Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of electrical boxes, and more particularly, to an electrical box. Background Art

[0002] An electrical box is a low-voltage power distribution device that assembles switching equipment, measuring instruments, protective electrical appliances, and auxiliary equipment in a closed or semi-closed metal cabinet according to electrical wiring requirements. It has a wide range of applications in the industrial field and can connect or disconnect circuits manually or automatically during normal operation.

[0003] However, when most electrical boxes are in use, the heat dissipation net is usually locked with bolts during connection. As a result, the bolts are corroded by rainwater and prone to looseness after rusting. Furthermore, the heat dissipation net is likely to fall off the surface of the electrical box after long-term use, leading to poor protection effect when the electrical box is in use. Consequently, environmental factors are likely to damage the internal wiring harness after long-term use of the electrical box. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the present disclosure is to provide an electrical box with high installation reliability of the heat dissipation net, which is beneficial to improving the protection effect of the electrical box.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present disclosure provides an electrical box, which includes a box body, a heat dissipation net, a limiting member, and an adjusting assembly;

[0006] Two parallel reserved grooves are formed on the outer side of the box body. The heat dissipation net is installed on the box body, and one end of the heat dissipation net is arranged between the two reserved grooves. The limiting member is movably arranged in the reserved grooves along the extending direction of the reserved grooves, so that the inner wall of the limiting member facing the box body can be in contact with or separated from the outer side of the heat dissipation net;

[0007] When the limiting member is arranged to be in contact with the outer side of the heat dissipation net, the heat dissipation net is abutted against the box body. The adjusting assembly is arranged in the reserved grooves and connected to the limiting member, and the adjusting assembly is used to adjust the position of the limiting member in the extending direction of the reserved grooves.

[0008] Optionally, the reserved grooves extend along the height direction of the electrical box, the upper end of the heat dissipation net is arranged between the two reserved grooves, and the limiting member is adapted to be in contact with the outer side of the upper part of the heat dissipation net.

[0009] Optionally, the adjusting assembly includes a slider and a connecting rod. The slider is slidably connected to the reserved grooves, and the two ends of the connecting rod are respectively connected to the slider and the limiting member.

[0010] Optionally, the adjusting assembly further includes a guide rod and a spring sleeved on the guide rod;

[0011] The guide rod penetrates through the slider, and both ends of the guide rod are respectively connected to both ends of the reserved groove. One end of the spring is connected to the slider;

[0012] The spring is used to provide the slider with a position to keep the limiting member in a position where the heat dissipation net is limited.

[0013] Optionally, a handle is provided on the limiting member.

[0014] Optionally, the heat dissipation net is connected to the box body by locking bolts.

[0015] Optionally, a solar panel and an angle adjustment assembly are provided on the top of the box body, and the angle adjustment assembly is used to adjust the angle of the solar panel relative to the box body.

[0016] Optionally, the angle adjustment assembly includes a connecting plate, a connecting rod and two mounting plates. The two mounting plates are oppositely arranged on the top of the box body, and both ends of the connecting rod are rotatably connected to the two mounting plates; one end of the connecting rod is rotatably connected to the connecting plate, and the other end of the connecting plate is connected to the solar panel.

[0017] Optionally, the angle adjustment assembly further includes a driving motor, a first gear and a second gear that are meshed with each other.

[0018] Optionally, the second gear is a semi-gear, the semi-gear includes a toothed portion and a mounting portion, the toothed portion is meshed with the first gear, and the mounting portion is connected to the solar panel.

[0019] Through the above specific structure, the heat dissipation net is installed on the box body, and one end of the heat dissipation net is arranged between two reserved grooves on the outer side of the box body. The adjustment assembly adjusts the position of the limiting member in the extending direction of the reserved groove, so that the inner wall of the limiting member facing the box body can be in contact with or separated from the outer side of the heat dissipation net. When the limiting member is in contact with the outer side of the heat dissipation net, the limiting member presses the heat dissipation net against the box body, so that the heat dissipation net cannot be displaced, avoiding the heat dissipation net falling off when the electrical box is in use, improving the reliability of the installation of the heat dissipation net, and thus improving the protection effect of the electrical box; when the limiting member is separated from the outer side of the heat dissipation net, the limiting member releases the restriction on the heat dissipation net, and the heat dissipation net can be disassembled from the box body, facilitating the operator to disassemble or replace the heat dissipation net.

