[0004] However, the existing electric meter boxes are usually placed outdoors, and most of them do not have a good rainproof structure. On rainy days, rain drops on the top of the box and then penetrates into the box through the gap of the closed door, causing water accumulation or moisture inside the box, which can damage the electronic components inside the meter box and affect the normal operation of the meter box. In addition, the electronic components will conduct electricity when exposed to water, and passers-by may be injured if they accidentally touch the meter box, which is dangerous.
[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present application proposes an outdoor electric meter box with rainproof function. Utility Model Content
[0006] The utility model aims to provide an outdoor electric meter box with a rainproof function, which is mainly used to solve the problem that most existing electric meter boxes do not have a good rainproof structure, and rainwater will enter the electric meter box on rainy days to damage the electronic components, thereby affecting the normal use of the electric meter box.
[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0008] The top of the lifting paddle shifters is a key component of the present invention, and the key is to connect the lifting paddle shifters to the lifting paddle shifters at the bottom of the lifting paddle shifters, so that the lifting paddle shifters can be effectively prevented from slidably connecting the lifting paddle shifters.
[0009] The working principle and beneficial effects of the utility model:
[0010] 1. Working principle: When encountering the rainy season, the rotating plate can be unfolded by rotating it, and then the handle is pulled toward the rotating plate to move the slide bar toward the fixed block. When the slide bar is fully inserted into the circular groove on one side of the fixed block, the limit assembly set on the outer wall of the slide bar can prevent the slide bar from sliding out of the circular groove, thereby playing a better limiting and fixing role for the rotating plate. When the rainy season is over, the rotating plate can be rotated in the opposite direction to be folded and stored, so that the electric meter box occupies less space when placed.
[0011] 2. Beneficial effects: The gable roof set on the top of the box body can provide better protection for the box body in rainy weather, thereby providing better waterproofing for the box body. In the rainy season, the rotating plates set on both sides of the gable roof can be unfolded to further prevent rainwater from entering the box body, thereby making the waterproofing effect of the meter box better. After the rotating plates are turned open, they are fixed by the limit assembly, which can make the meter box more stable when in use.
[0012] Preferably, the limit assembly includes a symmetrical cavity formed at one end of the outer wall of the sliding rod away from the fixed shell, a wedge block is slidably connected to the inside of the cavity, a plurality of second springs are fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the cavity, one end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the wedge block, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity, the top and bottom of the fixed block are provided with through grooves matching the wedge block, and a pressing block is slidably connected to the inside of the through groove, one side of the pressing block extends out of the fixed block, and the other side is set against the wedge block. After the rotating plate is unfolded, the handle is pulled in the direction close to the rotating plate to move the sliding rod toward the fixed block. After the sliding rod contacts the inner wall of the circular groove, the wedge block is When the wedge block is completely out of the through slot, the slide bar will be reset under the action of the telescopic rod and the first spring. At this time, the rotary plate can be rotated to fold and store it, making the electric meter box more convenient to use.
[0013] Preferably, the top of the rotating plate is fixedly connected to one side away from the gable top with symmetrical magnets, and the top of the gable top is fixedly connected to an iron sheet attracted to the magnet. When the staff rotates the rotating plate to the top of the gable top, the magnet on the rotating plate will be attracted to the iron sheet on the gable top, thereby making the rotating plate more stable after being located above the gable top.
[0014] Preferably, a plurality of drainage grooves are provided on the top of the rotating plate and the gable roof, and the drainage grooves are evenly distributed in a linear array on the top of the rotating plate and the gable roof. When encountering rainy weather, the plurality of drainage grooves provided on the rotating plate and the gable roof can make the electric meter box have a better drainage effect in rainy weather, thereby effectively reducing the possibility of rainwater entering the inside of the box, and thus effectively ensuring the normal operation of the electric meter box.
[0015] Preferably, sliders are fixedly connected on both sides of the pressing block, and sliding grooves matching the sliders are provided on the inner wall of the through groove. When the rotating plate needs to be folded and stored, the pressing block on the fixed block needs to be pressed to make the sliding rod disengage from the circular groove on the fixed block. The sliders arranged on both sides of the pressing block and the sliding grooves provided on the inner wall of the through groove can play a better limiting and guiding role for the pressing block. This not only makes the pressing block more stable when sliding inside the through groove, but also effectively prevents the pressing block from being separated from the fixed block.
[0016] Preferably, rubber pads are fixedly connected to both sides of the handle, and anti-slip grooves are provided on the rubber pads. When people pull the handle to move the slide rod, the rubber pads provided on both sides of the handle can make people's hands more comfortable when pulling the handle. The anti-slip grooves provided on the rubber pads can effectively increase the friction between people's hands and the handle, preventing people's hands from slipping when pulling the handle.
