Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical equipment accessories technology, and in particular to a switch panel with a protective cover structure. Background Technology

[0002] Switch panels are widely used in daily life and industrial production to control various electrical equipment.

[0003] However, traditional switch panels are usually directly exposed to the external environment and are easily affected by factors such as dust, moisture, oil, and external impacts. The intrusion of dust and moisture can cause short circuits in the internal circuits of the switch, affecting its normal operation and even causing safety accidents. Although there are some protective measures on the market, most of them are relatively simple, such as using ordinary plastic film to cover the switch, which has limited protective effect and is easy to fall off.

[0004] To address the above issues, we have introduced a switch panel with a protective cover structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model discloses a switch panel with a protective cover structure, which aims to solve the technical problems in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A switch panel with a protective cover structure includes a switch panel body and a circuit box. The switch panel body is connected to the circuit box by two fastening screws. The panel also includes a protective cover body made of transparent high-strength plastic, connected to one side of the switch panel body via a hinge. A snap-fit ​​mechanism is provided at the bottom of the protective cover body, and two slots are formed at the bottom of the switch panel body. When the protective cover body is closed, the snap-fit ​​mechanism engages with the slots. A sealing strip is embedded in one edge of the protective cover body, and a sealing groove is formed on one edge of the switch panel body to seal the gap between the protective cover body and the switch panel body.

[0008] Normally, the protective cover is closed. The limiting pin in the buckle mechanism at the bottom engages with the slot at the bottom of the switch panel, fixing the protective cover in place. The sealing strip is embedded in the sealing groove, effectively preventing moisture and fumes from entering the switch panel. Even when there is a large amount of moisture and fumes, the switch buttons and circuit sockets are not corroded by moisture and fumes due to the sealing effect of the protective cover, ensuring the normal use and service life of the switch panel. When the switch needs to be operated, open the protective cover and close it after operation.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the latching mechanism includes two fixed plates, a rotating rod, two limiting pins, a torsion spring, and a toggle plate. The two fixed plates are fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective cover body. The rotating rod is rotatably connected between the two fixed plates. The two limiting pins are fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod and cooperate with the latching groove. The torsion spring is sleeved on the outside of the rotating rod and located between the two limiting pins. Both ends of the torsion spring rest on one side of the limiting pins, and the middle end of the torsion spring contacts the bottom of the protective cover body. The toggle plate is fixedly connected between one side of the two limiting pins.

[0010] When the protective cover is closed, the force of the torsion spring keeps the limit pin firmly locked in the slot. When it is necessary to open the protective cover to operate the switch, use your finger to move the toggle plate. The toggle plate drives the rotating rod to rotate, causing the limit pin to disengage from the slot, thereby opening the protective cover. After the operation is completed, release the toggle plate. Under the action of the torsion spring, the limit pin will lock back into the slot, closing the protective cover and effectively protecting the switch panel.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the switch panel body is made of insulating and flame-retardant material, and integrates switch buttons and circuit sockets inside.

[0012] The switch panel's insulating and flame-retardant properties ensure that even if an electrical spark comes into contact with the switch panel, it will not cause a fire. At the same time, the integrated switch buttons and circuit sockets facilitate workers' operation of equipment and connection of electrical appliances.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, anti-slip protrusions are fixedly connected at equal intervals on one side of the toggle plate.

[0014] When it is necessary to open the main operating switch of the protective cover, the toggle plate has anti-slip protrusions, so even if your hands are wet and slippery, you can easily move the toggle plate to disengage the limit pin from the slot and open the main body of the protective cover.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, a wiring hole is provided at the bottom of the inside of the circuit box, and mounting positioning grooves are provided at both ends of one side of the inside of the circuit box, with mounting expansion screws provided inside each mounting positioning groove.

[0016] The electrician attaches the circuit box to the wall, aligns the mounting slot with the pre-drilled hole in the wall, and then screws the expansion screws into the hole. After tightening, the circuit box is firmly fixed to the wall. The wires are then connected through the wiring hole. The switch panel body is then installed on the circuit box with fastening screws. Finally, the protective cover body is installed, completing the installation of the entire switch panel body.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the transparent high-strength plastic material of the protective cover body is PC polycarbonate.

