Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waterproof sealing technology for controllers, specifically a waterproof sealing component for urban street lighting controllers. Background Technology

[0002] Street lighting controllers are key devices in modern urban lighting systems for the intelligent control and management of street lighting equipment. By integrating advanced electronic technology, communication technology, and software algorithms, they realize functions such as timed control, light control, remote monitoring and management, and brightness adjustment. As an important component of modern urban lighting systems, street lighting controllers are achieving precise control and efficient management of streetlights through intelligent and networked technologies.

[0003] The sealing and waterproofing performance at the connection between the cover and the housing is weak. Repeated opening and closing during long-term use or maintenance can cause moisture to seep into the controller in humid or rainy environments, thus affecting its normal operation or even corroding the internal circuitry and causing damage. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a waterproof sealing component for urban street lighting controllers, so as to solve the technical problem that the sealing and waterproof performance at the connection between the cover plate and the housing is weak, which easily leads to water seeping into the controller and affecting its operation and damaging the circuit.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a waterproof sealing assembly for a city street light controller, comprising a main body and a sealing assembly. The sealing assembly includes a first sealing mechanism and a second sealing mechanism. The first sealing mechanism includes a fixing block. A sealing groove is formed on the outer surface of the fixing block. A first snap-fit ​​strip is provided on one side of the sealing groove, and a second snap-fit ​​strip is provided on the other side of the sealing groove. A slot is formed on the top of the fixing block.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing groove can accommodate the sealing strip. After installation, the sealing strip will be compressed into the sealing groove to form an effective sealing barrier.

[0007] Furthermore, the second sealing mechanism includes a cover, the bottom of which is fixedly connected to a buckle block, and the outer surface of the buckle block is provided with a first snap-fit ​​groove.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the buckle is fixedly connected to the bottom of the buckle cover, and cooperates with the corresponding structure on the main body to play the role of connection and fixation.

[0009] Furthermore, a sealing strip is glued to the bottom of the buckle block, a second snap-fit ​​groove is provided on the outer surface of the sealing strip, and a third snap-fit ​​groove is provided on the inner wall of the sealing strip.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing strip is glued to the bottom of the buckle block. When the buckle cover is fastened to the main body, the sealing strip can fit tightly against the corresponding sealing part of the main body, effectively preventing moisture, dust and other impurities from entering the control chamber.

[0011] Furthermore, a plug is provided on the outer side of the buckle block, and the plug is adapted to the slot.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the insert rod on the outside of the buckle is matched with the corresponding slot on the main body, so that the buckle can be accurately positioned during installation, avoiding problems such as poor sealing or structural damage caused by installation position deviation.

[0013] Furthermore, several heat dissipation strips are fixedly connected to both sides of the main body, and a control compartment is opened inside the main body.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the heat dissipation strips fixedly connected to both sides of the main body significantly increase the contact area between the controller and the outside air. During the operation of the controller, the electronic components will generate heat, which can be transferred to the surrounding air more quickly through the heat dissipation strips, thus accelerating the heat dissipation.

[0015] Furthermore, a first threaded hole is provided at one end of the main body, and a second threaded hole is provided on the outer surface of the cover. The first threaded hole and the second threaded hole are connected by a bolt through a thread.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the bolts are screwed into the first and second threaded holes to firmly fix the cover and the main body together, forming a tight integral structure. This prevents the cover and the main body from easily moving relative to each other, thus enhancing the overall strength and stability of the controller.

[0017] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0018] This utility model, by setting a sealing component, includes a first sealing mechanism and a second sealing mechanism. The first and second locking strips in the first sealing mechanism cooperate with the second, first, and third locking grooves in the second sealing mechanism, and the sealing strip is inserted into the sealing groove to form multiple seals that interlock and fix each other. This multi-locking and sealing strip pressing method enhances the sealing performance at the connection between the cover and the housing, effectively preventing moisture, dust and other impurities from entering the controller, ensuring the normal operation of the controller in humid, rainy and other harsh environments. The plug and slot provide precise guidance for the cover during installation, ensuring that the cover can be accurately fastened to the main body, avoiding the problem of poor sealing caused by installation deviation, and improving installation efficiency and quality.

