Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of junction boxes for electric heating cables, and specifically to an explosion-proof three-way junction box for electric heating cables. Background Technology
[0002] An explosion-proof junction box for electric heating tape is an electrical connection device specifically designed for flammable and explosive hazardous environments. Its core function is to safely and reliably connect the electric heating tape to the power supply in such special locations, or to complete the branching and convergence of the electric heating tape, while ensuring that the entire connection part is in a good sealed and explosion-proof protection state.
[0003] Currently, common explosion-proof junction boxes for electric heating cables present certain safety hazards and operational inconveniences in practical use. Due to the unique structure of the electric heating cable, its outer insulation layer must be stripped during wiring, exposing multiple strands of copper wire inside, which are then connected to the corresponding terminals inside the box. During this process, the multiple exposed copper wires are intertwined in a confined space, making them highly susceptible to short circuits due to contact or close proximity, potentially leading to electrical sparks or even explosions. To mitigate this hazard, existing technology typically involves manually wrapping the exposed areas with insulating tape. However, this method not only has limited insulation effectiveness and is prone to insulation failure due to tape aging or poor adhesion, but also suffers from uneven wrapping thickness and adhesive residue, making it difficult to completely eliminate the possibility of leakage and short circuits.
[0004] In addition, this insulation method also results in messy and disorderly cable arrangement inside the box, which not only affects the effective use of internal space, but also causes significant inconvenience for subsequent troubleshooting, line testing and maintenance replacement.
[0005] Therefore, providing an explosion-proof junction box for electric heating cables that is structurally sound, reliably insulated, easy to install, and convenient to maintain has become a pressing technical problem to be solved in this field. Utility Model Content
[0006] The present invention provides an explosion-proof three-way junction box for electric heating cables to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0008] An explosion-proof three-way junction box for electric heating tape includes a box body and wiring ports disposed on three sides of the box body. A first terminal, a second terminal, and a third terminal are fixedly embedded in the inner rear wall of the box body. There are two first terminals arranged horizontally. There are two second terminals arranged vertically. There is one third terminal located on one side of the inner rear wall of the box body.
[0009] The rear wall of the box is further provided with a first partition, a second partition, and a third partition; the first partition is located at the bottom of one of the first terminals; the second partition is disposed between two second terminals, and is U-shaped and partially surrounds the upper second terminal; the third partition is disposed between the third terminal and the lower second terminal.
[0010] The two first terminals are connected by a first copper busbar, and the two second terminals are connected by a second copper busbar; both the first and second copper busbars are embedded inside the rear wall of the housing.
[0011] Preferably, a sealing cavity is formed at the connection between the wiring port and the housing, and a sealing block is embedded in the sealing cavity.
[0012] Preferably, the first partition, the second partition, and the third partition are integrally injection molded with the box body.
[0013] Preferably, the first copper busbar and the second copper busbar are spatially and electrically isolated from each other.
[0014] Beneficial effects
[0015] Through the above technical solution, this utility model has the following significant beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. High safety, effectively eliminating the risk of short circuits:
[0017] By setting a first partition, a second partition, and a third partition inside the box, exposed copper wires of different circuits or phases can be effectively physically isolated during wiring, fundamentally avoiding short circuits caused by cables being close to or in contact with each other, and greatly improving safety in flammable and explosive environments.
[0018] 2. High structural integration and reliable insulation performance:
[0019] The first and second copper busbars are pre-embedded inside the rear wall of the housing, achieving a fully enclosed internal connection of the main conductive circuit. This not only eliminates the need for exposed wire connections and removes the risk of discharge and short circuits at that location, but also makes the overall structure more compact and the insulation performance more stable and reliable, far superior to the traditional method of wrapping with insulating tape.
[0020] 3. The internal layout is well-organized, facilitating installation and maintenance:
[0021] The partition structure rationally divides the internal space, making wiring operations clear and cable arrangement orderly, completely changing the previous messy state inside the junction box. This design greatly facilitates the initial installation and wiring, as well as subsequent inspection, maintenance, and even replacement work, effectively reducing operational difficulty and labor costs.