Specific Embodiments

[0029] The following provides a detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and are not used to limit the present disclosure.

[0030] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or indirectly on the other element; when an element is referred to as "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element.

[0031] In this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, the orientation terms such as "upper, lower, top, bottom" are usually defined based on the "upper, lower, top, bottom" in the normal use state of the electrical box. "Inner and outer" refer to the inside and outside of the corresponding component contour. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for distinguishing descriptions and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0032] In the description of this disclosure, it should be noted that unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "coupled" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two components or the interaction relationship between two components; for those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this disclosure can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , the electrical box 1 provided by this disclosure includes a box body 2, a heat dissipation net 3, a limiting member 4, and an adjusting assembly 5; two parallel reserved slots 21 are provided on the outer side of the box body 2, the heat dissipation net 3 is installed on the box body 2, one end of the heat dissipation net 3 is arranged between the two reserved slots 21, the limiting member 4 is movably arranged in the reserved slot 21 along the extending direction of the reserved slot 21, so that the inner wall of the limiting member 4 facing the box body 2 can be in contact with or separated from the outer side of the heat dissipation net 3; when the limiting member 4 is arranged to be in contact with the outer side of the heat dissipation net 3, the limiting member 4 abuts the heat dissipation net 3 against the box body 2, and the adjusting assembly 5 is arranged in the reserved slot 21 and connected to the limiting member 4, and the adjusting assembly 5 is used to adjust the position of the limiting member 4 in the extending direction of the reserved slot 21.

[0034] Through the above specific structure, the heat dissipation net 3 is installed on the box body 2 and one end of the heat dissipation net 3 is arranged between the two reserved slots 21 on the outer side of the box body 2. The adjusting assembly 5 adjusts the position of the limiting member 4 in the extending direction of the reserved slot 21, so that the inner wall of the limiting member 4 facing the box body 2 can be in contact with or separated from the outer side of the heat dissipation net 3. When the limiting member 4 is in contact with the outer side of the heat dissipation net 3, the limiting member 4 abuts the heat dissipation net 3 against the box body 2, so that the heat dissipation net 3 cannot be displaced, avoiding the heat dissipation net 3 falling off when the electrical box 1 is in use, improving the reliability of the installation of the heat dissipation net 3, and thus improving the protection effect of the electrical box 1; when the limiting member 4 is separated from the outer side of the heat dissipation net 3, the limiting member 4 releases the restriction on the heat dissipation net 3, and the heat dissipation net 3 can be detached from the box body 2, facilitating the operator to disassemble or replace the heat dissipation net 3.

[0035] It can be understood that multiple heat dissipation nets 3 can be installed on the box body 2. In this case, the electrical box includes multiple limiting members 4 and adjusting assemblies 5 (such as Figure 1 shown).

[0036] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the reserved slot 21 may be arranged to extend along the height direction of the electrical box 1. The upper end of the heat dissipation net 3 is arranged between the two reserved slots 21, and the limiting member 4 is adapted to be in contact with the outer side of the upper part of the heat dissipation net 3.

[0037] The reserved slot 21 has opposite first and second ends in the height direction of the electrical box 1. The upper end of the heat dissipation net 3 is arranged between the first end and the second end of the reserved slot 21. By abutting the limiting member 4 against the outer side of the heat dissipation net 3, the restriction of the heat dissipation net 3 is realized, and the heat dissipation net 3 is prevented from falling off.

[0038] It can be understood that the upper end of the heat dissipation net 3 is arranged between the two reserved slots 21, and the present disclosure does not limit the specific setting position of the upper end of the heat dissipation net 3.

[0039] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the reserved slot 21 may be arranged along the width direction of the electrical box 1. One end of the heat dissipation net 3 is arranged between the two reserved slots 21, and the limiting member 4 is adapted to be in contact with the outer side of the heat dissipation net 3 close to that end.

