Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of energy storage device technology, and more particularly to a waterproof outdoor energy storage device. Background Technology

[0002] Energy storage devices are devices that can convert electrical energy into other forms of energy for storage and convert it back into electrical energy when needed. They can achieve electrical energy storage through various technologies, such as battery storage, supercapacitor storage, and mechanical storage. These technologies enable energy storage devices to play a vital role in power systems, especially in renewable energy fields such as solar and wind power generation.

[0003] Energy storage devices typically have several interfaces on their front side. By connecting the power cord to the corresponding interface, power can be supplied to electrical devices through the energy storage device. When energy storage devices are used outdoors, rain can easily cause water to get onto the interfaces or enter the device's casing, leading to short circuits and potentially damaging the device, resulting in unnecessary losses.

The front of the chassis has several interfaces, and a waterproof cover is provided on the chassis. The waterproof cover includes an outer frame and a transparent partition. One end of the outer frame has a window that matches the transparent partition, and the transparent partition is adhered to the window. The front of the chassis has a mounting frame that matches the outer frame. The outer frame is detachably connected to the inside of the mounting frame. A wiring window corresponding to the interface is provided through the transparent partition. A cover plate for closing the wiring window is hinged to the inside of the transparent partition by a torsion spring. A U-shaped notch is provided on the cover plate. Multiple elastic rubber strips are closely arranged on the edge of the U-shaped notch. The multiple elastic rubber strips are spliced ​​to form the shape of the U-shaped notch and close the U-shaped notch.

[0006] Preferably, the upper and lower outer side walls of the outer frame are provided with clearance grooves, and spring pieces are connected to the side walls of the clearance grooves. The outer surface of the spring pieces is provided with inverted buckles, and there is a pressing gap between the spring pieces and the clearance grooves. The wall surface of the mounting frame is provided with a fastening groove corresponding to the inverted buckles, and the inverted buckles are fastened to the fastening grooves.

[0007] Preferably, the transparent partition is made of acrylic.

[0008] Preferably, the elastic strip is made of silicone.

[0009] Preferably, an annular elastic sealing gasket is adhered to one end face of the outer frame.

[0010] Preferably, the width of the elastic strip is 2mm.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model provides a waterproof outdoor energy storage device. When it is necessary to connect the power cord plug to a certain interface of the chassis, hold the plug to open the cover plate on the front side of the corresponding interface and connect it to the interface. Then, the fingers are removed from the outside of the waterproof cover through the wiring window, and the power cord will pass through the U-shaped notch. The elastic rubber strips are adapted to bend to avoid the power cord. The power cord is surrounded by several elastic rubber strips, which prevents rainwater from entering the inside of the waterproof cover through the U-shaped notch when it rains, thus achieving an effective waterproof effect and preventing rainwater from getting on the interface, thereby improving the safety of the energy storage device.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure.

[0018] Based on the embodiments described in this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0019] refer to Figure 1-4 .

[0020] This utility model provides a waterproof outdoor energy storage device, including a chassis 1. The front of the chassis 1 is provided with several interfaces 2. A waterproof cover 3 is provided on the chassis 1. The waterproof cover 3 includes an outer frame 30 and a transparent partition 31. One end face of the outer frame 30 is provided with a window 300 that matches the transparent partition 31. The transparent partition 31 is glued to the window 300. The front of the chassis 1 is provided with a mounting frame 10 that matches the outer frame 30. The outer frame 30 is detachably connected to the inner side of the mounting frame 10. A wiring window 310 corresponding to the interface 2 is provided through the transparent partition 31. A cover plate 32 for closing the wiring window 310 is hinged to the inner side of the transparent partition 31 by a torsion spring. A U-shaped notch 320 is provided on the cover plate 32. Multiple elastic rubber strips 321 are closely arranged on the edge of the U-shaped notch 320. The multiple elastic rubber strips 321 are spliced ​​to form the shape of the U-shaped notch 320 and close the U-shaped notch 320.

[0021] Its working principle is as follows: when the power cord plug needs to be connected to a certain interface 2 of the chassis 1, the plug is held to open the cover 32 on the front side of the corresponding interface 2 and connected to the interface 2. Then, the finger is removed from the outside of the waterproof cover 3 through the wiring window 310, and the power cord will pass through the U-shaped notch 320. The elastic rubber strip 321 is adapted to bend to avoid the power cord. The power cord is surrounded by several elastic rubber strips 321. The multiple elastic rubber strips 321 are distributed like a brush along the edge of the U-shaped notch 320. The elastic rubber strips 321 can be glued to the U-shaped notch 320 with hot melt adhesive to prevent rainwater from entering the interior of the waterproof cover 3 through the U-shaped notch 320 when it rains, thus achieving an effective waterproof effect and preventing rainwater from getting on the interface 2, thereby improving the safety of the energy storage device.

[0022] Based on the above embodiments, both the upper and lower outer side walls of the outer frame 30 are provided with clearance grooves 301. Spring tabs 302 are connected to the side walls of the clearance grooves 301. An undercut 302a is provided on the outer surface of the spring tab 302.

A fastening groove 100, corresponding to the undercut 302a, is provided through the wall surface of the mounting frame 10. The undercut 302a fastens onto the fastening groove 100. When the waterproof cover 3 is installed onto the mounting frame 10, the outer frame 30 is inserted into the mounting frame 10 until the undercut 302a fastens onto the fastening groove 100, thus locking it in place. When it is necessary to remove the waterproof cover 3 from the mounting frame 10, the spring tabs 302 on both sides are pressed into the clearance grooves 301. After the undercut 302a disengages from the fastening groove 100, the waterproof cover 3 can be removed from the mounting frame 10.

[0023] Based on the above embodiments, the transparent partition 31 is made of acrylic, which has good structural strength and durability.

[0024] Based on the above embodiments, the elastic strip 321 is made of silicone, which has good elasticity and wear resistance, and a long service life.

[0025] Based on the above embodiments, an annular elastic sealing gasket 304 is adhered to one end face of the outer frame 30, which can improve the sealing between the outer frame 30 and the front of the chassis 1.

[0026] Based on the above embodiments, the width of the elastic strip 321 is 2mm. The elastic strip 321 has better flexibility and can tightly wrap the power cord to prevent rainwater from entering the interior of the waterproof cover 3 through the U-shaped notch 320.

[0027] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.
