[0030] Specifically, the lock base assembly 4 includes a lock box 4.1, a lock cover 4.2, and a lock head 4.3, wherein the outer wall of the lock box 4.1 is fixedly mounted on the inner walls of the four sides of the switch box 1, the lock box 4.1 accommodates the locking structure of the lock base assembly 4, the bottom of the lock cover 4.2 is fixedly mounted on the top of the lock box 4.1, the bottom of the lock head 4.3 passes through the lock cover 4.2, and the bottom of the lock head 4.3 extends into the lock box 4.1.

[0031] Slide grooves 4.1.1 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the lock box 4.1, and a socket 4.2.1 is provided on the outer surface of the lock cover 4.2. The socket 4.2.1 facilitates the lock core assembly 5 to enter the interior of the lock box 4.1. Slide rods 4.3.1 are fixedly provided on both sides of the lock head 4.3, and the slide rods 4.3.1 are slidably installed in the slide grooves 4.1.1; two slide rods 4.3.1 are fixedly provided on the same side of the lock head 4.3.

[0032] More specifically, the lock base assembly 4 also includes a first magnetic column 4.4 and a reset spring 4.5.

One end of the reset spring 4.5 is fixedly mounted on the end of the lock head 4.3 away from the lock core assembly 5. The other end of the reset spring 4.5 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the lock box 4.1. The reset spring 4.5 serves to reset the lock head 4.3.

[0033] The lock base assembly 4 also includes a second magnetic column 4.6, an electromagnetic relay 4.7 and a connecting rod 4.8, wherein one end of the second magnetic column 4.6 away from the first magnetic column 4.4 is fixedly mounted on one end of the connecting rod 4.8, the second magnetic column 4.6 can magnetically attract the first magnetic column 4.4 to cause it to displace, the electromagnetic relay 4.7 is located on both sides of the lock box 4.1, the electromagnetic relay 4.7 is fixedly mounted on the inner wall of the switch box 1, the electromagnetic relay 4.7 can drive the connecting rod 4.8 to extend and retract, the other end of the connecting rod 4.8 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the electromagnetic relay 4.7, and the connecting rod 4.8 drives the second magnetic column 4.6 to extend and retract.

[0034] More specifically, the lock core assembly 5 includes a lock core body 5.1, a bevel head 5.2 and a locking groove 5.3, wherein the top of the lock core body 5.1 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the machine box cover 2, the top of the bevel head 5.2 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the lock core body 5.1, the locking groove 5.3 is opened on both sides of the lock core body 5.1, and the locking groove 5.3 matches the lock head 4.3, and the locking groove 5.3 facilitates the locking head 4.3 to be inserted.

[0035] Furthermore, during the locking process of the switch box 1 and the box cover 2, the lock core assembly 5 is inserted into the socket 4.2.1, and the beveled head 5.2 moves downward. The inclined surface of the beveled head 5.2 and the lock head 4.3 make the lock head 4.3 start to push outward when the beveled head 5.2 moves downward. The slide bar 4.3.1 on the lock head 4.3 slides along the slide groove 4.1.1 on the inner wall of the lock box 4.1, and the lock head 4.3 compresses the reset spring 4.5. When the lock head 4.3 passes the beveled head 5.2 and the lock head 4.3 passes the locking groove 5.3, the reset spring 4.5 drives the lock head 4.3 to slide into the locking groove 5.3, so that the lock head 4.3 is stuck in the locking groove 5.3 of the lock core body 5.1, so that the switch box 1 and the box cover 2 are locked.
