly base 1, heat dissipation windows 3 symmetrically installed on both sides of the control cabinet body 2, and an outdoor waterproof mechanism 4.

[0043] The outdoor waterproofing mechanism 4 includes a mounting housing 41, a support head 42, an extension component 43, a support component 44, a water collection component 45, a cooling component 46, a protective component 47, and a control component 48.

[0044] The mounting housing 41 is fixedly connected to the top of the control cabinet body 2, and the support head 42 is symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the mounting housing 41.

[0045] It should be noted that the interior of the mounting housing 41 described in this embodiment is a cavity structure, and the top of the mounting housing 41 is uniformly provided with filter holes. The support head 42 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the mounting housing 41 by bolts.

[0046] The extension component 43 is mounted on top of the mounting housing 41, and the support component 44 is mounted on the extension component 43.

[0047] It should be noted that the extension component 43 described in this embodiment can unfold the protective structure according to the amount of rainfall, and the unfolding process of the extension component 43 can be supported by the support component 44.

[0048] The water collection assembly 45 is installed on the top of the mounting base 1 and is connected to the outer wall of the mounting housing 41.

[0049] It should be noted that the end of the water collection component 45 described in this embodiment is connected to the outer wall of the mounting housing 41 and is located below the filter hole.

[0050] The cooling component 46 is installed on one side of the inner wall of the control cabinet body 2, and the cooling component 46 is connected to the water collection component 45. The control component 48 is installed on the control cabinet body 2.

[0051] It should be noted that, as described in this embodiment, the cooling component 46 can deliver rainwater to the interior of the electrical control cabinet body 2 and cool the interior of the electrical control cabinet body 2, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the control cabinet body 2.

[0052] Specifically, when the outdoor electrical control cabinet encounters heavy rainfall, the mounting housing 41 is fixedly connected to the top of the control cabinet body 2, the support head 42 is symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the mounting housing 41, the extension component 43 is installed on the top of the mounting housing 41, the support component 44 is installed on the extension component 43, the water collection component 45 is installed on the top of the mounting base 1 and is connected to the outer wall of the mounting housing 41, the cooling component 46 is installed on one side of the inner wall of the control cabinet body 2 and is connected to the water collection component 45, two sets of protective components 47 are provided and symmetrically installed on both sides of the outer wall of the control cabinet body 2, and the control component 48 is installed on the control cabinet body 2, thereby controlling the system. Component 48 can monitor the amount of rain. Based on the amount of rain, it controls the extension component 43 to adjust the top protection range of the control cabinet body 2. Then, it can control the protection component 47 to block the heat dissipation window 3. The greater the rain, the larger the blocking range. In order to ensure ventilation and heat dissipation inside the control cabinet body 2 after the heat dissipation window 3 is blocked, the collected rainwater can be utilized by the cooling component 46. This ensures better heat dissipation of the control cabinet body 2 and avoids the problem of not being able to provide optimal protection when facing rainfall of different intensities. In heavy rain, the protection of the existing control cabinet may be insufficient, while in light rain or no rain, excessive sealing may cause internal overheating and affect heat dissipation efficiency.

[0053] To clearly illustrate the above embodiment, in one example of this application, such as Figures 1-10 As shown, the extension assembly 43 includes a support rod 431, a support plate 432, a first cylinder 433, a drive rod 434, a support arm 435, and a protective plate 436. The support rod 431 is fixedly connected to the top of the support head 42, the bottom of the support plate 432 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 431, the first cylinder 433 is mounted on the top of the mounting housing 41, one end of the drive rod 434 slides through the support plate 432 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the first cylinder 433, the outer wall of the support arm 435 is fixedly connected to the other end of the drive rod 434, and two protective plates 436 are provided, with one end of each protective plate 436 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the support arm 435.

[0054] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, one end of the support rod 431 is fixedly inserted through the top of the support head 42, and the other end of the protective plate 436 is symmetrically fixedly connected with a guide block, which is slidably engaged with the support component 44.

