[0026] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a PDU switch module that is easy to maintain. The PDU switch module includes a housing 1, a front cover plate 3 disposed at the front end of the housing 1, and an electrical plug-in module 5 disposed at the rear end of the housing 1. The electrical plug-in module 5 can meet the electrical connection requirements between the PDU switch module and the power distribution box 1.

[0028] Specifically, the front end of the housing 1 is provided with a handle 4, the front end cover 3 is fitted into the front end port of the housing 1, and the front end cover 3 is provided with a connecting ear plate that matches and connects with the handle 4. Based on the handle 4, the overall pull-out and disassembly of the PDU switch module can be improved, thereby improving the convenience for staff to disassemble and maintain the PDU switch module.

[0029] The rear side wall of the enclosure 1 is provided with several mating grooves. The electrical plug-in module 5 is disposed inside the enclosure 1, and the electrical plug-in end of the electrical plug-in module 5 extends outside the enclosure 1 based on the several mating grooves. Based on the mating groove structure opened on the rear side wall of the enclosure 1, the electrical plug-in module 5 inside the enclosure 1 can be matched and mated with the rear side wall of the enclosure 1, thereby forming a connection port structure of the electrical plug-in module 5 on the rear side wall of the enclosure 1. This allows the PDU switch module to form a modular integrated packaging structure, improving the installation convenience of the PDU switch module.

[0030] Specifically, the electrical plug-in module 5 includes: a plurality of input terminals 51 and a plurality of output terminals 52. The plurality of input terminals 51 are arranged in a queue at the rear end of the housing 1, and the plurality of output terminals 52 are arranged in a queue at the rear end of the housing 1. The plurality of input terminals 51 and the plurality of output terminals 52 are independently distributed. The output terminals 52 and the input terminals 51 are concentrated at the rear end of the housing 1, which can improve the packaging integration of the PDU switch module, reduce the design of the external circuit layout structure of the housing 1, and thus simplify the overall packaging structure of the PDU switch module.

[0031] Furthermore, the input terminal 51 is configured as a plug-in hole structure, that is, the input terminal 51 can be matched with the same electrical terminals as the power distribution unit, so that the electrical terminals of the power distribution box 1 can be plugged into the plug-in hole structure of the input terminal 51, thereby improving the convenience of electrical matching between the PDU switch module and the power distribution box 1.

[0032] Furthermore, the output terminal 52 is configured as a movable electrical terminal structure, the output terminal 52 is configured as an electrical plug male connector, and the movable electrical terminal structure of the output terminal 52 is configured as an elastic electrode sheet structure, so that the output terminal 52 can meet the electrical matching requirements of the electrical plug female connector in the distribution box 1.

[0033] Specifically, the handle part 4 includes an L-shaped connecting plate 41 and a U-shaped connecting handle 42. One end of the L-shaped connecting plate 41 extends outside the housing 1, and the other end of the L-shaped connecting plate 41 is inserted into the housing 1. The L-shaped connecting plate 41 can be fixed to the housing 1 with screws. By providing the handle part 4 on the housing 1, the operator can directly pull out and disassemble the housing 1 of the PDU switch module through the handle part 4, thereby improving the convenience of the operator in maintaining the PDU switch module.

[0034] Furthermore, the U-shaped connecting handle 42 is fixed to one end of the L-shaped connecting plate 41 extending outside the housing 1, and the U-shaped connecting handle 42 is located on the outside of the housing 1 to avoid the U-shaped connecting handle 42 causing motion interference to the connection structure between the PDU switch module housing 1 and the power distribution housing 1.

[0035] Furthermore, the U-shaped connecting handle 42 can be welded and fixed to the L-shaped connecting plate 41, thereby improving the structural stability of the U-shaped connecting handle 42.

[0036] Specifically, the four sides of the front cover plate 3 are folded to form a covering part, and the front end of the housing 1 is fitted into the covering part of the front cover plate 3, so that the front cover plate 3 can cover the front end of the housing 1, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the front end of the housing 1 and the front cover plate 3, reducing the risk of moisture intrusion and dust intrusion into the interior of the housing 1, and thus improving the reliability of the PDU switch module.

[0037] Specifically, the front cover plate 3 is provided with a connection hole 31, and the front end of the housing 1 is equipped with a signal controller. The signal output terminal of the signal controller extends outside the housing 1 based on the connection hole 31, so that the front end of the housing 1 can be equipped with the signal output terminal of the signal controller. Furthermore, based on the connection hole 31 at the front end of the housing 1, the signal output terminal of the PDU switch module is integrated at the front end of the chassis, simplifying the structural layout of the signal connection between the PDU switch module and external working equipment, thereby improving the convenience of the signal connection of the PDU switch module.

[0038] Specifically, the PDU switch module also includes a top cover plate 2, which is fitted into the top of the housing 1. The top of the housing 1 is open to allow for the placement of circuit boards and other related electronic components such as relays within the housing 1. The top cover plate 2 provides coverage and protection for the top of the housing 1, enabling the PDU switch module to be integrated and packaged within the housing 1, forming a modular packaging structure for easy installation, disassembly, and maintenance of the PDU switch module.

[0039] Specifically, the top cover plate 2 is provided with first folding plates 21 on both side walls, and the top of the housing 1 is provided with second folding plates 11 on both side walls. When the top cover plate 2 covers the top of the housing 1, the first folding plates 21 and the second folding plates 11 are correspondingly snapped together. Through the snapping cooperation of the first folding plates 21 and the second folding plates 11, the assembly stability between the top cover plate 2 and the top of the housing 1 can be improved, thereby improving the stability of the structural connection arrangement of the PDU switch module.

[0040] Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​connection between the top cover 2 and the housing 1 improves the ease of disassembly between the top cover 2 and the housing 1.

[0041] Furthermore, the first folding plate 21 and the second folding plate 11 can be connected by screws, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the top cover plate 2 and the box body 1.

[0042] Specifically, a third folding plate 22 is provided at the rear end of the top cover plate 2. The top cover plate 2 is snapped into the rear side wall of the box body 1 based on the third folding plate 22. The third folding plate 22 is folded twice, so that a folded part is formed in the middle of the third folding plate 22. Based on the folded part being connected to the top of the rear side wall of the box body 1, the top cover plate 2 and the box body 1 can be fitted and matched, improving the airtightness and stability of the assembly of the top cover plate 2 and the box body 1.

[0043] Specifically, the third folding plate 22 is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove 221, and the rear side wall of the box body 1 is provided with a snap-fit ​​block 12. The snap-fit ​​block 12 is correspondingly fitted into the snap-fit ​​groove 221. By inserting and cooperating the snap-fit ​​block 12 into the snap-fit ​​groove 221 of the third folding plate 22, the top cover plate 2 and the box body 1 can be locked together.
