Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of smart grid technology, specifically to a smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication modules and its deployment method. Background Technology

[0002] Smart grid distribution boxes are critical infrastructure supporting the underlying data sensing, transmission, and local control of smart grids. Their performance directly affects the operational reliability of the entire smart grid system. During the large-scale construction and renovation of smart grids, deploying integrated communication modules within distribution boxes has become an indispensable core component of smart grid equipment, in order to meet the stringent requirements of millisecond-level communication response and remote, precise control.

[0003] In existing smart grid distribution boxes, the physical installation of integrated communication modules mainly follows the traditional rail clip fixing method. This requires on-site workers to repeatedly tighten the clips of each communication module with a screwdriver to achieve physical fixation. However, this traditional deployment method for smart grid communication modules presents a challenge in actual smart grid engineering construction. Once the communication module is rigidly locked to the mounting rail, subsequent wiring adjustments or system expansion based on cable routing often require complete disassembly and repositioning and tightening of the entire module, impacting the efficiency of smart grid on-site deployment and subsequent operation and maintenance. Furthermore, because the communication modules integrated within smart grid distribution boxes have diverse functions and types, and the physical dimensions and widths of different devices vary significantly (e.g., various DTUs, industrial routers, and gateways), existing mounting plates often use large, uniformly sized integrated panels. To accommodate larger modules, this often results in low space utilization within the smart grid distribution box, over-occupying the already limited space. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication modules and a deployment method thereof, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication modules includes a box body, an incoming line communication integration chamber inside the box body, and a module deployment mechanism inside the incoming line communication integration chamber;

[0007] The module deployment organization includes:

[0008] Two opposing vertical arms and multiple horizontal arms located between the two vertical arms and distributed vertically, with the two ends of the horizontal arms being detachably connected to the two vertical arms respectively.

[0009] Multiple mounting plates for mounting communication modules are slidably mounted on the cross arm;

[0010] Multiple connecting plates with positioning structures located on one side of the cross arm and corresponding one-to-one with multiple mounting plates can be driven by the transmission structure to move synchronously. The connecting plates are also equipped with floating limit structures that cooperate with the mounting plates.

[0011] After the communication module is deployed, the positioning structure drives the connecting plate to move closer to the mounting plate, locking the connecting plate and the cross arm, and causing the floating limit structure to cooperate with the mounting plate and the transmission structure to disconnect, so that the mounting plate can move relative to the connecting plate.

[0012] The smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication modules as described above: the floating limiting structure includes two limiting blocks symmetrically arranged on the side of the connecting plate facing the mounting plate, and the limiting blocks are connected to the connecting plate through two sets of elastic telescopic rods.

[0013] As described above, the smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication modules has the following features: a first inclined surface is provided at one end of the limiting block facing the mounting plate; the mounting plate has protrusions that cooperate with the two limiting blocks; and two second inclined surfaces that cooperate with the first inclined surface are symmetrically provided at one end of the protrusions facing the connecting plate.

[0014] The smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication modules as described above: the transmission structure includes two locking blocks located on the side of the mounting plate and a frame connected to the connecting plate via a connecting arm;

[0015] The end of the card block is formed with a tapered portion, and a follower component is provided between the card block and the connecting plate. The follower component is triggered when the connecting plate moves close to the mounting plate, which can drive the card block to be pulled out of the frame.

[0016] The smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication module as described above: the follow-up component includes a transmission arm mounted on the connecting plate, a track provided on the mounting plate, and a follow-up frame slidably fitted on the track, the follow-up frame being connected to the card block;

[0017] The track is also slidably provided with a transmission block, which is also slidably connected to the transmission arm. A connecting rod is provided between the transmission block and the follower frame, and the two ends of the connecting rod are respectively hinged to the transmission block and the follower frame.

[0018] The smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication module as described above: the positioning structure includes a drive arm provided on the side of the horizontal arm through two sets of elastic elements, and a plurality of sliders are slidably fitted on one side of the drive arm toward the horizontal arm, and the plurality of sliders are respectively connected to a plurality of connecting plates;

[0019] The elastic element includes a guide post mounted on the cross arm, the guide post passing through the drive arm and slidably connected to the drive arm, a cylindrical spring sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide post, the two ends of the cylindrical spring being connected to the cross arm and the drive arm respectively, and two sets of threaded drive assemblies are also provided between the drive arm and the cross arm.

[0020] As described above, the smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication module includes a mounting plate mounted on the cross arm, a drive block slidably disposed within the mounting plate, and a lead screw rotatably mounted within the mounting plate and threadedly connected to the drive block. The drive block is connected to a lever, which abuts against the drive arm.

