Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of switchgear equipment technology, and more specifically, to a low-voltage switchgear with fire protection. Background Technology
[0002] Fire-resistant low-voltage switchgear is designed for AC 50Hz, 380V power distribution systems, used for power conversion and control in power, lighting, and distribution applications. This product features high breaking capacity, good dynamic and thermal stability, flexible electrical design, convenient combination, strong series compatibility and practicality, and a novel structure. Furthermore, for fire protection, a temperature sensor is typically installed inside the cabinet to detect internal temperature and issue an alarm signal promptly.
[0003] Low-voltage switchgear typically houses multiple electrical components. In most technologically advanced low-voltage switchgear, there are mounting plates with through holes drilled into them. The mounting holes for electrical components match these through holes. However, most mounting plates are fixed inside the switchgear. Therefore, when workers need to install electrical components, they have to bend over or even crawl into the cabinet. Due to the limited space inside the cabinet, installing electrical components is very inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address at least one of the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a low-voltage switchgear with fire protection, comprising a housing and a door hinged to the housing. The housing is characterized by the following features: a mounting plate, a column slidably connected to the mounting plate, and a crossbar for fixing to the column are fixedly disposed within the housing. Each mounting plate has a mounting groove along its length. The column is slidably connected to the mounting groove on the mounting plate. A first fixing component is disposed on the column, and a second fixing component is disposed on the crossbar. The first fixing component fixes the column to the mounting plate, and the second fixing component fixes the crossbar to the column. A first sliding groove for placing the crossbar is provided on the side of the mounting plate along its length. A second sliding groove communicating with the first sliding groove is provided on the column along its length. The first and second sliding grooves communicate with each other, and the crossbar is slidably connected within the first sliding groove.
[0005] Optionally, the first fixing component includes a fixing block slidably connected to the column and a fixing spring fixed to the fixing block. The end of the fixing spring away from the fixing block is fixed to the column, and the fixing spring is used to push the fixing block to move upward. A fixing groove is formed on the inner wall of the mounting groove, and the fixing groove and the mounting groove are in communication. When the column slides into the housing and the fixing block on the column corresponds to the fixing groove, the fixing spring pushes the fixing block to move into the fixing groove to fix the position of the column.
[0006] Optionally, the mounting plate is provided with a pushing component, which is used to push the fixing block away from the fixing groove. A pushing spring is provided in the mounting groove, with one end of the pushing spring fixed to the inner wall of the mounting groove and the other end fixed to the column.
[0007] Optionally, the pushing assembly includes a pushing rod slidably connected to the mounting plate and a pushing surface disposed on the pushing rod. The pushing surface gradually slopes upward in a direction away from the cabinet door. A pushing groove is provided on the fixing block. The pushing rod passes through the pushing groove and slides within the pushing groove. The pushing surface abuts against the inner wall of the pushing groove.
[0008] Optionally, mounting blocks are fixedly installed at both ends of the crossbar, and a receiving groove is provided in the mounting block, with the second fixing component disposed in the receiving groove.
[0009] Optionally, the second fixing component includes a mounting rod slidably connected to the mounting block, a mounting plate fixed to the mounting rod, a fixing strip fixed to the mounting rod, and a locking spring sleeved on the mounting rod. One end of the locking spring is fixed to the mounting plate, and the other end is fixed to the inner wall of the receiving groove. The fixing strip is located outside the receiving groove. A locking groove is formed on the inner wall of the second sliding groove, and the locking groove communicates with the second sliding groove.
[0010] Optionally, two mounting plates and two columns are provided, and each of the two mounting plates has a mounting groove for mounting the column.
[0011] Optionally, a temperature sensor is provided inside the housing to detect the temperature inside the housing, an alarm is provided inside the housing, and a controller is provided inside the housing to connect the temperature sensor and the alarm.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial technical effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] 1. When it is necessary to replace the components on the crossbar, the first fixing component is no longer fixed in opposition. Then, the crossbar and column are pulled out from the housing. This makes it easier to replace the components on the crossbar, reducing the need for workers to bend over or even crawl into the cabinet to install electrical components. This makes it more convenient to install and remove components.
