TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of fireproof technology of internet of things, specifically an outdoor fireproof device for power supply internet of things. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of internet of things technology, its application in the power supply system is increasingly widespread, providing strong support for the intelligent management and efficient operation of the power system, and the internet of things gateway as a bridge connecting the physical world and the digital world plays a crucial role in outdoor power facilities. However, the outdoor environment is complex and changeable, with high temperature, humidity, lightning and potential fire risk factors posing a serious challenge to the safe operation of the internet of things gateway. In particular, if the internet of things gateway fails and causes a fire, not only will it cause equipment damage and data loss, but it may also spread to a larger area, affecting the stable operation of the power system and the safety of the surrounding environment;
[0003] Traditional outdoor power equipment fire prevention measures mainly include the use of flame-retardant materials, the installation of a fire alarm system and the configuration of a manual or automatic fire extinguishing device, but these methods have limitations in dealing with fires in specific devices such as internet of things gateways. Flame-retardant materials can slow down the spread of fire, but cannot effectively extinguish early-stage fires. Fire alarm systems can detect fires in time, but rely on manual response, delaying the opportunity to extinguish the fire. Automatic fire extinguishing devices such as dry powder fire extinguishers or gas fire extinguishing systems can quickly extinguish fires, but are easily affected by environmental factors in outdoor environments and may cause secondary pollution to the environment. At the same time, for small electronic devices such as internet of things gateways, excessive use of fire extinguishing agents may cause further damage to the equipment. SUMMARY
[0004] The utility model aims at providing an outdoor fireproof device for power supply internet of things to solve the problems raised in the background.
[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model provides the following technical scheme:
[0006] An outdoor fireproof device for power supply internet of things, comprising:
[0007] A mounting mechanism comprising a mounting box, the bottom surface of which is fixedly connected with a rotating seat, the inside of the mounting box is provided with an air duct, the top surface of the mounting box is provided with a sand falling groove in communication with the air duct, the bottom surface of the mounting box is provided with a cover, the bottom of the cover is fixedly connected with a rotating block, the rotating block and the rotating seat are rotatably connected, a torsion spring is installed between the rotating seat and the rotating block, and the front side wall of the mounting box is fixedly connected with a mounting rack;
[0008] Sand box one, the bottom surface of which is fixedly connected to the top surface of the mounting box, and the bottom surface of the sand box one is provided with a slot that communicates with the sand drop trough;
[0009] Sandbox 2 is fixedly connected to the top surface of sandbox 1. The bottom surface of sandbox 2 and the top surface of sandbox 1 are provided with a groove that is connected to each other. A support plate is slidably connected to the inner side wall of sandbox 2. A rope is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the support plate. The other end of the rope passes through the side wall of the installation box and is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of sandbox 1.
[0010] The IoT gateway is installed and fixed inside the mounting bracket.
[0011] Furthermore, the inner sidewall of the second sandbox has two symmetrically arranged grooves.
[0012] Furthermore, the side wall of the tray is fixedly connected to two sliders.
[0013] Furthermore, a connecting ring one is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating seat, and a connecting ring two is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the cover, with a cable tie binding the connecting ring one and the connecting ring two together.

The closing cover and the descending pallet block most of the air, and the sand that slides down the inclined air duct quickly covers the fire source, forming a physical isolation layer that further effectively isolates oxygen. This design can respond quickly and automatically in the event of a fire without human intervention, greatly improving fire extinguishing efficiency and accuracy. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0025] 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.
