Description

An easy-to-assemble sheet metal cabinet Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of sheet metal cabinet technology, and in particular relates to a sheet metal cabinet that is easy to assemble. Background Technology

[0002] Sheet metal work is a comprehensive cold-working process for thin metal sheets, used to fabricate sheet metal cabinets. However, existing precision sheet metal cabinets are difficult to assemble. When the cabinet is damaged and needs repair, workers must use various fasteners to reassemble it, a cumbersome process that increases time costs and makes disassembly for repairs difficult.

[0003] Utility model patent CN217413952U discloses a precision sheet metal cabinet that is easy to assemble. The cabinet includes a cabinet body, a top plate snapped onto the top of the cabinet body, sliders symmetrically slidably connected inside the top plate, a first locking block fixedly connected to the bottom of the sliders, a first locking groove inside the cabinet body that cooperates with the first locking block, a bottom plate snapped onto the bottom of the cabinet body, a third locking block symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the cabinet body, and a second locking groove inside the bottom plate that cooperates with the third locking block. The beneficial effects of this utility model are: facilitating cabinet installation, saving time spent on equipment installation, and improving work efficiency; air can be exhausted from inside the cabinet under the action of a fan, thereby cooling and dissipating heat from the cabinet.

[0004] However, the above-mentioned device has the following technical problems in actual use:

[0005] First, the above-mentioned device can only remove the top and bottom plates from the cabinet. The cabinet itself is still a rectangular frame. The device cannot further disassemble the cabinet, making it impossible to install or remove the internal support plates, which affects actual operation.

[0006] Second, the height of the internal support plate of the cabinet cannot be adjusted during assembly, resulting in a fixed distance between two adjacent support plates. This will limit the use of the device in certain scenarios during subsequent use. Summary of the Invention

[0007] This utility model provides a sheet metal cabinet that is easy to assemble, aiming to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the upper slat device cannot disassemble the cabinet body, resulting in the inability to disassemble and reassemble the support plate inside the cabinet, and the device cannot adjust the height of the support plate.

[0008] This utility model is implemented as follows: a sheet metal cabinet that is easy to assemble includes: a cabinet body having: multiple vertically arranged support columns, the multiple support columns being arranged in an array, and a cabinet panel being arranged between each pair of adjacent support columns; the two ends and sides of the cabinet panel being detachably connected to the support columns; a top plate being horizontally arranged at the top of the multiple support columns, the top plate being detachably connected to the top of the multiple support columns; and a bottom plate being horizontally arranged at the bottom of the multiple support columns, the bottom plate being detachably connected to the bottom of the multiple support columns; wherein at least one support plate is evenly distributed longitudinally between the top plate and the bottom plate. Support columns are distributed around the outside of the support plate. Each end of the support plate has a height adjustment mechanism, which corresponds to the support column and is movably mounted on the support column. In this design, the cabinet consists of a top plate, a bottom plate, support columns, cabinet panels, and support plates. When the top plate and bottom plate are removed, the cabinet panels can be manually removed from between two adjacent support columns to disassemble the support plates. This method facilitates manual disassembly and replacement of cabinet panels (support columns and support plates), and avoids excessive waste when only the corresponding components need to be replaced.

[0009] In addition, by adjusting the height adjustment mechanism on multiple support columns, the height of the support plate can be easily adjusted manually, thereby adjusting the distance between two adjacent support plates (support plate and top plate, bottom plate) to enable the device to place objects of different sizes.

[0010] Preferably, each of the support columns includes: a connecting plate, with connecting seats fixedly installed at both ends of the connecting plate, and an assembly groove formed on the side wall of the connecting seat away from the connecting plate. The height of the assembly groove is the same as the height of the connecting seat. Assembly blocks are integrally formed and fixedly installed at both ends of the cabinet panel. The assembly blocks are adapted to the assembly groove and are detachably connected to the assembly groove. The height of the connecting seat is equal to that of the connecting plate, and the two connecting seats are distributed at right angles on both sides of the connecting plate. In this scheme, the connecting seats are fixedly installed at both ends of the connecting plate, and the connecting plate has a trapezoidal structure. The connecting seats are fixedly installed on both sides of the connecting plate, and the included angle between the two connecting seats is 90°. When assembling the cabinet panel, the cabinet panel can be placed between the two support columns, with the cabinet panel above the connecting seats. Then, the assembly blocks at both ends of the cabinet panel are inserted into the assembly grooves on both sides from top to bottom, thereby completing the installation of one cabinet panel. The assembly of multiple cabinet panels is completed by repeating the operation.

