Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of outdoor equipment technology, specifically to an outdoor sand-proof structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the design of optical storage products, to ensure a neat and aesthetically pleasing external appearance, the product design is typically made as flat and regular as possible. Therefore, while meeting outdoor protection requirements of IPX5 / IPX6, most products use post-assembly compression sealing strips for waterproofing. Furthermore, due to the requirement for a neat and regular shape, the door panel dimensions generally do not exceed the dimensions of the enclosure. Therefore, under economical and practical conditions, the enclosure needs to reserve some space for door panel mounting screws. This structure ensures a flat and aesthetically pleasing appearance, but requires a certain bending structure on the inside to compress the sealing strip for waterproofing. It also creates a groove in the structure (e.g., Figure 5 Over time, this structure will continuously accumulate sand or small debris (such as...). Figure 6 During rainy weather, the water-retaining structure causes the rubber strips to be submerged in water (IPX7), exceeding IPX5 / IPX6, posing a significant potential hazard to product operation. Furthermore, during inspection and maintenance, when disassembling the door panel, impurities and dust can easily fall into the machine, causing other malfunctions and making maintenance and inspection inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0005] An outdoor sandproof structure includes a box body and a door panel. The door panel is fixedly installed on the box body. An upward-opening groove is formed between the door panel and the top outer side of the box body. A waterproof strip is pressed between the inner side of the door panel and the outer side of the box body. The structure is characterized in that: a sandproof strip is fixedly provided on the top inner side of the door panel, and a sandproof strip is provided between the sandproof strip and the top outer side of the box body. The inner end of the sandproof strip is pressed against the outer side of the sandproof strip.
[0006] Preferably, the sand-proof rubber strip is fixedly installed on the top outer side of the box body, and a bending plate is provided on the top inner side of the door panel.

[0008] Preferably, the waterproof strip is fixedly installed on the inner side of the door panel, and the outer side of the box body is pressed against the inner side of the waterproof strip.
[0009] Preferably, the sand-proof strip and the waterproof strip are fixed to the box body and the door panel respectively by adhesive.
[0010] Preferably, the compression amount of the waterproof sealing strip is greater than that of the sandproof sealing strip.
[0011] This utility model provides an outdoor sand-proof structure. It has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] This invention significantly optimizes the solution to the problem of sand and dust accumulation in the bending groove at the top of the enclosure in outdoor applications through structural improvements, ensuring that the sealing strip will not be submerged in water for extended periods even when wet from rain. Furthermore, this design greatly reduces the risk of sand and debris falling into the enclosure during inspections when the door panel is opened, thus preventing malfunctions. This improvement significantly enhances the product's stability and reliability in outdoor use scenarios. Attached Figure Description

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] Please see Figures 1-3 An outdoor sandproof structure includes a box body 1 and a door panel 2. The door panel 2 is fixedly installed on the box body. An upward-opening groove 3 is formed between the door panel 2 and the top outer side of the box body 1. A waterproof strip 4 is pressed between the inner side of the door panel 2 and the outer side of the box body 1. A sandproof pressure strip 6 is fixedly installed on the top inner side of the door panel 2. A sandproof strip 5 is installed between the sandproof pressure strip 6 and the top outer side of the box body 1. The inner end of the sandproof pressure strip 6 is pressed onto the outer side of the sandproof strip 5.
[0023] Sandproof strip 5 is fixedly installed on the top outer side of the box body 1, and a bending plate 201 is installed on the top inner side of the door panel 2.
[0024] The door panel 2 and the box body 1 are fixedly connected by screws 7, one end of which is located inside the groove 3.
[0025] The waterproof strip 4 is fixedly installed on the inside of the door panel 2, and the outside of the box body 1 is pressed onto the inside of the waterproof strip 4.
[0026] Sandproof strip 5 and waterproof strip 4 are fixed to the box body 1 and door panel 2 respectively by adhesive.
[0027] The compression of waterproof strip 4 should be greater than that of sandproof strip 5.
[0028] This utility model is applied to the outdoor protection design of products. It involves attaching sand-proof rubber strips 5 to the box body 1 and adding sand-proof pressure strips 6 (or similar structures) to the door panel 2. When installing the door panel 2, the waterproof rubber strip 4 first contacts and compresses the box body 1. After the waterproof rubber strip 4 is compressed to a certain extent, the sand-proof pressure strip 6 (or similar structures) on the door panel 2 begins to contact and compress the sand-proof rubber strip 5 on the box body 1. After installation, the waterproof rubber strip 4 and the sand-proof pressure strip 5 are simultaneously in a compressed state. The former is used for sealing and waterproofing, while the latter is used for sealing and sand prevention. The compression amount of the waterproof rubber strip 4 is greater than that of the sand-proof rubber strip 5. This sand-proof structure does not change the original appearance structure of the product, is simple in structure, and is easy to modify.
[0029] Please see Figure 4External sand and dust will fall on the upper side of the bending plate 201, the box body 1, and the sandproof rubber strip 5, and cannot enter the interior of the groove 3. Therefore, when it is necessary to open the door panel 2, it is only necessary to clean the sand and dust on the upper side first, and then open the door panel 2. This will prevent sand and dust from entering the interior of the box. Similarly, since the sandproof rubber strip 5 has good sealing performance due to compression, rainwater cannot enter the interior of the groove 3. Therefore, water will not accumulate inside the groove 3, thus preventing the waterproof rubber strip 4 from being soaked by rainwater for a long time. This improves the waterproof effect and helps to extend the service life of the waterproof rubber strip 4.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
