Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of control box technology, and more specifically, to an outdoor waterproof control box with integrated temperature and humidity monitoring. Background Technology
[0002] Outdoor control boxes are widely used in power, communication, and transportation industries, and their internal electronic equipment is extremely sensitive to temperature and humidity. Traditional control boxes mainly achieve waterproofing through physical sealing, but long-term sealing leads to heat buildup inside, accelerating component aging; adding ventilation structures, however, makes it difficult to balance waterproofing requirements. Existing technologies, such as some solutions using fixed ventilation holes or manually adjustable baffles, cannot respond to environmental changes in real time.
[0003] The contradiction between heat dissipation and waterproofing: fixed ventilation structures are prone to water ingress in rainy weather, while fully sealed enclosures rely on cooling fans, which have high energy consumption and a high failure rate;
[0004] Lack of environmental monitoring capabilities: The temperature and humidity difference between the inside and outside of the chamber may cause condensation, but existing equipment rarely integrates dual environmental sensors, making it impossible to provide early warning of local temperature and humidity imbalances.
[0005] The adjustment mechanism is lagging: the manual or timed opening and closing of the baffle is difficult to match dynamic environmental changes, such as the inability to quickly close the ventilation opening when there is a sudden rainstorm.
[0006] A few improved solutions attempt to drive the ventilation cover with a temperature-controlled motor, but these only respond to the internal temperature, ignoring the correlation between external humidity and the internal-external temperature difference. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a control box structure that can simultaneously monitor the internal and external environment, intelligently adjust the ventilation status, and maintain waterproofness. Utility Model Content
[0007] The problem this invention solves is: how to simultaneously monitor the internal and external environment and intelligently adjust the ventilation status.
[0008] To address the above problems, this utility model provides an outdoor waterproof control box with integrated temperature and humidity monitoring, comprising:
[0009] Control box body;
[0010] The first temperature sensor and the first humidity sensor are installed on the outer casing of the main body of the control box to monitor the temperature and humidity of the external environment;
[0011] The second temperature sensor and the second humidity sensor are installed inside the main body of the control box to monitor the internal temperature and humidity.
[0012] The rotatable baffle assembly consists of several rotatable baffles that are rotatably connected to both sides of the control box body via a rotating shaft, and a sealing strip is provided at the connection between adjacent baffles;
[0013] A synchronous transmission device includes a synchronous pulley and a synchronous belt connecting the synchronous pulley, with each rotating shaft fixedly connected to the shaft center of the synchronous pulley;
[0014] The drive motor is fixed to the bottom of the control box body and drives the synchronous wheel to rotate in conjunction with the opening and closing of all rotatable baffles.
[0015] In an optional embodiment, the first temperature sensor and the first humidity sensor are symmetrically arranged with the second temperature sensor and the second humidity sensor at corresponding positions inside and outside the box.
[0016] In an optional embodiment, the rotatable baffles form a sealing baffle in the side-by-side closed state, and when opening and closing, a synchronous transmission device keeps all the baffles rotating synchronously to a parallel state to increase the ventilation space.
[0017] In an optional embodiment, the synchronous pulleys of the synchronous transmission device achieve multi-axis linkage through a synchronous belt, and the drive motor is directly connected to any of the synchronous pulleys.
[0018] In an optional embodiment, the bottom of the control box body is provided with a removable baffle that covers the drive motor and provides protection.
[0019] In an optional embodiment, a control module is also included, which dynamically adjusts the drive motor to control the opening and closing angle of the rotatable baffle based on the monitoring data of the first temperature sensor, the first humidity sensor, the second temperature sensor, and the second humidity sensor.
[0020] Compared with existing technologies, the outdoor waterproof control box with integrated temperature and humidity monitoring of this utility model has the following advantages:
[0021] In this design, multiple rotatable baffles are hinged to both sides of the enclosure via pivots, with sealing strips embedded at the seams. Each pivot is connected to a synchronous pulley of a synchronous transmission device, and a synchronous belt links all the pulleys. A drive motor is fixed to the bottom of the enclosure, and its output shaft drives any one of the synchronous pulleys. Sensors monitor the temperature and humidity data inside and outside the enclosure in real time, the control module analyzes the data, and the drive motor drives all the baffles to rotate synchronously via the synchronous belt, thereby adjusting the ventilation opening and closing degree and achieving a dynamic balance between waterproofing and heat dissipation.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides an outdoor waterproof control box with integrated temperature and humidity monitoring, comprising:
[0033] Control box body 100;
[0034] The first temperature sensor 310 and the first humidity sensor 410 are installed on the outer casing of the control box body 100 and are used to monitor the temperature and humidity of the external environment.
