It can provide a safe environment for the motor to connect wires and cables to protect the wire connection points from the external environment, such as moisture, dust, etc., to ensure the stability and long-term reliability of the connection points and reduce the failure rate.
[0003] At present, the existing motor junction box is provided with an end cover and a box body. The end cover is fixedly connected to the top of the box body by bolts, and the wires are inserted on both sides of the box body.

[0019] The present application further provides that: the thickness of the reinforcement ring is greater than or equal to the thickness of the connecting ring.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer extension of the reinforcement ring can make it difficult for splashing water or mud to contact the reinforcement ring, and difficult to enter from the connection between the connecting ring and the reinforcement ring.
[0021] The present application further provides that: the machined surface roughness of the outer surfaces of the junction box cover and the reinforcement ring is within the range of Ra3.2-6.3μm.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the machining surface roughness of the outer surface of the junction box cover and the reinforcement ring is within Ra3.2-6.3μm, which can improve the friction between the outer surface of the connecting ring and the inner surface of the reinforcement ring, and is also more suitable for most processing methods, thereby improving the flexibility of producing parts.
[0023] In summary, this application has the following beneficial effects:
[0024] In the present application, when splashing water or mud and sand come into contact with the junction box cover and the junction box seat, the reinforcement ring covers the outer surface of the connecting ring on the top of the junction box seat.

At the same time, the surrounding sealing component adds a barrier layer on one side between the reinforcement ring and the connecting ring. The two barrier layers not only effectively prevent splashing water or mud and sand from entering the interior of the junction box, but also reduce the risk of insulation problems of the wires.

[0031] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 5 This application is described in further detail.
[0032] Embodiment 1:

