[0029] See also Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides an intelligent distribution box, comprising:
[0030] Main housing 1, with an installation cavity provided on the main housing 1;
[0031] Monitoring host 2 is installed inside the main enclosure 1;
[0032] Circuit breaker assembly 3 is installed inside the main enclosure 1 and located below the monitoring host 2;
[0033] Power output device 4 is installed inside the main enclosure 1. Power output device 4 is located between the monitoring host 2 and the circuit breaker assembly 3. The circuit breaker assembly 3 is electrically connected to the monitoring host 2 and the power output device 4.
[0034] The remote terminal is connected to the monitoring host 2 and the circuit breaker assembly 3.
[0035] In the embodiments of this application, the intelligent distribution box includes a main enclosure 1, a monitoring host 2, a circuit breaker assembly 3, a power output device 4, and a remote terminal. The main enclosure 1 serves as the outer shell of the intelligent distribution box, and has mounting cavities to provide installation space for the various internal components. The monitoring host 2 is located inside the main enclosure 1, typically in a position convenient for monitoring and operation. The monitoring host 2 can monitor various electrical parameters within the distribution box in real time, such as voltage, current, and power, and analyze and process these parameters. When abnormal electrical parameters are detected, the monitoring host 2 can promptly issue an alarm to remind the user to take appropriate measures. Simultaneously, the monitoring host 2 can also control and manage the circuit breaker assembly 3 and the power output device 4. For example, when an overload or short circuit occurs, the monitoring host 2 can quickly issue a command to automatically disconnect the circuit using the circuit breaker assembly 3, protecting electrical equipment and personnel safety. Furthermore, the monitoring host 2 can adjust the restart or shutdown of the power output device 4 port according to power demand to ensure a stable and reliable power supply for different electrical devices.
[0036] Circuit breaker assembly 3 is primarily responsible for circuit protection in the intelligent distribution box. When faults such as overload, short circuit, or leakage occur in the circuit, circuit breaker assembly 3 can quickly disconnect the circuit to prevent the fault from escalating. Circuit breaker assembly 3 is electrically connected to monitoring host 2 and power output unit 4, and can receive control commands from monitoring host 2 and feed back the circuit status information to monitoring host 2. In this way, monitoring host 2 can understand the operating status of the circuit in real time and remotely control circuit breaker assembly 3 as needed. Moreover, external power is connected to circuit breaker assembly 3 to supply power to the electrical components inside the intelligent distribution box.
[0037] The power output unit 4 plays a role in power distribution and conversion in the intelligent distribution box. Located between the monitoring host 2 and the circuit breaker assembly 3, it distributes and converts the input power to provide suitable power output for different electrical devices. The power output unit 4 has functions such as voltage stabilization and filtering, ensuring the quality and stability of the output power. Simultaneously, the power output unit 4 is electrically connected to both the monitoring host 2 and the circuit breaker assembly 3. The monitoring host 2 can monitor the output parameters of the power output unit 4 in real time and control and manage it. For example, when the load of the electrical equipment changes, the monitoring host 2 can adjust the port of the power output unit 4 to restart or shut down to meet the needs of the electrical equipment.
[0038] The remote terminal communicates with the monitoring host 2 and the circuit breaker assembly 3, enabling remote monitoring and control of the intelligent distribution box. Users can view electrical parameters and equipment operating status within the distribution box anytime, anywhere via the remote terminal, and can remotely operate the circuit breakers, such as remotely closing and opening them. The remote terminal can also receive alarm information from the monitoring host 2 and take timely measures, improving the safety and reliability of the intelligent distribution box.
[0039] Circuit breaker assembly 3 includes:
[0040] The mounting box 31 contains, in sequence, an input circuit breaker 32, an automatic reclosing circuit breaker 33, and multiple output circuit breakers 34.
