Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electric meter box technology, and in particular a waterproof electric meter box. Background Technology

[0002] An electricity meter box is a special box used for measuring electricity consumption. It is usually installed in residential or commercial buildings. Existing electricity meter boxes, which do not take into account the use in humid environments, are prone to internal moisture, which can cause short circuits in the internal circuitry of the meter box and reduce its safety.

[0003] In related technologies, a search revealed a Chinese patent document (authorization announcement number CN221727710U) for a waterproof electric meter box, which includes an electric meter box, a bottom shell fixedly connected to the bottom of the electric meter box, a mesh plate fixedly connected to the bottom shell, a guide rod fixedly connected to the mesh plate, a cylinder sleeved on the outer wall of the guide rod, an elastic element installed in the cylinder, a pad fixedly connected to the outer wall of the cylinder, and a conical cylinder fixedly connected to the pad. This utility model relates to the field of meter box technology. The waterproof meter box uses a combination of a mesh plate, a guide rod, a cylinder, an elastic element, a pad, a conical cylinder, and a pin. The heat generated in the meter box flows through the mesh plate to the pad, and the heat is discharged through the conical cylinder in the pad. The conical cylinder is located at the bottom of the meter box, and the diameter of the bottom through hole of the conical cylinder is small to prevent rainwater from flowing back into the meter box. It can achieve normal heat dissipation in rainy weather without manual adjustment. However, the meter box does not consider internal dehumidification. In a humid environment, the meter box is prone to internal circuit short circuits, reducing the safety of the meter box. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a waterproof meter box to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a waterproof meter box, including a meter box body, a dehumidification component for storing desiccant for waterproofing the meter box body is provided at the bottom of the meter box body, the dehumidification component includes a rotating disk and a threaded column, the top surface of the rotating disk is fixedly connected to the threaded column, the threaded column is threadedly connected to the meter box body, the bottom surface of the meter box body abuts against a limit nut, the limit nut is threadedly connected to the threaded column, the top two ends of the threaded column are fixedly connected to a fixing plate, the top surfaces of the two fixing plates are fixedly connected to a fixing ring, the fixing rings are fixedly connected to the adjacent sides of the threaded column to two semi-circular arc-shaped shielding nets, the adjacent sides of the two shielding nets are respectively fixedly connected to the two fixing plates, and the two shielding nets and the two fixing plates are arranged alternately.

[0006] Preferably, the outer wall of the meter box is provided with two symmetrically arranged mounting components, each of which includes a support rod and a C-shaped support plate.

[0007] Preferably, the inner sidewalls of the two support plates are arranged concentrically, and the two end faces of the support rod are welded to the support plates.

[0008] Preferably, two movable plates are slidably connected to the inner side wall of the support plate, and the top surfaces of the two movable plates are slidably embedded in the support rod.

[0009] Preferably, an L-shaped mounting plate is fixedly connected to the side of the movable plate, and the inner side wall of the mounting plate is provided with a threaded groove for bolt thread connection.

[0010] Preferably, the movable plate is threaded with a fixing bolt on the side away from the mounting plate, and a rubber block is fixedly connected to the end face of the fixing bolt.

[0011] Preferably, the end face of the rubber block abuts against the support rod, and a door is installed on the side of the meter box.

[0012] Preferably, a C-shaped pull plate is welded to the side of the cabinet door.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] This waterproof meter box is designed to prevent short circuits caused by humid air easily entering the box when used in damp environments. A dehumidifying component stores desiccant, effectively drying the interior and thus waterproofing the meter box, improving its safety. The cylindrical structure, composed of a fixing ring, threaded post, two shielding nets, and two fixing plates, stores the desiccant. The threaded post moves along the threaded path of the meter box, extending the desiccant storage structure into the box. Simultaneously, a limiting nut moves along the threaded path of the post, abutting against the meter box to prevent the post from shifting or deviating, thus improving the structural stability of the meter box components.

[0015] This waterproof meter box addresses the common problem of fixed wall mounting. While meter boxes are typically bolted to the wall, this fixed mounting position is unsuitable for various usage environments. By moving a movable plate vertically along the support rod, the moving plate's path is initially fixed. Simultaneously, the side of the movable plate slides against the inner wall of the support plate, preventing rotation during vertical movement and further improving its stability. The fixing bolts then engage a rubber block against the support rod, securing the movable plate and allowing for easy adjustment and control of its position. This adapts the meter box to various wall mounting requirements and enhances the structural stability of its components. Attached Figure Description

[0023] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features well-known in the art have not been described in order to avoid confusion with the present invention.

[0024] Unless otherwise defined, the directions mentioned herein, such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside, are based on the directions shown in the figures of this utility model, and are explained here together.

[0025] The connection method can be any existing method, such as bonding, welding, or bolting, depending on the actual needs.

