[0011] Beneficial effects
[0012] 1. In this invention, a spring A is fitted on the guide rod above the ear support plate. When maintenance is required, the explosion-proof cover can be pushed down by hand. After pushing it to the bottom, it can be lifted up to open the cover and cut off the power, which can ensure maintenance safety.

[0013] 2. In this invention, the inner end of the lock head is a downward-sloping inclined structure. A spring C is fitted on the lock rod on the outer side of the lock head. In its natural state, the docking terminals are kept in contact with the positive terminal by the action of the spring B and the baffle, ensuring normal connection. When vibration or internal thrust occurs, the explosion-proof cover moves the adaptive lock pin downward through the sleeve, and the inner end of the lock head moves along the movable shuttle. When it reaches the lowest position, it quickly disengages and unlocks under the action of the guide rod and the spring A, separating the negative terminal from the positive terminal, achieving a safe protection of power-off separation. This is fast, effective, safe, and convenient.
[0014] 3. In this invention, the lower connecting seat will be locked together with the upper connecting seat, i.e., in the normal power supply state. The lower end of the negative terminal has a groove that fits into the upper end of the movable shuttle. When it encounters an explosive thrust or external force, the locking head will continue to move down with the lower connecting seat, and the locking head will move down along the movable shuttle. At this time, the lower connecting seat is in the movable state. When the lower connecting seat moves up, the locking head pulls the movable shuttle up. After the upper end of the movable shuttle is engaged in the negative terminal, when the shuttle edge is connected to the lower end of the negative terminal, the locking head slides past the movable shuttle and the negative terminal and is in the disengaged state. At this time, it is in the power-off and cover-opening protection state, which can ensure the switching between normal operation and explosion-proof requirements. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To make the objectives, solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise stated, the terms used herein have their ordinary meanings in the art. The same reference numerals in the drawings represent the same parts.
[0029] Example: Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 :
[0030] This invention proposes a power-off cover protection device for explosion-proof electrical appliances, comprising: an explosion-proof electrical appliance power supply body 1; upper connecting seats 2 symmetrically fixedly installed on the upper ends of the left and right side walls of the explosion-proof electrical appliance power supply body 1; an explosion-proof cover plate 3 horizontally installed between the four upper connecting seats 2; a lower connecting seat 4 vertically installed on the bottom side wall of the explosion-proof cover plate 3 at a position opposite to the middle of the upper connecting seats 2; a docking terminal 5 vertically installed in the lower connecting seat 4; and self-adaptive locking pins 6 horizontally symmetrically installed at the lower middle position of the lower connecting seat 4.
[0031] Furthermore, according to embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a circular docking plate 201 is fixedly installed at the upper middle part of the upper connecting seat 2; a negative end 203 is vertically fixedly installed at the upper middle part of the docking plate 201. The end of the negative end 203 has a structure that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, which makes it easy for the lock head 602 to be partially inserted.
[0032] The part at the lower end of the negative terminal 203 is a columnar structure with a reduced diameter. An active shuttle 204 is slidably sleeved on the columnar structure. The active shuttle 204 has a structure that is narrow at both the upper and lower ends and wide in the middle. The outer diameter of the active shuttle 204 is smaller than the outer diameter of the negative terminal 203. When part of the lock head 602 is inserted into the positions of the negative terminal 203 and the active shuttle 204, the lower connecting seat 4 will be in a locked and combined state with the upper connecting seat 2, that is, in the normal power - using state. A groove is provided at the lower end of the negative terminal 203, which is fitted with the upper end of the active shuttle 204. When encountering an explosion thrust or an external force, the lock head 602 will continue to move downward with the lower connecting seat 4, and the lock head 602 will move downward along the active shuttle 204. At this time, the lower connecting seat 4 is in an active state, the lower connecting seat 4 moves upward, the lock head 602 pulls the active shuttle 204 upward. After the upper end of the active shuttle 204 is inserted into the negative terminal 203 and the shuttle edge is connected to the lower annular edge of the negative terminal 203, the lock head 602 slides past the active shuttle 204 and the negative terminal 203 to be in a disconnected state. At this time, it is in a power - off and cover - opening protection state, which can ensure the conversion between normal operation and explosion - proof requirements;
[0033] On the outer wall of the upper connecting seat 2, an ear support plate 202 is vertically and fixedly installed, which can cooperate with the guide rod 304 and the spring A305 to always provide an upward thrust for the explosion - proof cover plate 3, so as to be able to self - unlock and open the cover for power - off protection when encountering vibration or internal thrust.