[0041] In this technical solution, the mounting box 31 is used to support and fix the input circuit breaker 32, the automatic reclosing circuit breaker 33, and multiple output circuit breakers 34. The external power supply sequentially delivers current to the internal electrical components through the input circuit breaker 32, the automatic reclosing circuit breaker 33, and the multiple output circuit breakers 34 to ensure the normal operation of the intelligent distribution box. The monitoring host 2 is connected to the input circuit breaker 32, the automatic reclosing circuit breaker 33, and the multiple output circuit breakers 34 through wires. It can collect the operating status information of each circuit breaker and transmit it to the remote terminal. It can also control the opening and reclosing status of each circuit breaker through the remote terminal to achieve remote control.
[0042] Mounting plate 5 is located at the top of the mounting cavity, and mounting plate 5 is equipped with exhaust component 6, smoke sensor 7 and lighting component 8 respectively.
[0043] In this technical solution, the mounting plate 5 is located at the top of the mounting cavity and plays an important supporting and integrating role.
[0044] The exhaust fan 6 is mounted on the mounting plate 5 and connected to the outside environment. It effectively dissipates heat generated inside the intelligent distribution box due to the operation of electrical equipment, ensuring the normal operation of the equipment, extending its service life, and reducing the risk of fires and other safety accidents caused by overheating. Understandably, a temperature sensor is also installed inside the main enclosure 1. This sensor detects the internal temperature of the main enclosure 1 and transmits the detected temperature to the monitoring host 2. The monitoring host 2 controls the speed of the exhaust fan based on the detected temperature, achieving automatic cooling of the inside of the main enclosure 1.
[0045] Smoke sensor 7, also located on mounting plate 5, constantly monitors the air quality inside the intelligent distribution box. Once smoke is detected, smoke sensor 7 immediately sends a signal to monitoring host 2. Monitoring host 2 then sends an alarm to a remote terminal to alert staff. Staff can then take appropriate measures via the remote terminal, such as remotely cutting off the power. This allows for timely detection and intervention in the early stages of a fire, effectively preventing its spread and escalation.
[0046] The lighting unit 8 is mounted on the mounting plate 5 to provide sufficient lighting inside the intelligent distribution box. In low-light conditions, the lighting unit 8 facilitates equipment inspection, maintenance, and repair operations for staff. The lighting unit 8 can be manually turned on as needed or automatically controlled by the monitoring host 2 according to specific conditions, such as automatically turning on when the door 11 is opened.
[0047] The intelligent distribution box also includes a water immersion sensor 9, which is located at the bottom of the main box 1 with its detection end facing downwards.
[0048] In this technical solution, the intelligent distribution box also includes a water immersion sensor 9, which is located at the bottom of the main box 1 with its detection end facing downwards, and plays a monitoring role.
[0049] The water immersion sensor 9 can detect water immersion at the bottom of the main enclosure 1 in real time. In some special installation environments, there may be a risk of water leakage or accumulation, such as basements or locations near water sources. The water immersion sensor 9 can detect the presence of water immediately and send the detection signal to the monitoring host 2. After receiving the water immersion signal, the monitoring host 2 will send a signal to the remote terminal to remind relevant personnel to take emergency measures.
[0050] The intelligent distribution box also includes a heater 10, which is located on the side wall of the main box 1.
[0051] In this technical solution, heater 10 is mainly used to maintain a suitable temperature inside the intelligent distribution box in low-temperature environments. In some cold regions or special working environments, excessively low temperatures may affect the normal operation of electrical equipment or even cause equipment damage. Heater 10 can automatically start when the temperature drops to a certain level, providing heat to the inside of the intelligent distribution box and ensuring that the electrical equipment always operates within a suitable temperature range. Simultaneously, the power and temperature of heater 10 can be adjusted according to actual needs, remotely controlled by a remote terminal, or automatically operated according to preset temperature thresholds.
[0052] The intelligent distribution box also includes a door 11, which is hinged to the main box 1. The door 11 is used to cover the installation cavity, and a locking element 12 is provided on the door 11.
