Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of enclosure technology, specifically to an enclosure structure that optimizes device storage space. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industrial equipment, communication base stations, power control systems and various precision instruments, equipment storage and transportation boxes serve as key structural carriers. Their spatial layout, structural stability and ease of use have a significant impact on the overall system's operating efficiency and reliability. According to announcement number CN208947828U, a foldable shipping box is disclosed. This technology discloses a technical solution including: "a rectangular base plate, with a left side plate and a right side plate on the left and right sides of the rectangular base plate, each of the left and right side plates including an upper side plate and a lower side plate, the lower side plates are hinged to the left and right sides of the rectangular base plate, and the upper side plates are hinged to the top of each of the two lower side plates, the upper and lower side plates are hinged by hinges; angle irons are vertically fixed at the four corners of the rectangular base plate, and the front and rear side plates are respectively hinged to the two front angle irons and the two rear angle irons; the front side plate, rear side plate, left side plate, and right side plate cooperate with the rectangular base plate to form a box structure, the upper ends of the front and rear side plates are provided with pin holes, the upper ends of the upper side plates of the left and right side plates are also provided with pin holes, and the adjacent pin holes cooperate with each other to stabilize the front, rear, left, and right side plates." In existing box-type assembly methods, it is common practice to use multiple independent bolts to fix the side panels to the frame. Such structures usually require multiple bolt mounting points around each side panel. During installation, operators need to align the holes one by one, insert the bolts, and tighten them step by step. In actual operation, if the bolt tightening sequence or torque is not properly controlled, it can easily lead to uneven stress on the side panels, resulting in local deformation or stress concentration. After long-term use, some bolts may loosen due to vibration, affecting the overall rigidity and sealing reliability of the box. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a cabinet structure that optimizes equipment storage space. It achieves multi-point linkage locking through single-point drive, and combines pre-positioning and complementary load-bearing structures to improve assembly and disassembly efficiency, overall rigidity and stability, and optimize space management.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a cabinet structure for optimizing equipment storage space, comprising a cabinet mechanism and used to constitute the main storage space of the equipment, the cabinet mechanism comprising: The fixing component includes two base plates arranged symmetrically on the top and bottom. A cross bracket is rotatably installed in the middle of the base plate. An arc-shaped connecting rod is pivotally connected to each of the four ends of the cross bracket. A connecting frame is pivotally connected to the other end of the arc-shaped connecting rod. Lock heads are fixed at both ends of the outer wall of the connecting frame. Two mounting holes are opened at each of the four ends of the top of the base plate. An internal hexagon bolt is threaded through one end of the base plate and the inner end of the internal hexagon bolt is rotatably connected to one of the connecting frames. Positioning holes are opened inside the four corners of the base plate. The assembly includes side plates provided between the four ends of the upper and lower base plates. Mounting heads are fixed on both sides of the upper and lower ends of the side plates and cooperate with mounting holes. Locking holes are opened inside the mounting heads and cooperate with lock heads. Locking strips are fixed on both ends of the side plates. The reinforcement components include uprights installed between the four corners of the upper and lower base plates.

[0005] Preferably, the reinforcement component further includes a slot formed on the connection surface between the upright and the side plate and a locking strip.

[0006] Preferably, the reinforcement component further includes positioning heads fixed at the upper and lower ends of the upright and cooperating with positioning holes.

[0007] Preferably, the fixing component further includes reinforcing ribs fixed at four ends inside the substrate, and the locking head and the reinforcing ribs are slidably installed through each other.

[0009] Preferably, the end of the lock head is wedge-shaped, and the corresponding entrance of the lock hole is provided with a matching guide slope.

