Then the driving motor group can be started, so that the output end drives the movable frame to move backward as a whole, so that the driving arm pulls the upper sliding block and the baffle plate to move upward as a whole. After that, due to the relationship that the inner sides of the two tooth racks are meshed with the surface of the transmission gear, the lower sliding block and the baffle plate are driven to move downward as a whole, and finally the two baffle plates are back to back to release the sealing of the heat dissipation port.

[0044] When the induction water tank 601 is subjected to the heat generated by the operation of the electrical component 5, the water inside will be evaporated, and through the connecting pipe 603 and the water circulation component 7, the linkage mechanism 9 will drive the cooling fan 8 to rotate to accelerate the cooling of the water vapor inside the connecting pipe 603 into water for circulation.
[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, an infrared temperature sensor 3 is arranged on the top of the front of the cabinet door 2 , and an audible and visual alarm device 4 is arranged on the front of the power distribution cabinet housing 1 and is located on the right side of the infrared temperature sensor 3 .
[0046] The above solution is adopted: by providing an infrared temperature sensor 3, when the infrared temperature sensor 3 senses that the inside of the distribution cabinet housing 1 is overheated, the sound and light alarm device 4 will send a sound and light alarm to the operator so that the operation can be stopped in time for maintenance.
[0047] like Figure 7 As shown, the water circulation assembly 7 includes a first valve column 701, a first connecting spring 702, a rotating water wheel 703, a second valve column 704 and a second connecting spring 705;
[0048] The first valve column 701 is movably installed inside the connecting pipe 603 and on the top of the sensing water tank 601, the first connecting spring 702 is fixedly installed on the top of the first valve column 701, the rotating water wheel 703 is movably sleeved inside the connecting pipe 603 and under the cooling fan 8, the second valve column 704 is movably installed at the bottom of the right end of the connecting pipe 603, and the second connecting spring 705 is fixedly installed on the left side of the second valve column 704.
[0049] The above scheme is adopted: by providing a rotating water wheel 703, when the water vapor in the connecting pipe 603 pushes the first valve column 701 upward, it can flow to the top of the rotating water wheel 703, and some water droplets will fall and flow on the surface of the rotating water wheel 703 to drive the rotating water wheel 703 to rotate, so as to subsequently drive the linkage mechanism 9 to drive the cooling fan 8 to rotate.
[0050] like Figure 7 As shown, the other ends of the first connecting spring 702 and the second connecting spring 705 are both fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe 603 .
[0051] The above scheme is adopted: by providing a first connecting spring 702 and a second connecting spring 705, due to the elastic force of the first connecting spring 702, the first valve column 701 can be pushed downward, so that the gas can only pass upward, and the elastic force of the second connecting spring 705 can push the second valve column 704 to the right, so that the water flow or gas can only flow back to the sensing water tank 601 to the left by pushing the second connecting spring 705.
[0052] like Figure 6 As shown, the linkage mechanism 9 includes a first connecting arm 901, a linkage arm 902, a second connecting arm 903, a first helical gear 904 and a second helical gear 905;

[0054] By adopting the above solution, by providing the linkage arm 902, when the rotating water wheel 703 rotates, the first connecting arm 901 and the linkage arm 902 can be driven to rotate, so as to drive the second connecting arm 903 and the first bevel gear 904 to rotate.
[0055] like Figure 6 As shown, the surfaces of the first helical gear 904 and the second helical gear 905 are meshed.
[0056] The above solution is adopted: by providing a first bevel gear 904, when the first bevel gear 904 rotates, the teeth can drive the second bevel gear 905 and the cooling fan 8 to rotate as a whole, so that the cooling fan 8 accelerates the cooling of the water vapor inside the connecting pipe 603.
[0057] like Figure 2 As shown, heat dissipation openings 10 are provided on both sides of the power distribution cabinet housing 1 .
[0058] By adopting the above solution, the heat generated by the electrical component 5 during operation can be ventilated and dissipated through the design of the heat dissipation opening 10 .
