Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present utility model provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed present utility model, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present utility model.

[0023] Embodiment

[0024] Combined with Figures 1 to 4 , this embodiment provides an interlocking device for a cabinet door, including a plastic shell base 1, a limit plate 2, and a driving plate 3. The driving plate 3 is rotatably hinged to the plastic shell base 1, and is provided with a pressing portion 4 and a transmission portion 5. The limit plate 2 is movably arranged on the plastic shell base 1 through an elastic member 6, and is provided with a locking tongue portion 7 that can be exposed outside the plastic shell base 1 or hidden inside the plastic shell base 1. When the pressing portion 4 is pressed, it correspondingly drives the transmission portion 5 to move, so as to trigger the limit plate 2 to press the elastic member 6 to move, and make its locking tongue portion 7 switch from the initial position to the avoidance position.

[0025] For the above interlocking device, after the cabinet door is closed, it presses the pressing portion 4 to correspondingly drive the transmission portion 5, and further acts on the limit plate 2, so that the switching operation is simple and intuitive, and unlocking or locking can be quickly completed. Moreover, when the cabinet door is closed, it ensures that the position of the locking tongue portion 7 can be switched to trigger the unlocking of the limit plate 2, and when the cabinet door is opened, it resets to the initial position for locking, thereby ensuring that maintenance operations can be carried out more safely and reliably after the cabinet door is opened, and the movement control of the turning gear can only be carried out after the cabinet door is closed.

[0026] In this embodiment, the pressing portion 4 is formed at the upper end of the driving plate 3, the transmission portion 5 is formed at the lower end of the driving plate 3, and the overall shape is V-shaped. On the one hand, the V-shaped structure enhances the stability of the driving plate 3, making the force transmission between the pressing portion 4 and the transmission portion 5 more uniform. On the other hand, the space inside the plastic shell base 1 can be better utilized, making the overall design more compact.

[0027] Further, a hinge seat 8 is formed at the rear of the plastic shell base 1, and the middle part of the V shape is connected to the hinge seat 8 through a hinge shaft. Through the connection of the hinge shaft, the V-shaped structure can rotate or tilt within a certain range, making it easier to adapt to different operating angles and position requirements. Moreover, the connection method between the hinge seat 8 and the hinge shaft helps to disperse the stress of the V-shaped structure during the working process, reduce local stress concentration, and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0028] In this embodiment, the pressing part 4 is configured as a flexible roller structure. In the initial position, the upper half of the V shape is inclined and arranged outside the plastic shell base 1. Among them, the flexible roller structure can reduce the friction during the pressing process, make the operation smoother and more fluent, and improve the user experience. In addition, the upper half of the V shape is inclined and arranged outside the plastic shell base 1, so that the pressing part 4 is easier to contact the object to be pressed in the initial position, improving the operation efficiency.

[0029] In this embodiment, the plastic shell base 1 is provided with a movable cavity penetrating through the bottom, and the limiting plate 2 and its elastic member 6 are correspondingly arranged in the movable cavity. In the initial position, the elastic member 6 correspondingly provides an elastic force for the limiting plate 2 to maintain in the locked state. After closing the cabinet door, the driving plate 3 is pressed to drive the limiting plate 2 to move against the elastic member 6, and at this time, the lock tongue part 7 switches to the avoidance position to maintain in the unlocked state. Obviously, the limiting plate 2 is controlled to move in the movable cavity. After opening the cabinet door to release the corresponding pressing, under the action of the elastic member 6, the limiting plate 2 quickly resets to the initial position.

[0030] It should be understood that when the lock tongue part 7 is in the initial position, it correspondingly locks the external screw rod to prevent it from rotating and driving the chassis truck to move, ensuring the stability of the electrical appliances in the switch cabinet. When the lock tongue part 7 switches to the avoidance position, it correspondingly unlocks so that the screw rod can be rotated externally to drive the chassis.

[0031] Further, an opening communicating with the movable cavity is provided in the front of the plastic shell base 1, and the opening allows the lock tongue part 7 to reciprocate and is partially exposed outside the opening in the initial position. Obviously, a limiting structure is correspondingly provided on the base to limit the lock tongue part 7 in the initial position, so as to realize the flexible reciprocating movement of the lock tongue part 7 at the movable cavity and the opening.

[0032] In this embodiment, the limiting plate 2 is provided with a clamping groove 9 that abuts against the transmission part 5, and at least part of the transmission part 5 extends into the clamping groove 9 and abuts against the groove wall for cooperation. The precise abutment between the clamping groove 9 on the limiting plate 2 and the transmission part 5 enables the transmission part 5 to effectively drive the limiting plate 2 to move, realize the switching of the lock tongue part 7, and ensure the high-efficiency and reliability of the transmission process.

[0033] Wherein, the elastic member 6 is sleeved on the rear section of the limiting plate 2 and abuts against the rear side wall of the plastic housing base 1, and the engaging groove 9 is located in front of the elastic member 6. Thus, after the pressing part 4 is pressed, the limiting plate 2 is correspondingly driven to press backward against the elastic member 6, and the locking tongue part 7 located in the front correspondingly moves backward to the avoidance position, correspondingly realizing the unlocking operation.

[0034] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the idea of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
