[0013] Through the personnel in this field, the components in this case are connected in sequence. For the specific connection and operation sequence, reference should be made to the following working principle. The detailed connection means are well-known technologies in this field. The following mainly introduces the working principle and process.
[0014] As Figure 1-5 shown, an expandable secondary equipment screen cabinet includes a cabinet body 1 and a top cabinet 30. The top cabinet 30 can be installed on the top outside of the cabinet body 1. The cabinet body 1 has an openable cabinet door, which is not shown in the figure.
[0015] The top surface of the cabinet body 1 is provided with two pairs of opposite plug boards 17; there is a gap between the plug boards 17.
[0016] The bottom of the top cabinet 30 is open and includes a top panel 11. A first assembly panel 12, a second assembly panel 13, a third assembly panel 14, and a fourth assembly panel 15 arranged clockwise form a ring of side walls for the top cabinet 30. A centrally located top cabinet door 121 is provided on the first assembly panel 12. The top panel 11, the first assembly panel 12, the second assembly panel 13, the third assembly panel 14, and the fourth assembly panel 15 constitute the five surfaces of the top cabinet.
[0017] The first assembly plate 12, the second assembly plate 13, the third assembly plate 14 and the fourth assembly plate 15 are respectively equipped with dovetail blocks 19 and dovetail grooves 20, so that the first assembly plate 12, the second assembly plate 13, the third assembly plate 14 and the fourth assembly plate 15 are sequentially spliced into a rectangular frame.
[0018] The bottom surfaces of the first assembly plate 12, the second assembly plate 13, the third assembly plate 14, and the fourth assembly plate 15 are respectively provided with slots 16 into which insert plates 17 can be inserted; the first assembly plate 12, the second assembly plate 13, the third assembly plate 14, and the fourth assembly plate can be into which insert plates 17 can be inserted.
[0019] The top plate 11 has a ring of protruding parts fixed on the inner wall surface of the first assembly plate 12, the second assembly plate 13, the third assembly plate 14 and the fourth assembly plate 15; the protruding parts fit into the inner wall surface of the assembled first assembly plate 12, the second assembly plate 13, the third assembly plate 14 and the fourth assembly plate 15.
[0020] Elastic structures are respectively installed on the four outer surfaces of the protruding portion and the sides facing the first assembly plate 12, the second assembly plate 13, the third assembly plate 14 and the fourth assembly plate 15. The elastic structures include grooves 23, multiple springs 24 and spheres 25. The grooves 23 are formed in the protruding portion of the top plate 11 and are located on a ring of sidewalls facing the top cabinet 30. One end of the spring 24 is fixed and arrayed in the groove 23. The spheres 25 are installed at the end of the spring 24 and the other end. The length direction of the groove 23 is along the length direction of the insert plate. The springs 24 are arrayed along the length direction of the groove. The spheres 25 are fixed at the end of the spring 24.
[0021] The inner side and inner wall of the first assembly plate 12, the second assembly plate 13, the third assembly plate 14 and the fourth assembly plate 15 are respectively provided with arc-shaped grooves 26 for the ball 25 to be inserted.
[0022] Insert the first assembled board, the second assembled board, the third assembled board, and the fourth assembled board in a clockwise direction so that the燕尾 blocks are snapped into the燕尾 grooves. The height of the燕尾 blocks 19 and the燕尾 grooves 20 is the same as the height of the first assembled board 12. Make the first assembled board, the second assembled board, the third assembled board, and the fourth assembled board form a framework. Fit the framework to the raised part of the top plate, place the framework on the top plate, and by the elasticity of the spring in the groove, make the ball snap into the arc-shaped groove. The spring 24 is preferably a spring with an elastic coefficient that satisfies that the top plate 11 and the framework are not easily separated. Fasten the framework on the plug board, insert the plug board into the slot, and the gap distance between the plug board 17 and the slot 16 is 0.1 - 0.2 mm. The cross-sectional dimensions of the outer surface of the framework and the outer surface of the cabinet body are the same, and assemble the framework on the cabinet body. Complete the assembly of the framework and the bottom plate to expand the longitudinal space of the cabinet body and facilitate adding equipment for use. In addition, the top plate, the first assembled board 12, the second assembled board 13, the third assembled board 14, and the fourth assembled board 15 are convenient for storage and carrying when not in need of expansion, and can also be assembled separately to form an independent open container for use.
