Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical fields of petroleum, chemical, and mining industries, and in particular to an explosion-proof distribution box with good heat dissipation. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, most explosion-proof distribution boxes on the market are made of cast aluminum alloy or stainless steel. Explosion-proof distribution boxes are strictly prohibited from being opened; all components are installed within an explosion-proof enclosure with strong sealing and no air circulation. The cabinet of an explosion-proof distribution box is much thicker than a regular distribution cabinet. If there are high-power electrical components inside the cabinet, a large amount of heat will be generated. Due to the high degree of sealing, heat dissipation is poor, the temperature inside the enclosure rises, affecting the lifespan of equipment components and posing a significant safety hazard. Adding multiple cooling fans to the explosion-proof distribution box not only increases the operating load but also reduces its sealing performance and safety. Therefore, the applicant has developed a beneficial design and found a solution to the above problems. The technical solution described below arose from this background. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of traditional explosion-proof distribution box designs and provide a product with good heat dissipation and reduced operating load.

[0004] To solve the above problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.

[0005] An explosion-proof distribution box with good heat dissipation includes a box body, a cover on the back of the box body, a first sealing strip between the cover and the box body, a mounting plate inside the box body, a heat-conducting part on the mounting plate that passes through the back of the box body, a heat-conducting part having a heat-equalizing plate, a plurality of equally spaced heat dissipation fins on one end face of the heat-equalizing plate from left to right and disposed inside the cover, a plurality of ventilation holes at the bottom of the cover, and a plurality of heat dissipation holes at the top of the cover.

[0006] Preferably, the housing has a through hole for the heat-conducting part to pass through, and the back of the housing has a first countersunk hole for accommodating the first sealing strip.

[0007] Preferably, the mounting plate has mounting holes arranged in a row, the heat-conducting part has a second countersunk hole, the second countersunk hole has a second sealing strip, and abuts against the side wall of the through hole.

[0008] Preferably, silicone grease is applied between the heat spreader and the heat-conducting part.

[0009] Preferably, the cover is provided with a mounting part that abuts against the first sealing strip. The mounting part is provided with a plurality of fastening screws and is threadedly connected to the housing, so that the mounting part is pressed tightly against the first sealing strip.

[0010] Preferably, the inlet of the ventilation hole and the inlet of the heat dissipation hole are provided with outwardly expanding inclined surfaces on both sides.

[0011] Beneficial effects:

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] This invention mounts electronic components onto a mounting plate. When the electrical components operate and generate heat, the heat is conducted to the mounting plate, and then further conducted to a vapor chamber. The vapor chamber utilizes the principle of gas-liquid phase change, employing evaporation and condensation processes to transfer heat, effectively removing heat from all directions. The remaining heat is then conducted to the heat dissipation fins, where air exchanges heat with the fins. The reduced density of the hot air creates an upward airflow that exits through the ventilation holes. Simultaneously, surrounding cool air enters through the ventilation holes, creating a continuous airflow circulation. This effectively reduces the temperature inside the enclosure and eliminates the need for forced air cooling methods such as cooling fans, thus reducing the operating load of the explosion-proof distribution box. The product boasts advantages such as excellent heat dissipation and reduced operating load. Attached Figure Description

[0025] Reference example Figures 1 to 6An explosion-proof distribution box with good heat dissipation includes a box body 1, a cover 2 on the back of the box body 1, a first sealing strip 3 between the cover 2 and the box body 1, a mounting plate 4 inside the box body 1, a heat-conducting part 41 passing through the back of the box body 1, a heat-dissipating plate 5 on the heat-conducting part 41, a plurality of equally spaced heat dissipation fins 51 on one end face of the heat-dissipating plate 5 from left to right, and is disposed inside the cover 2, a plurality of ventilation holes 21 at the bottom of the cover 2, and a plurality of heat dissipation holes 22 at the top of the cover 2; electronic components are mounted and fixed on the mounting plate 4, and when the electronic components operate and generate heat, the heat is conducted to the mounting plate 4, and the heat-conducting part 41 absorbs the heat. The heat is conducted to the vapor chamber 5, which is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. The vapor chamber 5 uses the principle of gas-liquid phase change to transfer heat through evaporation and condensation, thereby effectively removing heat from all directions. The heat is conducted to the heat dissipation fins 51 through the vapor chamber 5. The air exchanges heat with the multiple heat dissipation fins 51. The density of the hot air decreases, forming an upward airflow that is discharged from the heat dissipation hole 22. At the same time, the surrounding cold air is replenished through the ventilation hole 21, forming a continuous airflow circulation, thereby effectively reducing the temperature inside the enclosure 1. Furthermore, there is no need to use forced air cooling methods such as cooling fans for heat dissipation, reducing the operating load of the explosion-proof distribution box.

[0026] It is worth mentioning that the box body 1 is provided with a through hole 11 for the heat conduction part 41 to pass through, and the back of the box body 1 is provided with a first countersunk hole 12 to accommodate the first sealing strip 3.

[0027] It is worth mentioning that the mounting plate 4 is provided with mounting holes 42 arranged in a row, the heat-conducting part 41 is provided with a second countersunk hole 43, the second countersunk hole 43 is provided with a second sealing strip 44, and abuts against the side wall of the through hole 11. The mounting holes 42 facilitate the fixing of electrical components to the mounting plate 4, the second countersunk hole 43 provides precise positioning for the second sealing strip 44, and at the same time, the second sealing strip 44 reduces the gap between the heat-conducting part 41 and the through hole 11, improving the sealing performance inside the housing 1;

[0028] It is worth mentioning that silicone grease is applied between the heat spreader 5 and the heat conduction part 41. The silicone grease reduces the gap between the heat spreader 5 and the heat conduction part 41 and improves the heat conduction efficiency.

[0029] It is worth mentioning that the cover 2 is provided with a mounting part 23, which abuts against the first sealing strip 3. The mounting part 23 is provided with several fastening screws 6, which are threaded to the box body 1, so that the mounting part 23 is pressed tightly against the first sealing strip 3. By pressing the first sealing strip 3 tightly with the mounting part 23, the gap between the mounting part 23 and the box body 1 is reduced, allowing hot air to accumulate above the cover 2, forming a negative pressure, thereby accelerating the air convection circulation speed.

[0030] It is worth mentioning that there are outwardly expanding inclined surfaces 7 on both sides of the inlet of the ventilation hole 21 and the inlet of the heat dissipation hole 22. The inclined surfaces 7 guide more cold air or hot air through the ventilation hole 21 and the heat dissipation hole 22 in an orderly manner.

[0031] The above design scheme enables the product to achieve the advantages of good heat dissipation and reduced operating load.

[0032] The above description provides a more detailed explanation of the present invention in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all such deductions or substitutions should be considered to fall within the scope of protection defined by the claims submitted by the present invention.