[0014] 2. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature has increased, it sends a signal to the controller, which will then issue an alarm. This allows staff to promptly inspect the corresponding enclosure, reducing the risk of fire inside the enclosure and enabling the switchgear to have fire protection functionality.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the following description is provided in conjunction with the appendix. Figure 1-7 This application will be described in further detail.
[0024] This utility model embodiment provides a low-voltage switchgear with fire protection, see reference. Figures 1 to 7 The fire-resistant low-voltage switchgear includes a housing 01, a cabinet door 02 hinged to the housing 01, a mounting plate 03 fixed inside the housing 01, a column 04 slidably connected to the mounting plate 03, and a crossbar 05 fixed to the column 04. The crossbar 05 is used to install components. Two mounting plates 03 are provided, each with a mounting groove 06. The mounting groove 06 is set along the length direction of the mounting plate 03, and the mounting plate 03 is set along the width direction of the housing 01. The column 04 is slidably connected to the mounting groove 06 on the mounting plate 03. A first fixing component 1 is provided on the column 04, and a second fixing component 2 is provided on the crossbar 05. The first fixing component 1 is used to fix the column 04 to the mounting plate 03, and the second fixing component 2 is used to fix the crossbar 05 to the column 04.
[0025] A first sliding groove 07 for placing crossbars 05 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 03. The first sliding groove 07 is set along the length of the mounting plate 03. At the same time, a second sliding groove 08 is provided on the column 04 for communicating with the first sliding groove 07. The second sliding groove 08 is set along the length of the column 04. The first sliding groove 07 and the second sliding groove 08 are connected, and the crossbars 05 are slidably connected in the first sliding groove 07. In the initial state, all the crossbars 05 in the housing 01 are in the first sliding groove 07. When it is necessary to install components, the column 04 is pulled outward to move the column 04 closer to the position of the cabinet door 02. At the same time, the crossbars 05 are at the upper end of the housing 01. The operator directly installs the components on the crossbars 05 at the top. After the components on the crossbar 05 are installed, slide the crossbar 05 outwards to move it to the connection between the first slide groove 07 and the second slide groove 08. Finally, move it vertically into the second slide groove 08. When it reaches the lowest position, fix the crossbar 05 to the column 04 through the second fixing component 2. Then, slide multiple crossbars 05 in sequence so that they are spaced apart along the length of the column 04. After all the components on the multiple crossbars 05 are installed, push the column 04 inwards. Then, the column 04 moves the crossbars 05 and the components on the crossbars 05 into the interior. Fix the column 04 to the mounting plate 03 through the first fixing component 1, thereby facilitating the installation of components.
[0026] When it is necessary to replace the components on the crossbar 05, the first fixing component 1 is no longer fixed to the column 04, and then the crossbar 05 and the column 04 are pulled out from the housing 01. At this time, it is convenient to replace the components on the crossbar 05, reducing the need for workers to bend over or even crawl into the cabinet to install electrical components, and making it more convenient to install and disassemble components.
[0027] The first fixing component 1 includes a fixing block 11 slidably connected to the column 04 and a fixing spring 12 fixed to the fixing block 11. The end of the fixing spring 12 away from the fixing block 11 is fixed to the column 04, and the fixing spring 12 is used to push the fixing block 11 to move upward. A fixing groove 13 is provided on the inner wall of the mounting groove 06, and the fixing groove 13 is connected to the mounting groove 06. When the column 04 slides into the housing 01 and the fixing block 11 on the column 04 corresponds to the fixing groove 13, the fixing spring 12 pushes the fixing block 11 to move into the fixing groove 13, thereby fixing the position of the column 04. In this embodiment, two columns 04 are provided, and two first fixing components 1 are provided on each of the two columns 04. The two first fixing components 1 are located at both ends of the column 04, which can improve the fixing strength of the column 04.
[0028] A pushing component 3 is provided on the mounting plate 03. The pushing component 3 is used to push the fixing block 11 away from the fixing groove 13, so that the column 04 can be pulled outward. In order to facilitate the movement of the column 04 to the outside of the housing 01, a pushing spring 09 is provided in the mounting groove 06. One end of the pushing spring 09 is fixed to the inner wall of the mounting groove 06, and the other end is fixed to the column 04. When the fixing block 11 and the fixing groove 13 are separated, the column 04 is pushed outward by the action of the pushing spring 09, so that the crossbar 05 on the column 04 can move to the opening of the housing 01, thereby facilitating the installation of components on the crossbar 05.