[0019] This utility model uses bolts, a first threaded hole, and a second threaded hole to securely fix the cover to the main body, forming an integral structure. This enhances the overall strength and stability of the controller. During the tightening of the bolts, downward pressure is applied to the cover. Since the sealing strip is slightly longer than the sealing groove, it is further compressed within the sealing groove, resulting in a tighter contact between the sealing strip and the sealing groove. This improves the sealing effect and provides dual protection for the controller's waterproof and dustproof performance. Attached Figure Description

[0025] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0026] Waterproof sealing components for urban street lighting controllers, such as Figures 1-4As shown, the device includes a main body 1 and a sealing assembly 4. The sealing assembly 4 includes a first sealing mechanism 5 and a second sealing mechanism 6. The first sealing mechanism 5 includes a fixing block 501. A sealing groove 504 is formed on the outer surface of the fixing block 501. A first snap-fit ​​strip 502 is provided on one side of the sealing groove 504, and a second snap-fit ​​strip 503 is provided on the other side of the sealing groove 504. A slot 505 is formed on the top of the fixing block 501. The sealing groove 504 can accommodate the sealing strip 604. After installation, the sealing strip 604 will be compressed into the sealing groove 504 to form an effective sealing barrier. The first snap-fit ​​strip 502 and the second snap-fit ​​strip 503 can cooperate with the snap-fit ​​groove to achieve fast and accurate snap-fit ​​fixing.

[0027] See Figure 3 The second sealing mechanism 6 includes a cover 601, and a fastener block 602 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cover 601. The outer surface of the fastener block 602 is provided with a first snap-fit ​​groove 603. The fastener block 602 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cover 601 and cooperates with the corresponding structure on the main body 1 to play the role of connection and fixation. As the main part of the second sealing mechanism 6, the cover 601 can directly cover the relevant parts of the main body 1 and form a comprehensive physical shield for the entire control compartment 3 and other key areas.

[0028] See Figure 3 A sealing strip 604 is glued to the bottom of the buckle block 602. A second snap-fit ​​groove 605 is provided on the outer surface of the sealing strip 604, and a third snap-fit ​​groove 606 is provided on the inner wall of the sealing strip 604. The sealing strip 604 is glued to the bottom of the buckle block 602. When the buckle cover 601 is fastened to the main body 1, the sealing strip 604 can fit tightly against the corresponding sealing part of the main body 1, effectively preventing moisture, dust and other impurities from entering the control chamber 3. The third snap-fit ​​groove 606 can cooperate with the corresponding snap-fit ​​strip on the buckle block 602, making the connection between the sealing strip 604 and the buckle block 602 more secure.

[0029] See Figure 3 , Figure 4 The outer side of the buckle 602 is provided with a plug rod 607, which is adapted to the slot 505. The plug rod 607 on the outer side of the buckle 602 is adapted to the corresponding slot 505 on the main body 1, so that the buckle cover 601 can be accurately positioned during installation, avoiding problems such as poor sealing or structural damage caused by installation position deviation. The adaptation of the plug rod 607 and the slot 505 lays the foundation for a good waterproof sealing effect, ensuring that the controller can effectively prevent moisture, dust and other impurities from entering the control chamber 3 under various environmental conditions.

[0030] See Figure 1Several heat dissipation strips 2 are fixedly connected to both sides of the main body 1. A control compartment 3 is opened inside the main body 1. The several heat dissipation strips 2 fixedly connected to both sides of the main body 1 significantly increase the contact area between the controller and the outside air. During the operation of the controller, the electronic components will generate heat. This heat can be transferred to the surrounding air more quickly through the heat dissipation strips 2, accelerating the heat dissipation. The control compartment 3 opened inside the main body 1 provides a dedicated installation and operating space for the electronic components of the controller.

[0031] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 One end of the main body 1 has a first threaded hole 7, and the outer surface of the cover 601 has a second threaded hole 8. The first threaded hole 7 and the second threaded hole 8 are connected by a bolt 9 through threads. The bolt 9 is screwed into the first threaded hole 7 and the second threaded hole 8, which firmly fixes the cover 601 and the main body 1 together, forming a tight integral structure. This prevents the cover 601 and the main body 1 from easily moving relative to each other, thus enhancing the overall strength and stability of the controller. During the tightening of the bolt 9, a downward pressure is generated on the cover 601. Since the sealing strip 604 is slightly longer than the sealing groove 504, this pressure will further compress the sealing strip 604 within the sealing groove 504.

[0032] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, insert the plug 607 into the slot 505 to provide guidance for the installation of the cover 601. When the cover 601 is fastened to the main body 1, the first snap-fit ​​strip 502 is inserted into the second snap-fit ​​groove 605 and the first snap-fit ​​groove 603 in sequence, and the second snap-fit ​​strip 503 is inserted into the third snap-fit ​​groove 606. At the same time, the sealing strip 604 is inserted into the sealing groove 504. Then, the bolt 9 is screwed into the second threaded hole 8 and the first threaded hole 7 to fix the cover 601 to the main body 1 and press the sealing strip 604, which is slightly longer than the sealing groove 504, together.
