Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of generators, and more specifically, to a generator set. Background Art
[0002] The generator set includes components such as a frame 1', an engine 5', a generator 2', an electric control box 4' and a panel 3', as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 2 . The main body of the frame 1' of the engine set is made of metal tubular material and is generally a rectangular parallelepiped-shaped frame. Components such as the engine 5', the generator 2' and the electric control box 4' are installed in the internal space of the frame 1' and are supported and protected by the frame 1'.

The electric control box 4' mainly plays the role of controlling the generator 2' and outputting electric energy. Various control components are installed in the electric control box 4'; in addition, the electric control box 4' is used in cooperation with the panel 3'. Electric control components 31' such as switches, indicator lights, sockets, and circuit breakers are installed on the panel 3', which is convenient for operating the generator 2'.
[0003] In the current generator set, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , the electric control box 4' and the panel 3' are installed at the side position on one side of the frame 1'. The electric control box 4' and the panel 3' are connected and fixed to the frame 1' through connectors, so that the panel 3' can directly face the outside of the frame 1', which is convenient for users to operate the panel 3'. However, due to the electric control box 4' having a certain width dimension, there may be a position interference between the electric control box 4' and the engine 5' during installation, and it is necessary to increase the size of the frame 1', resulting in an increase in the overall size of the engine set. In some engine sets, this is solved by setting a relief chamfer at the part of the electric control box 4', but this will affect the internal cavity of the electric control box 4' and increase the design difficulty of the electric control box 4'.
[0004] Therefore, a new solution needs to be proposed to solve this problem. Content of the Utility Model

Detailed Embodiment
[0029] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0030] This embodiment discloses a generator set. Referring to Figures 3 - 7 as shown, it includes a frame 1, as well as components such as an engine 5, a generator 2, and an electric control box 4. The overall generator set is supported and protected by the frame 1. The main body of the frame 1 is a tubular frame 1, which is generally in a cuboid structure; components such as the engine 5, the generator 2, and the electric control box 4 in the generator set are all installed inside the frame 1.
[0031] In a generating set, the engine 5 drives the generator 2 to work, thereby realizing power generation; the control components of the generating set and various circuits after power generation are installed in the electric control box 4, which mainly plays a role in controlling the generating set. The specific structure and working principle are prior art and will not be elaborated here.
[0032] In this embodiment, the electric control box 4 is fixedly installed at the upper position of the generator 2. The electric control box 4 and the generator 2 form an up-and-down stacked structure, borrowing the space above the generator 2 to accommodate components such as the electric control box 4 and the panel 3 of the electric control box 4, reducing the size of the generator 2 in the width direction, and thus being able to reduce the size of the frame 1 of the generator 2 and the overall outline of the generator 2.
[0033] The outside of the electric control box 4 has several box plates, and the box plates enclose to form the electric control box 4. At least one box plate of the electric control box 4 serves as the panel 3 of the electric control box 4, and the electric control components 31 required for the electric control box 4 can be installed on the panel 3 to meet the use requirements of the generating set. Generally, the electric control components 31 of the electric control box 4 include components such as sockets, circuit breakers, switches, displays, and indicator lights. Any model of electric control components 31 can be installed at the panel 3 as needed as long as it meets the overall requirements of the generating set.
[0034] In the generating set, the shape of the electric control box 4 can adopt various structures. For example, it can be generally in the structure of a cuboid, a cylinder, or a structure with a partial arc and a partial cuboid, as long as it can meet the installation of the control components and circuits in the generating set. In this embodiment, the electric control box 4 is described by taking the structure of a cuboid as an example.
[0035] The box plate in the side direction of the electric control box 4 serves as the panel 3, and the electric control components 31 required for the electric control box 4 can be directly installed on the panel 3. There is no need to additionally install a panel 3 structure outside the electric control box 4, which can save installation space and make greater use of the structure inside the frame 1.
[0036] Limited by the space inside the frame 1, the box plate on the lower side of the electric control box 4 is close to the generator 2 and needs to be connected to the installation bracket 40 and cannot be used as the panel 3. One side of the electric control box 4 is close to the engine 5, and it cannot be used as the panel 3 due to the small distance. In this embodiment, the box plates on three sides of the electric control box 4 serve as the panel 3, and three panels 3 are formed outside the electric control box 4, which can install different electric control components 31.
[0037] Furthermore, the engine 5 has an exhaust section 51 which discharges relatively high-temperature exhaust gas outward as the engine 5 operates. According to the overall layout structure of the generator set, a part of the panel 3 of the electric control box 4 will be located inside the frame 1. The exhaust section 51 of the engine 5 may be close to the part of the panel 3, and the exhaust gas discharged by the exhaust section 51 may affect the panel 3.
[0038] To avoid the exhaust gas discharged by the engine 5 from affecting the panel 3 of the electric control box 4, a baffle 6 is installed on the outer side of the exhaust section 51. The baffle 6 can be fixed by connecting components such as bolts. The baffle 6 is located on the side of the exhaust section 51 close to the electric control box 4, blocking the exhaust gas discharged by the exhaust section 51, preventing the high-temperature exhaust gas from directly blowing onto the surface of the panel 3, extending the service life of the panel 3, and also avoiding the danger of scalding during operation.
[0039] Specifically, the electric control box 4 can be fixedly installed directly above the generator 2 through the mounting bracket 40, so that the orthographic projections of the electric control box 4 and the generator 2 on the horizontal plane can coincide, reducing the space occupied in the horizontal direction. Through the mounting bracket 40 and bolts, the installation and fixation of the electric control box 4 can be achieved.
[0040] Refer to Figure 8 As shown, the mounting bracket 40 can adopt a split structure, divided into two parts, namely the first bracket 41 and the second bracket 42. Outside the housing of the generator 2, a first connecting portion 21 and a second connecting portion 22 are fixed, forming a fixed support on the upper part of the outer shell of the generator 2. Both the first bracket 41 and the second bracket 42 are fixedly connected to the lower part of the electric control box 4, and specifically, bolts can be used for locking and fixing.
[0041] The first bracket 41 is fixedly connected to the first connecting portion 21 through the first bolt 211. The first bolt 211 is relatively long and can penetrate through the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22. The two ends are respectively limited and fixed by the bolt head and the nut, which can play a role in connecting the housing of the generator 2. At the same time, the first bolt 211 can also penetrate through the through hole of the first bracket 41, and the first bracket 41 can be pressed and fixed between the first connecting portion 21 and the bolt head of the first bolt 211.
[0042] The second bracket 42 is fixedly connected to the second connecting portion 22 through the second bolt 221. During installation, the second bolt 221 penetrates through the second bracket 42 and is threadedly connected to the second connecting portion 22. The bolt head of the second bolt 221 can press and fix the second bracket 42 at the second connecting portion 22, thereby realizing the installation and fixation of the second bracket 42.
[0043] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the concept of the present utility model belong to the protection scope of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, several improvements and refinements made without departing from the principle of the present utility model should also be regarded as within the protection scope of the present utility model.