[0055] Specifically, in order to adjust the protection range according to the amount of rainfall, the support rod 431 is fixedly connected to the top of the support head 42, the bottom of the support plate 432 is fixedly connected to the top of the support rod 431, the first cylinder 433 is installed on the top of the mounting housing 41, one end of the drive rod 434 slides through the support plate 432 and is fixedly connected to the output end of the first cylinder 433, the outer wall of the support arm 435 is fixedly connected to the other end of the drive rod 434, and two protective plates 436 are provided, with one end of each protective plate 436 rotatably connected to the outer wall of the support arm 435. When the rainfall is heavy, the first cylinder 433 is activated, causing the end of the support arm 435 to retract downwards, thereby lowering the height of the support arm 435. After the support arm 435 lowers, the protection range of the protective plate 436 can be increased under the action of the support component 44, thus adjusting the protection range according to the amount of rainfall.

[0056] In one example of this application, such as Figures 1-10 As shown, the support assembly 44 includes a support plate 441, a drive motor 442, a threaded screw 443, a guide side plate 444, a threaded sleeve 445, a guide platform 446, and a snap-fit ​​groove 447. The support plate 441 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 432. The drive motor 442 is symmetrically installed on both sides of the support plate 441. One end of the threaded screw 443 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 442. The guide side plate 444 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 432. The guide platform 446 is slidably snapped into the inner wall of the guide side plate 444. The threaded sleeve 445 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide platform 446 and threadedly sleeved onto the threaded screw 443. The snap-fit ​​groove 447 is opened at the top of the guide platform 446. The other end of the protective plate 436 is symmetrically fixedly connected to a guide head, which is slidably snapped into the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 447.

[0057] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the guide block is slidably engaged with the inner wall of the engagement groove 447, and guide strips are symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the guide platform 446. The inner wall of the guide side plate 444 is symmetrically provided with limiting grooves that match the guide strips.

[0058] Specifically, to ensure a more stable extension process for the protective plate 436, the support plate 441 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 432, the drive motor 442 is symmetrically installed on both sides of the support plate 441, one end of the threaded screw 443 is fixedly connected to the output end of the drive motor 442, the guide side plate 444 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 432, the guide table 446 is slidably engaged with the inner wall of the guide side plate 444, and the threaded sleeve 445 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the guide table 446. The threaded sleeve is connected to the threaded screw 443, and the snap-fit ​​groove 447 is opened on the top of the guide table 446. The other end of the protective plate 436 is symmetrically fixed with a guide head, which slides and snaps into the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 447. When the protection range of the protective plate 436 needs to be increased, the drive motor 442 is started first to drive the threaded screw 443 to rotate, thereby allowing the guide table 446 to extend outward. Then, the snap-fit ​​groove 447 on the guide table 446 can make the extension process of the protective plate 436 more stable.

[0059] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figures 1-10 As shown, the water collection assembly 45 includes a water tank 451 and a connecting pipe 452. The water tank 451 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting base 1. The mounting housing 41 and the water tank 451 are connected by the connecting pipe 452.

[0060] It should be noted that one end of the connecting pipe 452 described in this embodiment is fixedly connected to the bottom of the filter hole in the mounting housing 41, and the side wall of the water tank 451 is also equipped with a water injection hole.

[0061] Specifically, to ensure that rainwater can be utilized, since the water tank 451 is fixedly connected to the top of the mounting base 1, a connecting pipe 452 is provided between the mounting housing 41 and the water tank 451, and they are connected through the connecting pipe 452. During heavy rainfall, the control cabinet body 2 can be protected by the protective plate 436. However, the protective plate 436 cannot completely block rainwater. Therefore, rainwater can be collected through the filter hole opened on the top of the mounting housing 41. At the same time, a water inlet hole can also be opened on the top of the water tank 451 to ensure that rainwater collection is more convenient, thereby enabling the utilization of rainwater.

