[0024] like Figure 2As shown, the flameproof box 1 has a built-in central operation control module, which integrates the whole vehicle control function module, the whole vehicle low-voltage digital power distribution function module, the remote monitoring function module and the electrical isolation function module, and is used for whole vehicle control, precise power supply management, networked mine digital management center and remote program upgrade. The central operation control module can be functionally split into multiple functional modules, that is, split into multiple circuit boards, which are arranged in the control cavity and wiring cavity of the flameproof box, and the multiple circuit boards are arranged in layers up and down, which can effectively reduce the layout size of the internal space of the cavity, and achieve the miniaturization and lightweight design of the flameproof box structure.

[0025] The following specific embodiment proposes a functional split design scheme that complies with the national standards for flameproof and intrinsically safe electrical equipment and takes into account the miniaturization and lightweight design of the flameproof box structure. Specifically, it is split into four functional modules: vehicle control function module 2, vehicle low-voltage digital power distribution function module 3, remote monitoring function module 4 and electrical isolation function module 5. The modules are arranged in the control chamber 11 and the wiring chamber 12 of the flameproof box 1 and arranged in upper and lower layers. The flameproof box 1 is divided into a control chamber 11 and a wiring chamber 12 by a partition 7.

[0027] The flameproof box 1 adopts a split chamber design, which is divided into two chambers: a control chamber 11 and a wiring chamber 12;

[0028] The flameproof flange surfaces of the control chamber 11 and the wiring chamber 12 of the flameproof housing 1 are designed in an integrated manner, thereby simplifying the product structure and cost.

[0029] The upper cover of the control chamber 11 and the wiring chamber 12 is integrated, that is, the flameproof box upper cover 14, which reduces the number of product parts and costs. The flameproof flange surface of the flameproof box 1 and the flameproof box upper cover 14 form a first flameproof joint surface.

[0030] The flameproof box upper cover 14 is provided with an annular groove and an O-ring to ensure the airtightness of the first flameproof joint surface;

[0031] Among them, there is a partition 7 between the control chamber 11 and the wiring chamber 12 of the flameproof box 1, and a through hole is set on the partition 7. The flameproof electrical connection between the control chamber 11 and the wiring chamber 12 is completed by installing the flameproof terminal 16. The inner surface of the through hole of the partition 7 and the cylindrical installation surface of the flameproof terminal 16 constitute a second flameproof joint surface.

[0032] The internal structure of the explosion-proof box 1 uses mechanical isolation to isolate the built-in central operation control module from the ground.

[0041] The vehicle low-voltage digital power distribution function module 3 is a non-intrinsically safe high-power function module and must be installed in the control cavity 11 of the flameproof box 1. The flameproof electrical connection between the control cavity 11 and the wiring cavity 12 is completed through the flameproof wiring terminal 16 wiring harness.

[0048] Among them, the vehicle control function module 2 is connected with the vehicle low-voltage digital power distribution function module 3, the remote monitoring function module 4 and the electrical isolation function module 5 through the internal wiring harness connector.

[0049] The remote monitoring function module 4 is an intrinsically safe low-power electrical component and can be installed in a control cavity or a wiring cavity. In this example, in order to reduce the number and cost of flameproof terminals 16 on the partition 7 between cavities, it is chosen to be installed in the wiring cavity 12 of the flameproof box 1.