[0011] Preferably, the assembly block is a T-shaped block, and the assembly groove is a T-shaped groove adapted to the T-shaped block. In this scheme, the assembly groove and the assembly block are arranged in a T-shape, which can ensure the stability of the connecting seat and the cabinet panel after assembly and prevent them from separating. On the other hand, it can also enhance the structural strength of the cabinet panel (support column) and prevent them from separating due to external impacts.

[0012] Preferably, each of the connecting plates has a first fixing hole at its top, and the top plate has a second fixing hole corresponding to the first fixing hole. A first bolt passes through each of the second fixing holes, and the threaded end of the first bolt passes through the second fixing hole and is threaded into the first fixing hole. In this scheme, after the multiple cabinet panels and multiple support columns are installed, the top plate is placed horizontally on top of the multiple connecting seats, and the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole are aligned. Then, the threaded end of the first bolt is manually inserted from the second fixing hole. After the threaded end of the first bolt passes through the second fixing hole, it is inserted into the first fixing hole. The first bolt is manually rotated to screw the first bolt and the first fixing hole together, thereby completing the assembly of the top plate.

[0013] Preferably, each of the connecting plates has a first locking hole at its bottom end, and the base plate has a second locking hole corresponding to multiple first locking holes. A second bolt is provided in each second locking hole, and the threaded end of the second bolt passes through the second locking hole and is threaded into the first locking hole. The base plate also has clearance holes on its side wall away from the connecting plate. The number of clearance holes is the same as the number of second locking holes, and the clearance holes and second locking holes are concentrically arranged. The nut of the second bolt is accommodated in the clearance hole. In this configuration, after multiple cabinet panels and multiple support columns are installed, the second locking holes on the base plate are aligned with the first locking holes at the bottom end of the connecting plate. Then, the threaded end of the second bolt is manually inserted into the second locking hole, passing through the second locking hole and then into the first locking hole. The second bolt is manually rotated to screw the second bolt into the first locking hole, thereby completing the assembly of the top plate.

[0014] It should be explained that when tightening the second bolt, the nut of the second bolt gradually extends into the clearance hole, which ensures that the nut of the second bolt will not affect the horizontal placement of the device during subsequent placement.

[0015] Preferably, the height adjustment mechanism includes: a sliding groove vertically formed on the inner sidewall of the connecting plate; a sliding plate fixedly installed on the end of the support plate; the sliding plate slidably connected to the sliding groove; a plurality of first adjustment holes equally spaced along its height on the sliding plate; and a second adjustment hole communicating with the sliding groove on the outer sidewall of the connecting plate; a fastening bolt passing through the second adjustment hole; the threaded end of the fastening bolt sequentially passing through the second adjustment hole and the first adjustment hole; and a fastening nut threadedly connected to the threaded end of the fastening bolt. In this scheme, when the height of the support plate needs to be adjusted, the operator first drives the sliding plate vertically within the sliding groove to move the corresponding first adjustment hole to a position flush with the second adjustment hole according to a preset height. Then, the operator inserts the threaded end of the fastening bolt from the outside of the connecting plate into the second adjustment hole. The threaded end of the fastening bolt passes through the second adjustment hole and then through the first adjustment hole. A fastening nut is screwed onto the extended threaded end of the fastening bolt, thereby ensuring the height limit of the sliding plate and thus realizing the adjustment of the height of the support plate.

[0016] It should be explained that the sliding plate and the sliding groove are fitted together, and the side wall of the sliding plate away from the second adjustment hole is fixedly installed on the corner of the support plate.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] 1. The cabinet in this device consists of a top plate, a bottom plate, support columns, cabinet panels, and support plates. When the top plate and bottom plate are removed, the cabinet panels can be removed manually from between two adjacent support columns, thereby disassembling the support plates. This method facilitates manual disassembly and replacement of cabinet panels (support columns and support plates), and avoids excessive waste when only the corresponding parts need to be replaced.

[0019] In this device, the height of the support plate can be adjusted manually by adjusting the height adjustment mechanism on multiple support columns, thereby adjusting the distance between two adjacent support plates (support plate and top plate, bottom plate) to meet the needs of placing objects of different sizes.