[0062] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figures 1-10As shown, the cooling component 46 includes a pump body 461, an input pipe 462, a heat exchange plate 463, a fan 464, an air supply pipe 465, and an output pipe 466. The pump body 461 is installed on the top of the mounting base 1. The input end of the pump body 461 is connected to the outer wall of the water tank 451 through a pipe. The heat exchange plate 463 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the control cabinet body 2. An input pipe 462 is provided between the heat exchange plate 463 and the pump body 461 and is connected through the input pipe 462. An output pipe 466 is provided between the heat exchange plate 463 and the water tank 451 and is connected through the output pipe 466. The fan 464 is installed on the inner bottom of the control cabinet body 2. One end of the air supply pipe 465 is fixedly connected to the output end of the fan 464, and the other end of the air supply pipe 465 passes through the bottom of the heat exchange plate 463.

[0063] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, multiple exhaust holes are evenly distributed on one side of the heat exchange plate 463.

[0064] It should be noted that the heat exchange plate 463 described in this embodiment has a U-shaped structure and the interior of the heat exchange plate 463 has a cavity structure.

[0065] Specifically, to ensure effective heat dissipation inside the control cabinet body 2, the pump body 461 is installed on top of the mounting base 1. The input end of the pump body 461 is connected to the outer wall of the water tank 451 via a pipe. The heat exchange plate 463 is fixedly connected to one side of the inner wall of the control cabinet body 2. An input pipe 462 is provided between the heat exchange plate 463 and the pump body 461, and the pump body 461 is connected via the input pipe 462. An output pipe 466 is provided between the heat exchange plate 463 and the water tank 451, and the heat exchange plate 463 is connected via the output pipe 466. A fan 464 is installed inside the control cabinet body. At the bottom inner side of body 2, one end of the air supply duct 465 is fixedly connected to the output end of the fan 464, and the other end of the air supply duct 465 passes through the bottom of the heat exchange plate 463. Then, by starting the pump body 461, the rainwater inside the water tank 451 can circulate in the heat exchange plate 463. Then, by starting the fan 464, air can be blown into the interior of the heat exchange plate 463. Since the temperature of the rainwater is low, the inside of the control cabinet body 2 can be kept ventilated under the action of the fan 464 and the heat exchange plate 463, thereby ensuring the working stability of the control cabinet body 2.

[0066] It should be understood that when the control cabinet body 2 is in use, the heat dissipation window 3 can still maintain a certain amount of heat dissipation holes while being protected by the protective component 47, thereby ensuring ventilation.

[0067] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figures 1-10As shown, the protective assembly 47 includes a snap-fit ​​side plate 471, a sealing plate 472, a supporting top plate 473, a second cylinder 474, and a drive arm 475. The snap-fit ​​side plate 471 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the side wall of the control cabinet body 2 and located on both sides of the heat dissipation window 3. The sealing plate 472 is slidably snapped into the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​side plate 471. The supporting top plate 473 is fixedly connected to the top of the side wall of the control cabinet body 2. The second cylinder 474 is installed on the top of the supporting top plate 473. One end of the drive arm 475 is fixedly connected to the top of the sealing plate 472, and the other end of the drive arm 475 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder 474.

[0068] It should be noted that the sealing plate 472 described in this embodiment has an L-shaped structure. Limiting plates are symmetrically fixedly connected to both sides of the sealing plate 472, and the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​side plate 471 is provided with a limiting groove that matches the limiting plate.

[0069] Specifically, in rainy weather, rainwater can easily enter the interior of the control cabinet body 2 through the heat dissipation window 3. To avoid this problem, the snap-fit ​​side plates 471 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the side wall of the control cabinet body 2 and located on both sides of the heat dissipation window 3. The sealing plate 472 is slidably snapped into the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​side plates 471. The supporting top plate 473 is fixedly connected to the top of the side wall of the control cabinet body 2. The second cylinder 474 is installed on the top of the supporting top plate 473. One end of the drive arm 475 is fixedly connected to the top of the sealing plate 472, and the other end of the drive arm 475 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder 474. Thus, in rainy weather, depending on the amount of rainfall, the position of the sealing plate 472 can be adjusted by activating the second cylinder 474, thereby adjusting the protection range of the heat dissipation window 3 through the sealing plate 472, thereby effectively improving the waterproof effect of the control cabinet body 2.

