Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] See also Figures 1 to 5 The utility model provides a technical solution

[0022] A ventilation mechanism of a positive pressure explosion-proof power distribution cabinet, comprising a power distribution cabinet 1, an air inlet device 2 is arranged on the top of the power distribution cabinet 1, the air inlet device 2 comprises a box 3 arranged on the top of the power distribution cabinet 1, an air inlet 4 is opened on the side of the box 3, a dust cover 5 is arranged on the outside of the air inlet 4, the bottom of the box 3 is connected to the inside of the power distribution cabinet 1 through a through hole 6 opened on the top of the power distribution cabinet 1, a filter bin 7 is arranged inside the box 3, and the dust and impurities from the outside are effectively prevented from entering the power distribution cabinet 1 through the dust cover 5 and the filter bin 7 of the air inlet device 2. Inside the cabinet 1, the electrical components are protected from pollution and damage, and the quality of the air entering the distribution cabinet 1 is guaranteed. The filtered air enters the distribution cabinet 1 through the through hole 6, and is then discharged by the exhaust pipe 29 to keep the air in the cabinet clean and explosion-proof. A heat dissipation device 8 is provided at the bottom end of the distribution cabinet 1. The heat dissipation device 8 is composed of a heat exchange box 9, a cooling pipe 10 and a support box 11. The heat exchange box 9 and the cooling pipe 10 of the heat dissipation device 8 can effectively reduce the heat generated during the operation of the electrical components, thereby ensuring the normal operation and service life of the equipment.

[0023] Specifically, a fan 12 is installed inside the box 3, and the air inlet end 13 of the fan 12 is connected to the filter bin 7. A one-way air inlet valve 28 is arranged inside the air inlet end 13. The air outlet end 14 of the fan 12 is sealed and connected to the through hole 6 on the top of the power distribution cabinet 1 through a sealing ring 15. The filter bin 7 includes a filter screen 16 and a mounting frame 17. The mounting frame 17 has mounting grooves 18 on both sides. The filter screen 16 is slidably connected inside the mounting groove 18. A handle 19 is installed on the outside of the filter screen 16. The outer side of the box 3 is hinged by a hinge. There is a cover door 20, and the fan 12 generates suction to inhale the outside air through the air inlet 4 and the dust cover 5. The inhaled air first enters the filter compartment 7, and the filter 16 filters the air. The filter 16 can be easily removed and replaced from the installation frame 17 through the handle 19 to maintain the filtering effect. At the same time, the cover door 20 is hinged by hinges, which is easy to open and close, and convenient for cleaning and maintenance of the inside of the box body 3. The filtered air is pushed by the fan 12 and sealed and connected with the through hole 6 on the top of the distribution cabinet 1 through the sealing ring 15 to enter the inside of the distribution cabinet 1. Due to the pushing action of the fan and the inflow of fresh air, positive pressure is formed, and the original gas in the cabinet is discharged through the exhaust pipe 29 to maintain the air cleanliness and explosion-proof safety in the cabinet.

[0024] Specifically, the heat exchange box 9 is installed at the bottom of the power distribution cabinet 1, and a support box 11 is arranged above the heat exchange box 9. A cooling pipe 10 and a blower 21 are installed in the support box 11. A liquid inlet pipe 22 is installed at one end of the cooling pipe 10. The liquid inlet pipe 22 is connected to the liquid inlet end of a circulating pump 23 arranged outside the heat exchange box 9. The liquid outlet end of the circulating pump 23 is connected to the heat exchange box 9. A liquid outlet pipe 24 is installed on the outer wall of the heat exchange box 9 away from the circulating pump 23. One end of the liquid outlet pipe 24 extends to the cooling pipe 10. Inside the tube 10, the electrical components inside the distribution cabinet 1 transfer heat to the inside of the heat exchange box 9, and the circulating pump 23 transports the low-temperature liquid inside the cooling tube 10 to the inside of the heat exchange box 9 through the liquid inlet pipe 22. The high-temperature liquid generated after the heat exchange is transported to the inside of the cooling tube 10 through the liquid outlet pipe 24. Turn on the blower 21, and in the support box 11, the blower 21 blows air to the cooling tube 10 to accelerate the cooling and heat dissipation of the cooling tube 10, thereby realizing efficient heat dissipation of the distribution cabinet and extending the service life of the electrical components inside the distribution cabinet.