[0053] In this technical solution, the door 11 is used to cover the installation cavity, playing an important protective role. When the door 11 is closed, it can effectively prevent dust, moisture and other external factors from entering the intelligent distribution box, thereby ensuring the normal operation and service life of the internal electrical equipment.
[0054] A locking element 12 is installed on the door 11 to further enhance the security of the intelligent distribution box. The locking element 12 prevents unauthorized personnel from opening the intelligent distribution box, avoiding damage to electrical equipment caused by human error or misoperation. The type of locking element 12 can be selected according to actual needs, such as a mechanical lock or an electronic lock. For locations with high security requirements, smart locks can also be used, which can be unlocked via a remote terminal, improving ease of use.
[0055] A monitor 13 is installed on the top of the side wall of the main housing 1. The monitor 13 is used to monitor the status of the door 11.
[0056] In this technical solution, the monitor 13 is used to monitor the status of the door 11, enabling real-time monitoring of its opening and closing. When the door 11 is opened, the monitor 13 immediately detects this change and transmits the signal to the monitoring host 2. The monitoring host 2 can take corresponding measures based on the changes in the status of the door 11, such as issuing an alarm when the door 11 is illegally opened to notify relevant personnel for handling, thereby preventing unauthorized personnel from operating or damaging the equipment inside the intelligent distribution box.
[0057] In addition, the monitor 13 can also record the opening and closing times of the door 11, providing a detailed historical record for the use and management of the smart distribution box. This is very helpful for security audits and troubleshooting, enabling the tracing of the causes and processes of changes in the status of the door 11.
[0058] Understandably, the monitoring device 13 further enhances the security and intelligence of the entire system. Working together with the locking device 12, it provides dual security for the intelligent distribution box. While the locking device 12 prevents the door 11 from being illegally opened, the monitoring device 13 monitors the status of the door 11 in real time, ensuring that any abnormalities can be detected promptly and appropriate measures taken under any circumstances.
[0059] At least one support member 14 is provided inside the main housing 1 and below the mounting box 31. The support member 14 is used to store other devices.
[0060] In this technical solution, the carrier 14 is installed inside the main enclosure 1. The carrier 14 serves as a support tray and is used to store other equipment, significantly improving the space utilization of the intelligent distribution box. In some complex electrical systems, additional equipment may be needed to support the operation of the intelligent distribution box, or to store spare equipment and tools. The carrier 14 provides a safe and orderly storage location for these devices, making the interior of the intelligent distribution box neater and more organized. The presence of the carrier 14 also makes the maintenance and management of the intelligent distribution box more convenient, reducing the risk of equipment loss and damage.
[0061] A cable management rack 15 is installed between the monitoring host 2 and the power output unit 4.
[0062] In this technical solution, the cable management rack 15 effectively organizes and secures the connecting wires inside the intelligent distribution box. During the operation of the intelligent distribution box, if various connecting wires are arranged haphazardly, it not only affects the aesthetics but may also cause interference between lines and even pose safety hazards. The cable management rack 15 can arrange these connecting wires in an orderly manner in a specific location, avoiding wire crossing and tangling.
[0063] Understandably, cable management racks 15 are typically made of sturdy and durable materials with good insulation and fire resistance.
[0064] The main housing 1 has several ventilation openings 16 on at least one side wall.
[0065] In this technical solution, multiple ventilation openings 16 are formed on the side wall of the main enclosure 1. The placement of these openings effectively promotes airflow between the inside of the intelligent distribution box and the external environment. During operation, the internal electrical equipment generates heat. If this heat cannot be dissipated in time, it may lead to overheating, affecting equipment performance and lifespan, and even causing safety accidents. The ventilation openings 16 allow cool external air to enter the main enclosure 1, exchange with the hot internal air, and thus remove heat, maintaining the internal temperature of the intelligent distribution box within a suitable range.
[0066] Understandably, to prevent dust, debris, and other contaminants from entering the main enclosure 1 and damaging electrical equipment, the vents 16 are usually equipped with filters. These filters can be cleaned or replaced regularly to ensure proper ventilation.

The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of this application, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of this application.
