[0031] The following will be combined with the appendix Figure 1-9 This invention will be described in detail, and the technical solutions in the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this invention.
[0032] Please see Figure 1-5The enhanced security modular meter box of the present invention includes a meter box body 1 and a door 2 installed at the front end of the meter box body 1. A heat dissipation groove 3 is provided on the side of the meter box body 1, and a locking frame 12 is provided at the front end of the meter box body 1. A lock cylinder 21 on the door 2 engages and locks with the inner edge of the locking frame 12 after rotation. An installation mechanism 11 is installed inside the meter box body 1. The installation mechanism 11 includes a back plate 111 installed inside the meter box body 1. A slot strip 112 is provided at the front end of the back plate 111, and a locking strip 112 engages and installs a... Circuit breaker 113; The rear end of circuit breaker 113 is engaged with the front end of slot strip 112 via a snap-fit seat 1131, and an acrylic protective plate 132 is installed at the front end of circuit breaker 113. The acrylic protective plate 132 has a hollow slot embedded in the middle, and the acrylic protective plate 132 is engaged with the front end of circuit breaker 113 via the hollow slot. The height of acrylic protective plate 132 is higher than that of circuit breaker 113. Acrylic protective plate 132 is located at the front end of the live screw of the terminal of circuit breaker 113, and isolates and blocks the live screw.
[0033] The front end of the box door 2 is provided with a flip-up cover plate, and the cover plate is provided with a pressure plate frame 22 at the rear end of the box door 2. When the box door 2 is closed, the flip-up cover plate is located in front of the circuit breaker 113, and the pressure plate frame 22 presses down on the front surface of the acrylic protective plate 132 at the front end of the circuit breaker 113.
[0034] It should be further explained that a silicone pad is also provided on the surface of the pressure plate frame 22. By adhering the silicone pad to the front surface of the acrylic protective plate 132, the anti-slip performance of the pressure plate frame 22 and the acrylic protective plate 132 is improved. This prevents the pressure plate frame 22 from being unable to stably press the acrylic protective plate 132 after the door 2 is closed. It also improves the position of the acrylic protective plate 132 at the front end of the live screw located at the terminal of the circuit breaker 113, and provides stable isolation and blocking for the live screw. This prevents non-professionals from touching the live screw of the terminal when operating the circuit breaker 113, which could lead to a serious electric shock accident.
[0035] The acrylic protective plate 132 has a positioning tube 1321 fixedly installed at the rear end, and a support rod 1322 is inserted into the rear end of the positioning tube 1321. The rear end of the support rod 1322 is inserted into the groove set at the front end of the slot strip 112.
[0036] It should be noted that there are two positioning tubes 1321 and two support rods 1322. The two support rods 1322 are inserted into the grooves supporting the front end of the slot strip 112 to improve the stability of the acrylic protective plate 132 fixed to the front end of the circuit breaker 113 and prevent the acrylic protective plate 132 from falling off the front end of the circuit breaker 113 due to vibration caused by contact between the box door 2 and the meter box 1 when the box door 2 is closed.
[0037] A flap 23 is also provided in the viewing window position of the door 2, and the flap 23 can be flipped up and down. When the door 2 is closed, the flap 23 is in front of the electricity meter, and the data of the electricity meter can be viewed through the viewing window.
[0038] Please see Figure 6-9 A meter mounting base 116 is installed on the front surface of the back plate 111. The mounting back plate 1161 on the meter mounting base 116 is fixed to the front surface of the back plate 111 by screws. An edge support plate 1162 is provided on the front surface of the mounting back plate 1161. The meter is placed inside the mounting back plate 1161 and the edge support plate 1162. A conductive mechanism 1165 is engaged and installed inside the edge support plate 1162. An embedded card plate 1651 on the conductive mechanism 1165 is installed inside the edge support plate 1162. The edge bottom of the embedded card plate 1651 is supported by an extension support plate 1621 provided inside the edge support plate 1162.
[0039] The conductive mechanism 1165 also includes a terminal block 1652, a locking bolt 1653, a wire inlet 1654, a contact plate 1655, a spring 1656, and a conductive rod 1657. The terminal block 1652 is fixed to the bottom of the embedded card plate 1651. The locking bolt 1653 is threaded inside the terminal block 1652. The locking bolt 1653 locks and fixes the wire that enters the wiring cavity of the terminal block 1652 through the wire inlet 1654. The wire abuts against the bottom of the contact plate 1655, and the spring 1656 is welded to the upper end of the contact plate 1655. Both the contact plate 1655 and the spring 1656 are located inside the terminal block 1652. The upper end of the spring 1656 is welded to the bottom of the conductive rod 1657 located at the top of the embedded card plate 1651. The conductive rod 1657 is inserted and installed at the lower end of the meter's internal wiring terminal.
[0040] It should be further explained that there are two extension support plates 1621. The extension support plates 1621 on both sides can stably support the embedded card plate 1651 inside the edge support plate 1162. The bottom of the edge support plate 1162 is hollow. With the support of the embedded card plate 1651, the terminal block 1652 passes through the hollow at the bottom of the edge support plate 1162. The locking support of the extension support plate 1621 on the embedded card plate 1651 facilitates the entire conductive mechanism 1165 to move upward from inside the edge support plate 1162. This gives the terminal block 1652 a larger wiring operation space, which makes it easier for the wires on the circuit breaker 113, neutral terminal 114 and power switch 115 to be connected to the wire inlet 1654. This avoids the inconvenience of wiring the circuit breaker 113, neutral terminal 114 and power switch 115 to the meter due to the narrow operating space. Convenient wiring operation can improve the firmness of the wiring.