[0010] Beneficial effects This invention provides a cabinet structure for optimizing device storage space. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages: 1. By rotating the hexagonal socket head cap screw, the connecting frame connected to it can be displaced, and this displacement is converted into the rotational motion of the cross bracket through the arc-shaped connecting rod. The rotation of the cross bracket then drives the other three sets of arc-shaped connecting rods to move synchronously with the connecting frame, ultimately causing all the lock heads to extend or retract synchronously within the base plate. When installing the side plate, align the mounting head on it with the mounting hole on the base plate and insert it. Then, through the above-mentioned linkage mechanism, the lock head is driven to insert into the lock hole of the mounting head to complete the locking. This enables rapid disassembly and assembly of the enclosure, improving assembly and maintenance efficiency. Furthermore, the modular components facilitate production, transportation, and partial replacement, optimizing the utilization and management of equipment storage space.

[0011] 2. Before locking with the lock head, the inherent locking strips at both ends of the side panel are pre-connected with the slots on the upright to provide radial positioning and guidance. This also enables the side panel to effectively resist shearing and deformation relative to the upright when the box is under stress, complementing the axial locking force of the lock head and jointly enhancing the overall structural rigidity and stability of the box.

[0014] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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.

[0015] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a cabinet structure for optimizing device storage space, including a cabinet mechanism 1 and used to constitute the main storage space of the device, the cabinet mechanism 1 including: The fixing component 11 includes two base plates 111 arranged symmetrically on the top and bottom. A cross bracket 112 is rotatably mounted in the middle of the base plate 111. Arc-shaped connecting rods 113 are pivotally connected to the four ends of the cross bracket 112. A connecting frame 114 is pivotally connected to the other end of the arc-shaped connecting rods 113. Lock heads 115 are fixed at both ends of the outer wall of the connecting frame 114. Two mounting holes 116 are opened at the four ends of the top of the base plate 111. An internal hexagon bolt 117 is threaded through one end of the base plate 111 and the inner end of the internal hexagon bolt 117 is rotatably connected to one of the connecting frames 114. Positioning holes 119 are opened inside the four corners of the base plate 111. Assembly component 12 includes side plates 121 disposed between the four ends of two upper and lower base plates 111. Mounting heads 122 are fixed on both sides of the upper and lower ends of the side plates 121 and cooperate with mounting holes 116. Locking holes 123 are opened inside the mounting heads 122 and cooperate with lock heads 115. Locking strips 124 are fixed on both ends of the side plates 121. The reinforcement component 13 includes uprights 131 installed between the four corners of the upper and lower base plates 111.

[0016] In this embodiment, rotating the hexagon socket bolt 117 drives the connecting frame 114 to move, which is then converted into the rotational motion of the cross bracket 112 via the arc-shaped connecting rod 113. The rotation of the cross bracket 112 then drives the other three sets of arc-shaped connecting rods 113 to move synchronously with the connecting frame 114, ultimately causing all the lock heads 115 to extend or retract synchronously within the base plate 111. When installing the side plate 121, the mounting head 122 on it is aligned with the mounting hole 116 on the base plate 111 and inserted. Then, the above-mentioned linkage mechanism drives the lock head 115 to insert into the lock hole 123 of the mounting head 122 to complete the locking. This achieves rapid disassembly and assembly of the enclosure, greatly improving assembly and maintenance efficiency. Furthermore, the modular components facilitate production, transportation, and partial replacement, optimizing the utilization and management of equipment storage space.

[0017] Specifically, the reinforcement component 13 also includes a slot 133 formed on the connection surface between the upright 131 and the side plate 121, which cooperates with the clip 124.

[0018] In this embodiment, before locking by the lock head 115, the inherent locking strips 124 at both ends of the side plate 121 are pre-connected with the locking grooves 133 on the upright frame 131 to perform radial positioning and guiding functions; this also enables the side plate 121 to effectively resist shearing and deformation relative to the upright frame 131 when the box is subjected to force, complementing the axial locking force of the lock head 115, and jointly enhancing the overall structural rigidity and stability of the box.

[0019] Specifically, the reinforcement component 13 also includes positioning heads 132 fixed at the upper and lower ends of the upright frame 131 and cooperating with positioning holes 119.

