[0025] The air intake assembly includes a removable cover plate 8, which is installed on the surface of the waterproof frame 4. The surface of the removable cover plate 8 has several ventilation openings and fixing holes. The inner wall of the removable cover plate 8 is fitted with a ventilation hood 9 by nuts, and the ventilation hood 9 is connected to the ventilation openings. The ventilation openings of the ventilation hood 9 are equipped with air intake dustproof nets 10, which are made of aluminum alloy frames and filled with polyurethane flame-retardant filter cotton, thereby effectively preventing external dust from entering the interior of the energy storage cabinet 1. Z-shaped handles 15 are symmetrically arranged on the surface of the air intake dustproof nets 10.

[0026] refer to Figure 7 A flame-retardant sealing strip 11 is affixed to the mating surface between the waterproof frame 4 and the air intake component.

[0027] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the flame-retardant sealing strip 11 can prevent rainwater from entering the interior of the energy storage cabinet 1 through the gap between the waterproof frame 4 and the air inlet component.
