Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electric energy meters, and particularly relates to an electric energy meter shell with a waterproof button. Background Technique

[0002] An electric energy meter is an instrument used to measure electric energy, also known as a watt-hour meter, a fire meter, or a kilowatt-hour meter, which refers to an instrument for measuring various electrical quantities. Usually, the button of the electric energy meter itself is not waterproof. If the button is immersed in water, it is easy to damage the internal electronic components. Therefore, waterproof protection is required for the button of the electric energy meter.

[0003] At present, after waterproof protection is carried out on the button of the electric energy meter, when the waterproof button fails, due to the requirement of sealing, it is generally difficult to repair, which has certain limitations. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an electric energy meter shell with a waterproof button to solve the problems put forward in the above background technique.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0006] An electric energy meter shell with a waterproof button includes a shell body and a button body; a button body is fixedly installed at one end of the shell body, a sliding cover is arranged at one end of the shell body around the button body, a rubber ring is attached to the inside of the sliding cover around the button body, the rubber ring is fitted with one end of the shell body, a cavity is formed inside the rubber ring, a connection port is arranged on one side of the rubber ring, and the connection port extends out of one side of the sliding cover. Sliders are fixedly installed at the other end of the sliding cover at the top and bottom of the button body, a chute matching the shape of the slider is formed inside the shell body, the slider is slidably connected to the inside of the chute, a clamping plate is clamped at one end of the slider, a silica gel pad is clamped inside the clamping plate, the silica gel pad is fitted with one end of the sliding cover, and a limiting component is arranged at the bottom of the clamping plate, and the limiting component is used to connect the sliding cover and the clamping plate.

[0007] With the above technical solution, in this solution, by moving the sliding cover to the periphery of the button body, and at the same time fixing the silica gel pad between the sliding cover and the clamping plate, the periphery of the button body can be waterproof protected. Among them, by installing the slider, the sliding trajectory of the sliding cover at one end of the housing can be guided and limited, so as to prevent the sliding cover from falling off between one end and the housing. By connecting the external air supply device to the connection port, air can be supplied into the rubber ring through the connection port, causing the rubber ring to expand, so as to squeeze one end of the housing, thereby improving the sealing effect between the sliding cover and the housing. At the same time, the sliding cover can be limited to prevent the slider from driving the sliding cover to automatically slide to one side, resulting in the sliding cover falling off between the sliding cover and the housing. By pumping out the gas inside the rubber ring, the rubber ring can automatically contract and rebound, and then use the slider to move the sliding cover to one side to expose the button body, so as to facilitate the maintenance of the button body.

[0008] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present utility model lies in that: the silica gel pad is of a transparent color.

[0009] With the above technical solution, in this solution, by setting the color of the silica gel pad to be transparent, it is convenient for the user to observe the surface of the button body through the silica gel pad. At the same time, the silica gel pad can deform and rebound, so it will not affect the user's operation and use of the button body.

[0010] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present utility model lies in that: the limiting component includes a fixing block, which is fixedly connected to one end of the sliding cover. A limiting block is arranged inside the fixing block, the upper half of which is clamped into the inside of the clamping plate. A spring is fixedly installed inside the fixing block, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting block. A connecting rod is fixedly installed at the bottom of the limiting block inside the spring.

[0011] With the above technical solution, in this solution, the elastic force of the spring itself can squeeze the limiting block upward, so as to clamp the limiting block into the inside of the clamping plate, limit the position of the clamping plate at one end of the sliding cover, and thus realize the installation of the silica gel pad. By pulling the connecting rod downward, the limiting block can be separated from the inside of the clamping plate, so as to quickly disassemble and separate the clamping plate and the sliding cover.

[0012] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present utility model lies in that: a connecting plate is arranged at the bottom of the fixing block, and the connecting rod extends out of the bottom of the fixing block and is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate.

[0013] With the above technical solution, in this solution, by installing the connecting plate, the three connecting rods can be connected. By pulling one connecting plate, the three connecting rods can be pulled downward at the same time, which further facilitates the user to quickly disassemble and separate the clamping plate and the sliding cover.

[0014] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present utility model lies in that: a plurality of clamping blocks are fixedly installed at one end of the sliding cover, and each clamping block is engaged with the inside of the clamping plate.

[0015] With the above technical solution, in this solution, by installing the clamping blocks, the position where the clamping plate is inserted into one end of the sliding cover can be guided and limited. At the same time, the contact area between the clamping plate and the sliding cover is enlarged, and the stability of the installation of the clamping plate is improved.

[0016] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present utility model lies in that: a plurality of reinforcing blocks are clamped on the top of the sliding cover, and each reinforcing block is fitted with the inside of the clamping plate. A pull plate is arranged on the top of the sliding cover, and the pull plate is fixedly connected to the top of each reinforcing block.