[0020] In this embodiment, the positioning heads 132 at the upper and lower ends of the support frame 131 are inserted into the positioning holes 119 inside the four corners of the upper and lower base plates 111 to connect the upper and lower base plates 111 into a high-rigidity integral spatial structure, which enhances the ability of the box to withstand vertical loads and resist torsional deformation, and provides core structural support for the entire box.

[0021] Specifically, the fixing component 11 also includes reinforcing ribs 118 fixed at four ends inside the base plate 111, and the locking head 115 and the reinforcing ribs 118 are slidably installed through each other.

[0022] In this embodiment, by providing guidance and constraint for the lock head 115 during movement, the lock head 115 is prevented from deflecting, jamming or wearing due to lateral force; and the reinforcing rib 118 itself also strengthens the rigidity and durability of the base plate 111 in the key stress area of ​​the locking point, avoiding deformation or damage to the base plate 111 under long-term and repeated locking force.

[0023] Specifically, a sealing strip is fixed to the side of the side plate 121 facing the inside of the box, and a sealing groove for accommodating and compressing the sealing strip is opened on the corresponding contact surfaces of the base plate 111 and the upright frame 131.

[0024] In this embodiment, when the lock head 115 performs the locking action and pulls the side plate 121 toward the base plate 111 and the stand 131, the sealing strip pre-fixed on the inner side of the side plate 121 is simultaneously pressed into the sealing grooves opened on the corresponding surfaces of the base plate 111 and the stand 131; so that the elastic sealing strip undergoes uniform compression deformation in the sealed space, thereby tightly filling all assembly gaps between the side plate 121 and the frame.

[0025] Specifically, the end of the lock head 115 is wedge-shaped, and the corresponding entrance of the lock hole 123 is provided with a matching guide slope.

[0026] In this embodiment, when the lock head 115 extends into the lock hole 123 under the action of the drive mechanism, the contact between the wedge surface and the inclined surface will automatically convert the linear forward movement of the lock head 115 into a small radial correction force. This force will guide the lock head 115 to be accurately aligned before it fully enters the lock hole 123 and simultaneously generate a pre-tightening effect that pulls the side plate 121 toward the base plate 111.

[0027] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: First, each upright frame 131 is precisely inserted into the positioning holes 119 at the four corners of the upper and lower base plates 111 through the positioning heads 132 at its upper and lower ends, thus initially constructing the vertical load-bearing frame of the box; then, the clips 124 at both ends of the side plate 121 are aligned and embedded into the slots 133 on the adjacent upright frame 131 to achieve radial pre-positioning of the side plate 121; at the same time, the mounting heads 122 on the upper and lower sides of the side plate 121 are aligned with the mounting holes 116 on the base plate 111 and inserted. Then, using a tool, the internal hex bolt 117 located at one end of the base plate 111 is rotated. This bolt drives the connecting bracket 114 directly connected to it to produce a linear displacement. This displacement is converted into the rotational motion of the cross bracket 112 through the arc-shaped connecting rod 113 pivotally connected to it. The rotation of the cross bracket 112 then synchronously drives the other three sets of arc-shaped connecting rods 113 and the connecting bracket 114 to move, ultimately causing all the lock heads 115 to extend synchronously from inside the base plate 111 under the guidance of the reinforcing rib 118. During the extension process, the wedge-shaped surface at the end of the lock head 115 contacts the guide slope at the entrance of the lock hole 123 on the mounting head 122. The slope automatically guides the lock head 115 to slide precisely into the depth of the lock hole 123, and in this process, a preload force is generated to pull the side plate 121 toward the base plate 111, eliminating assembly gaps. When the locking action is completed, the lock head 115 is completely locked, and at the same time the sealing strip on the inside of the side plate 121 is fully pressed into the sealing groove on the base plate 111 and the stand 131 to form an effective seal. During disassembly, rotating the hex bolt 117 in the reverse direction will cause all the lock heads 115 to retract synchronously through the linkage mechanism, thereby releasing the lock on the side plate 121 and allowing it to be removed.
