[0030] Figure 1 A three-dimensional structural diagram of the power distribution box without a camera provided by this utility model is shown. Figure 2 A three-dimensional structural diagram of the power distribution box for easy camera installation provided by this utility model is shown. Figure 5 A three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of the base provided by this utility model is shown in the figure. Figure 7 A side sectional view of the base provided by this utility model is illustrated in the schematic diagram. (See attached diagram.) Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the power distribution box for easy camera installation includes a power distribution box 100 and a base 200. The base 200 is located outside the power distribution box 100, and a cavity is formed between the base 200 and the power distribution box 100. The side of the base 200 away from the power distribution box 100 is used to install the camera 300. The base 200 is provided with a first cable outlet 210 communicating with the cavity. The power distribution box 100 is provided with a second cable outlet 110 communicating with the cavity. The cable inside the power distribution box 100 enters the cavity through the second cable outlet 110. A sealing element is sleeved on the surface of the cable, and the sealing element is sealed to the surface of the cable to prevent water from entering the interior of the power distribution box 100 along the cable.

[0031] The present invention provides a power distribution box for easy camera installation. A cavity is provided between the base 200 and the power distribution box 100. A first cable outlet 210 communicating with the cavity is provided in the base 200, and a second cable outlet 110 communicating with the cavity is provided in the power distribution box 100. Cables inside the power distribution box 100 enter the cavity through the second cable outlet 110 and are then connected to the camera 300. This arrangement effectively solves the problem of exposed cables by placing them inside the cavity. Furthermore, by covering the surface of the cables with a sealing element that seals against the cable surface, the sealing element prevents water from entering the power distribution box 100 along the cables, effectively improving the waterproof performance of the power distribution box 100.

[0032] The second cable outlet 110 is located on the side wall, and its central axis is on the same straight line as the central axis of the first cable outlet 210. The second cable outlet 110 is used to allow cables inside the distribution box 100 to enter the cavity through the second cable outlet 110. Preferably, the inner diameter of the second cable outlet 110 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first cable outlet 210. When the camera 300 is not installed, the cable connector 290 can be prefabricated and stored in the cavity, protected by the base 200 and the waterproof cover 230. When the camera 300 needs to be installed, the installer does not need to perform complicated wiring operations on site. They only need to pull the connector 290 out of the first cable outlet 210 and connect it to the camera 300. This not only simplifies the construction steps and shortens the installation time, but also improves the installation efficiency.

[0033] It should be noted that the cable can be a network cable, a power cable, or a combination of both.

[0034] Continue reading Figure 1 In one embodiment of this utility model, the distribution box 100 includes a distribution box body 120 and a door 130. The distribution box body 120 is rectangular, but it can also be a regular polygon or other shapes. Openings are provided on both the front and rear faces of the distribution box body 120, and the shapes of the openings are adapted to the shape of the door 130. Alternatively, openings can be provided only on the front or rear face of the distribution box body 120. The door 130 is disposed at the opening and hinged to the distribution box body 120. A latch is provided on the door 130 to facilitate opening and closing.

[0035] The main body 120 of the distribution box is equipped with a base 200 on both sides. Optional, see reference. Figure 1 As shown, two bases 200 are provided on the left side of the main body 120 of the distribution box, and the two bases 200 on the left side are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction. Similarly, two bases 200 are provided on the right side of the main body 120 of the distribution box, and the two bases 200 on the right side are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, and the two bases 200 on the right side are symmetrically arranged with the two bases 200 on the left side. Of course, the arrangement of the bases 200 is not limited to this. Bases 200 can be provided only on the left or right side of the main body 120 of the distribution box, or one base 200 can be provided on each of the two bases on the left and right sides of the main body 120 of the distribution box, or more than two bases 200 can be provided on each of the two bases on the left and right sides of the main body 120 of the distribution box.

[0036] The base 200 is welded to or integrally formed with the side wall of the distribution box body 120. The cavity is located between the base 200 and the side wall of the distribution box body 120. The cavity is formed by the base 200 and the side wall of the distribution box body 120 at a certain distance, and the cavity extends in the vertical direction. The cavity not only provides hidden space for internal wiring, but also forms an efficient vertical heat dissipation channel together with the base 200 and the side wall. Figure 8 A schematic diagram of the heat dissipation duct provided by this utility model is shown in the figure. Figure 8 As shown, the cavity, together with the air inlet 250 at the bottom of the base 200 and the air outlet 260 on the side wall, constitute a highly efficient vertical heat dissipation duct. This heat dissipation duct utilizes the natural convection principle that hot air, being less dense, rises. Hot air rises along the cavity and is discharged from the upper air outlet 260, while external cool air is drawn in through the lower air inlet 250, forming a continuous air circulation. This effectively dissipates heat from the distribution box 100, ensuring the stable operation of the internal equipment. In this embodiment, the width of the upper end of the cavity and the width of the lower end (the cavity is within...) Figure 8 The dimensions in the left and right directions are equal. Of course, the width of the upper end of the cavity can also be smaller than the width of the lower end. In this way, after the airflow enters from the bottom of the cavity, the air is compressed during the airflow as it rises. The airflow velocity will increase significantly, and the accelerated airflow enhances the heat exchange efficiency and can be quickly discharged from the air outlet 260.