[0059] like Figure 4As shown, shielding and dustproof components 11 located outside the heat dissipation port 10 are provided on both sides of the power distribution cabinet housing 1, and the shielding and dustproof components 11 include shielding plates 1101 and sliding blocks 1102;
[0060] The shielding plate 1101 is movably installed above and below the outer side of the heat dissipation port 10 , and the sliding block 1102 is fixedly installed in the middle of the outer side of the shielding plate 1101 and inside the power distribution cabinet housing 1 , and is movably connected to the inside of the power distribution cabinet housing 1 .
[0061] By adopting the above solution, by providing the shielding plates 1101, when the two shielding plates 1101 face each other and completely shield the heat dissipation port 10, the electrical component 5 can be shielded from dust and moisture inside when it is not in operation.
[0062] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a driving assembly 12 is disposed on the top of the power distribution cabinet housing 1, and the driving assembly 12 includes a driving motor group 1201, a movable frame 1202 and a driving arm 1203;
[0063] The driving motor group 1201 is fixedly installed in the middle of the top of the distribution cabinet shell 1, the movable frame 1202 is threadedly sleeved on the surface of the driving motor group 1201, and both sides extend to the top of the sliding block 1102, and the driving arm 1203 is hinged between the bottom of the movable frame 1202 and the top of the sliding block 1102.
[0064] By adopting the above solution, the driving arm 1203 is provided. When the driving motor group 1201 operates to drive the movable frame 1202 to move backward, the driving arm 1203 can pull the upper sliding block 1102 and the shielding plate 1101 to move upward as a whole.
[0065] like Figure 4 As shown, a transmission assembly 13 is disposed on the back of the shielding plate 1101, and the transmission assembly 13 includes a toothed rack 1301 and a transmission gear 1302;
[0066] The gear rack 1301 is arranged on the back side of the baffle plate 1101 , and the transmission gear 1302 is movably sleeved on both sides of the power distribution cabinet housing 1 and the middle part of the inner side of the gear rack 1301 , and the inner side of the gear rack 1301 is meshed with the surface of the transmission gear 1302 .
[0067] By adopting the above solution, the transmission gear 1302 is provided, and when the upper baffle plate 1101 and the tooth rack 1301 move upward, the transmission gear 1302 can rotate to drive the lower tooth rack 1301 and the baffle plate 1101 to move downward as a whole.
[0068] The working principle and use process of the present invention:
[0069] First, the operator can start the drive motor group 1201. Due to the operation of the drive motor group 1201, the movable frame 1202 can be driven to move backward as a whole. At this time, the drive arm 1203 will be deflected to pull the upper sliding block 1102 and the baffle plate 1101 to move upward as a whole. After the upper gear rack 1301 rises, the teeth will drive the transmission gear 1302 to rotate, so as to drive the lower gear rack 1301, the sliding block 1102 and the baffle plate 1101 to descend as a whole, and finally the two baffle plates 1101 are turned back to back to completely remove the obstruction of the heat dissipation port 10, so as to subsequently perform auxiliary ventilation and heat dissipation through the heat dissipation port 10.
[0070] Afterwards, when the electrical component 5 is running, heat will be generated to evaporate the water inside the induction water tank 601 to generate water vapor, which can then pass through the connecting pipe 603 and push the first valve column 701 upward, while the water vapor will continue to move upward. After part of the water vapor cools and generates water droplets, it will flow on the surface of the rotating water wheel 703 to drive it to rotate, and at the same time drive the first connecting arm 901 and the linkage arm 902 to drive the second connecting arm 903 and the first bevel gear 904 to rotate. When the surfaces of the first bevel gear 904 and the second bevel gear 905 are meshed, the second bevel gear 905 and the cooling fan 8 can be driven to rotate, so that the cooling fan 8 rotates to blow air to accelerate the cooling of the water vapor, so that a large amount of water flows and pushes the second valve column 704 to the left until it flows back to the inside of the induction water tank 601, achieving a circulating water flow balance. Finally, it can be observed through the observation window 602 that the induction water tank 601 has the least water, and it is determined that the electrical component 5 in front of this position has the highest temperature, that is, the electrical component 5 is faulty.
