Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of switch panel wall box technology, and in particular to a wall box structure that facilitates the assembly of switch panels. Background Technology

[0002] Switch boxes are generally square plastic boxes, embedded in the wall-mounted base box. The wires are laid in a concealed manner to maintain the aesthetics of the room. The body of the wall electrical switch box is made of plastic, and the panel material of low- and mid-range civilian products is also made of plastic. The switches used are mechanical toggle switches, which are relatively inexpensive. High-end luxury models use glass panels and touch switches, which are more common in daily life.

[0003] Existing technologies, such as the utility model patent with publication number CN202473655U, disclose a mechanical structure for a glass panel wall-mounted electrical switch box. This patented glass panel wall-mounted electrical switch is a high-end luxury product used in upscale hotels and restaurants. Current products of this type on the market have defects; on-site installation and disassembly / repair are very inconvenient. They require separating the plastic box from the glass panel, then connecting or disconnecting the wiring, which is cumbersome, inefficient, and leaves gaps between the glass panel and the plastic box, detracting from the aesthetics. This utility model improves the shape and structure of the three main parts of the box: the middle frame, the bottom box, and the bottom plate. It adds two parts: a flat pin and a bow-shaped spring plate. After the box is installed on the wall, the flat pin's tongue enters the locking hole in the bottom plate, and the pin tail pushes into the pin hole, fixing the box in place, thanks to the elasticity of the bow-shaped spring plate. On-site installation or disassembly can be done as a whole, quickly and efficiently; there are no exposed gaps, maintaining an aesthetically pleasing appearance; multiple boxes installed side-by-side have positioning indicators, making it easy to achieve height alignment.

[0004] In daily use, it has been found that when operating wall boxes installed on the switch panel, the size or installation method of the wall box may not be completely compatible with some older or non-standard walls. In this case, additional adjustments or modifications to the wall will be required, which will increase the complexity and time of installation, making it inconvenient to quickly install the wall box. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where, during the operation of wall boxes installed on the switch panel surface, the size or installation method of the wall box may not be fully compatible with some older or non-standard walls. In such cases, additional adjustments or modifications to the wall are required, which increases the complexity and time of installation, making it inconvenient to quickly install the wall box.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a wall box structure that facilitates the assembly of switch panels, comprising: a first wall box, a second wall box disposed on one side of the first wall box, and docking mechanisms disposed on both sides of the inner walls of the first wall box and the second wall box, the docking mechanism comprising two limiting frames, the two limiting frames being respectively located on both sides of the inner wall of the first wall box, one side of the limiting frame being fixedly connected to the inner wall surface of the first wall box, and docking blocks and docking frames being fixedly connected to both sides of the surfaces of the second wall box and the first wall box, respectively, a docking hole being opened on the upper surface of the limiting frame, and nut plates being inserted into the limiting frame at positions corresponding to the docking blocks and docking frames, and blocking blocks being inserted into the inner wall of the limiting frame at positions corresponding to the nut plates.

[0007] The effect achieved by the above components is that during the operation of the switch knob, it will be supported and placed using the first wall box and the second wall box set on the surface of the switch panel. At the same time, when using the first wall box and the second wall box, the docking mechanism can be used for auxiliary fixing and limit protection, thereby helping to better use the switch knob.

[0008] Preferably, the sidewall surfaces of the first wall box and the second wall box are provided with side holes, and the bottom surfaces of the first wall box and the second wall box are provided with bottom holes.

[0009] The aforementioned components achieve the following effect: heat dissipation can be achieved during long-term use of the first and second wall boxes via side and bottom holes.

[0010] Preferably, the cross-section of the docking block is T-shaped, the cross-section of the docking frame is concave, and the cross-sectional dimensions of the docking block are adapted to the cross-sectional dimensions of the docking frame.

[0011] The effect achieved by the above components is that when the first wall box and the second wall box are installed together, the insertion and positioning can be limited and fixed by means of the docking block fixed on the surface of the first wall box and the docking frame fixed on the surface of the second wall box.

[0012] Preferably, the nut plate has a rectangular cross-section, and the height of the nut plate is adapted to the inner wall dimension of the limiting frame.

[0013] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the rectangular nut plate is inserted into the limiting frame, and the connecting hole on the upper surface of the limiting frame is used for insertion and fixation, which facilitates better positioning and fixing of the first wall box and the second wall box.

[0014] Preferably, the blocking block has an "L" shaped cross-section, and both sides of the lower surface of the blocking block are fixedly connected with buckles, the surfaces of which abut against the inner wall of the first wall box.

[0015] The effect achieved by the above components is that the buckle set on the lower surface of the block can squeeze and limit the position of the block, preventing the block from loosening and falling off.

[0016] Preferably, the cross-sections of the first wall box and the second wall box are octagonal, and both the first wall box and the second wall box are stainless steel boxes.

[0017] The effect achieved by the above components is that the first and second wall boxes made of stainless steel can be used for a long time without corrosion.

[0018] Compared with related technologies, the wall box structure provided by this utility model, which facilitates the assembly of switch panels, has the following advantages:

[0019] This utility model provides a wall box structure that facilitates the assembly of switch panels. During the installation and fixing of the wall box on the surface of the switch panel, a unique assembly structure is used to combine the first wall box and the second wall box. A square nut plate is inserted through the opening, and the blocking block is fastened, which simplifies the manufacturing process and ensures that the nut plate can move in the internal space, allowing for adjustment of the assembled product. The blocking block has a clever snap-fit ​​structure, which ensures that the first and second wall boxes are firmly and reliably installed after installation, and the appearance is simple. This design occupies little space, leaving space for another set of snap-fits to achieve a tandem design between the first and second wall boxes. Attached Figure Description