[0037] See Figure 8 In one embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the base 200 is inclined, and the bottom of the base 200 is provided with multiple air inlets 250 arranged in an array. Multiple air outlets 260 are provided on the sidewall, also arranged in an array. The cavity, air inlets 250, and air outlets 260 are connected to form a heat dissipation duct. During operation, cooler external air is drawn in through the air inlets 250 at the bottom. After absorbing heat generated inside the distribution box 100 within the cavity, the air temperature rises, the air density decreases, and the air naturally rises. Finally, it is discharged through the air outlets 260 located above the sidewall, forming a continuous air circulation. Therefore, it effectively cools the electronic components inside the distribution box 100 without the need for active cooling components such as fans. This not only saves costs and energy consumption but also avoids the risk of equipment overheating and damage due to fan failure, improving the long-term operational stability of the product.

[0038] Furthermore, since the air outlet 260 is located on the side wall, this bottom-intake and side-exhaust structure forms a labyrinthine heat dissipation duct, requiring the airflow to change direction as it moves upward through the cavity before it can be exhausted. The labyrinthine heat dissipation duct acts as a natural physical barrier against rainwater and dust in the external environment, making it difficult for rainwater to splash directly into the air inlet 250. Even if a small amount of moisture enters, it is difficult for it to travel along a tortuous path into the interior of the distribution box 100. In addition, by placing the air inlet 250 at the bottom of the base 200, even if condensation or a small amount of moisture intrudes under extreme weather conditions, it will flow along the slope under gravity and be discharged from the bottom air inlet 250, preventing internal water accumulation.

[0039] Continue reading Figure 8 In one embodiment of this utility model, a first guide vane 140 is provided on the side wall of the vent 260 away from the cavity. The first guide vane 140 blocks the vent 260, and a certain distance is maintained between the first guide vane 140 and the side wall. After external water vapor or dust comes out of the vent 260, it must first enter horizontally to the left, and then move upward against gravity to reach the actual vent position. This tortuous path fundamentally eliminates the possibility of rainwater splashing in and dust accumulation.

[0040] In one embodiment of this utility model, a second guide vane (not shown) is provided inside the cavity. The second guide vane is horizontally arranged and located above the air inlet 250. The air inlet 250 is located within the vertical projection range of the second guide vane. After water enters the cavity through the air inlet 250, it is blocked by the second guide vane and cannot directly enter the cavity. The blocked water will fall back down under the action of gravity and be discharged from the air inlet 250 along the inclined surface at the bottom of the base 200, ensuring that water cannot directly enter the cavity.

[0041] See Figure 7In one embodiment of this utility model, the sealing element fitted onto the surface of the cable includes a waterproof plug 220. The waterproof plug 220 is made of a flexible material, such as rubber, silicone, or other flexible materials. A central hole is provided in the middle of the waterproof plug 220, and the waterproof plug 220 is fitted onto the surface of the cable through the central hole to form a second waterproof structure. The shape of the waterproof plug 220 is adapted to the shape of the second outlet hole 110. In this embodiment, the waterproof plug 220 is circular, but it can also be elliptical or other shapes. The waterproof plug 220 is embedded in the second outlet hole 110 and seals against the inner wall of the second outlet hole 110. The elasticity and plasticity of the waterproof plug 220 allow it to deform moderately during installation, thereby forming a tight interference fit with the rigid inner wall of the second outlet hole 110, effectively filling any manufacturing tolerances that may exist between them and improving the reliability of the seal. In addition, the waterproof rubber plug 220 also serves to fix the connector 290, so that the connector 290 is in the cavity, which facilitates subsequent installation and use.

[0042] It should be noted that connector 290 is used to connect the cable to the camera 300. When the cable is a network cable, connector 290 is a network cable connector, i.e., an RJ45 connector; when the cable is a power cord, connector 290 is a power cord connector. The shape of the waterproof plug 220 is adapted to the shape of the second cable outlet 110. In this embodiment, the waterproof plug 220 is circular, but it can also be other shapes. The waterproof plug 220 is embedded in the second cable outlet 110 and seals against the inner wall of the second cable outlet 110. When the cable passes through the waterproof plug 220, its flexible material can tightly cover the outer surface of the cable, forming a seal and effectively preventing moisture, rainwater, and dust from entering the distribution box 100 along the cable surface.

