Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of generator set technology, and in particular to a cover for generator sets. Background Technology
[0002] A generator set is a complete set of mechanical equipment that converts other forms of energy into electrical energy. The energy generated by other forms of energy is converted into mechanical energy and transmitted to the generator, which then converts it into electrical energy and outputs it to electrical equipment. Generators have a wide range of uses in industrial and agricultural production, national defense, science and technology, and daily life. In recent years, with technological advancements, lightweight and portable small generator sets have also begun to enter residents' daily lives as a high-quality choice for home emergency power and outdoor travel power. Protective equipment is required when using generator sets.
[0003] Publication No.: CN205753756U, a protective cover-type generator set housing, comprising: a base housing and a support bracket disposed at the bottom of the base housing. Through the above method, this utility model's protective cover-type generator set housing can provide comprehensive protection for the generator set's interior, extending the generator set's service life. It is not easily deformed by impacts, effectively ensuring the protective cover's tightness. It also exhibits good stability during opening and closing, preventing loosening. However, in actual operation, the following problems may arise:
[0004] 1) The equipment uses a protective cover to cover the entire generator set. Since the generator set will continuously generate heat during use, and there is no function to dissipate heat from the generator set during use, the temperature inside the protective cover is too high, which reduces the performance of the generator set.
[0005] 2) The protective cover of this equipment has a simple structure and the heat dissipation is generally achieved by the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the protective cover and the free flow of air to dissipate heat inside the protective cover. This heat dissipation method is ineffective, which causes the temperature inside the protective cover of the engine unit to continue to rise. Utility Model Content
[0006] In order to overcome the defects of the prior art mentioned above, the inventors conducted in-depth research and, after a great deal of creative work, completed this utility model.
[0007] Specifically, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a cover for generator sets, so as to solve the technical problems of poor heat dissipation and poor heat preservation of current generator set protective covers.
[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0009] A generator set housing includes a generator cover, in which a generator set is fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the generator cover, a temperature control mechanism is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the generator cover, and a dehumidification mechanism is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the generator cover.
[0010] The temperature control mechanism includes a connecting box, the outer surface of which is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the generator cover. A fixing frame is fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the connecting box, and a No. 1 motor is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the fixing frame. A No. 1 rotating shaft is fixedly installed at the output end of the No. 1 motor through a coupling, and blades are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the No. 1 rotating shaft.
[0011] As an improved technical solution, the temperature control mechanism also includes a control frame, the outer surface of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting box, a second motor fixedly installed on the inner surface of the control frame, a second rotating shaft fixedly installed at the output end of the second motor via a reducer, and a valve plate fixedly installed on the outer surface of the second rotating shaft.
[0012] As an improved technical solution, the left end of the second rotating shaft passes through the control frame and extends into the interior of the control frame, and the outer surface of the valve plate is slidably connected to the inner surface of the control frame.
[0013] As an improved technical solution, a temperature sensor is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the generator cover.
[0014] As an improved technical solution, the dehumidification mechanism includes a dehumidification rack, the outer surface of which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the generator cover, a desiccant storage box is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the dehumidification rack via a fixing block, a connecting frame is fixedly installed on the top of the desiccant storage box, a pull block is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting frame, and a connecting hole is provided on the outer surface of the dehumidification rack.
[0015] As an improved technical solution, the dehumidification mechanism further includes a liquid storage tank, and a storage slide is slidably installed on the inner surface of the liquid storage tank.
[0016] As an improved technical solution, the bottom of the dehumidifier rack passes through the generator cover and the liquid storage tank in sequence and extends into the interior of the liquid storage tank.
[0017] After adopting the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0018] 1. This utility model incorporates an active heat dissipation design for the generator cover. By using a second motor and a second rotating shaft in conjunction with the control frame and valve plate, the generator cover can be opened. Then, by using a first motor and a first rotating shaft in conjunction with the blades and the connecting box, the generator cover can be actively exchanged with the outside air, rapidly cooling the inside of the generator cover and thus regulating the temperature inside the generator cover.
[0019] 2. This utility model incorporates a dehumidification design for the inside of the generator cover. Through the coordinated use of a dehumidification rack with the generator cover, and the combined use of the dehumidification rack and desiccant storage box with the connecting frame and pull block, the desiccant storage box can be easily removed from the generator cover. Furthermore, the desiccant storage box and dehumidification rack, along with the liquid storage box and storage slide, effectively absorb moisture inside the generator cover, condense it into water, and drain it away, thus reducing the impact of moisture on the generator set inside the generator cover.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a generator set housing, which includes a generator cover 1, a generator set 2 fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the generator cover 1, a temperature control mechanism 3 fixedly installed on the inner surface of the generator cover 1, and a dehumidification mechanism 4 fixedly installed on the inner wall of the generator cover 1.