[0029] The pushing assembly 3 includes a pushing rod 31 slidably connected to the mounting plate 03 and a pushing surface 32 disposed on the pushing rod 31. The pushing surface 32 gradually tilts upward in the direction away from the cabinet door 02. At the same time, a pushing groove 33 is provided on the fixing block 11. The pushing rod 31 passes through the pushing groove 33 and slides within the pushing groove 33. The pushing surface 32 abuts against the inner wall of the pushing groove 33. When the pushing rod 31 moves into the housing 01, the pushing surface 32 on the pushing rod 31 gradually moves. Then, under the action of the pushing groove 33, the fixing block 11 is pushed away from the fixing groove 13. Then, the pushing spring 09 pushes the column 04 outward. After the components of the crossbar 05 and the crossbar 05 rope are installed, the pushing rod 31 is reset. Then, the column 04 is pushed inward. The pushing spring 09 is gradually compressed. Finally, when the fixing block 11 and the fixing groove 13 correspond, the fixing spring 12 pushes the fixing block 11 into the fixing groove 13, thereby fixing the column 04.
[0030] Mounting blocks 5 are fixedly installed at both ends of the crossbar 05. The mounting blocks 5 are provided with receiving grooves 41. The second fixing component 2 is set in the receiving grooves 41. The second fixing component 2 includes a mounting rod 21 slidably connected to the mounting blocks 5, a mounting plate 22 fixed to the mounting rod 21, a fixing strip 23 fixed to the mounting rod 21, and a locking spring 24 sleeved on the mounting rod 21. One end of the locking spring 24 is fixed to the mounting plate 22, and the other end is fixed to the inner wall of the receiving groove 41. The fixing strip 23 is located outside the receiving groove 41. A locking groove 25 is opened on the inner wall of the second slide groove 08. The locking groove 25 is connected to the second slide groove 08. Multiple locking grooves 25 are provided. Multiple locking grooves 25 are spaced apart along the length direction of the column 04. The locking spring 24 is used to pull the fixing strip 23 to move to the locking groove 25, and then fix the position of the crossbar 05. Since the second fixing component 2 is provided at both ends of the crossbar 05, the fixing strength of the crossbar 05 can be improved.
[0031] A temperature sensor is installed inside the housing 01 to detect the temperature inside the housing 01. An alarm and a controller are also installed inside the housing 01. The controller is used to connect the temperature sensor and the alarm. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature has increased, the controller sends a signal to the alarm, which will then sound an alarm. This allows the staff to promptly inspect the housing 01 and reduce the possibility of fire inside the housing 01, thus enabling the switchgear to have fire protection functions.
[0032] The implementation principle of a fire-resistant low-voltage switchgear according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: In the initial state, the fixing block 11 is disengaged from the fixing groove 13, and then the spring 09 pushes the column 04 to the opening of the outer shell. At this time, the crossbars 05 inside the shell 01 are all in the first sliding groove 07, and the locking spring 24 is in a compressed state. Then, components are installed on the outermost crossbar 05. After the components are installed on the outermost crossbar 05, the crossbar 05 is pushed outward, and then the mounting block 5 on the crossbar 05 moves from the first sliding groove 07 to the second sliding groove 08, so that the mounting block 5 slides in the second sliding groove 08, and the crossbar 05 with the components moves to the bottom. Align the fixing strip 23 with the locking groove 25. Under the action of the locking spring 24, push the fixing strip 23 into the locking groove 25 to fix the position of the crossbar 05. Finally, move the upper crossbar 05 into the second slide groove 08 in sequence. After all the crossbars 05 are fixed to the column 04, push the column 04 inward. The column 04 drives the crossbars 05 to move. Then push the spring 09 to be gradually compressed. When the fixing block 11 and the fixing groove 13 are aligned, the fixing spring 12 pushes the fixing block 11 into the fixing groove 13, thereby fixing the position of the column 04. This facilitates the installation of components and reduces the workload of the staff.