[0021] As described above, the smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication modules is provided with a strip brake pad on the side of the cross arm facing the connecting plate, and the connecting arm is also connected to a brake block that cooperates with the strip brake pad. When the connecting plate moves close to the mounting plate, the brake block fits with the strip brake pad, which can lock the connecting plate and the cross arm.

[0022] A method for deploying a communication module in a smart grid distribution box with a deployable integrated communication module includes the following steps:

[0023] Step 1: Adjust the vertical distribution of multiple horizontal arms according to the size of the communication module to be deployed;

[0024] Step two: Assemble the communication module onto the mounting plate;

[0025] Step 3: Adjust the horizontal position of the mounting plate, and then complete the wiring work;

[0026] Step four: The positioning structure drives the connecting plate closer to the mounting plate, the connecting plate locks with the cross arm, the floating limit structure provides elastic support for the mounting plate, the transmission structure is disconnected, allowing the communication module and the mounting plate to undergo horizontal elastic displacement in the length direction of the cross arm.

[0027] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0028] In actual deployment, for larger communication modules, staff can adjust the height of each cross arm according to the height of the communication module, and then adjust the height of the mounting plate on the cross arm according to the width of the communication module. This allows for deployment planning based on the actual shape of the communication module, effectively saving internal space and improving integration and compactness. For smaller communication modules, the communication module can be directly assembled onto the mounting plate, and then the position of the communication module can be adjusted by moving the mounting plate according to wiring requirements, making the deployment of the communication module more flexible and convenient.

[0029] Once the communication module is deployed according to the design requirements, the positioning structure drives the connecting plate to move closer to the mounting plate. Ultimately, the connecting plate and the cross arm remain relatively stationary, and the elastic telescopic rod flexibly clamps the mounting plate through the limiting block. Therefore, it can achieve vibration reduction for the communication module, absorb the continuous horizontal pulling force generated by cable bending and cable tray compression on the communication module interface, and effectively filter the external mechanical stress caused by thermal expansion and contraction of the distribution box outdoors by allowing the communication module to undergo slight horizontal elastic displacement along the length of the cross arm. This avoids the risk of signal interruption caused by fatigue fracture of communication terminal solder joints and poor contact of network port or fiber optic interface due to long-term stress on the joint, thus ensuring the stable operation of the smart grid.

[0041] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0042] Furthermore, elements in this invention are referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another element, which may be directly on the other element or may also include an intervening element. When an element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or may also include an intervening element. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only possible implementations.

[0043] Please see Figures 1-10 In this embodiment, a smart grid distribution box with deployable integrated communication modules includes a box body 1, an incoming line communication integration chamber 103 is provided inside the box body 1, and a module deployment mechanism is provided inside the incoming line communication integration chamber 103.

[0044] The module deployment organization includes:

[0045] Two opposing vertical arms 2 and multiple horizontal arms 3 located between the two vertical arms 2 and distributed vertically, with the two ends of the horizontal arms 3 being detachably connected to the two vertical arms 2 respectively.

[0046] Multiple mounting plates 4 for mounting communication modules are slidably mounted on the cross arm 3;

[0047] Multiple connecting plates 12, with positioning structures located on one side of the cross arm 3 and corresponding one-to-one with multiple mounting plates 4, allow the mounting plates 4 to drive the connecting plates 12 to move synchronously via a transmission structure. The connecting plates 12 are also equipped with floating limit structures that cooperate with the mounting plates 4.

[0048] After the communication module is deployed, the positioning structure drives the connecting plate 12 to move closer to the mounting plate 4, locking the connecting plate 12 with the cross arm 3, and causing the floating limit structure to cooperate with the mounting plate 4 and the transmission structure to disconnect, so that the mounting plate 4 can move relative to the connecting plate 12.

[0049] In this embodiment, it should be noted that the enclosure 1 is also provided with a capacitor chamber 101, a cable outlet chamber 102, and a metering chamber 104. The capacitor chamber 101 is mainly used to install reactive power compensation capacitors and supporting components such as reactors and contactors. The cable outlet chamber 102 is the outlet area for the distribution box cables to be transmitted outwards. The metering chamber 104 is the dedicated installation area for smart meters. This application will not elaborate further on this.

[0050] Secondly, the connection between the horizontal arm 3 and the two vertical arms 2 can be fastened with bolts. When deploying the actual communication module, the staff can adjust the height of each vertical arm 2 according to the actual deployment needs to accommodate communication modules of different sizes, thereby saving space inside the box.

[0051] In addition, the mounting plate 4 is provided with multiple mounting holes, which facilitate the installation of the communication module onto the mounting plate 4 by the staff when deploying the communication module.