[0032] The temperature control mechanism 3 includes a connecting box 31, the outer surface of the connecting box 31 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the generator cover 1, a fixing frame 32 is fixedly installed in the inner cavity of the connecting box 31, a first motor 33 is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the fixing frame 32, a first rotating shaft 34 is fixedly installed at the output end of the first motor 33 through a coupling, and blades 35 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the first rotating shaft 34.
[0033] Motor 33 is electrically connected to an external power source and is controlled by an external PLC programming program.
[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the temperature control mechanism 3 also includes a control frame 36. The outer surface of the control frame 36 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting box 31. A second motor 37 is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the control frame 36. A second rotating shaft 38 is fixedly installed on the output end of the second motor 37 through a reducer. A valve plate 39 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the second rotating shaft 38.
[0035] Motor 37 is electrically connected to an external power source and is controlled by an external PLC programming program.
[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the left end of the second rotating shaft 38 passes through the control frame 36 and extends into the interior of the control frame 36, and the outer surface of the valve plate 39 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the control frame 36.
[0037] There are two temperature control mechanisms 3, which are fixed on the top of the generator cover 1. The two No. 1 motors 33 drive the No. 1 rotating shaft 34 to rotate in opposite directions, so that one temperature control mechanism 3 injects air inward and the other extracts air outward, thus circulating the air inside the generator cover 1 with the outside air.
[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, a temperature sensor 5 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the generator cover 1.
[0039] Temperature sensor 5 can monitor the temperature inside generator cover 1 in real time. Generator cover 1 consists of two layers: a sheet metal layer and an insulation layer.
[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the dehumidification mechanism 4 includes a dehumidification rack 41. The outer surface of the dehumidification rack 41 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the generator cover 1. A desiccant storage box 42 is fixedly installed on the inner surface of the dehumidification rack 41 by a fixing block. A connecting frame 43 is fixedly installed on the top of the desiccant storage box 42. A pull block 44 is fixedly installed on the top of the connecting frame 43. A connecting hole 47 is opened on the outer surface of the dehumidification rack 41.
[0041] The desiccant storage box 42 contains a desiccant for absorbing moisture in the air. This desiccant can absorb and condense moisture.
[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the dehumidification mechanism 4 also includes a liquid storage tank 45, and a storage slide box 46 is slidably installed on the inner surface of the liquid storage tank 45.
[0043] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the bottom of the dehumidifier rack 41 passes through the generator cover 1 and the liquid storage tank 45 in sequence and extends into the interior of the liquid storage tank 45.
[0044] During operation, generator set 2 generates a significant amount of heat within generator housing 1. When temperature sensor 5 detects the set temperature, motors 2 (37) and 1 (33) within connecting box 31 start. Motor 2 (37) drives valve plate 39 to rotate via rotating shaft 38, causing it to rotate 90 degrees and bringing connecting box 31 of generator housing 1 into contact with external air. Then, motor 1 (33) drives rotating shaft 34, which in turn drives blades 35. Simultaneously, motors 33 in both connecting boxes 31 drive rotating shaft 34, one rotating clockwise and the other counterclockwise, exchanging external air with the air inside generator housing 1. This allows cooler external air to enter and dissipates heat within generator housing 1, ensuring the generator's cooling efficiency. The temperature inside the generator cover 1 is kept at a stable value. During use inside the generator cover 1, the moisture inside the generator cover 1 will enter the dehumidification rack 41 through the connecting hole 47, and then be absorbed by the dehumidifier in the dehumidifier storage tank 42. The dehumidifier absorbs the moisture and condenses into water, which leaks down from the hole below the dehumidifier storage tank 42 and falls into the storage slide 46 in the liquid storage tank 45. When the dehumidifier is used up, the user holds the pull block 44 and moves it upward. The pull block 44 drives the dehumidifier storage tank 42 upward through the connecting bracket 43 and moves it out of the generator cover 1. The dehumidifier in the dehumidifier storage tank 42 is replaced with new dehumidifier and put back into the dehumidification rack 41. Then the storage slide 46 is taken out from the liquid storage tank 45 and the liquid in the storage slide 46 is poured out.
[0045] It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the technical description of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make various alterations, modifications, and / or variations to this utility model, and all such equivalent forms also fall within the scope of protection defined by the appended claims.