[0040] Please refer to Figures 1-3 , for facilitating the movement of the limiting member 4 along the reserved slot 21, the adjusting assembly 5 may include a slider 51 and a first connecting rod 52. The slider 51 is slidably connected to the reserved slot 21, and the two ends of the first connecting rod 52 are respectively connected to the slider 51 and the limiting member 4. The two ends of the first connecting rod 52 are respectively connected to the slider 51 and the limiting member 4. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the limiting member 4 in the extending direction of the reserved slot 21, the position of the slider 51 in the reserved slot 21 can be changed, thereby driving the limiting member 4 to move synchronously, effectively improving the smoothness of the movement of the limiting member 4 along the extending direction of the reserved slot 21.

[0041] It can be understood that the slider 51 is arranged to be slidably connected to the reserved slot 21, and the slider 51 can only displace along the extending direction of the reserved slot 21 and cannot move in other directions of the reserved slot 21.

[0042] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the adjusting assembly 5 further includes a guide rod 53 and a spring 54 sleeved on the guide rod 53. The guide rod 53 penetrates through the slider 51 and the two ends of the guide rod 53 are respectively connected to the two ends of the reserved slot 21. One end of the spring 54 is connected to the slider 51, and the spring 54 is used to provide the slider 51 with a position for keeping the limiting member 4 in a position where the heat dissipation net 3 is limited.

[0043] The guide rod 53 passes through the slider 51 and both ends of the guide rod 53 are respectively connected to both ends of the reserved groove 21. In this way, displacement of the slider 51 in other directions in the reserved groove 21 is avoided. The spring 54 is sleeved on the guide rod 53 and one end of the spring 54 is connected to the slider 51. The spring 54 drives the slider 51 to move. On the one hand, the spring 54 is used to provide the slider 51 with a position to keep the limiting member 4 in the position of limiting the heat dissipation net 3. That is, when the limiting member 4 keeps limiting the heat dissipation net 3, the spring 54 is in a compressed state. In this way, it is ensured that the limiting member 4 is not accidentally released from limiting the heat dissipation net 3 due to vibrations or other reasons. On the other hand, the spring 54 has elasticity. When the limiting member 4 is released from limiting the heat dissipation net 3, the slider 51 drives the spring 54 to move in a direction away from the heat dissipation net 3, and the spring 54 is gradually compressed. When it is necessary to re-limit the heat dissipation net 3, affected by the elastic force of the spring 54, the spring 54 has a tendency to reset in a direction close to the heat dissipation net 3. Loosing the spring 54 can realize the movement of the slider 51, thereby driving the limiting member 4 to move to the position of keeping the heat dissipation net 3 limited. In this way, when the limiting member 4 limits the heat dissipation net 3, manual movement is no longer required, reducing manual operation.

[0044] To facilitate the operator to move the limiting member 4, a handle 41 is provided on the limiting member 4. The operator pulls the handle 41 in a direction away from the heat dissipation net 3, and the limiting member 4 can be released from limiting the heat dissipation net 3. Loosing the handle 41, the limiting member 4 automatically resets. By providing the handle 41 on the limiting member 4, the convenience of the operator can be improved and the operation difficulty can be reduced.

[0045] To improve the protection effect of the electrical box 1, the heat dissipation net 3 and the box body 2 are connected by locking bolts 6. In this way, double protection is applied to the electrical box 1, reducing the possibility of the heat dissipation net 3 falling off from the electrical box 1 and improving the protection effect of the electrical box 1.

[0046] The present disclosure does not limit the specific position and quantity of the locking bolts 6, and can be specifically selected according to factors such as the size of the heat dissipation net 3 and the actual working environment (such as indoor and outdoor).

[0047] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , a solar panel 7 and an angle adjustment component 8 are provided on the top of the box body 2, and the angle adjustment component 8 is used to adjust the angle of the solar panel 7 relative to the box body 2.