[0018] The main body of the protective cover is made of PC polycarbonate material, which has good strength and transparency. The PC polycarbonate material of the protective cover can resist moisture erosion and maintain its shape stability.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, one side of each limiting pin is provided with an inclined surface that cooperates with the slot.

[0020] The inclined surface of the limiting pin contacts the slot. During the pushing process, the inclined surface is squeezed by the slot, causing the limiting pin to rotate around the rotating rod. When the limiting pin is aligned with the slot, under the action of the torsion spring, the limiting pin quickly engages in the slot, completing the closing of the protective cover body.

[0021] The switch panel with a protective cover structure provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0022] In this utility model, the main body of the protective cover is in a closed state, and the limiting pin in the buckling mechanism at its bottom is engaged in the slot at the bottom of the switch panel body to fix the main body of the protective cover. The sealing strip is embedded in the sealing groove, which effectively prevents water vapor and oil fumes from entering the interior of the switch panel body. When there is a large amount of water vapor and oil fumes, due to the sealing effect of the main body of the protective cover, the switch button and circuit socket are not corroded by water vapor and oil fumes.

[0023] 1. The high-strength material, sealing strips, and snap-fit ​​structure of the protective cover effectively prevent dust, moisture, oil, and external impacts from damaging the switch panel body, improving the protective performance of the switch panel body and ensuring its normal operation.

[0024] 2. Excellent protective performance reduces damage to the switch panel body caused by external factors, extends the service life of the switch panel body, reduces replacement costs, and greatly improves the quality of operation and efficiency compared with traditional devices.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and marked in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] The switch panel with a protective cover structure disclosed in this utility model is mainly used in the application of electrical equipment accessories.

[0034] Reference Figures 1-6 A switch panel with a protective cover structure includes a switch panel body 1 and a circuit box 2. The switch panel body 1 is connected to the circuit box 2 by two fastening screws 3. The panel also includes a protective cover body 4, which is made of transparent high-strength plastic and is connected to one side of the switch panel body 1 by a hinge. The bottom of the protective cover body 4 is provided with a buckling mechanism. The bottom of the switch panel body 1 has two slots 7. When the protective cover body 4 is closed, the buckling mechanism works with the slots 7. A sealing strip 9 is embedded in one side edge of the protective cover body 4. A sealing groove 8 is provided on one side edge of the switch panel body 1 to cooperate with the sealing strip 9 and seal the gap between the protective cover body 4 and the switch panel body 1.

[0035] In this embodiment: Normally, the protective cover body 4 is in the closed state. The limiting pin 12 in the buckling mechanism at its bottom is engaged in the slot 7 at the bottom of the switch panel body 1, fixing the protective cover body 4. The sealing strip 9 is embedded in the sealing groove 8, effectively preventing moisture and oil fumes from entering the interior of the switch panel body 1. When there is a large amount of moisture and oil fumes, due to the sealing effect of the protective cover body 4, the switch button 5 and the circuit socket 6 are not corroded by moisture and oil fumes, ensuring the normal use and service life of the switch panel. When it is necessary to operate the switch, the protective cover body 4 is opened, and the protective cover body 4 is closed after the operation is completed.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, the latching mechanism includes two fixed plates 10, a rotating rod 11, two limiting pins 12, a torsion spring 13, and a toggle plate 14. The two fixed plates 10 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the protective cover body 4. The rotating rod 11 is rotatably connected between the two fixed plates 10. The two limiting pins 12 are fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating rod 11 and cooperate with the slot 7. The torsion spring 13 is sleeved on the outside of the rotating rod 11 and located between the two limiting pins 12. The two ends of the torsion spring 13 are respectively attached to one side of the limiting pin 12. The middle end of the torsion spring 13 is in contact with the bottom of the protective cover body 4. The toggle plate 14 is fixedly connected between one side of the two limiting pins 12.

