[0022] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0023] This embodiment discloses a DC power supply cabinet, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the system includes a base 1, with a cabinet mounted on top of the base 1. The cabinet includes side panels 2 and a front panel 3, with a top panel 4 at the top of the cabinet. A mounting protrusion A31 is provided on the lower surface of the front panel 3. The base 1 has a slot A11 corresponding to the mounting protrusion A31. The mounting protrusion A31 on the lower surface of the front panel 3 engages with the slot A11 of the base 1 to achieve a vertical insertion and fixation between the front panel 3 and the base 1. A support protrusion B21 extends laterally from the lower end face of the side panel 2. The base 1 has a support groove B12 corresponding to the support protrusion B21. The support protrusion B21 at the lower end of the side panel 2 engages with the support groove B12 of the base 1, allowing the support protrusion B21 to support the base 1. Casters 211 are located below the support protrusion B21. The casters 211 allow the side panel 2 to be moved with minimal force by a single person during cabinet assembly, saving labor and time costs. Both sides of the main panel 3 are provided with mounting grooves C32 that correspond to the shape of the side panels 2, enabling lateral insertion between the side panels 2 and the main panel 3. The lower surface of the top panel 4 is provided with a mounting groove D41, the shape of which corresponds to the upper edge of the main panel 3 and the upper edge of the side panels 2, enabling quick installation of the top panel 4. One of the main panels 3 is movably connected to a cabinet door 7 via a hinge. Through the interlocking multi-point insertion and cooperation of the main panel 3, side panels 2, and top panel 4, the overall rigidity and vibration resistance of the cabinet are ensured, preventing components from loosening.
[0024] To further improve the design, a snap-fit structure 5 is provided within the mounting groove C32. This snap-fit structure 5 provides mechanical locking, preventing accidental displacement of the side panel 2 under vibration or external force, thus enhancing the overall safety of the cabinet. The edge of the side panel 2 is provided with a sliding groove 24 that adapts to the snap-fit structure 5. The snap-fit structure 5 can slide within the sliding groove 24, allowing the side panel 2 to be easily inserted or removed through sliding motion, preventing jamming.
[0025] Further improvements include a locking protrusion E22 near the supporting protrusion B21 on the side plate 2. The locking protrusion E22 and the supporting protrusion B21 form a mounting groove E23, the shape of which is adapted to the base 1. The locking protrusion E22 is equipped with a locking structure 5, and the base 1 has an opening A13 adapted to the locking structure 5. The locking protrusion E22 restricts the movement of the base 1 from both vertical and horizontal directions, preventing the base 1 from tilting upwards and enhancing its stability. The locking structure 5 on the locking protrusion E22 securely fixes the base 1, ensuring stable and reliable assembly. The base 1 has an opening A13 adapted to the locking structure 5. Furthermore, placing the locking structure 5 on the locking protrusion E22 means that the locking structure 5 is located inside the cabinet, making it less susceptible to external environmental interference or external forces that could cause it to loosen, further improving stability.
[0026] To further improve the design, the top plate 4 is provided with a snap-fit structure 5 near the front plate 3, and the front plate 3 is provided with an opening B33 that corresponds to the snap-fit structure 5. During assembly, the snap-fit structure 5 and the opening B33 cooperate to effectively limit the relative displacement between the front plate 3 and the top plate 4, so that the front plate 3 and the top plate 4 can obtain a good and stable fit and are not easy to loosen.
[0027] like Figures 5 to 6 As shown, the snap-fit structure 5 includes a mounting cavity 51, a pin 52 disposed within the mounting cavity 51, and a spring 53 sleeved on the pin 52. A retaining ring 54 is also provided at the lower end of the mounting cavity 51 to block the spring 53. The retaining ring 54 prevents the spring 53 from falling out from the lower end, allowing the pin 52 to move axially within the mounting cavity 51. The spring 53 provides continuous elastic force, and the retaining ring 54, under the elastic force of the spring 53, constantly attempts to push the pin 52 outward. During installation, the pin 52 is pushed into the mounting cavity 51 by external force; once the external force disappears, the spring 53 automatically springs the pin 52 back to its original or set extended position. This ensures that the structure automatically remains in the extended state when not in operation and allows for easy switching between the extended and retracted states without tools. During assembly, there is no need to manually fix the pin 52; during disassembly, simply pulling out the pin 52 releases the lock, improving operational efficiency.
[0028] To further improve the design, the end of the pin 52 is provided with a guide slope 521; the head of the pin 52 is provided with a limiting protrusion 522. The limiting protrusion 522 is used to restrict the rotation of the pin 52, so that the guide slope 521 can face the direction in which other components are installed. During installation, the component entering will contact the guide slope 521, and under the action of the slope, it can easily push the pin 52 to retract, thereby reducing assembly resistance and making installation easier.
[0029] Further improvements include a plurality of liftable threaded fixing feet 6 on the lower surface of the base 1. The cabinet is installed within the support surface formed by the threaded fixing feet 6, allowing the threaded fixing feet 6 to provide good support for the cabinet, making the appliance stable and reliable. During installation, the fixing feet 6 are used to raise the base 1 to a suitable height for convenient installation. In use, the fixing feet 6 can press firmly against the ground, providing rigid support and a good fixing effect to prevent the cabinet from sliding. Combined with casters 211, users can easily switch between mobile and fixed states, enhancing the versatility of the cabinet. In addition, the fixing feet 6 can extend to different degrees, allowing the cabinet to remain level even on inclined or irregular ground.
[0030] To further improve the design, an installation ramp 121 is provided at the opening of the support groove B12. The installation ramp 121 is used to guide the support protrusion B21 during the installation of the side plate 2, reducing the difficulty of alignment and allowing the support protrusion B21 to enter the support groove B12 quickly and smoothly, thus shortening the installation time.
[0031] Working principle of this utility model
[0032] During handling, such as Figure 7 As shown, the main plate 3 can be secured to the side plate via the locking protrusion E, allowing workers to easily and quickly move both the main plate 3 and the side plate 2 simultaneously. During assembly, the fixing feet 6 on the lower end face of the base 1 can be extended to a height compatible with the support protrusion B21. The side plate 2, equipped with the support protrusion B21 and casters 211, can be easily pushed to both sides of the base 1, allowing the support protrusion B21 to engage with the support groove B12. As the support protrusion B21 is pushed in, the base 1 engages with the mounting groove E23 on the side plate 2. During this process, the base 1 pushes open the pin 52 in the locking structure 5, and after it is in place, the pin 52 springs back under the action of the spring 53, locking the base 1 in the mounting groove E23. Next, the mounting protrusion A31 on the lower surface of the main plate 3 is inserted into the slot A11 of the base 1. At this time, the mounting grooves C32 on both sides of the main plate 3 will engage with the edges of the side plate 2. The snap-fit structure 5 inside the mounting slot C32 can snap and lock with the sliding groove 24 on the edge of the side plate 2. Finally, align the mounting slot D41 of the top plate 4 with the upper edges of the front plate 3 and the side plate 2 from the top and snap it off to complete the assembly.
[0033] During disassembly, simply pull out the pin 52 of the relevant locking structure 5 to release the lock of the corresponding part, thus making it easy and convenient to disassemble the cabinet.
[0034] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the design concept of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
