[0031] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a convenient and practical installation structure for an outdoor box, including a panel assembly 1 and a box assembly 2.
[0032] Specifically, one side of the panel assembly 1 is provided with a plurality of panel fixings 3; the plurality of panel fixings 3 are evenly distributed around the panel assembly 1; the box assembly 2 is provided with fixing holes 21 and support columns 22 that match the panel fixings 3; the support columns 22 are arranged corresponding to the fixing holes 21; the panel assembly 1 and the box assembly 2 are installed by fasteners 4 that pass through the fixing holes 21, the support columns 22 and the panel fixings 3 in sequence to form a closed box. By evenly distributing the panel fixings 3 around the panel assembly 1 and matching them with the fixing holes 21 and support columns 22 on the box assembly 2, the fasteners 4 are used to pass through these components in sequence for installation, thereby simplifying the installation steps and reducing the installation time. The design of evenly distributed panel fixings 3 and corresponding support columns 22 enhances the connection stability between the panel assembly 1 and the box assembly 2, making the box more solid and able to withstand the influence of harsh environments.
[0033] Preferably, the panel assembly 1 is made of a non-metallic material. Non-metallic materials are generally lighter than metal materials. Using non-metallic panels can significantly reduce the weight of the box, making it easier to transport and install. Non-metallic materials can be more easily processed into complex shapes and structures, providing more innovative design possibilities.
[0034] In a specific embodiment, if Figure 3-Figure 6As shown, the panel fixing member 3 includes a first fixing plate 31 and a second fixing plate 32 connected vertically.

[0038] In this embodiment, a predetermined gap is maintained between the support column 22 and the second fixing plate 32 to facilitate installation, that is, to help reduce the pre-tightening force required for the fastener 4 during installation, thereby reducing installation difficulty. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the predetermined gap can be set to a specific value based on actual needs.
[0039] Preferably, the first fixing plate 31 is connected to the panel assembly 1 by adhesion, which can realize more smooth and beautiful connection without punching holes on the panel assembly 1.
[0040] In the embodiment, the panel fixing member 3 has an L-shaped cross section; and the panel fixing member 3 is made of metal sheet. The L-shaped structure provides good stability and supporting force. The metal sheet generally has high strength and durability, and is suitable for bearing and supporting the panel assembly 1. It is known to those skilled in the art that the shape of the panel fixing member 3 can also be other shapes except the embodiment, as long as the same effect is achieved.
[0041] In a specific embodiment, the panel assembly 1 is provided with a sealing strip around the periphery. Specifically, during installation, the panel assembly 1 is sealed along the side edge of the box assembly 2 by the sealing strip. Good sealing performance is provided to prevent moisture and dust from entering the inside of the box.
[0042] In an embodiment, the fastener 4 is provided with a sealing gasket for sealing the box and the fastener 4 during installation. The sealing gasket can provide tight fit between the box assemblies 2, enhance the sealing performance of the box, and also prevent leakage at the position of the fastener 4, thereby improving the protection performance of the overall box.
[0043] It is known to those skilled in the art that the specific sizes of the box assembly 2, the panel assembly 1 and the panel fixing member 3 can be set according to actual needs.
[0044] In the embodiment, the box assembly 2 can have a receiving cavity, the panel assembly 1 of non-metal material is clamped to the opening of the receiving cavity, and then the fastener 4 is sequentially threaded through the fixing hole 21, the supporting column 22 and the panel fixing member 3, so that the installation of the panel assembly 1 and the box assembly 2 is realized, which is simple and convenient to operate.
