Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of [field name missing], and relates to an outdoor box with a rainproof structure. Background Technology
[0002] With the continuous development of the advertising industry, advertising light boxes equipped with LED lights are becoming increasingly popular. These light boxes are widely distributed in outdoor public places such as roadsides, streets, commercial districts, parks, and highways to achieve good promotional effects. The rapid development of the modern economy has made people increasingly value the role of advertising. Effective advertising is a crucial element for achieving good economic benefits for their products. In recent years, the domestic advertising machine industry has flourished. This is partly because print advertising cannot meet the needs of modern advertising, and partly because the price of LCD screens has dropped significantly, making the cost of installing outdoor advertising screens increasingly lower. Large shopping malls, bus stops, subway stations, and even small shops often use advertising light boxes to introduce and promote products. The size of these advertising light boxes is generally very large, exceeding the standard sheet metal dimensions. Manufacturers often use splicing methods to assemble small boxes into larger ones.
[0003] However, dividing the large box into smaller boxes, with light source modules installed inside, power lines connecting the modules, and wiring harnesses connecting the smaller boxes, makes it easy for rainwater to enter the box through gaps during rainy weather. This can corrode the internal structure of the light box, reduce the lifespan of the device, and hinder its long-term use. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem in the existing technology where advertising light boxes have a spliced structure, making it easy for rainwater to enter the interior of the box through gaps during rainy weather, corroding the internal structure, reducing the lifespan of the device, and hindering its long-term use. This invention provides a solution...
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] An outdoor box with a rainproof structure includes a box shell, wherein a protrusion is provided at the upper end of the box shell or a recess corresponding to the protrusion is provided at the lower end, and wire holes are provided on both the protrusion and the recess.
[0007] The side of the housing has a side cable hole, and a guide groove is provided on one side of the side cable hole. The guide groove is located on the inner wall of the housing.
[0008] The further improvement of this utility model is as follows:
[0009] The protrusion is connected to the upper end face of the housing via a first smooth transition structure.
[0010] The recessed portion is connected to the lower end face of the housing via a second smooth transition structure.
[0011] The contours of the first smooth transition structure and the second smooth transition structure are adapted to each other.
[0012] The first smooth transition structure is a continuous curved surface that smoothly connects the protrusion and the upper end face of the housing.
[0013] The second smooth transition structure is a continuous curved surface that smoothly connects the recessed part and the lower end face of the housing.
[0014] When the housing is assembled vertically, the protrusions are embedded inside the recesses, and the protrusions and recesses are fitted with a clearance.
[0015] The flow guide groove includes parallel and symmetrically arranged support plates, which are perpendicularly connected to the inner wall of the housing and are located on both sides of the side wire passage hole.
[0016] An inclined plate is installed between the two support plates. The lower edge of the inclined plate is connected to the lower edge of the side wire hole, and the upper edge of the inclined plate extends away from the side wire hole.
[0017] The inclined plate forms an acute angle with the inner wall of the box shell.
[0018] It also includes a connecting plate, which is placed between the two support plates;
[0019] The lower end of the connecting plate is connected to the upper edge of the inclined plate.
[0020] The side through-hole is rectangular.
[0021] The flow channel is welded to the inner wall of the housing.
[0022] An outdoor box with a rainproof structure includes a box shell, a protrusion at the upper end of the box shell and a recess at the lower end corresponding to the protrusion, and wire holes are provided on both the protrusion and the recess.
[0023] The side of the housing has a side cable hole, and a guide groove is provided on one side of the side cable hole. The guide groove is located on the inner wall of the housing.
[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0025] This utility model discloses an outdoor box with a rainproof structure. The upper end of the box shell is provided with a protrusion or the lower end is provided with a corresponding recess. When the outdoor box needs to be spliced vertically, the protrusion and the recess can be spliced together to prevent rainwater from seeping into the box through the splicing seam. When splicing horizontally, the drainage channel can guide the seeping rainwater to the gap between the two box supports and then flow out, preventing rainwater from entering the box and avoiding the risk of water accumulation.
[0026] Furthermore, in this utility model, the smooth transition structure smoothly connects the continuous curved surface of the protrusion and the end face of the box shell, so that the water flow is guided away from the root of the protrusion along the curved surface, avoiding water seepage into the box body, and eliminating assembly stress concentration.
[0027] Furthermore, in this utility model, the smooth transition structure between the protrusion and the recess forms a curved sealing channel when the boxes are stacked, forcing rainwater to be guided away along the curved outer wall. Furthermore, in this utility model...
[0028] Furthermore, in this invention, an acute angle is formed between the inclined plate and the inner wall of the box shell, which directs the rainwater flow in a specific direction, resulting in a better flow guidance effect. Attached Figure Description

[0041] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0042] See Figures 1 to 4 This utility model discloses an outdoor enclosure with a rainproof structure. The wiring harness passage structure between the enclosures is redesigned to: 1. Improve the waterproof effect of the enclosure, reduce the corrosion of electrical components inside the enclosure by rainwater, extend the service life of the device, improve safety, and effectively prevent leakage and electric shock accidents caused by water ingress. The side plates on the main body have reserved positions for wiring holes, and the positions of the connecting screws between the two parts are designed in advance. The wiring holes between the enclosures are changed to a concave-convex design, with the upper enclosure being concave and the lower enclosure being convex. Fastening screws are installed on both sides to make the two enclosures tightly connected, preventing rainwater from flowing from top to bottom into the lower enclosure.
