AI Technical Summary
Existing outdoor switchgear is easily affected by strong winds, resulting in swaying and damage. Furthermore, traditional windproof structures cannot change the direction of wind flow and cannot effectively reduce the frontal impact of wind on the switchgear.
The system employs a wind-breaking impeller and adjustable baffle structure. The rotation of the wind-breaking impeller deflects the airflow, and the compression and return springs disperse the airflow to both sides of the switchgear. At the same time, the diagonal strips and horizontal air diffusers further disperse the airflow. Combined with the filter outlet and protective plate, a ventilation channel is formed to reduce the impact of the wind on the switchgear.
It effectively reduces the frontal impact of wind on the switchgear, improves the stability and safety of the switchgear, prevents sand and dust from entering, and protects the normal operation of the switchgear.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of switch cabinet technology, and in particular to an outdoor windproof switch cabinet. Background Technology
[0002] Switchgear is an electrical device mainly used in power systems for circuit control, protection, and monitoring. It typically consists of a cabinet, circuit breakers, disconnectors, load switches, operating mechanisms, instrument transformers, and protective devices. However, existing outdoor switchgear is often susceptible to wind damage during strong winds, leading to swaying and other problems. This not only affects the normal operation of the switchgear but may also threaten the safe operation of the power system. While existing outdoor windproof switchgear can meet basic windproof requirements, most employ fixed windproof structures that cannot change the wind direction or reduce the direct impact of wind on the switchgear.
[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent document (authorization announcement number CN221009552U), which discloses an outdoor windproof switchgear. The switchgear includes a switchgear body, a base beneath the switchgear body, a support rod between the base and the switchgear body, and windproof plates spaced apart on the outer side of the support rod. The two ends of the windproof plates are connected to the switchgear body and the base, respectively. The support rod provided by this utility model increases the stability of the entire structure, forming a more robust whole between the switchgear body and the base, dispersing the force of wind on the switchgear body, thereby reducing the risk of tipping over. The windproof plates prevent direct wind impact on the switchgear body, reducing the impact of wind on the switchgear body, and also prevent sand and other debris from entering the switchgear body, protecting its normal operation. This outdoor windproof switchgear meets basic windproof requirements; however, most adopt a fixed windproof structure, which cannot change the wind direction or reduce the frontal impact force of the wind on the switchgear. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an outdoor windproof switch cabinet to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an outdoor windproof switch cabinet, comprising an outdoor switch cabinet body, upper baffles installed on both sides of the outdoor switch cabinet body, two sets of hollow columns symmetrically installed inside the upper baffles, compression springs installed inside the hollow columns, a support column connected to one end of the compression springs, a connecting plate installed at the end of the support column away from the compression springs, a rotating shaft slidably connected to the side of the connecting plate, a wind-breaking wheel for windproofing connected to the outer periphery of the rotating shaft, a lower baffle slidably connected to the end of the rotating shaft away from the upper baffles, and a wind-breaking plate provided between the upper baffles and the lower baffles.
[0006] Preferably, a fixing block is installed on the vertical inner wall of the outdoor switch cabinet, and a rotating shaft is connected to the side of the fixing block.
[0007] Preferably, return springs are sleeved at both ends of the rotating shaft, and an adjusting baffle is installed on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft.
[0008] Preferably, a protective plate is installed on the vertical inner wall of the outdoor switch cabinet, a filter plate is installed inside the protective plate, and a filter air outlet is provided on the inner bottom wall of the outdoor switch cabinet.
[0009] Preferably, the outdoor switch cabinet is equipped with a cabinet door on its side, and the side of the cabinet door is equipped with a first diagonal strip and a second diagonal strip, and the side of the cabinet door is provided with a horizontal air diffuser.
[0010] Preferably, the bottom of the outdoor switch cabinet is connected to a support leg, the top of the outdoor switch cabinet is installed with a top cover, and air inlets are provided on both sides of the outdoor switch cabinet.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:
[0012] This outdoor windproof switchgear benefits from the structure of the wind-breaking wheel. The wind-breaking plate disperses the wind to both sides of the outdoor switchgear cabinet. The wind blows the wind-breaking wheel to rotate, and the rotation of the wind-breaking wheel can deflect part of the wind direction, thereby reducing the wind force directly acting on the outdoor switchgear cabinet. Under the action of the compression spring, the wind-breaking wheel can move to further change the wind direction and achieve the windproof effect. Compared with the traditional method of directly blocking the wind, this structure can change the direction of the wind flow and reduce the frontal impact of the wind on the switchgear.
