Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of switch protection covers, in particular to a dustproof and waterproof outdoor switch protection cover. Background Art
[0002] A switch is a network device used to forward electrical (optical) signals. It can provide an exclusive electrical signal path for any two network nodes connected to the switch. The most common switch is the Ethernet switch. When the switch is placed outdoors, a protective cover is required to protect it.
[0003] Common outdoor switch protective covers only have waterproof and dustproof functions, which can protect the switch, but lack waterproof and flood-proof functions. There is no guarantee that the protective cover will not be flooded. It is easy for the switch to be placed where it rains heavily, resulting in excessive water on the ground and submerging the protective cover. As a result, rainwater enters the heat dissipation slot of the protective cover and submerges the switch, affecting the safety of the switch.
[0004] Therefore, in view of the fact that the above-mentioned outdoor switch protective cover lacks the function of preventing flooding, a dustproof and waterproof outdoor switch protective cover can be designed. By setting a foam float with a density smaller than that of water, it floats on the water surface during the rising water level. The foam float drives the protective cover body to move upward away from the water surface through the sealing float plate. While the protective cover body moves upward, the limit block moves upward along the direction of the limit rod, thereby limiting the moving trajectory of the protective cover body and preventing the protective cover body from shaking when moving upward, thereby ensuring that the protective cover body will not be flooded. Utility Model Content
[0005] In order to overcome the problem that common outdoor switch protective covers lack waterproof function, it is impossible to guarantee that the protective covers will not be flooded. It is easy for the switch to be placed where there is heavy rain, resulting in excessive water on the ground and submerging the protective cover. As a result, rainwater enters the heat dissipation slot of the protective cover and submerges the switch, affecting the safety of the switch.
[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is: a dustproof and waterproof outdoor switch protective cover, including a protective cover body; also including a connecting block, a sealing gasket, a sealing floating plate, a foam floating block, a limit block and a supporting bottom frame, two connecting blocks are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the bottom of the left and right sides of the protective cover body, a sealing gasket is arranged at the bottom of the protective cover body, a sealing floating plate is arranged below the sealing gasket, the connecting block is fixed to the sealing floating plate by bolts, a foam floating block is arranged in the middle of the bottom of the sealing floating plate, four limit blocks are arranged at equal intervals at the four corners of the top of the protective cover body, and a supporting bottom frame is arranged below the foam floating block.
[0007] Preferably, a foam float with a density smaller than that of water is set to float on the water surface during the rising water level. The foam float drives the protective cover body to move upward away from the water surface through the sealing float plate. While the protective cover body moves upward, the limit block moves upward along the direction of the limit rod, thereby limiting the movement trajectory of the protective cover body to prevent the protective cover body from shaking when moving upward, thereby ensuring that the protective cover body will not be flooded. This solves the problem that common outdoor switch protective covers only include waterproof and dustproof functions, which can prevent the switch from being protected, but lack waterproof and flooding functions, and cannot ensure that the protective cover will not be flooded. It is easy for the switch to be placed where there is heavy rain, resulting in excessive water on the ground to submerge the protective cover, thereby causing rainwater to enter the interior of the protective cover from the heat dissipation slot and submerge the switch, affecting the safety of the switch.
[0008] Preferably, four limit rods are set at equal intervals at the positions of the four limit blocks at the four corners of the top of the supporting bottom frame. The top ends of the limit rods pass through the sealing float and the limit blocks and are placed above the protective cover body. When the rain is too heavy and there is too much water on the ground, the foam floats with a density smaller than that of water float on the water surface during the rising water level. The foam floats drive the protective cover body to move upward away from the water surface through the sealing float. When the protective cover body moves upward, the limit blocks move upward along the direction of the limit rods, so as to limit the moving trajectory of the protective cover body and prevent the protective cover body from shaking when it moves upward.
[0009] Preferably, a M-shaped reinforcement rib is welded inside the supporting bottom frame, and four ground nails are arranged at equal intervals at the four corners of the bottom of the supporting bottom frame. The supporting bottom frame is placed on the ground and the ground nails are inserted into the ground to fix the position of the supporting bottom frame.
[0010] Preferably, the front of the protective cover is movably connected to a sealing door via a hinge, and a handle is provided in the middle of the top of the protective cover. After the support bottom frame is fixed, the sealing door is opened and the switch is placed inside the protective cover.
