An installation block 206 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the protective plate 205. The lower end of the installation block 206 abuts against the installation frame 203. Threaded holes are provided on both sides of the installation block 206 and both sides of the installation frame 203. An installation screw 204 is engaged in each threaded hole. The protective plate 205 can protect the distribution cabinet 101 and prevent debris such as garbage or branches falling from a height from violently impacting the top of the distribution cabinet. Moreover, the installation screw 204 and the installation block 206 facilitate the installation and removal of the protective plate 205, making it convenient for maintenance personnel to replace the damaged protective plate 205.

[0033] The shock absorption mechanism 300 includes two shock absorption frames 301 and multiple dampers 307. Each shock absorption frame 301 and damper 307 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the fixed frame 201. When impacted, the protective plate 205, the sliding plate 202 and the push rod 303 push the slider 302 to move. The slider 302 and the crossbar 304 drive the moving block 305 to move and compress the spring 306. At the same time, the sliding plate 202 compresses the damper 307 downwards. The damper 307 attenuates the energy generated by the vibration during the impact. Thus, the damper 307 and the spring 306 play a shock absorption role for the power distribution cabinet 101, further preventing the internal structure from being damaged by impact and thus ensuring the normal operation of the entire power distribution system.

[0034] Each of the two shock-absorbing frames 301 has two No. 1 grooves and two No. 2 grooves. A slider 302 is slidably connected in each No. 1 groove. A push rod 303 is rotatably connected to the upper end of each slider 302. The other end of each push rod 303 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the slide plate 202. A crossbar 304 is fixedly connected to the opposite side of the multiple sliders 302. The other end of each crossbar 304 passes through the No. 1 groove and is fixedly connected to a moving block 305. When the protective plate 205 is impacted, the protective plate 205 drives the slide plate 202 to move downward. The slide plate 202 and the push rod 303 push the slider 302 to move. The slider 302 and the crossbar 304 drive the moving block 305 to move and compress the spring 306.

[0035] Multiple sliders 302 are slidably connected in the first groove, and multiple moving blocks 305 are slidably connected in the second groove. The sliders 302 drive the crossbar 304 to move.

[0036] Multiple crossbars 304 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the shock-absorbing frame 301, the upper ends of multiple dampers 307 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the slide plate 202, and springs 306 are sleeved on multiple crossbars 304. The two ends of each spring 306 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the moving block 305 and the inner side wall of the second groove, respectively. The dampers 307 and springs 306 play a role in shock absorption for the power distribution cabinet 101.

[0038] Working principle: When in use, the protective plate 205 can protect the distribution cabinet 101, preventing debris such as garbage or tree branches falling from a height from violently impacting the top of the distribution cabinet. Moreover, the installation screws 204 and the installation blocks 206 facilitate the installation and removal of the protective plate 205, making it convenient for maintenance personnel to replace the damaged protective plate 205.

[0039] Furthermore, when the protective plate 205 is impacted, the protective plate 205 drives the sliding plate 202 to move downwards. The sliding plate 202 and the push rod 303 push the slider 302 to move. The slider 302 and the crossbar 304 drive the moving block 305 to move and compress the spring 306. At the same time, the sliding plate 202 compresses the damper 307 downwards. The damper 307 attenuates the energy generated by the vibration during the impact. Thus, the damper 307 and the spring 306 play a shock-absorbing role for the power distribution cabinet 101, further preventing the internal structure from being damaged by impact and thus ensuring the normal operation of the entire power distribution system.
