[0015] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0016] Refer to the attached Figure 1-2 : The dust-proof and dehumidifying mechanism of the terminal of the DTU distribution automation station in this embodiment 1 includes a terminal housing 1, a dehumidification box 2 and a filter 3. The dehumidification box 2 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the terminal housing 1, and a dehumidification chamber 21 is arranged in the dehumidification box 2. A condensation plate 22 and a ventilation plate 23 are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the dehumidification chamber 21. A radiator 5 and an electric wiper 4 are respectively arranged on the inner and outer surfaces of the condensation plate 22. A drainage channel 24 is provided at the bottom of the dehumidification chamber 21. The drainage channel 24 leads to the outside of the terminal housing 1 and is connected to a drainage pump, a water tank or a dryer. A ventilation hole connecting the dehumidification chamber 21 and the inside of the terminal housing 1 is provided on the ventilation plate 23. The filter 3 is detachably and fixedly connected to the ventilation hole. An exhaust channel 25 is provided on the top of the dehumidification chamber 21. The exhaust channel 25 is connected to the inside of the terminal housing 1, and an exhaust fan 26 is provided on the exhaust channel.

[0017] Working principle: When the exhaust fan 26 is powered on, the exhaust channel 25 extracts the gas in the dehumidification chamber 21, so that negative pressure is generated in the dehumidification chamber 21. The air in the terminal housing 1 is sucked into the dehumidification chamber 21 through the ventilation plate 23, and then discharged back to the terminal housing 1 through the exhaust channel 25. The dust is filtered out when the air passes through the filter 3. The filter 3 is fixedly connected to the dehumidification box 2 by screws and can be manually disassembled and cleaned regularly. The air after filtering and dust removal releases heat when it contacts the condensation plate 22 with a lower temperature, and condensation is generated first. The electric wiper 4 is started to scrape off the small dewdrops on the surface of the condensation plate 22, so that it converges and flows to the bottom of the dehumidification chamber 21, and is discharged to the outside of the terminal housing 1 through the drainage channel 24. The dehumidified air is discharged back to the terminal housing 1 through the exhaust channel 25. This cycle is repeated to achieve dust removal and dehumidification of the air in the terminal housing 1. The radiator 5 can dissipate the heat from the condensation plate 22. Users can choose the installation method of the dehumidification box according to the actual needs of the terminal installation environment, such as Figure 1 As shown, when the outside air is cold and wet, when the radiator 5 is fixedly installed inside the terminal housing 1, the heat is discharged into the terminal housing 1, playing the role of heating and dehumidification. Figure 4 As shown, when the outside air is dry and hot, when the radiator 5 is fixedly installed on the outside of the terminal housing 1 , the heat is discharged into the atmosphere outside the terminal housing 1 , thereby avoiding high temperature inside the terminal housing 1 .

[0018] Embodiment 2, on the basis of embodiment 1, the electric wiper 4 includes a motor 41, a reducer 42, a horizontal shaft 43 and a wiper strip 44, the output shaft of the motor 41 is fixedly connected to the input end of the reducer 42, the output end of the reducer 42 is fixedly connected to the horizontal shaft 43, the horizontal shaft 43 is rotatably mounted on the condensation plate 22, the wiper strip 44 is fixedly mounted on the horizontal shaft 43, and the wiper strip 44 is in contact with the inner surface of the condensation plate 22.

[0019] Through the above structural design, after the motor 41 is started, the motor 41 decelerates and amplifies the torque through the reducer 42 to drive the wiper strip 44 on the horizontal axis 43 to rotate, thereby realizing rotary wiping of the inner surface of the condensation plate 22.

[0020] Further preferably, the radiator 5 includes a heat sink 51 and a heat dissipation fan 52, the heat sink 51 is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the condensation plate 22, the heat dissipation fan 52 is fixedly mounted on the heat sink 51, the reducer 42 is a double-output shaft reducer 42, the interior of which is a bevel gear transmission mechanism, and one of the output shafts of the reducer 42 is fixedly connected to the heat dissipation fan 52. Through the above structural design, the motor 41 can rotate the heat dissipation fan 52 at the same time, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat sink 51.

[0021] Embodiment 3, based on embodiment 2, in order to improve the dehumidification efficiency, as shown in the attached Figure 2-3 As shown, a movable water collecting ring 45 is fixedly installed on the wiper strip 44, and the movable water collecting ring 45 is sealed and slidably connected to the inner wall of the dehumidification chamber. A first water collecting groove 46 is provided on the inner side of the movable water collecting ring 45, and drainage holes 47 are distributed circumferentially on the first water collecting groove 46. A fixed water collecting ring 27 is gap-fittedly provided on the movable water collecting ring 45, and the fixed water collecting ring 27 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the dehumidification chamber. A second water collecting groove 28 is provided on the inner side of the fixed water collecting ring 27, and the second water collecting groove 28 corresponds to the position of the drainage hole 47, and the drainage channel 24 is communicated with the second water collecting groove 28.

[0022] Through the above structural design, when the wiper strip 44 scrapes off the small water droplets on the surface of the condensation plate 22, the water will be quickly directed to the first water collecting groove 46 of the movable water collecting ring 45, and then flow to the second water collecting groove 28 of the fixed water collecting ring 27 through the drainage hole 47, and then the water flow converges and is discharged through the drainage channel 24. When the dehumidification chamber 21 is under negative pressure, the air in the cabinet flows into the movable water collecting ring 45 through the ventilation plate 23, fully contacts the surface of the condensation plate 22, improves the condensation and dehumidification effect, and then the dry gas flows into the dehumidification chamber 21 through the drainage hole 47, and then returns to the inside of the terminal housing 1 through the exhaust channel 25.

[0023] The gas flowing through the drainage hole 47 can accelerate the liquid on the first water collecting groove 46 to flow to the second water collecting groove 28, thereby improving the dehumidification efficiency. Further preferably, a guide groove 48 is provided on the wiper strip 44, and the guide groove is connected to the drainage hole 47. The water on the wiper strip 44 can flow quickly and accurately to the drainage hole 47 through the guide groove 48, thereby enhancing the drainage efficiency.

Figure 4 As shown, the drainage channel 24 is provided with an electromagnetic water valve 6, and the electromagnetic water valve 6 is electrically connected to the wireless communication control module. When the dust sensor senses that the dust content in the air in the terminal housing 1 is high, it triggers the exhaust fan 26 to work for a period of time. After the dust concentration in the cabinet drops significantly below the threshold, the exhaust fan 26 is controlled to stop. Similarly, the humidity sensor is used to monitor the air humidity in the terminal housing 1. When the humidity exceeds the standard, the radiator 5, the electric wiper 4 and the exhaust fan 26 are started to work together to realize the dehumidification function. The wireless communication control module is a wireless terminal device installed in the terminal housing 1. It transmits data through a wireless communication network to realize remote Internet of Things control of the dehumidification box.