[0026] Example
[0027] Please see Fig. 1-6In this embodiment of the present invention, an outdoor fire prevention device for an Internet of Things (IoT) power supply includes an installation mechanism 100, a sandbox 200, and a sandbox 300. The installation mechanism 100 includes an installation box 110, which is rectangular in shape. A rotating seat 111 is fixedly connected to its bottom surface. An air duct 112 is provided inside the installation box 110 for heat dissipation and ventilation. The air duct 112 has an inclined angle towards the front side wall of the installation box 110. The top surface of the installation box 110 has an opening for ventilation. A sand trough 113 is connected to channel 112. A cover 120 is provided on the bottom surface of the mounting box 110. A rotating block 121 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cover 120. The rotating block 121 and the rotating seat 111 are rotatably connected internally. A torsion spring is installed between the rotating seat 111 and the rotating block 121. Under the action of the torsion spring, the cover 120 is typically positioned over the front wall of the mounting box 110. A mounting bracket 130 is fixedly connected to the front wall of the mounting box 110. An Internet of Things (IoT) network device is installed and fixed inside the mounting bracket 130. Sandbox 200 is positioned above mounting box 110. The bottom surface of sandbox 200 is fixedly connected to the top surface of mounting box 110. The bottom surface of sandbox 200 has a slot communicating with sand drop trough 113. The bottom surface of sandbox 200 is inclined at an angle towards sand drop trough 113. Sandbox 300 is fixedly connected to the top surface of sandbox 200. The bottom surface of sandbox 300 and the top surface of sandbox 200 have communicating slots. The inner wall of sandbox 300 is slidably connected. A support plate 320 is attached, with its bottom positioned above the air duct 112. A rope 321 is fixedly connected to the bottom side of the support plate 320, with the other end of the rope 321 passing through the side wall of the mounting box 110 and fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the sand box 200. The rope 321 pulls and limits the support plate 320, keeping its bottom above the air duct 112. A door opening is provided on the top surface of the sand box 200, with a door connected to the door opening via a hinge. A handle is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the door.
[0028] Specifically, sandboxes 200 and 300 are filled with sand, which accumulates at the lowest point along the inclined angle and gathers at the sand drop trough 113, where it is blocked by the support plate 320. When the IoT gateway 400 malfunctions and catches fire, the rope 321 suspended above it melts and breaks. The broken rope 321 causes the support plate 320 to lose its tension, and the support plate 320 falls under the gravity of the sand. The bottom surface of the falling sand drop trough 113 contacts the bottom surface of the air duct 112, and its vertical sidewall blocks the air inlet of the air duct 112, thus effectively preventing the spread of fire. At the same time, the falling sand quickly covers the fire source from the air outlet along the inclined air duct 112, burying the IoT gateway 400 covered by the cover 120, forming a physical isolation layer, effectively isolating oxygen, and achieving rapid fire extinguishing. The cover 120 avoids the danger of nearby fires caused by the IoT gateway 400 melting and dripping during combustion.
[0029] likeFig. 3-6 As shown, in this embodiment, two symmetrical sliding grooves 3001 are opened on the inner sidewall of the sandbox 2 300. Two sliders 3201 are fixedly connected to the sidewall of the support plate 320. The two sliders 3201 are slidably connected to the two sliding grooves 3001 respectively, ensuring that the support plate 320 moves smoothly inside the sandbox 2 300. A connecting ring 115 is fixedly connected to the sidewall of the rotating seat 111. A connecting ring 122 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the cover 120. A cable tie 123 is tied between the connecting ring 115 and the connecting ring 122. A strip groove 114 is opened through the bottom surface of the air duct 112. A strip rod 330 is provided inside the strip groove 114. The top end of the strip rod 330 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support plate 320. A sharp knife 331 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the strip rod 330. The position of the sharp knife 331 corresponds to the cable tie 123.
[0030] In this embodiment, during daily use, the connecting ring 115 and connecting ring 122 are tied together by the cable tie 123 to keep the cover 120 in the open state, allowing the IoT gateway 400 to dissipate heat naturally and avoid affecting its operation. When the IoT gateway 400 catches fire, the rope 321 melts, causing the support plate 320 to fall. The strip rod 330 at the bottom of the support plate 320 then descends, causing the sharp blade 331 to contact the cable tie 123, cutting the cable tie 123. The cover 120, which has lost its tensile strength, quickly closes under the action of the torsion spring, covering the IoT gateway 400 and isolating it from oxygen. At the same time, sand slides down the slope of the air duct 112, quickly covering the fire source, forming a dual fire extinguishing mechanism and effectively improving the fire extinguishing efficiency.
[0031] like Fig. 2-3 As shown, in this embodiment, a fixed frame 140 is fixedly connected to the rear side wall of the mounting box 110 at the air inlet position of the air duct 112. A cooling fan 150 is fixedly connected inside the fixed frame 140. Four fixed legs 160 are fixedly connected symmetrically to each other on the rear side wall of the mounting box 110.
[0032] In practice, each of the four fixed legs 160 has a mounting hole at its end for mounting the device in a fixed position. A cooling fan 150 is installed at the air inlet of the air duct 112 to provide auxiliary heat dissipation for the IoT gateway 400, ensuring stable operation of the IoT gateway 400 in high-temperature environments and reducing the probability of fire caused by overheating.