[0048] By arranging a solar panel 7 on the top of the electrical box 1, solar energy can be collected when there is sufficient sunlight to supply power or store electricity for the internal components of the electrical box 1, reducing the dependence of the electrical box 1 on external energy. When the solar panel 7 stores light energy, the electrical box 1 can still operate normally for a period of time even if the power supply to the electrical box 1 is cut off. By arranging an angle adjustment component 8 to adjust the angle of the solar panel 7 relative to the box body 2, the solar panel 7 can face the light direction in different time periods, thereby expanding the applicable range of the electrical box 1. Even in different regions and different seasons with different light directions, the electrical box 1 can collect solar energy through the solar panel 7 and the angle adjustment component 8.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 4 , in the present disclosure, the angle adjustment component 8 may include a connecting plate 81, a second connecting rod 82 and two mounting plates 83. The two mounting plates 83 are oppositely arranged on the top of the box body 2, and both ends of the second connecting rod 82 are rotatably connected to the two mounting plates 83; one end of the second connecting rod 82 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 81, and the other end of the connecting plate 81 is connected to the solar panel 7. In this way, the solar panel 7 is connected to the connecting plate 81, the connecting plate 81 and the second connecting rod 82 are rotatably connected, and both ends of the second connecting rod 82 are rotatably connected to the two oppositely arranged mounting plates 83. An operator can directly rotate any one of the solar panel 7, the connecting plate 81 and the second connecting rod 82 to change the angle of the solar panel 7, so that the solar panel 7 always faces the light direction, improving the collection efficiency of the solar panel 7 for solar energy.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the angle adjustment component 8 may further include a driving motor 84, a first gear 85 and a second gear 86 that are meshed with each other. The driving motor 84 is installed on the mounting plate 83, the first gear 85 is sleeved on the output shaft of the driving motor 84, and the second gear 86 is connected to the solar panel 7. The driving motor 84 is used to drive the first gear 85 to rotate. By driving the driving motor 84 to drive the first gear 85 to rotate, the second gear 86 meshed with the first gear 85 is driven to rotate synchronously, and the second gear 86 drives the solar panel 7 to rotate, thereby reducing manual operation and lowering the labor intensity.

[0051] In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the electrical box 1 may be provided with a remote operation module electrically connected to the driving motor 84. The driving motor 84 is controlled to start and stop and the rotation direction through the remote operation module. Furthermore, an operator can remotely control multiple electrical boxes 1, improving work efficiency and reducing the working cost of operating the driving motor 84 on site at the electrical box 1. It should be noted that the remote operation module may be any mature remote operation module on the market, and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0052] In yet another embodiment of the present disclosure, a photosensitive sensor may be provided on the solar panel 7 to control the flow of current of the drive motor 84 through the photosensitive sensor, thereby controlling the rotation direction of the drive motor 84. In this way, the automation of the rotation of the solar panel 7 is realized, and the rotation and commutation can be achieved without personnel operation or monitoring, further reducing the working intensity of the operator. It should be noted that the photosensitive sensor can be any mature photosensitive sensor on the market, and the present disclosure does not limit this. The working principle of the photosensitive sensor is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in the present disclosure, optionally, the second gear 86 is a semi-gear, and the semi-gear includes a toothed portion 861 and a mounting portion 862. The toothed portion 861 is meshed and connected with the first gear 85, and the mounting portion 862 is connected with the solar panel 7. In this way, the second gear 86 is set as a semi-gear, the mounting portion 862 of the semi-gear is connected with the solar panel 7, and the meshing portion is meshed and connected with the first gear 85. When the drive motor 84 drives the first gear 85 to drive the second gear 86 to rotate, the second gear 86 has a rotation limit, that is, the edges at both ends of the toothed portion 861, thereby ensuring that the solar panel 7 rotates within a certain angle range and does not flip, and ensuring the stable operation of the solar panel 7 by setting the rotation limit and avoiding damage caused by excessive rotation.

[0054] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present disclosure is not limited to the specific details in the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present disclosure, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solutions of the present disclosure, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0055] In addition, it should be noted that, in the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments, they can be combined in any suitable manner without contradiction. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the present disclosure will not separately describe various possible combination methods.

[0056] In addition, any combination can be made between various different embodiments of the present disclosure as long as it does not violate the idea of the present disclosure, and it should also be regarded as the content disclosed by the present disclosure.