[0052] As a further embodiment of the present invention, please refer again. Figure 9 The floating limiting structure includes two limiting blocks 14 symmetrically arranged on the side of the connecting plate 12 facing the mounting plate 4. The limiting blocks 14 are connected to the connecting plate 12 through two sets of elastic telescopic rods 13.

[0053] Furthermore, the limiting block 14 has a first inclined surface 1401 at one end facing the mounting plate 4, and the mounting plate 4 has a protrusion 15 that cooperates with the two limiting blocks 14. The protrusion 15 has two second inclined surfaces 1501 that cooperate with the first inclined surface 1401 at one end facing the connecting plate 12.

[0054] In this embodiment, after the communication modules are deployed according to the design requirements, i.e., all communication modules are installed and wired, the positioning structure drives the connecting plate 12 to move closer to the mounting plate 4. During this process, the first inclined surface 1401 and the second inclined surface 1501 abut, causing the elastic telescopic rod 13 to retract, compressing its internal spring. After the first inclined surface 1401 and the second inclined surface 1501 disengage, the two sides of the protrusion 15 respectively abut against the sides of the two limiting blocks 14. Then the transmission structure is disconnected, and the connecting plate 12 is locked to the cross arm 3. Finally, after the communication modules are deployed, the connecting plate... The mounting plate 4 is flexibly clamped by the elastic telescopic rod 13 through the limiting block 14, which keeps the communication module relatively stationary. Therefore, it can achieve the vibration reduction effect of the communication module, absorb the continuous horizontal pulling force generated by cable bending and cable tray compression on the communication module interface, and effectively filter the external mechanical stress caused by thermal expansion and contraction of the distribution box outdoors by allowing the communication module to undergo slight horizontal elastic displacement in the length direction of the cross arm 3. This avoids the risk of signal interruption caused by long-term stress on the connector, such as fatigue fracture of communication terminal solder joints and poor contact of network port or fiber optic interface, thus providing a guarantee for the stable operation of the smart grid.

[0055] As a further embodiment of the present invention, please refer again. Figure 7 , Figure 8 as well as Figure 10 The transmission structure includes two locking blocks 21 located on the side of the mounting plate 4 and a frame 24 connected to the connecting plate 12 via a connecting arm 23; the end of the locking block 21 is formed with a tapered portion 2101, and a follower component is provided between the locking block 21 and the connecting plate 12. The follower component is triggered when the connecting plate 12 moves close to the mounting plate 4, which can drive the locking block 21 to be pulled out of the frame 24.

[0056] With attachment Figure 8 Taking the state shown as an example, at this time, the card block 21 is located in the frame 24. When the staff adjusts the position of the communication module according to the deployment design requirements, that is, moves the mounting plate 4 along the length direction of the horizontal arm 3, the card block 21 can drive the connecting plate 12 to move synchronously through the frame 24.

[0057] When the connecting plate 12 moves close to the mounting plate 4, the follower component moves, causing the locking block 21 to move down. After the first inclined surface 1401 and the second inclined surface 1501 disengage, the locking block 21 is completely pulled out of the frame 24. At this time, the connecting plate 12 and the cross arm 3 are locked, and the communication module and the mounting plate 4 can only make a small range of elastic floating in the length direction of the cross arm 3.

[0058] The follower assembly includes a transmission arm 16 mounted on the connecting plate 12, a track 19 mounted on the mounting plate 4, and a follower frame 20 slidably fitted on the track 19. The follower frame 20 is connected to the locking block 21. A transmission block 17 is also slidably mounted on the track 19. The transmission block 17 is also slidably connected to the transmission arm 16. A connecting rod 18 is provided between the transmission block 17 and the follower frame 20. The two ends of the connecting rod 18 are respectively hinged to the transmission block 17 and the follower frame 20.

[0059] In detail, during the process of the positioning structure driving the connecting plate 12 to move closer to the mounting plate 4, the transmission arm 16 drives the transmission block 17 to push the follower frame 20 to slide downward on the track 19 through the connecting rod 18, so that the locking block 21 can be pulled out from the frame 24.

[0060] It should also be noted that by setting the locking block 21 and the frame 24, when the staff adjusts the position of the communication module, the locking block 21 is located in the frame 24, which can ensure that the mounting plate 4 and the connecting plate 12 remain relatively stationary. If the locking block 21 and the frame 24 are not set, in the initial state, the limiting block 14 provides elastic support for the mounting plate 4. Then, when the staff moves the mounting plate 4, it is easy to cause the elastic telescopic rod 13 on one side to move, thereby causing a horizontal pulling force on the communication module interface. By setting the locking block 21 and the frame 24, the limiting block 14 does not intervene when adjusting the horizontal position of the mounting plate 4. After the limiting block 14 intervenes, the locking block 21 and the frame 24 separate, ensuring the consistency of the elastic support effect of the mounting plate 4 corresponding to each communication module after the communication module is deployed.

