Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of control boxes, in particular to an extended structure of a modular iron tower control box. Background Technique
[0002] With the continuous development of information technology and communication technology, communication iron towers play a crucial role in modern communication networks. These iron towers not only need to carry a large number of communication antennas, but also need to be equipped with various electronic devices and control systems to support stable signal transmission and network management. Usually, these devices and systems are installed in the control box at the base or around the iron tower.
[0003] The existing communication iron tower control boxes are usually fixedly installed on the mounting rack at the bottom of the iron tower, and each mounting rack can usually only accommodate one iron tower control box. This traditional installation method can meet the requirements when the number of communication devices is small, but with the rapid development of communication technology, the types and quantities of devices to be installed on the iron tower are increasing continuously.
[0004] When the communication devices on the iron tower increase, the internal space of the original iron tower control box may not be sufficient to accommodate the newly added devices. At this time, it is often necessary to add a new iron tower control box. However, due to the design limitations of the traditional mounting rack, the newly added control box cannot be closely installed together with the original control box, but needs to be separately set at a new position. Since multiple iron tower control boxes are installed dispersedly, when maintenance personnel conduct equipment inspection and maintenance, they need to move between different positions, increasing the workload and time cost. Especially in bad weather or night operations, this inconvenience is more prominent. In view of this, we propose an extended structure of a modular iron tower control box. Content of the Utility Model
[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide an extended structure of a modular iron tower control box to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1-8 , the present utility model provides a technical solution:
[0034] The modular tower control box expansion structure includes a main control box 1. The main control box 1 is the core component of the entire modular control system and is used to accommodate and manage the main communication and control devices. Both the left and right sides of the main control box 1 are connected with secondary control boxes 2 through connectors 5. The secondary control box 2 is used to expand the storage and management capabilities of the main control box 1. When the communication devices increase, it can accommodate the newly added devices. A new secondary control box 2 can also be connected to the side of the secondary control box 2 away from the main control box 1 through the connector 5, so as to achieve the expansion effect;

The second rectangular insert rod 54 is slidably connected within the rectangular horizontal pipe 50 and is used to be inserted into the second rectangular positioning slot 41 to achieve further positioning and fixation. Thus, the relative positions of the connector 5, the first connecting plate 3, and the second connecting plate 4 are fixed, and further the connection and fixation of the main control box 1 and the sub-control box 2 are realized.
[0038] In this embodiment, L-shaped mounting plates 10 are provided at positions near the upper and lower sides on the rear side of the main control box 1. The L-shaped mounting plates 10 are installed on the mounting frame at the bottom of the iron tower through bolts. The L-shaped mounting plates 10 are used to fix the main control box 1 on the mounting frame at the bottom of the iron tower and provide stable support.
[0039] Specifically, two circular sleeve blocks 20 arranged symmetrically left and right are provided at the bottom of the sub-control box 2. The two circular sleeve blocks 20 are jointly connected with a detachable support assembly 6, which is used to support and stabilize the sub-control box 2 to ensure its balance during the expansion process.
[0040] Further, the support assembly 6 includes a support top plate 60. Two circular positioning blocks 600 arranged symmetrically left and right are provided at the top of the support top plate 60. The two circular positioning blocks 600 are respectively inserted into the two circular sleeve blocks 20. The support top plate 60 is connected to the circular sleeve blocks 20 through the circular positioning blocks 600 to provide support for the sub-control box 2.
[0041] Further, the support assembly 6 further includes a support bottom plate 61. A threaded inner tube 63 is provided in the middle of the top of the support bottom plate 61. A threaded rod 62 is rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom of the support top plate 60. The threaded rod 62 is threadedly connected to the threaded inner tube 63. The threaded rod 62 is connected to the threaded inner tube 63, and by rotating to adjust the height, the adjustment and support fixation of the sub-control box 2 are realized.
[0042] Further, a rotating wheel 66 is provided at a position near the top of the outer wall of the threaded rod 62, which is used to rotate the threaded rod 62 to adjust the overall height of the support assembly 6 and ensure effective support for the sub-control box 2.
[0043] Furthermore, two fixedly arranged vertical tubes 65 which are symmetrically arranged left and right are provided on the top of the supporting bottom plate 61, and two positioning vertical rods 64 which are symmetrically arranged left and right are provided on the bottom of the supporting top plate 60. The two positioning vertical rods 64 are respectively slidably connected in the two fixedly arranged vertical tubes 65 to maintain the stability of the supporting assembly 6.
[0044] When the modular iron tower control box expansion structure of this embodiment is in use, when it is necessary to add the secondary control box 2, the staff uses the connecting piece 5 to connect the secondary control box 2 to one side of the main control box 1. Specifically, the staff first move the two dial blocks 55 relatively, the spring 56 is compressed, then insert the first T-shaped block 51 of the connecting piece 5 into the first T-shaped slot 30, and insert the second T-shaped block 52 into the second T-shaped slot 40. Then release the two dial blocks 55. Under the action of the spring 56, the two dial blocks 55 move back to their original positions, respectively driving the first rectangular insertion rod 53 and the second rectangular insertion rod 54 to move away from each other, so that the right end of the first rectangular insertion rod 53 is inserted into the first rectangular positioning groove 31, and the left end of the second rectangular insertion rod 54 is inserted into the second rectangular positioning groove 41, thereby fixing the relative positions of the connecting piece 5, the first connecting plate 3 and the second connecting plate 4, realizing the connection and fixation of the main control box 1 and the secondary control box 2. After that, the staff insert the two circular positioning blocks 600 of the supporting assembly 6 into the two circular sleeve blocks 20 respectively, and then rotate the rotating wheel 66. The rotating wheel 66 drives the threaded rod 62 to rotate, and the threaded rod 62 pushes the internally threaded tube 63 to move downward until the bottom of the supporting bottom plate 61 abuts against the ground, so that the supporting assembly 6 plays an effective supporting role on the secondary control box 2, reducing the supporting pressure of the connecting piece 5 and improving the stability of the secondary control box 2 after expansion.