[0023] In a preferred embodiment, a horizontal board 2 is fixed in the middle inside the cabinet body 1, a vertical board 3 is fixed on the horizontal board 2, one end of a short board 4 is vertically fixed in the middle of the vertical board 3, and the other end of the short board 4 extends and is fixed on the cabinet body 1. The horizontal board 2, the vertical board 3, and the short board 4 form a "上" character shape, dividing the internal space of the cabinet body 1 into functionally independent standardized modules (such as a power module, a protection control module, a communication module, an interface module, etc.).
[0024] The horizontal board 2 divides the cabinet body into an upper space and a lower space; the vertical board 3 divides the upper space of the cabinet body into a left space and a right space, and the short board 4 further divides the right space into an upper space and a lower space.
[0025] The advantage of such an arrangement is that the cabinet body has a relatively long lower space on the left and right below the horizontal board 2, where items with a large horizontal dimension can be placed, a relatively high left space where items with a large vertical dimension can be placed, and two small spaces on the right side of the vertical board, taking into account different-sized spaces of large, small, high, low, and horizontal.
[0026] Further preferably, through holes are respectively opened on both sides of the horizontal board 2 separated by the vertical board 3, on both vertical sides of the vertical board 3, and on one side of the short board 4. A wire routing structure 5 is fixed on the inner wall of the through hole. The wire routing structure 5 includes a wire board 7, a rubber block 9, and a wire passing hole 10.
[0027] The outer surface of each wire board 7 is fitted to each through hole. Wire holes 8 are arrayed on the wire board 7, the number of wire holes 8 is not less than fifteen, and a rubber block 9 is installed in each wire hole 8. The wire passing hole 10 is opened on the rubber block 9.
[0028] Each space is equipped with a wiring structure 5. The through holes are for embedding and installing the wiring board 7. The wiring board 7 is a cuboid with through wire holes 8. A rubber block 9 is installed in each wire hole 8. The through holes 10 are opened on the rubber blocks 9. When not in use, the through holes 10 are sealed with external rubber plugs to prevent dust from entering. The through holes 10 on the wiring board 7 are used for wiring of the internal modules of the cabinet 1, and the wiring can be arranged in sequence to avoid messy wiring.
[0029] In a preferred embodiment, each dovetail block 19 is covered with a rubber sleeve 21. The rubber sleeve 21 connects and seals the dovetail block 19 with the dovetail groove 20. Each bottom end of the insert plate 17 is covered with a rubber plate 18, which seals the gap between the insert plate 17 and the slot 16. Each of the four sides of the protrusion of the top plate 11 is covered with a rubber strip 22, which seals the gap between the frame, the side wall and the top plate 11.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, a dust cover (not shown) is also included. The dust cover is a shell with an open bottom, and its inner wall can fit against the outer surface of the four insert plates 17. The outer surface of the dust cover is flush with the outer surface of the cabinet. The dust cover serves two purposes: firstly, to protect the insert plates 17 when the cabinet does not need to be expanded; secondly, to temporarily place items larger than the gap between two insert plates into the four insert plates; and thirdly, to protect the top surface of the cabinet when a wiring structure is provided on the top surface. A rubber strip is preferably fixed to the bottom surface of the dust cover. The sides of the dust cover are detachably connected to the insert plates by screw fasteners.
[0031] In a preferred embodiment, the top cabinet 30 and the cabinet body have square cross-sections. This is to avoid restricting the orientation of the first assembly plate 12 of the top cabinet 30.
[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