[0026] To address the issue of short circuits easily occurring in waterproof meter boxes used in humid environments, thus reducing their safety, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figures 1 to 4The structure of the device body includes a meter box 1. A dehumidification component 2 is provided at the bottom of the meter box 1 to store a desiccant for waterproofing the meter box 1. The dehumidification component 2 is used to store the desiccant, so that the desiccant provides a drying and dehumidifying effect on the meter box 1, preventing short circuits caused by moisture inside the meter box 1 and improving the safety of the meter box. The dehumidification component 2 includes a rotating disk 3 and a threaded column 4. The top surface of the rotating disk 3 is fixedly connected to the threaded column 4, so that the rotating disk 3 can be rotated manually, thereby realizing the rotation of the threaded column 4.

[0027] The threaded post 4 is threadedly connected to the meter box 1, allowing it to move vertically along the threaded path of the meter box 1 during rotation, extending into the interior of the meter box 1. The bottom surface of the meter box 1 abuts against a limiting nut 5, which is threadedly connected to the threaded post 4, allowing the limiting nut 5 to move along the threaded path of the threaded post 4. The side of the limiting nut 5 that contacts the meter box 1 is rough, providing a positional fixation for the threaded post 4 and preventing it from shaking and falling off, thus improving the structural stability of the meter box components. Fixing plates 6 are fixedly connected to both ends of the top of the threaded post 4.

[0028] Two fixing plates 6 are fixedly connected to the top surface of two fixing rings 7. Two semi-circular shielding nets 8 are fixedly connected to the adjacent side of the fixing rings 7 and the threaded post 4. The adjacent sides of the two shielding nets 8 are fixedly connected to the two fixing plates 6 respectively. The two shielding nets 8 and the two fixing plates 6 are arranged alternately, so that the threaded post 4, the fixing rings 7, the two fixing plates 6 and the two shielding nets 8 are combined to form a cylindrical barrel structure for placing desiccant. The desiccant dries and dehumidifies the meter box 1. At the same time, it is easy for the threaded post 4 to be detached from the meter box 1 during rotation, so as to replace the desiccant. This prevents the drying effect of the desiccant from weakening after long-term use, prevents short circuits caused by moisture inside the meter box, and further improves the safety of the meter box.

[0029] Two symmetrically arranged mounting components 11 are provided on the outer wall of the meter box 1, so that the two mounting components 11 are set on both sides of the meter box 1. The mounting components 11 include support rods 13 and C-shaped support plates 12. The adjacent sides of the two support plates 12 are welded to the meter box 1 to fix the position of the two support plates 12. The inner sidewalls of the two support plates 12 are arranged concentrically. The two end faces of the support rods 13 are welded to the support plates 12, so that the two end faces of the support rods 13 are welded to the inner top wall and inner bottom wall of the support plates 12 respectively, so that the support plates 12 provide support and fixation for the support rods 13.

[0030] Two movable plates 14 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the support plate 12, initially fixing the vertical movement path of the two movable plates 14. The top surfaces of the two movable plates 14 are slidably embedded in the support rod 13, further fixing the vertical movement path of the two movable plates 14. At the same time, under the sliding movement of the movable plates 14 on the inner wall of the support plate 12, the phenomenon of rotation of the movable plates 14 during vertical movement is prevented, improving the structural stability of the components of the meter box. An L-shaped mounting plate 15 is fixedly connected to the side of the movable plate 14. The inner wall of the mounting plate 15 has a threaded groove for bolt thread connection. The mounting plate 15 is fixedly installed on the wall surface by bolts, realizing the installation and fixation of the meter box. At the same time, it is easy to adjust the relative position of the four mounting plates 15 to adapt to the installation space requirements of the meter box, thereby improving the ease of use of the meter box.

[0031] A fixing bolt 16 is threadedly connected to the side of the movable plate 14 away from the mounting plate 15. A rubber block 17 is fixedly connected to the end face of the fixing bolt 16. The end face of the rubber block 17 abuts against the support rod 13, causing the fixing bolt 16 to move along the threaded path of the movable plate 14. This causes the fixing bolt 16 to drive the rubber block 17 to abut against the support rod 13. During the transmission process, the movable plate 14 is fixed at the designated position of the support rod 13, further improving the structural stability of the components of the meter box. A door 9 is installed on the side of the meter box body 1. A C-shaped pull plate 10 is welded to the side of the door 9.

[0032] Working principle

[0033] In this waterproof meter box, the user rotates the rotating disk 3, causing the threaded post 4 to move along the threaded path of the meter box 1, extending the threaded post 4 into the interior of the meter box 1. At the same time, the limiting nut 5 moves along the threaded path of the threaded post 4, so that the top surface of the limiting nut 5 abuts against the meter box 1, fixing the position of the threaded post 4. The threaded post 4, the fixing ring 7, the two fixing plates 6, and the two shielding nets 8 combine to form a cylindrical barrel structure to store desiccant, allowing the desiccant to dry and dehumidify the interior of the meter box 1.

[0034] Four mounting plates 15 are fixed to the wall surface by bolts, while the movable plate 14 moves vertically along the path of the support rod 13. During the transmission process, the relative positions of the four mounting plates 15 are adjusted so that the fixing bolt 16 moves along the thread path of the movable plate 14, so that the fixing bolt 16 drives the rubber block 17 to abut against the surface of the support rod 13, and the movable plate 14 is fixed at the designated position of the support rod 13.