[0035] The second temperature sensor 320 and the second humidity sensor 420 are installed inside the control box body 100 and are used to monitor the internal temperature and humidity.
[0036] The rotatable baffle assembly consists of several rotatable baffles 240 that are rotatably connected to both sides of the control box body 100 via a rotating shaft 230, and a sealing strip 250 is provided at the connection between adjacent baffles;
[0037] Synchronous transmission device 220 includes a synchronous pulley and a synchronous belt connecting the synchronous pulley, and each rotating shaft 230 is fixedly connected to the shaft of the synchronous pulley;
[0038] The drive motor 210 is fixed to the bottom of the control box body 100 and drives the synchronous wheel to rotate in conjunction with the opening and closing of all rotatable baffles 240.
[0039] A first temperature sensor 310 and a first humidity sensor 410 are installed on the outer surface of the control box body 100, and a second temperature sensor 320 and a second humidity sensor 420 are installed inside.
[0040] Multiple rotatable baffles 240 are hinged to both sides of the housing via rotating shafts 230, and sealing strips 250 are embedded at the joints; each rotating shaft 230 is connected to the synchronous pulley of the synchronous transmission device 220, and the synchronous belt links all the synchronous pulleys; the drive motor 210 is fixed to the bottom of the housing, and the output shaft drives any one of the synchronous pulleys.
[0041] The sensor monitors the temperature and humidity data inside and outside the box in real time, analyzes the data through the control module, and drives all the baffles to rotate synchronously through the synchronous belt via the drive motor 210, thereby adjusting the ventilation opening and closing degree and achieving dynamic balance between waterproofing and heat dissipation.
[0042] The first temperature sensor 310 and the first humidity sensor 410 are symmetrically arranged with the second temperature sensor 320 and the second humidity sensor 420 at corresponding positions inside and outside the box.
[0043] By collecting data at symmetrical locations, calculating the temperature and humidity gradients inside and outside the same location (such as the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the top of the chamber), and accurately identifying local condensation risk points, data deviations caused by differences in sensor locations can be eliminated.
[0044] The rotatable baffles 240 form a sealed baffle when closed side by side. When opening and closing, the synchronous transmission device 220 keeps all the baffles rotating synchronously to a parallel state to increase the ventilation space.
[0045] Baffle closure: All baffles 240 rotate to a side-by-side position, and the sealing strip 250 is pressed to form a continuous sealing surface;
[0046] The baffles open: They rotate synchronously until they are parallel to each other, forming a strip-shaped ventilation gap.
[0047] By driving the motor 210 to rotate forward / reverse, the synchronous belt traction baffle rotates to 0° to close or 90° to open at its maximum.
[0048] The synchronous pulley of the synchronous transmission device 220 achieves multi-axis linkage through the synchronous belt, and the drive motor 210 is directly connected to any of the synchronous pulleys.
[0049] Synchronous pulleys are fixed to the ends of each rotating shaft 230. The synchronous belt engages all synchronous pulleys and is directly connected to the first synchronous pulley via the drive motor 210, so that all baffles 240 rotate synchronously.
[0050] The bottom of the control box body 100 is provided with a removable baffle 110, which covers the drive motor 210 and provides protection.
[0051] A removable baffle 110 is installed on the outside of the drive motor 210 at the bottom of the box. It is fixed by clips or screws. The baffle 110 isolates rainwater splash and mud and sand accumulation. After removal, the motor is directly exposed for easy maintenance.
[0052] It also includes a control module that dynamically adjusts the drive motor 210 to control the opening and closing angle of the rotatable baffle 240 based on the monitoring data of the first temperature sensor 310, the first humidity sensor 410, the second temperature sensor 320, and the second humidity sensor 420.
[0053] The control module receives sensor data and compares it with preset thresholds such as internal temperature >50℃ or external humidity >80%, and outputs PWM signals to adjust the motor speed and direction, thereby achieving intelligent adjustment.
[0054] Although the present invention has been disclosed above, its protection scope is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and all such changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