[0043] In one embodiment of this utility model, the outer peripheral surface of the waterproof rubber stopper 220 is provided with an annular groove. The edge of the second outlet hole 110 is embedded in the annular groove and seals against the inner wall of the annular groove. This installation method achieves axial limiting and mechanical locking of the waterproof rubber stopper 220, effectively preventing the stopper from loosening due to cable dragging, internal and external air pressure differences, or long-term vibration. Furthermore, with this installation method, the intrusion path of moisture or dust is no longer a simple straight line, but must bypass the tortuous and circuitous path formed by the inner wall of the groove. This greatly increases the intrusion resistance, equivalent to forming a labyrinthine sealing barrier, thereby effectively increasing the sealing area and further improving the sealing performance of the waterproof rubber stopper 220.

[0044] In one embodiment of this utility model, the outer peripheral surface of the waterproof rubber plug 220 is provided with an annular step. The annular step fits against the side of the sidewall away from the cavity. When the cable is pulled outward from the second cable outlet 110, the annular step plays a limiting role and can also prevent the rubber plug from loosening due to cable dragging, internal and external air pressure difference or long-term vibration.

[0045] See Figure 8 In one embodiment of this utility model, the top of the base 200 is set as an inclined surface, which can quickly drain rainwater and prevent water accumulation on the top of the base 200.

[0046] Figure 4 A three-dimensional structural diagram of a power distribution box for easy installation of another type of camera, provided by this utility model, is illustrated below. Figure 4 and Figure 7 In one embodiment of this utility model, a plurality of waterproof rivet nuts 270 are provided on the side of the base 200 facing the distribution box 100. The waterproof rivet nuts 270 are provided with first screw holes. The positions of the first screw holes correspond one-to-one with the screw holes on the side of the cable box 280 facing the base 200. The first screw holes are used to install the cable box 280. Setting the first screw holes on the waterproof rivet nuts 270 can prevent rainwater from entering the cavity through the first screw holes.

[0047] The cable concealment box 280 is hollow inside, with flat sides for easy connection to the base 200 and camera 300. The cable concealment box 280 can be cuboid, cylindrical, or other shapes, depending on the type of camera 300. Both sides of the cable concealment box 280 have through holes for cables to pass through. The side of the cable concealment box 280 facing away from the base 200 has a second screw hole adapted to the camera. The cable concealment box 280 has two beneficial effects: Firstly, it acts as a universal adapter platform for standardization and modularization. The screw hole on the side of the cable concealment box facing the base 200 is identical to the first screw hole on the base 200. The base 200 and the distribution box 100 are mass-produced as standard parts, while the second screw hole on the side of the cable concealment box facing away from the base 200 can be designed in various specifications to adapt to different brands and models of cameras. This greatly enhances the product's versatility and compatibility. When it is necessary to replace the camera 300 with a different mounting hole, the user only needs to replace the low-cost cable management box 280, without having to replace the entire power distribution box 100. This not only reduces the large number of redundant mounting holes that need to be reserved on the base 200 to accommodate different devices, but also provides great flexibility for the product's later upgrades and maintenance.

[0048] On the other hand, after the tail wire of the camera 300 is connected to the cable inside the base 200, its connector 290 and part of the cable can be stored inside the cable box 280, avoiding cable exposure. This not only improves aesthetics, but more importantly, it brings substantial improvements in safety and reliability: the hidden cable and connector 290 can effectively avoid the problems of cable sheath aging and connector 290 oxidation caused by wind, sun and rain, and can prevent malicious damage or pulling, thereby ensuring the long-term stability of data transmission and power supply, and significantly extending the service life of the entire monitoring system.

[0049] In one embodiment of this utility model, a second sealing layer (not shown) is provided on the side of the cable concealment box 280 facing the base 200. The second sealing layer is in a sealing fit with the cable concealment box 280 and the base 200. The material of the second sealing layer is waterproof foam, but it can also be other materials, such as rubber. Providing a second sealing layer can improve the sealing performance between the cable concealment box 280 and the base 200.