[0041] The two sides of the contact plate 1655 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the wiring cavity of the terminal block 1652 to ensure that the contact plate 1655 moves only in the vertical direction after the wire is pressed, and maintains stable contact with the wire.
[0042] The card slot strip 112 is also provided with a neutral wire terminal 114 and a power switch 115. The circuit breaker 113, the neutral wire terminal 114 and the power switch 115 are all connected to the meter inside the terminal block 1652 through wires.
[0043] A grounding terminal 117 is also provided on the left end of the front surface of the back plate 111. The grounding terminal 117 is connected to the meter box 1, the back plate 111 and the card slot strip 112 respectively through wires to realize the overall grounding of the meter box 1 and the internal back plate 111 and card slot strip 112.
[0044] A positioning groove plate 1163 is provided on both sides of the front end of the edge support plate 1162, and a connector 1164 is inserted between the inner sides of the two positioning groove plates 1163. The two positioning groove plates 1163 and the connector 1164 are on the same plane.
[0045] The connector 1164 consists of a connector plate 1641, a locking plate 1642, a threaded hole 1643, and a locking rod 1644. The connector plate 1641 is inserted into the inner side of two positioning slot plates 1163 on both sides, and a locking plate 1642 is provided at the upper end of the connector plate 1641. The locking plate 1642 has a threaded hole 1643 through it. The locking rod 1644 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 1643, and the rear end of the locking rod 1644 abuts against the lower end of the front surface of the meter installed inside the edge support plate 1162.
[0046] It should be further explained that there are two locking plates 1642, and the two locking plates 1642 are an integrated structure that is adjacent to each other on the left and right. An even number of threaded holes 1643 are provided on the locking plates 1642. The locking rod 1644 is screwed inside the threaded holes 1643, so that the locking rod 1644 can pass through the inside of the locking plate 1642 and move backward, thereby adjusting the lower end of the front surface of the meter to improve the firmness of the meter installed on the inner side of the edge support plate 1162.
[0047] The mounting backplate 1161 has a locking groove 1166 at the top center, and a pressing plate 1167 is mounted on the upper front surface of the mounting backplate 1161. The locking block at the rear end of the pressing plate 1167 is engaged and installed inside the locking groove 1166. The pressing plate 1167 abuts against the top of the meter mounted inside the edge support plate 1162.
[0048] This invention provides an enhanced safety modular meter box through improvements, the working principle of which is as follows;
[0049] First, open the door 2 of the meter box 1. Then, snap the circuit breaker 113, neutral wire terminal 114 and power switch 115 onto the slot strip 112. Adjust the installation position of the neutral wire terminal 114 and power switch 115 according to the wiring orientation. The position of the circuit breaker 113 needs to be fixed to ensure that the rear end of the support rod 1322 can be inserted into the groove reserved in the slot strip 112. After the circuit breaker 113 is installed, install the acrylic protective plate 132 on the front end of the circuit breaker 113.
[0050] Second, the upper end of the wire is inserted into the terminal block 1652 through the wire port 1654, and the upper end of the wire is locked and fixed inside the terminal block 1652 by tightening the locking bolt 1653. At the same time, the upper end of the wire contacts the contact plate 1655, and the spring 1656 applies a downward elastic force to the contact plate 1655 to improve the firmness of the contact between the upper end of the wire and the contact plate 1655. After all the wires are connected, the conductive mechanism 1165 is placed into the edge support plate 1162. The embedded card plate 1651 is supported by the extension support plate 1621. Then, the lower end of the wire is connected to the corresponding circuit breaker 113, neutral terminal 114 and power switch 115.
[0051] Third, the meter is installed inside the edge support plate 1162. At this time, the conductive rod 1657 is inserted into the lower end of the meter, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the meter and the circuit breaker 113, the neutral wire terminal 114 and the power switch 115. The locking rod 1644 passes through the locking plate 1642 and moves backward to adjust and fix the lower end of the front surface of the meter. Then, the rear end of the pressing plate 1167 is inserted into the locking groove 1166, so that the pressing plate 1167 abuts and fixes the top of the meter.
[0052] Fourth, after all installation is completed, close the box door 2. At this time, the pressure plate frame 22 on the inside of the box door 2 will be in contact with the front end of the acrylic protective plate 132. When the user of the meter in the meter box 1 needs to leave for a long time, the circuit breaker 113 should be turned off to prevent fire caused by electrical faults when no one is around. At the same time, it can also save standby power consumption. When turning off the circuit breaker 113, there is no need to open the box door 2. Just flip up the cover plate at the front of the box door 2. At this time, the circuit breaker 113 is exposed, and the acrylic protective plate 132 is at the front end of the circuit breaker 113. When the user lacks professional knowledge, when manually operating to turn off the circuit breaker 113, there will be no contact with the live screws of the circuit breaker 113 terminal, which greatly protects the safety of non-professionals.
