[0024] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-4 The present invention will be further described below.
[0025] To address the problems existing in the background technology, this application proposes the following technical solution: a photovoltaic junction box with a protective structure.
[0026] The specific technical solution includes a housing 1 and an external wiring 3. The housing 1 contains a component 2. One end of the external wiring 3 has a connector 12 that plugs into the interior of the housing 1, and the connector 12 is electrically connected to the component 2. A protective assembly 4 is provided on the outer wall of the housing 1. The protective assembly 4 includes a protective box 41, a knob 42, and a slot 46. The protective box 41 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the housing 1. The connector 12 penetrates the interior of the protective box 41. The knob 42 is rotatably connected to one side of the outer wall of the protective box 41 via a bearing. The upper part of the rotating knob 42 is provided with a locking block 43 located inside the protective box 41. The locking groove 46 is opened on the outer wall of the connector 12, and the locking block 43 is locked inside the locking groove 46. The inner wall of the protective box 41 is provided with an inner post 44, and the outer wall of the inner post 44 is provided with a torsion spring 45 connected to the locking block 43. The torsion spring 45 is located between the inner post 44 and the locking block 43, which can protect the connector 12 of the external wiring 3 and prevent the connector 12 from separating from the component 2 when the external wiring 3 is accidentally pulled.
[0027] In specific implementations, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the top of the box 1 is covered with an inspection cover 5, and assembly components 6 are provided on the outer walls of both sides of the box 1. The assembly components 6 include a fixed box 61, an assembly block 62 and a moving block 63. The fixed box 61 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the box 1, and the assembly block 62 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the inspection cover 5. The assembly components 6 are used to assemble and fix the box 1 and the inspection cover 5.
[0028] Furthermore, the movable block 63 is slidably connected inside the fixed box 61, and a fixed block 64 is integrally connected to the outer wall of one side of the movable block 63. The fixed block 64 is compatible with the specifications of the assembly block 62, and the fixed block 64 can be inserted into the assembly block 62 to realize the assembly of the box 1 and the inspection cover 5.
[0029] Furthermore, a spring 65 connected to the movable block 63 is provided on the inner wall of the fixed box 61. A push block 66 is slidably connected inside the fixed box 61. When the movable block 63 is not squeezed by the push block 66, the elastic force of the spring 65 can push the movable block 63 to move.
[0030] Furthermore, a pull plate 67 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the push block 66, located outside the fixed box 61. A second spring 68 connected to the pull plate 67 is provided on the inner wall of the fixed box 61. The elastic force of the second spring 68 is greater than that of the first spring 65. When the pull plate 67 is released, the elastic force of the second spring 68 can push the push block 66 to move and squeeze the moving block 63, causing the moving block 63 to move.
[0031] In specific implementations, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a sealing gasket 7 is provided on the outer wall of the bottom of the inspection cover 5, and a sealing groove 8 is provided on the top of the box body 1. The specifications of the sealing gasket 7 and the sealing groove 8 are compatible, and the sealing gasket 7 can be snapped into the sealing groove 8, thereby ensuring the sealing between the box body 1 and the inspection cover 5.
[0032] In specific implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, a heat-conducting plate 9 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the box body 1, and a heat insulation pad 10 is provided between the outer wall of the heat-conducting plate 9 and the inner wall of the box body 1. Several heat sinks 11 located outside the box body 1 are provided on the outer wall of one side of the heat-conducting plate 9. The heat-conducting plate 9 is a metal plate with thermal conductivity, which can absorb heat and conduct it to the heat sinks 11. The heat sinks 11 dissipate the heat to the outside of the box body 1, thereby realizing heat dissipation for the component 2.
[0033] To ensure that those skilled in the art can fully understand the technical solution, this application provides the following overall overview:
[0034] In use, rotating the knob 42 causes the locking block 43 to rotate, ensuring that the locking block 43 does not obstruct the passage of the protective box 41. At this time, the torsion spring 45 stores force, allowing the connector 12 of the external wiring 3 to pass through the protective box 41 and connect to the component 2. After releasing the knob 42, the torsion force of the torsion spring 45 can drive the locking block 43 to rotate, allowing the locking block 43 to engage inside the slot 46, thus fixing and protecting the connector 12. This prevents the connector 12 from separating from the component 2 if the external wiring 3 is accidentally pulled. The component 2 generates heat during operation, and the heat-conducting plate 9... The heat is absorbed and conducted to the heat sink 11, which dissipates the heat to the outside of the housing 1, thus heats up the component 2 and prevents it from burning out. When the component 2 is damaged and needs to be repaired, the pull plate 67 is pulled to move the push block 66. At this time, the moving block 63 is not subjected to the squeezing force of the push block 66. The elastic force of the spring 65 pushes the moving block 63 to move. The moving block 63 moves the fixing block 64, causing the fixing block 64 to move out of the assembly block 62. The inspection cover 5 is pulled upward to separate the inspection cover 5 from the housing 1, making it easier to repair the component 2.
