[0027] The present utility model provides the following description with reference to the drawings to help a comprehensive understanding of various embodiments of the present utility model as defined by the claims and their equivalents. The description includes various specific details to facilitate understanding, but these details should be regarded as merely exemplary. Therefore, those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications can be made to the various embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of the present utility model.

[0028] In the description of the present utility model, orientation descriptions are involved. For example, the orientations or positional relationships indicated by up, down, front, back, left, right, etc. are based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the drawings. This is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0029] It should be understood that when an element (for example, the first element) is "connected" to another element (for example, the second element), the element can be directly connected to the other element, or there can be an intermediate element (for example, the third element) between the element and the other element.

[0030] An embodiment of the present utility model provides an electric energy meter structure that realizes spatial scalability, including:

[0031] The electric energy meter body 100, and the electric energy meter body 100 includes at least one connection structure 110.

[0032] The installation mechanism 200 is connected to the connection structure 110 and suspends and installs the electric energy meter body 100.

[0033] In the traditional installation method of the electric energy meter, the electric energy meter body 100 is usually directly fixed on the shell or panel of the electric cabinet. Although this installation method is simple and direct, in the case of a tight space in the electric cabinet, there are some limitations: The traditional installation method often only considers the planar layout of the electric energy meter and does not make full use of the vertical space of the electric cabinet. In the case of dense internal equipment and limited space in the electric cabinet, this may lead to space waste. When more electric energy meters or other devices need to be added to the electric cabinet, since the electric energy meter body 100 is fixed on the shell, it may be difficult to find a suitable installation position, restricting the expansion ability of the electric cabinet; The electric energy meter is directly installed on the shell and may be blocked by other devices, causing inconvenience to daily reading, maintenance, and replacement; The electric energy meters are densely installed on the electric cabinet shell, which may affect the heat dissipation effect, especially in a high-temperature environment, which may affect the performance and service life of the electric energy meter; Under the traditional installation method, once the position of the electric energy meter is determined, it is relatively difficult to adjust, which is not conducive to flexibly adjusting the internal layout of the electric cabinet according to actual needs.

[0034] This embodiment provides an electric energy meter structure that realizes spatial scalability. A connection structure 110 is provided on the electric energy meter body 100 and connected to the installation mechanism 200, so that the electric energy meter body 100 can be suspended and installed above the electric cabinet. Through the three-dimensional installation design of the electric energy meter body 100, the electric energy meters can be vertically stacked or horizontally arranged side by side, making full use of the three-dimensional space of the electric cabinet.

[0035] As an implementable mode, the installation mechanism 200 is a hook or a lifting ring on the electric cabinet. The electricity meter is cooperated with the installation mechanism 200 to achieve suspended installation. The hook or the lifting ring is fixed on the electric cabinet, and the connection structure 110 on the electricity meter body 100 is designed with a hole or a hook, and the electricity meter body 100 is hung on the hook or the lifting ring.

[0036] As an implementable mode, the installation mechanism 200 is a bracket. The electricity meter is cooperated with the installation mechanism 200 to achieve suspended installation. The bracket is designed in a "U" shape or an "L" shape and is connected and fixed to the bracket through the connection structure 110.

[0037] As an implementable mode, the installation mechanism 200 is a fixture. The electricity meter is cooperated with the installation mechanism 200 to achieve suspended installation. The fixture is designed with an adjustable opening to adapt to the connection structures 110 of electricity meters of different sizes. The fixture is fixed at an appropriate position, and then the connection structure 110 of the electricity meter is inserted into the fixture, and the screws or clips are tightened to ensure stability.

[0038] The electricity meter body 100 is suspended and installed by connecting the installation mechanism 200 with the connection structure 110. This means that the connection between the electricity meter body 100 and the electric cabinet can be made without using a direct connection method. The electricity meter body 100 is connected to the electric cabinet through the module of the installation mechanism 200. The installation mechanism 200 can be designed as a module for quick installation and disassembly, which simplifies the installation process, facilitates the operation of construction personnel, and also facilitates future maintenance and replacement; when more electricity meters or other devices need to be added to the electric cabinet, the modular installation mechanism 200 allows flexible addition of components without being limited by fixed installation points.

[0039] Through the suspended installation of the electricity meter body 100, the electricity meter no longer occupies the plane space of the electric cabinet, but utilizes the vertical space of the electric cabinet, effectively solving the problem of space shortage and improving the space utilization rate; the electricity meter can be flexibly added or removed without being limited by fixed housing installation, thus enhancing the expansion ability and adaptability of the electric cabinet; the suspended electricity meter is not easily blocked by other devices, facilitating daily reading, maintenance and replacement, and improving work efficiency and safety; the electricity meters are no longer densely installed on the housing, increasing the air circulation space and improving the heat dissipation effect, which helps to maintain the performance of the electricity meter and extend its service life in a high-temperature environment; the new installation structure allows the position of the electricity meter to be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs, enabling the internal layout of the electric cabinet to be optimized according to different usage scenarios and requirements.