[0070] In one embodiment of this application, such as Figures 1-10 As shown, the control assembly 48 includes a rain sensor 481 and a controller 482, wherein the rain sensor 481 is mounted on the top of the protective plate 436, and the controller 482 is mounted on one side of the control cabinet body 2.

[0071] Furthermore, such as Figures 1-10 As shown, the first cylinder 433, drive motor 442, pump body 461, fan 464, second cylinder 474 and rain sensor 481 are all electrically connected to controller 482, and controller 482 is electrically connected to an external power supply.

[0072] Specifically, in order to intelligently adjust the waterproof effect of the control cabinet body 2 according to the amount of rainfall, since the rain sensor 481 is installed on the top of the protective plate 436 and the controller 482 is installed on one side of the control cabinet body 2, the amount of rainfall can be monitored in real time by the rain sensor 481. When the rainfall is heavy, the first cylinder 433, drive motor 442, pump body 461, fan 464 and second cylinder 474 can be controlled to work, thereby controlling the corresponding protective structure to work. This avoids the problem that although outdoor electrical control cabinets have basic waterproof functions, most of them adopt a fixed design and cannot dynamically adjust the protection range according to environmental changes.

[0073] A method for using an outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinet includes the following steps:

[0074] S1. Initialize and monitor system configuration, ensuring all connections are correct, with no damaged wires or loose components. Set up the rainfall monitoring equipment to ensure it can accurately capture and report rainfall data. Implement the rainfall monitoring and response mechanism, using a rain gauge to collect current rainfall data and transmit it to the control system. Set rainfall response thresholds according to the specific needs of the equipment, such as light rain, moderate rain, and heavy rain levels.

[0075] S2. Rainy weather heat dissipation vent adjustment: Based on the monitored rainfall, the opening degree of the heat dissipation vent is automatically adjusted. In light rain, the heat dissipation vent is partially closed to prevent moisture from entering. In heavy rain, the heat dissipation vent is completely closed to increase the shielding range and protect the internal components.

[0076] S3. Top protection adjustment: Adjust the protection range. Based on real-time rainfall data, adjust the size and angle of the protective plate 436 on the top of the electrical control cabinet to block rainwater to the greatest extent. Regularly check the fixation and stability of the protective plate 436 to prevent displacement or damage in severe weather.

[0077] S4. Rainwater collection and heat exchange: The collection system is set up to collect rainwater through a pre-defined collection tank and use the rainwater for heat exchange. The collected rainwater helps cool the inside of the control cabinet, reduces the internal temperature through heat exchange, ensures the operation of the fan 464, maintains air circulation inside the control cabinet, and optimizes heat dissipation performance.

[0078] In summary, the outdoor waterproof intelligent electrical control cabinet and its usage method of this application embodiment have a control component 48 installed on the control cabinet body 2. The control component 48 can monitor the amount of rainwater. Based on the amount of rainwater, the extension component 43 can be controlled to adjust the top protection range of the control cabinet body 2. Then, the protection component 47 can be controlled to cover the heat dissipation window 3. The greater the rain, the larger the coverage area. In order to ensure ventilation and heat dissipation inside the control cabinet body 2 after the heat dissipation window 3 is covered, the collected rainwater can be utilized by the cooling component 46. This ensures better heat dissipation of the control cabinet body 2 and avoids the problem of not being able to provide optimal protection when facing rainfall of different intensities. In heavy rain, the protection of existing control cabinets may be insufficient, while in light rain or no rain, excessive sealing may lead to internal overheating and affect heat dissipation efficiency.

[0079] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
