Detailed Implementation

[0012] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0013] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0014] This utility model provides the following technical solution: As attached Figure 1-7As shown, this utility model discloses a novel junction box structure for use in a track socket, including a junction box body 2 mounted on a track socket 1. The junction box body 2 has a flip-up cover 3. A rotational clearance fit structure is provided between the cover 3 and the junction box body 2. The rotational clearance fit structure includes a rotating end 4 mounted on the cover 3 or the junction box body 2, and a corresponding rotating hole 5. An adjustment gap 6 is formed between the rotating end 4 and the wall of the rotating hole 5. The rotating end 4 extends into the rotating hole 5 and engages with the wall of the rotating hole 5 through the clearance fit. Specifically, in this design, by setting the rotational end of the cover 3 and the inner wall of the rotating hole 5 through a clearance fit, the cover 3 maintains a certain degree of flexibility during flipping, allowing it to open more fully when open, facilitating user access to the interior of the junction box. Furthermore, the clearance fit design effectively prevents the cover 3 from jamming or being damaged due to friction after prolonged use, thus improving the service life of the junction box.

[0015] Furthermore, the rotating hole 5 is arranged in a horizontal strip-like structure, and the rotating end 4 is arranged in a cylindrical shape. The outer diameter of the rotating end 4 is smaller than the length of the rotating hole 5. The rotating end 4 extends into the rotating hole 5 and is rotatably connected to the junction box body 2. The rotating end 4 can move within the rotating hole 5 along its length. Specifically, in this embodiment, the cylindrical design of the rotating end 4 cooperates with the horizontal strip-like structure of the rotating hole 5, allowing the cover 3 to not only rotate flexibly in the flipping direction but also to be finely adjusted in the length direction of the rotating hole 5. This design increases the stability and adaptability of the cover 3 after it is opened. Even when faced with cables of different sizes or shapes, users can ensure that the cover 3 fits tightly against the junction box body 2 by finely adjusting the position of the cover 3. Meanwhile, the ability of the rotating end 4 to move within the rotating hole 5 provides greater convenience for users during installation or maintenance, making the operation more flexible and efficient. When the cover 3 is opened, since the rotating hole 5 is set in a strip-shaped structure, there will be no interference with the junction box. Furthermore, after the cover 3 is closed, the gap between the cover and the junction box is uniform and small, ensuring the aesthetics and sealing of the junction box.

[0016] A positioning connection structure is provided between the cover 3 and the junction box body 2. The cover 3 presses the junction box body 2 tightly through the positioning connection structure. The positioning connection structure is a connecting end 11 formed on the inner wall of the junction box body 2 or the cover 3. The connecting end 11 has a connecting hole 12, and the inner wall of the junction box body 2 or the cover 3 has a positioning hole 13 corresponding to the connecting hole on the connecting end 11. A screw (not shown) is provided between the connecting hole 12 and the positioning hole 13. The screw (not shown) extends into the connecting hole 11 and the positioning hole 13 to press the cover 3 tightly onto the junction box body 2. Specifically, in this embodiment, the connecting end 11 can be a protrusion on the cover 3 or a protrusion on the inner wall of the junction box body 2. The connecting hole 12 and the positioning hole 13 are respectively formed on the connecting end 11 and the corresponding inner wall of the junction box body 2 or the cover 3. The connecting hole 12 and the positioning hole 13 are fixedly connected by screws to achieve a tight fit and stable connection between the cover 3 and the junction box body 2. This positioning connection structure design not only improves the overall stability of the junction box but also ensures that the cover 3 remains stable when opening or closing, avoiding damage or safety hazards caused by shaking or misalignment. At the same time, the screw connection method facilitates disassembly or maintenance when needed, enhancing the practicality and convenience of the junction box.

[0017] Furthermore, the cover 3 is provided with a detachable cover cable inlet structure 20, and the junction box is provided with detachable junction box cable inlet structures 21 on both sides. Specifically, in this embodiment, both the cover cable inlet structure 20 and the junction box cable inlet structure are detachable sheet-like structures (knock-out hole structures). The cover 3 and the junction box have corresponding cable inlets. The sheet-like cover cable inlet structure 20 and the junction box cable inlet structure are set in the corresponding cable inlets. When it is necessary to run the cable through the cable inlet, it is only necessary to remove the corresponding cover cable inlet structure 20 or the junction box cable inlet structure, without having to disassemble the entire cover 3 or the junction box, which provides great convenience to the user.

[0018] Furthermore, a hook groove 22 is formed on the inner wall of the junction box body 1 on the side away from the track socket 2, and a corresponding hook end 23 protrudes from the cover 3 to form the hook groove 22. Specifically, in this embodiment, by setting the cooperation structure between the hook groove 22 and the hook end 23, the cover 3 can be prevented from accidentally opening due to the arching of the wire when the junction box body 1 is connected, thus enhancing the safety and stability of the junction box during use.

[0019] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