[0025] Specifically, the air outlet end 14 passes through the distribution cabinet 1 and is connected with the air supply duct 25. An air duct 26 is installed on the inner wall of the distribution cabinet 1. The air supply duct 25 is connected to the air duct 26. A plurality of air outlets 27 are opened on the wall of the air duct 26. By setting the air duct 26, the air of the air supply duct can be evenly guided to all corners inside the distribution cabinet. The air outlet ensures that the air can be evenly and widely distributed inside the distribution cabinet, further reducing the temperature of the electrical components, avoiding excessive temperature differences inside the distribution cabinet 1, enhancing the ventilation effect, and maintaining the stability of the internal environment.

[0026] Specifically, exhaust pipes 29 are provided at the bottom ends of both sides of the distribution cabinet 1. One-way electromagnetic exhaust valves 30 are provided inside the exhaust pipes 29 to adjust and control the pressure inside the distribution cabinet 1 to ensure that the internal pressure is always maintained within a safe range. The outer walls of the exhaust pipes 29 are respectively provided with sealing covers 31, which can protect the exhaust pipes 29 from external dust and moisture.

[0027] Specifically, a pressure sensor 32 and a gas detector 33 are provided inside the cabinet. By installing the pressure sensor 32 and the temperature sensor 33, the pressure and temperature inside the cabinet can be monitored in real time. Once abnormal pressure or excessive temperature is found, the internal environment of the distribution cabinet 1 can be monitored and adjusted in real time through the intelligent regulation of the PLC control system.

[0028] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows: During actual use, the pressure sensor 32 will continuously monitor the pressure state inside the distribution cabinet 1. Once it finds that the pressure inside the cabinet is too low, it will immediately send a signal to the connected PLC control system. After receiving the signal, the PLC control system will respond quickly, control the one-way air intake valve 28 to open, and start the fan 12. After the fan 12 is started, it starts to inhale external air through the air inlet 4 of the air inlet device 2. The air will first pass through the dust cover 5 for preliminary dust filtration, and then enter the filter bin 7 inside the box 3 for more refined filtration to ensure that the air entering the distribution cabinet 1 is clean. The filtered clean air then enters the air supply duct 25 through the air outlet end 14, and is evenly guided and dispersed to the distribution cabinet 1 by the air guide duct 26 and the air outlet 27. Every corner inside provides a uniform and clean working environment for the electrical components. When the electrical components generate heat during operation, the heat will be transmitted to the inside of the heat exchange box 9. If the temperature sensor 33 detects that the temperature inside the cabinet is too high, the PLC control system will immediately start the circulation pump 23 and the blower 21. The circulation pump 23 pumps the low-temperature liquid in the cooling pipe 10 into the heat exchange box 9 through the liquid inlet pipe 22. After the liquid absorbs heat in the heat exchange box 9, the temperature rises and then returns to the cooling pipe 10 through the liquid outlet pipe 24, forming a circulating cooling system. At the same time, the blower 21 will blow air to the cooling pipe 10 in the support box 11 to speed up the heat dissipation. If the pressure inside the distribution cabinet 1 is too high, the exhaust valve 30 in the exhaust pipe 29 will automatically open to release excess gas to ensure the pressure balance inside the cabinet.

[0029] The utility model can also circulate and replace the gas in the distribution cabinet 1 regularly as needed. Specifically, the PLC control system program is set to regularly control the one-way air intake valve 28 to open, and start the fan 12 to suck new air into the distribution cabinet 1 under negative pressure, and at the same time control the exhaust valve 30 to open. After the fan 12 has worked for a period of time, the exhaust valve 30 is closed, and the fan 12 continues to suck air into the distribution cabinet 1 until the set time is reached. At this time, the one-way air intake valve 28 is controlled to be closed and the fan 12 is stopped.

[0030] The remaining parts not described in this utility model are existing or known technologies.