[0011] Preferably, two heat dissipation slots are symmetrically provided in the middle of the left and right sides of the protective cover body, and dustproof nets are provided on the inner sides of the two heat dissipation slots. During daily use, the heat generated by the switch will be discharged from the inside of the protective cover body through the two heat dissipation slots, while the dustproof nets will block external dust and prevent external dust from entering the inside of the protective cover body.
[0012] Preferably, two waterproof baffles are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the left and right sides of the protective cover body corresponding to the positions of the two heat dissipation slots. The waterproof baffles block rainwater to prevent rainwater from entering the interior of the protective cover body through the heat dissipation slots when falling.
[0013] Preferably, a plurality of connecting wire holes are arranged at equal intervals on the lower rear side of the protective cover body, and a wire hole sealing ring is provided on the inner side of the connecting wire holes. After the switch is placed inside the protective cover body, the external connecting wires are passed through the connecting wire holes to connect to the switch.
[0014] Beneficial effects of the utility model:
[0015] 1. By setting a foam float with a density smaller than that of water, the foam float floats on the water surface during the rising water level. The foam float drives the protective cover body to move upward away from the water surface through the sealing float plate. While the protective cover body moves upward, the limit block moves upward along the direction of the limit rod, thereby limiting the movement trajectory of the protective cover body to prevent the protective cover body from shaking when moving upward, thereby ensuring that the protective cover body will not be flooded. This solves the problem that the common outdoor switch protective cover only includes waterproof and dustproof functions, which can prevent the switch from being protected, but lacks waterproof and flooding functions, and cannot ensure that the protective cover will not be flooded. It is easy for the switch to be placed where there is heavy rain, resulting in excessive water on the ground and submerging the protective cover, thereby causing rainwater to enter the protective cover from the heat dissipation slot and submerge the switch, affecting the safety of the switch.

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0023] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 The utility model provides an embodiment: a dustproof and waterproof outdoor switch protective cover, comprising a protective cover body 1; further comprising a connecting block 2, a sealing gasket 3, a sealing floating plate 4, a foam floating block 5, a limiting block 6 and a supporting bottom frame 7. Two connecting blocks 2 are symmetrically arranged in the middle of the bottom on both sides of the protective cover body 1, a sealing gasket 3 is arranged at the bottom of the protective cover body 1, a sealing floating plate 4 is arranged below the sealing gasket 3, the connecting block 2 is fixed to the sealing floating plate 4 by bolts, a foam floating block 5 is arranged in the middle of the bottom of the sealing floating plate 4, four limiting blocks 6 are arranged at equal intervals at the four corners of the top of the protective cover body 1, and a supporting bottom frame 7 is arranged below the foam floating block 5. By arranging the foam floating block 5 with a density smaller than that of water, it floats on the water surface during the rising water level. The foam block 5 drives the protective cover body 1 to move upward away from the water surface through the sealing float plate 4. While the protective cover body 1 moves upward, the limit block 6 moves upward along the direction of the limit rod 8, so as to limit the moving trajectory of the protective cover body 1 and prevent the protective cover body 1 from shaking when moving upward, thereby ensuring that the protective cover body 1 will not be flooded, so as to solve the problem that the common outdoor switch protective cover only includes waterproof and dustproof functions, which can prevent the switch from being protected, but lacks waterproof and flooding functions, and cannot ensure that the protective cover will not be flooded. It is easy for the switch to be placed where there is heavy rain, resulting in excessive water on the ground to submerge the protective cover, thereby causing rainwater to enter the interior of the protective cover from the heat dissipation slot 13 and submerge the switch, affecting the safety of the switch.