[0037] In this embodiment: when the protective cover body 4 is closed, the spring force of the torsion spring 13 causes the limiting pin 12 to be tightly locked into the slot 7. When it is necessary to open the protective cover body 4 to operate the switch, the toggle plate 14 is moved with a finger. The toggle plate 14 drives the rotating rod 11 to rotate, causing the limiting pin 12 to disengage from the slot 7, thereby opening the protective cover body 4. After the operation is completed, the toggle plate 14 is released. Under the action of the torsion spring 13, the limiting pin 12 is locked into the slot 7 again, closing the protective cover body 4 and effectively protecting the switch panel.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the switch panel body 1 is made of insulating and flame-retardant material, and integrates switch buttons 5 and circuit sockets 6 inside.

[0039] In this embodiment, the insulating and flame-retardant properties of the switch panel body 1 ensure that even if an electric spark comes into contact with the switch panel, it will not cause a fire. At the same time, the integrated switch button 5 and circuit socket 6 facilitate workers' operation of equipment and connection of electrical appliances.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, anti-slip protrusions 15 are fixedly connected at equal intervals on one side of the toggle plate 14.

[0041] In this embodiment: when it is necessary to open the operating switch of the protective cover body 4, the toggle plate 14 has anti-slip protrusions 15, so even if the hand is wet and slippery, the toggle plate 14 can be easily moved to make the limit pin 12 disengage from the slot 7 and open the protective cover body 4.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, a wiring hole 16 is provided at the bottom of the inside of the circuit box 2, and mounting positioning grooves 17 are provided at both ends of one side of the inside of the circuit box 2, and mounting expansion screws 18 are provided inside the mounting positioning grooves 17.

[0043] In this embodiment: The electrician attaches the circuit box 2 to the wall, aligns the mounting positioning groove 17 with the pre-drilled hole on the wall, and then screws the mounting expansion screw 18 into the hole. After tightening, the circuit box 2 is firmly fixed to the wall. The wires are connected through the wiring hole 16. Then, the switch panel body 1 is installed on the circuit box 2 with the fastening screw 3. Finally, the protective cover body 4 is installed, completing the installation of the entire switch panel body 1.

[0044] In a preferred embodiment, the transparent high-strength plastic material of the protective cover body 4 is PC polycarbonate.

[0045] In this embodiment, the protective cover body 4 is made of PC polycarbonate material, which has good strength and transparency. The PC polycarbonate material protective cover body 4 can resist water vapor erosion and maintain shape stability.

[0046] In a preferred embodiment, one side of the limiting pin 12 is provided with an inclined surface that cooperates with the slot 7.

[0047] In this embodiment: the inclined surface of the limiting pin 12 contacts the slot 7. During the pushing process, the inclined surface is squeezed by the slot 7, causing the limiting pin 12 to rotate around the rotating rod 11. When the limiting pin 12 is aligned with the slot 7, under the action of the torsion spring 13, the limiting pin 12 quickly engages in the slot 7, completing the closing of the protective cover body 4.

[0048] Working principle: When in use, first fix the circuit box 2 to the wall by installing expansion screws 18, and connect the wire to the circuit box 2 through the wiring hole 16 and connect it to the switch panel body 1.

[0049] When operation is required, the toggle plate 14 is moved to rotate the rotating rod 11, so that the limit pin 12 overcomes the elastic force of the torsion spring 13 and disengages from the slot 7, thereby opening the protective cover body 4.

[0050] The protective cover body 4 is flipped up via a movable hinge to expose the switch button 5 and circuit socket 6 for user operation;

[0051] When the protective cover body 4 is closed, the inclined surface of the limit pin 12 contacts the edge of the slot 7 and automatically compresses the torsion spring 13 until it is fully engaged in the slot 7 to complete the locking.

[0052] The sealing strip 9 and the sealing groove 8 fit tightly together to form a dustproof and waterproof seal;

[0053] The protective cover body 4 is made of transparent PC polycarbonate material, which can protect the switch panel body 1 from external damage without affecting the observation of the switch status;

[0054] The entire device achieves a safe and reliable switching operation environment through the combination of the insulating and flame-retardant switch panel body 1 and the protective structure.

[0055] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
