[0018] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides an automated control cabinet with a waterproof structure, including: a cabinet body 3, a base 1 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the cabinet body 3, a filter screen fixedly connected to the inside of the base 1 through a main partition plate 2, a fan 4 fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the cabinet body 3 through an air inlet, and air outlets symmetrically opened at the upper end of the inner cavity of the cabinet body 3, a waterproof box 6 fixedly connected to the outer side of the cabinet body 3 at the position opposite to the air outlet, an extension plate 7 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the waterproof box 6, the inner cavity of the extension plate 7 communicating with the inner cavity of the waterproof box 6, a main drainage plate 10 fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the waterproof box 6, a secondary drainage plate 13 fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the waterproof box 6, a mounting frame 14 fixedly connected to the main opening at the top of the inner cavity of the waterproof box 6, a counterweight plate 11 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the mounting frame 14 through a hanging rope 12, and a trapping groove 9 opened on the side of the bottom of the inner cavity of the waterproof box 6 near the air outlet, and a collection box 5 fixedly connected to the inner side of the cabinet body 3 near the air outlet.
[0019] In this embodiment, during daily use, if external liquid accidentally spills onto the air inlet or outlet of the cabinet 3, the base 1 and main partition plate 2 located below the air inlet can effectively intercept the splashed liquid, reducing the probability of the splashed liquid flowing into the cabinet 3 with the airflow. The waterproof box 6 located at the air outlet can effectively intercept external liquid, preventing it from directly flowing into the cabinet 3 through the air outlet. When external liquid flows into the waterproof box 6 through the inner cavity of the extension plate 7, the intercepting net 15 located at the main opening of the waterproof box 6 can assist in guiding the liquid, reducing the probability of the liquid flying towards the main guide plate 10. Furthermore, the hanging rope 12 of the mounting frame 14 is made of absorbent material. The system can absorb and intercept some of the liquid that flies towards the main drainage plate 10. Moreover, the inner cavity of the extension plate 7 and the main drainage plate 10 are staggered, which can further reduce the probability of external liquid flowing towards the main drainage plate 10. Even if some liquid crosses the vertical rope 12 and falls onto the inclined surface of the main drainage plate 10, the interception groove 9 set in the inner cavity of the waterproof box 6 can also perform corresponding auxiliary interception. When the liquid accumulation in the interception groove 9 is large, the overflowing liquid will also be collected by the collection box 5, thereby effectively reducing the airflow of external liquid into the cabinet 3 through the air outlet, thereby reducing the probability of the automatic control components set in the cabinet 3 being damaged due to contact with liquid, and ensuring the service life of the electrical components inside the automatic control cabinet.
[0020] As a preferred implementation, two sets of air outlets are symmetrically opened at the upper end of the inner cavity of the cabinet 3. Both sets of air outlets are rectangular in shape, and the bottom of the air outlets is inclined downward at the end near the inside of the cabinet 3. At the same time, the collection box 5, which is fixedly connected to the inside of the cabinet 3 by a buckle, is a square cylindrical structure with a U-shaped cross section.
[0021] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 4 The sloping structure at the bottom of the air outlet can help guide the liquid flow to the collection box 5, reducing the chance of a large amount of liquid accumulating at the air outlet, ensuring that the collection box 5 can completely collect liquid that accidentally flows in from the outside. In addition, the collection box 5 is made of heat-conducting material, so the liquid collected in the collection box 5 can also play an auxiliary role in cooling.
[0022] As a preferred embodiment, the waterproof box 6 has a rectangular structure. The main opening is opened at the top of the end of the waterproof box 6 away from the cabinet 3, and the secondary opening is opened at the bottom of the waterproof box 6 relative to the main opening. Both the main opening and the secondary opening are rectangular. Meanwhile, the extension plate 7 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the waterproof box 6 has a square cylindrical structure, and the size of the inner cavity of the extension plate 7 is compatible with the main opening.
