Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of communication cable branch box technology, specifically a communication cable branch box. Background Technology
[0002] Communication cable distribution boxes are important devices used in communication networks for branching, distributing, and managing cable lines. When the line is long and the cable length cannot meet the requirements, using multiple intermediate joints to connect the lines would increase safety hazards. In such cases, cable distribution boxes are considered for switching to reduce the risk of failure.
[0003] Currently, communication cable distribution boxes used in mountainous areas during the rainy season are prone to condensation due to the high humidity caused by continuous rainfall. Existing equipment typically has ventilation holes for heat dissipation, but when humid air enters the equipment, it can easily cause condensation inside the distribution box, making metal parts such as copper cable connectors and screws prone to oxidation and rust, resulting in poor contact and inconvenience in use. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a communication cable branch box to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a communication cable branch box, comprising: a branch box body; a drying chamber disposed on the branch box body; a plurality of drying mechanisms disposed inside the drying chamber; a plurality of heat-absorbing plates disposed inside the drying chamber and horizontally distributed; a plurality of baffles disposed inside the drying chamber and horizontally distributed, wherein the plurality of baffles and the plurality of heat-absorbing plates are configured to cooperate to form an S-shaped channel inside the drying chamber; and a cooling fan mounted on the drying chamber.
[0006] As a further preferred embodiment of this technical solution, it further includes: a mounting plate, movably disposed inside the drying oven, with one side of the mounting plate fixedly connected to one side of a plurality of the drying mechanisms; an L-shaped fixing bracket disposed on the mounting plate; and a limiting bracket rotatably disposed on the drying oven, wherein the limiting bracket and the L-shaped fixing bracket are configured to cooperate with the mounting plate when it is installed on the drying oven.

[0012] This utility model provides a communication cable branch box, which has the following advantages:
[0013] (1) This utility model blows the gas outside the branch box into the drying box by turning on the cooling fan. When the gas enters the drying box, it adsorbs the moisture in the gas as it passes through the desiccant in the drying mechanism. At the same time, the S-shaped channel formed by the heat absorption plate and the baffle can prolong the flow time of the gas in the drying box, further adsorbing the moisture in the gas. This structural design can reduce the entry of high humidity gas into the branch box and improve the service life of the internal structure of the equipment.
[0014] (2) Through the structural design of the heat dissipation device, heat absorption strip and heat absorption plate, when the gas is blown into the drying box, the heat absorption plate and heat absorption strip conduct the heat in the gas to the other end of the heat absorption plate. When the heat dissipation device is turned on, the heat dissipation device cools down the conducted heat. This structural design can improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the equipment.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0021] This utility model provides a technical solution: such as Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a communication cable branch box includes: a branch box body 1; a drying box 2 disposed on the branch box body 1; a plurality of drying mechanisms 11 disposed inside the drying box 2; a plurality of heat-absorbing plates 5 disposed inside the drying box 2 and horizontally distributed; a plurality of baffles 12 disposed inside the drying box 2 and horizontally distributed, wherein the plurality of baffles 12 and the plurality of heat-absorbing plates 5 are configured to cooperate to form an S-shaped channel inside the drying box 2; and a cooling fan 10 mounted on the drying box 2, wherein the air outlet of the drying box 2 is aligned with the air inlet of the branch box body 1.
[0022] By turning on the cooling fan 10, the air outside the branch box body 1 is blown into the drying box 2. When the air entering the drying box 2 passes through the desiccant in the drying mechanism 11, the moisture in the air is adsorbed. At the same time, the S-shaped channel formed in the heat absorption plate 5 and the baffle 12 can prolong the flow time of the air in the drying box 2, further adsorbing the moisture in the air. This structural design can reduce the amount of high humidity air entering the branch box body 1 and improve the service life of the internal structure of the equipment.
[0023] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, it also includes: a mounting plate 4, which is movably disposed inside the drying chamber 2, and one side of the mounting plate 4 is fixedly connected to one side of several drying mechanisms 11; an L-shaped fixing bracket 13, which is disposed on the mounting plate 4; and a limiting bracket 14, which is rotatably disposed on the drying chamber 2. The limiting bracket 14 and the L-shaped fixing bracket 13 are configured to cooperate with the mounting plate 4 when it is installed on the drying chamber 2.
[0024] By rotating the limiting frame 14, the limiting frame 14 is moved out of the L-shaped fixing frame 13, releasing the restriction of the mounting plate 4 in the drying box 2. By pulling the handle on the mounting plate 4, the mounting plate 4 and the drying mechanism 11 are taken out of the drying box 2, thereby adding and replacing the desiccant in the drying mechanism 11.
[0025] like Figure 2 - Figure 4 As shown, it also includes: a heat dissipation device 15, installed on the heat absorption plate 5; and several heat absorption strips 16, installed on the heat absorption plate 5 and arranged in parallel. The heat dissipation device 15 adopts a heat sink or a heat dissipation semiconductor, and the cold end of the heat dissipation semiconductor is in contact with one side of the heat absorption plate 5.
[0026] Through the structural design of the heat dissipation device 15, the heat absorption strip 16 and the heat absorption plate 5, when the gas is blown into the drying chamber 2, the heat absorption plate 5 and the heat absorption strip 16 conduct the heat in the gas to the other end of the heat absorption plate 5. The heat dissipation device 15 is turned on and the heat dissipation device 15 cools down the conducted heat. This structural design can improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the equipment.
[0027] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes: a filter screen 17, which is installed on the drying oven 2.
[0028] Through the structural design of the filter screen 17, impurities and dust in the gas entering the branch box body 1 can be filtered, reducing the amount of dust entering the branch box body 1 and improving the service life of the branch box body 1.
[0029] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it also includes: an exhaust port 7, which is opened through the branch box body 1; a protective frame 3, which is set on the branch box body 1; and a protective platform 6, which is fixed to the upper end of the drying box 2. The exhaust port 7 is used to exhaust the heat dissipation gas, the protective frame 3 is used to prevent rainwater from entering the branch box body 1 from the protective frame 3 in rainy weather, and the protective platform 6 is used to protect the branch box body 1 and can quickly drain the rainwater on the top of the device.
[0030] like Figure 2 - Figure 4 As shown, the drying mechanism 11 includes a drying frame and a desiccant, wherein the drying frame has multiple holes, and the desiccant is activated carbon, silica gel, calcium chloride, etc.
[0031] like Figure 2 As shown, it also includes: a mounting frame 8, which is set on the branch box body 1; and an adsorption plate 9, which is movably set in the mounting frame 8. The structure of the adsorption plate 9 is designed to dry the gas entering the branch box body 1 from the exhaust port 7.
[0032] This utility model provides a communication cable branch box, the specific working principle of which is as follows:
[0033] When the temperature inside the branch box body 1 is high after prolonged use, the cooling fan 10 is turned on first. When the gas is blown into the drying chamber 2, the heat absorption plate 5 and the heat absorption strip 16 conduct the heat in the gas to the other end of the heat absorption plate 5. The heat dissipation device 15 is then turned on to cool down the conducted heat. The cooled gas is blown into the branch box body 1 to cool down the electrical components inside the branch box body 1. At the same time as the gas is cooled, the desiccant in the drying mechanism 11 adsorbs the moisture in the gas. Meanwhile, the S-shaped channel formed by the heat absorption plate 5 and the baffle 12 can prolong the flow time of the gas in the drying chamber 2, further adsorbing the moisture in the gas and improving the service life of the equipment.
[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