[0017] With the above technical solution, in this solution, by installing the reinforcing blocks, the position of the clamping plate inside the sliding cover can be limited from the top, thereby achieving an effect of strengthening the installation of the clamping plate. By installing the pull plate, the contact area between the user's hand and the reinforcing blocks can be enlarged. At the same time, when the user takes one pull plate, three reinforcing blocks can be simultaneously clamped into the clamping plate and the protective cover without the user having to separately clamp each reinforcing block into the clamping plate and the protective cover, reducing the operation steps and thus improving the work efficiency.

[0018] A further improvement of the technical solution of the present utility model lies in that: a dial is fixedly installed at one end of the clamping plate.

[0019] With the above technical solution, in this solution, by installing the dial, the contact area between the user's hand and the clamping plate can be enlarged, so as to facilitate the user to dial the clamping plate to one side or the other side, thereby facilitating the movement processing of the sliding cover.

[0020] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the technical progress achieved by the present utility model compared with the prior art is:

[0021] 1. The present utility model provides an electric energy meter housing with a waterproof button. By fixing the silica gel pad between the sliding cover and the clamping plate and supplying gas into the rubber ring through the connection port, the rubber ring can be inflated, thereby improving the sealing effect between the sliding cover and the housing. At the same time, it can prevent the slider from driving the sliding cover to automatically slide to one side, thereby protecting the periphery of the button body from water. By extracting the gas inside the rubber ring, the rubber ring automatically shrinks and rebounds, and then the slider is used to move the sliding cover to one side, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the button body and improving the convenience of use of the device.

[0022] 2. The present utility model provides an electric energy meter housing with a waterproof button. Through the mutual cooperation of the limiting components, the clamping plate and the sliding cover can be quickly disassembled and installed, thereby facilitating the replacement of the silica gel pad and improving the work efficiency.

[0023] 3. The present utility model provides an electric energy meter housing with a waterproof button. By installing clamping blocks, reinforcing blocks, and pulling plates, the connection area between the clamping plate and the sliding cover can be enlarged, thereby strengthening the installation of the silica gel pad.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0032] The present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments:

[0033] Embodiment 1

[0034] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown in the figure, the utility model provides an electric energy meter shell with a waterproof button, which includes a shell 1 and a button body 101; a button body 101 is fixedly installed at one end of the shell 1, a sliding cover 2 is arranged at one end of the shell 1 around the button body 101, a rubber ring 6 is attached to the inside of the sliding cover 2 around the button body 101, the rubber ring 6 is fitted with one end of the shell 1, a cavity is formed inside the rubber ring 6, a connection port 601 is arranged on one side of the rubber ring 6, and the connection port 601 extends out of one side of the sliding cover 2. Sliders 201 are fixedly installed at the other end of the sliding cover 2 at the top and bottom of the button body 101, a chute matching the shape of the slider 201 is formed inside the shell 1, the slider 201 is slidably connected to the inside of the chute, a clamping plate 3 is clamped at one end of the slider 201, a silica gel pad 4 is clamped inside the clamping plate 3, the silica gel pad 4 is fitted with one end of the sliding cover 2, a limiting component 7 is arranged at the bottom of the clamping plate 3, and the limiting component 7 is used to connect the sliding cover 2 and the clamping plate 3. The silica gel pad 4 is of a transparent color.

[0035] In this embodiment, by moving the sliding cover 2 to the periphery of the button body 101 and fixing the silica gel pad 4 between the sliding cover 2 and the clamping plate 3 at the same time, waterproof protection can be provided for the periphery of the button body 101. Among them, by installing the slider 201, the sliding track of the sliding cover 2 at one end of the shell 1 can be guided and limited, so as to prevent the sliding cover 2 from falling off between one end and the shell 1. By connecting an external air supply device to the connection port 601, air can be supplied into the inside of the rubber ring 6 through the connection port 601, so that the rubber ring 6 expands, and then the one end of the shell 1 can be extruded, thereby improving the sealing effect between the sliding cover 2 and the shell 1. At the same time, the sliding cover 2 can be limited, preventing the slider 201 from driving the sliding cover 2 to automatically slide to one side, resulting in the sliding cover 2 falling off between the sliding cover 2 and the shell 1. By pumping out the gas inside the rubber ring 6, the rubber ring 6 can automatically shrink and rebound, and then the slider 201 is used to move the sliding cover 2 to one side, so as to expose the button body 101, facilitating the maintenance of the button body 101. By setting the color of the silica gel pad 4 to be transparent, it is convenient for the user to observe the surface of the button body 101 through the silica gel pad 4. At the same time, the silica gel pad 4 can deform and rebound, so it will not affect the user's operation of the button body 101.

[0036] Embodiment 2

[0037] Such as Figure 1 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, on the basis of Embodiment 1, the present utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, the limiting member 7 includes a fixing block 701, which is fixedly connected to one end of the sliding cover 2. A limiting block 702 is arranged inside the fixing block 701. The upper half of the limiting block 702 is inserted into the inside of the clamping plate 3. A spring 703 is fixedly installed inside the fixing block 701, and the spring 703 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the limiting block 702. A connecting rod 704 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the limiting block 702 inside the spring 703. A connecting plate 705 is arranged at the bottom of the fixing block 701. The connecting rod 704 extends out of the bottom of the fixing block 701 and is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting plate 705.