[0061] Please refer to it again. Figure 5 and Figure 6 The positioning structure includes a drive arm 6 provided on the side of the cross arm 3 via two sets of elastic elements. The drive arm 6 has a plurality of sliders 5 slidably fitted on one side of the cross arm 3. The plurality of sliders 5 are respectively connected to the plurality of connecting plates 12.

[0062] The elastic element includes a guide post 7 mounted on the cross arm 3, which passes through the drive arm 6 and is slidably connected to it. A cylindrical spring 8 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide post 7, and the two ends of the cylindrical spring 8 are respectively connected to the cross arm 3 and the drive arm 6. Two sets of threaded drive assemblies are also provided between the drive arm 6 and the cross arm 3. The threaded drive assembly includes an assembly plate 9 mounted on the cross arm 3, a drive block 11 slidably disposed within the assembly plate 9, and a lead screw 10 rotatably mounted within the assembly plate 9 and threadedly connected to the drive block 11. The drive block 11 is connected to a lever 1101, which abuts against the drive arm 6.

[0063] After the communication module is deployed, the staff can rotate the lead screw 10 so that the drive block 11 engages with the lead screw 10 and moves toward the horizontal arm 3. Correspondingly, the paddle 1101 pushes the drive arm 6 to move toward the horizontal arm 3 on the guide post 7. The column spring 8 is compressed until the two limit blocks 14 complete the elastic limit of the mounting plate 4 through the protrusion 15 and the locking block 21 is pulled out from the frame 24.

[0064] It should be emphasized that, compared with the spring inside the elastic telescopic rod 13, the elastic coefficient of the cylindrical spring 8 is larger. Therefore, when the communication module needs to be redeployed, the operator only needs to rotate the lead screw 10 to move the drive block 11 away from the cross arm 3. The cylindrical spring 8 rebounds, which can cause the components to reset, that is, the two limit blocks 14 separate from the protrusion 15. As for the locking block 21, its end is formed with a tapered part 2101. Even if the frame 24 and the locking block 21 are misaligned to a certain extent due to the horizontal force between the communication module and the mounting plate 4, the setting of the tapered part 2101 can ensure that the locking block 21 can smoothly re-enter the frame 24.

[0065] Please refer to it again. Figure 5 and Figure 8 The cross arm 3 is also provided with a strip brake pad 22 on the side facing the connecting plate 12. The connecting arm 23 is also connected to a brake block 25 that cooperates with the strip brake pad 22. When the connecting plate 12 moves close to the mounting plate 4, the brake block 25 fits with the strip brake pad 22, which can lock the connecting plate 12 and the cross arm 3.

[0066] Furthermore, the principle of the strip brake pad 22 and the brake block 25 is similar to that of automobile braking. After the communication module is deployed, the operator needs to rotate the lead screw 10 until the lead screw 10 can no longer rotate, thereby ensuring that the brake block 25 and the strip brake pad 22 are in contact. Subsequently, the connecting plate 12 cannot move, and the locking block 21 has been removed from the frame 24, allowing the communication module and the mounting plate 4 to undergo a small horizontal elastic displacement in the length direction of the cross arm 3.

[0067] In actual deployment, for larger communication modules, staff can adjust the height of each cross arm 3 according to the height of the communication module, and then adjust the height of the mounting plate 4 on the cross arm 3 according to the width of the communication module. This allows for deployment planning based on the actual shape of the communication module, effectively saving internal space and improving integration and compactness. For smaller communication modules, the communication module can be directly assembled onto the mounting plate 4, and then the position of the communication module can be adjusted by moving the mounting plate 4 according to wiring requirements, making the deployment of the communication module more flexible and convenient.

[0068] As a further aspect of the present invention, a method for deploying the communication module of a smart grid distribution box with a deployable integrated communication module is also proposed, comprising the following steps:

[0069] Step 1: Adjust the vertical distribution of multiple horizontal arms 3 according to the size of the communication module to be deployed;

[0070] Step 2: Assemble the communication module onto mounting plate 4;

[0071] Step 3: Adjust the horizontal position of mounting plate 4, and then complete the wiring work;

[0072] Step four: The positioning structure drives the connecting plate 12 to move closer to the mounting plate 4. The connecting plate 12 is locked to the cross arm 3. The floating limit structure provides elastic support for the mounting plate 4. The transmission structure is disconnected, allowing the communication module and the mounting plate 4 to undergo horizontal elastic displacement in the length direction of the cross arm 3.

[0073] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from its spirit or essential characteristics. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims are intended to be included within the present invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0074] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