[0034] In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 1 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, transverse grip bars 301 are fixedly installed in the slots in the middle of the front edge and the middle of the rear edge of the explosion - proof cover plate 3; at the four corners of the bottom plane of the explosion - proof cover plate 3, guide rods 304 are vertically and downwardly fixedly installed respectively. The lower ends of the guide rods 304 are slidably inserted into the ear support plate 202; a spring A305 is sleeved on the guide rod 304 above the ear support plate 202. When maintenance of the equipment is required, the explosion - proof cover plate 3 can be pushed down by holding the grip bar 301, and then lifted after reaching the bottom to achieve power - off and cover - opening, which can ensure maintenance safety. When an explosion or strong vibration occurs, the explosion - proof cover plate 3 can be pushed inward to open the cover for power - off, so as to prevent the problem of further loss caused by electric short - circuit fire when strong vibration or explosion occurs;
[0035] In the middle of the top plane of the explosion - proof cover plate 3, buffer rubber columns with an upward convex shape 302 are evenly installed at intervals; a "hui" - shaped fluorescent strip 303 is sleeved on the explosion - proof cover plate 3 outside the buffer rubber column 302. The buffer rubber column 302 can play a role in buffering and earthquake resistance, while the fluorescent strip 303 can play a role in guiding in the dark.
[0036] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, a sleeve 401 is fixedly installed at the lower middle part of the lower connecting seat 4; vertical grooves 402 are respectively opened at the front and rear ends of the sleeve 401; a wire-passing groove 403 is opened at the upper end of the sleeve 401 for leading out the wire.
[0037] Furthermore, according to embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the upper end of the mating terminal 5 is vertically slidably inserted into the fixed plate 501, which is fixedly installed at the upper section of the central hole 404; a baffle 502 is fixedly installed at the lower middle part of the mating terminal 5, the diameter of which is the same as the inner diameter of the upper section of the central hole 404; a spring B503 is fitted on the mating terminal 5 between the baffle 502 and the fixed plate 501; a cuboid-shaped directional sleeve 504 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mating terminal 5 through the wire groove 403, and a positive terminal connecting wire 505 connected to the mating terminal 5 passes through the directional sleeve 504; a positive terminal 506 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the mating terminal 5, the lower end of which is a truncated cone structure wider at the top and narrower at the bottom; a central hole 404 is opened in the middle of the sleeve 401, which is a two-section diameter-changing structure, with the diameter of the upper section of the central hole 404 being larger than that of the lower section. The outer end of the adaptive locking pin 6 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the groove 402. A locking rod 601 is vertically slidably sleeved in the adaptive locking pin 6. A lock head 602 is fixedly connected to the inner end of the locking rod 601. The inner end of the lock head 602 is a downwardly inclined slope structure. A spring C603 is fitted on the locking rod 601 outside the lock head 602. In the natural state, under the action of the spring B503 and the baffle 502, the docking terminal 5 can keep the negative terminal 203 in contact with the positive terminal 506 to ensure normal connection. When vibration or internal thrust occurs, the explosion-proof cover 3 drives the adaptive locking pin 6 to move down through the sleeve 401. The inner end of the lock head 602 moves along the movable shuttle 204. When it reaches the lowest position, it quickly disengages and unlocks under the action of the guide rod 304 and the spring A305. The negative terminal 203 separates from the positive terminal 506, realizing the safety protection of power-off separation. It is fast, effective, safe and convenient.
[0038] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:
[0039] During the use of the present invention, the negative terminal 203 is connected to the negative pole of the explosion-proof electrical appliance power supply main body 1, and the positive terminal 506 is对接ed to the positive pole connection wire of the explosion-proof electrical appliance power supply main body 1. In the natural state, under the action of the spring B503 and the retaining plate 502, the docking terminal 5 can ensure that the negative terminal 203 is always in contact with the positive terminal 506, guaranteeing normal connection. When vibration or internal thrust occurs, the explosion-proof cover plate 3 drives the adaptive locking column 6 to move downward through the sleeve 401, and the inner end of the lock head 602 moves along the movable shuttle 204. When reaching the lowest position, it quickly disengages and unlocks upward under the action of the guide rod 304 and the spring A305, and the negative terminal 203 is separated from the positive terminal 506. When encountering explosion thrust or external force, the lock head 602 will continue to move downward with the lower connection seat 4, and the lock head 602 will move downward along the movable shuttle 204. At this time, the lower connection seat 4 is in an active state, and the lower connection seat 4 moves upward. The lock head 602 pulls the movable shuttle 204 to move upward. After the upper end of the movable shuttle 204 is caught in the negative terminal 203 and the edge of the shuttle contacts the lower annular edge of the negative terminal 203, the lock head 602 slides past the movable shuttle 204 and the negative terminal 203 is in a disconnected state. In addition, buffer rubber columns 302 protruding upward are uniformly fixed in the middle of the top plane of the explosion-proof cover plate 3 at intervals; a fluorescent strip 303 in the shape of a "hui" character is sleeved on the explosion-proof cover plate 3 outside the buffer rubber columns 302. The buffer rubber columns 302 can play a role in buffering and earthquake resistance, and the fluorescent strip 303 can play a role in guiding in the dark.
[0040] Finally, it should be noted that when describing the positions of various components and their cooperation relationships, etc. in the present invention, usually one / a pair of components are taken as examples. However, those skilled in the art should understand that such positions, cooperation relationships, etc. are equally applicable to other components / other pairs of components.