[0023] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The structure of the extension plate 7 can effectively reduce the probability of accidental inflow of external liquids, and can also guide the flow of inflowing liquids accordingly, reducing the probability of external liquids flying towards the main diversion plate 10 and reducing the probability of accidental inflow of external liquids into the cabinet 3.
[0024] As a preferred embodiment, the mounting frame 14 has a U-shaped structure, and an interception net 15 is fixedly connected inside the mounting frame 14. The end of the interception net 15 away from the cabinet 3 is inclined downwards. Multiple sets of hanging ropes 12 are fixedly connected at equal intervals along the side length direction on the lower surface of the mounting frame 14 near the cabinet 3. At the same time, the lower ends of the multiple sets of hanging ropes 12 are all fixedly connected to the same set of counterweight plates 11, which have a long strip structure.
[0025] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The inclined intercepting net 15 installed inside the mounting frame 14 can help guide the falling direction of external liquid, help reduce the movement of external liquid towards the main diversion plate 10, and also help intercept external debris to prevent external debris from clogging the secondary opening of the waterproof box 6, ensuring that the external liquid flowing through the waterproof box 6 will not accumulate inside the waterproof box 6. At the same time, the setting of the counterweight plate 11 can ensure that the hanging rope 12 is in a taut state. The hanging rope 12 is made of water-absorbing material, so it can intercept and absorb external liquid accordingly, further reducing the probability of external liquid flowing into the cabinet 3 by crossing the main diversion plate 10.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the main drainage plate 10, which is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner cavity of the waterproof box 6, has a hollow right-angled trapezoidal cross-section. The inclined surface of the main drainage plate 10 faces the air outlet of the cabinet 3. The secondary drainage plate 13 is fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the waterproof box 6 near the cabinet 3. The cross-section of the secondary drainage plate 13 has a hollow right-angled triangular cross-section. At the same time, the vertical surface of the main drainage plate 10 is not in contact with the counterweight plate 11.
[0027] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The structural design of the main diversion plate 10 and the secondary diversion plate 13 can help reduce the overall weight of the waterproof structure and the amount of material used in the waterproof structure. At the same time, the sloping structure of the main diversion plate 10 and the secondary diversion plate 13 can help guide the hot airflow to flow out of the cabinet 3 quickly.
[0028] As a preferred embodiment, the interception groove 9 has a long strip structure, the bottom of the interception groove 9 has an arc-shaped groove structure, and the lower surface of the main flow plate 8 fixedly connected to the top of the inner cavity of the cabinet 3 has an arc-shaped protrusion structure.
[0029] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The interception groove 9 helps reduce the chance of liquid accidentally flowing through the vertical rope 12 directly into the cabinet 3. At the same time, the structure of the main flow plate 8 can guide the hot air inside the cabinet 3 to flow out quickly from the air outlet, thus helping to enhance the heat dissipation effect of the automated control cabinet.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the base 1 has a square cylindrical structure, and ventilation openings are provided on all four sides of the lower surface of the base 1. The four ventilation openings are all elongated and the top of the ventilation openings is sloping. The main partition plate 2 fixedly connected inside the base 1 has a U-shaped structure. A filter screen is fixedly connected in the opening in the middle of the main partition plate 2, and the filter screen is located directly below the fan 4.
[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 The combination of the main partition plate 2 and the base 1 allows the external airflow to pass through multiple turns when it flows to the fan 4, thereby helping to reduce the probability of external splashed liquid flowing into the cabinet 3 with the airflow. At the same time, the filter screen can not only help to intercept external debris, but also help to intercept splashed liquid, thereby reducing the probability of external liquid flowing into the cabinet 3 from the air inlet.
[0032] The waterproof automated control cabinet of this utility model, through the cooperation of the waterproof box 6, the main drainage plate 10, the secondary drainage plate 13, the extension plate 7, the hanging rope 12, the base 1 and the main partition plate 2, can set up corresponding waterproof structures at the air inlet and air outlet of the cabinet body 3, thereby effectively reducing the probability of external liquids accidentally flowing into the cabinet body 3 and reducing the probability of electrical components inside the cabinet body 3 being accidentally damaged by liquids.
