Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of explosion-proof, in particular to an explosion-proof distribution box. Background Art
[0002] Explosion-proof electrical appliances refer to a type of electrical equipment used in places where there are explosive gases and steam. Various explosive gases and steam are often encountered in chemical production. In places where these media are present, it is an important measure to ensure safe production and prevent explosions and fires by correctly selecting appropriate explosion-proof electrical appliances in accordance with relevant specifications, standards and regulations to prevent the explosion of the surrounding explosive mixture.
[0003] The utility model patent with patent number CN220233878U in the prior art discloses an explosion-proof and corrosion-resistant power distribution device, including an explosion-proof box and an explosion-proof cover, both of which are made of plastic material, and the fitting surface between the explosion-proof box and the explosion-proof cover is provided with two metal explosion-proof layers corresponding to each other, and the metal explosion-proof layers are fixed on the fitting surfaces at both ends of the explosion-proof box and the explosion-proof cover by a compression molding process, and the end surfaces of the metal explosion-proof layers that are fitted to each other are explosion-proof surfaces.
[0004] The above-mentioned power distribution device has the following disadvantages in actual use: 1. The explosion-proof box and the explosion-proof cover are fitted to each other, and the fitted end face is a flameproof surface. The power distribution device with such a flameproof surface belongs to Class IIB. IIB is suitable for non-lethal gas environments of ethane and contraction. Since its explosion-proof level is too low, it cannot be used in gas environments with hydrogen, acetylene and carbon disulfide, that is, it does not belong to Class IIC; 2. There are several dividing strips at the bottom of the inner cavity of the explosion-proof box. When installing electrical appliances in the explosion-proof box, it is necessary to place an additional mounting plate. As shown in the utility model with patent number CN217607268U, placing the mounting bottom plate makes the bottom of the inner cavity of the explosion-proof box flat, increases the contact area with the electrical appliances, and thus improves the heat dissipation performance. The additional installation bottom plate increases the number of components, making assembly and production more complicated; 3. The bottom of the outer wall of the explosion-proof box is a smooth plane. In order to ensure the explosion-proof performance of the explosion-proof box, it is necessary to ensure the bottom thickness. Since the bottom is a smooth plane, the bottom thickness is uniform, which leads to low heat dissipation performance of the explosion-proof box. Summary of the invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an explosion-proof distribution box in view of the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: an explosion-proof distribution box, comprising an explosion-proof box body, an explosion-proof cover body and a hinge assembly, wherein the explosion-proof box body and the explosion-proof cover body are both rectangular, the explosion-proof box body comprises a first body and a first edge surrounding the outer wall of the first body, a first chamber is provided in the first body, the inner wall of the first body extends upward to form a flameproof inner ring, the first body, the first edge and the flameproof inner ring are integrally formed, the explosion-proof cover body comprises a second body and a second edge surrounding the outer wall of the second body, the second body has a second chamber, the end face of the second edge facing the side of the explosion-proof box body is kept flush with the end face of the second body facing the side of the explosion-proof box body, the second body and the second edge are integrally formed, when the explosion-proof box body and the explosion-proof cover body are closed, the end face of the first edge is in contact with the end face of the second edge, the inner wall of the second body is in contact with the outer wall of the flameproof inner ring, and the first chamber and the second chamber form a flameproof cavity.
[0007] The utility model with the above characteristics: the explosion-proof box body and the explosion-proof cover body are arranged in a rectangular shape, and the explosion-proof cavity formed by the two when they are closed is also rectangular. Compared with the circular explosion-proof cavity of the same area, the rectangular explosion-proof cavity can accommodate more circuit breakers, thereby reducing the number of explosion-proof distribution boxes used; a flameproof inner ring is arranged on the explosion-proof box body, so that when the explosion-proof box body and the explosion-proof cover body are closed, the inner wall of the second body is in contact with the outer wall of the flameproof inner ring, and the part where the second body and the flameproof inner ring are in contact forms a flameproof surface. Compared with the flameproof surface formed by the end face of the explosion-proof box body and the explosion-proof cover body in the background technology, the setting of the flameproof inner ring has a sealing effect on the contact point between the first edge and the second edge, which can prevent the sparks generated by the explosion from directly drilling into the outside world, and the flameproof inner ring is in contact with the second body, so that sparks cannot drill out from between the two, thereby improving the flameproof performance and making the explosion-proof distribution box meet the ⅡC standard.