[0038] In this embodiment, the elastic force of the spring 703 itself can squeeze the limiting block 702 upward, so that the limiting block 702 is inserted into the inside of the clamping plate 3, limiting the position of the clamping plate 3 at one end of the sliding cover 2, thereby realizing the installation of the silica gel pad 4. By pulling the connecting rod 704 downward, the limiting block 702 can be separated from the inside of the clamping plate 3, so as to quickly disassemble and separate the clamping plate 3 and the sliding cover 2. By installing the connecting plate 705, the three connecting rods 704 can be connected. By pulling one connecting plate 705, the three connecting rods 704 can be pulled downward at the same time, which further facilitates the user to quickly disassemble and separate the clamping plate 3 and the sliding cover 2.

[0039] Embodiment 3

[0040] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, on the basis of Embodiment 2, the present utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, a plurality of clamping blocks 202 are fixedly installed at one end of the sliding cover 2, and each clamping block 202 is engaged with the inside of the clamping plate 3.

[0041] In this embodiment, by installing the clamping blocks 202, the position of the clamping plate 3 inserted into one end of the sliding cover 2 can be guided and limited. At the same time, the contact area between the clamping plate 3 and the sliding cover 2 is enlarged, and the stability of the installation of the clamping plate 3 is improved.

[0042] Embodiment 4

[0043] As Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, on the basis of Embodiment 3, the present utility model provides a technical solution: Preferably, a plurality of reinforcing blocks 5 are clamped on the top of the sliding cover 2, and each reinforcing block 5 is fitted with the inside of the clamping plate 3. A pulling plate 501 is arranged on the top of the sliding cover 2, and the pulling plate 501 is fixedly connected to the top of each reinforcing block 5. A dial 301 is fixedly installed at one end of the clamping plate 3.

[0044] In this embodiment, by installing the reinforcement block 5, the position of the clamping plate 3 inside the sliding cover 2 can be limited from the top, thus achieving the effect of strengthening the installation of the clamping plate 3. By installing the pulling plate 501, the contact area between the user's hand and the reinforcement block 5 can be enlarged. At the same time, when the user takes one pulling plate 501, three reinforcement blocks 5 can be simultaneously clamped into the clamping plate 3 and the protective cover 2 without the user separately clamping each reinforcement block 5 into the clamping plate 3 and the protective cover 2, reducing the operation steps and thus improving the work efficiency. By installing the dial 301, the contact area between the user's hand and the clamping plate 3 can be enlarged, facilitating the user to move the clamping plate 3 to one side or the other, and thus facilitating the movement processing of the sliding cover 2.

[0045] Next, the working principle of the electric energy meter housing with a waterproof button will be specifically described.

[0046] As Figures 1 - 6 shown, the user can pull down the connecting plate 705 and at the same time pull down the limiting block 702, then clamp the clamping plate 3 around the clamping block 202 so that the clamping block 202 is clamped at one end of the sliding cover 2. The user can release the connecting plate 705, and the spring 703 can be used to clamp the limiting block 702 into the clamping plate 3 to limit the clamping plate 3, thus realizing the fixation of the silica gel pad 4 between the sliding cover 2 and the clamping plate 3. The user can insert the reinforcement block 5 into the sliding cover 2 and the clamping plate 3 from the top to reinforce the position of the clamping plate 3 at one end of the sliding cover 2. After the clamping plate 3 is limited, the sliding cover 2 is moved to the periphery of the button body 101, and an external air supply device is connected to the connection port 601. Thus, air can be supplied into the rubber ring 6 through the connection port 601, causing the rubber ring 6 to expand, thereby improving the sealing effect between the sliding cover 2 and the housing 1 and at the same time preventing the slider 201 from driving the sliding cover 2 to automatically slide to one side, thus realizing the waterproof protection of the periphery of the button body 101; when the button body 101 needs to be maintained, the user can extract the gas inside the rubber ring 6. At this time, the rubber ring 6 can automatically contract and rebound, and then the slider 201 is used to move the sliding cover 2 to one side, thus facilitating the maintenance of the button body 101; when the silica gel pad 4 needs to be replaced, the user can remove the reinforcement block 5 upward, pull down the connecting plate 705, and through the connecting rod 704, the limiting block 702 can be separated from the inside of the clamping plate 3, thus quickly disassembling and separating the clamping plate 3 and the sliding cover 2 to facilitate the replacement of the silica gel pad 4.

[0047] The above generally describes the present invention in detail. However, based on the present invention, some modifications or improvements can be made, which are obvious to those of ordinary skill in the technical field. Therefore, the modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