[0040] Furthermore, the installation mechanism 200 includes:

[0041] A connection part 210, which is connected to the connection structure 110;

[0042] A fixing part 220, which is used for fixing at a specified position;

[0043] The extension part 230 connects the connection part 210 and the fixing part 220, so that there is an accommodating space 240 between the connection part 210 and the fixing part 220.

[0044] The connection part 210 is the part where the installation mechanism 200 contacts the connection structure 110 of the electricity meter body 100. It can include bolt holes, hooks or other interfaces for connecting and fixing with the connection structure 110; the fixing part 220 is the part where the installation mechanism 200 contacts the cabinet and is used to be fixed at a specified position; the extension part 230 is an intermediate structure connecting the connection part 210 and the fixing part 220, providing a spatial distance between the two. This extension part 230 can be straight or adjustable, allowing adjustment of the distance between the electricity meter and the electric cabinet; the design of the extension part 230 enables there to be a certain accommodating space 240 between the connection part 210 and the fixing part 220. This space can accommodate cables, terminal blocks or other necessary components, and at the same time can also provide an operating space for the installation and maintenance of the electricity meter; the installation mechanism 200 can be designed with adjustable components such as sliders or telescopic rods, allowing users to adjust the position of the electricity meter according to needs to adapt to different installation environments and layout requirements; the connection part 210 and the fixing part 220 can be designed to include quick installation or release mechanisms such as spring clips or buckles, making the installation and disassembly of the electricity meter more convenient and fast.

[0045] Further, the connection structure 110 is a snap structure 120, and the connection part 210 is connected in cooperation with the snap structure 120.

[0046] The snap structure 120 allows for the quick installation and disassembly of the electricity meter, improving the installation efficiency and simplifying the installation process; the snap structure 120 is designed to firmly lock the electricity meter to ensure the stability of the electricity meter in a suspended state and prevent accidental detachment; the snap structure 120 can be designed to be adjustable to adapt to electricity meters of different sizes and shapes, providing flexibility during installation.

[0047] Further, the extension part 230 is an extension plate 231 connecting the snap structure 120 and the fixing part 220. The extension plate 231 can be designed with cable management functions, enabling cable wiring to be hidden inside the plate and keeping the appearance neat.

[0048] Further, snap structures 120 are provided on both sides of the electricity meter body 100, and the connection part 210 is respectively connected in cooperation with the snap structures 120 on both sides of the electricity meter body 100.

[0049] The snap-fit structures 120 on both sides provide balanced supporting force, ensuring the stability of the electric energy meter when it is installed in the air, and reducing the tilt or deformation caused by unilateral force; the load is evenly distributed through the snap-fit structures 120 on both sides, reducing the pressure on the electric energy meter body 100 and avoiding local stress concentration; the user can quickly install or remove the electric energy meter by operating the snap-fit structures 120 on both sides at the same time, which simplifies the installation process.

[0050] Furthermore, the two connection parts 210 are connected by a connection plate 250 , and the connection plate 250 abuts against the bottom shell 130 of the electric energy meter body 100 .

[0051] The use of the connecting plate 250 provides a wider support base for the electric energy meter, enhancing the stability of the overall structure; the connecting plate 250 can evenly distribute the force from the two connecting parts 210 to the bottom shell 130 of the electric energy meter, reducing the pressure on local stress points; the two connecting parts 210 are connected at the same time by the connecting plate 250, which simplifies the installation process and only requires positioning and fixing the connecting plate 250 once; the connecting plate 250 provides additional rigidity, reducing the shaking of the electric energy meter when it is installed in the air.

[0052] In some embodiments, the buckle structure 120 is U-shaped. The buckle structure 120 includes a fixed end 121 and a free end 122 . The free end 122 includes a protrusion 123 .

[0053] The U-shaped buckle structure 120 provides a simple and effective locking mechanism. By pressing the protrusion 123, the installation mechanism 200 can be quickly unlocked, and the electric energy meter can be quickly disassembled, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0054] In some embodiments, the electric energy meter structure realizing spatial scalability of this embodiment further includes:

[0055] The external current transformer 300 and the electric energy meter body 100 are suspended and installed on the external current transformer 300 .

[0056] Installing the electric energy meter body 100 on the current transformer can optimize the use of vertical space in the electrical cabinet and reduce horizontal occupancy; this design allows the electric energy meter and the current transformer to be installed as an integrated unit, reducing the length of the connecting line connecting the current transformer and the electric energy meter, and simplifying the wiring and installation process; the suspended installation method provides the electric energy meter with more installation location options, which can be flexibly adjusted according to the layout of the current transformer.

[0057] Furthermore, the external current transformer 300 is sleeved on the conductor 400 , and the external current transformer 300 and the conductor 400 are arranged under the electric energy meter body 100 .

[0058] The wire 400 and the current transformer are arranged under the electricity meter, which facilitates the management and fixation of the wire 400 and keeps the wiring tidy; this layout allows the current transformer and the electricity meter to be compactly installed in a limited space, optimizing the use of space.

[0059] In some embodiments, the connection structure 110 is arranged on the bottom case 130 of the electricity meter body 100. The connection structure 110 being located on the bottom case 130 helps to concentrate the load distribution and reduce the stress on the structure of the electricity meter body 100.