[0010] A further configuration of the utility model is that the width of the flameproof inner ring is greater than or equal to 25 mm.
[0011] The utility model with the above characteristics: the width of the explosion-proof inner ring determines the size of the explosion-proof surface area. If the width of the explosion-proof inner ring is less than 25mm, its explosion-proof effect cannot meet actual needs and the explosion-proof performance is poor. Only when the width of the explosion-proof inner ring is greater than or equal to 25mm can the explosion-proof effect be met.
[0012] A further configuration of the utility model is that the surface matching dimension between the outer wall of the flameproof inner ring and the inner wall of the second body is less than 0.15 mm.
[0013] The utility model with the above-mentioned characteristics: when an explosion occurs in the explosion-proof cavity, the generated sparks will drill out from the gap between the outer wall of the explosion-proof inner ring and the inner wall of the second body. In order to prevent the sparks from leaking out, the gap between the outer wall of the explosion-proof inner ring and the inner wall of the second body is controlled within 0.15mm, which can prevent the sparks from leaking out and ensure the explosion-proof performance of the explosion-proof distribution box.
[0014] A further configuration of the utility model is that the surface roughness between the outer wall of the flameproof inner ring and the inner wall of the second body is less than or equal to 3.2 μm.
[0015] The utility model with the above characteristics: when the surface roughness of the two is less than or equal to 3.2, the smoothness of the contact surface is guaranteed, so that the two fit more closely, which can effectively prevent gas leakage and ensure the explosion-proof effect; the smooth surface helps to improve the heat conduction efficiency and helps to dissipate heat from the box.
[0016] A further configuration of the utility model is that: a plurality of reinforcing ribs evenly distributed along the length direction are provided at the bottom of the outer periphery of the first body, and the length of the reinforcing ribs is kept the same as the width of the first body.
[0017] The utility model with the above-mentioned features can reduce the thickness of the bottom of the first body by arranging reinforcing ribs at intervals at the bottom of the first body, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation performance of the explosion-proof box.
[0018] A further configuration of the utility model is that the bottom of the first chamber is a flat plane on which a plurality of evenly distributed assembly holes are provided, an assembly hole reinforcement block is provided at the bottom of the outer periphery of the first body corresponding to the assembly hole, one end of the assembly hole extends toward the assembly hole reinforcement block, the height of the assembly hole reinforcement block is kept the same as the height of the reinforcement rib, and the two are integrally formed.
[0019] The utility model with the above-mentioned characteristics: the bottom of the first chamber is directly set as a flat plane, without the need to additionally set up a mounting base plate, thereby reducing the number of components, improving assembly efficiency and production efficiency, and reducing production costs; an assembly hole reinforcement block adapted to the assembly hole is set at the bottom of the first body to enhance the connection strength when the electrical appliance is connected to the assembly hole.
[0020] A further configuration of the utility model is that: a plurality of mounting holes for bolts to pass through are evenly distributed on the second edge, a connecting hole reinforcement block is provided at the lower end surface of the first edge corresponding to the mounting holes, a connecting hole adapted to the mounting holes is provided in the connecting hole reinforcement block, and the explosion-proof box body and the explosion-proof cover body are connected by bolts.
[0021] The utility model with the above-mentioned characteristics: by arranging a connection hole reinforcement block at the lower end of the first edge for installing bolts, the connection strength and stability of the bolts are improved without increasing the overall thickness of the first edge, and at the same time, the force on the bolts is effectively dispersed, reducing the stress concentration caused by uneven force, thereby improving the connection strength between the explosion-proof box body and the explosion-proof cover body.
[0022] The utility model is further configured as follows: a plurality of evenly arranged reinforcing ribs are provided on the inner wall of the first body in the length direction, the head end of the reinforcing rib is flush with the end of the flameproof inner ring, and the tail end is connected to the bottom of the first body.
[0023] The utility model with the above characteristics: by arranging reinforcing ribs on the inner wall of the first body, the overall strength of the first chamber is improved, the stress distribution in the first chamber is made more uniform, so that it can withstand a greater load and prevent deformation or damage caused by internal electrical explosion.
[0024] A further configuration of the utility model is that the explosion-proof box and the explosion-proof cover are both made of aluminum alloy.
