Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of uninterruptible power supply technology, and in particular to a lightning strike protected uninterruptible power supply. Background Technology

[0002] UPS, or Uninterruptible Power Supply, is a type of uninterruptible power supply containing energy storage devices. It is mainly used to provide uninterrupted power to equipment with high power stability requirements. When the mains input is normal, the UPS stabilizes the mains voltage and supplies it to the load. At this time, the UPS is an AC voltage regulator, and it also charges the internal battery. When the mains power is interrupted (power outage), the UPS immediately switches from the battery's DC power to the load through an inverter to continue supplying 220V AC power, so that the load can continue to operate normally and protect the load's hardware and software from damage. UPS equipment can usually provide protection against both overvoltage and undervoltage.

[0003] While existing uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) can serve as good backup power sources, they often lack surge protectors for daily use. Furthermore, the lack of surge protection provides poor sound insulation, leading to noise pollution that reduces workplace comfort during prolonged use. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a lightning protection type uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as the lack of lightning arrester installation inside the UPS and the low overall sound insulation protection effect when the UPS is used for lightning protection.

[0005] This application provides a lightning protection uninterruptible power supply (UPS), including a UPS chassis. A soundproof cover is fitted onto the outer wall of the UPS chassis. A cover plate is slidably connected to the top of the soundproof cover. A soundproof cavity is formed in the inner wall of the soundproof cover. A plug rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the soundproof cover. A connecting block located on the movement trajectory of the plug rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the UPS chassis. A telescopic rod is slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting block. A spring is fitted onto the outer wall of the telescopic rod and fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting block. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to a connecting block fixedly connected to one end of the telescopic rod. One end of the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to a locking block that engages with the outer wall of the plug rod.

[0006] Preferably, the outer wall of the uninterruptible power supply chassis is provided with heat dissipation holes, and the outer wall of the soundproof cover is provided with mating holes corresponding to the positions of the heat dissipation holes.

[0007] Preferably, a 2P0KA surge protector is installed inside the uninterruptible power supply chassis.

[0008] Preferably, the sound insulation cavity is provided with sound insulation cotton inside, and the connection between the sound insulation cotton and the docking hole is hollow.

[0009] Preferably, the outer wall contour of the pressing part of the card block and the insertion rod is inclined, and the outer wall contour of the loosening part of the card block and the insertion rod is arc-shaped.

[0010] Preferably, there are four sets of the plug rods and the locking blocks, and the positions of the four sets of plug rods and locking blocks are distributed around the uninterruptible power supply chassis.

[0011] Preferably, the soundproof cover is connected to the uninterruptible power supply chassis via a plug and a locking block.

[0012] Beneficial effects:

[0013] While existing uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) can serve as good backup power sources, they lack surge protectors during daily use. Furthermore, the surge protection provided by UPS is inadequate for overall sound insulation. Consequently, prolonged use of UPS can lead to increased noise levels, reducing workplace comfort.

[0014] In use, the surge protector is first assembled inside the uninterruptible power supply (UPS), and the soundproof cover is inserted into the outer wall of the UPS. With the clamping block and the insertion rod pressing at an angle, the telescopic rod and spring are pressed until the clamping block engages and fixes the insertion rod. Under the reaction force of the spring being compressed, the soundproof cover is engaged and connected to the outer wall of the UPS, thus providing convenient noise reduction for the UPS during long-term operation.

[0029] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-5The lightning protection type uninterruptible power supply shown includes an uninterruptible power supply chassis 1, a soundproof cover 2 sleeved on the outer wall of the uninterruptible power supply chassis 1, a cover plate 3 slidably connected to the top of the soundproof cover 2, a soundproof cavity 4 opened in the inner wall of the soundproof cover 2, a plug rod 5 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the soundproof cover 2, a connecting block 6 located on the movement trajectory of the plug rod 5 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the uninterruptible power supply chassis 1, a telescopic rod 7 slidably connected to the outer wall of the connecting block 6, a spring 8 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the telescopic rod 7, a connecting block 9 fixedly connected to one end of the spring 8 and a locking block 10 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the plug rod 5.

[0031] The uninterruptible power supply chassis 1 has heat dissipation holes 11 on its outer wall, and the soundproof cover 2 has docking holes 12 on its outer wall that correspond to the positions of the heat dissipation holes 11.

[0032] The installation of the docking hole 12 facilitates the normal heat dissipation of the uninterruptible power supply after sound insulation treatment.

[0033] The uninterruptible power supply (UPS) chassis 1 is equipped with a 2P0KA surge protector.

[0034] It is beneficial to install the 2P0KA surge protector to provide lightning protection for uninterruptible power supplies.

[0035] The sound insulation cavity 4 is equipped with sound insulation cotton, and the connection between the sound insulation cotton and the docking hole 12 is hollow.

[0036] The sound insulation cotton installed inside the sound insulation cavity 4 helps to conveniently reduce noise when the uninterruptible power supply is in use.

[0037] Among them, the outer wall contour of the pressing part of the locking block 10 and the insertion rod 5 is inclined, and the outer wall contour of the loosening part of the locking block 10 and the insertion rod 5 is arc-shaped.

[0038] The beveled outer wall of the pressing part of the locking block 10 and the insert rod 5 facilitates a convenient locking connection between the locking block 10 and the insert rod 5.

[0039] There are four sets of plug rods 5 and card blocks 10, and the positions of the four sets of plug rods 5 and card blocks 10 are distributed around the uninterruptible power supply chassis 1.

[0040] By setting up four sets of plug rods 5 and clips 10 evenly distributed around the uninterruptible power supply chassis 1, the stability of the soundproof cover 2 during the snap-fit ​​connection and installation is improved.

[0041] The soundproof cover 2 is connected to the uninterruptible power supply chassis 1 by means of the plug rod 5 and the locking block 10.

[0042] It facilitates the engagement and connection of the plug rod 5 and the locking block 10, enabling the soundproof cover 2 to be installed with the uninterruptible power supply chassis 1, thus providing convenient soundproofing and noise reduction for the uninterruptible power supply.