The terminal box cover 1 is fixedly connected to the top of the terminal box seat 2 by bolts 3. The bottom edge of the terminal box cover 1 is integrally formed with a reinforcement ring 10, and the top edge of the terminal box seat 2 is integrally formed with a connecting ring 20. The top of the connecting ring 20 abuts against the bottom of the terminal box cover 1, and the inner side of the reinforcement ring 10 abuts against the outer surface of the connecting ring 20. The inner side of the reinforcement ring 10 covers the connection between the terminal box cover 1 and the side of the terminal box seat 2, so that splashing water and mud and sand are difficult to enter the terminal box seat 2 from the side. A sealing groove 21 is opened on the top of the connecting ring 20 to strengthen A sealing component 4 is provided at the bottom of the fixing ring 10, and the sealing component 4 is used to fix the connecting ring 20 and the reinforcement ring 10, and to further strengthen the sealing of the connection between the connecting ring 20 and the reinforcement ring 10. After the sealing component 4 is clamped in the sealing groove 21, the surrounding sealing component 4 adds a barrier layer on one side between the reinforcement ring 10 and the connecting ring 20, which can further block the splashing water or mud from entering the junction box cover 1, and try to avoid insulation failure of the wires. Specifically, when producing the junction box cover 1 and the junction box seat 2, the connection seam between the junction box cover 1 and the junction box seat 2 should be between 0.3-0.7mm, and the sealing component 4 can be made of rubber.
[0034] Furthermore, the sealing assembly 4 includes an insert 40, a first fixing strip 41 is integrally formed at the top of the insert 40 near the side of the reinforcement ring 10, a second fixing strip 42 is integrally formed at the bottom of the insert 40 near the side of the reinforcement ring 10, a first fixing groove is provided at the bottom of the junction box cover 1, the first fixing strip 41 is snapped into the first connection groove, a second fixing groove is provided at the bottom of the connecting ring 20 located at the sealing groove 21, the second fixing strip 42 is snapped into the second fixing groove, thereby realizing the connection and reinforcement of the junction box cover 1 and the junction box seat 2, the first fixing strip 41, the second fixing strip 42 and the insert 40 form a barrier layer, if splashing water or mud and sand enters the connection seam between the junction box cover 1 and the junction box seat 2, foreign matter can be blocked to a certain extent.
[0035] Furthermore, a third fixing strip 43 is integrally formed on the top of the insert 40 away from the reinforcement ring 10, and a fourth fixing strip 44 is integrally formed on the bottom of the insert 40 away from the reinforcement ring 10. A first groove 45 is provided at the top of the insert 40 between the first fixing strip 41 and the third fixing strip 43, and a second groove 46 is provided at the bottom of the insert 40 between the second fixing strip 42 and the fourth fixing strip 44. If splashing water or mud passes through the barrier layer formed by the first fixing strip 41, the second fixing strip 42 and the insert 40, the first groove 45 and the second groove 46 can extend the entry distance of water and mud, and the second barrier layer formed by the third fixing strip 43, the fourth fixing strip 44 and the insert 40 can further block the water or mud.
[0036] In addition, a sealing ring 5 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rod head of the bolt 3, and the bottom of the sealing ring 5 abuts against the top of the junction box cover 1. The sealing ring 5 blocks splashing water or mud before touching the connection seam between the rod head of the bolt 3 and the junction box cover 1, thereby reducing the possibility of splashing water or mud entering the junction box seat 2 from the connection seam between the rod head of the bolt 3 and the junction box cover 1. In this embodiment, the sealing ring 5 is made of rubber.
[0037] Furthermore, a wire outlet 6 is opened on one side of the junction box seat 2, and a protective ring 7 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the wire outlet 6 of the junction box seat 2. In the present embodiment, the protective ring 7 is made of rubber, which can make the connection between the wires inserted in the protective ring 7 and the junction box seat 2 tighter, thereby improving the overall waterproofness at the wire outlet 6.
[0038] Furthermore, the thickness of the reinforcement ring 10 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the connecting ring 20. Specifically, the thickness of the reinforcement ring 10 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the connecting ring 20, which is greater than or equal to 2-3 mm. The splashing water or mud from the side of the connection between the connecting ring 20 and the reinforcement ring 10 can be blocked by the extended part of the connecting ring 20, and the splashing water or mud is difficult to enter the junction box seat 2.
[0039] In addition, the machined surface roughness of the outer surfaces of the junction box cover 1 and the reinforcement ring 10 is in the range of Ra3.2-6.3μm. In the present embodiment, Ra4μm is selected. Therefore, while the friction between the outer surface of the connecting ring 20 and the inner surface of the reinforcement ring 10 can be improved, it is also more suitable for most processing methods. Therefore, a variety of production methods can be used. In the present embodiment, steel plate stamping technology is used for processing and forming. In another embodiment, steel plate welding technology is used for processing and forming.

When the splashing water or mud enters from the connecting seam at the bottom of the reinforcement ring 10 and the connecting ring 20, the barrier layer formed by the first fixing bar 41, the second fixing bar 42 and the embedding member 40 can block the splashing water or mud again. If the splashing water or mud enters from the barrier layer formed by the first fixing bar 41, the second fixing bar 42 and the embedding member 40, it may stay on the groove wall of the first groove 45 and the second groove 46, or be blocked again by the third fixing bar 43, the fourth fixing bar 44 and the embedding member 40.
[0041] Embodiment 2:

In this embodiment, the sealing component 4 includes a cylindrical plug 47, and a connecting column 48 is integrally formed on the top of the cylindrical plug 47. The top of the connecting column 48 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the junction box cover 1. A cylindrical groove is provided on the top of the connecting ring 20, and the cylindrical plug 47 is snapped into the cylindrical groove. The cylindrical plug 47 connects and reinforces the reinforcement ring 10 and the connecting ring 20, and at the same time forms a barrier layer with the connecting column 48, so that it is difficult for splashing water or mud to pass through the cylindrical plug 47 and the connecting column 48 into the junction box seat 2.
[0043] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the junction box cover 1 and the reinforcement ring 10 are produced by plastic compression molding.
[0044] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
