Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power distribution cabinet technology, and in particular to an outdoor power distribution cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Outdoor distribution cabinets are low-voltage power distribution devices used in power supply systems to receive and distribute electrical energy. They are typically installed outdoors and used to control streetlights, substations, and other similar facilities. Equipped with various electrical devices, outdoor distribution cabinets can receive electrical energy from the power grid and distribute it as needed to meet the power requirements of outdoor facilities such as streetlights and substations.

[0003] During rainy weather, high humidity can cause condensation inside distribution cabinets. Condensation is formed when water vapor in the air condenses on the cooling surfaces inside the cabinet, creating water droplets. These droplets can come into contact with electrical components, causing short circuits, corrosion, and other problems, thus affecting the normal operation of the distribution cabinet. When a distribution cabinet malfunctions during rainy weather, timely repairs of the internal components are necessary to ensure normal power supply. However, repairs require opening the cabinet door, which not only obstructs the view of repair personnel but also allows rainwater to easily enter the cabinet, increasing the difficulty of repairs. Therefore, an outdoor distribution cabinet is needed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to at least solve one of the aforementioned technical defects.

[0005] Therefore, one objective of this utility model is to provide an outdoor power distribution cabinet to solve the problems mentioned in the background art and overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, one embodiment of this utility model provides an outdoor power distribution cabinet, including a cabinet body. A cabinet door is rotatably connected to the front of the cabinet body via hinges. Two supports are fixedly mounted on the top of the cabinet body via bolts. A frame is slidably connected between the two supports. A pin is fixedly connected to the side of the frame, and the pin is slidably connected to the support. A top plate is fixedly mounted on the top of the frame via bolts. A partition plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame. Two extension plates are slidably connected to the inner wall of the frame, and the two extension plates are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the partition plate. A fastening bolt is threadedly connected to the top of the top plate, and the bottom of the fastening bolt abuts against the extension plate. A spring is fixedly connected to the top of the frame, and a pull plate is fixedly connected to the top of the spring. A locking post is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the pull plate, and the locking post is locked to the cabinet body.

[0007] Preferably, in any of the above solutions, the top surface of the cabinet is provided with two sets of snap-fit ​​holes, and the two sets of snap-fit ​​holes are linearly arrayed on the top surface of the cabinet. The snap-fit ​​post is snapped into the cabinet through the snap-fit ​​holes.

[0008] Preferably, in any of the above embodiments, the snap-fit ​​post is located inside the spring, and the snap-fit ​​post is slidably connected to the frame.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0022] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an outdoor power distribution cabinet includes a cabinet body 1. The front of the cabinet body 1 is rotatably connected to a cabinet door 101 via a hinge. Two brackets 2 are fixedly installed on the top of the cabinet body 1 by bolts. A frame 3 is slidably connected between the two brackets 2. A pin 4 is fixedly connected to the side of the frame 3 and is slidably connected to the bracket 2. A top plate 5 is fixedly installed on the top of the frame 3 by bolts. A partition plate 6 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the frame 3. Two extension plates 7 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the frame 3 and are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the partition plate 6. A fastening bolt 8 is threadedly connected to the top of the top plate 5 and the bottom of the fastening bolt 8 abuts against the extension plate 7. A spring 9 is fixedly connected to the top of the frame 3 and a pull plate 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the spring 9. A snap-fit ​​post 11 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the pull plate 10 and snaps into the cabinet body 1.

[0023] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the top surface of the cabinet 1 is provided with two sets of snap-fit ​​holes 12. The two sets of snap-fit ​​holes 12 are linearly arrayed on the top surface of the cabinet 1. The snap-fit ​​post 11 is snapped into the cabinet 1 through the snap-fit ​​hole 12. Pulling the pull plate 10 causes it to move the snap-fit ​​post 11 upward. At this time, the spring 9 will be stretched until the snap-fit ​​post 11 moves completely out of the snap-fit ​​hole 12, and then the lock between the frame 3 and the cabinet 1 can be released.

[0024] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, the locking post 11 is located inside the spring 9 and is slidably connected to the frame 3. After the locking post 11 moves above another set of locking holes 12, the spring 9 in the stretched state will reset and drive the locking post 11 to move into the locking hole 12, so that the frame 3 can be locked above the cabinet 1 again.

[0025] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a slot 13 is provided through the side of the bracket 2, and the pin 4 is slidably connected to the bracket 2 through the slot 13. The diameter of the pin 4 is equal to the slot spacing of the slot 13. Pulling the frame 3 to make it slide outward along the slot 13 can limit the movement trajectory of the frame 3.

[0026] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a guide rod 14 is fixedly connected inside the frame 3, and a guide plate 15 is fixedly connected to the side of the extension plate 7. The guide plate 15 is slidably connected to the guide rod 14, and the guide rod 14 can limit the movement of the extension plate 7 to make its movement more stable.

[0027] As an optional technical solution of this utility model, a metal plate 16 is fixedly connected to one side of the extension plate 7, and a magnetic plate 17 is fixedly connected to the side of the partition plate 6. The metal plate 16 and the magnetic plate 17 correspond to each other, and there is an attraction between the metal plate 16 and the magnetic plate 17, which can facilitate the initial locking of the extension plate 7 and the locking of the extension plate 7.

[0028] An outdoor power distribution cabinet works on the following principle:

[0029] 1) When the power distribution cabinet needs to be repaired in rainy weather, the repairman first needs to pull the pull plate 10 to make the locking post 11 move upward. At this time, the spring 9 will be stretched until the locking post 11 moves completely out of the locking hole 12, and then the locking between the frame 3 and the cabinet 1 can be released.

[0030] 2): Pull the frame 3 to slide it outward along the slot 13 until the locking post 11 moves above another set of locking holes 12. Then the stretched spring 9 will return to its original position and drive the locking post 11 to move into the locking hole 12, which can lock the frame 3 back above the cabinet 1.

[0031] 3): Rotate the fastening bolt 8 to move it upward until its bottom surface is separated from the extension plate 7. Then the extension plate 7 can be released from the lock. Then the extension plate 7 can be pulled to move outward along the guide rod 14. After it moves to the appropriate position, use the fastening bolt 8 to lock it again. A rainproof component can be formed in front of the cabinet 1.

[0032] In summary, when the outdoor distribution cabinet needs to be inspected in rainy weather, the maintenance worker first needs to pull the pull plate 10 to move the locking post 11 upwards. At this time, the spring 9 will be stretched until the locking post 11 is completely moved out of the locking hole 12, which can release the lock between the frame 3 and the cabinet 1. Then, pull the frame 3 to slide it outwards along the slot 13 until the locking post 11 moves above another set of locking holes 12. The stretched spring 9 will return to its original position and move the locking post 11 into the locking hole 12, which can lock the frame 3 back onto the cabinet 1. Rotate the fastening bolt 8 to move it upwards until its bottom surface is separated from the extension plate 7, then the lock on the extension plate 7 can be released. Then, pull the extension plate 7 to move it outwards along the guide rod 14. After it moves to the appropriate position, use the fastening bolt 8 to lock it again. This can form a rain shelter component in front of the cabinet 1. After opening the cabinet door 101, the maintenance personnel can stand under the rain shelter component, which can not only prevent rainwater from affecting the view, but also provide a certain rain shelter effect. After the maintenance is completed, the extension plate 7 can be put back into the frame 3 and the frame 3 can be reset, which can facilitate its storage.