[0013] This outdoor windproof switchgear benefits from the structure of the adjustable wind deflector. When the wind force increases, the wind enters from the air inlet, the adjustable wind deflector is pushed, and the filtered air leaks out. The wind passes through the air inlet, along the edge of the adjustable wind deflector, and is discharged from the interior of the outdoor switchgear cabinet through the filtered air outlet. The interior of the protective plate forms a ventilation channel, further reducing the impact of the wind on the outdoor switchgear cabinet.
[0014] This outdoor windproof switchgear benefits from the structure of the first and second diagonal strips. When wind blows towards the switchgear cabinet from the front, the first and second diagonal strips disperse the wind and discharge it from the horizontal air vents, thus achieving a windproof effect again.

[0024] The connection method can be any existing method, such as bonding, welding, or bolting, depending on the actual needs.
[0025] like Figures 1 to 5The outdoor windproof switchgear shown includes an outdoor switchgear cabinet 1, which is made of high-strength metal materials such as stainless steel or galvanized steel plate. These materials have good strength and rigidity, and can withstand the impact of strong winds and external forces. The outdoor switchgear cabinet 1 is fixed outdoors. Upper baffles 3 are installed on both sides of the outdoor switchgear cabinet 1. Two sets of hollow columns 303 are symmetrically installed inside the upper baffles 3. Compression springs 308 are installed inside the hollow columns 303. One end of the compression spring 308 is connected to a support column 304. A connecting plate 305 is installed at the end of the support column 304 away from the compression spring 308. A rotating shaft 306 is slidably connected to the side of the connecting plate 305. The outer periphery of the rotating shaft 306 is connected to... The windbreak wheel 307 is used for wind protection. The end of the rotating shaft 306 away from the upper baffle 3 is slidably connected to the lower baffle 301. A windbreak plate 302 is provided between the upper baffle 3 and the lower baffle 301. When the wind blows from the side towards the outdoor switch cabinet 1, the windbreak plate 302 disperses the wind to both sides of the outdoor switch cabinet 1. The wind blows the windbreak wheel 307 to rotate. The rotation of the windbreak wheel 307 can deflect part of the wind direction, thereby reducing the wind force directly acting on the outdoor switch cabinet 1. Under the action of the compression spring 308, the windbreak wheel 307 can move to further change the wind direction.
[0026] A fixing block 103 is installed on the vertical inner wall of the outdoor switch cabinet 1. A rotating shaft 104 is connected to the side of the fixing block 103. Return springs are sleeved at both ends of the rotating shaft 104. An adjusting wind baffle 105 is installed on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 104. A protective plate 107 is installed on the vertical inner wall of the outdoor switch cabinet 1. A filter plate 108 is installed inside the protective plate 107. A filter air outlet 106 is provided on the inner bottom wall of the outdoor switch cabinet 1. When the wind force increases, the wind enters from the air inlet 109, the adjusting wind baffle 105 is pushed, and the filter air outlet 106 leaks out. The wind passes through the air inlet 109, along the edge of the adjusting wind baffle 105, and is discharged from the interior of the outdoor switch cabinet 1 through the filter air outlet 106, further reducing the impact of the wind on the outdoor switch cabinet 1.
[0027] The outdoor switch cabinet 1 has a cabinet door 2 installed on its side. The cabinet door 2 has a first diagonal strip 201 and a second diagonal strip 202 installed on its side. The cabinet door 2 has a horizontal air diffuser 203 on its side. The bottom of the outdoor switch cabinet 1 is connected to a support leg 102. The top of the outdoor switch cabinet 1 is equipped with a top cover 101. Both sides of the outdoor switch cabinet 1 have air inlets 109. When the wind blows towards the outdoor switch cabinet 1 from the front, the first diagonal strip 201 and the second diagonal strip 202 disperse the wind and discharge it from the horizontal air diffuser 203.
[0028] Working principle
[0029] When using this outdoor windproof switchgear, the cabinet body 1 is placed outdoors and fixed. When wind blows towards the cabinet body 1 from the side, the windbreak plate 302 disperses the wind to both sides of the cabinet body 1. The wind blows the windbreak wheel 307 to rotate, and the rotation of the windbreak wheel 307 can deflect part of the wind direction, thereby reducing the wind force directly acting on the cabinet body 1. When the wind force increases, the wind enters through the air inlet 109, the wind baffle 105 is pushed, and the filtered air outlet 10... 6. The air leaks out through the air inlet 109, along the edge of the adjusting wind deflector 105, and is discharged from the interior of the outdoor switch cabinet 1 through the filter outlet 106, further reducing the impact of the wind on the outdoor switch cabinet 1. When the wind blows towards the outdoor switch cabinet 1 from the front, the first diagonal bar 201 and the second diagonal bar 202 disperse the wind and discharge it from the transverse air diffuser 203. Under the action of the compression spring 308, the wind-breaking wheel 307 can move to further change the wind direction and achieve the effect of windproofing.