[0017] Preferably, the corners of the rotating plate away from the gable top are all rounded. After the rotating plate of the electric meter box is unfolded, the corners of one side of the rotating plate are all rounded, which can effectively prevent the corners of the rotating plate from scratching people.

When encountering rainy weather, the rotating plate 5 can be rotated to unfold it, so as to play a better waterproof role for the box body 1. The corners of the rotating plate 5 away from the gable roof 3 are all rounded, which can effectively prevent the corners of the rotating plate 5 from scratching people. A plurality of drainage grooves 23 are provided on the top of the rotating plate 5 and the gable roof 3, and the drainage grooves 23 are evenly distributed on the rotating plate 5 and the gable roof in a linear array. The top of the herringbone top 3 can make the meter box have a better water-repellent effect in rainy weather, thereby effectively reducing the possibility of rainwater entering the box body 1, and thus effectively ensuring the normal operation of the meter box. The top of the rotating plate 5 is fixedly connected with a symmetrical magnet 21 on one side away from the herringbone top 3, and the top of the herringbone top 3 is fixedly connected with an iron sheet 22 attracted to the magnet 21. When the staff rotates the rotating plate 5 to the top of the herringbone top 3, the magnet 21 on the rotating plate 5 will attract the iron sheet 22 on the herringbone top 3, so that the rotating plate 5 is more stable after being located above the herringbone top 3. Both ends of the herringbone top 3 are fixedly connected with symmetrical fixed shells 6, and the fixed shells 6 are close to the rotating plate 5. When sliding, the fixed shells 6 slide. The interior of the sliding cavity 7 is slidably connected with a sliding rod 8, one end of the inner wall of the sliding cavity 7 is fixedly connected with a telescopic rod 9, and the other end of the telescopic rod 9 is fixedly connected to the sliding rod 8. The outer wall of the telescopic rod 9 is sleeved with a first spring 10, one end of the first spring 10 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding cavity 7, and the other end is fixedly connected to the sliding rod 8. Both ends of the rotating plate 5 are fixedly connected with a fixing block 11, and a circular groove 12 matching the sliding rod 8 is opened on one side of the fixing block 11. A limiting component is set at one end of the outer wall of the sliding rod 8 away from the fixed shell 6, and a connecting block 18 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer wall of the sliding rod 8. The connecting block 18 passes through the fixed shell 6 and the connecting block 18 extends out of one side of the fixed shell 6 and is fixedly connected There is a handle 19, and rubber pads 26 are fixedly connected on both sides of the handle 19, and anti-slip grooves are provided on the rubber pads 26. A transverse groove 20 matching the connecting block 18 is provided at the bottom of the fixed shell 6. After the rotating plate 5 is rotated and unfolded, the handle 19 is pulled in the direction close to the rotating plate 5 to move the slide bar 8 in the direction of the fixed block 11. When the slide bar 8 is fully inserted into the circular groove 12 on one side of the fixed block 11, the limit assembly provided on the outer wall of the slide bar 8 can prevent the slide bar 8 from sliding out of the circular groove 12, thereby playing a better limiting and fixing role for the rotating plate 5. When the rainy season is over, the rotating plate 5 can be rotated in the opposite direction to be folded and stored, so that the electric meter box occupies a smaller space when placed.
[0027] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the limiting assembly includes a symmetrical cavity 13 formed at one end of the outer wall of the slide bar 8 away from the fixed shell 6, a wedge block 14 is slidably connected inside the cavity 13, and a plurality of second springs 15 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner wall of the cavity 13, one end of the second spring 15 is fixedly connected to the wedge block 14, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the cavity 13, the top and bottom of the fixed block 11 are provided with a through groove 16 matching the wedge block 14, a pressing block 17 is slidably connected inside the through groove 16, and both sides of the pressing block 17 are fixedly connected with a slider 24, and the inner wall of the through groove 16 is provided with a sliding groove 25 matching the slider 24, one side of the pressing block 17 extends from the fixed block 11, and the other side is arranged to abut against the wedge block 14.

After the sliding rod 8 contacts the inner wall of the circular groove 12, the wedge block 14 is squeezed and slides into the cavity 13. At the same time, the second air pressure spring 15 compresses it. When the sliding rod 8 is fully inserted into the circular groove 12 on one side of the fixed block 11, the wedge block 14 will pop out under the action of the second spring 15 and engage with the through groove 16. At this time, it plays a good fixing role on the rotating plate 5, so that the electric meter box has higher stability during use. When it is necessary to fold and store the rotating plate 5, the pressing block 17 on the fixed block 11 is pressed at the same time to make the wedge block 14 slide into the cavity 13. When the wedge block 14 is completely out of the through groove 16, the sliding rod 8 will be reset under the action of the telescopic rod 9 and the first spring 10. At this time, the rotating plate 5 can be rotated to fold and store it, thereby making the electric meter box more practical.