[0024] See also Figure 2-Figure 5In this embodiment, a M-shaped reinforcing rib 9 is welded inside the supporting bottom frame 7, and four ground nails 10 are evenly spaced at the four corners of the bottom of the supporting bottom frame 7. The front of the protective cover body 1 is movably connected to a sealed door 11 through a hinge, and a handle 12 is provided in the middle of the top of the protective cover body 1. Two heat dissipation grooves 13 are symmetrically opened in the middle of the left and right sides of the protective cover body 1. A dustproof net 14 is provided on the inner side of the two heat dissipation grooves 13. Two waterproof baffles 15 are symmetrically provided in the middle of the left and right sides of the protective cover body 1 corresponding to the positions of the two heat dissipation grooves 13. A number of connecting wire holes 16 are evenly spaced at the lower rear side of the interior of the protective cover body 1, and a wire hole sealing ring 17 is provided on the inner side of the connecting wire hole 16. The bottom frame 7 is placed on the ground, and then the ground nails 10 are inserted into the ground to fix the position of the supporting bottom frame 7. After the supporting bottom frame 7 is fixed, the sealing door 11 is opened, and the switch is placed inside the protective cover body 1. After the switch is placed inside the protective cover body 1, the external connecting wire is passed through the connecting wire hole 16 to connect to the switch. During daily use, the heat generated by the switch will be discharged from the inside of the protective cover body 1 through the two heat dissipation grooves 13, and the dustproof net 14 blocks the external dust to prevent the external dust from entering the inside of the protective cover body 1. The waterproof baffle 15 blocks the rainwater to prevent the rainwater from entering the inside of the protective cover body 1 through the heat dissipation grooves 13 when falling, thereby completing the waterproof and dustproof work.
[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 In this embodiment, four limiting rods 8 are set at equal intervals at the positions of the four limiting blocks 6 at the four corners of the top of the supporting bottom frame 7. The top ends of the limiting rods 8 pass through the sealing floating plate 4 and the limiting blocks 6 and are placed above the protective cover body 1. When the rain is too heavy and causes too much water to accumulate on the ground, the foam floating blocks 5 with a density smaller than that of water float on the water surface during the rising water level. The foam floating blocks 5 drive the protective cover body 1 to move upward away from the water surface through the sealing floating plate 4. When the protective cover body 1 moves upward, the limiting blocks 6 move upward along the direction of the limiting rods 8, thereby limiting the movement trajectory of the protective cover body 1 and preventing the protective cover body 1 from shaking when moving upward, thereby achieving the function of waterproofing and preventing the switch from being placed in a place where the rain is heavy and causes too much water to accumulate on the ground and submerge the protective cover, thereby causing rainwater to enter the protective cover from the heat dissipation slot 13 and submerge the switch, affecting the safety of the switch.
[0026] When working, place the support bottom frame 7 on the ground, and then insert the ground nails 10 into the ground to fix the position of the support bottom frame 7. After the support bottom frame 7 is fixed, open the sealing door 11 and place the switch inside the protective cover body 1. After the switch is placed inside the protective cover body 1, the external connection line passes through the connection line hole 16 to connect to the switch. In daily use, the heat generated by the switch will be discharged from the inside of the protective cover body 1 through the two heat dissipation slots 13, and the dustproof net 14 blocks the external dust to prevent the external dust from entering the interior of the protective cover body 1. The waterproof baffle 15 blocks rainwater to prevent it from entering the interior of the protective cover body 1 through the heat dissipation groove 13 when falling. When the rain is too heavy and causes too much water on the ground, the foam float 5, which has a smaller density than water, floats on the water surface during the rising water level. The foam float 5 drives the protective cover body 1 to move upward away from the water surface through the sealing float 4. While the protective cover body 1 moves upward, the limit block 6 moves upward along the direction of the limit rod 8, thereby limiting the moving trajectory of the protective cover body 1 and preventing the protective cover body 1 from shaking when moving upward, thereby achieving the function of preventing flooding.
[0027] Through the above steps, by setting the foam float 5 with a density smaller than that of water to float on the water surface during the rising water level, the foam float 5 drives the protective cover body 1 to move upward away from the water surface through the sealing float plate 4. While the protective cover body 1 moves upward, the limit block 6 moves upward along the direction of the limit rod 8, thereby limiting the movement trajectory of the protective cover body 1 to prevent the protective cover body 1 from shaking when moving upward, thereby ensuring that the protective cover body 1 will not be flooded, so as to solve the problem that the common outdoor switch protective cover only includes waterproof and dustproof functions, which can prevent the switch from being protected, but lacks waterproof and flooding functions, and cannot ensure that the protective cover will not be flooded. It is easy for the switch to be placed where there is heavy rain, resulting in excessive water on the ground to submerge the protective cover, thereby causing rainwater to enter the interior of the protective cover from the heat dissipation slot 13 and submerge the switch, affecting the safety of the switch.
