Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of distribution box protection, in particular to a flame-retardant structure of a distribution box. Background Technique

[0002] Distribution boxes are usually located in public areas of buildings or near important facilities. Once a fire breaks out, it will not only threaten the safety of personnel, but also quickly spread to other areas, resulting in property losses and casualties. Electrical fires are one of the common causes of fires globally, especially in residential, commercial buildings, and industrial sites. As the core equipment for power distribution and control, distribution boxes concentrate various electrical components such as circuit breakers, relays, and terminal blocks. These parts may generate high temperatures or electric arcs during current overload, short circuit, or equipment failure, thus triggering a fire. The flame-retardant structure can effectively slow down the development of the fire and buy precious time for personnel evacuation and fire fighting and rescue.

[0003] The existing flame-retardant structures of distribution boxes usually adopt a perfluoropentanone fire extinguishing system to monitor the inside of the distribution box. When a fire is detected, perfluoropentanone is sprayed inside the box body. After the perfluoropentanone is released, it quickly vaporizes, absorbs a large amount of heat, reduces the temperature of the fire scene, and at the same time dilutes the oxygen concentration to interrupt the combustion chain reaction. However, in order to ensure the heat dissipation performance, a distribution box needs to be provided with many heat dissipation slots. However, the setting of the heat dissipation slots will cause the vaporized perfluoropentanone to be released from the heat dissipation slots, and it is difficult to ensure the sealing of the box body during flame retardancy. Therefore, a flame-retardant structure of a distribution box is proposed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0029] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth to provide a thorough understanding of the present utility model. However, the present utility model may also be implemented in other manners different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without departing from the connotation of the present utility model. Therefore, the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0030] Secondly, the so-called "one embodiment" or "embodiment" herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation manner of the present utility model. The appearances of "in one embodiment" in different places in this specification do not all refer to the same embodiment, nor are they separate or alternative embodiments that are mutually exclusive of other embodiments.

[0031] Embodiment 1

[0032] Referring to Figure 1 - Figure 6 , which is the first embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment provides a flame-retardant structure for a distribution box, including a box body 1. A plurality of heat dissipation slots 101 are opened on both side walls of the box body 1. A sealing plate 402 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the heat dissipation slot 101. A positioning frame 401 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box body 1. A sliding slot 401a is opened on the inner wall of the positioning frame 401. The sealing plate 402 slides within the sliding slot 401a;

[0033] A fire extinguishing system 2, which includes a storage tank 201 installed on the outer wall of the box body 1, a conduit 202 connected to the gas outlet end of the storage tank 201, an electromagnetic valve 203 installed on the periphery of the conduit 202, and a temperature monitor 7 installed on the inner wall of the box body 1. The temperature monitor 7 is a linear heat detector, and a smoke detector and a flame detector can also be used;

[0034] An air jet assembly 3, which includes an air jet seat 301 fixed to the inner top wall of the box body 1, a communication slot 302 opened on the inner wall of the air jet seat 301, an annular push seat 303 slidably disposed within the communication slot 302, a connection to the annular push seat 303, and a return spring 304 installed between the annular push seat 303 and the communication slot 302. When the temperature monitor 7 detects the high temperature generated by an open fire, it will immediately activate the release of the perfluoroketone fire extinguishing system 2. The electromagnetic valve 203 is opened, enabling the fire extinguishing agent to be quickly released into the distribution cabinet through the air jet assembly 3 to quickly extinguish the fire;

[0035] The traction assembly includes a sliding assembly 5 installed at the annular push seat 303 and a traction rope 602 connected between the sealing plate 402 and the sliding assembly 5. When the fire extinguishing agent is quickly released through the nozzle 301, since it first passes through the annular push seat 303 and the aperture of the nozzle 301 is small, the annular push seat 303 moves downward under pressure, thereby driving the displacement of the traction rope 602. The displacement of the traction rope 602 drives the movement of the sealing plate 402, and the sealing plate 402 quickly blocks the heat dissipation slots 101, so that the box body 1 is in a sealed state at this time, isolating the entry of external oxygen, thereby enhancing the flame retardant effect and quickly extinguishing the fire.

[0036] Specifically, a plurality of through slots 402a are formed in the inner wall of the sealing plate 402, and the positions of the through slots 402a correspond to the heat dissipation slots 101. The sealing plate 402 is attached to the heat dissipation slots 101 for installation. When the sealing plate 402 is displaced, the through slots 402a are staggered from the heat dissipation slots 101, so that the heat dissipation slots 101 are in a sealed state.

[0037] Furthermore, a nozzle 301a is connected to the bottom surface of the jet seat 301, a connecting pipe 303a is connected to the bottom surface of the annular push seat 303, the connecting pipe 303a slides in the nozzle 301a, and the inner diameter of the annular push seat 303 is larger than that of the connecting pipe 303a.

