The locking lever 4 is hinged to the locking bracket 3 via a self-tapping screw 5. The locking lever 4 is swingable relative to the locking bracket 3.

[0043] The second side 1602 of the door body 16 is provided with two door hooks 2, which are arranged vertically and cooperate with the interlocking lever 4 to open or close the door body 16;

[0044] The transmission module includes a motor bracket 14, a motor 15, a lever 9, and an eccentric wheel 12; the motor bracket 14 is arranged on the third side 1703 of the box body, the motor 15 is arranged on one side of the motor bracket 14, and the eccentric wheel 12 is arranged on the output rotating shaft of the motor 15 through a locking screw 11; the lever 9 is hinged to the motor bracket 14 through a lever fixing column 10, the first lever arm 901 of the lever 9 is located in the groove below the eccentric wheel 12, and the second lever arm 902 of the lever 9 is located below the trigger end 401 of the chain lever 4.

[0045] The second lever arm 902 of the lever 9 drives the chain lever 4 to swing relative to the chain bracket 3 by abutting or disengaging from the trigger end 401 of the chain lever 4. When the chain lever 4 swings to the first position, the action end 402 of the chain lever 4 disengages from the door hook 2. When the chain lever 4 swings to the second position, the door hook 2 is pressed above the action end 402 of the chain lever 4.

[0046] The interlocking bracket 3 is also provided with a first micro switch 6, a second micro switch 7 and a third micro switch 8; the first micro switch 6 is used to sense the position of the upper door hook 2; the second micro switch 7 and the third micro switch 8 are used to sense the swing position of the interlocking lever 4.