[0043] Properly protecting the enclosures from rain can effectively improve the efficiency of the light screen, enabling safe and convenient normal operation, monitoring, and maintenance. For components with the same structure that can be moved, easy interchangeability is possible. In case of failure, it will not affect adjacent equipment, facilitating inspection and replacement. Appropriate simplification of the product structure ensures that the designed product can well meet the user's requirements in terms of performance and structure.
[0044] Specifically, it includes:
[0045] Example 1
[0046] An outdoor box with a rainproof structure includes a box shell, wherein a protrusion is provided at the upper end of the box shell or a recess corresponding to the protrusion is provided at the lower end, and a wire passage hole is provided on both the protrusion and the recess; a side wire passage hole 18 is provided on the side of the box shell, and a guide groove 15 is provided on one side of the side wire passage hole 18, and the guide groove 15 is located on the inner wall of the box shell.
[0047] Furthermore, in this embodiment,
[0048] When the boxes are joined together vertically, the protrusions can be embedded inside the recesses. The specific structures of the recesses and protrusions are as follows:
[0049] The protrusion 10 is connected to the upper end face 11 of the housing through a first smooth transition structure 12, and the recess is connected to the lower end face 13 of the housing through a second smooth transition structure 14. At the same time, the contours of the first smooth transition structure 12 and the second smooth transition structure 14 are adapted to each other to ensure the compatibility of the upper and lower housings.
[0050] Furthermore, the first smooth transition structure 12 is a continuous curved surface that smoothly connects the protrusion 10 and the upper end face 11 of the housing; the second smooth transition structure 14 is a continuous curved surface that smoothly connects the recess and the lower end face 13 of the housing. When splicing, the protrusion and the recess fit together with a gap, preventing rainwater from seeping into the interior of the housing through the splicing seam, and also avoiding stress concentration.
[0051] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the guide channel 15 includes parallel and symmetrically arranged support plates 16, which are vertically connected to the inner wall of the housing. The support plates 16 are located on both sides of the side cable passage hole 18. An inclined plate 17 is arranged between the two support plates 16. The lower edge of the inclined plate 17 is connected to the lower edge of the side cable passage hole 18, and the upper edge of the inclined plate 17 extends away from the side cable passage hole 18. The inclined plate 17 forms an acute angle with the inner wall of the housing, so that the water flow generates a wall adhesion effect to accelerate detachment and avoid water back splashing.
[0052] Furthermore, in this embodiment, a connecting plate 19 is also included. The connecting plate 19 is placed between two support plates 16, and the lower end of the connecting plate 19 is connected to the upper edge of the inclined plate 17, resulting in a better flow guiding effect.
[0053] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the guide channel 15 is installed by welding.
[0054] Example 2
[0055] This embodiment also discloses an outdoor box with a rainproof structure. The difference from Embodiment 1 is that, in this embodiment, the upper end of the box shell is provided with a protrusion, and the lower end is provided with a recess corresponding to the protrusion. Both the protrusion and the recess are provided with wire passage holes. The side of the box shell is provided with a side wire passage hole 18, and a guide groove 15 is provided on one side of the side wire passage hole 18. The guide groove 15 is located on the inner wall of the box shell.
[0056] In the assembly of the box body, this embodiment is mainly used for the assembly of the middle layer.
[0057] Specifically, this utility model embodiment discloses a spliced box structure:
[0058] Referring to the figure, the top layer of the box has a flat upper surface and a recessed lower surface. The bottom layer of the box has a flat lower surface and a raised upper surface. The middle layer of the box has the box structure of embodiment 2, with a raised upper surface and a corresponding recessed lower surface. Specifically:
[0059] The first cabinet 1, the second cabinet 2, and the third cabinet 3 are the top cabinets. Their tops are not perforated, but their bottoms have recessed holes made with a mold. They mate with the fourth cabinet 4, the fifth cabinet 5, and the sixth cabinet 6 in the middle layer. The tops of the fourth cabinet 4, the fifth cabinet 5, and the sixth cabinet 6 are punched out with a mold to fit into the recessed mold of the bottom plate of the upper cabinet. The bottom plates of the fourth cabinet 4, the fifth cabinet 5, and the sixth cabinet 6 have pre-drilled recessed holes to mate with the seventh cabinet 7, the eighth cabinet 8, and the ninth cabinet 9 in the bottom layer. The tops of the seventh cabinet 7, the eighth cabinet 8, and the ninth cabinet 9 are punched out with a mold to fit into the recessed mold of the bottom plate of the upper cabinet. The bottoms of the seventh cabinet 7, the eighth cabinet 8, and the ninth cabinet 9 are not perforated. The perforated areas of each cabinet are connected by bolts to ensure a tight fit between the top and bottom. The protruding parts of the lower cabinets act as a waterproof platform to prevent rainwater from seeping in from top to bottom.
[0060] Description of the waterproof structure on both sides of the enclosure:
[0061] The first box 1, the fourth box 4, the seventh box 7, the second box 2, the fifth box 5, and the eighth box 8 also need to have wiring on their sides. The sides of the boxes are welded with guide grooves 15. This welding structure adopts a watertight welding method, and the height of the guide grooves 15 is higher than the openings between the boxes. The inclined plate 17 can effectively prevent rainwater from flowing into the sides of the boxes from top to bottom.
[0062] The wiring harness routing structure between the cabinets has been redesigned, with a concave-convex structure and a beveled welding structure to prevent rainwater from entering the cabinet through the gaps at the light box connections during rainy weather, thus improving the service life of the outdoor cabinets.
[0063] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