[0038] Furthermore, the sliding assembly 5 includes a plurality of connecting slots 501 formed in the bottom wall of the jet seat 301, sliding rods 502 sliding in the connecting slots 501, a connecting block 503 connected between the sliding rods 502 and the annular push seat 303, and a connecting plate 504 fixed to the bottom surface of the sliding rods 502. A connecting ring 402b is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sealing plate 402, and a traction rope 602 is connected between the connecting plate 504 and the connecting ring 402b.

[0039] Furthermore, a plurality of suspension rods 601 are fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the box body 1. The traction rope 602 is connected to the connecting plate 504 through the suspension rods 601. By providing the suspension rods 601, the traction rope 602 can be attached to the inner wall of the box body 1 to prevent the traction rope 602 from blocking the components inside the box body 1.

[0040] Operation process: When the temperature monitor 7 detects the high temperature generated by an open fire, it will immediately activate the release of the perfluoromethylcyclohexanone fire extinguishing system 2. The solenoid valve 203 opens, allowing the fire extinguishing agent to be quickly released into the power distribution cabinet through the jet component 3. Since the inner diameter of the annular push seat 303 is larger than that of the connecting pipe 303a, the fire extinguishing agent in a high-pressure state inside the jet seat 301 is released through the connecting pipe 303a. The fire extinguishing agent in a high-pressure state pushes the annular push seat 303 to displace. The annular push seat 303 drives the slide bar 502 and the connecting plate 504 to move downward through the connecting block 503, thereby driving the traction rope 602 to move. The displacement of the traction rope 602 drives the sealing plate 402 to move. The sealing plate 402 quickly blocks the heat dissipation slots 101, so that the box body 1 is in a sealed state at this time, isolating the entry of external oxygen, thereby improving the flame retardant effect and quickly extinguishing the fire.

[0041] Appendix Figure 3 In the figure, the annular push seat 303 and the slide bar 502 are in a downward movement state. At this time, the sealing plate 402 moves upward to seal the heat dissipation slots 101.

[0042] Embodiment 2

[0043] Refer to Figure 1 - Figure 6 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. Different from the previous embodiment: A positioning component is provided between the slide bar 502 and the annular push seat 303. The positioning component includes a spring groove 502a opened on the side wall of the slide bar 502, a rotating plate 502b rotatably connected to the inner wall of the spring groove 502a, a memory spring 502c connected between the rotating plate 502b and the spring groove 502a, and a card slot 502d opened on the side wall of the communication groove 302; The rotating plate 502b is engaged with the card slot 502d. When the slide bar 502 follows the annular push seat 303 to move downward, the rotating plate 502b reaches the card slot 502d. At this time, the memory spring 502c resets and pops out the rotating plate 502b. After the rotating plate 502b pops out, it is located at the card slot 502d. When the slide bar 502 moves upward as the fire extinguishing agent release amount decreases, the rotating plate 502b abuts against the card slot 502d, so that the slide bar 502 is in a locked state after the fire extinguishing agent is released and moves downward, avoiding the situation that the annular push seat 303 rebounds due to the reset of the return spring 304, resulting in the reset of the sealing plate 402, so that the overall box body 1 remains in a closed state.

[0044] Specifically, a diversion seat 301b is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the communication groove 302. The diversion seat 301b diverts the fire extinguishing agent released into the communication groove 302, allowing the fire extinguishing agent to be sprayed at the annular push seat 303, so as to better displace the annular push seat 303 and improve the overall stability of the device structure.

[0045] All other structures are the same as those in Embodiment 1.

[0046] Operation process: When it is necessary to release the limit of the rotating plate 502b, open the box body 1 to repair the fire components inside the box body 1. After the repair is completed, the normal state is restored inside the box body 1. At this time, press the rotating plate 502b on both sides of the air jet seat 301 to press the rotating plate 502b into the spring groove 502a, and the rotating plate 502b disengages from the card slot 502d. At this time, the return spring 304 loses resistance and thus quickly resets, raising the position of the annular push seat 303. At this time, the sealing plate 402 moves downward to open the heat dissipation groove 101, keeping the box body 1 in a heat dissipation state; by setting the positioning component, after a fire occurs inside the box body 1, the sealing plate 402 can be quickly adjusted to the positioning state to prevent the sealing plate 402 from opening during the fire extinguishing process and affecting the fire extinguishing effect. And after the subsequent repair is completed, the positioning can be released to restore the sealing plate 402 to its original position and open the heat dissipation groove 101.

[0047] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and not to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and they should all be covered by the scope of the claims of the present invention.