[0050] Figure 3 An exploded view of the electrical distribution box without a camera provided by this utility model is shown in the illustration. (See attached image.) Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one embodiment of this utility model, when the camera 300 is not installed, a waterproof cover 230 is provided on the side of the base 200 away from the distribution box 100. The waterproof cover 230 is detachably connected to the base 200 and has a rectangular sheet structure, specifically determined according to the shape of the base 200. The waterproof cover 230 covers the first cable outlet 210. The waterproof cover 230 is used to prevent rainwater or dust from entering the cavity through the first cable outlet 210. The beneficial effects of providing a detachable waterproof cover 230 are reflected in the following two aspects: Firstly, when the camera 300 is formally installed, the installer can quickly and conveniently remove the waterproof cover 230 and directly perform wiring operations, greatly simplifying the on-site installation process and shortening the operation time; secondly, when the camera 300 needs to be temporarily disassembled for maintenance or replacement, the waterproof cover 230 can be reinstalled, providing reusable protection for the exposed connector 290 and avoiding the complicated operation of temporary wrapping.

[0051] Figure 6 A three-dimensional structural schematic diagram of the first sealing layer provided by this utility model is shown in the figure. Figure 6In one embodiment of this utility model, a first sealing layer 240 is provided on the side of the waterproof cover 230 facing the base 200. The first sealing layer 240 is in a sealing fit with the waterproof cover 230 and the base 200. The center of the first sealing layer 240 is provided with a circular hole and multiple through holes. When the central axis of the circular hole coincides with the central axis of the first outlet hole 210, the through holes are aligned with the corresponding first screw holes to facilitate screw installation. The material of the first sealing layer 240 is waterproof foam, but it can also be other materials, such as rubber. When the waterproof cover 230 is installed on the base 200, the first sealing layer 240 is compressed and undergoes elastic deformation, which can effectively compensate for the manufacturing tolerances and surface unevenness that may exist on the contact surfaces. In this way, a continuous and reliable sealing barrier can be formed between the waterproof cover 230 and the base 200, which can block the intrusion of wind, rain, moisture and fine dust. Its sealing effect is far superior to direct contact without a sealing layer. It ensures that the connector 290 is absolutely clean and dry when the camera 300 is not installed, and avoids serious failures such as poor contact and signal attenuation when the metal contacts are exposed to humid air or contaminated by dust, which may occur when the camera 300 is connected.

[0052] In another embodiment of this utility model, a sealing ring is provided on the edge of the waterproof cover 230 facing the base 200. The sealing ring is sealed and fitted with the waterproof cover 230 and the base 200, which can also play the role of waterproofing and dustproofing.

[0053] See Figure 3 In one embodiment of this utility model, a through hole is provided on the waterproof cover 230, and a screw is installed in the through hole. The screw is threaded into the first screw hole, thus enabling the waterproof cover 230 and the cable management box 280 to share the same first screw hole for fixation, further reducing the number of first screw holes on the base 200. Functional switching at different stages of the product is achieved by utilizing the same set of first screw holes. During the equipment pre-installation stage, this set of first screw holes is used to fix the waterproof cover 230; during the formal installation stage, after the waterproof cover 230 is removed, the first screw holes are used to fix the cable management box 280. The entire process eliminates the need for two separate sets of mounting holes on the base 200, greatly simplifying the structure of the base 200 and reducing manufacturing costs for processes such as drilling and riveting. Furthermore, the openings on the base 200 are weak points in waterproofing; reducing the number of holes directly equates to reducing potential leakage paths, thereby significantly improving the structural strength and waterproof reliability of the entire cavity.

[0054] In another embodiment of this utility model, one of the waterproof cover 230 and the base 200 is provided with a buckle (not shown), and the other of the waterproof cover 230 and the base 200 is provided with a slot (not shown). The slot and the buckle engage in a snap-fit, which enables the waterproof cover 230 to be quickly installed and removed. Compared with screw connections, the engagement of the slot and the buckle avoids the stripping or wear problems that may be caused by repeated disassembly and maintenance, and ensures the reliability and reusability of the connection.

[0055] See Figure 1 In one embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the distribution box 100 is provided with mounting holes for mounting cameras. Specifically, the bottom of the distribution box body 120 is provided with mounting holes, and one of the cameras 300 is mounted in the mounting holes at the bottom of the distribution box body 120. Since the distribution box 100 shields the camera 300, no waterproof structure is required.

[0056] Continue reading Figure 1 Two cameras 300 are installed on the left side of the main body 120 of the distribution box, with the two cameras 300 arranged at intervals along the vertical direction. Similarly, two cameras 300 are installed on the right side of the main body 120 of the distribution box, with the two cameras 300 arranged at intervals along the vertical direction. The two cameras 300 on the right side are symmetrically arranged with the two cameras 300 on the left side. Thus, a distribution box 100 can accommodate at least five cameras 300, effectively expanding the user's usage needs.
